DANGER IN DRIVEN WELLS.
“The typboid bacteria are de
stroyed by common water bac
teria—a water rich in bacteria
will destroy typhoid bacteria
much more quickly thana water
fairly free from bacteria. A
driven well, infected with ty
phoid, is more dangerous than a
surface water similarly infected.
as the well by virtue of its nor
mal low bacterial content will re
quire more time to cleanse itself
of typhoid bacteria than the sur
face water, which is richer in
bacteria.
“Practically all cases of ty
phoid fever “are caused by the
use of infected food or water; the
food or water simply actingasa
chemical carrier. Hardly more
than 60 per cent. or 75 per cent.
of cases are caused from monpo
potable wate. The are otber
carriers of typhoid infection than
water., I;fection of the food
supply is avery conmon method.
There have been up to da.c
196 epidemics of typhoid fever
reported caused by poliuted milk,
The way milk can become pollut
ed is, briefly, as follows: The
cow can not acquire typhoid fev
er, and the milk leaving the cow
is absolutely free from germs of
typhoid fever. However, in
was“ing the caps in which the
milk is stored, polluted water is
frequently used. Typhoid bac
teria do rot increase in number
in water. How. ver typhoid
bac'iria do increase in milk
and they increasez rapide
ly. A haif teaspoonful of pollat
ed water in a five-galion milk can
will in twenty-four hours create
millions ard millions of typhoid
bacteria. Such epidemlcs bave
been frequently reported.
“We could cite many exawples
\of this kind—the principal iavolv
ed is the same in all cases., We
'must bave some mechanical car
rier of a portion of infected excre
ta—the carrier may be water,
food, linen, the hands insects or
any of the hundreds of other
agencies that may be cited, but
iin all cases it is a mechanical car
rier.)

A Claim Hunter Who Brought Tom
Reed to Terms.
The woman with the claim has
already begun to haunt the corridor
in front of the office of Speaker
Cannon and Thad Mahon, chairman
of the committee on war claims.
She is comparatively young and
very fair to look upon, but that does
not constitute her guarantee of suc
cess. She has something better—
namely, persistence. It is persist
ence that wins in any effort to get
the government to pay its just debts.
She literally haunts the corridors
and follows the speaker and the
chairman. Somebody told her about

Mahon was afraid of Reed—that

lest Reed explode his wrath against
him for presuming to repert en &
bill so old as that. One day Teed

about the matter. Mahon pretend

Sir Henry's Interview.
The advance man with Sir Henry
Irving on one of his tours was in
despair at the actor’s resolution not
to be interviewed while on the road.
Sir Henry had been misquoted in
gome important interview. Strenu
ous persuasion finally won him,
however, to consent {o answer writ
ten questions if handed in through
his business manager. This scheme
worked well for awhile, although it
was somewhat burdensome. One
day the business manager neglected
to read the list of questions handed
in by an offended interviewer who
preferred his “material” at first
hand. Sir Henry read:
“Which is the worst enemy of the
stage, the critic or the actor 7”
“What relation has the nebular
hypothesis to the halo of spot light
that surrounds the head of the
star?”
“Do you think ‘Hamlet’ would
take well if done in musical com
edy ?”
Sir Henry shook his head sadly,
and the “written questions™ scheme
came to a sudden end.—New York
Press.
Ruling Passion.
‘Representative James of Ken
tucky gives a strong illustration of
“the ruling passion strong in
death” in one of his favorite yarns.
“An old Kentuckian was sick,
and his neighbors and family felt
that his demise was only a question
of a few hours or days. As the
meat was running low, a steer was
butchered, and when his son came
ix(xlto the sickroom the old man ask
ed:
““What have you been doing,
John?’ :
«“Killing the steer,” was the re
ly. ¥
L ‘What did you do with the
hide ?’ asked the old man faintly.
“‘Put it in the barn. Going to
gell it by and by.’

the season, Beginning APRIL 16.
This horse is owned by a Stock Company at Tifton, that was
formed in the interest of improving the live stock of this section,
and is without doubt the finest horse that has ever been seen i
this section. He was bred by the German Government and was
imported to this country in October, 1905. Come and bring your
mares, raise your own stock and have good stock to sell instead of
sending your money to other sections for stock not as good as you
can raise at home for much less cost. This horse is under the
management of Mr.J. L. Jay, Jr., and will be handled by Mr. B.
