Not everyone knows that there is a
Washington Printing Office maintained
by the Government which is the largest
and most expensive printing establish
ment IN the world. It prints all the
Government reports, the Congressional
record, and hundreds of other publica-
tons bound and unbound. Ware houses
are used to protect the cords of useless
publications until they reach their final
fitting home, the junk shop, or are
ground into paper pulp. AS many as
three thousand people are employed in
this printing Office. Perhaps there never
was in any establishment, private or
official, so many useless and incompetent
employees. Many of them are people

they were the political helpers or relatives

Cr. Dixon Scores Notable Life-Saving
Triumph Among the Poor of Penn
syIvania - Hopes For Still
Better Record.

The Health Commissioners, Samuel
G. Dixon, couple OF months ago an
nounced that use of free antitoxin
among diphtheria victims who were too
poor to pay for the serum had reduced
the death rate to S.S per cent. This
was a splendid result and showed the
great benefits OF the State paying for
antitoxin for those who might other
wise not be able % procure it and in
consequence pI b. ly die.
Now Health ( missioner Dixon
announces thct ccccrding to the rec
ords compiled ii ti, ,ot.iee he finds
that during ne icag months of Novem-
Der and December, l9e1. and January
and February, 1906, there has not been
a single death from diphtheria where
the free use of antitoxin provided by
the State has been used within "a
hours after the onset of the disease
and in doses recommended in circulars
sent out by the Commissioner.
Dr. Dixon attached great import
ance to this fact, and hopes that the
same results will be secured in far
larger number of cases by physicians
throughout the State using free anti
toxin more promptly.
This prompt use of antitoxin has
been urged by Health Commissioners
Dixon from the start of the free dis
triDution He has urged it in his cor
rospondence with fellow-medical men
and the local Boar Is of Health
throughout the State, and especially In
the circular which is contained III
every package of the States free anti
toxin
The early use of antitoxin Is es-
sentiel." says Health Commissioner
Dixon in this circular, and he endeav
ors to impress it upon the people by
heavily underscoring the words of ad
vice.
In this circular also Dr. Dixon has
given general directions for the ad
minstration of antitoxin in both cura
tive and minimizing doses that have
been found exceedingly helpful to ply
sicians in Pennsylvania Never less
than 1000 units, says DR.. Dixon, should
be used for a curative dose; in ad
vanced cases he says to increase the
initial curative dose from 5000 to 5000
units
II Improvement Is not manifested
within six hours following the initial
dose, give 5000 units, and if no benefit
is to be observed within the following

Loomis, after having been separated
from the service of the Government a
few months, and long enough for pes-
pie to forget what he did in the Vene-
zuelan matters, is to be reappointed in
the Diplomatic Service. Secretary of
War Taft gave him the title which will
stick. He said that, to say the very
least, Mr.. LoomiS had been very in
discreet in his actions toward and
controversy with his successor, Mr.
Bowen, at the post in Venezuela. The
Senate does not like Mr.. Loomis for
anything, and the question is whether
ii will confirm his nomination if the
President sends it in. The President
wants to send him to some South
American post. it is said, but Mr..
Loomis is loath to go there. He desires
TO go to Europe. There seems to be a
desire on the part of some people to
belittle the late Secretary Hay and to
give Mr.. Loomis the credit for much
that Mr.. Hay did, which is. of course,
all tommy-rot. 1t is even said
that when the shifting around in the
Cabinet comes next October. when Sec
