telephoned to the board. From the
talk Yak had with whoever answered
the telephone he imagined that the
antitoxin was to be hurried to the
Bard home.
Early in the afternoon the mother
again came to the drug store. The
antitoxin had not arrived. And the
child was growing weaker Yak call
ed up the board again
About four o'clock in the afternoon
a wagon from the Board of Health
arrived. But the physicians in charge
discovered that owing to the fact that
one of Fanny's sisters had measles
Fanny could not be admitted to the
Isolation Hospital, but would have to
fight for her life at home.
They advised the father to call up
the Durant Hospital. But the Durant
Hospital officials referred him to the
Board of Health.
Meanwhile the child was putting up
hopeless struggle for life. In the
physician came to the house and at
the urging of the father administered
antitoxin. That appeared to end the
boards interest in the case.
Monday morning the child was
worse. The mother, frantic with
grief, rushed into Zak's store and
asked himto do something. He call
ed DR.. c. A. Lapin, 1884 w. Twelfth
street, and begged him to look at the
child. The doctor came and found
the child in the last stages of the dis
ease. He called up the Board of
Health and said that the child must
have antitoxin.
At midnight he was told that if he
wanted antitoxin he's have to 90
down to the board rooms in the City
Hall and get\it. Quick action was
necessary. ...

10000 units of antitoxin was the
smallest amount that could save the
child When the druggist at Ka-
delec's discovered it was a charity
case he would only give 1000 units,
one-tenth of the amount prescribed
Under this the child rallied slightly
But the next morning she was dead
DR.. Lapin is quite open in his
charges against the Board of Health.
He accuses the board of criminal neg
lect.
The doctor says that not only did
Druggist Kadelec refuse to give the
proper amount of antitoxin, but that
the only time the Board of Health
physician administered antitoXin he
gave only 5000 units, when any doc
tor could have told that the child
needed at least 10000 units.
The County Board may be drawn
into it by Commissioner Peter Bart
zen, who is said to be ready to pre-
sent a demand that the county COM
missioners investigate aud determine
why the child was barred from the
Isolation Hospital on the slim excuse
that one of her sisters had measles.

also be under fire. 1t is claimed that
a physician from that Office went
over and looked at the child and left
without giving any aid.
