One ultimate result of this was that
in 1880 Koch was called from his coun-
try practice to be the assistant of Pro-
fessor Finklebury at the aristocratic
University of Bonn. This is not the
place to describe all his microscopicaI
discoveries, but in 1882 came his next
great triumph in locating the tubercIe
bacillus This meant a revolution in
our ideas of phthisis. Up till then it
had been thought that consumption or
the lungs was due to a degeneration of
tissue. 1t was regarded as being al
most as hopeless for a consumptive to
recover as for a MANNED man to re-
cover a lost limb. The consumptive waS
almost forbidden to marry Koch
swept away all this. He showed that
consumption is not due to degeneration
of tissue. but to attacks of an infective
germ. From this the whole modern
system of treating consumption has
grown up But much more has been
done than this It has been found that
consumption of the lungs is only one
side of a disease which takes many
forms and which attacks different or
ganS IN different ways. The hitherto
unsupported relationship between lupus
and consumption was proved.
In the following year the cholera
came to Europe. Koch was now placed
at the head of a commission by the
government to investigate it First he
went to the infected regions Of eastern
Europe, and then he went on to those
parts of India where cholera is cpl
demic. Month by month he closely
studied it. In other words he daily
ran the risk of the most horrible death.
In tracking disease this quiet German
has shown a heroism and fearlessness
greater by far than that of the soldier
on the battlefield. For the prospect
ever before him in his researches has
been. not swift death by a chance bull

A SOLDIER OF SCIENCE.
Gallant Services Rendered by DR..
Robert Koch.
Gondon Daily Mail.)

OondOn Daily Mail)
DR.. Robert Koch is not only the most
famous living bacteriologist, but was
also the center of one of the worlds
greatest tragedies
Nearly IL years ago, in the latter half
OF November. 1890, the word went round
the world like a lightning flash that a
Berlin scientist had discovered an in
fallible cure for consumption. Up to
then DIR. Koch had been comparatively
unknown outside scientific circles, but
in a few days he became world IA
nous. From every corner OF the earth
consumptives rushed TO MIN. Hectic
checked, big-eyed, emaciated. they
poured into Berlin. Men at the last
stages of the disease died in railway
carriages on their way TO him. Stricken
souls, barely able to walk yard, had
themselves carried, and Berlin became,
for a time. a veritable pool of Sloan
1t was pitifuI and terrible, and there
was no man who would more gladly
have stayed the rush than DR.. Koch
himself. He had not desired this. He
had sought his utmost to keep his dis
coveries from the public, and il was
only to save misunderstanding that he
had issued a bare account of them
In the Deutsche Medizinische Woch
enschrift that memorable November
he had written
1T was my intention to complete the
research and to experiment especially
upon the application of the remedy in
practice and it's production upon a
large scale, before publishing anything
on the subject. But, in spite of all pre-
cautions, too many accounts have
reached the public and those in an ex-
aggerated and distorted form, so that
it seems imperative, in order to pre-
vent all false impressions, to give at
once a review of the position Of the
subject at the present stage Of the in
quiry."
And it was this which precipitated
the tragedy. The experiments had not
been completed. and it was found that
the Koch tuberculin, which had been
expected to Danish the disease as effec-
tually as calf lymph has destroyed
smallpox, was as yet imperfect. And
the pilgrims for health had to go back
uncured.

unCured.
Every triumph is only made through
failures and no man who understands
the conditions of modern medical re-
search would blame Dr. Koch for the
Berlin tragedy of 1890. He had done
his best, and if ne had not done all that
man hoped, yet he showed the way to
great triumphs.
Forty years ago it was the fashion in
England to laugh at the bespectacled,
short-sighted, plodding German SCENT
lists Today we have learned to take
off our hats to them. For the quiet in
vestigator in his laboratory is the con-
queror of the world DR.. Koch is now
in his 5Sth year. and made his
famous announcement when he was
only AZ, but he had done much in bac-
teriology before then. The son of a
mining official. he was trained at Cat
tingen, where he came under the inf1u-
ence of Jacob Henle. who gave him his
bent toward microscopic investigation
Then he went on TO Hamburg as assist
ant physician at the hospital and in
time settled down in a, quiet German
village. There could have seemed no
more hopeless place for scientific prog
ress. The people were rough rustics.
and the doctor was so far away from
intellectual centers. But it was here
he won his spurs.
Living in the country. he grasped the
opportunity of mastering the most ter
rible rural disease, anthrax in cattle
Anthrax is supposed to have been one
of the ten plaques of Egypt, and has
been in modern times one of the great
est curses of farmers Some years pre-
vious to this DR.. Davaine had partly
located the bacillus of anthrax. Koch
took up the matter where Davaine left

