DR.. George T. Brown.

Gov. Gambler, of Georgia, has ap
pointed twelve leading physicians to
represent that State ut the approach
ing session in New York Of the Ameri-
can Congress of tuberculosis, and
named DR.. George T. Brown, an old
Anderson County boy, as chairman IF
tho delegation. This Congress has
been organized for the purpose Of dis
cussing the cause and cure Of that
terrible disease, consumption, which,
many prominent physicians now be-
Ii W, is both . preventable and in q
great many instances curable disease.
To be chairman of the delegation
named by the Governor is certainly
IN honor worthily bestowed on our
good friend, the Doctor, 10 whom we
extend our congratulations.

Recently DR.. Kalcy Hustled Bell,

Journal, of New York, published the
following sketch Of DR.. Brown in his
paper, which we know will be read

"HURRYCIDE" KILLS.
How Trusts Affect Individual Lives in
New York,

-NtW
The conditions OF life in the bushes
world are more precarious and more
hopeless today than at any time in the
past three decades. This Is the state
ment of John p. Mowbray in THE
Making of Country Home" in Every
body's Magazine. The conditions of
personal merit and fidelity to an en-
ployer have enlarged in our time. So
long as our employers were individuals
who trained and appreciated special fit
ness in their employees, and kept their
eyes on fidelity, smartness and honesty
we felt safe. 1t was to their interest
TO advance us. But all that is chang
ing, passing into corporate irresponsi-
bility and abstract bossship. Look at
our friend Warner. He was with a
big firm ten years. He knew every
pulse OF their business and managed
his department like clockwork. He
was a twenty-four-hundr ,
man. But the firm joined trust, gave
over the personal supervision OF their
business to the new brand of overseers
and the first thing they did was TO sh D
Warner and put fifteen.hundred-do
lar-a-year man in his place. Do you
know what happened to Warner?
why, he was your friend who was
killed. wasn't hep He committed
what the reckless fellows in the Astor
House rotunda call 'hurrycide' War
ner tried to jump for an electric car,
and those fellows have CHASTITY humor
which attributes such an act to a man
who was overdrawn his accounts. or
has played the tape-line too rashly.
But the fact is. Warner suffered kind
OF moral paralytic stroke. He couldn't
realize that ten years of scrupulous
self-sacrifcing attention to another
mans business could end in that way.
1t bothered him, and 1t doesn't do for
the average man to get bothered when
on Broadway at the rush hour IL he
takes his mind off the brink for mo-
ment, he is gone. Poor Warner was
probably thinking Of his children, and
the electric destroyer struck him on
the left side.'

said, for l intend to be mistress of it

why, Lottie Gilman, what do you

'T'll marry Ellery Chase and get the
claim after ALL" she returned in her
teasing tones.
A few days after this dialogue be-

dered the young ranchwoman a service
by finding and returning to her herd
some "strays" which she had thought
were hopelessly lost. Helen Gilman
was riding along on her pony, inspect

drove up the strays and in straight

he had found them.

Specie. OF Blind Crea,ur,..

Naturalists declare that there are III
species of blind creatures known to
science, but many hundreds of species
of blind cave insects have been dis
covered in recent years. They are
mostly white, either from lack of the
stimulus Of light or from bleaching OF
the skin. Some species have small
eyes, and some have none. There are.
no doubt, many more species still to
be discovered, as nearly every descrip
ton OF fish found in the sea at great
depths, where the light cannot pene-
trate, is quite blind. To make up for
the lack Of sight they are provided
with feelers most delicately construct
ed. Blind insects, as well as fish are
found in the Mammoth Cave OF Ken
lucky, and in fact, blind creatures are
common in all situations not otherwis ,
hostile to the existence of animal life
where light is absent The want OF
sight in these creatures Is believed IN
be the direct effect of the absence OF
the stimulus of light, for in most cases
rudimentary eyes are found. proving

Undoubtedly the parents OF every

mothers think that the boys room does
not require near the pretty furnishings
that the daughters does, and that
boys are careless and boys are rough,
with the result that the boys room
is often the one that is put off with
the least expense and the least and
las. effort. Naturally boys do not care
for the pretty" things as girls do; but
the things that are lovely to them they
do care for greatly. Boys do not want
the fussy dainties that a girl enjoys
but they know when they are we'll
treated, when loving care regarding
their especial tastes is shown. They
like chiefly TO be let alone, TO play in
their own way; no nagglng for harm

friends to their room. The wise par

be very different from what you would

cried Lottie quickly. "'You got II
fairly. and | don't care two straws for
IT. Ii has always been Helen's ambi-
ton to have me turn ranchwoman,
too, SO we could live old-maid cattle
queens on adjoining claims"
Ellery Chase laughed merrily. but he
mentally decided TO break up this "old
maid scheme" as he called 1t, more
effectually than he had already. But
he soon discovered that II was not SO
easy to overcome the ranchwoman' S
prejudices. and often he returned from
the arena OF his efforts feeling almost
hopelessly vanquished by Helen Gill

pleasant and attentive to her when
ever they met Lottie and Ellery had
grown to be the best of friends, but
months went by making Helen no
friendlier than at first.
One day Helen set out to transact
some business that took her across the
Platte River. She started to cross the
stream by an Old ford not often used.
Her pony had traversed only a few
feet when she realized that the animal
was making no progress. He was
merely lifting one foot after another,
and withdrawing it with a peculiar
sucking sound.
"Quicksand!" she said, with little
apprehension. 81 never heard there

LONDON FOG'S COST.
Such an Atmospheric Observation Costs
Pretty Penny.

A London fog is an expensive visi-
tation, says the London Chronicle. A
day of it, counting the day at eight
hours, is estimated to cost anything
from $4,000 to 100000 in hard cash
No small proportion OF this goes to the
gas and electric light companies. which
have to supply about third more
power than usual. But there are also
the railways. Fog signaling Is expen-
sive. At Chaplain Junction alone $50
has been spent by a single railway
company during days fog in extra
pay to the platelayers. When the
red light cannot be seen at distance
of 100 yards the platelayers become
fog signalers, and for this they are
paid shilling day in addition to
their regular wages, and fourpence per
hour overtime, provided the overtime
does not run into a second shilling
Fog signals like the cuckoo, are more
frequently heard than seen, and, like a
number of things, such as babies, cats,
and crickets, make an amount OF noise
altogether out of proportion to their
size. The largest of those in use is
scarcely bigger than crown piece and
is a quarter of an inch in depth. The
little tin box contains teaspionful OF
gun powder and three percussion caps
and is fitted to the rail by lead rib
bon. They come from Birmingham
mostly, and they cost exactly a penny
apiece. A hundred and fifty thousand
or so are purchased by big railway
company in the year, and there are
not many left over at the end OF It,
