an adequate chorus and with orchestral
accompaniment that can give full force
to the ideas of the composer. The
Philharmonic club has been giving this
famous work assiduous attention under
the instruction of Mr.. Oberhoffer, and

effect that is rarely attained. The or

child to keep his pencil out of his
mouth altogether"
In 1902 the Chicago health depart
ment Issued a circular, Suggestions
for the Teaching of Cleanliness Among
School Children" Apparently 1t had
concrete results in reducing the death
rate among children attending the
| public schools. In 1901 the total
number living in Chicago between s
and 20 years of age was 511,916 and
the total number of deaths among
them was 1882, the rate being 3.6S
per 1000. In 1905 the total number
of children between and 20 years
was 579,206, and the total deaths
among them 1899, showing a rate Of
1927 per cent. This percentage of
decrease, ia, was distinct victory
for the advocates of more stringent
sanitary regulations.
Reasons for Such Rules.
In the last bulletin issued by the de-
partment DR.. Charles ]. Whalen, the
commissioner of health of Chicago,
gives some of the underlying reasons
for the school room rules.
He says: '"The poisons of some of
the common and also some of the
most loathsome diseases are frequent
ly carried in the mouth. In such cases
anything which is moistened by the
saliva Of the infected person may, IL
1t touches the lips of another convey
disease. The more direct the contact
the greater the danger.
ut Is the purpose of the health Of
ficials to keep in isolation all persons
having communicable diseases dur
ing the time they are infectious. In
many cases this is impossible. Little
restraint is put on certain mild dis
eases, as measles, whoopingcough,
chickenpox and mumps, and even
such diseases as diphtheria, scarlet
fever and tuberculosis are frequently
so mild as to be unnoticed and chill
dren affected with them mingle free
ly with others. 1t is probable that in
such cases one of the chief vehicles
Of contagion is the secretion of the
mouth and nose.
ut is believed that much can be
done to prevent contagion by teach
ing habits of cleanliness.
But If such instruction is to be eff
fectual It must be continuous. The
teacher should notice and correct
violations of these rules as habitually
as violations of the more formal
school rules are corrected.
Even II the question OF disease
and contagion did not enter the mat
ter at all the subject ought to be
given more attention by teachers.
Our schools should not only teach
reading, writing and arithmetic, but
1t is perhaps quite as important that
they should inculcate cleanliness de-
cency, refinement and manners.
Cleanliness should be taught for
Its own sake, even II 1t had no rela-
tion whatever to health.-

TO SIGN TREATY OF PEACE.
Warning Central American States
Came to an Agreement.

San Jose, Costa Rica, Sept. 15.-
The fourth article of the treaty OF
peace between Guatamala, Salvador
and Honduras, which was signed or
board the Marblehead on July 20, pro-
vided that within two months of that
date the contracting parties sign a

as the place where the representatives
of the treaty powers should meet.
In accordance with the terms of the
treaty the government of Costa Rica
sent invitations to the governments OF
Guatemala Salvador and Honduras
inviting them to arrange for a meet
ing of their representatives at San
Jose on September IS, for the purpose
of signing a general treaty of peace,
friendship, commerce, etc.
This day was selected, because 1t Is
Costa Rica's independence day. The
invitations were cordially accepted and
today the representatives of the thres
treaty governments met here in a
formal manner. They were receivd
by the prsident of Costa Rica and a
number of nigh officials and the meet

importation of meats from the United
States. The new regulations provide
that cuts of fresh beef from abroad
shall be microscopically examined to
see whether the glands contain tu-
berculosis symptoms. If they do, the
meat will not be admitted. Inasmuch
as American refrigerated meat has
the glands removed prior to shipment,
the regulations will practically exclude

German government has also stopped
the shipment of American canned
meats to the troops in Africa, although
it is under contract for a regular sup
ply until October.
