Says Typhoid Not Caused by Water

Cause.

There were Is cases Of typhoid re-

month c: June, Making a total of p,
cases cince January 1. During the
same period of last year we had a
total gf 22 cases, says Dr.. L. E.
Foulks, City lrJalth officer.
From january to July last year, we
had 3 deaths from typhoid. For the
same period this year we have had
2 deaths, one less than last year
A very careful investigation of
these 18 cases, shows that one case
was Imported, and cases are prcba-
bly, outside infections.
A goodly portion of our population
work outside the city. Many other

Many yung men and boys persist
in swimming in the river, which l.
simply am open sewer. And many n
s,;st upon drinking water from the
various springs outside Of this city,
despite the fact that | have frequent
iy issued public warnings that pract;-
ca]ly all such springs are polluted
Many people even go out to these
springs and bring water home for
drinking purposes.
There are more flies this spring
than usual on account OF the warm
winter. More flies means more ty-
phoid. even under normal conditions.
One thing is sure, that the cases
we had last month were not caused oy
either the water or milk served in
this city. There is absolutely nothing
TO point to any one thing as the
cause. But why have typhoid when you
can be immunized against it?
The anti-typhoid inocculaticn is All
absolutely safe and sure prevention
of the disease.
Your family doctor will inocculate
you. If you can't afford to have him
DO so, we Will do It at small cost,

Why run the risk Of serious dis.
ease when you can prevent it? Re-
member, you VIII lfind more or less

Of the world. If you won't make any
