THE HOME CIRCLE
n DAFFODILS.
ANDER’D LONELY as a cloud
That floats ou high o'er vales and htlla.
hen all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing In the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way.
They stretch’d in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay;
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
•
The waves beside them danced; but they
Outdid the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but he gay.
In such a Jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or In pensive mood.
They flaah upon that Inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fliis.
And dances with the daffodils.
— William Wordsworth
THE HEALTH OF THE HOUSEHOLD.
The Importance of Household Hygiene—The Trace* Petilntiem
Is That Which Outsiders the Welfare of One's Neighbor*—
How Smallpox Gould Be Stamped Out, and Why Yacrination la
Sometimes Hurtful.
By Mn. F. L. Slmu.
prrcaHILE EXPERT sanitarian* are
erecting sanitaria for con
- sumptives. installing plants
for the purification of water supplies,
employing effective methods for dis
posing of sewage, abolishing the
public drinking cop, campaigning for
c.ean meats and clean milk supplies,
we, the laity, have hygienic responsi
bilities In the home, and we, the
Dome nuuaers ana housekeepers, owe
It to ourselves and the communities
In which we live to practice hygienic
living, to develop and increase our
physical resistance to sickness and
disease which so seriously handicap
our usefulness and our destiny. In
dividual resistance will do much In
the war against disease. The public
health service is an aid In the control
of disease but without the definite
co-operation of the individual home
all laws regulating quarantine re
quirements are valueless.
We glow with pride when loyalty
to State or Nation are public Issues;
we observe the birthdays of our Na
tion, of our National and 8tate he
roes, we wish our children reared In
an atmosphere of patriotism —all of
which are laudable and worthy, but
I wish to call attention to a finer
patriotism which Involves a keener
loyalty, which has as Its basis noth
ing less than the golden rule itself.
Forgetfulness of One's Neighbors.
I have in mind now a mother who
permitted certain members of her
family to attend the public school
when at the time another member of
the family was suffering an attack
of scarlet fever. An interesting fea
ture of the affair was that this moth
er, a woman above the average in
education and Intelligence, felt that
her personal privileges were sorely
Interfered with when she was re
quested by a health official to remove
her children from the school until
the contagion had disappeared from
her home. I have in mind another
parallel case in so far as public dan
ger is concerned. There was a case
I of diphtheria lo an isolated country
home. An interested friend employed
a doctor to administer antitoxin. The
doctor's visit occurred on Saturday
and oq Monday the diphtheria pm
tIont was found in her usual place In
the public school using freely the
common drinking cup, exchanging
books, pencils, possibly food, hating
her part in all the dally routine and
spreading disease broadcast in her
sake. Utile wonder Is It that the
proper period of Incubation being
completed, an epidemic of diphtheria
broke out in that school, Intoltlng
loss of school advantages, loss of efl
clencr in l! o home wirt, .
long list of attending evil*. All this
happened because one mother Incited
the loyalty to friends and neighbors
which must be the basts of our best
civilisation; the other lacked one of
the essentials of success In dealing
with the health problefli—knowl
edge.
What One Mother DM.
However, there are many hopeful
pictures and I am pleased to contem
plate one—a mother of a large fam
ily of children, who was unexpectedly
confronted with a malignant case of
diphtheria In the home, at the time
a member of the famllr wai m. nun*
tng baby of three months. With
promptness this woman though ex
tremely limited in means. Isolated the
Infectious disease, and cared for It
with that splendid Intelligence which
comes only from knowledge, self
control and enthusiasm, with the re
sult that she was aMe to go on with
the care of the bkby and the other
children, no other member of the
family showing the slightest symp
tom of disease.
