Willis L. Moore, chief Of the weather
service bureau, has issued a general or
der forbidding persons connected with
the service from smoking cigarettes
during office hours. That Chief Moore
Is not opposed to the use of tobacco by
the men under his control Is evidenced
by his permission granted them to
smoke pipes or cigars while on duty.
1t is stated that the order was care
fully considered before 1t was issued,
and was the result of extended inyesti-
CATION. Speaking Of this matter, Chief
service we are compelled to maintain a
very strict discipline, in order to secure
a satisfactory service. Some of our

thorough and competent, doing every
detail of their work with the utmost
promptness and accuracy, gradually
become careless and lax. sent inspec-
tors to investigate, and in a number Of
cases 1t was found directly attributable
to the use of cigarettes. l am not
prudish, nor do l wish to assume any
authority whatever over any privilege
which the employees of the service
should have, but as a public servant |
feel that it is my duty to correct any
evil which may exist, even if in at

Overstepping my authority. can state
most emphatically that the order will
stand, and that it applies to the entire
force of the bureau throughout the en-
tire service. Cigars and pipes are not
barred" This order will doubtless Gre
ate great deal of discussion, and
those addicted to the use of cigarettes
will look upon it as an infringement of
personal liberty. But the order Is sim
ply In line with a rule generally en-
forced on railroads prohibiting en-
ployes when on duty from drinking
spirituous liquors. If cigarette smoking
results In q neglect of duty there can be-
no question as to Chief Moore's right
to issue the order In question, and

Apparently the New Hampshire Com
missioner of Labor is the first to recog-
nize the taking of summer boarders as
an industry with a body of statistics
all its own. He finds this to be the
chief source of revenue for the inhabit-
ants of 204 out of the 235 towns in New
Hampshire, representing an invested
capital of $40, Az, 352-a figure that is
also increasing at the rate Of nearly
$1,OOO,0O0 a year. He reports that his
State entertains 174,2S0 summer board
ers each year, and does it so badly that
only one-third of them stay longer than
a week. Yet perhaps it is not the bad
ness but the cost of the entertainment
that drives away the boarders so soon,
for they annually leave with their en-
tertainers $4,947,935, besides parting
with $725,0 each summer in the form
Of railroad and steamship boat fares.
This may seem like reducing the beau
ties of White Mountain scenery to dol
lars and cents, but the multitudinous
summer boarder Is not to be pitied. He
gets his moneys worth In fresh air and
new inspiration for the dull routine
Of city life.

A medical journal calls attention to
the general neglect of sanitary and
hygienic methods in the management
of sleeping-cars. There are stringent
regulations about the transportation of
dead bodies in baggage-cars, but there
Is no adequate and systematic provi-
sion for protecting living travellers
from exposure to infection, although
many passengers must leave disease
producing germs in the bedding or up
holstery. 1t Is customary to cleanse
the blankets and cushions of dry dust
and cinders by subjecting them to pow
erful currents Of air, driven by steam,
but 1t Is said that they are seldom so
thoroughly treated as to remove the
danger of infection. Unless railroad
authorities take prompt measures, it
seems to be the duty of State boards Of
health to interfere for the safety Of the
travelling public. This is only one case
among many in which new occasions
teach new duties" Almost every in
vention or advance in modern life Gre
ates situations which require the fresh
application of old, eternal principles.
1t requires the strong pressure of law
or of public opinion to secure the adop-
ton Of new and needed methods, even
when health, comfort and life are at
risk. Only the Undetermined can keep
up with the inecssant demands for re
adjustment.

presents some figures which must ap-
peal even to the greediest Of capital
lists. Buildings erected on sanitary
principles, with plenty of light and air,
water, heating facilities and other con-
veniences, are paying dividends of
from II to 10 per cent, while the
squalid and unhealthy dwellings beside
them can hardly be forced to yield 5
and per cent. In one tenement house
the average rent of rooms is 50 cents n
week, and the room has at least one
window with clear sunlight. For every
tenant there Is running water and
steam heat, together with free baths
and laundry privileges in the base
ment This building has never paid
less than 10 per cent, while the dilap-
idated and uncomfortable houses
which adjoin it pay only 7 per cent.
Here is something for the landlords tc
think about.

Stamps spread Consumption

1t is stated by responsible medical
Journal that a surgeon in the French
army has just discovered that stamp
collectors may be the means of dissem-
mating tuberculosis by means of the
stamps. A man In his employ was a
great stamp collector and occupied his
spare time in fixing the stamps in al
buns or on sheets of gummed paper
for sale, molstening the stamps for the
purpose with his tongue.
Three hundred Of the stamps were
placed In sterilized water, and with
some of the water eight guinea pigs
were lnoculated. Each died with char
acteristic tuberculosis LESSONS. Chill

against placing any stamps near their

There are many good old stories that
are worth reviving. Here Is one about
Henry VIII, who took to the crown
all the property of the church, and
who, during his reign, had many jokes
Mt the expense of the abbots and tho
clergy. On one occasion he had been
hunting in Epplng forest and had
come to Waltham Abbey alone, dis
guised as one Of his own guard. Dinner
was just ready, and he was Invited to-
the abbot's table. His appetite was so
good that the abbot at last exclaimed,
unaware whom he was addressing, Il
would willingly give hundred pounds
on condition | could feed as heartily ON
beef as thou dost!' A few days later
the abbot was mysteriously sent for,
taken to London, and committed to the
Tower, where for some time he was
fed on bread and water, wondering the
while what crime he had committed.
One day, however, sirloin of beef was
set before him. and his hearty attack
thereon showed that the strict regimen
Of his captivity had worked wonders
Upon this the merry monarch himself
suddenly entered and demanded
hundred pounds, the reward the abbot
had SO rashly promised for the restora-
ton of his appetite. The money was
In due course paid, and the prisoner
went home to Waltham rejoicing.
