comes with considerable iutorest nt tho
prosout tlmo
Infection may tako placo from tho
socrotious of tho respiratory tract nud
possibly from other secretions also from
ooutact with tho surfaco of tho body or
exfoliations from tho simo Tho
dangor of Infection Is constant from the
first appearance of tho dlseaso until the
process ot desquamation or peeling is
oomploted This may until at
least two mouths have passod siuco the
first appenrnuco of tho dlseaso Tho
last of the desquamation is usually from
tho hands nud foot
Smallpox pntients should bo isolated
lu a special quarnntiuo hospital Such
hospital should bo of simple cheap con
struction Id sotno isolated placo romoto
from tho public highway or rosldonce
proporty Its furnishings Bhould bo
plain simplo aud cheap in order that
thoy may bo completely destroyed by
burning when tho time for their dlslai
foctlou comes
Connected with such hospital should
bo at least two well trained aud respon
sible nurses aud an oatsido uttondont
or go botwoou to look after the sup
plies etc for tho hospital It is wise to
have two outside attendants one to
servo during the day and tho other
during tho night they should act as
guards as woll us attendants aud be
glveu polioo authority There must be
no direct communication between tho
quarnntiuo hospital aud tho outside
world Tho outside attendants should
see to It thut the wnuts of tho pntiouts
nud nurses aro all supplied Tho pas
sago of anything from the hospital to
tho outsido world letters notos books
papersolothlug etc must bo absolutely
forbidden
All food must bo prepared nud dishes
washed by the nurses or other qnnrnn
tiued attendants A pit should bo dug
near tho hospital aud nil refuse excreta
etc should bo thrown into it with suffi
cient lime to cover nt enoh time and this
immediately covered with earth
Should tho hospital havo connection
with a soworage system then everything
disposed of iu this wny should bo thor
oughly disiufected with enrbolio acid or
lime for the stools milk of lime is the
best disinfectant everything going from
tho sick room dishes clothing etc
should bo placed in receptacles contain
ing a disinfectant outsidetho sick room
whero an nttoudnut can securo nud re
move them without coming iu contact
with eithor tho uurso or patient
For disiufoctiug dishes a pan contain
ing a fivo per cout solution of enrbolio
ncld in water should be used the wholo
to bo boiled betoro removing the
dishes from tho pan
Tho body of the patient should bo an
notated with some non irrltntiug appli
cation aftor each bath during the eutiro
courso of the disease this as well as the
bath tends to make the patient comfort
able and reduces the danger of Infect
log others by keeping under control the
desquamated pooled off material The
pationt after having thoroughly re
covered should be given a final aud
complete bath aud dressed iu eutirely
fresh clothing throughout All oloth
ing woru by a smallpox patient should
bo burned All individuals who have
been associated with a smallpox patient
for auytimo whatsoever must be placed
in isolation uutll they have had a full
bath and complete change of clothing
Susceptible persons those not recently
vaccinated must be kept nnder obser
vation until the period of incubation
for smallpox has passed two or even
bettor three weeks they should also be
vaccinated without delay
If people who have been exposed to
the auiallpox nf fl nw in uxed residence
Or of suoh a chat aoter AS to u depended
upon in every way to aid in suppressing
the diseai3 they should be placed lu

Physicians must beYery careful not to

whom they are attending tb other indi

essary for a special physician togo into
quarantine while attending smallpox
patients
Disinfection after smallpox should be
carried out as after other infectious
eases All doors and windows except