germ, and was able even to cultivate

and how the farmers of today are ben

savings that he has won especial dis
tinction. Not long before he sailed
for Europe he was guest at a public
dinner. On his left sat young man
who had contracted the habit OF pro-
family, and the habit was SO strong
that It had got beyond his contr H.
The young man had particular weak
ness for the expression, "Oh, the dew
H." He used it thoughtless!y and
without intention to give oTense, but
It seemed to serve as a sort OF pune
tuation for every sentence he uttered
Finally friend Of the young man
thought it necessary to give him a
hint. and said to him: You'd better
be a little careful of your expressions.
You're sitting next to the Rev. DR..
Leighton Parks" THE devil" said
the young man in surprise. And then,
recovering his presence Of mind, he
turned to the clergyman and made a
very polite apology. "Oh, you needn't
apologize to me-" said the doctor. "The
devil is no friend Of mine"

HOW TO KILL MOSQUITOES.
Chinatown Sells a Cheap and Most Ef-
fective Obliterator.

Chinatown Sells a Cheap and Most Ef-
fective Obliterator.
1t is the experience OF the average
housekeeper in Philadelphia that no
matter how thoroughly the doors and
windows of a mouse are screened, mos
quitoes will get inside. Many OF them
do not understand that small pool Of
stagnant water in a cellar or water
standing in pitcher plants is birth
place for thousands of mosquitoes. In
flower vases on the table, where the
water Is not frequently changed, mos
quito eggs are found in great numbers.
Applications Of kerosene oil will stop
that. The general question is how to
get the small insect pests out OF the
house when once they are in. To per-
sons of careful habits chlorine gas is
recommended. Pour into a plate con-
tanning four teaspoonsfuls of chloride
Of lime about ten drops of crude sui
phuric acid. This liberates the chlorine
gas, which Is said to kill the mos
quitoes. The plan can be used only in
rooms not temporarily occupied or in
which the gas vapors can be allowed
to remain for several hours. The burn
ing of pyrethrum powders in a room
will also kill them. The powder should
be moistened and then made into lit
tie cones, which are dried in the oven.
When a cone is lighted at the top 1t
shoulders slowly, emf.dng an odor
which many persons find pleasant. But
good, simple and cheap mosquito
killer may be bought in Chinatown.
The Chinese use pine or juniper saw
dust, mixed with small quantity Of
birthstone and an ounce of arsenic
This mixture is put into little bags in a
dr. state. Each bag is coiled like a
snake and tied tightly with thread
The outer end is lighted. The coils sell
at 10 cents hundred and two of them
are said to be enough to clear any or
binary room of mosquitoes.

A remarkable Voyage.

The arrival at Manila of the squad
ron comprising the gunboat Annapolis
and the ocean tugs Frolic, Piscataqua,
and Wampatuck, which sailed from
Hampton roads early last winter, COM
pletes a remarkable voyage. This Is
the longest trip ever accomplished by
such tiny naval craft and was prob
ably never equaled by similar war
ships. The distance covered was near
ly two-thirds around the world, cross
ing one ocean, skirting the southern
part of Europe, thence through the
tornado seas of the Indian ocean, down
to the Philippines at season when
typhoons are usual. There have been
trips of small ships across the Atlantic
and once an old monitor was sent
around to San Francisco by the Horn.
but no vessels of such light displace-
ment have yet covered so much dam
gerous water area as the little squad
ron Of American boats.

Drastic Anti. Gambling Laws.

