1 directly traceable to the water supply
During the past five years numerous
epidemics of typhoid fever have re-
suited from the use of unfiltered sur-
‘ face waters, notably those at Butler,
i Pa; Ithaca, N. Y.; New Haven, Conn;
Jamaica Plains. Mass; Plymouth. Pa;
Columbus. 0., and many others that
might be named. The advisability of
‘ liltering public water supplies is un-
l'quastlonabie. and today in some for-
. eign countries it has become an en-
‘ tahlished national law

“here water has been need. there has

extract is from an editorial in the lies-
ton Herald. August 23',19‘:04
t‘Scarcely any subject relating to the
sanitary- welfare offifiphbllc, and to
the vital security of happiness to com-
munities, is receiving more attention
than the purification of the water sup-
ply. Engineers and chemists are
working at it with zeal, and the out-
break of epidemics thht destroy many
lives and are demonstrated to be caus-
ed by an infected water supply for
nishes a constant stimulation to their
labor. Such achievements do more
for the world that the most glorious
wars, by as much as it is more noble
to save lives than to destroy them."
The city of Butler. Pa. used a lil-
tered water supply. On August 28.
1904, heavy rains caused a break in
dam. The latter part of October the
shortage of water caused the water
- company to pump water direct from
the river into the water system. Neith-
er the board of health nor the em-
lens were notified of this. Two weeks
after typhoid fever began to.develop
to an alarming'extant. The boaid. of
health investigated and found that no-
filtered ‘water was being used ahd that
typhoid existed on some of the tribu-
taries of the .river. The board of
hesith'notiiled everyone to boil the
water before using. Citizens generally
followed the advice; some did not
believe that the water was the cause.
therefore disregarded the warning. But
the deadly work had been accomplish-
ed and by December 2,1123 cases
were reported and 111 deaths resulted.
It is by experience of others that
‘ We should try and profit thereby mak-
ing progress and betterment in things
that concern large numbers. In bring-
ing this subject to our readers' notice. ‘
it is pertinent» to add that all praise
‘la due to our board of water com-
miaaioners. who have faithfully and
constantly workedd'er the past We;
years with but one goal to reach, that
being to serve the people with good ,‘
pure water.
The following extract is from a lot .
for in the September lat issue of The
Sentinel by a visitor, signed J. B. Bi:

DeIl Farmer causes Coaster-nation in
English Church.
80m years ago, in an agricultural”l
district.in England, there lived a far-
mer who wanted to sell one of his
cows.‘ There was not, at that time, a
weekly paper in which he could Id-
vertlle. so be resolved to follow a lo-
cal custom, and ask the vicar of the
parish when giving out the notice. at
church to advertise the cow.
"Yes." farmer " said the vicar. "i
should be willing to bilge you. but you
don' t attend my church."
Presently. however, they struck a
bursitis. that the vicar should adver-
tise the cow, and than the man, in re-
turn, should go to church. Now, un~
fortunately. the farmer was deaf. and
on the following Sunday. when the
vicar gave out the bana of marriage
between Joseph So-and So, bachelor,
and Sarah So-and 86', spinster. the far-
mcr took it for granted that the vicar
was giving out the particulars of his
cow. and shouted out:
“You might as well say wlflle you
are about it. that she is a most gentle
creature and entirely free from vice."

SUCTION.
People often. speak of chimneys

tion of a pump. There is not so much
harm in these expressions. except that
they are liable to lead us away from
the true state of affairs. But in truth
there is no such thing as suction Suc-
tlnn is merely partial or entire absence
of pressure in one place Which. enables

HOW THE VILLAIN EDOAPED.
As a burglar was trying to break
into a house of a citizen of a foreign
city the framework of the second-story
window to which he clung gave way
and he fell and broke his leg. Limp-
ing before the justice the next day he
lndignantly demanded that the own-
er of the house be punished.
“You shall have justice." said the
judge.
The owner, being summoned. claimed
that the pccident was due to the poor
woodwork. and that the carpenter. not
he. was to blame.
"That sounds reasonable." said the
judge: “let the carpenter be called.’
The carpenter admitted that the
window was defective. "But how
could i do better." said be, “when the
mason-work was out of plumb?"
“To be sure, " replied the judge. and
he sent for the mason .
The mason could- not diany that the
(oping was crooked He explained
that while he was placing it in posi-
tion his attention was distracted from
his work by a pretty girl, in a blue
tunic. who passed on the other side
of the street.
“Then you are blameless.“ said the
judge. and the girl was sent for.
"i admit. " said he. “that i am pretty,
but that's not my fault. and if the blue
tunic attracted the mason's attention
the dyer. not i. is responsible."
“That‘s good logic." said the judge;
"let the dyer be called."
The dyer came and pleaded guilty.
"Take the wretch." said the judge
to the thief. “and hang him from his
own doorpost." ~
‘ .
The pebple applauded this wise sen-
!ence and hurried off to cary it out.
Soon they returned and reported that
hills (dyer was too tail to be hung from
S .
"Fin a short dyer and hang him
instead." said the judge with a yawn;
“lct justice be done at any cost. "

he is inclined to talk.
