Alcohol and Tuberculoals.

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
a greater mistake made. Alcohol has
never cured and never will cure
tuberculosis. It. will either prevent or
retard recovery. 1t 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 nourlshment
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"

The Russians were so much aston
ished by hearing the familiar word,
that they dropped their bayonets, and
took him prisoner instead of butcher
ing him.
An act of dishonesty was the cause
of Sapper Rozanoff's narrow escape.
On the morning of the battle round
"Kuropatkin's Eye" fiat, half-pound
tins of tobacco were given to each
non-commissioned officer for distribu-
ton among the men. But before it
was pOrtioned out, one tin disap-
peared. All the soldiers denied having
taken it.
When night closed the fighting, a
sapper, named Rozanoff. handed the
tin to the sergeant. In the top was a
narrow slit, which examination proved
to go through the tobacco, but not
through the bottom. Rozanoff's tunic
had a similar slit, just above the alb
domen. He admitted having stolen
the tobacco. He had hidden it next
his shirt. In the hand-to-hand fighting
a Japanese soldier had driven at him
fiercely with the bayonet.
The steel had gone clean through
the lid and tobacco, but the force en-
ployed was not sufficient to send it
through the bottom. Rozanoff's con-
science was struck by his miraculous
escape, and he had decided to confess
the theft and make restitution.

HEALTH CAMP FOR CONSERVATIVES ;
Worthy Enterprise Established in Southern Cal (
ifornia-So Arranged That Patients May 6
Be Self-Supporting. (


A New York paper publishes an ac-
count of a successful effort recently
made by Mr.. N. O. Nelson, in South
ern California, to provide for the poor
or classes. Mr.. Nelson has established
at lndio, in Southern California, what
he calls a health camp for consump-
tives. We quote the following de-
scription of this worthy enterprise
with the hope that it may encourage
others to do likewise; for certainly
no more b%eneficent work can be under
taken by anyone:
"The camp is located in a desert
valley, cut off from the ocean by
the mountains. There is no rain, no
fog, no clouds. The winter days are
all warm, the nights comparatively
cold.
THE camp was established in De
cember, 1902, to provide in part for
the large number of consumptives and
other invalids who go to Southern
California. Most of the invalids have
little means; they can not afford ex-
pensive sanitariums, and are not want
ed by hotels and boarding houses.
ITO meet the requirements of such
patients, Mr.. Nelson bought one hun
dred and twenty-five acres of land adj
joining the Indio depot. This tract
he has improved by sinking artesian
wells, and by putting most Of the land
under cultivation. in order to give con
valescents something to do.
Tents, with all necessary equip
ment for sleeping and taking meals,
have been set up. Land and water
are free to those who have their own
outfit. A small rental for tents is
made to those who can not pay, and
where necessary, board is given them.
All expenses need rot be more than
from $3.50 to $500 a week.
Work is provided for those who are
able to do it, so hat their care does
not become a burden on the camp.
"The camp is situated in the midst
of a sandy valley one hundred miles
long and three to ten miles wide.
The mountains on each side rise by
degrees to four thousand and five
thousand feet high. In some places in
the foothills there are springs and
vegetation.
I'm the valleys most of the land
has been taken up in the past few
years. The crops of melons and vege-
tables are early and bring high prices.
From 500 to 5000 an acre is an
ordinary yield. Alfalfa hay is cut ten
times a year, giving twelve to fifteen
tons an acre.
when the campers get well enough
to work, they buy or lease a few
acres. They car either buy the land
on the instalment plan, or lease it on
shares for such length of time as de-
sired"

The Cost Of LIvInn.

"The increased cost of living Is a
phase that has come into commercial
use these later years. 1t is well
enough to get at the meaning Of tho
expression. Plain living, that is a liv-
ing in which necessity is the limit,
costs no more than formerly. But
modern tendencies are toward better
living and that is where the expense
comes in.
The necessaries of life and the sub
stantial things of life. such as we all
in the early times were glad to get,
cost far less now than they cost then.
70 this statement there is scarcely an
exception. But they who complain
that the cost Of living has increased
would not be content now with what
we all had to content with then. Bet.
ter food, more variety, better cooking,
lodging furnished better, clothing in
better style and Of better goods, furni-
ture, equipage, travel and social ex-
pense once unknown have increased
the cost of living; but they who may
be willing to live in the old style sim
plicity, yet having enough to eat and
TO wear, a live now more cheaply
than at any former time. There can
be no question about it.-Leadville

That Tired Feelino.

