When the discovery Of diphtheria
~antitoxin was made people thought
that the fight against this disease
had been won. 1t vas subsequently
found, however, that the antitoxin
must be administered at a very
early stage to be used with effect.
DR.. Schick, after a long series Of
experiments, finally evolved a test
which shows whether a given indi-
vidual is susceptible to ,diphtheria or
not. We are now able to ascertain
to a nicely that practically so per
cent. of the new born, so to 60 per
cent. of the children and 90 per cent.
of the adults are naturally immune
from the disease.
This discovery threw a new light
on the spread of the disease and ex-
planned why only certain persons
take diphtheria even when exposed
to it. 1t shows whether a person
has sufficient antitoxin in his blood
to overcome an infection with diph-

great wrong that has been for years
allowed to slumber by the wayside.
1 refer to the treatment accorded
our citizens who r called to DO
Jury duty in our local, county ana
state courts. Are you, Mr.. Peter
son, aware of the fact that a busi-
ness man called for jury service is
at a loss of at least $40 per day
while to a laborinS man a term as
a Juror practically means bank
rup.cy and perhaps the loss of his
job to boot?
Why should this state of affairs
exist? Why should any citizen be
compelled to mix and NEEDLE in the
affairs of others at a loss to them
selves? Is the State of New Jersey
delinquent alone as tar as regards
Just compensation for citizens who
may be called as Jurors?
Does the fact that Judge DAILY at
the opening of court, delivers his
time-word sermon on the honor
conferred upon Jurors in any way
compensate ther for their personal
loss? 1 should say not. Judges, as
a rule do not serve at a loss. neither
do prosecutors, their assistants nor
lawyers in general. Surely, Mr..
Peterson. you will remedy the mat
ter by INTRODUCING and securing the
passage of "a bill designed to raise
the pay of men and Women whom
the state may call TO do jury duty to
a sum equivalent TO at least SIS per
day with mileage OF eight cents per
mile added. This rate is entirely
reasonable. Judges. l am told get
twenty cents per mile and their SAL
ary runs from $4,000 away up to
$4,000 per year. Let US have JUS
tice for tho people who really work.
Let us have some legislation that
Ms really in the interest of the peo-
pie as a whole. Mr. Peterson. and
your future is assut ed.

liberia bacilli.
The test is made by injecting a
small amount of diphtheria toxin
into the skin. If the blood of the in
dividual tested contains diphtherla
antitoxin, there will be no apparent
result, for the toxin is at once neu-
tralized by the antitoxin.
The absence of a reaction, there
fore, signifies the presence of anti
toxin in the individuals blood. show
ing he is immune to diphtheria.
Such persons, however. may become
carriers of the disease. If, however,
there is a reaction to the Schick test,
it indicates that such persons are
susceptible to diphtheria. They
should take diphtheria antitoxin.
1t would be well for everyone to
make sure that he is immune to
diphtheria. Consult your physician
and ask him to apply the Schick
test. Schools and communities all
over the nation are thus helping to
battle the disease. 1t is the only
way effectually to blot it out.
