ONE OUT OF TEN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) without having submitted to this pro- , ceedure. one of eacn ten or you who read this may expect to fall ill with typhoid fever between now and New Year's day. year I sent out this warning about this time, and in Novemher_and December the relative# of two persons who had fallen i victims to typhoid fever, took the trou- 1 ble to write to me and confirm my prophesy. With meekness and humility’ they pleaded guilty to their own wicked contributory negligence in the criminal responsibility for the typhoid disaster and death which supervened. i “Typhoid fever has been stamped out in the European and American armies with the anti typhoid vaccine, a practical and valuable proof with which to confront the fanatical theorists who object to its use. "Vacationists who use it will be free of the consequences which befell one of my patients, Mr. F. N., who asks me to print his experience as a concrete lesson to others. "This gentleman refused to take the anti-typhoid vaccine last July, although three others who went with ( him to the country, accepted it reluctantly upon my insistence. Six others —ten in alt —made up the vacation party. One of these had had typhoid in childhood. “In August two of them were stricken with typhoid fever beside Mr. F. N., who fell ill in November. The throe vaccinated with antityphoid returned to work and three others who had not been inoculated ‘because of religious scruples,’ boasted that they did not need it. and were just as well off as the three I had vaccinnated. “One of these last three is now—more than a year later —in the hospital with typhoid. One of the others is ill and outr of sorts, ready, perhaps. next year or later, to have the disease, and 'the other has’ wisely come to his senses and taken the injection despite his absence of faith and 'religious scruples.’ “Meanwile, to return to Mr. F. N., he was sick from November to March, and lost the ?100 a week he had previously received, and has been ,unable to earn over |2O a week since March —all because he refused to receive the harmless and helpful antityphoid vaccine.” Along the same line, is the warning of the Chicago health officer, who. as stated in Sunday’s Tribune, says that sixty per cent of the typhoid fever reported during the past week, were 1 contracted while the vicitms were out 1 of the city, most of them being on vacations. After compiling the figures yesterday Health Commissioner Robertson issued a special warning to tourists and vacationists. Dr. Robertson said that the disease is chiefly contracted from food and drink, and he advised all vacationists to take the anti-ty-phold treatment before leaving the city. Persons who are unable to pay for the treatment may obtain it free at the Iroquois Memorial hosptital, 23 North Market street. Dr. Robertson also advised automobile tourists to carry with them calcium hydrochlorite tabieis for treating drinking water. The tablets may be obtained at the health department, with full directions as to their use.' FOURTH ANNUAL CHAUTAUQUA (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) man. and it is by a man who is making it his life study Tuesday's Program. Tuesday the morning sessions for children will open with an hour's work under the direction of Miss Franc Dunning. Tuesday’s musical feature will be the Weatherwax Brothers and Charles Stelzle will speak in the evening on “The Church and the Man Outside.” He is one of the strongest friends of the laboring men in the country. He belongs to many unions and has always fought the working man’s battles, wherever ' there was a real wrong. Charles Stelzle is unique among students and writers on sociological and kindred topics. Born in the tenement house district, and living on the east side of New York City for twenty-five years he is familiar with the social conditions of the masses. For eight years he was a machinist in the largest, shop in the city, where lie had unusual opportunity to study the industrial problem at first hand. For years he was at the head of the department- of church and labor of the Presbyterian church. Since October 1. 1913. Mr. Stelale has been engaged in work as a consulting sociologist, independent, of any board or organization, assisted by a staff of specialists. The Weatherwax Brothers' quartet is one of the best known male quar- | tets under Redpath management today. For nearly twenty years these' brothers have been singing together' in all parts of the United States.]
