known, but one phase of the danger
incident to the continuance of such per-
sons at home has not been brought out
before So wildly as by Miss La Motto.
That is the danger Of contamination to
persons not in the household of the
patient In 1927 Of the homes visited,
that Is, in nearly 80 per cent of the
whole number, home industries Of some
kind were regularly carried on which
brought the tuberculous person into
contact with the outer world. These
occupations came under the head of
light work." because they were not
resorted to until the patient no longer
had sufficient strength to work in a
factory or store. The idea Of continu-
ing the struggle, striving to support
ones self, lessening the family burden,
Is in itself a good one, but the only
means left of putting 1t into operation
Is one full Of danger to the whole COM
munity. Among the occupations which
feeble persons in the last stages Of con-
sumption, racked by coughing, and
scattering infection constantly, have
thought fit to enter are baby farming,
dressmaking, keeping grocery, butcher
shop, oyster saloon, or small dry goods
store, wrapping candy, or giving pri-
vate lessons. Several were BARRIERS,
coming thus into repulsively close con-
tact with their customers. But the
occupation most frequent was laun-
dry work. No less than 231 Of the fam
lilies took In washing to be done at
home, two Of them for restaurants. In
most Of these cases the sick person did
not do the heavy work, but aided in
sorting and folding the clothes and was
constantly in the room with them. The
clothes were in the infected house us
ualJy from Monday morning to Satur-
day night. The nurse made no attempt
to follow up the history of the families
for which washing was done, but 1t was
inevitable that the clothes should be
infected under these conditions. and 1t
was only question Of time when the
Infection would reach a well person at
a moment suitable for communication.
From all such dangers there is only
one remedy, segregation. In many
cases both the patient and the family
would be glad If this could be done,
but to be thorough 1t should be COM
pulsory. A person in the last stages
of tuberculosis is far more dangerous
than a leper and should consent for
the good of others to give up the at
tempt to be independent, otherwise
laudable, as soon as the state does It's
duty and provides a suitable home for
these persons, objects both of pity and
Of dread.

MEXICANs IN TEXAS SCHOOLS.

Children of Many Wealthy Familie"
Educated In San Antonio.
Ten carloads of school children from
Mexico have arrived in this city since
the influx began about two weeks ago,
says the San Antonio Express.
Scoers Of them were accompanied by
their parents, and the hotels of the
city have been indebted, in no small
degree, to this class or visitors for the
brisk conditions which have been ex
perienced by them during the last sew
eral weeks.
Many Of the children travelled from
their distant homes alone or In pairs
sight to see parties of nine or ten from
the same localities across the Rio
Grande ut the various hotels
Nearly all the school equipment and
wearing apparel for the entire year is
purchased for these children here in
respective schools, and the CONNER
cial Importance of their annual visit
can easily be imagined.
Their parents, too, before returning
home, spend several days In the city,
purchasing large quantities Of Ameri-
can goods to take back to Mexico with
them, and as the majority of them ar"
persons Of great wealth and socia.
position at home, their expenditures
amount to thousands of dollars.
Of all the children from Mexico who
are educated in the United States the
schools of San Antonio secure over 20
per cent Not only on account Of the
proximity of the city to the border, but
also because of the general excellence
of the schools and the healthful eli
mate and surroundings experienced
here. San Antonio has always been
the favorite place with the Mexicans
for their children to obtain an English
education.

THE SEEDLEss TOMATO.
1t Has Been Evolved After Years OF
Experim ting.

1t Has Been Evolved After Years OF
experimenting.
Now 1t is the seedless tomato. Sci
ence Is never idle. 1t is as busy evolv-
ing new products for the field and gar
den as 1t Is discovering new sources Of
disease or Harvesting the forces Of ma
ture to new uses
Two methods Of producing seedless
tomato have been tried with success
One of them Is by selection and cross
ing promising varieties; the other, by
high feeding with fertilizers. The sue
cess attained brings out strikingly the
varieties that may be made to occur In
Development of n seedless tomato
has not come sudden1y-few real ad-
vances in science or worldly affairs
do. For number Of years Prof b. ID.
Halsted and his associates have been
working quietly, but continuously and
enthusiastically, at the New Jersey ex-
detrimental stations They have been
breeding vegetables and experimenting
with them in a number of ways When
they succeeded in evolving seedleSs
tomato they conferred real boon up
on the millions whose palates crave
the juicy red fruit of the tomato vine.
1t is well known, of course. that the
ordinary tomato contains hundreds OF
seeds. The form which has been de-
veloped at the New Jersey stations sell
dom contains more than fifty seeds.
Frequently there are not more than
five or six, and many of them are
found to contain not single seed. 1t
Is believed that an entirely seedless va
riety will be fixed and will remain as
the joy Of gardeners ard consumers
through all the coming years.
Prof HalSted has also produced
seedless fruits on several other varie-
ties and crosses of tomatoes. but these,
as rule. were dwarfed in size. Many
of the tomatoes in cluster were not
larger than peas. although solid f1eshed
and frequently of good quality. Some
remarkable freaks in the matter OF
flavor were developed In one instance
the fruit had the flavor Of the straw
berry. To the average person it would
appear that a o-Strawberry would
be a profitable novelty, could it be
found in sufficient quantities.

all were members OF the Established

Directions for Canning.

Before putting fruit in glass Jars
wash them in soap sudS containing
little soda. Then rinse we'll with ScaM
ing water, and set in the sun to dry.
If you want the flavor of the fruit
to come out we'll do not use an excess
OF sugar.
Never use poor fruit for canning The
best Is none too good. Let it he as
fresh as possible, and not oyerripe
Have everything in readiness before
you begin operations. The woman who
has to run to pantry or kitchen every
time thing is wanted makes herself
double the work that's necessary.
Use the best grade Of sugar. 1t may
cost a little more than the ordinary
but it will make your fruit enough bet
ter to pay the difference in cost.
Do not stir your fruit when it is cook
ing. If you want to know how it Is
coming along, take out a piece of 1t
without disturbing the rest.
Give it brisk boiling. If allowed
to stand and simmer it will not retain
its shape we'll. When the cans are
ready for sealing see that tile covers
fit perfectly. Never use one that does
not hug down tightly to the shoulder OF
the lar.

CANCER-HAUNTED HOUSES.

Set of Residents to Another.
The sanitary authorities of Paris
have reached the conclusion that houses
can be infected with cancer and that
rooms which patients have inhabited
Will convey the disease long after the
victims are dead, says the New York
Sun. Observation seems to prove that
in houses where a death from cancer
has appeared the disease often breaks
out again when occupied by other fam
lilies. This fact has so often been noted
that now census has been taken tn
see about houses where cancer patients
died during the last six months of
1906.
There are LOOP houses on the list
which will be watched to see if rho
new residents become affected with +hp
disease. Already in twelve of the
houses there have been two successive
cases, not counting twenty-six deaths
from the same disease. There has nor
yet been sufficient time to draw ahso-
i1te conclusions, but the facts brought
Forward by certain physicians are start
