Flea, Rat and Plague.
From Harper's Weekly.


AS to the place and manner of origin OF
the plague germ. or Bacillus pests. moth
ing definite is yet known. The manner or
its travel and communication to man has
been clearly traced. The bacillus lies
and breeds in the blood of the rat. The
rat is the victim of fieas which live upon
his blood. and as they feed draw into
themselves the plague bacilli which swim
by thousands in his vital fluid. Thus In
fected, and thereby as dangerous as SO
many little dynamite bombs the f1eas pass
with the rats into the habitations of hui
man beings which the rats infest, and
there, from convenient floors or chairs or
beds, leap upon human victims.
The plague laden flea does not poison
man with his bite as the steogomyia mos
quito poisons by injecting the bacillus of
flea. it is true. bites human beings as he
bites other prey. He sucks blood until he
Is replete, and then squirts blood from
his alimentary canal upon his prey.
Therein lies the peril. Plague bacilli are
In this discharge. and II it be left undis-
turbed on the skin of the victim the bacilli
will penetrate the skin and tissues. enter
the circulation and thus infect the person
upon whom the flea has fed.
1t Is this curious manner of infection
by dejecta that makes the bubonic plague
peculiarly dangerous to people who do not
battle frequently. In Japan and in the
United States the spread Of the disease
among human beings even In rat-infected
cities is slow. while in India and China
battle seldom, II ever. the plague runs like
wildfire. 1t is almost impossible for a
person who battles twice a day to become
infected with bubonic plague.

"The Star Spangled Banner"
rom the Pittsburg Ga.ette-Times.

From the PittSDurR GaIette-T1meS.
A major Of the Ohio national guard.
whose home Is in Findlay, Ohio. was re-
Gently much surprised to learn as the
result Of correspondence with the War
Depa rtment at Washington that the
United States has no national anthem
in the strict sense of the words. In a
letter to the major, F. c. Ainsworth,
adjutant general OF the United States
Army. says the only place where this
country recognizes a national hymn is
in general orders No. 246. in which
it is stated that THE Star Spangled
Banner" was formally adopted for the
use of the army, as national air. But
1t is an old story that we have no
national anthem by act Of Congress. So
far as the army and navy are con-
cerned a general order Is just as good
as an act Of Congress. and as for the
people they do not NEED either her, act
Spangled Banner long, before general
orders No 2a6 was dreamed Of. 1t was
partly because Of popular nationaliza-
ton and partly to produce uniformity
OF practice that an order was issued. it
fore, in fact. in THE Star spangled
Banner" national anthem, and another
in Hail Columbia" We are better of
than most nations. which Rave to get
along with only one.
Maj. Gen. Ainsworth in his letter to
the Ohio major speaks Of 1.-THE Star
Spangied Banner as "a national air."
adopted as such for the use OF the army.
The words were not included In the
terms of the general order. The people
have both words and music, and there
fore an anthem. Another general order
may issue in the discretion Of the proper
authority adopting the words to be sung
by the army. but that will not make
1.-The Star Spangled Banner any more
truly national than before the issue Of
general orders No. 246

Dental Hygiene Needed.


DR.. Gardiner will not accept the present
ove.crowding Of the school course as an
excuse for emitting what he regards as
a vital subject. Take out something less
important, he urges, and replace 1t with
dental hygiene. supplementing the in
struction with a periodical inspection Of
the teeth, to begin not later than the
sixth year Of age He concludes:
"Ame ricans are fast becoming a TOOTH
less nation. Young folk from sixteen to
eighteen years Of age are already wearing
artificial teeth, and very few adults can
boast Of a complete set as nature gave
them. Nature intended the teeth to be
sound and intact in both sexes at the age
Of eighty years and this can actually be
achieved by Following simple rules of
mouth hygiene. Something must be done
to counteract the fearful consequences of
our national Indifference. Too great stress
can not 1e laid upon this question.
1--WE are living in the present, but we
must think in the future, and strive to
build for those who are yet to come. The
present becomes the past and the future
the present in such rapid succession that
the man who in any of the serious con-
Germs of life does not think and live in
the future Is certain sooner or later to
find himself hopelessly in the past. And
what greater incentive Is there than this
knowledge to awaken in US an irresistible
desire and earnest purpose to lay broad
and deep the foundation Of that system
which underlies every thing-namely. the
system which educates our students and
determine. the character of the education
which they receiver?

Why Always a Black Bound Biblee
From the Pail Mall Gazette


Why should our Bibles always be
bound in black? was a very pertinent
question put by Bishop Tugwell, fresh
from his field Of labor In western equa-
torial Africa, at a meeting in connec-
ton with the Religious Tract Society's
lO9th anniversary. The bishop viewed
with satisfaction the many Bibles and
prayer books of the society bound In
bright red cloth. instead Of the hitherto
invariable black, q color which is mostly
associated with what Is melancholy.
Bishop Tugwell would no doubt APP.
preciate the brighter and more attrac-
tive colors for his heather converts
more especially. One is reminded in
this connection of the now almost ex.
tinct black gown, to which objection
has been taken for the same reason. the
donnine of which by tho parson before
delivering his sermon savored so much
of the judges putting on the black cap
before pronouncing the death sentence,
whereas the gospel message Is one Of
peace and life.
