THE PERIL OF EPIDEAICS.
Infant Paralysis is Now Raging,
Children Dying by Hundreds.

.
When one reads in history Of how
great plaques like small pox used to
sweep cities out of existence and de-
vastate whole sections and coustries
perhaps the biggest of the advances
of modern science is suggested. To-
day an epidemic that carries off a
hundred people il a single locality Is
unusual. Railroad stations are
crowded with persons seeking places
Of safety for children, and people get
very panicky.
Yet when disease gets started
like the infant paralysis epidemic
now raging in New York, there is
every reason for the most serious
concern. The peril Of such a conta-
gion is not exaggerated. A physician
was speaking recently of his expert
ence few years ago in his home
town, where this disease got a very
considerable start. He is not man
given to over caution, in fact is quite
the opposite, doctor who believes
his patients should do things, that
they should take chances, and is al
ways optimistic that perils will be
avoided. This doctor, with his hope
full temperament, went so far as to
tell his wife and children to stay in
doors every moment that they could.
He felt the peril so keenly that he
would have all social and amusement
life stop until the disease could be
PUT under control.
No disease takes a more pitiful
toll of human life than this scourge
now raging in New York. 1t takes
the brightest and healthiest children,
and in few hours so withers vital
elements of their nervous system
that they are almost fortunate if a
life of crippled existence is saved by
a speedy and fatal end.
Whenever any such epidemic
starts, the public owes it to itself to
cooperate In the heartlest way with
health authorities. The majority
of people are so thoroughly frighten-
ed at conagitous diseases nowadays
that they do thus cooperate much
better than in any other aspect of civ
ic life. Still there are always
thoughtless persons, who should
know better, who allow children to
take part freely in all kinds of mis-
cellaneous gatherings.

KOSHER SLAUGHTERING.
Five shops in Sioux City Patronized
Exclusively by 1000 Families.

In Sioux City are five Kosher
shops, patronized almost exclusively
ty 1000 families. Kosher slaughter
ing, or slaughtering according to
rites observed by orthodox Jews, is
done in Sioux City packing houses
today. For 3,400 years Jews have
practiced the ceremonies received
from their great teacher, Moses.
In modern days, it is commonly
known that Jews eat no swine. This
is because of a distinction made be-
tween clean and unclean food. The
distinction is this: The clean ami
nal is that animal whose foot or hoof
is thoroughly cloven into two parts,
and no more, and which chews the
cud
IL addition to the hoof distinction,
only that portion of an animal for
ward from the fifth rib is eaten. Then
too, the meat must be sold in Kosher
shops within four days.
Kosher slaughtering is the killing
of animals designed for food accord
Ing to The laws Of Moses. Tie object
CT this special method of killing is
to insure complete bleeding OF the
carcass, and it is done by severlng
the windpipe with long, iazoredg-
ed knife, by stroke backward and
forward.
The length of the knife used must
be twice the width of the throat or
the animal about to be slaughtered.
The motion must be continuous.
The blade must be visible in the
{ operation. If the flesh adheres to the
carcass or is torn in the operation
the animal is rejected. The slightest
flaw in the knife blade after the Incl
Ision also bars the animal
A blessing is pronounced by rab-
bi before the killing, and there must
be no irrelevant talk. The killing is
done by a Shehatim, who is an or
thCdOX Jew. He is well yersed in the
operation and does his work with
skill He must pass an examination
before being permitted to do Kosher
butchering.
Several times each week Kosher
Strengthening is done at the plan. OF
Sacks Bros. Packing Company. a
rabbi is present, as we'll as the She
hatim. Purchasers Of the beef are
allowed. The rejection Of any
slaughtered animals is unques Toned.
