Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Care and Preservation of Food in the Home
People who are apparently healthy are often carriers of disease germs. In one of our Eastern towns typhoid fever appeared in two different parts of the town. The water was examined and every effort made to locate the cause. The only thing these families had had in common was a cook. On ex amination, the excretions of her body were found to be full of typhoid fever germs. This case of Typhoid Mary, as she is known to the medical world, should serve as a warning. Ev ery person who handles food should take care that the clothing, body, and personal habits are clean.
