conclusively rovcaled tho indefen

that it was tho lnfluonco ot friend

tho order to McNab to defer prose

Medical Fallacies.
CASPER, Wyo., June 24. -To the Edi
tor 0t Tho Bee: I have Just read your
brief article under the caption "Possibili
ties, of, Typhoid Numerous on .Vacation
Trips," and the alleged recommendation
Oft Dr. R. W. Connell, and though late,
I ask spaed to call' attention to the fal
lacy of this.
(Somb years ago I studied medicine until
I found out the urisclentlflo nature or
Its theories and' consequent methods ot
healing. ' I then promptly gaVe It up.
Dr. Connell , Is represented as urging
upon Omaha pleasure seekers to ask for
"ImmtlhW'lng doses of typhoid bacterln"
before setting out for their vacation.
Atsumlng this recommendation to bo cor
rect, I. do not hesitate' to declare It a
deltislqn, and Indirectly a decided menace
tJ the public health.
Serums and vaccine therapy belong to
the superstition of r the dork ages, simply
modernized by a mpro refined. technique.
The theory of tho serum treatment Is
that there ore certain .organisms lq the
body which have the power ot, rendering
It Immune from disease germs, but that
sometimes those protective .organisms
are weak and unable to overcome tho
pathologic or disease Kcrrns, th,e .serums
are then supposed ,to aid tho feeble pro.-,
tecttve. organisms .by, uniting, (htlr forces,
so throwing off the .threatened, Invasion,
This theory ma3f bft true Jq. tho labora-i
tory amongst guinea , pigs and. , tortured,
dogs, put ha,vo never seen jjrqvod to be,
a particle of value as a protective In the
living human body,, ,
Tho, typhoid serum fad was. tried upon
a few dozen Individuals, and. forsooth, ber
cause they did not contract typhoid after
drinking a llttlo dirty water, the medi
cals at once cried "Eureka." .Everybody
With a ray of Intelligence knows, that
fruch, artificial experimenting ptovee noth
ing.
Conditions are similar In connection
so, we aro assured of a "sure cure" for
that condlUon. At-present there are some
thirty sure cures, such' as creasote, mer
cury, iodln, the bromides, etc., ad Infln.
Dr. Frledmann had the very last "euro"
and succeeded In deluding hundreds ot
Door creatures with his turtle soup. Tu
berculosis Is, a rare disease; but, medicals
brand ' all forms of lung disease os tu
berculosis. They, nro pot.. Death, however,-Is
hastened by stupid, treatment, es
pecially the "death formula," "eat all the
gcod .nourishing food you can .get,"
whether. It can,. be digested or. not, .
' It Is to be .hoped that tho Omaha vaca
tionists will display their intelligence- by
avoiding polluting their bodies with filthy
terurhs, and at tbo same time save
their money. If Dr. Connell had
really desired the health of the peo
ple, ho would have cautioned against
tho drinking of well or cistern water
except as " to tea or - coffee, but to
drink milk, and especially avoid consti
pation, living- largely on Juicy fruits. But
then, there would be no fees In that ad
vice. Should 'you take the "immunizing
(7) dose" you will lose your money and
very likely get typhoid all the same, as
you will be under tlie false impression
tha't you will' bo really secure frpm con
tracting the disease, and so be careless
as to tho water you drink. Should you
get tho disease after you aro "Immu
nised."., the medicals will at once bavp
a reason ready '.'cut aqd dried," napiply,
you did not take a sufficiently large
"shot." F. JOHNSON.

OMAHA, June 2?. To tho Editor, of
The Bee;. I am pleased,.. at your stand on
tho loWer water problem..
You do not go as far as I see you think
you should go, , .
I think your .idea ot lower rates for the
little fellow Is good,
What would you think ot changing tho
entire rating and give the little fellow tho
lowest rata , and let the well-to-do and
rich pay. the high and, highest rate.. .The
basjs the water Is now figured on. woa the
make-up of ft private company. The city
should inaugurate a new scale based
upon the greatest good for the poorest
people who are In greatest number, com
mensurate with good business.
I also desire to call your attention to
the paid claim of Jackson & McKenzio
of about $i0,0dQ. -There aro a score or more
ot small storekeepers, teamsters and
artisans who are Buttering for lack of
this money. They have been after it in
season and out of season, but were told
tho the war lord they could not get it
until two leaks were fixed, then they
would be settled Instanter. These were
fixed. Then the roads must be polished
off. This was . done. Then his high
mightiness said his duties were so numer
ous he .would turn it over to the board's
attorney, John L. Webster, and he has
riot time to attend to It after eight
months.
For common shirks, the .present board
beats them all. They talk big, but cannot
afford tlmo to settle an account., the non
payment of which hurts a great many
people. Why can not these people be set
tled with? They are not -rich contractors
