PASSES DISEASE
TO FORTY OTHERS
Oak Park Chicago Suburb, Traces
Epidemic to Case of a Ty-
phoid Mary.
FOLLOWS A HIGH SCHOOL FEAST
Woman Who Worked in the Kitchen
Found to Be Chronic Carrier
of the Germs,

Chicago, July 15.-Oak Park has a
Typhoid Mary" The epidemic Of
fever which has been sweeping
through the western suburb ever since
the high school banquet more than a
month ago yesterday was traced 10 a
woman carrier who handled the food
in the school restaurant She is Mrs
Mary Burke, who lives at Fifth ave
nue. and Twelfth street.
Under orders from the state board
Of health she was removed yesterday
to the Oak Park hospital and placed
under police surveillance. A doctor
from the state board will arrive in
Oak Park today 10 investigate further.
A few days after the high school
banquet was held the first case of ty-
phoid fever was reported. a few days
later the list of patients was swelled
An average of a new case a day has
been maintained until now 40 persons
are confined to their homes and the
hospitals with the disease.
DR.. Leslie W. Bebee, health commits
sioBer, began an investigation. Ty-
pbOid fever is transmitted through
food or water. Oak Park uses the
same water as Chicago, and as there
are few cases in Chicago, Or. Bebee
decided the epidemic must have been
started by impure food. He investi-
gated and found that practically all
those afflicted had attended the high
school banquet
Doctor Germ Detective.
There were only four or five per
sons in the high school restaurant
who came in contact with the food
These were all pupils except Mrs Burke.
She was employed as a sort of dish
washer and waitress She prepared
much OF the raw material On Tues
day DR.. Bebee went to her home and
took a culture which was submitted
to laboratory test. The analysis
showed her to be a typhoid carrier,
and DR., Bebee and Fred W. Prfngle.

graphed the state board of health for
advice.
They were instructed to have the
woman taken into custody at once and
held until an official of the board ar
rived Dr. Bcbee, accompanied by a
went to Mrs. Burke's home.
but she had disappeared They wait
ed several hours, however, and she
finally returned. She was taken to
the hospital and placed under guard.
Has No Fever.
A typhoid carrier is a person who
carries the germs Of the disease in his
or her system without having the fe-
YER and attendant symptoms. Some
times such persons carry the germs
for years and in such cases are liable
to transmit to any one whose food or
water they come into contact with. /
Often they are persons who have had /
the fever and have been unable to rid /
their system entirely Of the germs.

TEMPERANCE MEMS RALLY.
Five Hundred Attend Qualification
Meeting in Waterloo.

Waterloo, May 1.-The rally Of dry
forces here last night, called originally
by the Business Mems Temperance As
ISOLATION, as sort Of jubilation over
the anti-saloon legislation enacted by
the last assembly, took on a much
larger significance as many of the
leading dry statesmen of Iowa gath
erred about the banquet board at the
Elks hotel.
Fully 500 attended the dinner which
was presided over by j. w. Tuthill. Of
Waterloo.
The speakers included Attorney
General Cosson, Senator Allen, Sena-
tor Francis, Senator Robinson. Sena-
tor Grout, Representative Taylor and
Mayor Hanna, Of Des Moines. OF those
who had been expected to attend, SEN
ator Clarkson was about the only alb
sentee. so that the political complex
ion of the affair was almost exclusively
republican.
Without naming him, Attorney Gen
eral Cosson took few hot shots at
Lieutenant Governor Harding for his
attitude on the question II law en-
forcement.
Senator Allen reviewed the work
OF the legislature especially with ref
erence to anti-liquor laws. and Mayor
Hanna told OF the experience Of Des
Moines since it went dry, making a
showing altogether TO the advantage of
the drys.'

Question for the occult.

A story was once related Of lady
who strongly objected for certain rea'
sons to having her photograph taken
One day she died; she was laid to
rest in her CONN, where she remained
two days. On the second day a pho
tograph Of her was taken by the To-
cal photographer. Next day she was
buried. Two days later the photog-
rapher came around in great state
of excitement, saying that. although
he had carefully developed his plate,
not mark was to be found on 1t.
Where the face should have been was
a blank space! Now, the possible ex-
PLANTATION 10 that the still active will
OF this person was being exercised In
some such occult manner, to the end
that she interfered with the light
rays coming from her face sum
to prevent its image being recorded.

The Grinnell Canning Company Is
planning for successful year. Some
400 acres OF sweet corn have already
been promised and the company hopes
to increase the acreage by 200 acres

offered an extra dollar a ton for the
corn to stimulate production. Some
20 900 cases Of corn of the 1915 pack
have been engaged and the last Of the
1914 crop Is just going out,
The commercial club is getting busy
now on the Grinnell census. Assessor
L. NJ. Smith has taken the census in
connection with making the assess

being probably correct But shifting
population makes it safe to check over

be larger than present figures indi-

Making sleep a Business.

Eight hours sleep, eight hours OF
work and eight hours OF recreation IL
a good recipe for the average man
and woman. This Isay vary more or
less, according to strength, nerves and
occupation. When you feel worn out,
drop every, other consideration and
try to re-establish normal rest Though
the causes and needs Of sleep are still
somewhat of mystery, we know that
the activity Of the brain cells Is re-
duced. They are occupied in taking
nourishment from the blood. Better
results are had when the head rests
low and the windows, are wide open,
giving plenty Of oxygen to the lungs.
This creates new supply OF energy
for the waking and working hours.
