that he was treating humorously a very serious subject, and that he ought to be replaced by a corres- pendent who is aware that a su- preme political conflict is not a joke.
 On second thought, we believe that to be funny is the victim of envir- onment; that as a resident of Lincoln what appears to be silence" to him would seem like loquacity else where.
 To those who work in and about boiler factories the constant deafen- ing hammering of rivet heads be- comes in time a kind of silence" which may be broken in one of two ways-either by a cessation of the din or else by a shattering ex- plosion or some other unusual over whelming noise.
 Lincoln for some years has been a political boiler factory, and the in- habitants have become used to the clamor.
 The dispatches for the last three weeks have neglected to record the silence" as we understand it, of MT. Bryan on any subject save one Following the outburst of Col. Guffey at Denver, there was a silence so dense that the Lincolnites must have been appalled,. We remember also that the correspondent at Lincoln in his dispatches concerning that epi- sode, never alluded to the silence of Mir Bryan, perhaps for the reason that he had had no experience with the application of that strange term to his distinguished fellow townsman.
 That is, as we have hitherto re- marked, the word silence has come to mean at Lincoln, something quite different from it's meaning where clamor is the exception to a preva- lent order of things.

SILENCE" AT LINCOLN AND

The Associated Press dispatches of yesterday stated that when MT. Bryan was informed that MT. Taft had de- clared that the republican national committee should receive no contri- buttons from corporations, he broke his usual silence."
 We were at first inclined to the be- lief that the Associated Press cor respondent at Lincoln, Neb., was a jocose person and that at a very early stage of the national. campaign he was indulging in ill-judged pleas antry at the expense of Mir, Bryan;

THE DEADLY DRINKING CUP.


 Those who are engaged in the world warfare against tuberculosis should cause a wide distribution to be made among teachers, school authori- ties. parents and the elder pupils, of an article in the current Technical World Magazine" called Death in the School Drinking Cup" by Professor Alvin Davidson of the chair of biol ogy in Lafayette College
 Most persons of average intelli- gence have been informed of the dan gers of the community drinking cup but few perhaps realize the extent and imminence of the peril and fewer still the revolting nastiness of it. That alone should prescribe it even if death did not turk in it.
 The article is copiously illustrated. The first illustration is a photograph of three glass tumblers, one clean, the other two having been used nine days in a school. The photograph was taken after the cups had been treated with a staining solution to color the particles of dead skin and germs adhering to the glass;
 Another illustration consists of pencil drawings of the human epi- thelial cells on the surface of the glass at one point near the top. There is also a pencil drawing of the bacteria as seen under a high-power microscope of one of the thousands of cells adhering to the inside of one of the cups. Other photographs show the inner surface of the cup to be covered with decaying human cells, the contributions of many drink CTS. jt&
 Two other cups had been in use for several months in a high school and in both germs of tuberculosis were found and millions of other bacteria
 Here is what was found in the washings of one of the cups collected by sterile water and a sterile swab: Particles of mud, thousands of pieces of skin from the human mouth and millions of bacteria" A part of the sediment from these washings was injected under the skin of a guinea pig, which died in forty hours. A microscopic examination of its blood revealed. pneumonia germs.
 The writer believes that 100000 deaths annually from diptheria, men ingitis, bronchitis, tuberculosis and grippe may be traced to the common drinking cup.
 The article concludes with the fol- lowing from a circular of the bureau of animal industry: "The inhalation theory to account for the occurrence of pulmonary tuberculosis has been shown to be no longer -tenable because no substance can be carried into the finer bronchioles by the respiFatery. process, and because the tuberculosis lesions in the lungs have been shown to spread from the vascular system, | the finer capillaries, and not from the | air passages. Dried and pulverized | material has been shown | to lack infectiousness, and the in | fectious spray discharged from the | mouths of tuberculous persons dur ing speaking and coughing has been shown to be of importance only in their immediate environment, unless such persons are permitted to handle articles of food to which the larger droplets of the spray may adhere.

HOW THE TURKS KEEP TIME

THERE Is one custom AZ least, IN the Otto
dominions IN Europe, that causes
foreign visitors a great deal Of trouble and
confusion. This IS the Turkish system of
reckoning time. \ Turk holds that the dav
begins exactly At sunset; and accordingly al
that time he sets his clocks and watches At
the hour of twelve.
In view Of the fact that the sun has the
same habits IN presiding over Turkey that It
exercises with reference 70 other localities, II
follows that this system OF reckoning time re
quIres setting the clocks every day IL ap-
pears that u watch that could run for weeks
without gaming or losing a minute would be
