The circumstances under which work
is performed are in many cases agree
able, the surrounding being up to the
modern standard Of comfort. Work
with the hands is always wholesome
and enjoyable under such circumstance
and can be pursued with adequate
exercise of all of ones better facul-
ties. 1t is said that many Of the en-
ployes of the steel works at Pittsburg
get $50 a day, their skill being in
valuable, in view of the critical nature
Of their work and the large values in
volved. The work and the wages are
such as to place the workman in
desirable position and cause the half
starved professional man to readjust
his ideas of the dignity of manual
labor. Such a readiustment is in pro-
gress. College students and graduates
are already, as the "Sun" recently
noted, going during vacations into
workshops for the useful experience
to be had there. Mechanical engineer
ing involves shop work and the same
is to be said Of all the numerous
branches Of engineering now so much
in favor. Manual labor in this country
long ceased to be regarded as degard-
ing, if it was ever so regarded by sensi
BILE men. The intellectual demands Of
modern manual labor in many lines
cannot but tend to elevate it in pub
lie esteem. AS it now pays best, the
next step will be, perhaps, to accord
it special honor, with the result that
ambitious youth will prefer it in some
of its forms to the professions.-Baltl-

A HUSBANDS DEFICIENCIES.
You are aware no woman can make
good for her husbands deficiencies.
The best wife in the world cannot do
it.
There are many things, though, that
the wife OF a man of average ability
can do for him which will make her
price above rubies and go long way
toward accomplishing his success in
life.
One of these things is to keep alive
his faith in himself. There comes time
in every mans career when his fate
rests in his wife's hands. 1t is when
the battle goes against him and he is
tempted to give up in despair.
Then if his wife reminds him that
luck always has been against him,
that the world is leagued together to
defeat him, that she told him he would
fail, and she knows he never can sue
ceed, that mans doom is sealed.
On the other hand, if she goes ahead
hopefully, always beckoning him on, tell
ing him she knows he can overcome all
obstacles, steadily showing her faith in
him, and refusing to give it up she
will inspire him with the courage and
determination which will eventually
win success.
Another way in which she can help
him is by taking an interest in his
business. Whether he sells salt her
ring or writes sonnets, she ought to
make him feel it pleasure to talk to
her about what he has been doing.
She may know all about his occupa-
tion, but if she is sensibly interested
her intuitions will be flashes of genius
by which any man might profit.
A mans business is closer to his
heart than anything else, and it is
foolish woman indeed who does not see
the benefits both may derive frem
cemradeship on that score.
Then a woman may be Of invaluable
assistance to her husband by making
friends for him, or she can do him in
calculable harm by making enemies.
She can selfishly tie him to her apron
strings, or she can urge him out among
people who can help him. .
Above all other ways she can pros
per his career by keeping home com
Portable for him. 1t is strange how
many women fail to realize that a
home is the power-house in which the
wage-earners of the family should
gather energy 10 night ana win the
battle Of life.
Every fireside ought to be haven
Of peace, where jaded nerves may be
soothed and restored If the woman
who is happily married chooses to ex-
haust her husbands strength on fool
lsh household tasks, slay him with bad
cooking, and otherwise give him bit
or-miss home life, she is deliberately
pulling him down into obscurity.
If she builds him up with proper
foods, sends him out cheered and rest
ed and restored, with faith in himself
and in her, she is pushing him straight
on to success.

She spends nearly all her time abroad.

living apart"

Oil RubhinQ.

Clothing exposes us to great dan
gers. We wear too many clothes.
We dress too warmly. so the skin be-
comes relaxed, and loses the power to
take care of itself. and this is the rea-
son oil rubbing is necessary. The
simple removal of thin layer of oil
by hot bath may be sufficient to
cause man TO take cold. so this rlust
be replaced by special oiling. or
some other treatment. in cold wealth
er.
People who are very susceptible to
cold, should be rubbed with oil after
each bath. Oil rubbing is especially
needed in cases ir which the skin is
dry, through deficient activity of the
oil glands of the skin. Great care.
however, should be taken to avoid tCo
vigorous rubbing in the application of
the oil. as sweating is very easily pro-
duced. to the disadvantage of the pa
t!ent. In the treatment of infants and
children, marked and most favor
able effect upon nutrition is produced
by oil rubbing. Application Of oil
after cold baths encourages reaction.
In most cases of chronic dyspepsia
when accompanied by emaciation, in
diabetes. and in most cases in which
malnutrition with dryness of the skin
Is prominent feature, oil rubbing IL
a valuable curative agency.

Frequency Of Tuberculosis.

