The attorney-general has given an opinion sustaining the right and authority of the State Board of Health to make an order to abolish the common drinkingcup upon the railroad trains, in the railway stations and the public and private schools of the state. Accordingly the following resolution passed by the Board has been published in the official state paper, under date of July 20, 1909. Chapter 379 of the Session Laws of 1907 provides that any person or corporation who refuses to obey the rules or regulations when made and published by the State Board of Health shall be subject to a fine of not less than $50 nor more than $500 for each offense. Interested parties should take notice. The regulation follows: WHEREAS, It has been repeatedly demonstrated that the use of what is usually known as the common drinking-cup is dangerous and is an undoubted source of communication of infectious diseases: now, therefore, in the interest of the public health, Be it ruled by the Kansas State Board of Health: That the use of the common drinking-cup on railroad-trains, in railroad stations, in the public and private schools and the state educational institutions of the state of Kansas is hereby prohibited, from and after September 1, 1909. No person or corporation in charge or control of any railroad-train, or station, or public or private school, or state educational institution, shall furnish any drinking-cup for public use, and no such person or corporation shall permit on said railroad-train, or station, or at said public or private school, or state educational institution, the common use of the drinking-cup. TYPHOID FEVer Notes. DETECTION OF TYPHOID CARRIERS. It has been pretty well established that in the so-called "typhoid carriers"the bacilli lurks in myriads in the gall bladder,so that a bacteriological examination of the bile of a suspected case would be the surest way of discovering the typhoid carrier. Weber obtains a specimen of bile by introducing 200 centimeters (about six fluid ounces) of olive oil into the empty stomach, and withdrawing the gastric contents half an hour later. The oil fluid, some of which enters the stomach, sets up a copious secretion of pancreatic carrying with it a certain amount of bile. This bile can be detected by well-known chemical tests, and if the person is a typhoid carrier the typhoid bacilli will always be found in the bile. This is a simple procedure, and if its trustworthiness is confirmed by other investigators the control of the spread of typhoid will be the easier. Typhoid, one of the most loathsome of the many diseases with which human beings are afflicted, is spread in many ways. It is essentially a filth disease. The dairyman who supplies your milk may have an infected well. His cans and bottles are washed with the infected water and this means that the milk will be infected. A person sick with what is Continued on page 39. Programme Thirteenth Annual Convention Denver, Colorado, August 24-27, 1909 Announcement.
