is most perfectly conducted in tent. Tent life as carried out for the treatment of tuberculosis soon becomes thorough ly enjoyable Before beginning such a life patients almost invariably enter tain exaggerated ideas of its dangers and inconveniences. A short trial soopsdis pelS this fear and they are with, Idifi- culty induced to return to an indoor life. Experience teaches that the results are even better in winter than in summer, as breathing the cold air not only pro- vides more oxygen, but by reason of this fact promotes an appetite which is so very desirable. The tubercular patient when we'll fed and warmly clad feels the exhilarating effects of cold weather quite as much as the normal person, but will not avail himself of these valuable aids in the restoration of health except when under careful supervision. ,.
 The durability of tuberculosis is we'll established. Scepticism upon this sub ject must go down before ocular dem- onstration. Persons cured Sf tubercu- losis are no longer curiosities. They are found everywhere. and before long every community will have its fraternity of cured lungers.

This disease will never be stamped out by indirect measures alone. The out door cure for consumption is no longer a theory, but an established fact. It has been demonstrated that tuberculosis can be cured in any climate if patients would only accept the conditions which the treatment imposes. The most difii- cult feature of the treatment being the time required, which must extend over . period of several months. No method of treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis has given such universally satisfactory results as that adopted in sanitoria de- voted to the treatment of this disease.
 The profession of the state of Illinois, without regard to school of practice. have united in crusade to stamp out the disease in this state. The primary ob- ject of this movement is for the preven- tion of the disease but in order to ac- complish this, 1t is recognized that those

It is difficult at this time not to talk and think of Roosevelt, says a Wash ington correspondent. Seriously speak ing this picturesque man of the White house is an unknown quantity of tre- mendous possibilities both for good and evil, whose future may be equally as interesting to the democratic party as to his own. For little over three years this strenuous personality has held the central place in the public life of our country, as well as its loft fest station. There has scarcely been q day or month at least of his admin istration that has not been vivid with interest and fecked with the color of his own vigorous life. He enters now upon regime in which he is unfet- tered by the suggestion of accident. un- deterred by the apprehension of un- certainty, and by his own solemn pledge without the handicap of u per sonal ambition to influence his deliber- ations. He is in the chariot: he holds the reins :he will drive with boll hand, and it is safe@to say that his own party is more afFaid of him than the party that voted against him. It is really thrilling combination of conditions which surrounds the presi- dent of the United States. He is ap- parently man of destiny as well as a man of possibility. His courage is beyond any question in either party. His honesty is at least at par in both parties. His wisdom and discretion are somewhat in obscuration in the estimate of the ultra-conservatives of his own camp, and as to what he will do and how he will do it no man can speak with definiteness, although all classes are watching him with an al- iteration of anxiety and hope. One pre-eminent advantage that he enjoys is that of unquestioned leadership and dominance over the republican faction and over the machine. He drives, and at this time his army follows with precision in his wake.

FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 1905.

The Chicago Daily Review, the woman's paper, recently established in the western metropolis, sends d copy of the paper containing defense of it's policy in publishing only the pleasant happenings of life and the virtuous phases of human nature. The claim is made that the paper, which is extremely modest in size and typo graphy, is already success because it is truer mirror of life than any newspaper which gives up the bulk of it's space to crimes and scandals. In other words. it submits that the do- ings of the normal, decent people of the community are of more interest to a large percentage of good husbands and wives than the actions of the de- generate, freakish or unfortunate ele- ment. In support of this it Is shown that subscriptions to the paper from every part of the country come in 30 fast that they have to be held back to allay the suspicion of the postoffice people that the second class matter law is being violated. This sounds very nice, but it will be more convinc- ing to the average publisher, says an exchange, when the subscription re- newals are shown to be as voluminous as the original.

now suffering from the disease must be provided for, not alone with a view to curing them, but to protect the general public from the contagion that inev:ta- bly follows in the wake of the uncon- trolled tubercular patient.
 To this end the medical men of this state have encouraged the establish ment of a sanitorium at Ottawa, under the direction of Dr. J. w. Petit. of that city, who is chairman of the committee on tuberculosis for the Illinois State Medical society.
 The success thus far attained in the Ottawa tent colony has demonstrated be- yond all doubt, that tuberculosis can be cured in Illinois quite as easily and suc- cessfully as anywhere else.
 The tent colony was opened July 1 with two patients. The number now under treatment is 90. Nearly all cases admitted. who were not fin an advanced stage of the disease, have been material ly benefited and several already dis- charged as convalescent-

Origin of Thermometer.

According to Sir Samuel Wilkes, Fahrenheit constructed his thermometer from one made years before by Sir Isaac Newton. "In the transactions of the Royal Society for 1701 will be found the paper written by Sir Isaac Newton, who was at that time secretary to. the society,"" says Sir Samuel. He invented an instrument for measuring the degree of heat in fluids by taking a tube and filling it with linseed oil. On this he marked the freezing point as zero by putting the tube in ice. and in the same way he marked the point when placed in boiling water. The very awkward scale which we now use is evidently that of
 Newton, for, the decimal system not be- ing then in use. he took the number 12 to denote the heat of the body; this he found, and made it the starting point of his scale. both upward and downward"

