How The Body Kills Germs.

Germs chat get into the body are killed in two ways—by the white corpuscles of the blood, and by a germ-killing substance that is in the blood. Just what this substance is, we do not know. The blooil of a healthy person always has some germ-killing substance in it to ward off the attack of disease. The fountain head of life is the stomach. A man who has a weak and impaired stomach and who does not properly digest his food will soon find that his blood has become weak and impoverished, and that his whole body is improperly and insufficiently nourished. To put the body in healthy condition, to feed the system on rich, red blood

THIRTY-EIGHT SUICIDES IN MONTH OF JULY

There Were Also Nine Murders in State A Total of 218 Accidental Deaths—Typhoid is the Most Prevalent.

The report of the State Board of Health for July, which will soon be issued, will show that there were 38 suicides and 9 murders in the state during July. A total of 218 accidental deaths were reported.

The disease prevalence in the state during the month was as follows: Typhoid, diarrhea, rheumatism, tonsilitis, bronchitis, tuberculosis, cholera morbus, cholera infantum and dysentery. The death rate for the last month showed a lessening from that of the same month in 1911, when a rate of 12.7 was shown.

There were 306 deaths from tuberculosis at a rate of 112.8. Pneumonia took a toll of 65. Ten cases of suspected rabies were treated at at laboratory of hygiene of the State Board. Thirty cases of small pox were reported.

The report shows that in July there were 2,810 deaths in the state, a rate of 12.1 to each 100,000 of the population. In cities the rate was higher, being 13.2, with deaths reaching 1,326. The country death rate was only 11.3, with a total of 1,484 deaths.

As in the reports for the births in the state during the same month, the death report showed the northern counties to have a higher average than the central or southern counties. Such records are unusual and health officials are unable to give reasons therefor. Formerly the higher rates have appeared in the southern counties of the state.

Ran Past Hold-Up Men. Three robbers tried to hold up E. J. Knapp and a party from Cincinnati on the National road east of here a few days ago, but were prevented by the driver of the automobile, who started it at full speed and almost ran over one of the would-be robbers.

6ANG OF PICKPOCKETS FOLLOWING THE FAIRS

Professionals Have Been at Work At Almost Every County Fair This Year.

John Knotts, a Rush county farmer, was relieved of $14.75 las? Thursday at the Henry county fair, during a jam around one of the buildings. Three men surrounded him and easily secured his money.

A little later one of the same gang snatched a purse from a woman, with a small amount of money in it, and started to run, but was captured by detective. He first gave an assumed name and address in Chicago, but a telegram showed that this was false and he confessed. It is thought he will be released, .as the woman whose purse was snatched can not be found to prosecute the case. The surrounding county fairs this summer have been worked systematically by a gang of professional pickpockets.

It might be well for visitors at the Horse Show in this city to be careful about their pocketbooks, as no doubt the profesionals at work at the fairs, or some of them, will be on hand.

The best wheat threshed in this part of the county was that belonging to Joe Personette, of East Germantown, last Saturday.
