The "Straight of It."
While there was something of
a storm in a few sections of the
county when tho vaccination law
was put into effect, most people
h.tve uow accepted it, even when
they did not approve of the meth
od the lawmakers took to accom
plish the result, rather than al
low their children to grow up
without tho advantages of the
puhl!c fchool.
In cise a child is vaccinated,
and it don't take, then what? The
following letter from the State
Commissioner of Health to the
County Medical Inspector, makes
that pl.in. The letter says
"In boroughs I have suggested
that the third attempt to vaccin
ate bo made in the presence of
the physician of the Board of
Health. If this third attempt
fails the Board of Health physi
cian, acting as a representative of
tho health authorities, permits
the child to attend school.
"In tho rural districts, I have
asked that such cases be referred
to this Department that we may
have our County Medical Inspec
tor or someone deputized by him
investigate them, and if they are
honest ones, to authorize the ad
mission of the children to school."
'E.C. Do Witt & Co" of' Chicago,"
at whose laboratory Kodol is pre
pired, assure us that this re
markablo digestant and correct
ive for the fctomach, conforms
fully to all provisions of the Na
tional Pure Food and Drug Law;
The Kodol. laboratory is a very
large one, but if all the sufferers
from Indigestion and stomach
troublos could know the virtues
of Kodol, It would be impossible
for the manufacturers to keep up
with the dei.and. Kodol is sold
