J FOOD, FINGERS AND FLIES. J n Three ef the Feotore Meet AeWve la. Spreading Disease. - There are three principal ways la which disease germs are carried from person to person, and these ways may be easily remembered by three catch words food, fingers and flies. The most important foeda which car. 17 disease art those which are eaten! raw, alace too rough ceekinf deatroya! disease ferns and most cooked foods, are only dangerous when they hare been Infected in the kitchen after cook- lng. Among raw foods, too, many, Uke oraneea, an safe laeeaase they are' peeled before eating. Of all foods the meat dMsgeroua arej water and milk, because tbey are of-) ten polluted (by sewage in tne case oti water, by human contact In the easel ot mUk), because the are drank j promptly without time for the) disease germs to die out and because, osaally in the case of water snd often la the! case of milk, Uey are set cooked. ' The second way in which disease ( germs are commonly spread la by means of contact betrwen psopM thenv selves. . Fingers, in the catch phrase, which all who Talis their health ah odd try to bear In mind, stands not only for the flttgers thenWres, bat to all sorts of ways In which dssease germs may be exchanged. - In measles snd whooping; cough and scarlet fever and diphtheria and tuber culosis and many other disuses the germs are present in the foe tod, throat and are spread from person to person by the Angers, which go too of ten to the mouth and nose, by drink ing ctips and spoons and other thing which too often are used tn common and by tha one spray thrown out from the month in coughing and sneealngJ In typhoid fever and diarrhea and sim ilar diseases ths germs an found la the InteetlnaJ discharges, and here, too, soiled fingers Duty sn important fart 1 In the trananusaioa of the disease. The third common way In which dis ease germs an spread Is by means of insects, files an perhaps the most Important Insect gem carriers la moat states. They often pick up infected material on their legs and bodies snd carry It to food, and when then la no good system of sewage disposal tbey may play a part In the spread ot such dlaeaaes aa typhoid fever. A certain kind of mosquito carries malaria, and this, too, Is Important in certain dis tricts. In tropical countries a whole J host of diseases Is carried by Insects. 1 Jtew Tork American.
