l may get it soon. Very gratefully yours.
The national association calls attention
to the fact that, according to this letter,
one life at least has already been lost
on account of ignorance of the proper
methods OF treatment and prevention of
tuberculosis, and another member of the
family has been infected by the careless
ness of the former consumptive.
With the present rapid growth OF the
anti-tuberculosis movement the number Of
so-called cures" for consumption is being
increased almost daily. Hundreds OF
quack doctors" professors and 'lnstl-
tutes" are advertising that they can cure
consumption for small amounts, with the
result that thousands of dupes are yearly
cheated out of their lives as well as their
money, Besides these, cures" and medi-
cincs Of all sorts, numbering now several
hundred, are sold for the deception Of the
public.
The national association brands all OF
these Institutes, doctors. professors and
cures as frauds and receptions. The only
cure for consumption is fresh air, rest and
wholesome food.

National Association.

A pathetic illustration OF the way In
which the public is being deceived by
quack cures for consumption is found In
a letter received recently by the National
Association for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis.
The letter came from a woman in the
mountains of western Maryland, and was
addressed as follows:
Postmaster, Jersey City, n. J.-win you
please give this letter to the man who
called out trains in Jersey City two years
ago last February 8, in the afternoon.
The letter was referred by the postmaster
Of Jersey City to the National Association
for the Study and Prevention Of Tubercu-
losis. 1t reads:
Dear Sir: / want to find the man who
cured himself OF consumption by using oil
man, his wife. two children and mother
who missed connection and had to wait all
afternoon for a train. You told my son
and myself OF your cure. I remember part
OF the directions, which was: Take one
drop the first day, two drops the second
day, and so on till II went up to thirty
drops. Now / want TO know what to do
when the thirty drops have been reached.
Does the directions say to continue the
thirty drops each day or go back to one
will be very grateful II you will write
me the full directions and send me as soon
as possible. My son lived only six weeks
after We got home. He did not try the
=. I felt he was too near gone Now I
have a daughter who is In need OF help,
and wants to try II, Hope YOU will get
this letter. But II you should not, and
II falls in the hands OF anyone who knows
OF the treatment, will please answer this.

clerical and laborer force of the capitol.
An adjournment was taken at 1:52 p. m,
Taft Likes New Bill.
President Taft expressed himself today as
pleased with the tariff bill as agreed to by
the conferees last night. 1t is known he is
conferees last evening. 1t is known he is
not entirely satisfied with all of the bill
and he told several of his callers that 1t
would be a miracle if a tariff bill could be
designed that would please everybody.
The president said there were a great
many things about the bill that he was
delighted to have a part in and he would
be equally delighted to sign and defend
the measure in it's finished state,
President Taft made it plain that he
was invited into the conference before he
attempted to give the advice which finally
brought about a settlement of the coutro-
verted points. In addition to inviting the
views OF the president the conferees went
so far as to take votes on certain sched-
ules, the decision thus reached to stand
only in the event of its meeting the pres
ident's approval.
Better Than DinEIey Law.
Without attempting to go into the de-
kaAAo " III +tNAAAAE ia
versy the president today declared that
in a great many ways the new tariff law
would be a marked Improvement over the
Dingley act.
The president pointed out as great for
ward steps the enactment of the Philip
pine tariff, the corporation tax, the estab-
of the new maximum and minimum pro-
visions, establishment of a commission to
advise the president I'm the operation OF
the maximum and minimum clause and on
the matters generally connected with the
tariff.
AS to the corporation tax the president
let it plainly be known that while he was
in favor Of such a tax he was not SO
wrapped up in it that he was willing to
sacrifice real down revision just to nave
it adopted as a part of the tariff bill.
While the corporation tax was adopted as
in the nature of a substitute for the in
come tax, the president declared today that
the end attained in submitting to the
states the proposition for an amendment
to the constitution permitting the enact
mem Of an income tax law was one Of the
triumphs OF the present tariff fight. No
constitutional amendment has been sub
mitted to the states since the days Of the
civil war.

