OUNCE OF PREVENTION

With the advent of cold weather the
festive smallpox microbe puts on his
working clothes and gets down to bus
mess. He and his relations have thir-
ty pimply victims in one small town in
Utah. Westward the disease spreads
herself by stationing an official at her
Eastern border to inspect passengers
from infected districts. A small por-
ton of the money that Nevada spends
annually fighting the disease might
proftably be expended in preventing
it's introduction after the California
method.

HOT AFTER THE TRUSTS

A deluge of bills will be presented
before Congress on the trust question.
If the executive and judicial branches
of the government had only enforced
existing laws on this matter Congress
would have more time to devote to
needed legislation, but these antitrust
measures may serve to keep our rep
resentatives SO busy that they will
have no opportunity to get into mis-
chief and for this a nation will be
grateful.

Manufactures and Workmen Not on
Footing Of Equality.
Under a French law still in force
the communication by a factory
workman, clerk or manager of a
trade secret to a foreigner, or to q
Frenchman resident abroad, is pun
lshable with a term OF Imprisonment
ranging from two to five years and
with a fine ranging from 5000 to
10000 francs. The culprit is, more
over, deprived of his civil rights and
kept uuder police surveillance for a
period of from five to ten years after
mis- release from prison. A similar
communication made to a Frenchman
resident in France is less heavily
punished, the term of Imprisonment
varying in this case from three
months to two years and the fine
from fifteen to 200 francs. In the case
OF a state arms or ammunition fac
tory the maximum penalty must be
imposed. 1t appears, further, that in
France the proprietor of a factory
has a.: right, without reserve, to the
discoveries and Inventions made
within his field OF. work by any of his
employees.

Docility of 7olstoy.

Tolstoy is a truly great man, as
men go, and it does not lessen the
esteem in which he is universally re.
garded to learn from Nine: Benton
that he is no longer adverse to the
c~ounsels~of his wife, but leafs and
drinks exactly what she gives him,
with the docility of, a child" This
completely disposes of the theory
that Tolstoy is the arbiter OF his own
fortunes, and establishes the fact
that when it comes down to a matter
Of household discipline he is as
poworless and inoffensive as the rest
of us. 1t is a beautiful thing not
merely to eat and drink whatever
may be provided in the lady's good
judgment, but to be docile as we'll.
Docility is an excellent trait in hus'
bands and other lower animals.-Ros.

ALL THE WORLD AKIN.

Relationship.

Very Easy Matter to Prove a Common
Relationship.
i. If we accept the old adage that Gig
ures won't, lie,"' as a true one, here is
a plausible way of proving that all the
people in the world are akin to each
other. 49, "
A man has two ancestors in the first
generation, his. father and his mCtic7.
In the second generation his ancestS-:s
are four, because he had two grand,
fathers and two grandmothers. Each
of these four mad two parents, there.
fore, in the third generation, there
are eight ancestors, that is, eight
great-grandparents.
Going on with this calculation, we
find that in the fourth generation
there are sixteen ancestors; in the
fifth generation, thirty-two; in the
sixth, sixty-four; in the seventh, 1913
In the tcnth generation there are 1,02A
ancestors; in the twentieth, 1,048, 576;
in the tEiTtieth, 1,073,834.
And as the entire population Of the
globe is only about 1900, 00O, 900, you
see. how it is possible to prove a com.
mon relationship.

Atmosphere of Happiness.

Happiness is, we maintain, a good
end. The only question is, how much
sacrifice is it worth? Well, certain
]y not the sacrifice Of sincerity and
certainly not the sacrifice of others,
but surely the sacrifice of the habit
of mental l~aziness, which il only self
sacrifice. If by a little trouble we
can create for ourselves a sweet at
mosphere in which to live, we are
surely doing nothing of which we
need be ashamed. After all, no one
breathes. his own atmosphere alone;
others breathe it with him. If hap.
piness is a despicable object, let us
face the fact sincerely and give up
all the many things which we now do
openly and excessively to obtain it.
If it is not, why should we not pull
ourselves together, give our attention
to the game and play up?-London

you see, has a tendency to send the

but though they worked for her,
hardly any of them had ever had a
chance Of hearing her beautiful voice.

King pagckert's Throne.

Much has been ~7ritten about the
antiquity of the throne on which
King Edward of England was crown
ed, but, as French journalists are now
taking pains to point out, it is not
nearly as old as the throne Of King
Dagobert, which is still religiously
preserved at the National Library in
Paris. According to the best authori-
ties, this throne dates back to the
seventh century, and consequently
it is many years older than the throne
of Edward the Confessor. Moreover,
there is a popular tradition that it
was fashioned by a saint VINO possess

Some Causes of Cancer.

Recent Investigations point to the
conclusion that one of the causes of
cancer is improper food and drink,
says Leslie's Weekly. That cancer
of the lips and mouth are caused by
excessive smoking is now a fact es-
tablished by the case of Gen. Grant
and others, and it has been intimated
that cancer microbes have been found
in certain vile smelling foreign
cheeses, for which some fashionable
people profess to have a great liking.
So far as the malady is %traceable to
causes like these the remedy to be ap.
piled is simple and easy, viz, to smoke
moderately, if at all, and to let all
moldy and decayed articles of food
alone, no matter if gourmets pretend
to like them.

near Prague. The water first turned
