PREVENT TYPHOID FEVER.
Little Talks on Health and Hygiene by
Samuel G. Dixon, NJ. D., Ii. D.,
Commissioner Of Health.

We must do our best to keep
we'll. Before long our hospitals
will be wanted for our soldiers.
Listen-and take a little advice.
Don't be careless or foolhardy
and bank on your being an ex-
ception to the rest of your asso-
ciates and defy Nature, for she
will not be defed.
Typhoid fever germs in 4 fer
tile medium will grow just as
surely as grains Of wheat in a
fertile soil.
Nowadays Nature is in all her
glory in the valleys and noun
tains of our beautiful country
and it is the season when we are
attracted from our winter homes
to get close to Nature. Camping
grounds are easily reached in
these days of automobiles, motor
cycles and other rapidly moving
vehicles. There are thousands
of beautiful sites to pitch our
tents along the attractive-look-
ing brooks. 1t is these attrac-
tive waters, which we find 80
soothing to the thirst after riding
or driving long distances, that are
so deceptive to the layman. They
are oftel clear and sparkling,
yet loaded with miserable house
drainage, c'rrying at times the
deadly germs If typhoid fever.
Don't be deceived by the old
fashioned pump. the boiling
springs, and the clear water
ripping over the pebbles in our
little mountain streams, for Penn
sylvania has now become thickly
populated with people who are
not yet sufficiently educated to
protect the streams thoroughly
against pollution.
When you are travelling by au-
tomobile or camping in strange
locations never drink the waters
without filtering or boiling. Try
to carry pure water with you
either in thermos bottles or stone
jars. Most typhoid fever is con-
tracted from drinking water. 1t
is the great carrier and typhoid
enters the system by drinking,
by cleansing the teeth, by rinsing
the face and mouth, or through
raw vegetables that are washed
in infected waters.
Swimming in polluted streams
is known to be dangerous and
children as well as adults have
often lost their lives from taking
typhoid fever in this way.
Be just as sure to carry pure
water for drinking when touring
or camping as to have good food.

Became Insane.

Joseph Layton, a farmer aged
about 35 near Three Springs,
who has been in poor health for
the past three years, became vio-
lently insane, He was taken to
the county Jail at Huntingdon a
few days and as his condition did
not seem to improve the Sheriff
and his deputy took him to the
insane hospital at Harrisburg on
Monday of last week. They had
to take him by force measures,
having considerable trouble to
get him to the hospital. He has
q wife and and child.

Patriotic KuObsville.

Hurrah for Knobsville! Bright
and early last Saturday morning
six of Knobsville's sturdy young
men went to Chambersburg to
offer their service to Uncle Sam.
According to population, that is
a greater showing than has been
made by any town we have heard
from. Knobsville has the spirit.
The names of the young men are
as follows: John w. Kelso, Rush
Wagner, Merrill Fore, Re ID
While, Harry Naugle, and Horace
Ashwell. If they pass the rigid
examination and are accepted as
part of the country's defensive
forces, Knobsville will win no
mean place in the history of the
greatest war the world has ever
expe rienced.
Since putting the foregoing
into type, we are informed by
the recruiting agent at Cham
bersburg tn a the following
named Fulton County boys have
applied for enlistment: Daniel F.
Barnhart, McConnellsburg, Hos
pital Corps; Pierce A. Naugle,
Knobsville, Infantry; Melvin L.
Chapman, Hospital; Reed M.
While, Knobsville, Infantry. The
recruiting agent further states
that John w. Kelso, of Knobs
vile, will leave Friday for the
regular army from Chambers
burg. The other Knobsville boys
who went to Chambersburg to
enlist, did not measure up to the
required standard in their exam
ination, but they intend to get
in yet, if they have to crawl in
under the tent.

Suffrage Item.

Alice Stone Blackwell said
Statistics published by the Ma
tional Bureau of Education show
that the high schools of every
state in the Union.are graduating
more girls than boys some of
them twice and three times as
many. Because of the growing
tendency to take boys out of
school early in order to put them
into business, girls are getting
more schooling than boys. Equal
suffrage would increase the pro-
portion of voters who have re-
ceived more than a merely ele-
mentary education, and in this
manner greatly reduce the per-
centage of the ignorant vote"
