The Tuberculosis Congress.
OKLA.


Few things which mark the modern
progress OF civilization have advanced
so rapidly as knowledge Of the nature
and durability OF tuberculosis. The
decision of physicians that the disease
is not hereditary has lifted a burden
OF dread from thousands of hearts, and
the success of methods of treatment In
the early stages Of the disease has
brought hope to thousands OF others.
But far more important than this has
been, and will be, the work OF bringing
about an understanding OF the dangers
OF the disease and impressing the ne.
cessity of precautions. From Septem-
ber 21 to October IL the United States
will be the host Of the international
congress on tuberculosis, which is to
meet In Washington. Mr.. Roosevelt
has lately accepted the presidency OF
the congress The occasion Will un-
doubtedly be the most important event
that has yet occurred In the fight
against the dread disease. The con.
ventlon will bring together the most
noted experts Of the world, and meth
DDS Of treatment and prevention which
have shown the best results will be
illustrated. 1t will be as interesting
to the layman as to the physician. for
in the stamping out Of consumption
much Of the work will have to be done
by laymen--ofiicers Of state and city
governments. the police, boards OF
health and private citizens. 1t Is to be
hoped. says the Youths Companion.
that the congress will also do some
thing to allay the gfoundless fear
which many persons have OF anyone
known to be suffering from tubercu.
losis-an attitude which frequently
renders 1t impossible to secure the
most desirable sites for treatment
camps or hospitals. and often results
in grave injustice, II not actual cruel
ty, to the individual. II due precau-
tion is observed isolation Is In no way
necessary. This, indeed. Is the chief
lesson which those most familiar with
the matter are trying to impress.

Another national park Is likely to be
added to the domains of the United
States at the next session Of congress.
The senate committee on public lands
has reported in favor Of taking the
wild and beautiful glacier region Of
the continental divide In Montana--a
tract comprising nearly million
acres. The region contains numerous
peaks from 5000 to 10000 feet in
height and about 60 glaciers. The
large number of big game animals,
such as Rocky mountain white goats.
blghorn. grizzly. deer. elk and moose.
suggests the value Of reserving the
tract as breeding'ground for the sur.
rounding region. The name proposed
is the Glacier National park.

Freight shipped to merchants east
OF the Mississippi must be plainly
marked with the name and address OF
the consignee hereafter, according to q
recent decision OF the railroad compa-
MES. 1t has been the practice Of manu-
facturers to mark the goods with a
hieroglyphic. partly to save time In
shipments. and partly to prevent spies
from competitors learning who their
customers are. This practice has made
It difficult for the railroad companies
10 deliver the goods. One company Is
said to have lost fifteen hundred thou
sand dollars In the last ten years, be-
cause II has had to reimburse shippers
for goods lost on the road Goods In
carload lots may go marked In cipher
rs heretofore. as II Is not difficult TO
deliver car at the point to which II Is
billed.

The Brownsville daily herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1897-1910, 1908-08-05

Hundreds of people in the north
and west expect to come to the
Brownsville country in the fall, eth
er to invest or to improve land they
have already purchased in this sec
ton. Almost without exception these
people are regular subscribers to the
Weekly Herald, and it would surely
pay the leading land dealers as well
as other business firms all over this
section to carry an ad in the paper.
Those who come to buy land will
want to know about the land bar
gains, and those who come to locate
and improve their land will want to
know where to buy their household
goods and farm implements. 1t pays
to advertise, and there is no better
medium in this section than the
Weekly Herald. This applies to the
merchants of San BenitO, HarIingen,
Mercedes, Hidalgo, as well as those
of Brownsville.
