Slow TRAVELLING.

A traveller in Mexico says he encoun-
tered some Of the slowest trains he
ever rode on, during one or two side
trips in the Mexican Republic. On one
occasion, he says, the train stopped at
every house and when it came to a
double house it stopped twice. "They
made so many stops" says Mr.,
Rothert, that finally | asked the con-
ductor when he mad slowed down for
the hundred and thirtieth time, what
was the matter now? He said there
Deming graphic. (Deming, N.M.) 1903-1948, 1905-02-10

are some cattle on the track" We
ran little ways farther and made an
other stop. / said whats the matter
now?" He replied, 1--WE have caught
up with those cattle again" We made
pretty good time for about two miles.
One old COW got her tail caught in the
cow-catcher and ran of down the track
with the train. The cattle bothered us
80 much they had to take the cow
catcher off and put It on the hind end
Of the train to keep the cattle from
jumping on the coach. A lady handed
the conductor two tickets, one whole
ticket and one half ticket He said,
who is the half-ticket for?" She
replied, "For my boy" The conduc-
tor answered, "He is not boy, he is a
man." She replied, "He was boy
under twelve when we started" They
stopped so often, continued Mr.. Roth
ert as he looked around to see If any
body but the guileless reporter was
listening, that one of the passengers
tried to commit suicide. He ran ahead
for half mile and laid down on the
track but he starved before the train
got there. The next time the tain
stopped, some one asked the conduc-
tor what was wrong and he replied that
COW had kicked the fireman in the
jaw. But lived through it all and
think | am now prepared to stand a
trip into the mountains astride burro
after that experience.

The Practical ioKar.

The practical joker, the person who
laughs at che discontinue of others,
who gets fun out Of his neighbours pre-
dicament, who lays awake nights plan
ming some piece Of deviltry that will
cause sorrow or at least chagrin, al
ways has been with us, is now and
probably always viii be.
Last week a girl in Scranton squib
factory threw a squib into a stove, just
to scare her companions. Result, six
dead, as many more seriously hurt, and
factory wrecked. II was In Pennsyl-
v MIA also that a small boy lighted the
the escaping gas from the exhaust pipe
of natural gas line, to furnish light
for a wedding serenade. Result, one
life lost and valuable property destroy
ed.
These are only two of the many cases
taken at random from the news col
umns. Neither of the young people in
tended harm. The girl wanted to see
her companions jump when the squib
exploded. The boy purpOsed to sur.
prise the serenaders by furnishing an
impromptu bonfire. They were sim
ply needless. If everyone who is about
to play practical joke would stop to
think about It, to study out the posi-
BILE consequences, there would be few
err jokes of this sort perpetrated. 1t
is ludcrous to see a man who is COM
fortably seated in a chair suddenly find
himself sprawling on the floor, through
the dexterity Of the practical joker,
but the odds are that the victims spine
has been injured and that the effects
of his fall will cling to him through
life. Play the same thing on the prac-
teal joker, and he would be furious.
Strange as it may seem, the practical
joker is the most ill-pqtured target on
earth. He do,sn't) his own medi-
cine.
There is innocent fun that hurts no
one and causes no damage, but it is
not strenuous enough to suit some peo-
pie. They want to break leg or burn
buildings. Such as these are criminal
in instinct and should be placed under
restraint. The practical joker ought
not to be tolerated in any community.

TYPHOID GERMS.

The microscope shows that in the blood
ofevery person suffering from typhoid the
little germs can be found as shown above.
They are supposed to get into the water or
milk we drink. The germs multiply so
that one germ is capable of producing
about one hundred triilien germs in TWEEN.
ty.four hours. That is why il they ever
get into the water supply OF a town they
multiply so fast that nearly everybody
drinking tile water comes down with the
disease. There are exceptions, however,
and they are the persons whose health is
perfect, whose blood is pure, and liver
active. When the germs get into healthy
body they are thrown Off with the o9her
poisons. Recent Chicago statistics show
that one eighth Of all the deaths in the
past two years in that city have resulted
from pneumonia.
The best advice we can give is TO put the
body into perfectly sound, healthy condi.
ton. Be assured that you have rich, red
blood and an active liver

The Defeat of Consumption.

Ten years ago sanitarium for the
treatment of consumption was an in
stituton standing almost alone. Five
years ago sanitariums of this class were
rare. Today one can scarce pick up n
newspaper anywhere in the United
States without finding news of the
establishment of some such institution,
some new plan for the treatment of
the white plague, based on more or
less national lines. Much existing
plans are Informed, many are
based on wild theories and impractical
plans but the agitation itself is hope
full. 1t means simply, that the people
of the United States are at last awake
to the stern need IF the most bitter
war against consumption. The agta-
ton, the careful study. the painstaking
experiment will result in the discovery
of the one safe treatment, the one sure
way to fight the disease. The victims
Of consumption may number more this
year than before, as for several years
past. 1t has taken just this enormous
spread of the disease to shake the pee :
pie awake to the necessity Of fighting.
The end is almost in sight journal.
