 Editor Journal of the American
 Medical Association and of Hy- 1 geia. the Health Magazine. 1 The Journal of the American
 Medical Association has just made
 available its annual report on deaths
 from typhoid fever in the large cities of the United States.
 The death rates from typhoid fe- yer are all index to the sanitation of the community. particularly al re- laf1ng to food supply. water supply. and the disposal of sewage.
 Eighty-one citizens in the United States of more than 100000 popula- tton are concerned in the annual summary. The New England cities are particularly free from typho old i fever. New Haven and Springfield, in ee7. being without a single t,'- old death.
 Examination for Carriers In Providence, R. l.. a child two months of age died Of typhoid fe- yer. Its father had had typhoid two years before and the mother aud two other children were found to be typhoid carriers. The typhoid car- rler Is a menace to every healthful person in the community After case Of typhoid fever occurs in | family. other members should be en- amined and if a carrier is found, proper scientific measures should be taken to rid him or her of the bac. teria.
 Paterson. N. J.. and Yonkers were l without typhoid death in 1927. For 1onkers, 1t was the second consecu- tive year without | typhoid death l and the fourth such year in its his- tory. Yonkers is tho only large city in the United States with such q rec ord.
 Richmond. Va. had no typhoid deaths in 1927. Canton. Ohio, and Kansas City. Kansas. are also on this honor roll. Seven cities, there- fore, out of Sl had clear records-l NI"S 109 6ooI uNIupcf III any Sl0Kle year since 1913.
 Britaln's Record
 In Great Britain out of %s large cities, IS did not have . single ty- phoid fever death in 1s2t, showing that there is still room for im- provement in American conditions. Nevertheless the total typhoid fe- yer rate Tor 7t of the large cities of the United States during 1927 was under two per 100000 of pop. llation. This is the lowest rate , sver reached in the history of our country.
 The rate shows . steady decline inee 1919 from .o:5s per 100, 900 population to l.ss in 1927, If the 1910 typhoid death rate still pre-. , vailed in the United States, there ( would have been se.es: more I 'eaths from typhoid last year than ( actually occurred. ,

How abou, II, old dear? Cp to

 Dicky's voice held it's old provo catfve drawl as he came out on the upper Veranda where l was ,yping. l found myself thrilling 0 that teas- ing note. once so frequently invest ing his tones. but conspicuously ah- sent during the months Of our es- trangement But ever since the day when he had asked me to pick up the pieces of our shattered happi- ness. he gradually had slipped back into the old amusing though some times irritating raillery.
 1 was in no captlous mood, how ever, in these glorious days of late summer. I was grateful to Dlcky for not hurrying me into the recon- ciliation which 1 tentatively had promised him. and was glad of the opportunity to give him the friendly, careless comradeship which so far was all he had asked, He never had repeated the rough embrace and i'm pssioned kiss which he had given me upon that day of adjustment and l knew that he must have been chilled by nay failure 10 respond to his caress. But not yst could l bring myself to complete torgettulncss of inc terrible unfaith III He hich had driven me from him.

Furniture Bug
 Busy this Year
Harmful Beetle Attacking
 Tapestried Furnishings.

Washington. May 1s IN--A little pug that vas first noticed in Wash. inston in 8 chair that came from the White House has started it. spring program of destruction of mohair tapestried furniture.
 Dr. A. E. Black, of the bureau c, entomology in the Department of Agriculture, reports that hts spring correspondence is chiefly from housewives who look with dismay upon the wilted davenport and the chair cushions.
 'This insect, commonly called the furniture carpet Beetle" Dr. Black says, "was first noticed in America in 1911 by the American Museum of Natural History in some specimens of curled hair from furniture that came to this country from Russia.
 Tt made its appearance in the nations capital in . chair that had been given 10 the executive man. sion by the Turkish eovernmene in 1915. Since that time 1t has be- come serious pest and is particu- larlx bad this spring. judging from the number of requests our office has had for remedies.
 "The adult beetle can be located during its flight from March to June, when it leaves the furniture and crawls about the furnishings and windows The brown, white and yellow scales that cover its body make 1t conspicuous. though 1t is but . quarter of m inch long"
 Thorough fumigation of the en- tire house or the particular piece of furniture affected is suggested by tho bureau as the best means of combating the destructive pest.
