infection may bo opened up in this way. Yet this source of danger may be so easily avoided by the use of paper ttiblenapkins, which should be burnt after each meal. I think the Health Department would do wisely to prohibit the use of any other than paper table-nap-kins in every public place of refreshment, and thus obviate this wide field of pos&ible infection and danger. These paper table-napkins aie, moreover, so cheap that their use would be a boon to restauranti-keepeis, who would thu3 be saved the expense of washing the napkins. "This source of infection is certainly greater than is that, of kissing the Bible in court, or using a common communion cup, both of which customs have been widely abandoned for this reason. Why then not abandon the cloth table-napkin? Its use- involves a considerably greater cost than the price of paper table-napkins, an economy of which those interested would gladly avail themselves did not fashion forbid their more universal adoption, and the old prejudice of "noblesse oblige" supervene to override the dictum of common-sense, and mako the important consideration of health subservient to a. , foolish sentiment."
