Exclud- ing a not common liability to the air-diffusion of its germs, we acquire this *ailment undoubtedly from water directly, or from milk which has been fouled by polluted water... Pure water means practically the abolition of both typhoid fever and cholera. Our safety abroad is to drink a pure "Mineral Water only."~(Dr. Andrew Wilson in the Illus. London News.")
