The state of Massachusetts does some
| fine things. For instance, it has estap-
lished at Rutland a hospital for con-
sumptive and tubercular patients. Llt-
tie has been said about this hospital
but it has been open for three months
and now has eighty-sx patients, with
capacity in the present buildings for
some two hundred. New patients a'e
constantly applying. Sixty of the pa
tients pay $3.50 a week, and twenty-slX
are unable to pay anything. 1t Is aimed
to make the hospital a sanitarium for
the cure of patients and not a refuge
for those ably affected with con-
sumption, and Massachusetts is the first
State to undertake the work on these
lines. The visiting physicians say 1T
surprise to see how quickly and con-
tentedly the patients have adopted the
special hygienic methods used for
treatment namely, almost constant life
in the open air, whether by walking or
reclining on the pazzas, and the inges-
tion of nourshing food. The remarka-
BILE change in the aspect Of these pa
tients after even a short stay at the
hospital at Rutland would convince the
most casual observer Of the efficacy Of
the treatment upon the general condi-
ton of the patient" They say the moral
effect of the somewhat military discl
pline Is an important factor in accom-
plishing at the hospital what would be
almost impossible at home. The hos
pitaI is situated at an altitude of twelve
hundred feet. with southern exposure
protected from the coolest winter
winds. 1t is the practice to keep the
patients in the open air.. well wrapped
and carefully protected, and to feed
them frequently, and in this regime the
visiting physicians believe the institu-
ton twill be not only benefit to in
dviduaIs, but an object-Iesson to the
whole community, to prove the value
of fresh air and good food for not only
the cure, but the prevention of disease"
1t is figured that on its present basis
this hospital will cost Massachusetts
about $4,000 year. The indications
are that it will be well worth all it |
costs

far into the twenties but for few
months past she has boosted, Of having
received and turned down no less than
seven proposals of marriage, and the
young man learned of the boast,

he would receive the answer seven

invited her to accompany him in an

accepted the invitation, and few hours

man hoped in vain that she would say

programme. Finally he concluded to
give her hint by talking to the
horse.
Get up" he said. IT don't propose
that you shall lag so. You propose to
keep us here, do you?''
This gave the cue and soon she was

boasting of her success. The young

THE CONSTITUTION.

| Ex-senator Edmunds argued impress
World, and Senator Hoar argued i'm
pressively against it in the United
States Senate yesterday. Ex-senator
Edmunds said: ITO force our dominion,
then, upon the people of the Philip
pines would be in opposition to the
everything principles on which our own
nation was founded, and under which
| it has in a little more than a century
grown so great in an ever-increasing
native and homogeneous people, estab-
lished in temperate zone of the earth,
and capable from this cause of contin-
uous development in industry, increase
in knowledge, in social order, justice
and morality" Senator Hoar pointed
out that the Constitution was framed
I'm order to form a more perfect union,
establish justice, insure domestic tran
quillity provide for the common de-
fence, promote the general welfare and
secure the blessings of liberty to our
selves and to our posterty.' And he
added: But when the Senator from
Connecticut undertakes to declare that
we may do such things not for the per-
feet union the common defence, the
general welfare of the people of the
United States, or the securing of lib
erty to ourselves and our children, but
for any fancied or real obligation to
take care Of distant peoples beyond
our boundaries, not people of the United
States, then I deny his proposition and
tell him he can find nothing either in
the text of the Constitution or the ex-
position of the fathers, or the judg-
ments of courts from that day to this,
to warrant or support his doctrine"
Against these two eminent and sturdy
upholders of their idea of the Constitu-
ton is the argument that the general
welfare OF the people of the United
States does include the annexation of
the Philippines, and that Destiny and
Humanity command it. And there you

REM1RKfBLE GERM1yLAU

This will be the last year. for awhile
at least in which there will be fun or
freedom in being habtual drunkard
in Germany. With the beginning Of
1900 there will go into effect truly re-
markable lava law which places
every habitual drunkard under an in
terdict involving complete submission
to the will of a duly appointed "cura-
tor" This person will be empowered
to put the person whom he regards as
a dipsomaniac anywhere he pleases,
there to undergo treatment for the mall
ady as long as the Curator" pleases.
And the new law formulates a broad
definition In telling what a habitual
drunkard is. 1t says that the term in
cludes everybody "who, in consequence
Of inebriety, cannot provide for his af-
fairs, or epdangers the safety of 9TH
ers." This measure was first advocat-
ed In Germany thirty-fve years ago,
but hitherto its enactment has been
prevented. 1t will be interesting to see
how it will work.

number in the northern part of Ameri-

hunters report their presence in places
where they have not been seen for
wears. New Brunswick has for some
time enforced close time for beavers.
