French Town Which Has Como Into q
Heritage of Consumption.
1t has long been a cause of con-
troversy among physicians as to wheth-
cr consumption is contagious or not,
and one of the strongest arguments,
says the New York Journal, that it is
that has yet been produced is the story
OF the fate of the villagers of Mentone.
Forty years ago this place was one of
the healthiest villages in France, whose
inhabitants We're of superb physical de-
vclopment. 1t was discovered about
this time that the climate of Mentone
was remarkably beneficial in cases Of
lung diseases, and people afflicted in
this way flocked thithcr from all parts
of Europe. The natural result was
that the people who had hitherto been
engaged in farming one and all betook
themselves to ministering in various
ways to the throngs of invalids. The
strong and healthy women of Mentone
became laundresses and washed, with
out taking the least precautions, the
consumptives' clothes. The place is
now described as being bacillus pest
hole" The very soil and air are said to
be contaminated.

Ing against o velvet-covered block Of

extends her hands in front of her and
cries ready" A catch is pulled, the,
string of the bow sings as it cuts thss
air, and little Alar is hurled, as rif

fully aimed, and sails through the
in graceful curve to the other !.
OF the big tent, where, just s,s sheS
gins to descend, she is caught by an
other woman, who swings head down
ward, hanging from a trapeze, which
oscillates in such manner that, just
ut the right moment, it brings the
dangling woman within reach Of JtI

are wondering whether the little one
