That the sure way Of building up

Both were weak and worn and dis

Pills and to-day both enjoy the best

Mr.. Duffey says: 'T was very weak
and almost past going. tried every
thing which people said was good but
got no benefit till tried Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. They helped me tn every
way and l am strong and weH now"
Mrs. Duffey says: II was SO bad

To Ward Off Disease.

Among the peasantry of Roxburgh
shire (Scotland) women who are nurs
ing babies wear round their necks
small cords of blue wool. These arc
never removed. day or night, until the
child is weaned. By taking this pre-
caution they imagine that they insure
good health both to themselves ant
their offspring during that critical pc
riod. The cords are handed dowr
from mother to daughter and are es
teemed in proportion to their an

COLORADO LEGISLATURE
Prise ners Should Work.

In the biennial report OF the state
Board of Pardons Secretary Hagar rec
ommends that prisoners. as far as pos
sible, shall be set at work to REIN
burse the state for the expense or their
maintenance.
There is no reason why prisoners
should not be supplied with material
and allowed to cut and make clothing
Tor themselves and for other penal and
charitable institutions. The same Is
true of shoes and other articles OF ap-
parel. This state spends thousands OF
dollars in supplies for the four penal
and four charitable Institutions which
might be saved. Mr.. Hagar would
like to see a broom and brush factory
started at which supplies for the state
Institutions could be manufactured.
The bill for supplies of this kind at the
state house amounts to great many
dollars each year, and It runs up in the
thousands when all the Institutions are
considered.
Another big item of expense to the
taxpayers is in school supplies. such
as desks. tables, rulers, blackboards,
erasers, etc. A great many OF these
things can be manufactured at the
prisons. Not far from Canon City the
state owns a fine piece of coal land
and Mr.. Hagar wants the Legislature
to let that be opened up by the pris-
oners. They can mine enough coal
there for every state institution. and
thus save many thousands of dollars
to the tax payers. AT the same time
nobody is going to be hurt because
these things are in lines where they do
not Interfere.

IN 1878 AND 1905.

The most encouraging showing
between the oldstime methods and
those being applied now in New
Orleans, is given in the Times
Democrat, as follows:
I've make the comparison with
1873 because the two outbreaks
are alike in nearly every essential
feature. They began about the
same time, they pre- vailed undis-
covered about the same time and
they pursued at the beginning
nearly the same course. On Aug.
10, 1878, there had died from yell
low lever IL New Orleans 1875 per-
sors; on Aug. 10. 1905, the deaths
were 1919. Up to that date the
fever Of this year had proved more
severe than in 1873. Tie follow
ing table shows it course before
and since the number OF deaths:

~ert~ that the splendid work

check. and absolutely pre-
vented a destructive epidemic
such as that Of 1873. With
the cooperation Of the citi-
zen> in fnmigating all
houses i'll which there are
mosquitoes, DR.. Whyte says
the spread Of the disease will
bt stopped.

FOCl AND SUB-FOCI.

These two words, used so otter
in connection with yellow fever
reports, have occasioned some
difficulty and confusion in the
minds Of some people. Some
have imagined, we have heard
| that "foci" and "subfoci" mean
some species of mosquito hitherto
unheard Of, but it is hard to be-
lieve this.
"Foci" pronounced with the c
soft a"u not with the k sound) is
only the plural OF focus, word,
the meaning of which most peo-
pie understand, and of course,
subfoci is the prral Of subfocus.
Now, the word "focus'' mas two
forms OF plural, namely, "focus"
and "foci"; the first being the
English form, and the second, the
Latin form the word itself being
Latin, meaning "hearth, any
place where fire is made"; hence,
tiguratively any central point.
The word "focus" was intro
duced into science by Kepler in
1904. 1T literally means a hearth,
round which all members of the
family gather, and takes the ac-
CURED meaning of the center, into
which certain activities are
gathered.
From this explanation no one
will have any difficulty in UNDER
standing the sense in which "foci''
and "subfoci" are used in yellow
fever reports. --Thibodaux Senti-
mel.
