DISEASE GERMS STICK.
Hence 1t Is Almost Impossible to Have
Really Clean Hands.


Really Clean Hands.
That the s!ovenly habits or i'll health
of the cooks and walters who serve us
in dining cars. hotels, restaurants and
our own homes may be an even great
er menace to our health than defective
plumbing is the fact brought out by
some interesting Investigations made
by Surgeon Cummins of the British
army.
1t used to be thought that if our serv-
ants hands-and our own-were wash
cd with reasonable frequency we We're
rafe. but DR. Cummins shows that even
the most scrupulOuS cleansing will not
relieve hands that have been in contact
with disease germs from the liability
of injecting others. In short, DR.. Cum
Minis declares that so long as we live
in this world Of dirt and microbes our
hands can never be really clean.
To prove his contention DR.. Cummins
dipped the tip of his forefnger in
liquid containing millions Of typhoid
bacilli. The finger was next rinsed in
an antiseptic solution. then in very
cold water and then in water that was
almost boiling. After all this cleansing
it was washed in small quantity Of
sterile water. This water when ana
lyzed showed no less than 313 colonies
of typhoid bacilli.
Not satisfied with this discouraging
proof Of the futility of clean hands, the
doctor proceeded to soak his infected
finger tip in pure alcohol. Then he
washed it again in sterile water. This
time the analysis Of the water revealed
four colonies of typhoid bacilli.
Another experiment made by DR..
Cummins was to rest typhoid laden
finger tip for just an instant on the
surface of a bowl of soup. The soup
was then allowed to stand for twenty
four hours. When finally analysed it
revealed nearly 10000 typhoid bacilff to
every cubic fnch.-New York Ameri-
