Consumption Caused by Milk.

Question, the writer, says: "Con-

the disease is said not to occur.
mean just what / say, no more,
no less. The primary cause of
consumption is the drinking of cows
milk. | do not mean that every single
case of phthiss is Attributable directly
to the patients having imbibed in
fected cows milk-though even SO
strong statement as that is very
neatly true-but | do mean to say
that If the American people stopped
using cows milk, tuberculous con-
sumption would soon disappear. Let
me put it another way: In countries
where cows milk is not used tubercu-
lous consumption is not known. In
China there is no milk consumed, and
consumption is almost an unknown
quantity. Take the steppes of Asiatic
Russia. Only goats milk and mares
milk is used there. Consequently
there is no consumption. x * The
same condition is. or was until recent
ly, true of the South Sea islanders
no COWS, no tuberculous diseases.
Take the North American Indians be-
fore the white man brought his whisk-
ey and his COWS among them. They
had no word in the Indian language
that corresponded to consumption. A
few cases may be produced by per
sons inhaling the dried sputa, and
some may be inherited, but the great
cause, and the first cause, is the use
of cows milk as food" ..

"The first people to live in the

be called, lies in the Pacific Ocean
Just to the east of their group" writes
John Ritchie, Jr, in the January La

Next Century will Really Begin" "At
that time, although it will be already
Tuesday to them, all the rest of the
world will be enjoying some phase of
Monday, the last day of the nineteenth
century December 81, r9oo1. At
Melbourne the people will be going
to bed, for it will be nearly ten O'Clock;
at Manila it will be two hours earlier
In the evening at Calcutta the Eng
llsh residents will be sitting at their
Monday afternoon dinner, for it will
be about six o'clock and in London,
Big Ben, in the tower of the House
of Commons, will be striking the hour
of noon. In Boston, New York and
Washington half the people will be
eating breakfast on Monday morning,
while Chicago will be barely conscious
of the dawn. At the same moment
San Francisco will be in the deepest
sleep of what is popularly called night,
though really the early, dark hours of
Monday morning. and half the Pacific
will be wrapped in the darkness of the
same morning hours, which become
earlier to the west. until at Midway or
Brooks Island it will be but a few
past midnight of Sunday
night"

in any government act until 1904,
when at the suggestion of the director
of the mint, Ex-Governor Pollock, sin
God We Trust" was stamped on the
copper two cent piece. Before that
time "E Pluribus Unum" had been
the motto. Strange to relate "E

authorized by law. Like Topsy, it
just grew. Nearly all the state con-
