Is Disease a Crime (?

Not very long ago, a 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 10 the
violation of certain OF Natures laws
But to say that all sickness should ts
regarded as criminal, must appeal TO
every reasonable individual as radically
wrong.

PRAYED POR SNAKES.

In 1850 there lived in the south
ern part of Missouri a family by
the name Of Weaver-very hard
characteristic old man, his wife
and five grown-up boys. During
the spring John Weaver was bitten
by rattlesnake. Everything was
resorted to for his relief, but
all to no avail. When they saw he
must die, they sent for an old Bap-
fist preacher to pray for him. He
prayed as follows: "We thank
thee, Almighty God, for thy watch
full care over us, for thy goodness
and tender mercy, and especially
do we thank thee for rattlesnakes.
Thou hast sent one to bite
John Weaver. We pray thee to
send one to bite Jim, one to bite
Henry, one to bite Sam, one to bite
Joe, and we pray thee to send the
biggest kind Of a snake to bite the
old man, for nothing will ever
bring the Weaver family to repent
ance. There are others in Nilsson
ri Just as bad as the Viewers. We
pray thee to stir up Missouri, and,
il nothing else will bring the peo-
pie to repentance, we pray thee to
shower down more rattlesnakes.
Amen. Exchange.

ANNUAL "CLEAN UP" TOWN.

The mayor of Denver, Col, has
decided each year to set aside day
for the "cleaning up" of his city.
The results year were marvellous.
The city set an example by thor
oughly cleaning all down -tFsFn
business streets and alleys, paint
ing al the poles used in its fire and
police system, placing new and i'm
proved refused cans at down town
street and alley crossings, Eand
erecting a number of bronZed iron

owners repainled and repaired their
buildings th,' work which could

continued duriug rhr week. Lawns
in all paris of thr city were clean
| ed, shade trees trimmed aud Hover
beds set ont. Weeds were eat on
dozen of vacant lots and sidewalks
were repaired everywhere.
The city was transformed in day
and there is every indication that it
will De kept SO. Prizes will be Of
feed for the most attractive down
town store front, for the finest flow
er garden, for the best kept lawn,
for the cleanest vacant lot and for
the most beautiful block, and the
agitation will be continued until
tDenver becomes the cleanest city in
the United States.
Here are some of Mayor Speer's
suggestions, issued IN the form OF
an official proclamation to the peo-
pie:
"If your store front, residence or
fence is dingy, order it painted.
eff your awning is old, torn or
faded, get new one.
If your sidewalk. gate or fence
needs repairing, fix is
"If your advertising sign is old
or faded, take it down or paint it.
/. Resolve never to throw paper in
the streets.
"Take all dandelions out of your
lawns-they spoil its beauty.
"Destroy all the young weeds
that are starting on your property |
and on your neighbours property.
"Burn all the rubbish possible
allow no one to throw it on the
streets, alleys or vacant lots.
"Promise not to spit on the side
walk.
"Organize block-improvement
society aud allow no weeds to grow
on sidewalk area or vacant property
in your block.
"Ask your milkmen, groeerymon
and expressmen to have their wag-
Ons painted.
Irrespective of the size of your
house make your lawn the finest.
eliminate the front Of your
store in the business section.

spent to improve our city's appear

DEMOCRATS MISS A GREAT OPPOR.
TUNITY.

~ never saw such a situation in
Washington as there is now" said
Hon. R. F. Broussard, of New Ibe-
ria, Representative from the Third
District, who had come home to at
tend to important business, and
will return to Congress in few
days. "The only measure of i'm
portance that has passed the House
is the Philippine Tariff Bill. The
Statehood Bill is still hanging in
Committee, because of the situation
growing out of opposition to the
Philippine Tariff Bill ION the part
of the Western Republicans in the
House, known as insurgents.
1.-The insurgent Republicans are
believed to have revolted against
the management Of the leaders of
the majority, and seem to be hold
ing out against joint statehood for
Arizona and New Mexico. believed
at the time, and believe now, that
coalition of the Democrats with
the insurgent Republicans would
have defeated both the Philippine
Tariff Bill and the joint Statehood
Bill, both of which were admins
tration measures.
1.-THE defeat Of these measures
would have placed the minority in
a commanding position, for they
would have held throughout the
session the balance of power be-
tween Regular, or Stalwart, Repuh-
licans and the insurgents. This
certainly would have enabled them
to have shaped legislation, and
would have afforded them All OPP
portunity Of casting the deciding
vote on many a proposition on rail
road rate regulation, aud give the
Democrats the right in whatever
bill regulating railroad rate Iegisla-
ton that might become law, many
propositions to which the Demo-
Gratis are committed. Bat, in my
judgment, the opportunity has
passed.
"The friction continues however,
between insurgents and Stalwarts
to make the situation very uncer-
tain and very interesting. The
Philippine Bill has gone to the
Senate, where it will probably stay
in committee for some time to come,
due to an equally interesting sitna
ton there. The situation grows
out of a division of Republicans on
account of Legislation to regulate
railroad rates. 1t is probable that
the Philippine Tariff Bill will be-
defeated in either the Committee or
10 the Senate itself. That, of course.
depends upon how well or how i'll
the differences between Repu blicau
Senators cited in the foregoing can
be reconciled. "-Picayune.

KNEW HER LOVERS INTENTIONS
Young Girl Was Far Wiser Than
Her Neither.

A young lawyer had become very
much attached to certain young
woman, who was somewhat celebrat.
ed among her friends for her repair
tee. The only obstacle in the path
way of the young man was his ex-
ceeding shyness, for while always in
command of himself in the court
room, he became almost speechless
in the presence of his adored one. AS
one method of showing his devotion
it was his custom to shower his inam-
orata with presents, says Harper's
Weekly.
The young lady's mother, being far
from satisfied with the status of the
case, preached the subject.
"My DEAR" she said, you have let
Mr. Brown practically monopolize
your society for year, and now have
scarcely any other callers. Has he
ever given you to understand that
hia intentions are serious?"
mo, he hasn't said anything, but ]
know they are"
How can you know, If he has said
nothing?"
The girl smiled.
"Well," she said, you know he is
a lawyer, and lawyers always COM
mence a contract with Know all men

TypeWriters Catch Cold.

The employer looked on with a puz

rapher carried the typewriter across
the room and placed it on chair in
the immediate neighborhood of a
steam radiator.
"I'll be ready in just minute, Mr..
L." she said. "The typewriter got
cold while the heat was turned off
and it sticks dreadfully."
Does the cold affect them?" he
asked. That's something new"
"Yes, sir. l find tina. It does, very
much Some machines regularly take
cold If left long in cold room. It's
especially hard on old machines that
are pretty well worn, making them
very unmanageable sometimes. I've
known the cold to remain in an old
one until it had been several hours in
warm room, when it gradually be-
came better; but usually machine
yields to three or four minutes of
warmth"

Dee N by Drowning.

Drowning 'eople do not throw up
their hands just as they start to sink,
for this is a feat which can be per.
formed only by good swimmers. Be-
sides, one must tread water to throw
the hand up out of the water. A
strange fact about drowned people is
that, owing to the different construc.
ton of the body, men always float
face down and women face up. Wom-
en- always swim with the instep, max
ing a straight backward and forward
stroke with the legs, while nan
propels himself with the sole of his
foot and describes circles with his
legs.
