the policy of the white race in this

suppress all aspirations for the higher
life from their minds. It was, there

COURSE MAPPED OUT.
How the Health Department Pre-
pares for Emergencies.
SMALLPOX ON a STREET CAR
Health Commissioners Hall Tells
What He Would Do in
Such n Case.

Inc emergencies that are constantly
arising in connection with smallpox often
call from prompt and resourceful action
oy the health department.. To many it
seems strange that the department can
attend to all of its other business and
yet be ready for every smallpox exigency
thorough organization accounts for part
OF the departments efficiency. The rest
is accounted for by the fact that Health
Commissioner Hall has gone over many
possible combinations in advance and
mapped out course of action, so that
when, the time for action comes, the de-
partment moves swiftly and with pre-
cision.
One OF the emergencies that has not yet
arisen, but for which program has been
mapped out, is that of a case of smallpox
discovered on street car. What would
'be the health departments procedure in
such a situation?
IT would be lust this says DR.. Hall:
Il would Immediately have the car
stopped while made a speech to the oc-
cupanss telling them the situation.
would then order the car run out to the
emu OF the line, or onto some convenient
switch, and hold 1t there with all it's oc-
cupants until every last person had been
vacclnated. I would then run the car
back to town, dropping the passengers out
en- route, and then send it straight to the
barns for distinction. BY this plan all
delay to other cars on the line would be
obviated and the people exposed to the
Infection would be out to as little incon-
venlence as possible. Naturally, persons
riding in the same car with smallpox
suspect would desire to get out without
waiting until the end Of the line was
reached, and in warm weather might
lose few through the windows. But
really the additional quarter of an hour
OF exposure would be no added menace,
and after vaccination the passengers could
go about their business without fear of
the result. / have heard Of cases where
smallpox suspects were dragged from cars
when discovered and held along the line
somewhere until the ambulance came up,
and the car allowed to go on. But there
will be nothing of that sort done in Min
neapolis, / assure YOU"

GOPHER ELECTION
SoDhomores at the. ..U" Use Aus
traIian Ballot System. '-->'

sophomores at the Tux had lesson in
practical politics yesterday. They elect
ed the board editors for the Gopher, and, to
make the election seem like the real
thing" employed the Australian ballot
system. The polls were open from g.: 80
a. M. until p. M, giving ample oppor-
tunity for all members of the class to vote
without excuse for "fagging' a class.
The count was commenced as soon as the
polls were closed, but the vote had been
large and the work progressed so slowly
that the results of the ELECTION were not
known until $50. The announcement Of
successful candidates was made by the
chairman Of the election committee, and
was as follows:
Managing editor, Louis L. Collins; editor
in-chief, II. V. Fuller; business manager, r.
L. King; assistant business manager, E. j.

Of strong; Endorsements by competent

umph was immediate and complete, and
the demand. for return engagement was

lies in her beautiful voice, her wonderful

method is natural and quiet. She is a

"Armgart" gives abundant scope for her

the love and the ambition of beautiful

the delights Of triumphing in song will
satisfy every aspiration of her soul. and
refuses even to divide her devotion to her
art with affection for a. s+lover Her
awakening comes with the loss of her
voice, but pride then forbids her to recall
the lover whom she refused for ambitious
sake. She learns the lesson of humility
and takes her place in obscurity to find
contentment In serving others. @ra :.

An Ideal
Medicine.
A New Discovery Which Cures al
Forms or Catarrh.


The tablet is the ideal form in which to ad-
minister medicine, but until recently no sue
cessful catarrh tablet had ever been at
tempted. There is now, however, an excel
lent and palatable remedy for catarrh in tab
let form, known as Stuarts Catarrh Tablets
ana sold by druggists, composed of the most
recent discoveries in medicine for cure of
catarrh and results from their use have been
highly gratifying.
The old-time treatment Of catarrh was In
the form of inhalers, washes, douches, sprays,
etc. Later internal remedies We're used
with greater success, but being in LIQUID or
powder FORM. were inconvenient to use, and
like all medicines in liquid or powder form
lose thier medicinal properties when opened
exposed to the air.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain highly
concentrated antiseptics, Red Gum. Blood
Root, etc, which kill the catarrh germs in
the blood and mucous membrane, and in this
respect are strictly scientific and modern-
because all authorities are now agreed that
catarrh is constitutional blood disease and
local applications can have only a transitory
effect. ...- -
The use Of inhalers, deuches and SPRAYS is
a nuisance and inconvenience and can in
nowlse compare fayorably with the same an
tiseptics given In tablet form internally,
where they can reach the stomach and blood
