The disease Los clearly separated from ty- Xs. fever, a disease which re- fembles it somewhat, in the for- tiPS of the last century. This fine’' disease, typhus fever, is now almost extinct The cause of typhoid fever is a small germ klledthe typhoid ge^ TMs ^e-m was discovered by Eberth inlSSO. ^ , Typhoid tever is one of the most wide spread of the infec- 't-ous diseases. It occurs m the tropics and in far northern and southern latitudes, at sea-level and in the mountains, in the city ond in the country, and practical- fv wherever man may go and lo cal conditions do not prevent the d'ssennination of the disease. A temperature of 80 to 9-5 degrees does, bv increasing germ growth and more particularly by bring ing flies increase the number of cases of typhoid. With the sum mer conme flies and typhoid. Dr. Osier’s saying, “Typhoid fever is the best index to the sanitary intelligence of a community,*' is axiomatic with sanitarious. We lose 35,000 lives every year in the United States from typhoid fev er; in addition we have 350,000 others sick on an average of six weeks apiece. Certainly the ty phoid problem is a grave concern for our country to grapple with. But what does it mean, not to the country, State or community, but to you, just YOU ? We speak now to the man whose bonds of sympathy with the general mass of humanity are so few, so short, and so attenuated that he is con fer himseif and family only; his public spirit finds its fullest ex pression in his unuttered pray er- “God bless me and my wne, My son John and his wife,— Us four and no more." And what is the least you can do in the fight? “Knowledge is power,” is the power that puts to flight this unseen foe, the ty phoid germ, which in six years kills more people than were kill ed on both sides during the four years of civil war; aisd which causes the loss of |350,000,000 to the United States ievery year. ^uip yourself for your part in this fight with the knowl^ge of how the disease picks off its vic tims, and how it may be prevent ed, and then, according to your circumstances use this knowl edge. A germ, the BACILLUS .TYPOSUS, causes every case of typhoid; and without it no case would ever occur. There are a number of epidemics clearly trace able to milk, sometimes to water. Remember, that when the fiy leaves the places of filth to enter 1 the kitchen or dining room to Vight on your food he doesn,t wipe his feet. Remember again, that in the open privy—the chief loaf ing place of the fly between meals—the germs of typhoid fev er and other intestinal diseases are deposited. Typhoid fever is a preventable diseise. For evesy ease of this disease, for every death from this disease, some one is respon- sibie. — (State Board of Health.) Of Great Iraporteace to tke Soadi. Knoxville, Tenn,, July 5.—The Southern Rail wa^_will make an attractive exhibit shoviing the agricultural, forest, and mineral resources, and mianufactured pjo- diicts of the Southeast at the Ap palachian Exposition to be held at Knoxville, September 11 to October 1, 1911. This exhibit will contain handsome displays of cereals, cotton, tobacco, leg umes, vegetables, and fruits and especial attention will be given to forest products and manufac tured specimens of v7oods. The exhibit will show in a compi^ hensive way the possibilities and advantages of the Southeastern states and should prove a power ful advertisement for the section as large numbers of visitors from ]3oints outside the Southeast are expected at the exposition. At the same time the exhibit will serve the very useful pur- l>ose of calling the attentioh of the people of the South to the ^eat opportunities which exist in their own country. This is a feature which tiie management of the Southern Railway consid ers of the highest importance as nothing can have a more power ful effect in discouraging emi gration from the South to less favored sections than a thorough knowledge of the South and the many reasons which make this the best section of the country in which to live and prosper. li..^...1.1 .....I- —^ iWiK'. -hWj C^paiSB Asakst' H«okworai .. I '^ Disease. ^ The North Carolina Campaign against hookworm disiiaaeis mak ing steady progress. Thie num ber of cases of the disease re ported as treated by. physicians has grown during the past twelve months from 3,250 to 21,000; the number of doctors trciating the disease from 183 to 597’; and the number of people microscopical ly examined for it in the State Laboratory of Hygiene from 500 to ^,812. Seven thousand two hui^dred and seventy-six of the latter number were found to have hookworm infection, and 2543 showed others of the eight intes tinal parasites. Though some of these were found quite frequent ly the hookworm infections were found three times as frequently as all the others combined. Thir ty-one per cent, of the 23.312 ex amined showed hookworm in fection. Of the number examin ed, 1,000 weire State troops, 1, - 000 were orphans, 1,000 children in the State schools for the blind, deaf and dumb, and the reforma tory. Nearly 1,000 insanes ha,ve been examined. The other 19, - 000 are largely made up of public school children taken at random. Terrible Picture ot Sttfleriog Clinton, Ky.—Mrs. M. C. Me Elroy, in a letter from Clinton, writesFor six yeare, I was a sufferer from female troubles. I could not eat, and could not stand on my feet, without suffering great pain. I had lost hope. After using Cardui a week, I began to improve. Now I feel better than in six years." Fifty years of success in actual practice, .is positive proof, furnished by those who have us^ it, that Cardui can always be relied on for re lieving female weakness and di^ase. Try Cardui, today, now! Fft. Hines, Ala.—In a letter from this place, Mrs., Eula Mae Brad ley says: “I used to spit up all I ate. I was tired and sleepy all the time. My head ached, and I could hardly drag around. Since taking Cardui, this has entirely quit, and now I feel quite fit." iVlrs. Bradley suffered from ner vous indigestion. Cardui builds up the nervous system, and strengthens the womanly consti tution. That's why Cardui help ed Mrs. Bradley and why it will help you. Try it.

[Philadelj-h a Inquirer ] The demagogic style is the most immediately effective, but experience shows and observa tion attests that the impr^ion which it creates is not endurin|r. Mr: Biyan spoke to imimehce eiPDwds wherever he went and^ what he said was invariably ap- platided. Yet he w^ repiidiated at the polls. Henry Clay and James Gillespie Blaine were among the most popular met! and ablest (Mratofta of tiimr day, yet they never attained the presiden cy, and it needed only a single reverse nmterially to impsun al most to destroy, the incompara ble prestige of Theodore Roose velt. But President Taft, with his consistent appeal to reason rather than sentiment, is grow ing in strength every day, and Kis public utteraftceS command a constantly increiasing tribute of nflence, admiration d,nd respect, liis calm judicial, argumentative addresses not elicit the kind of response by which a different kind of oratory is customarily at tended, but they satisfy and con vince the consideration v/hich they invite, and persuasively il luminate and elucidate the sub ject which they discuss. ‘ He has spoken three times on his president trip, on currency reform, on international arbitra tion and on Canadian reciprocity, and no one with an open mind can have read his remarks on these several occasions without being impressed with their poise, theur pertinence, their dimity and their force. The President is not an emotional speaker, but he is what is better, a lucid and logically convincing one, and there can be no question what ever that the qualities of leader ship with which he is endowed are commanding among the i^- erican people an everswelling volume of appreciation. Progressive Couaties Take Up the The opening this week of three dispensaries and one hospital for the free examination and treat ment for hoekworm -disease marks a new.devel(^mfcnt in the cam{^gh a^nst hookwonn dis ease.
