About the yelr 1900 the demand for

The report Of the pathOlogIsts of
the Board of Health concerning tho
manner I'm which tuberculosis is trans
mittcd from animals to man and from
ono human being to another deals with
n subject TO which the attention of
sanitarians aud physicians in all parts
OF the civilized world has recently

ologists with respect TO the minute or

malady, consumption, to which are
due one-scycnth OF the recorded deaths

The board pathologists declare that
tuberculosis is a distinctly provcnta-
bio disease that IL is not directly in
hcritod and that il is acquired by tho
direct transmission of the tubcrclc
bacillus or germ from the sick to tho
healthy. Tho occurrence Of several
cases in one family is TO be explained,
they say. not upon the theory that
children inherit the disease from their
parents, but by the fact that the dis
ease is transmitted from those who
have il TO those who are constantly
associated with them by means OF
these fnhnito,imal germs that may be
taken i'm the lungs with the air. IL
has boon held by some that while
majority OF eases are caused by a d.
rect transmission OF tho microbes, en-
tcring the system with food or air,
others arc really inherited. The
boards patho,ogists do not seem TO adj
init that in any instance the malady is
inherited. and this conclusion is I'm ac-
cordancc with the recent tendency OF
research in this fold. The introduce
tiou ot the disease depends largely,
however, upon the physical condition
OF those who are exposed TO injection.

farmers growled, scythe manufacture
crs protested, and at length there was
grand, determined kick made before
the General Assembly at It's June scs-
sion In Providence IN June, 1926. The
kick resulted in the passage Of an act
creating the Office Of Scythc-stOne In
spcctOr, and regulating the inspection
Of all scythc stones made at Smith

Heavy fines were provided for those
who insisted upon cheating In scythe
stones and for those who even at

The Inspector was 20 be- paid by fees
The event nearly approached an epoch
ia the smallest State in tho Union.
John j. Paine, OF SmithleId, was ap-
pointed Inspector
From the outset the Inspector found
the duties Of bis place bc5ct with diff
cuitics. The Whct-tOne men were
down upon the idea Of having such an
officer put over thcm, and they fought
10 with persistence. SO when Mr..
Paine was called 10 inspect "a fcw of
Jonathan Sfincn'a product the iuspcc-
tion raised lively kind Of muss.
This was 30 1881. H. ua5 the first time
the Inspector had attempted 30 in
epcc' and the manufacturers had bccn
running tho business with "a high
hand. They wore making money. All
that they asked was 10 bs let alone
Mr.. Paine insisted upon inspecting.
and finally matters became so
lively that tho Assembly was
invoked That august body

mands and removed Mr.. Paine, app

appointed 90 this successor as tmc ran

popular one, and incumbent usually
stayed away rcligiousiy from the whct-
stone mon, wrestling with the problem
only in private. Ia the meantime
SmithGcld's banner industry went on,
and tons ol srythe stones OF all sorts
of illegal lengths and styles were
thrown upon tho market
Some Of the latest inspectors wero
