Typhoid Fever.

Apropos of the outbreak of infan- tile paralysis in New York City, and the great unrest of the people con- cerning the possible spread of the dis case to other parts of the country, it is well to not overlook the danger to which the public is at all times ex- posed from typhoid fever, malaria, tuberculosis and other we'll known communicable diseases which are con stantly carrying on their ravages.
 Typhoid fever has in the past, and is now, playing a tragedy which will never be eQualIed by infantile para lyss. Infantile paralysis may for d short season, claim few thousand lives; typhoid fever will continue to claim its many thousands. In the United States every year 100000 per sons contract typhoid fever, and 4O,- 900 die from the disease. Economi- eally considered, typhoid fever is one or the three ranking diseases which affect mankind, and it's control con- stltutes one of the most difficult sani- tary problems of the age.
 Typhoid fever is more frequent in the summer and fall than in other seasons. This is because of the in- creased danger from fly infection and rom a lowering of resistance result ing from the summer heat. Watc~ supplies also are more apt to become polluted in dry seasons than in wet seasons.
 How Acquired.
 Typhoid germs enter the body through the mouth and find lodgment Tn the intestinal tract where they multiply, produce toxins, and, when absorbed by the blood, give rise to certain symptoms which constitute the disease. The disease never arises spon- @neously in the system. It can only De acquired from some antecedent

SUFFERERS APPEAL TO
 RED CROSS SEAL FUND.

One mail on the desk of the sec. retary of the National Tuberculosis Association brought in the other day varied assortment of appeals for help from the Red Cross Christ mas Seal Fund Here they are:
 One mother writes relative to a little son with tuberculosis of the spine. She does not want to see him become hunchback One writes for help for her daughter. She is without money, but she will work to support her daughter. One wife writes that she is making a fight to get well. She has a family of three children, and she is afraid that her husband is also infected. The future does not look very bright for her. She is afraid that her three children will in a short time be orphans. A school teacher writes that In her room last year was very bright and promising pupil, young girl sixteen years of age. He missed her this year and after short time started an inves- tigation to learn why she was not with the class. He soon found her. She was confined to her bed with consumption. She and her mother lived together In shanty, and her  mother was taking In washings.
 Not all of these and hundreds of similar appeals can be needed, be- cause there Is not enough money. Will you buy Red Cross Seals to make the burden lighter for some poor sufferer? Arkansas Assoca- tion for Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, City HaII Little Rock, is agent.

case. The usual modes of transmits sion are by (a) contact, (b) water, (c) milk, d) flies, etc.
 Typhoid fever is often spoken of as water-borne disease, because in a large number of cases it is contracted from the use of polluted drinking water. Many severe epidemics have been definitely traced to contaminated milk. Flies play a most important role in the dissemination of typhoid. The outbreak of typhoid fever in the U. $. army camps, during the Span ish-American war was largely due to the common house fly. Carelessness in the disposal of the patients eX- creta constitutes one of the greatest sources of danger in the spread of the disease. Flies having access to such excreta carry the germs and are cap able of contaminating food and drink.
 Symptoms.
 The time intervening between the entrance of the germs into the sys- tenn until the appearance of the first symptoms is from ten days to three weeks. The first symptoms to develop during this period are headaches, loss of appetite. muscular tiredness and general debility. These symptoms may last from a few days to a week, when the patient goes down with ali the symptoms of the disease. During this stage, which is known as the in cubation period, the patient is suscep- tible of transmitting the disease.
 Diagnosis.
 The diagnosis should be mace early, and a blood test is necessary. Blood examinations for typhoid for the hygienic laboratory of the State Board of Health are made by the Depart ment of Pathology of the medical de- partment of the University of Ar kansas, and this department will rem der every assistance to physicians Tn the diagnosis of the disease. No fee is charged for any examinations made for public health purposes. Prof. A. C. Shipp, M. D., professor of path ology will give full information upon request.
 Prevention.
 The prevention of typhoid fever k the simple application of the prlnci- ples of right living. Water for do- mestic purposes should be pure and free from contamination. Boil milk and water when in doubt. The soil should not be polluted by the dis charges from the human body The breeding places of flies should be destroyed, and every house used for human habitation, and every privy should be securely screened. A well screened house is the undertaken s worst enemy.
 Typhoid fever is reportable dls- ease in Arkansas Every case should be isolated and managed in a general way as any communicable disease. The discharges of the body should be thoroughly sterilzed with heat. Those in attendance upon typhoid should avoid personal contamination with discharges from the body. Air, sun shine and water are natures greatest antiseptics
 ImmunizatiOn.
 1t is now we'll established that in- occulations with typhoid vaccine will prevent the disease; therefore, uni versal vaccination is advised The ln- iections are absolutely harmless. Full instructions for immunzation will be sent upon request.

EARLY DISCOVERY
 OF TUBERCULOSIS
NOT DANGEROUS IN THE HOME IN THE EARLY STAGES OF
 THE DISEASE.
Important to Understand the Early Symptoms Which Warn of Its Pres ence-Can Be Cured If Precau-
 tions Are Taken.

Perhaps the most distressing feat ure about tuberculosis is the fact that so few people know they have it until It has reached fairly advanced stage. IT people would only realize the need for early examination and therefore early detection of the disease there would be fewer deaths from this mal- ady. The National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tubercu- losis has therefore issued pamphlet written in simple language giving all that is to be known about tubercu- losis, its prevention and cure. This pamphlet is called, What You Should Know About Tuberculosis, and con- sists of 32 prayers well printed On page 13 is found the following advice.
 If you catch the disease, how can you find it out soon enough to cure it?
 Remember that this disease can be cured in the majority of cases if it Is discovered early. while if it is not found out until it is advanced, it is hard to cure it at all.
