A HIGH ORDER OF HEROISM.

Within the past few years we have
seen some examples of heroism OF
very high order The patriotism
which inspires a man to risk his life
for his country has been very prop
erly our ideal of exalted courage, but
a newer and higher class of heroes
has been produced as result of our
wonderful and complex civilization,
men and women who are willing to
risk their lives for the good OF hui
mainly at large and that too without
the excitement of battle or the moral
support of their comrades in arms.
These are the Psychologists, who, ele-
waited by their enthusiasm above their
natural impulse towards self preser-
walton, voluntarily submit themselves
to dangerous exposures and tests Tor
the sake of obtaining knowledge
which will benefit the world. such
men were the Vienna Psychologists
who lost their lives through their ex-
periments with cultures of Bubonic
Plague bacillus. Another brave man
was Dr. Garnault, the Frenchman,
who was inoculated with bovine tu-
berculous in order that he might
test Dr. Kochs theory. A young
woman who submitted to a similar in
incubation subsequently committed
suicide when she developed symp-
toms of tuberculosis. Along the same
line, but promising less serious con-

Department of Agriculture who have
offered themselves to Prof. Wiley,
chief chemist of the department, as
subjects of experimentation in the
tests which he wishes to make of the
injurious effects of personalities in
meats and other foods when taken
into the human stomach. They will
be confined to the diet and conditions
which he will prescribe and the test
will occupy several weeks. They
will probably this year have no
Thanksgiving turkey like mother
used to bake" and will be forced to
pass up other epicurean pleasures.
1t is to be hoped, however, that these
doctored and supposedly deleterious
foods will at least be toothsome, so
that the palates of the victims will
not join in the revolt that is likely
to break out at any time among their
digestive forces.

JAMES A. MOORE.

There are some really remarkable
men in Seattle, who are devoting all
their energies to the up-building of
the metropolis. One of these men,
better acquainted, is James A. Moore,
whose photograph we are able to re-
produce on our first page. To no one
other individual can as much credit
be given for the growt. the city is
making. A big man-big in body, big
in every way, broad-minded with a
scope of vision far beyond that OF the
average individual. He plans on a
large scale, and executes admirably.
To him city-building is an art. In his
way he has much of the quality that
makes j. Pierpont Morgan such a
force His office reminds one of moth
ing so much as the headquarters OF
the commander Of an army. Dozens
of people flock in to see him constant
ly, contractors, builders, architects,
1Sdl S0ldlC IlCu, p1oopCNtifO pulNhc1o
ers, tenant, laborers, etc. He handles
a volume of business that would stag
ger an ordinary man, and all the time
is planning new projects and enter
prises. During the last three years he
has been the means of investing sew
eral millions OF dollars of capital in
the best and handsomest improve
ments in the city. The recently COM
pleted Arcade building, which is one
of the finest buildings west of Chicago,
is an example The Lumber Exchange
building, now being finished, is an
other, while other Improvements he
has made include the Lincoln apart
ments, the Curtis and Whitcomb
blocks; and also the several residence
additions, principal of which is the
famous Capitol Hill addition, one OF
the finest residence tracts to be found
in any city and which is now being
solidly built up with magnificent
homes under Mr.. Moore's direction.

A good move for any rural commun-
ity is the effort to establish strong
organization for mutual protection and
welfare. All such undertakings are
worthy and some day out of these
local guilds may come a national or
ganization possessing real power and
permanent conference.

Many people, when asked to sub
scribe for farm journal, say they are
already taking more papers than they
can read. This is quite likely true.
They take lot of papers that are not
worth the time it takes to read them.
1t is not good business policy to sub
scribe and pay for paper that one
cannot afford time to read and study.
The farmer who offers the excuse that
he has more papers that he can afford
to read needs to begin reform in
this line. He should from a business
standpoint, discard these useless
journals and take something worthy
of his patronage, perusal and study.

The Smallpox Situation
At Friendly W. Va.

Editor OH Review.
MAR. "a, 'o3.-The smallpox
crisis at Friendly has been put
under good control by action of the
county Board of Health, and a
committee appointed by the coun-
ell of that town, consisting of DR..
Easter, chairman, and physician In
chief; P. II. Anderson and A. L.
Stewart. This committee has done
everything that Is possible In order
to check Is dreaded disease. DR..
Easter reports that his patient Is
getting along nicely and Is having
a very light attack of this dreaded
disease and he does not expect but
few will take smallpox from this
one case. The hotel Is closed and
a strict quarantine Is maintained
around the building where the pa
tiept Is confined. ALI persons who
have been in contact or near Forest
Williamson have been ordered by
the local Board of Health to shut
themselves up commencing Sunday
at noon until all danger IS past or
the time expires to be liable to take
this contagious disease. So far
this local board of health have
found Fl persons liable to this dis
ease by this exposure and have
them confined under strict quar-
antine to see if any will take the
disease. Should any person In.
fected be found aillng by DR. Easter
In his daily rounds to see all such
persons they will be removed t; a
suitable house outside of the limits
of Friendly and there kept until
the disease developes and the pa.
tient gets well, Business still keeps
going on as usual In Friendly and
1t IS hoped that the worst IS past.
There seems to be no danger what
ever from contsgion or spread Of

troll and In the hands of skillful

Hyomei is just as valuable in the
treatment of asthma, as it is in catar-

been received from prominent men and
women who have been cured of asth-

Rev. George II. Honey of Deer Park

Mrs. Honey had been suffering severely
three weeks daily with \ asthma when
she began using it, and after a few
times of breathing it the asthma
ceased, and has not returned. She has
had this trouble since she was seven
years old, and we have spent hundreds
of dollars in search of relief. When

most remarkable thing. that once using
