Of the department of agriculture on
the charges made against Dr. George

Moore or justifies the institution OF

Moore is the scientist who discovered

The democratic State convention was
held in Baltimore on Thursday of last
week, with Senator A. P. German in
supreme control. DR.. Gordon T. Akin
son, of Somerset county, was renomlnat-
ed for State Comptroller. The suffrage
amendment to the Constitution is made
the sole issue of the campaign, and except
for an Endorsement of the business admin
istration of Governor Warfeld, no other
issue was touched upon.
Senator German, in a brief address,
made one of his characteristic declara-
tions, which may mean much or little,
according to the Interpretation one cares
to place upon it. He declared that if the
amendment is carried and the negro
eliminated as political factor in Mary
land, he would agree to seek no further
place and would die happy man. If,
however, "a corrupt combination of dis
affected democrats, mugwumps, white
republicans and their negro allies" sue
ceeded in defeating the measure, he
asserted he would-sti fight on.

The Fresh Air Treatment.

A great deal is being said and written
these days about the "fresh air treat.
ment" for consumption, and it is all good.
Fresh air is good for many things, but
most of all it is good for people, sick or
well. Most folks do not get enough of it..
They live too much indoors. II people
spent more hours in the open, and were
keener to have fresh air in their offices
and houses. there would be much less
illness of all sorts, but especially, there
would be less consumption. Tuberculo-
sis is primarily disease of the house, and
it is most frequently contracted in those
houses where there is little fresh air and
light, and where consumptives have lived.
The germs of tuberculosis cannot live in
fresh air and sunlight. but may live :for
years in dark damp rooms. Every win
dow in every sleeping room should be
open at night, and every night. Some
observations recently made by H. Writ
Steele. Secretary of the Maryland Tuber.
culosis Association, disclosed the facts
that the death rate from consumption is
disproportionately high in certain com.
munities on the Eastern Shore, and that
the people of these same communities
are peculiarly domestic in their habits,
spending much time within doors, and
that they habitually sleep in rooms. the
windows of which are closed or opened
slightly aud the shutters closed. There
is no surer way to invite still higher
death rate.

The republican organs, much against
their desires, are again trying to account
for the present high tax rate. Their &C.
counts of this example of "frenzied f.
nance" do not correspond. The Wing
asserts the republican commissioners
found debt of $66, 600 when they assum
ed Office; the Appeal says it was $4,000;
the republican commissioners themselves
said it was Sac, 900 and levied for that
amount last year.
The present Board instead of using that
portion of the levy for the purpose for
which it was made, spent it for other
purposes, leaving the original debt of
$3.50 or $63. 900 or $4,000 still stand
ing and piled up additional thousands
upon it until it now reaches $4,000 or
more.
In addition to This they again raise the
levy this year, making it $I.2o. and now
make no pretensions that it is for the
purpose of wiping out the increased debt
caused by their Encouragement, but
allow it 10 be assumed that the increase
is for the purposes of meeting current ex-
penses and keeping the debt from increas-
ing too fast for even these .'frenzied
financiersn, to view with equanimity.

The question of substances in medicines
which has been agitating the minds of

Mothers need have no hesitancy in contin-
uing to give it to their little ones, as it con-
tains absolutely nothing injurious. This
remedy is not only perfectly safe to give
small children but is medicine of great
worth and merit. 1t has world wide
reputation for its cures of coughs, colds

it has not been done in recent years. It
is probable that the Navy Departments
code is one of the few of the American
government codes that has not gotten
into the hands of the other powers; at the
same time it is one which it is impossible
to decipher without the key. 1t is not
only code, but it is written on three
different sheets of paper and they have to

A most positive and polite declination
has come to Commissioner Shonts from
Senator Morgan, whom he invited to
join the board of consulting engineers on
their coming trip to Panama. Senator
Morgan says in a part of his letter that
while he opposed the selection of Panama
as point at which to build the canal, he
has since then done everything in his
power to uphold the hands of the govern
ment and aid in the work He does not
think, however, that anything will be
accomplished by the trip of the engineers
to Panama and he does not think he
would benefit in the least by accompany
ing them. He says in conclusion that if
the commission is able to solve the diff
culties in their way, he will be first to
applaude them and he is willing to vote
them all reasonable funds and authority
that they desire. But he absolutely de-
clines to be party to the visit to the
Isthmus as he thinks it is foredoomed to
be useless.

HOW TO SUCCEED.
When You Go to Work Take the
Whole Man to the Task.

When You Go to Work Take the
Whole Man to the Task.
Only fresh, spontaneous work really
counts. If you have to drive yourself
to your task, if you have to drag your
self to your work every morning be-
cause of exhausted vitality, if you feel
tagged or worn out, If there is no elias
ITCHY in your step or movements. your
work will partake Of your weakness.
Make 1t rule to go to your work ev-
cry morning fresh and vigorous. You
cannot afford to take hold Of the task
upon which your life's success rests
with the tips of your fingers. You can
not afford to bring only fraction Of
yourself to your work. You want to go
to it a whole man, fresh, strong and
vigorous, so that it will be spontane-
GUS, not forced; buoyant, not heavy.
You want to go to your work with ere
alive energy and originality possessed
of strong, powerful individuality. If
you go to it with jaded faculties and a
sense of lassitude after nights dissi-
patton or loss Of sleep, it will inevita-
bly, suffer. Everything you do will
bear the impress Of weakness, and
there is no success or satisfaction. in
weakness.
This is just where a great many peo-
pie fail-in not bringing all of them
selves to their task. The man who
goes to his task with debilitated energy
and low vitality, with all of his stand
ards down and his ideals tagging, with
a wavering mind and uncertain step.
