1 laborer who, while working in a camp ] in New York, caught typhoid. No doctor, no health officer was there to tell his friends what precautions which furnished five villages with water. The neglect of one man 1 brought about an outbreak of typhoid ] fever which caused not less than 40 cases and deaths.
 i On July 29, 1913, a young man sit ting against the water tank on the upper deck of the Mississippi steamer G. w. Hill, suddenly heard water rum ming into the tank when the boat was near if not on the sewer outlets Of the city of Davenport, Ia. The day was very hot and the passengers help ed themselves liberalIy to this water, although many noticed it's turbidity and others found trash sticks in it. The result was that 800 of the 1,200 excursionists from Clinton, la, on that day had either diarrhoea or typhoid j Typhoid is an every day problem only where it is allowed to become one. In fact, some of our cities have accomplished, if not as much as the best European cities, at least as much as some cities across the ocean. It. is pity that this roll of honor should be so short Paterson, for instance, i could boast in 1910 Of Fl deaths for every 100000 tinhabitants; Chicago, where 174 people out of every 100, 600 , were Snatched by, typhoid In 1S9l,i halS been slowly but steadily lowering it's mortality until it now approaches European figures; while Bridgeport had in 1910 the distinction of being the solitary American city with more than 100000 inhabitants having a ty phoid death rate of less than 5. But Baltimore, Minneapolis, Kansas City and Omaha had more typhoid in 1910 than in s190O-4. Il Something is url- ! idoubtedly wrong somewhere when Providence had in 1910 twice as much l typhoid as it had in 1907, and Mill crease from 13.1 in 1904 to 45.7 in 1910. The death rate from typhoid has in number of states, as Colorado, Indiana, Maine and Maryland, either remained stationary during the last three or four years or else actually and Wisconsin.
 We have in this country a national lassociation for the prevention of tu- berculosis. A similar association has been organized recently to combat 3raneer. The time seems ripe for the dcreation of league against typhoid fever. It's membership should com i prise the entire nation, and it's creed announced in a: few lines:
 Typhoid fever is disease of dirt. Unclean habits cause typhoid fever. 7. Be, therefore, clean; and help. others
 toFDe clean
 It is the habit of our people to think only in scareheads. Important questions are Ignored until they loom big as mountains in the public eye.
 Not long ago a vague rumor of out rages suffered by 9 few Americans in Mexico was enough to make people task for immediate war. A war against an enemy which attacks every year hundreds Of thousands of our people and kills thousands of them would be more justified. For every life saved from typhoid, it has been proved that two other lives are saved. A cam pnign against typhoid is therefore an assault on every ailment that preys on man.

Purpose Of Insurance

A Missouri court recently decided that where an automobile insurance roicy is not specific in it's language, the holder of the policy is entitled to the benefit of the doubt. The specific case involved the following sentence in an insurance policy; that s.tf1e lat. ter should indemnify the car owners Tor damage caused solely by collision with another object, excluding, how ever all loss or damage caused by striking a portion Of the roadbed. 's The car Of the plaintiff was damaged by collision with granitoid gutter ing, and the insurance company was ordered to make good the loss, both by the lower and higher courts. The decision in favor of the motorists stated that, while there may be some doubts as to whether or not the gut tering be part of the roadbed-the company contended that it was-the owner who had paid consideration for indemnity should get the latter, if the language of the policy be in the least doubtful: as the language of pol icies must be so constructed as to eff fectuate insurance and not to thwart it.
