It is evident that this is one of the

summer, when New York was threat

Night and Day Work.
To prevent even tho mildest cases
from passing tho barrier, steamships
were held up when any on board fe.lt 1
tho slightest indisposition. Until tlio
cause of that indisposition was found
tho boat was kept anchored in the bay. i
Some of thc boats thus held up wore
ocean liners carrying a largo number
of passengers, all of whom were eager
to reach Now York with the least pos-,
slble delay. This meant night and day j
work for tho'doctors, especially for tho
bacteriologists, for the test for cholera 1
involves protracted labor besides sev
eral hours for growing cultures. J
Samples would perhaps bo brought
to the laboratory in the evening. Tho
bacteriologists would start in after din
ner and work till midnight. In these ,
emergency cases, after a few hours
sleep snatched at tho station itself, the ,
doctors would start in ngain at 4
o'clock, so that tho Investigation might
be completed at 8, nnd tho complaining
passengers could be landed nfter break

effort nnd occasional spasmodic strain,
Is not only likely to make the man

cases a man hy various methods may
to a considerable extent protect blm

taglon from smallpox. In all cases
systematic cleanliness will go a long
way toward preventing infection. But
tho strictest attention to these prin-1
ciples will not prevent contagion when
n man has to carry a sick child ashore