from 500, 600, 900 TO 5000, 900, 900.
A large number Of other provisions that are
in force under the existing tariff law are
included in the conference bill with q few
changes in phraseology in several cases.
The drawback provision Of the Dingley
law is incorporated in the conference bill
in lieu of the drawback of the house bill
which intended to permit the Substitution
of domestic material in the manufactured
article for export to the same quantity
that the imported material, upon which a
was obtainable, was used in the
manufacture of similar articles for domes-
tic consumption. An additional provision
was adopted emitting users Of domestic
alcohol in the manufacture Of perfumery
and cosmetics to secure a drawback OF In
ternal revenue tax to the amount Of alcohol
used in an exported article.

Tax on Communion Earnings.

Tax en- Corporation Earnings.
Every corporation, joint stock company
or association organized for profit and
every insurance company is required to
pay annually an excise tax of 1 per cent
upon it's entire net income over and above
1000. This feature was put into the bill
to raise additional revenues to apply on
the treasury deficit. The section was pre-
pared by Attorney General Wickersham,
assisted by other able lawyers in the ad-
ministrative circle and great care was
taken to guard against double taxation.
1t provides a form of publicity which will
enable the government TO exercise super
vision over corporations. The form of re-
turns which must be made by corporations
and other features of the corporation tax
law were made public in detail during it's
consideration in the senate. 1t is estimated
that from $40, 900, 900 to $50, 900, 900 a year will
be collected under this new form of fed
eral taxation.
The secretary of the treasury is author
lied to issue Panama canal bonds to the
amount of 1920, SOS, 900, which sum together
with that already expended equals the es-
timated cost of the Panama canal. 1t is not
intended that the bonds shall be issued ex-
cept as needed to provide money to carry
on the work of canal construction. The
bonds are to be payable fifty years from
the date Of issue and will bear interest at
a rate not exceeding 3 per cent. When the
bonds are sold the secretary Of the treas
ury will restore TO the working balance
the $50, OOO, 900 paid originally for the canal
property and the canal zone.

USEFUL DESERT rLASA


so<ots once Thought Worthiosa
Found TO ne Full of Alcohol.
Another wild desert plant that grows
profusely upon many millions OF acres
of land In the mountainous region Of
western Texas now is being used as a
profitable source Of revenue. says the
Kansas City Star. 1t is the sotol.
which is said to be found In no other
part OF the United States. 1t is OF
quick, sturdy growth. 1t long has been
known that alcohol could be made from
this plant, but it Is only within the last
few months that steps have been taken
to utilize this knowledge in a CONNER.
cial way by the manufacture of dena,
tured alcohol from the large bulb which
forms part OF the growth. This bulb
Is situated Just above the ground and
frequently is foot in diameter. The
percentage Of alcohol which It contains
is said to be larger than In any other
known product.
1t was not until In the last session OF
Congress that authority was granted
for the manufacture of denatured alco-
hol from the sotol plant AS result
OF this Federal permission. sotol dis
ullery has been established at FL Paso
and large shipments of the sotol bulb
are being made from the Alpine section
to that place for conversion into the
denatured product.
When the early Spanish explorers
first penetrated the region along the
Rio Grande River below Alpine, more
than two centuries ago. they found that
the Pueblo and other Indian tribes had
knowledge of the alcoholic properties
Of the sotol plant. Primitive stills were
In operation from which fiery white
liquor was obtained The Indians were
wont to indulge freely in this native
intoxicant The sotol liquor still is a
favorite beverage among the Mexicans
Of the border. The American cowboy
OF this region has an intimate knowl-
edge Of the fighting" qualities of this
liquor. 1t is one OF the phases Of ini-
tiation which the tenderfoot is always
put through upon the border ranches.
The main objection to the stuff is
that you've got to run mile to get
your breath after you have taken a
drink of It," said cowboy the other
day.
