FEDERAL, BUREAU OF HEALTH.
DIR. William H WEIGH, dean Of the
medical faculty of Johns Hopkins uni
versity, as president of the American
association for the advancement Of
science made an address in Chicago
the other day in which he said that
this nation placed the health of hogs
above that of people. His words were
more rhetorical than truthful.
When the department of agricul-
ture promotes the health of animals
which are to become dressed meat it
promotes the health of the American
people However, Dr. Welch's re-
mark brings out the point that there
is no national bureau Of health.
Though work directly, as well as in
directly, for the health of the people
is done by various branches of the
federal administrative service, it
would be more continuous, more ef-
flcient and more extensive If 1t were
all done in one division of q depart
ment of the national government.
Physicians with other men Of
science and social service workers
have been advocating vigorously
through a committee of 100 the es-
ia blishment of a national department
of health with secretary at its head
having a place in the presidents
cabinet. Yet however large a part
the federal government comes to take
in safeguarding the public health, it
is certain that most of that work is a
matter of state, county and municipal
concern. President Roosevelts recon-
mendation that efforts by federal Of
ficials to protect the public health be
under the direction of a bureau in
one of the established departm ents
seems reasonable.
Such a bureau could do much to CO.
ordinate the work of local agencies,
particularly with reference to quaran-
tine and the interstate and interuf-
ban aspects of water supply and
drainage. 1t is to be hoped that the
federal bureau of health.-Baltimore
JAPAN.
Now that the japanese spies have
done their deadly work-have photo
graphed the city hall at Portland,
Oregon, measured the distance be-
tween San Francisco and Seattle,
taken the depth of the water in the
main channel of the Potomac. counted
the skycrapers in New York, traced
the crooked streets of old Boston. hur-
riedly glanced at the coast line of
Maine, and thus prepared japan to
strike-the latest news is that the
army and navy are under orders and
war will soon begin. Paris is greatly
excited, and spectators are lingering
the ticker nervously. Suppose we
leave It ali to the gamblers. Suppose
we let the ticker do its deadly work,
instead of lying awake nights ponder
ing tall yarns conceived either in
ignorance or malice, and circulated for
pocketboek purposes only.-Washing

WHEN RILEY AND CARAVAN MET.
James Whitcomb Riley and Bliss
Carman, though comrades of long
standing in art, did not meet till COM
paratively recently. 1t was in Wash
ington, and the Canadian poet, whose
head is fully six feet four inches above
ground, was walking down Pennsyl-
Vania avenue with a friend.
Observing Riley approach, and know
ing that the two poets had never met,
the Washingtonian took occasion to
introduce them.
Struggling with suppressed emotion,
the laureate of childhood dropped his
eyes to the pavement, gradually per-
mitted his glance to travel upward, as
though Analysing a new species of sky
scraper, and with an expression of in
imitable drollery calculated, "Well, by
jimminy! Your parents must hev
trained yeou on a trellis."

ODD THINGS ABOUT FISHES.

Fishes have been put to many queer
uses while still alive but probably the
strangest was that suggested to the
War Department by an inventor. The
propulsion of submarine torpedoes was
the subject under discussion, and he
proposed that shark be imprisoned in
tube at the rear end of the projectile,
its movements to be controlled by the
active application of electricity. In
case the shark attempted to swim away
1t was to be given an electric shock,
and in this way kept on it's course un-
til the torpedo had reached its target.
-Another remarkable use to which a
fish has been put is as a barometer.
The loach is very susceptible to atmos-
pheric changes, and when retained in
an aquarium is likely to throw itself
out at the approach of or during any
remarkable change of wind or wea-
ther, or, if in a pond or stream, will
sometimes jump on the bank. 1t has
been kept alive in aquaria as a living
barometer from the supposition that
certain movements indicate particular
changes that are about to occur in the
weather. In Russia the dead body of
Cottus gobio, the millers thumb, is
used as weathercock. Hung by a
single thread, 1t will point to the d.
rection whence the wind blows.-sun-
