This is difficult to do. Photogra phs of typical cases which have occurred in this city within the past month are on file. These photographs tell their own story and require no explanation. Where they are shown they convince. But here lies the difficulty. The as- pect of the eases is so grnesome that it is hardly allowable to print them in the newspapers. because of the morbid feeling they would create. Un- biased thought with these facts in mind will convince most people that it is infinitely better to be vaccinated than to run the risk of contracting black smallpox, and there was black smflpox in New Britain last nsonth.
 Tt hardly seems necessary to tell the value of vaccination. Everyday ex- perence right here in the city gives complete proof. Ask the families who have suffered from the disease. They know. They Will state facts which theories will not disprove. Consider these facts"
