INTERESTING REMARKS
Remarks by an observer.

1T seem strange 10 me-" remarked a
prominent physician the other day, why
80 many people make light Of what Is. In
many respects, one Of the most dangerous
diseases-Grip. Scores of people whom ]
know seem to regard this deadly malady as
a joke or call II fashionable
Possibly there is no disease that is as
far reaching In iis effects as this same
'fashonable' Grip. Fashionable indeed (!
When I stop to think of the appalling re-
suits of Grip that have come under my
observation, Il makes me shndder. Would
you consider II fashionable to have a
weak heart, affected lungs OF impaired eye
sight Would It be a joke to spend the
remainder Of your days In an insane
asylum These are not mere fancies they
are pictures drawn from life, showing the
awful results from Grip. of course all
persons suffering from an attack OF Grip
are not left with these Affections but
have yet TO discover a person who has had
this disease who has not been left with
some portion of his system weakened. II
is this weak spot that Is susceptible to
every unhealthy influence that comes along.
i he best way to prevent Grip is TO keen the
system in such good condition that it will
throw of any tendencies toward this preva-
lent disease"
The best way to fortlfy yourself against
Grip il to take Magee's Malt Emulsion.
II gives you the strength and vitality neces-
sary TO stand severe weather. and can
always be depended upon. Ii ia nutrient
Of the highest value, and after a period of
low vitality Il puts hope into the patient
and makes life worth living. Il replaces
the wasted tissues and holds all gains.
Magee's Malt Emulsion is a pure cod
liver oil, combined with syrup Diastasic
non-alcoholic Malt and Hypophosphites of
Lime and Soda. Goa Liver Oil has long
been recognized by the medical profession
as the best remedy for Bronchial and
Pulmonary affections ana in Magee's you
get the pure article IN combination with
the Malt and hypophosphites, Diastasic
/ Malt Extract, such as is used in Magee +
/ Malt Emulsion, is non-alcoholic and l.
regarded by physicians as the highest
/ form of food. You thus get a food, d
medicine and a tonic combined. Macee's
Emulsion is the greatest flesh builder and
/ invigorator known. IL strengthens the Weal
and imparts vitality to the most delicat,
| invalid. Don't delay-it's dangerous star
taking 1t today.
Beware of the wine preparations. The,
are only artificial stimulants and the re-
action which follows their use leaves you h
a worse condition than before. There q
/ only one Magee's Malt Emulsion and j
contains no whisky-no wine-iust food.

Probably one reason why the united protest
of reformers for fifty years has had little IN
fuence on legislature is that county politicians,

home because the Sheriff is paid fees and also
profits on his idle boarders. Meantime the ma

NEEDED JAIL REFORMS
Viesrs of Expert in Sociology on
This Subj iect.

Chicago. Oct 26 observation-disclosures Charles
R Henderson. of the department of sociology Of
the University OF Chicago. is already at work on
the preliminary features of report on needed
jail reforms. which will be made to the Congress
OF the National Prison Association a its meeting
next year. AT the congress in Albany in Sep
ternber Professor Henderson was appointed
chairman of committee to prepare a report
containing suggestions that would improve the
condition of jails.
Professor Henderson is particularly we'll quail
fed TO DO this work. owing to his protracted
study of the subject and by reason of the ex-
perience he has had in the work In addition to
having been president of the National Prison
Association in 1902. Professor Henderson was
also one Of the American delegates 10 the Inter
national Prison Conference at Budapest in 1905,
Regarding the subject which he is now con-
sidering, Professor Henderson says:
AT the last meeting of the National Prison
Associat tion the president c. V Collins of New
York. called attention TO the fact. well known to
observers and students, that the essential evils
of our jails have not been much affected by the
discussions OF fifty years. Some minor evils Of
food, ventilation and decent physical conditions
have generally been much improved in that time.
Inoeeo. the sanitary standards OF boards of
health will generally abate nuisance for the
sake OF the public if for the sake of the prs-
oners. But that does not go far.
The essential evils which persist in spite of
the unanimous protest of competent authorities
in Europe and America are two. association and
idleness. If the inventor and propagator of
crime were TO go about his business in the most
direct and methodcal way he would place young
offenders in idleness under the tuition of skilful
and INSCRIPTIONS criminals and his magn OBJ
feet would be accomplished But this is Just
what IS done in most of the county jails in this
country; all offenders are brought near together
even innocent persons held on suspicion or as
witnesses. often in the same hall. OF course.
New-York tribune., 1906-10-28

women usually in different room but often
they are within hearing of men and boys Ine