The condition of lethargy produced
by excessive eating or habitual drunk
enness must be distinguished from ia
tigue due to work. Persons in this
condition often decline to exercise be-
cause they feel so tired" This state
of lassitude and %cLervation cannot be
overcome by rest. Carefully gradual
ed exercises and regulation of the di-
etary are the proper remedies. There
are many chronic invalids whose suf-
ferings and disability are wholly due
to this cause, and who may be read

and simple dietary combined with out

Food for Brain workers.

WV M D.
Mental work requires much less
food than does physical labor. Re
cent careful experiments which have
been made, show that men engaged
in active mental labor and a~bstaining
from muscular exertion, require prac-
tically no more food than men at rest.
This is a fact Of very great import
ance for students, ministers, and 9th
er professional men whose occupation
does not require any considerable
amount of effort, since the taking of
food in excess of that which is re-
CURED results in the filling of the
blood with poisons, and in conse-
quence crowding Of the tissues with
tissue wastes and poisonous matters
which interfere with all the bodily
functions. and especially with the
functions of the brain and nerves.

SOME SIMPLE DISHES.

Breakfast T0ast.-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 a 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.
coooanut 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 the prepared nut add
one cup of hot water, stirring and
much of the juice as possible, Drain
off the liquid and add a similar guam
tity Of hot water, and, after beating
again very thoroughly, strain through
a cloth or very fine sieve, pressing
out all the liquid possible. This may
be used at once as a substitute for
milk, to be eaten with rice or other
grains, OF TO prepare buildings or
sauces. 1t Is excellent served with
granose flakes or eaten with zwie-
back, If placed ON the ice for a few
hours, the cream viii rise to the top
and may be taken off, making a pure
%oocoanut butter.
Strawberry Egg-nog.--Heat the yolk
and white of one egg separately, and
to each add m teaspoonful of sugar.
To the yolk add one teaspoonful OF
lemon juice and two tablespoonfuls
of strawberry juice. Stir in the white.
leaving enough to serve as a meringue
for the top.

PredlsposltIon 70 TubereuIosls.


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 inuuiring
into the why, or are you trembling
lest it seize you? Are you trying to
dodge an i%nscrutable foe, or are you
studying to give intelligent battle?

by the almost ever present tubercle

Wireless T~eleeraphy in the Home.

William J.. Hammer, the electrical
engineer, has found a novel use for the
wireless telegraph. In his New York
home he is employing it to call the
servants. On his dlning-room table
is a dainty transmitter and pole con-
nected under the table. Down in the
kitchen is another pole, with trans
mitter and receiver, connected with
an electric bell. The transmitters are
no bigger than paper weights. When
Mr.. Hammer wants the maid he sends
a wireless current through the walls
of the room. The electrical waves
are caught by the pole in the kitchen
and the bell rags. A system of sig
mails permits him to call for anything
he desires.

pations where the worker is much ex-
posed to the inhalation of various
kinds of dust, have rendered them
particularly liable to consumption"
Let every M take courage and live
above tuberculosis. If you are already
suffering from it strive to rise above
it. Avoid alcoholic beverages, condi-
ments, pastries, tea and coffee. Live
out Of doors, provide fresh air for
your bed room, study the laws of your
body and return to the natural way
of living.

Water Publication.

A physician connected WITH the
United States Agricultural department
has called attention to the fact that
an extremely small quantity of sui
phate 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 hy-
gienic. 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
iltering through a Pasteur filter are
really the best methods. Filters are
cheap, and boiling is an easy and sin
pie process. The old-fashioned char
coal and gravel filters cannot be re-
he'd upon.

Remarkable Faithfulness Shown by
Austrian Servant.
In celebration of the emperor of
Austria's birthday a short time ago
twenty purses, each containing the
equivalent Of SIS, were offered for
competition among domestic servants
in respectable situations. The quail
ications of the winners showed some
truly remarkable periods of service.
One of the winners-a valet-had
been in the service of one man for
forty-seven years. A maid servant
of nearly so years of age had served
about thirty-nine years in an orphan
age, where she was still in active
employment when she received the
award. Another woman, aged "A
years, had entered the service of a
family as scullery maid and was still
with the same family. after forty
three years service. All of the win
ners had been in their situations more
than thirty years.

Husband lakes w!fe,s Name.

Permission to take his wife's maid
en- name as part Of his own has been
granted to Rev. George Franklin Hop
kins in the equity court, Washington.
The reason given is that bis wife, who
was we'll known in various fields of
work before her marriage, desires
to continue the use of her maiden
name. She was DR.. Salient Arm
strong, who achieved more or less
celebrity in the missionary field and
wrote a number of books. After her

her work hampered by the necessity
of appearing under a new name. Ac-
cordingly, she and her husband APP
