Out Importance of Knowing
That Milk la Pure.
Atlanta. On. —(Special ) —Ho you
know that the milk you are ualnit I*
sanitary and f>ce from dangeroui and I
deleterious Impurities? I)o you know
whether or not you are liable to take
typhoid forma Into your system In
the next Jtlat-a of milk you drink at
your table? I)o you know whether j
the condition aDd quality of the uulk
you are using aro such that It will not
affect the health of your child?
It Is Important, vitally Important,
(hat the consumers of milk who In.
etude practically every family, should
have definite knowledge, and not
mere oplniona or bellefa on theau
points, Bays the Georgia State Board
of Health.
Where the family owns Its cow and
knows It la healthy. It Is possible for
it to have always clean and healthy
milk by observing the simple said
tary rules in the process of milking—
rules whoso basic principle Is clean
liness, absolute cleanliness. Unfortu
nattly, however, the majority of fam
ilies either bn aum of the expense, or
local conditions of city llle, must de
pend on one of the nearby dairies for
their dally supply of milk.
From tlt'- ciadle, It might he said,
to the prave, milk Is one of the most
Important, most essential, articles of
human diet Composed of water car
rylug m solution the three groat nat
ural foods- -albumens In the form of
casein, carbohydrates such us milk su
gur or lactoße, and fat —milk Is an
(dial food for perrons In all uges. It
coutulua everything needed for tho
sustenance of Uto. Its value depends
upon Its purity; Its universal use de
mands thut It ahull bo pure, suultaiy
and wholesome.
The family owning Its own ct>w
should know first that the cow U
heulthy. The cow should ho milked
In clean surroundings. Tho person
milking huve thoroughly clean bunds.
Water should he boiled In the voesel
Into which the mtlk is to be drawn.
This I>otlt'd water should he poured
into unother vessel uud used for care
fully cleansing tho udder and teals
of the cow. Tho bucket Into which
the milk Is to be drawn should not be
rinsed after the boiled water Is pour
ed from It, for It Is then sterile and
clean, and other water poured tuto It
may couiumluute lb The milk should
bo poured Into other vessels which
lmvo been similarly cleansed and kept
in a clean refrigerator or cool place
until wanted for use.
With the cow ai home, the family
may see to It that these simple sani
tary rules are compiled with, but with
tiie dairy tho problem is a different
one. In the interest of the protec
tion of the public, cities uud towns
should employ the full extent of their
authority .u making rigid dairy In
spection; the city should stand iu
the place of tho consumer uud should
be able to certify to Its people thut
the milk they are getting, whatever
iu. source. Is suullury uud sale.
Undoubtedly sanitary conditions In
dairies could and would be more rig
idly enforced, it patrons of them
would v.slt them from time to time
nhd make personal Inspections; their
right-to do this where they are pat
rons, could not well be questioned.
City Inspection where many dairies
are Involved la often a dillicult prob
lem, for the watchful eye of the In
spector cannot be ever present.
Unsanitary milk Is u frequent pur
veyor of typhoid and other discuses
which abound Iu Impure water, and
which may be conveyed to the milk
through the use of such water, by
filthy surroundings or by files Milk
should be carefully protected from all
these sources of contamination.
Hut the purity of milk Is most tm
portatit because of Its essential use as
a food for Infant children There Is
undoubtedly a large percentage of In
fant mortality which may be attribut
ed to Impure and unsanitary mtlk.
The host food for the baby Is. of
course. Its mother’s milk; but unfortu
nately an Increasing percentage of
mothers are unable to nurse their
children, and cow’s milk properly
modified lit accordance with well de
fined rules to suit the child’s age and
condition of health. Is the best ob
tainable substitute.
Too great care cannot be exercised
In obtaining milk for the child; Its
delicate stomach Is suspectlble to
si vtit impurities which might not af
fect the adult and bowel complaints
otb'U serious and sometimes fatal,
may result from them. Unless the
mother is careful In the milk she se
cures for her child, she Is merely In
viting the denth of the littleone.
Keep the baby’s milk separate from
that of the family. Place It against
the Ice as soon as received. For feed
ing It should be modified as directed
by the physician All utensils used
In preparing modified milk should be
boiled or sterilised before using so as
to destroy all danserous germs Use
the large mouth nursing bottle; It Is
nu»e eas ly cleansed. Place the proper
amount of modified nillk for a single
nursing 'n each bottle and close the
month with a plug of cotton or rubber
stopper After cooling In cold water,
the bottles should be placed next to
the Ice until needl'd When needed,
heat the bottle tn warm water; never
pour the milk from the hottle to be
heated and then put it back Wash
the bottles immediately after nursing
and boll them tuffore using again
Wash the nipples carefully after each
nursing and place them in a solution
of one teaspoonful of boric acid to a
pint of water until needed When
needed one should he taken out, rins
ed and applied Immediately to the
neck of the bottle.
Tty securing clean, wholesome milk
and observing these simple rules the
mother may best protect and safe
guard the life of her child.

HE WAS VERY MUCH ALIVE
Old Laborer In London, Mourned ae
Dead for Weeks, Returns
n to His Home.
An extraordinary case of mistaken
identity, resulting in a loimbeth
I man being mourned as dead, and
an unknown stranger being buried
in his stead, eame to light the other
day.
Several weeks ago Charles Her
bert Skinner, an aged cab washer
! and laborer, sold up his home and
went in search of work. His wife
went into the workhouse. Three
weeks later a man died in the Salva
tion Army shelter at Blackfriars
road. He was “identified” as Skin
ner, and the body was buried in
| Streatham cemetery. Before the cof
fin was closed several members of
Skinner’s family satisfied themselves
us to the identity, nnd took away the
I dead man’s clothes. Tho “widow”
then went to stay with friends. The
other morning Skinner reappeared
at Murphy street, where his sister
in-law lives, and, in this relative’s
own words, “frightened the life out
of her.” He told them he had
tramped all round London, doing
odd job*. “I knew nothing of what
had happened,” he said, “but, hav
ing nothing to do this morning, I
thought I would call and see how my
wife was. I am very much alive.”
RIGHT IN THEIR LINE
■ ■■■—■■ ■ ■ ■ "| 1
“How did your baseball game
come out?”
“They mopped the ground with

“I thought they would when I
heard you calling them a scrub
nine.”
GOOD DIPHTHERIA REMEDY.
Take green coperas (not slack
ened) nnd burn on a store lid until
it becomes of a yellowish brown color
and can lie pulverized. Take ono
level tenspoonful, the same of burnt
I alum (the alum should bo taken olf
the stove just liofore it stops boiling
as it is then stronger.) Put tho
above in nn earthen bow! with ono
tenspoonful of sulphur, one teacup
ful of white sugar, the same of boil
ing water; let cool; put in alight
bottle and shuke before using.
Direction*—ln extreme cases give
one-fourth teospoon every hour; keep
outside of throat cool to keep down
fever. (Ice water with saltpeter in
is good for this purpose.) Ohango
cloth every two or three minutes.
To prevent diphtheria—Give one
teaspoonful twice a day for ono
week every two or three months.
People, while exposed, should keep
taking the above.
NO OCCASION FOR ALARM.
“Mercy!” ejaculated the woman
who had just coins aboard the train,

“It’s the southern extension of

“I got him in here when the con
