woman who had just got of the steam

she declined to move.
Their, was short consultation
among the officials and one OF them
finally advanced toward her

at would be a great favor if you
would move a little" he said, rather
diffidently.
''Why should II" she demanded. 1T
1t decidedly presumptuous in you TO
speak to me nj all. I've been waiting
here fifteen minutes for my baggage,
and during that time you haven't done
a thing but stand there and look at me
and talk to the other inspectors"
'The fact is" explained the man IN
the same diffident way, as if something
worried him, that you are in the
way"
'Of what?" she asked. at seems to
me that you are the most impudent set
of officials that l ever knew. The idea
of asking me to move as mere matter
Of convenience to you. There's plenty
Of room to inspect the baggage without
annoying me, and you ought 10 be at
work at it now"
But We can't" protested the man.
'You see we don't open the trunks any
more. We just put them under the n
rays and inspect them that way"
"Well, why don't you do it?' she de-
manded, irritably.
Because, madam-because--"
The inspector fidgeted about ner-
vously.
Because" he continued at last,
you're standing right in the rays now,
where we want to put the trunks"
There was a scream and the place
was vacant.

She delights to see the soldiers and

ed with silver water service by the
G. A. r. of Kansas in commemoration
Of her labOrs for the old soldiers of

Mrs. Bickerdyke was Mary Ann Ball.
and she was born at Mount Vernon.
Ohio, in 1917. She came from the old
pilgrim stock, intermingled with the
knickerbockers. Her ancestors came
from England almost a century before
the great revolution, and 1t is from the
Virginia Balls that Mrs Bickerdyke is
descended.
After a course at Oberlin College.
Miss Ball studied the methods Of the
nursing of that day in the hospitals of
Cincinnati. After her marriage she
removed to Galesburg, ILL.,, and the
death Of her husband left her to sup
port two children. At the beginning
of the civil war she offered her services
to the sanitary commission at Chicago
and, being accepted, was assigned to
Cairo, Ill. She served all through the
war. and her fame as a nurse spread
throughout the armies of the North
and the South. Many a brave soldier
owes his life to her, and she is honored
by the soldiers as is no other woman.

Bickerdyke has lent her valuable aid to
many charitable missions in the East

very little weight in the country at large.
Americans pay the price for the best gov

seems difficult To comprehend that an ex-
pensive government is expensive to each
person living under it. The actual cost OF
the federal service and the actual num-
Der OF the persons employed have been
ascertained by the civil service commission
for the first time. It's exhibit is now being
printed by Congress, and gives basis for
interesting deductions One hundred
millions year go for salaries alone, and
four hundred millions more are required
for other expenses. If to the burden Of
federal taxation is added the burden OF
State. county and municipal taxation, the
citizen should see that the cost comes
out OF his pocket, Just as money for his
own or his children's Shoes
1t ought MOTTO be necessary to resort to- fig
ures to prove that the merit system is eco
nomical Undoubtedly, as is claimed, the
new system has saved several millions of
dollars in salaries in the departments in this
city alone: but it is short-sighted view
which looks upon this as any but the least
gain The greatest gain has been in ridding
our politics OF the degrading methods that
have infested them, and in restoring to the
people the political rights of which they
have long been robbed Compared with this
end, the commercial aspect is insignificant.
The ills to be remedied are stated in re-
port OF a majority of the Committee on

Every principle upon which they founded

The only barrier to partisan greed and

the President and the heads of depart

How the Disease Fastens Itself on

tFrom the Popular Science Monthly
The germs OF consumption cannot OBJ
tain a foothold until the resistive powers
or the tissues have been reduced. There
must he not only the seed, but the soil.
This impaired power OF resistance may
be the result OF heredity, and this influ-
ence in the CausatiOn OF disease is sell
dom shown to better advantage than in
the history OF consumption. There have
been instances in which single case
introduced into a long and sound ances-
try has viriated the stock forever. How
unfortunate that such matters are so lit
tie considered in marrying and giving in
marriage, 1t is not trat the disease is
inherited, but the vulnerable tissues, the
feeble resiStive powers, render the off
spring an easy prey to the ubiquitous ba-
cllus This weakness often shows itself
by a tendency TO become III from slight
causes, a sickness, not by any m cans to be
confouuded with merely a lack of robust
ness or strength, One organ or part
of the body, frequently the mucous mem
brane, is usually more prone to become
affected, and tie beginning of the disease
can often be traced to an attack of some
slight aiIment. Not only the children
OF consumptive parents may show these
characteristics, but also those OF parents
generally enreebled, or whose ages are
widely separated, or who are closely re-
lated by blood, or OF mother who has
borne a number in quick succession. Even
when heredity is found, the same condition
is sometimes induced by coddling, by i'm
proper feeding, by attacks OF acute disease,
or by want and distress. In growing
children, a bad carriage of body may
act iniuriously by contracting and deform-
