FOUNTAIN CLEANER

A sanitary soda fountain cleaner
has been installed at the Owl soda
fountain, and is convenience which
satisfies a long felt want at that dis
ponsary The cleaner is automatic
and works by water power The
glass is pushed down between two
sets of brushes, and its own pressure
causes these to revolve and, throws
out the tiny streams of water. The
water for each glass is clean and
fresh, and the appearance Of the
glasses would delight any housewife.

CONSUMPTION AND COOKED FOOD.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: The Tribune usually hits the mark in dis
cussng medical topics but its editorial on tubercu
losis August TO- fails teach unadulterated truth
The main contention of the article is all right
namely that this disease is transmitted by inges-
ton of food containing germs rather than by in
halation. But the article seems to out of its
way that 1t is reasonable to believe that
protection by incubation will become feasible
some day, and to yearn after this method
when. truth, such protection viii never be ad-
visabe, If possible AS second best rem
edy, the editorial offers keeping the germs from
gaining admission 10 the body as, at present, the
most effective plan. and advises strict watch on
the articles diet. This may be science, it is
not philosophical science. Philosophy would say,
Make the body healthy and malignant germ
will live in it" And this would be safer advice
for it will hardly be possible to avoid germs with
out resort cooking. and. Of all the schemes
concocted by TO undermine his health, the
application of heat TO food in frying, roasting
baking broiling and boiling is the most effective
TO that dire end.
No writer therapeutics is forgivable for
dropping word that will tend perpetuate
this greatest Of all evils the eating Of cooked
food If consumption be prevented in no
other way, it will not be worth while prevent
it Z. D BRINKERHOFF.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
SUFFRkGETTEs AS PRISON MARTYRS.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Whatever may be thought of OF the
methods of the sufragettes no one with ap-
probation for pluck help admiring their cour-
age Fifteen women let out of Holloway
jail the other day, after serving their term for
calling out Votes for women and similar deadly
offences. Their friends met them at the prison
gate and escorted them in triumph, with bands
playing and flags flying, a banquet, where hun
dreds of sympathizers were gathered to celebrate
their release. They brought messages from the
women whose terms had not yet expired. and these
messages. as well as the speeches of the released
prisoners, breathed the indoritable spirit.
Miss Mary Phillips sent the greeting Tell Mrs.
Pankhufst and the other friends that am very,
very glad to serve the three months because
think il will be good for the cause My only regret
is that 1 have bodies-one TO do the work
outside, as well inside
Miss Joachirn's message was: Tell Mrs. Pank-
hurst that 1 expect to come out on September le,
and 1 shall be quite ready to come back on the
18th"
Miss Florence Lowell said: eff you don't mind
eating with your fingers, walking round and round
in the baking sum- washing your hands only once
day, lying on bed stuffed with nails or chunks
of wood, suffocating cell, and wearing clothes
that don't fit or boots with nails the wrong way
up, then Holloway is not such a bad place But L
determined I would smile. and have smiled for a
whole month"
Mrs. Lily Simpson Mosen said her husband had
asked Herbert Gladstone for leave to see her, and
had been told that he might if he would try to
persuade her to give bonds not TO repeat the Of
fence Mr.. Mosen answered that the condition was
a insult than q refusal would have been
Miss Edith New sent the message, Tell them
that the Holloway air is very good, and am
going TO stick it out" All the others were in the
strain
After the banquet the ex-prisoners were driven
in decorated carriages around Haggerston where a
by-election was going on They were hailed with
enthusiasm by the crowds and they urged the
people the Liberal candidate while
the Liberal government which had sent more than
three hundred women TO prison for asking for IL
continued to refuse women the ballot. Haggerston
is normally Liberal. but this time the Conservative
candidate for Parliament elected by a large
majority The result is believed to be due to the
active campaign made by the suffragettes, of winch
the visit OF the released prisoners was only the
elimination.
This is the fifteenth by-election at which the
suffragettes helped to defeat Liberal candi-
date for Parliament.

PROPERTY PROTECTION IN RIOTS

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: The riot at Springfield, H., with four
thousand soldiers for protection in the streets,
will serve TO recall similar occurrences at Spring
field Ohio, in 1904 and 1906. where sixteen build
ings were destroyed. A protective clause in insur-
ance policies protects the companies from loss in
such cases-a fact not generally known-and the
only resort for property owners is suits against
the town county the state. But. unfortu-
nately. the condition of Ohio law is such that no
suits can be maintained and none IS to be
brought
Being unsuccessful in trying arouse opinion
through the press in Ohio for revision of the
laws and for repayment for losses. l placed the
matter before the Citizens League Of Springfield
Ohio Only one Of the members expressed his sym
patty I then appealed to number of them in
dividually and 'as good citizens" On action
being manifested, I laid the whole matter before
the Governor OF Ohio, where it rests.
Such is the Interpretation of Ohio laws OF prop
erty as against rioters. Yet ii Is evident that a
fundamental principle property rights and civ-
zaton is here at stake. The impression arises
that the national government should examine into
the status or this question in the different states

When NJ Vesnitch arrived in Paris to represent
servia as minister penipOteutiary. accredited by
King Peter TO the French Republic. he was wei
coined with the utmost cordially by the German
Ambassador Prince Radou. This created some
comment as II was known that the prince
had been previously acquainted with the Servfan
envoy. On being questioned about the matter Rado-
in remarked:
OF course, I know him very well indeed. When
I was German Minister at Belgrade II he who
s~sry morning used 70 sweep the street in front

This Of course led 10 further inquiries. where
spen the prince explained that during the reign Of

larry those prisoners who had been guilty OF in
fraction Of the press laws were employed as street
sweepers under the watchful eye Of somewhat
brutal warders Tesnitch was at the time serving

he had published in the Belgrade newspapers about
King Alexander and was thus compelled TO fulhl
the duties OF a white wing, that IS 10 say, q