and sealed with strips of papor pasted
over tho cracks When all Is ready for

Iu disinfecting rooms and buildings
the recently dlscovorod formaldehyde Is
said to bo a most poworful ngout aud is
largely used slnco its discovery The
following concerning the disinfectant is
taken from a pharmaceutical work and
published for tho information of those
who may bo interested
The discovery by Trlllat In 1833 of
tho germicidal powers of formaldehyde
has been abuudantly confirmed It
probably ranks In power as a little in
ferior to corrosivo sublimate although it
certainly is much stronger than carbolic
acid According to K Walker Its one
por cout nquoous solution will destroy
allqmthogeuetic spores within an hour
It is further clalmod for it that it has
the powor of destroying various diseases
It has a powerful action ou various forms
of organic matter ono part iu four
thousand completely decolorizes wine
precipitating extractive nnd coloring
matters
Upon tho higher aumals its notion is
comparatively feeble excepting in that
it Is ono of the most irritating substances
known producing when inhaled even in
nu extremely dilute form violent irrita
tion of tho respiratory mucus mem
branes In practical modlcluo formal
dehyde is useful only as a disinfectant
and it is certninly one of the most effect
ive of known substances when It can be
used with propriety Its gaseous ua
turo especially fits It for employment in
disinfecting rooms for which purposo it
is practically tho only germicide that
should bo employed Van Ermlugen and
Sugg havo shown that books and other
small objects containing tho germs of
diphtheria tuberculosis scarlet fever
smallpox etc wero disinfected by 5o c
of formaldehydo in a litre of air Hor
tou got the same result from 1 c c of
fotmaldohydo to 1500 o o of air It does
not injure books clothes or furniture
Trillat usiug methylio alcohol found
that it was possible to completely disin
fect rooms aud the furniture therein in
six hours by tho consumption of from
four to six litres of alcohol for each 300
cubic motres of the room According
to Walter washing tho hands iu a three
per cent solution followed by nlcohol
renders them completely aseptic whilst
the use of the one per cent solution al
most instantly deodorizes faeces The
two per ceut solution rapidly renders
surgical instruments aseptic without in
jury Tho one per cent solution is
strong ouough for cloanslug vessels
For tho disinfection of apartments the
formaldohyde mayjbe made directly from
methyl alcohol by means of the Trillat
or other automatic lamps such as are for
sole Iu disinfecting a room windows
doors otc should bo tightly closed
closets drawers etc thrown widely
open and all furniture should be so pre
pared as to be reached by the vapors as
completely as possible After the
automatio apparatus is started tho at
tendant of course must leave the apart
ment The danger of fire with a proper
apparatus is theoretical and it can be
entirely obviated by placing tho lamp iu
a largo metal pot or similar uteusol
As tho cost of formaldehyde prepared in
this way amounts to little at least twico
as much methylio alcohol should be used
as would be called for by Trillats state

Oonucctlons hetwoon tho new Cor
liss ongino and tho boilors at the eleotrlo
light station aro being complotod today
and tonight it Is oxpectod that tho now
engine and dynamo will be run for tho
first tlmo Threo gangs of mou havo
been working today making connec
tions and changing wiros aud by even
ing it is hoped that everything will bo
in good working order If howovor
some of the patrons do not receive light
thoy will know that something has in
terfered to proveut The old engino
nud dynnnio aro disconnected nnd if
thore is trouble with tho new thero will
be no possibility of operating the lights
tonight Patrons will certainly endure
the iuconvenionco for ono evening with
out complniut knowing thnt when every
thing is in order they will be tho ones
benefited
The system of lighting has been en
tirely changed the Westinghouse alter
nating current being now used where
as the old systom wns a direct current
This makes it possible to convey power
a long distance without lost nud where
as several bio cks were tho limit of tho
old system it iB uow possible to produce
as brilliant lights several miles from tho
station as it is in the near neighbor
hood
The material is on hand for extend
ing the system to the Junction The
Heights and other residence portions of
the city impossible to reach by the old
system and the work of extending to
thoso points will be made in a week or
ten days
The curront leaves the power house
now 2200 volts strong and tho trans
formers placed ou poles at intervals
along tho line change it to 110 volts
when it enters tho business houses in n
conditiou thnt is harmless
Rates on a meter system for residence
lighting will be very reasonable and
will be below that of eithor Lincoln
Omaha or Sioux City Many persons
will therefore use tho system for resi
dence lighting

Said contract to go to tho next to
tho lowest bidder Is tho way that a
local building contractor would have
tllC Closlm Bnlnvrppil I naJ vmjLlao
incuts for bids ou any particular Job
While speaking of tho matter recently
thja same conirautivr said that If the
truth were known nlno out of ten of
the lowest bids made arc made through
a mistake iu the calculations of tho
bidder - rgSEEgffgaiffiy
If tho contractor who gets tho Job
was aware that his bid is oftentlmoa
Ttii55 below that of tho oue next above
him nnd this ou a comparatively small
Job he would Immediately Institute a
search and find where he had mado
the mistake thus having an
nity of falling to qualify to complete
tho job This privilege Is often denied
tho bidder however and he gets well
along with his work before tho fact
dawns upon him that he is on a losing
venture It Is then too late to go back
on the job and tho result Is that tho
party who is doing the building and
the contractors also aro losers and this
because of the natural Inclination of
tho contractor to shirk in order not to
lose any more than he Is absolutely
obliged to In order to get out on tho
bad deal
These mistakes are not only disas
trous to the parties Immediately con
cerned but to tho trade in general ns
by the error of tho unlucky bidder an
other worthy contractor is unable to
get tho work at reasonable figures
Give tho work to tho next to the low
