We do not now have widespread epidemics of smallpox because many of us have been vaccinated. Every case oi smallpox cornea from it previous case. Those who are viicclnatcd break the chain of transmission. Not only are they protected again the disease but. as they cannot contract. smallpox. Lhcy cannot pass it on to someone else. The irnvacclnrited shelter themselves behind those who are vaccinated.

The protection or immunity ac- quired through vaccinatlon is rela- tive in its extent and duration. The protection is lost gradunlly, some individuals losing it. more quickly than others. Those who, have been vaccinated once rarely die from smallpox as cvcn fifty years or more after vaccination. some degree of immunity likely remains.

In the time of Jcnncr. there were mllcl epidemics of smallpox: the mild form seen today is nothing new. That fatal smallpox still lurks around the corner was shown. in me. at Windsor. Ontario. One girl. vaccinated six years previously. escaped while twenty-one 01 her mvaooixiaied relatives died. Van- eeuver. in 1932. had seventeen deaths; of those who died. only one had been vaccinated and that was thirty-six years before.

Vaccination is one oi the safest procedures known to medical science. The best time to be vac- cinated is between the sixth and the twelth month of life. There is less eiscemioio at this age and M1 dance at smallpox. in early "19. *5 avoided. vaccination should D!‘ N“ peaied after the tenth year of life and agsin..letar omit there Is an!’

clothing is to be found in the loot that there isn't the same tendency to store it in drawers for a long time where it is exposed to the danger of moths. During what is called the Victorian agc. when

clothing had often to last a life-

time. the ravages of this little pest

were immense. Clothes nnths love

the dark. In spring they do omcrgci for a very brief period and tilt

deposit their eggs arid than die.[ From the eggs tiny caterpillars or‘ maggots are born and it is these maggots and not the moths which do the damage.

There are hundreds of species of moth which may be cla.s;ed as. clothes moths although they are not dainty in their food. Most of them can live equally well on cloth. on iurs. on feathers. and on the many things that are so likely to be kept in storage in dark places. Some of them are found on mils and carpets, irom which the “vacu- um" cannot dislodge them; in fact, it may be laid in passing that the annual beating and sunnlngs on the back green which old-feshien- ed folks yet give to the household clrptts is a much better way of getting rid of moths than any other. '

some of the clothes moths are extremely small and most of them are so small that when flying about a room they appear to be more Llickers in the ether rather than living creatures. The maggots which bread from their eggs are probably smaller still. hence it is almost hopeless trying to pick them out. They eat -uraciously; they do not seem to require moisture in the ordinary sense and in some cases they clothe themselves in woven tubes or the material in hand.
