This being the case. we can only
urge that every one take every pre-
caution possible for his own protection.
For several weeks | have urged.
Though the daily press, the use of
anttyphoid vaccination. Many have
reason to congratulate themselves that
they have followed this advice They
may now feel easy.
The following points are to he borne
especially in mind:
Every case of typhoid fever that
ever WAS is due TO exactly one cause
and only one; namely. the taking into
ones stomach. in food or drink. typhoid
germs which have been discharged
from another person then suffering
from the disease or from Il person who
though himself recovered Gin some in
germs in his digestive tract and con-
tiuucs TO discharge Thorn. such Il per-
son is known as a carrier.
Though in the above sense there is
only one cause OF typhoid fever. in
another sense there is a great variety
OF causes. for the reason that the chan
nels by which the germs discharged by
one person may he swallowed by an
other person are many.
Water and milk have caused more
epdcmics Of typhoid fever than any
other single cause. OF course. neither
water nor milk can cause typhoid un-
typhoid case or carrier.

BEYOND QUESTION

our records show that. beyond all
question. none of the cases OF typhoid
fever in RiChmond at the present time
have been caused by milk. This *
easily established. Many OF the cases
drank no milk before their attack,
while tho other cases are distributed
among III" customers of the various
dairies. thus proving that no one Of
them was tho cause of illness
In tho case Of our water supply i,
IL no; so easy 10 speak with positive
assurance. Nearly every one in Rich
mond drinks city water. hence nearly
every person who has typhoid fever
drank city water--iust as did nearly
every person who has not got typhoid
fever.
AS matter Of fact. we can neither
charge that water is the cause of much
I our typhoid fever at present nor can
we. right now, prove the contrary
analysis Of cur water made by Mr.
inldwin. director Of tho settling basins

HELPED JUDGES OUT OF HOLE
Housewife Really Made Decision That
Was SolemnIy Handed Down
From the Supreme Bench.

The opinions of the Supreme court
of the United States are very care
fully guarded up to the moment they
are read from the bench; but now
and then, after a decision has become
history, there leaks out an entertain
ing story of how it came to be rem
dered.
In his book, "Walks About Wash
ington," Mr.. Francis Leupp says
that one such instance was the case
of an imported delicacy that might
have been classed either as a prep
aration of fish or as a favOring
sauce. The custom officers had levied
duty on it as sauce, and an import
err had appealed. The justices, when
they came to compare notes, admit
ted that they were sorely puzzled,
and one of them suggested that,
since the technical arguments were
SO well balanced, it might be wise to
fall back upon common sense. That
evening he carried a sample Of the
disputed substance home to his wife,
who was an expert in culinary mat
tiers.
"There, my dear" said he. sis
sauce for you to ~"
With one look at the contents of
the package, which she evidently rec
ognized, she exclaimed, "Pshawl
That's no sauce! that's fish. Didn't
you know it?"
The next day the court met again
for consultation, and on the follow
ing Monday handed down "A decision
