cANE-sEAT CHAIRS CONDEMNED.

"TOurist' Chairs
Now Declared Most Unhealthy.
The tourist sleeping car used on the
railroad lines beyond Chicago and St
Louis have been spoken of frequently
as more sanitary than the upholstered
Pullmans, and, therefore, in addition
to their cheapness, a desirable point to
most Of the sick travellers, they were
supposed to be cleaner, for the seats
are covered with cane and have no
hooks to harbor dust and germs. Ply
sicians have strongly denounced the up
hOlstered cars as promoters Of the
spread Of tuberculosis. The railroad
people have had some tests made to Off
set that denunciation with statistics.
DR.. Charles B. Dudley, the chief chem
ist of the Pennsylvania Railroad, has
made an investigation Of the contents
Of car upholstery, and has reported to
the American Public Health Ass0cia-
ton. Dr. Dudley shows that prolonged
exposure to tuberculosis in the air is
necessary If travellers are to take the
disease from this source Of infection.
He says that two days of strong light
and five days Of diffused light will
sterilize the germs. This argument
does not seem to show that passengers
bound to the West in tourist sleepers
with tuberculosis patients may not run
the risk of infection, especially if they
are in delicate health, and prepared to
contract the disease. No germs were
found from the examinations made Of
the contents of the cars known to have
been occupied by passengers suffering
from tuberculosis. In ninety-six exam
nations of the air found in such cars
only one test showed the presence of
the bacillus. To inform himself as to
the relative danger of textile fabrics
and smooth surfaces, DIR. Dudley made
experiments with several kinds in each
class, and his results go to show that
danger from infection from upholstered
furniture is much less than from the
naked, smooth surfaces. = Brooklyn

people who attain to Individual excel

taught by private tutors here and
abroad. A very early familiarity with
French, German, and Italian gave her
the basis for wide reading, and when
she came upon Goethe she was more
prepared than the average to take to
reach after high and effective culture.
At any rate, it Is to Goethe above all
other literary influences that Mrs.

u. S. EXPORTS TO CANADA
DOUBLE GREAT BR/7A/N'S

ada's trade returns for the fiscal year
which ended in June last showed an
increase Of imports from the United
States of $14,000,OO0 and from Great
Britain of $S,7O0,000. In proportion to
total volume. the British imports made
the better gain of the two. But the
motherland is decidedly our best GUS
toner.
Canada. bought more than two and
a half times as much from the United
States as it did from Great Britain,
while in export trade Great Britain
bought about one and a half times
more than did the United States. The
excess in the American over British
goods imported by Canada Is greatest,
in duty-free goods: in other words
raw materials for manufacture. of
which the United States sold about
five to Great Britain's one dollars
worth.
Why Canada should incline towards
the United States for SO large a pro-
portion of her imports is subject
we'll worthy of looking into.

women tainted and the remainder of
the crowd Joined in a panicstricken
rush to the door.
The mans death was most dramatic.
He had apparently felt that his end
was near, for in the middle of the
service he arose and staggered up the
aisle toward the altar. with his arms
outstreatched, his hands clutching at
the empty air and look of agony on
his tense. drawn features. With am
inarticulate, gasping sound coming
from his lips. as if he were trying to
utter prayer. he fell against the
altar and then his body dropped back
ward. falling face upward on the floor.
Only the presence of mind of Rabbi
Krauskopf, who had been conducting
the services and who called out in a
loud voice that everything was all
right, prevented a general stampede.
