of recent origin. Sporadic or scattered ‘

during the last decade that the in

ent epidemic in New York City, on,
account of its magnitude and viru-
lence, has awakened the residents of
many communities to the danger of
the importation of the disease into,
their own midst. This danger is real.
but if due precautions are exercised
it is believed that the epidemic will
subside.
The actual control of the preach
[epidemic must be left to the city.
