well they may warn, for their refusing to
make way for an ungovernable toboggan
has caused many broken head or rib.
The nonotonous thud of snowshoes on
the hard, crisp snow, the swish OF NorWe-
gian skis, the long line of low sleighs with
flowing buffalo robes and jingling bells. the
merry laughter and talk Of those on foot
dragging their toboggans, the picturesque
costumes sashes, sweaters and blanket
coats-it seems hard to believe that you
are not in Russia or Norway. Excitement
is in the air. an atmosphere of keen.
healthy enjoyment that is irresistible.
There is to be ''fete de mutt at the Park
Toboggan Slide tonight-that is the destina-
ton of all these pleasure seekers.
The slide is built on the western side OF
the montain. 1t consists of four shoots or
tracks of solid ice banked up on either side
with snow to prevent the toboggans from
jumping the track, is at an angle OF about
% degrees and half mile long. Huge
bonfires have been lit on either side, and
the slide is illuminate by torches, Chinese
lanterns and colored lights that throw now
a pale green, now rose colored reflection
a livid mass OF flame. And above it all the
stars shine on in their clear, cold brilllance,
silently watching.

Quinine in Typhoid Fever.
From the PHILADELPHIA Medical Jorrpo1

FROM the Philadelphia Medical Journal
When the coal tar products were intro
duced as substitutes for auinine they were
received with an enthusiasm which only
embittered the more the disappointment fol-
lowing the discovery that none of them are
free from danger and even the safest are
only limited in their applicability in the
treatment of fevers. This realiza ton Of the
shortcomings of these new antipyretics
wrought reaction which resulted in a sort
OF therapeutic nihilism, in 30 far as the
drug treatment Of the fever proper is con-
cerned. Quinine Is generally no longer
thought Of as an all-around antipyretic
and Is used mainly as a tonic or as the
specific against malaria. So grounded has
become the general belief that large doses
OF quinine can be useful only in malaria
that this drug Is used for diagnostIc pur-
poses and any remittent fever which Yields
to the administration Of large doses Of out
nine Is pronounced by some clinicians to he
malaria, without any examination of the
blood or even in spite Of the absence of
plasmodia. This view, however, is under
going some modification, and the time-hon-
ored quinine is again brought to the front
as an antipyretic by some German clint
clans.

The Ever Debatable Question Of It's
Durability. ).

From the Philadelphia Medical Journal.
The statement (made by j. H. Lowman, in
his article read before the Academy OF
Medicine in Cleveland) that it is not at all
unlikely that tuberculosis is a universal
disease, and that all mankind are more or
less susceptible to It, as they are to measles.

then the whole race must be taught how
to live and where to live, how to rest
and when to stop, as well as how to
avoid contagion At the present time more
attention Is given to the actual invalid, and
this is done by system Of air. food and
rest, medicine being very little given. The
care of these patients in hospitals and sana-
toria has been universally adopted, espe-
cially in Germany, where there are fifty
seven folks sanatoria and twenty-six In
process OF building. Those patients In the
incipient stage are most favorable for sana-
tortum treatment, and 1t has been stated
that In fifteen Sanatoria 60 per cent of the
patients left the institutions as cured. The
great defect In this country is the want of
some suitable place to send such persons
after their discharge from sanatoria, as Is
done abroad, where they are sent to con-
valescent homes, In which they are allowed
to stay two or three months. thus securing
a more permanent cure.

Teaching French at Annapolis

Teaching French by machinery ia the
latest method in vogue at the Naval Acad-
envy, said an old naval officer to a Star
man In the lobby OF the New Willard this
morning. when I was a student at the
academy We had to depend solely upon one
OF the professors, and then when we got
to France In our travels we had to learn
the language over again. Nowadays the
monograph is used. A genuine French
teacher in France talks the language into
the machine. and the cylinders, reproducing
the correct lntonauons, expressions and

The Fear Of Fat,
From the Indianapolis Newt

Theodore Roosevelt, President of the
United States, is distressed at the thought
OF getting fat. He Is, 1t Is said, approaching
the 200-pound mark. and he is of the opin-
ion that man OF his height cannot weigh
200 pounds without being fat. So 1t will be
seen that he shares the unaccountabie pre-
JUDGE against flesh. without being fat
WELL suppose he Is fat. We remember that
the great Caesar said, LET me have men
about me that are fat" and though the In
ference Is perhaps not wholly compliment
AIRY, inasmuch as Caesar held that lean men
thought too much. yet his testimonial must
stand. Falstaff again identified fat with
goodness. for he said. There live not three
good men unhanged in England; and one of
them is fat and grows DID," Dryden makes
one OF his characters say: 81 am resolved
to grow fat and look young at forty" It Is
true that Thomson thinks that poets should
not be fat. for he remarks: "A bard here
dwelt more fat than bard beseems." But
Mr.. Roosevelt. as far as the world knows.
has no ambitions in the line Of poetry. And
Thomson's Implication is that any one not q
bard may be as tat as he pleases.

A CANADIAN WINTER.
Sports Patronized by Young and Old
Throughout the Cold Season.

From the New 1Ork Evening lpsl.
Probably no country in the world derives
more genuine enjoyment from Ions, severe
winter than Canada. Montrealers in par
tlcular seem to be first In adopting the
sports OF other wintry countries, and the
situation of the city at the base of noun
tain which is devoted to the people makes
II possible for these sports to become part
OF the everyday life. 1t is beautiful
mountain, this one Of ours, and one always
feels grateful to the volcano that is reputed
to have created 1t.
For the last week the thermometer has
been yacillaung between 10 and 20 degrees
below zero; tonight the temperature is
somewhat milder. A curious procession
winds its way up the mountain side, almost
RhoStlike, seen in the dim lights, the NOV
ing figures silhouetted against the white
background OF snow Even the trees with
their bare arms stretched heavenward seem
like phantom giants crying out silent
warning to the crowd of merrymakers. And
