“To the trained sanitarian a heap ol decayed cababges, disagreeable though it liia.V he, is of far less importance than the person who carries typhoid germs in his body, though he be void of offensiveness,” said Dr Male gill at the Sanitary Inspectors’ Conference a Wanganui. “But the public, "bile admitting the carrier into their homes or their dairies, will demand the cessation of the nuisance, caused by the cnTibngos. It offends senses; the carrier does not. We have to bow to this old belief in decomposition ns a source of disease and have to he energetic in our efforts for removing the popular scape-goat —but the real sanitary progress consists in quietly jrlncing the carrier where he will do no harm.”
