HOW PToMAINE is AVOIDED.
Care in PURCHASE and Keeping Of
Meats Is a SAFEGUARD.

How Ia avoid ptomainc poisoning :,
the summer months is told in bulle
tin just issued by the New York hcaltl
department. 1t says that the common.
est form of meat poisoning, Gale,
ptomaine, Is due To eating the meat o
diseased animals. 1t is impossible
To detect the poisonous bacteria with.
out meteorological examination. ow.
ing To the fact that they do not cause
putreiaction. In the greater major
lily of cases cooking renders this meat
harmless. but there are cases on rec
ord where the bacteria have survived
causing Illness and death.
Summer ptomaine or meat poison
ing is the most common form of the
disease in the city. Owing To the in
creased temperature the bacteria rap
idly increase and the only remedy is
To exercise particular care i'm keep
Ing meats The health department
says: Take proper care of the rcfrig-
orator and the refrigerator will take
proper care of the meat"
Warming is given against badly con-
structed ice chests. For every house,
wife the following "donts" are given:
Don't keep meat in the refrigcra-
tor unless it is properly iced
Don't omit TO clean the refrigera-
tor frequently, using strong hot soda
solution.
Don't use meat unless it is absolute
~ fresh; never attempt to freshen it
by washing with salt. soda, etc.
Don't buy chopped meats or saus-
age unless absolutely sure that it S
fresh
Finally. don't buy from any butcher
unless sure that his meats are fresh
and handled in sanitary manner.
Canned foodstuffs are more univcr-
sally used in summer than at any 9TH
ertime Of the year and especial warn
ing is given against using them un-
less absolutely sure that the contents
are good. The form of poisoning from
bad canned goods is known as "botu-
ism or sausage poisoning" and is
very deadly, with n mortality rate ~

etc. Symptoms of the disease
are partial or total paralysis. double
vision painful swallowing. loss of voice
and interference with heart and res
piration.
With care i'm buying canned goods
there is no danger of this virulent
poisoning. II usually happens that the
steam sterilization which is part of the
canning process kills all microbes. but
now and then owing To carelcssness OF
the canning machinery not working
properly. a few cans will reach the
market containing living microbes.
These multiply and form gas that

The Ways of Thrift
Warnings: Thrift the Need"
Copyrisht 1914. Americas Society for Thrift.

The relation of the rising cost of
living as result of the war to indi-
vidual and family thrift, and the need
for united effort In systematizing
thrift, was emphasized by Governor
Carey of Wyoming, q member Of the
Advisory Council Of the American
Society for Thrift, In RESPONSE to the
advance outline submitted to the
Council Of Thrift months campaign
Ing In October.
III anything can be done to awak-
en- the knowledge Of the importance
Of thrift and the avoidance of extrav-
agance II would be benefit to the
world. I have not much sympathy
with the effort to keep down prices,
for the price Of one thing regulates
In a certain measure indirectly the
cost OF others. II II costs q good deal
to live wages are necessarily higher.
81 often think In this age II is very
difficult to restrain people In their ex-
travagances. Where can you com
mence and where can you end In your
endeavors In behalf of thrift? We
know its value; we feel its value; yet
we all appear to have ceased to be
frugal, and even IL we see the rem
edy. we fail to avail ourselves OF It."
