Get Out of Doors.

Trudeau's classic experiment points
us in the right direction. After inoc-
ulating a number Of rabbits with tn,
berculosis he confined number OF
them indoors and turned the others
outdoors The latter all recovered,
while the former all died. This exper-
iment shows that rabbit living upon
its natural food and under q natural
environment Is proof against tubercu-
losis. There is abundant reason to be-
lieve this equally true Of man. In
ether words, tuberculosis is not nec-
essary evil Of human life, but Is nat
ural consequence Of erroneous habits
and departure from natural conditions.
Man Is naturally an outdoor animal.
A mole lives healthy life In bur-
row. A man must live In the fresh air
and the sunshine.-Medical Record.

Sim Anderson, a Fort Valley, Ga, ne
gro, has been lynched for playing "peep-
ing Tom" He was seen peeping into
the bedroom Of Miss Lena Brown, daugh-
ter of a wealthy planter. The CIR
screamed and he ran. The sheriff and
his deputies pursued him and caught him
Saturday night. AS the officers were
taking him to jail they were overpowered
by mob of fifty men. The mob tied
the officers so they could not interfere
and then hanged the negro TO a tree by
the roadside. On the negro'S breast was
pinned a placard bearing the inscription
"Let this be a warning TO all black peep
ers."

The Age of Concrete.

Nowhere else in the world has house
building of wood been so general as in
the United States. The abundance of all
the sorts OF timber most suitable for the
purpose has made such building cheap;
and capable architects have developed in
this country style of wood construction
not less characteristic than the buildings
of Switzerland or Norway, and more
comfortable and convenient.
But the age of wood is passing away.
Every year the supply of lumber dimin-
isheS and the price rises. A substitute is
is necessary and has apparently been
found in concrete. Already used freely
for engineering works and great factory
or business buildings, it is no less ser
viceable for the small Westinghouse and
garage. Nearly five million barrels OF
cement are used year on the Panama
Canal. The great irrigation dams OF the
West, the vladuct which carries the rail-
road across the Florida Keys, the immense
stadium OF Harvard University are all OF
concrete. Moreover, next month is to
see the first of the houses which Mr.. Ed
ison declares he can build of concrete for
twelve hundred dollars.
In Italy they have even built boats OF
concrete, barges of hundred tons burden
which float perfectly and are much less
liable to injury than boats of woods or
even steel
The enthusiasts tell us that we are on
the threshold OF an cage OF concrete"
the durability, the resistance to fire, the
artistic possibilities and the increasing
cheapness OF the material make the pre-
diction reasonable. The growth of the
industry in this country is certainly re-
markable. Twenty years ago scarcely
any Portland cement was made here.
The little that was needed was all I'M
ported. To-day America makes over
sixty million barrels ayear, and the pro-
duction increases by ten million barrels
annually.
