Help for the Poor consumptlve.

The following appeal to philanthro.
pists, In the fifth revised edition of
the Illinois State Board Of Health's
circular on the Causes and Prevention
Of tuberculosis, has attracted wide
attention:
Simple as may seem the directions
to the sufferer from consumption:
plain as may be the course by which
he may find health and may be given
a new lease of life, 1t must be remem-
bered that there are, among the five
million people of the great state of
Illinois, hundreds Of sufferers who
are unable to avail themselves of
even these simple means of cure.
Fresh air. sunlight, proper methods of
living and reasonable rest are not
available to the man who struggles
night and day for the mere necessar-
les of life. The hard-worked woman
with helpless children depending upon
her must labor in the dark and dingy
sweatshop and live in the stuffy tene-
ment, although she may know that in
such surroundings consumption is
rapidly placing the mark of death
upon her. The poor consumptive
must live.
NO better opportunity for practi-
cal charity ever existed; no greater
privilege was ever offered than is
held out to him who would provide
the means for the poor consumptive
to regain his health and face the bat
tie for life and for existence on an
equal footing with his fellows. Those
who are giving fortunes for the ad-
vancement Of education, of science. of
art and even of religion. will do well
to pause and consider IL saving the
life OF our fellow man and restoring
him to the helpless ones dependent
upon him is not a nobler and better
thing than the elevation OF culture to
It's highest plane or the carrying of
learning to the natives of foreign
shores"

BEES IN THE HOME.

Fad Has Struck Country House Own
ers-The Honeycomb.
Agriculture is the latest fad of the
London smart set. OF course, bee
hives form part of the outfit Of all
country homes, but now it is consid
cred quite smart to have bee hives in
the drawing room, and samples of the
skill of the exhibitor as a bee-raiseI

stance, keeps two hives in the music
room. These are of more than usual
size and are richly ornamented upon
the outside. A large glass window
permits the visitor to sit and watch
the various processes in comfort and
there is always in progress the forma.
ton of some curious model of wax for
which frame has been especially
constructed. Boats, bicycles, automo
blles and similar objects are roughly
modelled in honeycomb, and when com.
pleted they are removed from the
hive and carefully drained of the
honey. the empty cells being mounted
Tor the collection. AS the presence
OF the bees flying about the place
would cause apprehension, the bees
are not permitted to enter the room,
but are allowed access to the garden
through pipe piercing the wall of
the chamber. The fad Is of general
adoption and the wax models have
served as centerpieces at some Of
the most important dinners OF the
present season.

The Dress Of Women.

The old Greeks had a proyerb e1
pressing their belief that the mothe
should be strong and vigorous in OF
der that the sons might be brave an,
mighty in battle; accordingly, in tn,
palmiest days of Greece, laws existed
which required every woman to en-
gage in the practise of gymnastics anC

quirements of hygienic laws, not tina

in the arena or to fight battles In de
Tense of her country. but that hel
sons might be victorious in all the
conflicts Of life, in peace as well as In
war. To be the mother of sons who
were noted for strength, vigor and en-
durance was the highest honor any
Grecian woman could enjoy.
Do all mothers think of these things
when they treat their bodies very
much as they do mass OF dough in
making bread, moldlng 1t into such
shape as may happen to suit the fancy
of the reigning queen of fashion, with.
out considering that the artificial
shape produced may be in the highest
degree incompatible with the physical
health and conduce to no small extent
to the constitutional feebleness which
their unborn sons and daughters must
hereafter endure?
Babies are simply buds; hence they
must share the character of the par.
ent stock. A weak-waisted mother
transmits to her son or daughter a
predisposition to kindred feebleness
OF structure. The mother whose liver
and stomach are so carried out Of
place that they cannot perform their
functions In proper manner, If the
does not actually transmit to her sons
and daughters displacement of the
stomach and liver. gives to them a
predisposition to deformities of this
sort.
That large responsibility rests
upon women because of their neglect
to care for their bodies, and because
of the homage they pay to fashion.
cannot be doubted. The woman who
starts out In good earnest to learn to
live one hundred years, and who de-
sires that her sons and daughters
shall follow her in such laudable I'M
derhking, win certainly give this mat.
ter the careful consideration which
will lead her to take her stand with
thousands OF other intelligent women

right to accept what civilization has

freedom to breathe and move without

! CARE OF THE BODY /
8 How to Acquire and Retain the Priceless Posses
sion of Good Health
Es~sses1
MIX as a Source Of Infection.

The Anti-Tuberculosis Society oil
Battle Creek, Mich, gave an interest
ing exhibition recently at the Santa
rum In that city. The state inspector
of milk, assisted by the local health
officer and the superintendent of the
sanitarium at Battle Creek, Mich, has
| been investigating the condition OF
the dairles that supply milk to the
| people OF the city, and the results of
the investigation, as shown by stereop-
| ucon views, afforded an object lesson
that must certainly be effective.
Photographs were taken of the barns
and stables where cows are kept, and
or the barnyards, and pictures OF these
were thrown on the screen. The farm
ers around Battle Creek are certainly
as enterprising as those in any other
section OF the country, and conditions
there may be taken as fair average;
yet the dairy inspector for this dis
trict stated that there were but few
dairies where the conditions were
strictly sanitary and proper, while
there were many which were decided
ly the reverse. Views were then
shown upon the screen, from photo
graphs recently taken of dairy barns
and yards. some showing extremely
bad conditions--stables full of filth
and barnyards where cows stood In
ponds Of manure water which could
not fail to contaminate their drinking
water supply. Dirty cows can give
only dirty milk, and such milk is I'M
ft for human food. Other pictures
showed proper cooling facilities where
the milk was cooled as soon as 1t was
taken from the COW, and without con-
Examination from stable odors, and
where the cows had clean, light and
well ventilated stables. Photographs
were also shown of various cultures"
as affected by diseased milk, as they
appeared under the microscope. First,
photograph of culture" from pure
milk was thrown on the screen. 1t
showed merely a blank space. Then
samples of the growths in the ordinary
milk were exhibited, and all manner
OF germ colonies were revealed-ty-
phoid. diphtherla, tuberculosis and
others. II is safe to say that few
who saw the exhibition will hence
forth use milk without knowing def
nitely the conditions under which it
was produced. 1t was encouraging,
however, to know that the dairymen
show commendable alacrity to i'm
prove conditions.
No human being could live where
