Prevention of Typhoid Fever. Few diseases are so dreaded as ty phoid fever, and according to Dr. Ld- son, of the New York health board, "nothing is so discreditable to the civ ilization of the nineteenth century than the existence of this disease.” He justifies that remark by saying: “Of all diseases it is the most easily pre ventable.” Typhoid fever is nearly always due to polluted water, milk or meat, but in a great majority of cases, to polluted water. Dr. Edson attacks the family well as the great disseminator of this disease. Not only in cities, but in small towns and in the country the water of the average well, he says, is impure. He goes to the extent ofsay- ing that “there is not a well in the country the water of which is safe to drink.” Beautiful, clear water, deli cious to the taste, when drawn from a well near a residence, the doctor tells us, is almost sure to contain disease germs. He says: “During the last year I have visited twenty towns sup plied with water from dug or driven wells; in every instance the supply was polluted, and in most c:\ses its pollu tion was the cause of the prevalence of typhoid fever.” When milk is in fected with the germs of the disease it is either because the cans have been washed with infected water, or because the cow has drank it. Boiling water will destroy typhoid fever germs, but they withstand cold as 22 degrees be low zero. The belief that all ice is pure has long since been exploded. Ice often embodies and preserves dis ease germs. Twenty-two cases of typhoid fever at a popular summer resort not long ago were attributable to the fact that the ice used there had been cut from near the mouth of a sewer in a lake near by. Dr. Edson thinks the general substi tution of cement cisterns, attesian wells and good water-works for wells would cause a great improvement in the health of the country and a marked decrease in number of cases of typhoid fever. His views of the dangers aris ing from the use of well water in vil lages and the rural districts are pessim istic, but there is no doubt (Sat many wells, which are considered perfectly pure, are fountains of disease instead ot health. In such matters over-cau tion is a good practice.—Macon Tele graph. Cleveland's Summer Plans. New York, June 23.—Ex President Cleveland has alread^laid out the plan of his summer outing, intending to go to Marion, Mass., during the month of July, and to the Adirondacks in August. He receives daily number less invitations to banquets and recep tions, all of which he is forced to de cline. Speaking about the matter he said to-day that, having returned to private life, he felt that his indulgence at the present time in public entertain ments should be reduced to the min* imum ol frequency. For these reasons he was compelled to forego the pleas ure of attending a banquet of the Jeff ersonian reform club of Newark, among the members of which are a number of very warm friends, and also a number of gentleman from Caldwell, the place of his birth.
