HOW TO AVOID PNEUMONIA
Approach of the Season When
 Disease Is Prevalent
Chicago Tribune

A sudden and startling increase both in this city and in New York of deaths from pneumonia and the appropriation in the latter city of $lO.OOO for the study of the disease drew attention to the approach of the season when pneu- mouia is most prevalent.
 Pneumonia is the despair ofthe med ical profession. While the death rate from many other diseases has been re- duced, that of pneumonia has steadily increased. While in 1860 pneumonia claimed four out of every 10000 Chica- goans and consumption twenty-five, in 1900 twenty lives were lost to pneumo- nia for every fifteen to consumption.
 Not only is there no specific for pneu- monia. but many people are to an eX- tent in the incipient stages of the dis ease without knowing it. This is due to the fact that the bacterium of pneu- monia exists so commonlyin the saliva of many healthy persons that it is con- stdered "almost normal inhabitant Of the upper part of the digestive tract. '
 But there are certain rules of living which will reduce ones liability to the disease. From the bulletins of the health department and from other au- thoritative sources the following rules may be set down for obServance:
 Do not ovcrheat lhe house. Most people habimally dwell in apartments the temperature of which is from 3 to 10 degrees too high.
 Wear light underwear and heavy overcoats, rather than heavy under wear and light ovcrcoats.
 Avoid mingling with crowds when extremely tired or when food has not been taken for longer interval than usual. Avoid becoming chilled when overtircd.
 Admit into all rooms where you live and work plenty of sunshine and fresh air.
 Keep warm when indoors even if it is necessary to build fires in seasons when it is unusual to do so, Avoid in- door chill and dampness as much as possible. For this reason be careful to remove the chill before moving into apartments freshly papered or calcim- ined.
 Be careful during variable weather Where there is continual cold or con- stant warmth the disease is little known.
 If you have an attack of the grippe be unusually careful about your diet and about exposing yourself to the weather. Neglected colds develop in to pneumonia with startling rapidity.
 Take plenty of exercise in the sun light and fresh air. As good nursing is practically the only cure for pneu- monia, so good living is practically the only preventive.

Ice Palace Did NOt Pay

.'Your ice palace of Montreal is a thing of the past iSut it?" said New York man to a Canadian.
 .Ye,, thank fortune, said the other.
 "I often went to see your ice palace in the winter. It was a rare and a beautiful sight. It must have paid, too for it attracted visitors from all part, of the United States. Why then wa, tt given up?"
 Because it created abroad a false impression of Canada. said the Cana dian. "lt created over there the idea that Canada was bleak, cold place--a land of snow and ice a kind of Green land OF Labrador
 "Pooplc sent Co their friends abroad illustrated post cards and large photo- graphs of the ice palace and the ice carnival year after year. Hence, abroad. they got to aSsociating ice and Canada together. The two words became almost synonymous.
 And nobody would emigrate Cana da-wards
 Cmada?, they would say. ley Canada? Oh, no. Too cold.
 Our immigration figures fell of to a deplorable degree on account Of the false impression of our climate that the ice palace gave To England and France and Germany.
 "Now Canada lives on immigration. She wants all the immigrants she can get. And because the ice palace lost her thousands of immigrants yearly, she wisely did away with it."

SMASHES SALOON WINDOWS
Pat Carroll Resents Ejectment by
 Owner and Goes to Jail

Pat Carroll was cjccted from Wag- ner's saloon Tuesday night for bad conduct, and in order to signify his dis approval proceeded to stick his fists through all the plate glass in the front of the room, cutting his right hand. Then he started to make a home run but was ovcrtaken along about third base and escorted to a bench in the jail. He was fined S5O by Judge IIildrclh next morning, and was unable to ante, so he will study the weather changes from behind the bars for some time.
 Carroll bought some elixir at the bar and then rendered small check in payment. which was refused by Mir. Wagner because td,d not look good 10 him. Carroll walked over by the stove and began to jingle money in his pockets. He wa, requested to produce the coin. and forcibly remarked that he would no pay except with the check. Nr. Wagner gathered loose fold of the base of Parrick's trousers in one hand and firmly grippcd his coat collar with the other, and with more haste than care rushed the Unwelcome customer through the door,
 Then it was that Patrick crew in- dignaut and wallopcd the glass front. Wagner came out and Pat ran to the rear and fell into a hole. Wagner caught him but he pulled loose and ran again. with Wagner and his bartender after him, until he reached the eNca- vation for the Episcopal church. Into thi, he fell, but the sacred pit failed to prove sanctuary,and he was captured.
 Thus it is that P. Carroll is now do- ing $50 worth of time in jail, and the railroad is short one brakeman.

Automobiles to Replace the Camel.

From the Motor World.
As the result of extensive experiment In
the use of anNautomobile on the desert,
novel car has just been completed for the
use of the sirdar of Egypt, who will use 1t
on the vast sandy stretches of the Soudan.
The motive power consists of a twenty
horsepower three-eylinder vertical engine
with a Renold silent chain transmission.
The wheels are entirely inclosed by light
metal side plates, leaving nothing but the
broad, solid rubber tires exposed. and 1t
is thought that the latter VII remove the
difficulty of getting over the surface of
loose. shifting sand without becoming I'M
bedded so deeply as TO impede progress. To
prevent the fine grit working into any part
OF the mechanism the entire underbody Is
protected by an ingeniously devised apron.
Either kerosene or gasoline suits the en-
CINE equally well. and, owing to the char
acter of the country to be traversed, pro-
vision has specially been made for three
days supply of cooling and drinking water,
es well as fuel. The change speed gear
gives a range of from three to twenty miles
an hour. The car will IN addition haul a
two-wheel trailer. very similar 10 a gun car

Our good friend with 81, 000,O00 a year can
not eat much more or better food or
drink much more or better drinks than
we can. If he does he will be sorry. He
can have more places to live I'm and enor-
mously more and handsomer apparatus Of
living, but he can't live in more than enc
place at once, and too much apparatus Is
a bother. He can make himself comfort
able and live healthful. So can we. He
can have all the leisure he wants, can go
where he likes and stay as long as he
will He has the better of US there. We
have the better OF him in having the daily
excitement and discipline of making a l.v
ing We may beat him in discipline too.
We are apt to get more than he does
the salutary discipline of steady work. OF
self denial, of effort. That Is enormously
valuable to soul, body and mind. He can't
buy ii. We get 1t thrown in with our
daily bread. We have rather better chances
than he of rearing our children well. We
are as likely as he TO have good friends
worth having and TO find pleasure IN them.
