"TIME brings all things"

At Ann Arbor, Mich., one Dr. John Sundwall, Health Officer, warned against handshaking, declared that disease lurks in friendly salutations, that handshakers are purveyors of death, described how secretions of the nose and mouth pass to the hands. Said he: "The average man's hands are contaminated with these secretions. A man who has the infection and whose hands are contaminated meets and shakes hands with a friend. Shortly after, the other's fingers go to his mouth. The route of transmission is completed."

In Atlantic City, met the American Brush Manufacturers' Association, discussed the toothbrush trade. In the U. S., 113,000,000 people purchase only 40,000,000 toothbrushes yearly, whereas at least 330,000,000 should be purchased if U. S. brushers would keep their mollars unyellowed, said the bristle sellers. The life of a toothbrush, they affirmed, is no more than three months. Stated their President, William Cortes: "We hear of many instances where the same toothbrush is used from 10 to 15 years."
