Diphtheria

Now that the season is propl.
tious for the spread of the above
named disease. a word of advice
may not be amiss.
Our knowledge of ~diphtheris
is very satisfactory since we
know the cause, it's mode OF
transmission and how to prevent
its spread.
We also have a scientific RENE
dy. both curative and preventive.
Among other factors the opening
of the schools favors its spread,
and parents and teachers should
be on the alert, particularly when
a child complains Of sore throat.
Another point that should be
observed is that diphtheria is
more prevalent in rural than in
urban communities.
The disease is caused by a
germ, the diphtheria bacillus,
and it always enters the throat
or nose, and has a special liking
for the mucous membrane of the
throat, nose and windpipe.
Why? Nobody knows. Why
does the miserable boil weeyil
seek the cotton boil on which to
feed his ugly carcass? Nobody
knows.
Some day, somehow some wise
men will find out.
The germ of diphtheria is
transmitted directly from person
to person by kissing, coughing or
sneezing droplets of mucous in
the face; toys, pencils, fingers,
food put in the mouth of the in
fected child and passed on to the
susceptible child.
Besides the mounting Of the
fingers with saliva and the use
of the common drinking cur, the
mouth is put to numberless inn
proper uses which may result in
the spread of infection. 1t is
used to hold strings. pins, PEN
ellis paper and money. The lips
are used to moisten the pencil,
to point the thread for the nedle,
to wet postage stamps and en-
velopes. Children swap apples,
cake and lollipops, while men
exchange their pipes and women
their hat pins.
Sometimes the mother is seen
cleansing the face of her child
with her saliva moistened hand
kerchief, and perhaps the visitor
is invited shortly afterwards to
kiss the little one.
You have heard of typhoid
carriers. There are also diph-
liberia carriers, and frequently
the spread of the disease is due
to this factor. One of the mar
velous discoveries Of all time is
the antitoxine for diphtheria. 1t
is saving thousands of lives the
world over, and no physician,
worthy OF the name, would hest
tate to use it. Indeed. it would
be criminal not to do so.
Since the introduction of anti
toxine in the treatment the NOR
tally has fallen from about 40
to less than 10 per cent.
Even in the worst type of the
disease. when it attacks the
windpipe, the mortality has been
reduced from 80 to less than Is
per cent.

The Naming of Wisconsin Counties.

Ozaukee County is named for the
noted Wisconsin tribe of Indians
the Sacs or Sank, "Ozaukee," being
the name by which the Chippewa
called this tribe. AS often with In
dian names, differing explanations
Of its meaning in English have been
advanced. More commonly it is as
serted to mean people living at the
mouth of the river" Others render it
as people of yellow earth
Pepin County takes its name from
Lake Pepin, an enlargement of the
Mississippi River well known to the
early explorers. Lake Pepin is one
Of the Oldest names on the map of
Wisconsin, being found there as
early as the year 1900 Probably It
vas named for one of the compan-
ions of Duluth, the famous wood
ranger whose name is now borne by
Minnesota's great lake port. One
authority, however, supposes Lake
Pepin to have been named for Pepin
the Short, an eighth century king of
the Franks

Dental Preparedness.

What is the most important attri-
butte of soldier?
Good feet?
No.
Good eyesight?
No.
Good brains?
No
What then?
Good teeth.
|. A soldier may have good feet, good
eyesight, and goods brains, but if he
has bad teeth, he can't eat If he
can't eat he can't march near enough
to the enemy to see him and use his
brains to fight him
How does a soldier get good teeth
By having good teeth in childhood.
How do children keep good teeth?
Through being taught by their mo-
Their how to keep their teeth clean and
having their teeth lookd after while
they are growing. This makes good
teeth for future soldiers.
1t would seem then as though the
first patriotic duty of a mother was
to keep her children's teeth IN good
condition.

Sore PRINTING Facts.

In estimating the relative merit OF
type end plate printing from a com
mercial point Of view it is cheaper to
eDgrave a pewter plate than to set up
q page of type, but the cost of printing
from the plate is greater than from
the types. II, therefore, small num-

if several thousand are likely to be

There is a Real Difference

Cream of tartar, derived from grapes,
is used in Royal Baking Powder because
it is the best and most healthful ingredient
known for the purpose.
Phosphate and alum, which are de-
rived from mineral sources, are used In
some, baking powders, instead of cream of
tartar, because they are cheaper.
If you have been induced to use baking
powders made from alum or phosphate,
use Royal Baking Powder instead. You
will be pleased with the results and the

REPORTS ON KEHOE
ARE ENCOURAGING

Mr.. N. ]. Eillayd, campaign man
ager for Walter Kehoe, Candidate
for Congress said yesterday that the
reports coming into Mr.. Kehoe's
headquarters was most encouraging;
that Mr.. Kehoe had travelled over
fifteen hundred miles in his car, see
ing the voters and making speeches
wherever the opportunity presented
itself. That he confidently believed
that Mr.. Kehoe was stronger now
than he was in 1908.
That two of the Candidates for
Congress have only resided in Flor
ida eight or nine years, and that this
fact together with the further fact that
their activities have been confined to
a small part of the District, gave Mr..
Kehoe, who has resided in this Dis
trict for thirty-three years and whose
practice has carried him constantly
into eleven of the fourteen counties
of the District decided advantage
because Of his large personal &C
quaintance.
