Climate and Consumption.

I am in favor of treating tuberculous
patients near their homes and in the
same or nearly the same climate as that
in which they will have to live and
work after their restoration to health
My reasons for advocating such princi-
pies are founded on the experiences of
all modern therapeutics, who
have demonstrated that the hygienic
and dietetic treatment in special sani-
tariums is feasible and successful in
nearly all climates.
I know from personal observation
that cures of pulmonary tuberculosis
effected in our ordinary home climates,
which are on the average not considered
as especially favorab BILE to this class of
sufferers, have been more lasting and
more assured than cures obtained in
more genial climes.
And, with all due Difference to the
opinions of others, l do not believe
there exists any climate which has a
special curative quality for any form of
pulmonary tuberculosis. Climate can
only be considered as more or less
valuable adjuvant in the treatment of
consumption, but not a specific. IS. a.

One of my neighbors was an interest
ing creature, and evidently well pleased
with himself. He wore long finger nails,
and seeing me look at him spread out
his left hand, evidently for my admira-
ton. On the fourth finger he wore a
large Chinese ring, and all the nails
were long, particularly those of the
fourth and fifth fingers, which had
grown to length of at least an inch.
They looked like huge claws, especially
when he tried to pick up anything from
the seat. The owners of such nails re-
gard them with extreme satisfaction
and cultivate them so carefully that
they sometimes attain a prodigious
length.
They are largely affected by Siamese
and Chinese clerks who fancy them
selves exquisites. They are supposed to
indicate the fact that their owners do no
manual work. Curiously enough, in so
far off place as Mexico, the same idea
exists, but there it is generally confined
to the little finger. do not know what
else he had to be proud about unless it
was his right leg, which was elabora te-
ly tattooed above the knee He was
dressed in only panung, and to cord
around his waist was attached wallet
for his tobacco betel nut, etc. He also
carried some food wrapped in piece of

The latest use for paper, according to
German technical paper, is for the

DESIRES PROMPT AYowAL OF POLICY

What They Arc to ENpcct-All
Information at Hand 10 BE
Given Legislators.

NEW YORK Oct, Pa special to the
Herald from Washington says Prompt
declaration by congress in favor OF assert
ing and maintaining complete sovereignty
ovor the Philippines at whatever cost and in
favor of the most liberal kind OF self govern
mcnt when the insurreCtion ends Is what
the president wants. 1t ia also what the
Philippine commissioners want. There Is
great deal yet for tho president to do on his
message and for the peace commissioners to
do on their report, but this one important
conclusion is certain.
Your correspondent has excellent authority
for the statement that the president intends
to make specific recommendations to con-
gress u favor of holding the Philippines
permanently and as TO the form Of civil gov
ernment to take the place CT the military as
soon as the Tagalos now in rebellion sur
render. 1t is authoritatively stated that
there will be no halfway measures suggested
for the purpose OF sidetracking the Philip
pine question until after the next campaign,
The president will face the issue squareiy
and give congress the best information from
his commissioners and other sources to
support the position he has assumed.
Although members of the Philippine com
mission are not talking for publication, there
is no doubt they will lay great stress in
their report upon the desirabiity OF prompt
and emphatic declaration, on the part of con-
gress, which viii convince those now in re-
belion that all branches OF the government
are united on the question of permanent
| American control in the Philippines Such
action. in tho opinion CT Admiral Dewey and
! Prof. Schurman, will be almost ae effective
as guns in ending the war in the Philippines
! 1t is now only question CT the specific
| kind of government the president will
recommend. He will be governed in his
| decision by the views of the Philippine ccm-
| missioners, whose final decision will be the
| result of the deliberations they are here fol
now. The first meeting Of the commissioners
| will be held in the State department to-
morrow, but they will probably not begir
the actual preparation of their report before
| next Monday.
