How Diphtheria Spreads.
The city 1. ater supply has nothing to
do with the causation or spread of diph
theria, except, possibly, as a contami-
nated water affects the general health of
the individual and so lowers the resist-
ing power of the system. The increase
of disease every fall is due lafigely to
“catching cold,” to vitiatcd air in
dwellings, caused by closing doors and
windows that have been kept open all
summer, and to similar causes that tend
to produce a sensitive condition" of the
throat, favorable to the growth ”of the
diphtheria germ. There should be added
to these causes the diminishing hours of
sunlight as the year wanes. The direct
rays of the sun kill the diphtheria germ,
but moisture and darkness favor its
growth and multiplication. Good house-1
wives, who open windows and shades to:
the free access of sun and air, are prac--
'.tical sanitarians, fighting contagion and
infection with the best and most potent
of all disinfectants. That cats, poultry,
parrots and some other of the lower ani-.
mals are susceptible to diphtheria, and
often convey it to children and others, is
beyond question.
nois state board of _ health for the sup-
pression and prevention of diphtheria
have recognized this fact for years, and
direct the removal of birds and other.
domestic pets and the eiclusion of cats
from the sickroom. The precaution is a
Wise ene, based upon observed -facts.'—

_ “The Bridge” Born of Sorrow.
In writing of ' an evening with Long-
fellowgand “How He Came to Write.
His Best Known Poems” Hezekiah But-
terworth in Ladies’ Home Journal says:
“My poem entitled ‘The Bridge,’ ” said
Longfellow in effect, “was written in ‘
sorrow, which made me feel for the
loneliness of others”. I was a widower
at the time, and I ’used sometimes to go
over the bridge to Boston evenings to
meet friends and to return near mid-
night by the same way. The way was
silent, save here and there a belated
footstep. The sea rose or fell among the
wooden piers, and there was a ‘great
furnace on the Brighton hills whose red.
light wasreflected bythe waves. It was
on such a late solitary walk that the
spirit of the poem came upon me. The
bridge has been greatly altered, but the
place of it is the same.’
Let’ s ta’ e the instant by the forward
top, for we are old, and on our quickest
decrees the inaudible and noiseless foot
of time steals ere we can eflect them. -—
