DISEASE CARRIERS
J ARE DISCUSSED BY
HEALTH OFFICER
Dr.. '. d. Guittard Discusses the Car.
riers Of Diseases In Inter.
esting Article.

(By Or. v. D. Guittary, Director Ma
son County Health DEPARTMENT.
There are many people in good
health who produce disease germs In
their bodies. Typhoid Mary was no.
torious example. This woman who
was employed as a cook. left a trail
Of typhoid cases wherever she was
employed. The authorities finally
placed her In an institution where she
was kept under restraint.
These people who unknown even to
themselves harbor disease germs
within their bodies. mingle freely with
other people without Of course taking
any precautions whatever. Such per-
sons are called carriers" and gen.
orally are themselves proof against
the disease.
The disease germs In carriers" are
found in the tonsils. In Assesses and
running sores. discharging ears and
In the gall bladder.
The diseases most often spread by
carriers" are diphthcria, scarlet
fever. typhoid fever and meningitis.
These carriers" and mild or missed
cased are responsible for the many
cases OF communicable diseases con-
stantly occurring. Many cases Of sore
throat are really mild cases OF scarlet
fever or diphtheria. Carriers" are
Just as dangerous rs person who is
sick with q contagious disease, for he
can also spread II.
The many cases OF diphtheria oc-
curing In this community are due to
carriers who have the diphtheria
germs In their throats and are not
made sick by them. but who pass
these on TO other persons who then
take the disease.
A search is being made by the
Health Department for diphtheria
carriers among school children. A
considerable number have been found
and the parents notified to take them
to their physician for treatment. In
one school in the county five car
rirs" were foud. Two Of these were
In one family. Proper precautions
we're not taken. notice to the parents
was disregarded. A young child in
the same family caught the disease
from his two older brothers who
were carriers" and died from diph-
liberia.
II Il difficult to make any one be-
lieve that disease germs may grow In
the body and all ordinary signs OF
sickness are absent. But this is abso-
iutely true. The microscope shows IT,
Children who are found to be car
riers" Of diphtheria should have their
throats treated and should also re-
ceive q dose OF antitoxin.
Carriers" usually produce fewer
germs than the sick, but on account
Of their mingling freely with other
people they are responsible for most
Of the cases. That Is. more new cases
arise from carriers" than on account
Of exposure to q person who is really
sick with one Of these diseases.

MACHINES NOW DIGGING COAL
Inventions Have Wrought Great
Changes In the Methods Of Bringing
"BIack Diamonds" to Surface.

With the rapid development Of la
cording to Popular Mechanics Maya
zine, is being transformed into Keen
eyed operator of a powerful machine
which not only mines and loads the
coal, but does it in q safer and more
economical manner; safer, because the
coal Is broken down without the use
of explosives which tend to shatter the
roof and make 1t dangerous; and
more economical, because 1t produces
more lump coal and fewer fines, and
does 1t more rapidly.
One machine developed for this
work consists Of an underwriting
frame with cutter chain and shear
ing frame on each side Of the machine.
in the underwriting frame is a con-
veyor.e There Is provided powerful
ram which breaks down the coal onto
the cOnveyor. This ram can be d.
rected at any height Of the coal face.
The machine Is mounted In a pan
and fed forward by means of a steel
rope. When the cut has been made,
the machine Is pulled back in the pan
by means Of rope; then this rope Is
hooked over sheave on the forward
side Of the machine and the eye fas-
tened to jack at the face Of the OPP
posite rib. BY this means the ma
chine is pulled sideways the width Of
the cut. This requires about three
minutes The machine Is then ready
to take another cut.
The machine can be used In COM
binationS with a movable storage hop
per provided with loading cOnveyOr.
By this system the machine operates
continuously during the time the load
ed mine car is being removed and re-
placed by an empty one.
