Is Disease a Crime /?

Not very long ago. popular magazine
published an editorial article In which
the writer asserted, In substance, that all
disease should be regarded as criminal.
Certain 1t is, that much OF the sickness
and suffering of mankind Is due to tho
violation OF certain of Natures laws.
But to say that all sickness should be
regarded as criminal must appeal to
every reasonable individual as radically
wrong.
1t would b, harsh, unsympathetic,
cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor,

guiding A CHINA CLOSET.


How to Make One That Saves 80 Per
Cent Of nreakage.
An ideal china closet Is built between
the dining room and kitchen. so that /,
can be entered unobserved when guests
are at the table. says the Boston Trav-
eler. The shelves are not more than
fourteen inches wide and about nine
teen inches apart. II wider than this
the tendency is to pile too many dishes
upon them. and they are apt to give
way.
Corrugated rubber, such as Is used
beside kitchen sinks, Is an excellent
covering for the shelves and decreases
the breakage Of china by 30 per cent.
A serviceable device for use when
plates are stood on ends is TO use rope
instead of cleat to hold them and to
fasten 1t at the corners and in the
center by double headed tacks driven
down tightly into the shelves This be-
ing slightly yielding the plates are less
apt to fall over from sudden jar or
slight blow. Heavy pieces, such as
platters and vegetable dishes, should be
placed on the lowest of the broad
shelves, the greatest weight being
brought as far as possible over the
cleats.
Hooks on which cups are hung should
not be screwed on the edge of the
second shelf, but well underneath 1t.
They should be tested from time to
time lest nv the settling of tho houeo
and of the shelves they become loose.
The second shelf should be about
three inches narrower than the one be.
meath 1t TO admit Of large dishes being
lifted out safely, The upper shelves.
unless used for large dishes, may be
flush with the second. The top shelf
should have broad cleat across and
around it. This Is for the purpose of
keeping the various odds and ends.

FLoRlDA's FINE H.oHWAYs.
Great Work of Convicts on Good
Roads Proposition.

The use of convict labor III the con-
struction of public works is phase Of
economics which has been tried in the
southern states with greater or less
need of success. says the Motor News.
Florida is the latest state to fall IN
line and put her convicts to work. and
roud building is the task which has
been chosen for the wrongdoers. This
work has now been going on for some
time, aud at the results accomplished
tie Floridians express great satisfsc-
ton. The work. they say is not only
beneficial in giving the prisoners an
opportunity to do something. but the
exercise and outdoor life tend TO the
improvement of their health.
Under the system adopted in the
Peninsular State the prison laborers
enter scarcely at all in competition
with their free brothers The roads
would not be built If the cost was
high. and as the state obtains the labor
for the bare cost of keeping the labor
ers the expense of laying out and
building magnificent system of high
ways is comparatively slight.
Along the east coast of Florida there
are inexhaustible quarries of cochina
rock, while in the district lying south
of Daytona to New Smyrna great
quantities of oyster shells are to be
found. Both furnish excellent ma
terials for road building. Thus Florida
has close at hand an abundant aud
cheap supply of road material.
The cochina rock is soft and easily
quaTied. 1t requires but simple ma
chinery to crush it, some of it being
merely granulated beneath rollers aft
er 1t is placed on the surface of the
road. The beautiful baths at Palm

Beach are made of cochina rock, and it
has been used in The construction Of
the excellent road which has recently
been completed between Palm Beach
and Miami.
Roads on which this material has
been used require but little repairing,
the experience having been that they
improve with age, the stone being
ground down until 1t is like the finest
macadam.
On the southern automobile circuit
the motorists recently encountered
many crews and gangs of convicts at
work along the Palm Beach-Miami
road. They also passed a convict
camp where the prisoners were en-
gagged in mining the cochina rock at
the roadside.
The convicts are worked In gangs of
half dozen or so, They are under
guard of keeper, who carries a load
ed rifle, while dogs are kept at hand
to track any prisoner who might feel
impelled to take French leave. This,
however. rarely happens. Florida is
not land in which one would be
tempted TO run away.
