a constant reader OF the Dayton Volks-

to advertise only the best in its col.

Pain Balm advertised therein for lame

bottle of it for his wife, who for eight
weeks had suffered with the most ter
rible pains in her back and could get
no relief. He says: After using the
Pain Balm for a few days my wife said
o me, i feel as though born anew and
before using the entire contents of the
bottle the ~unbearable pains had en-
tirely vanished and she could again
take up her household duties" He is
very thankful and hopes that all suf-
fering likewise will hear OF her Won
derful recovery. This valuable lini-

of New York Board of Health.

Consumption is well recognized now
to be an infectious and communicable
disease under unhygienic conditions
1t is easily communicated from one
person to another.
There is no doubt that one of the
chief sources of communication is the
habit of expectorating in public places,
Millions of people. perfectly healthy,
are every day subjected to possible in
lection by thoughtless people who are
ignorant of or violate the most ele-
mentary principles of hygiene. The
measures taken by the board of health
to awaken people TO a sense of the
great danger have done a vast amount
of good. An educational publicity of
the work that is going on is needed
now.
The disease which is most widely
known and most fatal is consumption,
technically called tuberculosis. 1t is
the cause of one-fourth of all the
deaths among human beings during
adult life. and probably more than one
half of the worlds population which
reach adult life contract this disease AT
some time.
The usual channel of communication
for consumption is the e~Xpectoration
of persons whose lungs are affected by
tuberculosis.
Here are some remarkably instruc-
tive statistics on consumption in Man
haitian and the Bronx. They tell their
own story:
In 1881 the death rate from tubercu-
losis was 4.92 per cent; for the five
years from 1881 to 1856 it was sos per
cent; from 1886 to 1890 $50; from 1890
to 1896 3.11; from 1896 to 1901 2.56.
This shows a gradual decrease, which
is very noticeable for the last two
years.
The total number OF deaths from tn
b~erculosis in 1898 for a population OF
3,272,4lS was 9,265; whereas, in 1901,
for a population of 3,536,5l7, it was
only 9,412, demonstrating the fact that
although the population had increased,
there was a material decrease in the
statistics.-New York World.

BY Health officer Ellis.

Whenever we went out last year we
could find v~iolators of the sanitary law
against splitting without having to look
for them. Now we have to watch like
hawks'in order TO catch any one in the
act.
The principal places for these of.
lenses were on the surface cars and in
the elevated trains. But now splitting
is principally confined to the ferry
boats and 10 the stairs and other APP
proaches leading to the elevated
trains.
The average number of arrests last
year was about fifty a day. Now ii is
scarcely more than five or ten, and in
these latter cases it is only done by
absent-minded people or strangers
who do not know the law.
If an offender who has violated the
law in a ferry house is taken before

S"
| am in favor of adopting every pos.
sible method of preventing the spread
of tuberculosis. The American con.
gress of tuberculosis. which meets next
month in the city of New York in Joint
session with the Medico-Legal society,
will discuss the subject of keeping
streets and public conveyances free
from danger from the spread of con.
sumption.
Our city regulations in respect to the
prevention of splitting in the public
conveyances. upon streets, and espec-
tally in depots, is one of the best for.
| ward movements for the suppression
of tuberculosis that has ever been in.
augurateu.
1t is drawing the attention of all
scientists and those who have the care
of other cities, to New York and the
| action taken by this city is being imi.
tated by many other municipalities.
All scientific authorities concur in
| the opinion that sputum is one of the
| most dangerous sources of infection.
The fact that consumption is a com
| municable disease is now recognized
by the government of the United
States, as is shown in the regulations
recently adopted for the prevention of
the immigration of those suffering
from this disease. especially in its adj
vanced stages. The courts have rec
ognized this view and have sustained
the government in its position.
The whole theory of the crusade now
going forward in all civilized countries
to prevent the spread of tuberculosis is
based upon the fact that it is the duty
| of every government to take legal
| steps and lawful means to avert and
| prevent the spread of this terrible dis.
| ease.
1t seems to me that it must he a cam.
| paign of education. Most of the PEG.
| pie do not seem to understand the dan
| ger that comes to them by ~neglecting
| to prevent the spread of this disease
| by every means which legal regula.
| tions and special legislation will &C
| complish.
Let any one for a moment read the
returns from the various health depart
! ments and see the death rate
which this single disease presents. 1t
is greater than any other disease with
which humanity is afflicted.
1t seems difficult for our people to
realize the propriety of doing any &C.
ton whatever in conformity with legal
regulations. But where the health of
the community il general is involved
il is the part of common prudence to
take such steps as will insure the pre-
vention of the spread of the disease to
the utmost ability and the law-making
power.

Many new roses have been intro,
duced recently. The Queen of Edgely
is identical with the American Beauty
in every respect except in color. which
is a much lighter pink. When the
Liberty variety is well grown we have
everything desired in the way of a
crimson rose. The flower is large. re.
tains its color for a longer period than
the ordinary rose and does not require
a high temperature to force it. Con
sequently this variety can be grown
more easily than the average dollhouse
rose. We have never succeeded to our
complete satisfaction in growing the
most perfect crimson roses in the
bright sunshine of New Mexico except
under shade.

BY Ernest j. Lederle, M. ~, Phi. D.
President of Board of Health,

At present the health department of
New York is doing all ii can to educate
people by giving them a knowledge of
the fact that consumption and other
diseases may be spread by %unsanitary
habits. 1t is all a matter of education,
however. and | look forward to the
time when it will no longer be neces-
sary to threaten people with fine and
imprisonment for not Observing the
rules of common cleanliness.
Even as it is a man thinks twice be.
fore he spits once in the street car OF
on the deck of a ferry boat.
The average number of arrests pei
week since the law went into effect
has been thirty for both New York and
Brooklyn.
In most of these cases the magis
trates before whom the delinquents
were brought imposed fines of 81 each
upon about twenty out of the thirty
people brought before them. In eight
OF such cases sentence was suspended;
the remaining two were discharged.
Up to a short time ago certain mag
istrates were inclined to take a rather
lenient view of the situation. II spit
myself" said one of the judges, in dis
charging a prisoner. The usual method
of judicial punishment is a reprimand
for the first offense.
Some of the judges seemed TO be of
the opinion that each man is entitled
TO n spit-that is, If It is the first
offense and he promises not to repeat
il, he is let on.

just returned from the district where
the alleged rebellion exists say thai
there is no uprising of Yaquis there.
The trouble is confined to a few who
refuse to conform to the order of the

tration of all Yaquis. The Mexican
government has no fears whatever OF
an uprising. The foregoing was OBJ
