Thirst in children's ailments is gen. orally a conspicuous feature and one that most people treat enormously. Na- ture cries out for water, but milk is given instead. If mothers would bear in mind that milk is food and not a drink then there would be less suffering induced by mistaken kindness. Boil the water first and allow 1t to cool; 1t can be given frequently. and the result will be that the little patient will become less fretful, the thirst will be assuaged and the feverish condition relieved.

TEN, and when he had bankrupted
Monte Carlo he was to turn to the re-
sorts at Nice and Ostend, and do the
same for them. He failed, as others
had failed before him. And just as he
had lost his last penny another man
was playing the bank and winning
This latter was Charles NJ. Schwab
the president of the billion dollar steel
trust. He had gone to Monte Carlo for
recreation and had tried his luck in the
gambling room merely as diversion.
While it might be too much to say that
he did not care whether he lost or won,
1t certainly is true that he had no great
$4,000 to the good on the same day
that the Earl of ROsslyn had lost his
last sou and had quilted Monaco in dis
gust.
The scheme of Lord Rosslyn was well
advertised. He had. he aimed. learned
the secret of breaking the bank from
man who had made life study of
trente- et-quarante, the game to he
played. The reason the SCHEME was
not tried before was because no one
person could manage it and beside 1t
required a good deal of capital. When
Lord Rosslyn acquired the secret he
formed company and invited the pub
lie TO buy shares. He then secured six
expert players who were initiated into
the secret under the eyes of Lord Ross
,,,, h;nSalf Six DlayprS were selected
because of the great strain entailed
owing to intricate mental calculations
and the plan of operation was that
when one player became exhausted an
other was to take his place. And yet
the much advertised scheme failed mis-
erably.
Lord Rosslyn has led varied career
He has been rancher in Australia. a
sugar planter in the United States. a

FRATERNAL INSURANCE.
State Law Upheld by the Supreme
Court.

Olympia, July 13.-The supreme
court in an opinion upholds the consti-
tutionality of section 2 Of the act of
1901, regulating fraternal Insurance
companies. The section in question is
the principa protective feature of the
whole act, as it sets out table of NOR
tally assessment rates that shall be
charged by fraternal assessment insur-
ance companies organized under the
act.
The action was brought by the state
to enioin the Fraternal Knights and
Ladies from doing business until they
corrected the violations of the table of
minimum rates.
The company obtained reversal OF
the case in the superior court on the
ground that the complaint did not
state a cause of action, but the SUI
preme court reverses this decision
The association contended that the law
was class legislation. in that il exclud-
ed from the operations OF the act COM
r,anies organized prior to its enact
ment. I he supreme court holds that
inasmuch as the act does not discrim-
mate between associations organized
subsequent to its enactment it is con
stitutional.
