exercises for reducing hips and large
calves. Mine are so large due to seden-

Please send self-addreSsed, stamped

RECORDS OF SICKNESS AND
DEATHS IN MARYLAND
Show Increase From Influenza,
Pneumonia and Heart Disease

Records of sickness and deaths thru
out Maryland for the first nine months
of the current year in comparison
with those of the corresponding period
of 1928, show a decrease in deaths
from typhoid fever, measles and diph-
iberia, and an increase in the deaths
from influenza, pneumonia, whooping
cough, scarlet fever and heart dis
ease. There were 20 deaths from ty-
phoid fever in comparison with 43 in
1928; 10 from measles in comparison
with 80; 81 from diphtheria in COM
parison with II; 2412 from influenza
and pneumonia in comparison with
1920 in 1928; "a from scarlet fever in
comparison with 9 in 1929; 1850 from
heart disease in comparison with 2768
N 1928.
There were 53,6O2 cases of notifa-
BILE disease reported in the State dur
ing the first nine months of the cur
rent year in comparison with 41,679
during the same period of 1928; with
a total of 1854 deaths from all causes
during the first nine months of 1929,
and 1896 to the end of September,
1928. Analysing the increase, DR.. R.
H. Riley, Director of the State Depart
ment Of Health, said that much of it
could be traced to the influenza cpl
demic Of last winter. In this connec-
ton, he said that the counties were
especially hard hit by the epidemic and
that of the total of 23,841 cases of in
f1uenza reported in the State during
the current year, 1924, or 72 per
cent, occurred in the counties, and
6,607, or % per cent, in Baltimore
City.
The influence of the influenza out
break was particularly noticed, DR..
Riley said in the increase in deaths
from the respiratory diseases in the
counties among children under year
old. There were 236 infant deaths
from these causes reported during the
first nine months of the current year
in comparison with 175 during the
same months of 1928. An increase in
the deaths from digestive diseases
among young children during the Win
ter months could also be attributed, he
said, to the effect of the influenza
epidemic.
The least favorable month during
the current year, so far as sickness
and deaths were concerned, was Jan
uary, during which 24,115 cases of no
tifable disease were reported, 16,767
in the counties, and 8,348 in Baltimore
City; with 1924 deaths, 1929 in the
counties and 1,495 in Baltimore City.
The most favorable was September,
with 1927 cases of illness from mott
fable diseases, 754 in the counties and
873 in Baltimore City, and with 1,464
deaths, us in the counties and TAG in
Baltimore City.
