Movement to Suppress tuberculosis


Science has demonstrated beyond
question that pulmonary tuberculosis
or consumption of the lungs is both a
preventable and a durable disease.
This disease is produced by germs
which find their way into the body
through abrasions of the skin. through
the mucous membrane of the mouth
or the intcstineS and through the
lungs. The germs of the disease are
found in the sputum of persons suf
fering from tuberculosis. The germs
are also found in the flesh and milk of
animals suffering from the disease.
The germs are found nearly every
where. These germs cannot live in
the tissues of thoroughly healthy
person, as the cells of the body are
capable of destroying the germs. but
when the body is weakened by indi-
gestion, by the habits of breathing
foul or bad air, by anything which i'm
pairs the health, the tissues lose their
power to destroy germs so that when
they enter the body they find lodge
ment, grow and develop and tubercu-
losis of the lungs, bowels or of some
other part is the result.
Statistics show that at least 10000
persons die oil this disease in this
| country annually. Four or five times
that number Sf persons are sick all
the time with this disease. Tubercu.
losis kills more than any other NAL
| ady. Experience has shown that the
| disease is not incurable, as has been
generally supposed, but is very cur
able malady if taken in time, and if
the right treatment is applied. Not
B less than one hundred thousand lives
could be saved every year by the ap.
plication of proper means for prevent.
ing and curing this terrible disease.

DEATH OF MRS. McDERMOTT.
After Months Of Suffering the Grim
Reaper Releases Her.

DIED-This, Friday morning at
O'Clock at her home IN this city,
Sadie, beloved wife of Peter J. Nc
Dermott, aged Al years.
No sadder death has taken place
in Montpelier in recent years than
that of Mrs. McDermott. Since
1900 she has been more or less of an
Invalid, and during most if not all
the time. been under physicians
care. Last September she had the
misfortune to meet with a severe
fall, by which thigh bone was
broken. Since then she has been
confined to her bed. Added to this.
a few days ago she was attacked
with lagrlppe, which, last night,
developed into pneumonia. In her
weakened physical state, she was
unable to withstand this dreaded
disease. and a few hours later her
spirit passed over the Great Divide.
The deceased leaves husband
and six children, to whom her death
comes as shock that they are we'll
nigh unable to bear. For months
they, assisted by other relatives and
friends, have patiently and devotedly
mlnistered to her wants, and with
loving hands have sought in every
way to relieve her of the bodily
pain which she was called on to en-
dure, all the while hoping that she
might be spared to those who need
ed her love and counsel.
No truer example of womanhood
has ever trod the path of life than
Mrs. McDemnott. She was a de-
voted and affeetlonate wife and
mother, generous and true friend,
and that she should be thus reward
ed by years of constant suffering,
ls one of the enigmas of life.
Besides the husband and children
she also leaves mother and father,
two brothers, Thomas and Henry
Burke, and two sisters, Mrs. Guyon
of this city, and Mrs. Beatty of
Nebraska.
The deceased was member of
the Episcopal church, and also
member of the Ladies of the Mac
cabees, which order, in connection
with the Odd Fellows and b. of L.
E. will have charge of the funeral
arrangements. which will take place
at O'Clock Sunday morning from
the Episcopal church.

HAD A ROYAL TIME.
Knights Of Pythias Entertained in
Honor Of the And Anniver-
sary Of the Order.

The forty second anniversary Of
the founding of the order of Knl ghts
of Pythias will long be fondly re-
membered by those who attended
the entertainment given in honor of
that event by ldanha lodge No.
last Tue sday night. Members of
the order and their wives or lady
friends, to the number of nearly 100,
participated in the festivities of the
evening. Progressive high five was
the first number on the program,
and about so lnduIged in the contest
for the prizes with considerable
spirit. AT the close of the games II
comparison of the tally cards showed
that Fred Rose was entitled to the
gents first prize, handsome stag
horn backed comb and brush. The
lady's prlze, pretty cut glass dish,
went to Mrs. Frances Smeath. The
BOBBY prizes were captured by G. J.
Strawn and Mrs. JOS. Fuller.
The banquet, which folio we'd,
was held In the opera house. The
large table was arranged in the form
of triangle and comfortably ac.
commodated all the guests. The
banquet was served by Mr. and Mrs.
Dan Beard and the menu included
cold turkey, scalloped chicken, slaw,
salads, coffee, cake and fruit: The
service was excellent and Mr.. and
Mrs. Beard received many congrat-
ulatlons for the splendid repast
which they had provided.
The next on the program was a
short musical and literary program,
which included selections by the
Montpelier orchestra, vocal duet by
Mrs. L. w. Jones and Miss Thomas
recitation by Mrs. C. e. Reese.
violin duet by Masters Lawrence
Malone and Allan Douglas. vocal
solo by Miss Hull and violin sol, q
by Chas. Roller and Robt. Birch
Although it was after l O'Clock
when the musical program was com
pleted, nearly everyone signified a
desire to trip the light fantastic.
and it was about 2:3O a. m. when

away when the happy but tired

THE HORN OF PLENTY

1T is perhaps not to much to say that
South Dakota is now maturing the rich
est crop ever grown on South Dakota
soil. We have nyears past had as good
wheat crops, as good barley, and oats,
and rye, as promising an outlook for
corn, butitis doubtful if ever before the
crops have been uniformlyso good over
the whole state IS now. From Aberdeen
to Yankton, and from Dead wood to
Sioux Falls the same story of riches
comes to the Argus Leader. Oats and
wheat are not yet in the stack, both of
these crops are now beyond the danger
point, and nothing but a statewide dis
aster Of wind and hail, or an unpreced
ented season Of wetness can prevent its
gardening.

keta has grown grand crops and has
produced a percap;sa of new wealth ex