When young NIf Croesus in Janu-
 ary last, made flying trip from New York to Washington, the members of his party were as matter of course well provided with wraps. All of them, including the ladies, wore fur coats
 fur caps or hoods, and fur gloves. The chauffeur. however, was clad in a complete suit of leather, which, with the headpiece, made him look some what like a mediaeval man in armor, and, because his feet could not be wrapped in such a way as to interfere with his control of the machine, he was provided with fur boots that came up over his shoes as high as the knees, says Bach, in the March Outing. Nevertheless, and although so volum- inously protected against the cold, the millionaire and his guests were becom- ingly attlred. It is no longer consider ed necessary that an autOmObilist shall get himself or herself up into the likeness of d bear or a burglar, and the. fur garments worn under such conditions by persons of taste and fashion are made of squirrel skins, Persian lamb, or other short-haired belts which can be cut to fit the figure. Such auto-coats are not made for or dinary folks like you and me. They cost from $500 to $1,O0O apiece, and some of them are lined with velvet, so as to be utilized on occasions as opera cloaks. Another thing that is nice about them is that they have capacious pockets, rendering huff unnecessary, when a lady is the wear CT; and it is worth mentioning that the one worn by pretty Mrs Croesus has a wide collar which may be turned up so as to cover her ears. Furthermore, she has hat of grey squirel-skin, like Highlander's cap, with scar let birds wing on the side of it, to lend a touch of color.

Congress has closed its activities for the season, and the market will now be free at least until October from disturbance in this quarter, says Banker. Clews. During the interval it is probable that public opinion will be so enlightened regarding the dangers of bill fixing railroad rates as to ef- fectualE kill that radical measure and bring in its place legislation that will deal more effectively and more justly with railroad abuses. In the haste re- sulting from political pandering to anti-capital ideas the interests of mil lions of persons who own these sec,lr- ities either directly or through their savings banks or life insurance poli- cies, are too often dyerlooKed.t Here is a class of people absolutely isnornnt of the injury threatened to them selves. and often too inert to use their proper influence or too easily led by political buncombe. The monetary out look continues satisfactory. The pe- riod is approaching-April 1-when the money market frequently shows some stringency and adversely affects stock market operations. Funds. how ever. are abundant, and no serious de- engagement from interior demands is yet fin sight. Gold exports have ceased for the present at least and Europe has been taking considerable amounts of our securities. Crop pros- poets must soon enter into our calcula- tions, and it is cheering to note that the winters wheat crop is in good condition. the heavy seasons snowfall having afforded ample protection. Within a month farming operations will be under full swing. and from the south already come reports of con- siderably reduced acreage of cotton and more land devoted to truck farm- ing, to corn and other products.

All that part of New Hampshire which lies north of Squam Lake and east of the lowlying agricultural lands along the Connecticut river is almost entirely forest covered, and for the most part will always be most valu- able under forest growth. It contains 32 per cent of the total area of the state. or nearly 100000 acres. In the winter of 1903 the state legislature appropriated S5,0OO for an examination and study of this region by the bureau of forestry. X full report on this work has been prepared, and will soon be published by the bureau. It includes description and estimate of the forest. by drainage basins. an ac- count of the characteristics of all im- portant timber trees. a careful discus sion of forest fires and paper pulp, and other state industries dependent upon the forest. The region studied consti- tutes two classes. which differ consid- erably both in general character and in forest growth. The southern of these is the White Mountain region. which contains approximately S12,OOO acres. It is very rough and rugged. with numerous broken mountain ranges intersected by deep, narrow valleys, with steep slopes. rapid streams. and all the conditions which invite soil erosion and permanent denudation of forest growth on the higher slopes, if careful numbering is not practiced and fire is not kept out In the extreme southern part of this region second growth white pine forms the leading commercial species. Before numbering began spruce was much more common than now. snd the effect of present methods is still further to decrease it's representation and to substitute for it the harlwoods. which gre usual Iy of much lower commercial vslue.

creases; nutrition improves; cough de- creases; night sweats cease; sleep im- proves; weight increases, temperature falls; tendency to take cold diminishes; respiration improves and the pulse rate is reduced. A marked improvement has been observed in all stages of the dis ease, but in early cases the results are most satisfactory. The patients for the most part are cheerful and contented with their surroundings. AS rule they accept uncomplainingly the primitive life which the treatment imposes. The greatest difficulty experienced is to hold some of them long enough to make the improvement permanent.
 The colony was continued throughout the winter. It was not expected that pa tients would live in tents during the se- were winter weather, therefore provision was made to house them during this period. Much to the surprise and satis- faction of those engaged in the work as we'll as the patients themselves they re- mained in their tents and were perfectly comfortable, notwithstanding that the temperature has been as low as 27 below zero. This is one of the most gratifying features of the demonstration for the reason that it not only proves that pa- tients can live in tents in this climate, but enables them to carry out the prin- ciples of treatment in the most scientific manner, viz: Life in the open air, which

It is now known, however. that the benefits of a change of location have been brought about solely by reason of the fact that most patients sent away from their homes who are benefited, eat more wholesome food, get rest from their ordi- nary occupations and live more out of doors. The modern idea of the treat ment of tuberculosis is, that given these same advantages in the neighborhood of home, doing away with the cost and in- conveniences of travel, a patient in the early stages of the disease will be just as greatly benefited.
 The anti-tubercular movement which is now sweeping over the civilized world, has already accomplished much good by creating an interest in subject which has hitherto been treated most indiffer- ently. A movement of this kind in order to be of lasting benefit to humanity must have a more substantial basis than the mere education of the public through written or spoken advises.
 The appeal for the erection of sana- toria should become the watchword of the present crusade against tuberculosis.
