Ia Bema et the tewas aad vil lages of thla oeunty, diphtheria la a common malady at present Many chil dren have succumbed te it the past few k. aad It is reported the disease la the township near tbe links county llaa ta tbe bexi ibidb; te aa epiueneia. An article ta a recent number of Seitnea Illustrates bow diphtheria Is spread by cats. It says domestic animals have often aet only been suspected but found guilty et spreading Inleotlea, In hi report ea the recent villained prevalenea of diphtheria la Enfield, England, Dr. Bruce Lew, of the medical department of the local government beard, Incident ally elates tbat during the ocn ecn tlaaaaea of the epldemtecata were observed te Buffer la ermsleertble numbers from Illness; and In December, 1837, and la Jan nary, 1888, there waa a large mortality among these animal, se much ae tbat the attention of tbe dust contractor was directed te It He stated tbat never la bla Srevieus experience bad be seen se many ead eats In tbe dust heaps. Seme house holds, seeing thelr eata 111, destroyed them. Though there were no known eases et dlphtheilaoeouirlng In ths practice or the veterinary enrgeoea at Enfield, yet they sew many ones et 'influenza' at this time among animals. Tbe following is aa Illus tratien of tbe possible eonneetlon between diphtheria in children and In eata: A little boy wss taken 111 with what tamed out ultimately te be fetal diphtheria. On the first day of his Illness; the eat, whleb was In the room at the time, licked the emit ea the fleer. In a few days (tbe child meanwhile died) tbe animal was notleed te be HI, and, ber suffering being se severe, and se similar te these of the dead boy, the owner destrej ed her. During the early part of Its lllneas, thla eat had been let out nights In the bsek yard, as usual. A few dya later tbe cat of a neighbor, who lived a few doers fsrtber off was notleed te be 111. It bad also been out in tbe bsck yards at night. Tee second animsl, whlcib, however, recov ered, was the pet and playfellow of four little girl, who, grieved at the Illness of their favorite, nursed It with great eare. All four gltla developed diphtheria, the mother being oenvinoed tbat they get It from the eat and, Indeed, no ether known souree of oentaot with infection oeuld be discovered. It Is easy te Imagine aits ostehlng infectious dls cases like dlphtberls. when we remember hew elten milk and ether unused feed from tbe slck-roeai 1 given te the eat, or by some people thrown out In tbe bsek yard for the benefit et their neighbor' eata if they hsve none et tbelr own, It I a frequent oeourrenoo te see children carry ing eats In their arm, and even kissing them. It la obvious, that, If the cats were 111 with diphtheria, tbe children, under aueh circumstance, would almost Inevita bly contraet tbe disease.
