Alcohol and Tuberculosis.

DR.. S. A. Knopf, the eminent New
York physician who has given a great
deal of attention to the subject of
tuberculosis, took occasion not long
since in a scientific paper to condemn
the popular notion that alcohol is a
remedy for consumption. He says:
There is an idea that alcohol is a
remedy or even a specific remedy for
consumption. There has never been
greater mistake made. Alcohol has
never cured and never will cure
tuberculosis. 1t will either prevent or
retard recovery. It is like a two
edged weapon; on one side it poi
sons the system, and on the other side
it ruins the stomach and thus prevents
this organ from properly digesting the
necessary food. Truly pathetic are
the results of this erroneous doctrine
in the families of the poor, where, in
stead Of procuring good nourishment
for the invalid, liquor has been bought
in far too large quantities, so that
often there was not enough money left
for food for the sufferer nor for the
other members of the family"

Predisposition to tuberculosis.

The abnormal fear OF tuberculosis
which haunts so many minds is bred
Of ignorance. The awful results Of
the white terror" have impressed
themselves upon all, but as with the
aborigine, when he first encountered
the gun-bearing explorer, the reason
why is hidden. The native heard the
gun speak and saw his brother fall
The sudden death terrified him. He
did not stop to inquire the cause. He
fed in abject fear.
To-day the ravages OF tuberculosis
are stupendous. Are you inquiring
into the why, or are you trembling
lest it seize you? Are you trying to
dodge an inscrutable foe, or are you
studying to give intelligent battle?
The tenement dweller says, 81 can not
escape the plague, | will await my
turn" The son or brother of con-
sumptive says: ut is in the family,
must suffer the same DEATH" The
weakened victim of intemperance or
neglect of vital laws says: "My con-
stitution is wrecked--I am no match
for this relentless foe"
DR.. Knopf asks and answers the
following pertinent query: "Who are
the individuals who must be particu-
larly careful so as not to be attacked
by the almost ever present tubercle
bacillus.
"There are four classes: First, those
who have a hereditary predisposition
to consumption; secondly, those who
have weakened their system and thus
predisposed themselves to consump-
ton by the Incorporate use Of alco-
holic beverages, by dissipated life,
by excuses of all kinds, ETC.; thirdly,
those whose constitution has been
weakened through disease; fourthly.
those whose occupations, trades or
professions, such as printing, hat max
ing, tailoring, weaving, and all occu

Water Purific alton.

A physician connected with the
United States Agricultural department
has called attention TO the fact that
an extremely small quantity OF sui
pnate OF copper will prevent the
growth of algae in lakes, ponds and
storage reservoirs, and will destroy
typhoid and cholera germs. The ques-
ton at once arises whether this meth
Cd can be considered thoroughly n.y.
gjenic. The probability is that the
small amount of copper thus en-
ployed would be neutralized by COM
bining with vegetable substances SO
that the water will be left practically
pure; nevertheless, the addition OF
chemical substances to water cannot
be considered the most desirable
method of publication. Boiling and
filtering through a Pasteur filter are
really the best methods. Filters are
cheap, and boiling is an easy and sim
pie process. The old-fashioned char.
coal and gravel filters cannot be re-
lied upon.

asked.
"I did that
"'Did you know it is against the

Diversified FARMING.

Gueydan, La: There was a large
gathering of the farmers Of the Guey,
dan district, together with their wives
and families, here last week, to listen
to an address on rice growing, diver.
sifed farming and poultry raising, by
Capt. John P. Slattery, special agent
Of the United States Department OF
Agriculture, who had been detailed BY
the government to cover the rice belt
IN the interest Of the national depart
ment and for the benefit OF the farm
ers. Capt. Slattery gave most inter
esting talk on the subject of Organlza
lion. He spoke at length on the lmpor
lance of systematic drainage, the prop
er preparation Of the soil for seeding
the constant cultivation Of all crops
that were planted, and the best meth
DDS of harvesting, so that the qua.lty
might be up to The highest standard
He strongly advised the growing OF Tor
age crops, the raising Of all the pro
duce necessary for consumption on th(
farm, the profit accruing to the farmer
from hogs and poultry, and many 9th
er subjects OF practical interest to the
farmer and his family.

JUDGE HAD TO FOLLOW.
Listened to Chauncey, But Would
WILLINGLY Have Quit.

Willingly Have Quit.
One of the first cases which Chaun-
cey Depew had after being admitted
to the bar was a civil suit involving
a somewhat complicated question Of
Inheritance.
In no way daunted young Chaun-
cey tackled it, looked up authorities
all the way back to Julius Caesar
and prepared an argument of a few
hundred pages which seemed to him
more than unanswerable. His only
fear was that it might be beyond the
comprehension Of the court.
When the time came the young man
rose and plunged in boldly. The judge
seemed interested, and Chauncey took
further courage. But at the end of
an hour and a half, in the midst Of
the most intricate part of his plea,
he was panied to see what he thought
was a lack of attention on the part Of
the court. 1t was just as he had ex-
pected; the judge was unable to ap-
preciate the nice points OF his argu-
ment.
He paused, hesitated and then said:
"Your honor, l beg pardon, but do you
follow me-"
81 have so far" answered the judge,
shifting about in his chair; "but I'll
say frankly that if I thought l could
find my way back I'd quit right here. y

SOME SIMPLE DISHES.

Breakfast Toast.-Cut rather thin
slices of bread into two or three
pieces. Put these into the oven and
let them bake very slowly for two or
three hours, or until of golden color
and crisp throughout. This is an ex.
cellent substitute for breads and much
more wholesome. 1t IS delicious served
with cocoanut or dairy cream or but
ter.
cocoanut Cream.-Cut fresh cocoa
nut into thin slices and grind the nut
very fine in a chopper or some strong
hand mill. If nothing of this sort is
available, the cOcoanut may be grated.
To each cup of theprepared nut add
one cup of hot water, stirring and
beating with spoon to extract as
much of the juice. as possible. Drain
off the liquid and add similar guam
tity of hot water; and, after beating
asain very thoroughly, strain through
a cloth or very fine sieve, pressing
out all the LIQUID possible. This may
be used at once as substitute for
milk, to be eaten with rice or ether
grains, Or to prepare puddings or
sauces. It is excellent served with
granose< flakes or eaten with zwie-
back. Ifsplaced on the ice for a few
hoursl the cream will rise to the top
and may. be taken off, making a pure
cocoanut butter.
Strawberry Ess-noe.-Beat the yolk
and wtiteyof one egg separately, and
to each add one teaspoonful of sugar.
To the yolk add one teaspoonfrl Of
lemon Juice and two tab1espoonfuls
of strawberry juice. Stir in the white,
leaving. enough to serve as meringue
for the top. &