Some little time ago the Belgian
chamber Of deputies passed some
what drastic anti-gambling law. The
bill has reached the upper house, and
is being discussed in a somewhat
acrimonious tone, and meeting consid-
cradle opposition. Some of the SEN
a,ors point out that gambling Is in
herent to human nature, and that If
the law we're carried into effect 1t
would tend to foster clandestine
gamblinghouses on an extensive scale.
This argument has been put forward
before, but where the shoe really
pinches seems to lie in the fact that
the fashionable watering place Of Os-
tend would be the principal sufferer
The casino there ranks with the fam
GUS gambling hell at Monte Carlo, and
many of the senators are said to be
financially interested, and hence their
opposition. 1t is claimed that If the
casino were abolished the loss to the
town would lie between $4,000 and
SIS, 600, 900, and that most of the public
works now in progress would have to
be abandoned as they were undertaken
on the strength of the revenues de-
rived from the gaming tables.

Felt Her Case Was Hope
lcSS-Cured by
Pc-ru-na.

Mrs. Judge McAllister writes from
1917 West S3rd ST.. Minneapolis, Mimi,
as follows:
II suffered for years with a pain in
the small of my back and right side.
1t interfered often with my domestic
and social duties and 1 never supposed
that would be cured, as the Doctors
medicine did not seem to help me any
Fortunately member of our Order
advised me to try Peruna and gave 1t
such high praise that l decided to try
it. Although | started in with little
faith, felt so much better In week
that | felt encouraged
II took 1t faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that l am entirely cured. Words fail
to express my gratitude. Perfect health
once more is the best thing I could
wish for, and thanks to Peruna enjoy
that now."-Minnie e. McAllister.
The great popularity of Peruna as a
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people to initiate Peruna. A great
many so-called catarrh remedies and
catarrhal tonics are to be found In
many drug stores. These remedies can
be procured by the druggist much
cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can only
be obtained at a uniform price, and no
druggist can get it cent cheaper.
Thus 1t is that druggists are tempted
to substitute the cheap limitations OF
Peruna for Peruna. 1t is done every
day without doubt.
We would therefore caution all peo-

THE FL. HERMAN AND THE LIE.


From the King: There was once
fisherman. And Of course he went
a-fishing, for no one expects a fish
erman to go out shooting rabbits. And
he caught two little fish, and they
we're so small that he threw them back
again. And he went home without
any, and did not stop at the fish
monger's to buy large ones. And his
wife said to him: Where are the
large fish," and he said: There are
none" And she said: and where
is the lie about the twelve-pound
trout?' And he said II have not
pne." Then his wife said: Il do not
believe you have been fishing at all,
but have been to the races and lost
a lot of money and are afraid to tell
me. | think 1t Is cruel, and l shall
20 home to mother" And she wept
for a long time. and was only per-
suaded by a diamond ring that he
was telling the truth.
Moral-A fishy lie is cheaper than
the necessary truth.

WESTERN WATER FARMING.

OF Great Profit.

Wlsconsin's Many Lakes Give Promise
of Great Profit.
Scientists who make it their business
TO look ahead into the far future are
now busy telling what will happen
after all the land in the United States
has been put under cultivation. When
there are no more quarter sections up
on which the settler can establish HIM
self, it is predicted that water farm
ing will become general occupation.
This information is comforting to resi-
dents of Wisconsin. No state in the
Union has better facilities for water
farming than the one famous for the
number and beauty of it's lakes When
the time comes for men to fence of
acre plots on the crystal waters Of the
inland seas Wisconsin will have a
boom worth while waiting for with pa
thence. OF course there will be draw
backs to water farming, but the in
dustry offers great possibilities. AL
though it will be difficult to keep ones
crop of fish from being mixed with
ones neighbors', there will be no plow-
ing or narrowing, no wrestling with
stumps, and no trouble over irrigation.
After the fish are planted each season
there will be nothing to do but to wait
until harvest time. By little diplo-
matte advertising water farmers may
persuade city men to spend their va
cations on the lakes as assistants dur
ing this harvest season. Households
on the water farms would be ideal
places of residence during the hot
months. 1t is estimated that the fish,
cries of the United States produce food
of the value of $45,0OO,00O every year.
AS soon as the water farming industry
has a good start, Wisconsin will be
able to add millions to this amount.

thing worse to prophesy about than the
