The principal feature of this appar

gives the waking signal, but also starts
the tea brewing. The clock is connected
with a spirit lamp, so that when the
alarm goes off it releases a shutter
which covers the spirit lamp, and as it
flies back the shutter strikes a match

Though modern medical sclence has
decided that pneumonia is an infec
tious disease that fact need not ters
rify if one take ag little trouble to
learn something about tue diesase. It |
ts produced by a speclal microbe the
existence of which is so common in
the mouth of even healthy indiwiduals
that it is considered almost as a nor
mal inhabitant of the upper part of
the digestive tract. One reason why |
the saliva of a human being ts likely
to prove fatal to animams if Injected
subcutaneously is because the special
property of the germ isto produce pus
whenever it gains entrance direct.y
under the tissues. It does not pro-
duce a purulent inflammation in pneu-
monia, because it lies on the mucous
membrane of the lungs, but does not
gain an entrance into the tissues
Sometimes it finds its way into the
blood, but does not produce serious ree |
sults unless the patient is mach rum
down. i
From these facts it can be seen that
the problem of the method by which |
pneumonia is contracted is exceeding
1y difficult. The presence of the germ
is not sufficient alone to produce the
disease, but there must be a certain
predisposition on the part of the pa
tient, followed by the deposition of
this germ on a mucous membrane.
Though the method of the dis ribue
tion of the disease is not known def
fnitely it is acquired by mingling with
crowds at a time when one is extreme~
iy tired, or when, for some reason of
other, the interval since taking food
has been longer than usual.
Dr. Anders, who is an authority on
climatology, says in an article on lobar
pneumonia: *‘The coincidence o ex
isting low temperatures, high baroe
metric pressure, the direction and ve-
locity of the wind and maximum mor-
tality frcm pneumonia is so uniform.y
constant as to suggest a close an di»
rect relation between thei combined
influence and the progress of mortal-
ity from pneumonia. But,” he adds,
“the major influence by the seasons,
however, is probably not direct. ‘hat
is, by a lowering of the bodily tem-
perature resistance due to the low
temperature high barometric pressure,
direction and velocity of the wind,
etc., but indirect, namely, by bringing
about that effective element in the
causation, concentration and increased
virulence of the specific poison in cone
sequence of closed donors and windows
and lack of free ventilation.”
From these facts we see that we
may procure immunity from pneu-
monia by healthy living, and that san.
itary conditions are needed rather
than protective sernms. The Jananese
give us a lesson in this, for they are
essentially a peop'e who live in fresh
alr and sunshine. Personal cleanliness

tuberculosis and pneumonia, which are

DEATH RATE OF INFANTS.
& Is Increasing in Spite of the Beat
~ Efforts of Modw@m-"4_
Science. >

In spite of the increase .n the Pas
terurization of milk, in spite of the rac?
that in some circles of society there is a
growing knowicuge about the care of
Infants, the death rate of those under
two years all over the countiy, says tue
Philadelphia Inquirer, is so large as to
cause great alarm. One of the most
eminent specialists arnounces:
“If 100 mothers of sound health would
agree to submit the entire care of their
infants to one direction I warrant that
not one of the children would, if properly
brougnt into the world, die of summer
disease.”
This is an astonishing statement, but
{ft can be practically verified by nearly
every practitioner whose experience
with the children has been large. It
seems strange that though the human
race is thousands of years old. there is so
little knowledge on the part of mothers
a8 to the proper care of infants. It is
because every mother depends on here
self, her instincts or the poor experience
of others to help her children through
the critical portion of the year. In these
days physicians are doing thelr best to
Inform mothers that the use of raw milk
in summer time 1s daugerous—almost
criminal. Especially is this the case in
that portion of the city where children
aever get fresh mill. Little milk is
served in this city that is not 24 hours
old and since mach of it is not kept on
ice the process of souring begins soon.
This process is effected by the ex-
traordinary development of bacteria,
which affect the intestines of children
and bring on that long list of summer
complaints, Wherever there is intelli-
gent care taken of children and wise
supervision is exercised there isno more
fear of dysentery in the summer time
than there is of smallpox. Yet many
thousands of children die every summer
because of neglect. There is no mother
Ip this city so poor that she cannot send
a postal card to the board of health
for its instructions on the subject and
to follow them out only costs less than
the ordinary practice, but is sure to re-
sult in benefit to the infant. (
The difficulty in impressing mothers
is the fact that they assert that they
know more about children than any
doctor who ever lived and insist upon
practices which are certain to bring dis-
ease and probably death. It is time to
start a school of instruction for
