comparatively rare disease, and in the
ordinary course of his medical practice
not one physician in a hundred ever
comes In contact with genuine case.
This being true, whatever the average
doctor may know regarding this dread
malady has been learned from books or
impaired by some medical college instruc-
tor who himself, perhaps, has no knowl-
edge gained from actual experience in
its treatment. Under such circumstances
1t is not surprising that mistakes in dag
nosis are frequent. Even health officials
In large cities, who see cases of the dis

guish it from measles, or from the erup-

"a certain preventive is very generally adj
mitted by medical men and medical au-
thorities. To be sure, not every one who
has been vaccinated is immune, neither is
every one who has had an attack of the

gentleman who died from smallpox who
had been twice severely afflicted with the
disease, and who was very badly Scared
from the previous attacks.
The fact remains, however, that vacci-
nation will prevent contagion in nearly
every case, and when smallpox occurs
after successful vaccination 1t is much
less severe and the death rate is proper

cination, with reliable virus no trouble or
danger is likely to arise; then it would

RS" are the chief end of education, the
fads are waste of time. If education IS
mental and spiritual power, as the best
educators are now saying, the fads are
indispensable.
A child reared on arithmetic, old-fash-
Toned geography and the A B G method
of education is apt to be mentally starv-
ed md lean. Drawing, color work, mud
pies" music, manual training and con-
structive work, however simple, seize the
innermost interest of the child.
That there are educational dangers
from "fads" is not denied. First, because
in the hands of impulsive educational re-
formers the fad is likely to be overdone.
For an ideal system it requires ideal
teaching. Our normal school course
ought to be three or even four years, in
stead of two.
Children who must be at work at IL
years old have no time for fads. Level
the conditions up to the ideal standards
Of education. Any fight against fads
should be fight, not for their abolition.
but for their proper modification and
for their increased effectiveness in public

Little Is known of the first cause of
this malignant disease, but nowadays it
occurs only by the infection being con-
veyed from one person to another. Small
poX contagion exceeds in virulence that
of any other malady. The infectious prin-

pocks and in the crnsts resulting from
their desiccation, and probably it is con-

over, 1t peryades the emanations from the
person. SO 1t may be contracted without
actual contact with the one infected.
The volatile contagium may extend to a
considerable distance, it having been
known to cross stream of water nearly
half mile wide, and when attached to
articles Of clothing, merchandise, paper
money, ETC., it is very energetic and per-
sistent. The disease is probably more in
tensely contagious during the vascular
at all periods of its course. 1t may also
be carried from one person to another
without the person who carries it himself
suffering from an attack.
The period of incubation is usually thir.
teen days, although in rare cases the
time may be shorter. The symptoms are
ushered in with chill. this being follow
ed by high fever, great weakness, vomit-
ing, severe headache and pain in the
back. Then the little red eruption APP

needlessly exposed to contagion by being
hurried away to isolation hospitals by
ignorant health authorities. Smallpox is
