III Health Is More Expensive Than
any Cure

This country is now filled with
people who migrate across the con-
tinent in all directions seeking that
which gold cannot buy. Nine-tenths
of them are suffering from throat
and lung trouble or chronic catarrh
resulting from neglected colds, and
spending fortunes vainly trying to
regain lost health. Could every
sufferer undo the past and cure that
first neglected cold, all this sorrow,
pain, anxiety and expense could
have been avoided. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy Is famous for its
cures of colds, and can always be
depended upon. Use it and the
more serious diseases may be avoid

COWS UNDER BAN.
Twenty-0ne Condemned to Death by
Health Inspectors.

Twenty one tuberculous cows have been
condemned to death. Eleven of them are
from one herd, near Twining City, the
remainder from three herds I'm the north
west section of the District The in
spectors have been testing individual cows
for several days and report a high per-
centage of perfectly safe cattle. They are
meeting with various kinds of receptions
from cattle owners, some of whom volun-
tarly ask for tests, while others beg to
be allowed to have their herds tested to-
ward the end of the inspection.
1t develops today that when q COW Is
declared tuberculous there is still chance
of the beef of the carcass getting into the
butcher stands. When COW reacts to
the tuberculn test, she is condemned and
then appraised at the value which two
experts put upon her. But before the
owner can collect the full value of the
appraisal he must make an effort to sell
the animal to butcher OF course. the
butcher does not know whether or not the
meat inspectors will condemn the beef.
The amount lie pays for the animal is de-
Quoted from the amount of the appraisal.
When slaughtered, some of the meat
may he put on the market il the inspec-
tors see fit. If tuberculous LESSONS ap-
pear only in the lungs, much of the meat

vEX|NC ISSUE SOLVED
PARTIES TO FRESH AIR DISPU-
TATION SEPARATED.
Secretary Maggie So Adjusts Matter
That Both Sides Are En-
tirely Satisfied.

The problem of ventilating a big office
room. containing seventy employees of
both sexes and all ages. has been
uniquely solved by Secretary Nagel of
the Department of Commerce and Labor.
Such a room with its heterogeneous COM
pound of clerical temperament. it is said.
was found in one of the bureaus of the
department located IN the annex on
Louisiana avenue. Every day the chief
was besieged by his clerks, each con-
tending for relief, as a matter of life and
death.
Ii would have been an easy matter TO
furnish the relief if only the clerks could
have in some measure agreed on the
kind desired: but that was evidently not
possible There were those who clamored
for fresh air in abundance. others who
wanted but a fair modicum of it, and
still others who did not want any under
any circumstances or in any form, unless
it could be first we'll heated.
Contentious by Partisans.
The temperature of the room. il
claimed, was either made unbearable
with heat by the closing tightly of all
windows, doors and even the transoms
that could by any possibility admit fresh
air-the anti-fresh fos-ce called 1t
"drafts"-or deathike in it's destruction
by the action of some of the younger
members of the force who would quietly
sneak open a window and let in the
ozone. The experiment was tried of hav
ing the entire force leave the room until
it could be thoroughly swept with fresh
air twice day. but the clerks who were
of a less hardy constitution than the
average turned blue after the refrigera-
ton and the room rang constantly with
the most distressing coughs and signs.
The head of the bureau was finally i'm
portuned to give the matter his attention,
and he solved the problem by asking the
installation of two electric propeller fans
of costly type. Chief Clerk Theodore
l.. Weed of the department. however,
could not see his way clear to pay ths
price. and so he invoked the aid of the
Secretary.

Charles Harper Procures Cocaine by
Forgery-Physician Accused.

Judge ,Mullowny was called upon to act
as handwriting expert in the Police
Court this morning. and upon his findings
he sent Charles Harper, alias Chick. to
the workhouse for six months in default
of $l0O fine for obtaining cocaine by
forging a physicians prescription.
Harper, who is about twenty-one years
old and lives at New Jersey avenue and
Is street northwest, testified that he had
often obtained prescription for cocaine
from DR.. J. X. Hayes of 1924 14th street.
He admitted that no was addicted to the
use of the drug. The prescriptions were

United States Attorney Baker will con

tine general impression. he will not cease
to be United States attorney at mid

brought to light an enactment Of June

attorneys hold Office until their success

This provision of law, which had been
overlooked by a number of Mr.. Baker
friends, accounts for the fact that At

.JEANES TRUSTEES MEET
FUND FOR EXTENSION OF NE
GRO RURAL SCHOOLS:
Teachers to Be Employed as Work
ers-1.600 Schools and 1872 Col
leges Benefited.

Two meetings of the members of the
board of trustees of the Jeanes fund
for the extension of rural negro schools
were held in Washington yesterday. one
being at the White House, President Taft
being a member of the board, and the
other at the District building. in Com
missioner Macfarlands office. The meet
ing in the District building was to dis
cuss a few preliminaries before the board
should meet with the President.
The Jeanes fund amounts to million of
dollars, which was left by Miss Anna L.
Jeanes of Philadelphia, to encourage the
movement for the education of negro chill
dren in the thinly populated country dis
tricts of the south. Some discussion oc-
CURED yesterday relative to asking federal
aid for the extension of the movement,
as ii was pointed out that even a million
dollars would be inadequate when it has
to cover thes large area of the southern
states.
Employment of Teachers.
At the White House it was decided that
1J2 teachers should be employed this COM
ing year, this force to be divided into
extension workers. supervisors and or
ganizers. 1t is proposed to include in the
field of activity 1900 schools and 49, col
leges during the coming year.
The board reported yesterday that the
organization had been perfected to such
an extent that all that is needed to ex-
tend the work is more money. The work
OF the teachers and organizers is to
arouse n spirit of sef-help among the
colored students of the south.
They aim to Iengthe nthe school terms
and to Introduce some industrial fea-
lures into the course of studies. In the
near future the controllers of the fund
hope to introduce ideas on home sani-
tation III the rural districts.
Members of the Board.

met with President Taft Yesterday, is

Secretary Nagle's Solution.

After wrestling with the proposition for
Il while and inspecting the room, the
Secretary cut the Gordian knot by direct
ing that the clerks he divided in two
classes. Those who liked only to be warm
and to whom fresh air-and all fresh air
to them was cold air-should be placed in
one part of the room, while those whose
lungs craved the luxury of the pure ozone,
whether it be not cold, were placed in
the other part of the room and a trans
parent glass partition was directed to be
erected between them.
Now, those who are on the ventilated
side of the glass partition wear smiles
that will not come off. because they are
happy always in having plenty of fresh
air to breathe, while those on the other
side. it is said. are Illuminated with looks
of perfect contentment because their
can keep their temperature as high as
they like at all times.

Interference With the Wireless

According to the captain of Ger man cruiser on the Pacific coast. there is too much talking in the air by wireless anateurs. The Seattle Post -Intelligencer says that on a re- cent trip he was unable to get in touch with any coast port on account of the chatter of a lot of young feI- lows who were experimenting with wireless instruments on shore He suggests that amateurs and experi- mentors be limited in sending out messages to d few specified hours in a day. and that the remainder of the time be reserved by the government authority for messages from war yes sels. ships in distress and business communications. The complaint gives hint of the tremendous activity of inventors in that direction; and that should not be entirely suppressed, though it may well be regulated. The boys who are Experimenting on their inventions may produce something worth while. but they should be pre- vented from interfering with serious business.
