No use to hunt tigers with

tiger any and it's awfully risky
for you.
Consumption is a tiger
among diseases. 1t is stealthy
but once started it rapidly
eats up the flesh and destroys
the life. No use to go hunting
it with ordinary food and med

1t still advances. Good heavy
charges of SCOTS Emulsion
will stop the advance. The

Too Great a Sacrifice.

hope" he said. "Yonder battery must

The officers looked at one another,
but made no response.
What" exclaimed the commander.
Does brave soldier fear to risk his
life in the service OF his country"
1T isn't the fear OF death that re-
strains us, general" replied one OF the
officers, holding his head proudly erect.
Its the fear that we may be unfor-
mnate enough to live through it, be
proclaimed heroes, and then be abused,
ard ridiculed, and caricatured by the
newspapers all the rest OF our days We
couldn't stand that, general!
Whereupon the commander ordered
general advance, as being the safest
thing for all concerned.

Well Pat, isn't it about time you

"The two hundred you promised if

Sure, an did Oh promise that? Oh

Cost of Nerlecting "a Hint.

In 1881 physician, DR.. Finlay. sug.
gested that mosquitoes arc the trans
mitters Of the germs of yellow fever.
The profession ignored the suggestion.
This fact has many sided signif-
canoe, the chief Of which is its cost In
human lives and suffering. The finan.
cial expense cannot be estimated, and
in only one small part Of the world can
We estimate the life expense. In Ha.
vana yellow fever continued to claim
it's victims as it had done for two cen.
turtles. In 1900 there were 1914 cases,
with 80 deaths. Then came most
dramatic and startling rediscovery and
demonstration Of DR.. Finlay's discov-
cry, and there was sudden end Of yell
low fever. The last case was on Sep.
TENDER 2S. 1901. But during the twenty
years that have elapsed over 5000 lives
have been lost. Major Gorgas in his
report may well say, to the immortal
honor Of the army medical corps, that
"the discovery made is only cxcelled
by that Of Jenner, and as time goes on
1t will stand in the same class as that
great boon to mankind" American

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.
General Trade Conditions.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
of Trade" says: Prospects have greatly
improved through the adjustment OF
numerous labor controversies, yet the
anthracite coal strike situation is TIN
changed and supplies are nearing de-
pletion. Distribution of merchandise
has met with some interruption owing
to freight blockades, the volume OF bus
mess being very heavy. Statistics OF
pig iron production, according to the
Iron Age" are more satisfactory than
might have been expected in view OF
The great scarcity of fuel. A weekly
capacity Of 336,465 tons is 1850 tons
less than the high record of May I, it
is true, but compares favorably with all
earlier dates and shows all increase OF
32,6I8 tons over the output year ago.
Southern furnaces have contracted SO
far in advance that they have practically
withdrawn from the market and all
dates for deliveries are remote except
where foreign arrivals are offered.
Pressure for steel is undiminished, and
the urgency OF domestic consumers is
shown by additional imports Of large
size. Structural material is sought by
car shops and bridge builders, while
many office buildings and other steel
structures are planned. Coke produc-
ton ~, tho Conne11 cyi11e reoion eyreeds

tivity. Yet shipments are unsatisfac-
tory, causing frequent delays. Shoe
manufacturers at the East have receiv-
ed practically all OF the orders that will
be placed, and new business is now re-
stricted to sample orders in Spring
lines. Despite the very favorable re-
ports from dry goods jobbers regarding
The bright outlook for Fall trade, con-
ditions in the primary market and at
the mills are now devoid OF incident
Buyers are still governed by the i'm
preston that large cotton crop is as
Sured, and the resulting lower prices

Tor goods. Holders thus far have made
few concessions and consequently trad
ing is dull, except in specialties. Con-
sidering the official report Of cereal
crop conditions the hrmness of quota
tons during the past week has been
somewhat surprising. Failures for the
week numbered 100 in the United
States, against 1853 last year.

HydrOphObIa.

Hydrophobia has always been a rare
disease in this country, but within the
past few weeks surprising number of
cases have been reported. Cats are
liable to rabies, but it is more common
to dogs, and seems to arise from over
eating and too little liberty. Pets that
are kept in house all the time live an
artificial life, especially if they are
stimulated by high feeding. One ami.
NAL also communicates the germs to
others, and sometimes a dozen dogs.
cats, horses and cattle will be affected

Pasteur treatment of the bitten SUBJ

appear uneasy and detected, and, in.
stead of shooting a dog that has bit.
ten person, the animal should be
chained and kept under watch to see
II genuine rabies Is developed. Many
cases of supposed hydrophibia are
merely hysteria, and if bitten person
knows that the dog who has inflicted
the wound is healthy, he will be re-
lieved from much anxiety. whereas if
the animal is quickly killed the uncer-
tainty as to the danger may result in
simulated hydrophobia, with nervous
breakdown. On general principles it
would be well to end the lives of the
poor dogs and cats that wander about
our cities, unfed, uncared for, sickly.
nuisance to neighborhoods, a burden
to themselves.-Brooklyn Eagle.