From the Massachusetts, Medical
Journal we abstract the following: At
the second annual American Congress
on tuberculosis held in New York in
1902, DR.. Pryor stated that $4,000 per-
sons die annually in the State of New
York of this disease. One-sixth of all
the deaths in the world are due to this
one disease. Statistics show that in
France 100000 die every year of this
disease; in Germany, 100000; in the
United States. 100000: in Paris. H.
900; in London, $4,000; New York
City. 5000.
OF deaths between the ages Of If
teen and forty, tuberculosis claims one
third; between fifteen and thirty-ive,
one-half. The mortality from tubercu-
losis alone exceeds that of war. plague.
cholera. famine, yellow fever and
smallpox.

Horrors Of the Cocaine Habit.

The following Illustration of bad al.
vice In the lecture room is probably
rot an exceptional case. A professor
of materia medica lecturing on cocaine
called it one of the greatest Of all
stimulants and perfectly harmless
He cited his own experience of its
good effects, and advised the class to
test it personally in debility and ex-
haustion. OF class of thirty-two who
listened to this advice, five became
cocaine takers within two years. Ton
years later thirteen of this class were
drug and spirit takers. In all prob
ability, the use of cocaine was the
starting point of their addctions
Four died from the direct use of this
drug. Evidently more than half the
class had followed the advice of the
teacher and were wrecked. A few
years after. the professor became an
invalid and retired from the profess
sion, a victim Of his own counsel and
confidence in cocaine.

Two Trousand-Year Clock.

Richard Strut. son of Lord Ray
leigh, has invented a clock that will
run for two thousand years. The mo-
tive power is a small piece of gold
leaf. which is electrified by means of
very small quantity of radium salt.
The gold leaf bends away from the
metal substance and keeps moving un-
der this influence until it touches the
side of the containing vessel. At the
moment of contact it loses its cleo
trical charge and then springs back
again and is again electrified. and the
process is repeated. 1t is thought that
a thoroughly reliable clock could be
made with use of radium salt for ST.
900.

TYPE WRITER GIRLS
HAVE ACCOMPLISHED WONDERS.
Made Their Advent, With the Machine,
Less Than Thirty Years Ago.

Many of the readers of the New
York World must have noted recently
with surprise the account of the thlr-
tieth business anniversary of the first
Typewriter girl" So fully has the
typewriter occupied the field that 1t
seems almost incredible that i: was
still practically unknown when Hayes
was elected president, and that Eng
land did not take kindly to it until
dozen years ago.
To-day the typewriter is in every
continent and country. 1t is fitted for
fifty languages and a thousand dia-
lects. One of its best markets is in
what was Cetewayo's Zululand when
it was invented 1t lightens the labors
of Arabian scribes and Parsee money
lenders. A modification of its familiar
principle has been made to fit 1000
Geographic characters of China and
Japan.
The typewriter has been for thou
sands of women a broad avenue to
business success. AT the same time
that the wages Of the great army of
amanuenses have been forced down by
competition, the pay OF operators hold
ing court positions or places of trust
and responsibility has held its own or
risen. and many women who began
business as operators have become
secretaries and general managers OF
important enterprises. Typewriting
now vies with teaching as an occupa-
ton for educated and ambitious young
women.
Humorists have made the typewriter
girl the butt of many jokes, but she
could not occasionally marry her en-
ployer and turn upon him the tables
of dictation if she had not brought to
his Office grace and charm which
thirty years ago 1t would have lacked.
The vast volume Of business now done
in the commercial world would be al
most impossible without her and her
machine.-New York World.

Cost Of tuberculosis.

Dr. Harmon Biggs of New York
(American Medicine). after car, full
estimation. places the annual expense
OF tuberculosis to the people OF the
United States at $3.50. 900 10000. He
first calculates the loss to New York
city by putting value of $500 upon
each life at the average at which
deaths from tuberculosis occur. This
gives a total value of the lives lost
annually of $500, 10000.
But this is not all For at least nine
months prior to death these patients
cannot work, and the loss of service
at one dollar day, together with food,
nursing. medicines. attendance, Ste,
at one and onehalf dollars day, re-
suits in further loss of $4,000 900 90.
making yearly loss TO the p,un!cl-
pality of $4,000. 10000 For the whole
country the 10000 deaths from tuber.
culosis represent in the same way a
loss of $3.50 900 10000.
DR.. Biggs also states that the total
expenditure in the city Of New York
for the care of tuberculous patien > is
not at present over s500000 90 ear;
that is, it does not exceed two per .ant
Of the actual loss by death, etc. IF
this annual expenditure were doubled
or trebled it would mean a saving of
several thousand lives annually, to cay
nothing of the enormous saving in suf-
fering." Further evidence OF this is
afforded by the fact that in the last
twenty years the total number Of
deaths from tuberculosis in New York
has decreased instead of increasing,
although there has been an increase
of 10 per cent in the general popula-
ton.
