landscape having at the bottom in the
foreground a brook.
The bottom OF the tank is covered
with gravel, and set in the water Is
suitable vegetation sufficient to please
the eye and to keep the water aerated,
and then of course there are the fishes.
and when you have it thus stocked
you hang this aquarium up on the wall
to have the effect of a picture with
fishes swimming around in 1t.

says the day is to be the holiday OF
the Americanized Italians in Missouri.
Many people have an idea," Damico
said, that because Columbus sailed In
Spanish ships he was a Spaniard. We
want them to know that Columbus was
a genuine Italian of Milano, and that
we claim him as a countryman. We

have floats Of various kinds that will

Water.

Are you forgetting to drink the
proper amount Of water every day?
Do you drink two glasses before
breakfast?
You should.
But by all that is hygienic do not
take your water until your mouth has
been rinsed with an antiseptic and
your teeth thoroughly cleansed.
People who know tell us that an
acid forms during the night in the
mouth and around the teeth. This acid
will decay the teeth. therefore com.

the stomach; 1t certainly should not
be washed down there deliberately
anyway.

Denver.-With over 1000 people Wis
iting the tuberculosis exhibit Tuesday.
and with every seat taken at the lee
lures at night, the members OF the
State Association for the Prevention
and Cure of tuberculosis feel much
encouraged at the attitude of the peO-
pie toward the campaign of education
as to the disease. which is being in
augurated.
The talks Tuesday night were OF
special interest to nurses and there
were at least 100 of the white-capped
soroity present. DIR. E. w. Stevens
presided. and addresses were made by
DIR. J. n. Hall. DR.. Eleanor Lawney.
Mass Morse. head nurse at the Agnes
Memorial sanatorium: Miss Ayres.
secretary Of the state board OF exam
iners for nurses, and DIR. II. A. Flynn.
Miss Morse spoke on the fear OF in
fection from contact with the disease
which is so prevalent among the peo-
pie. She said that even highly trained
nurses were not devoid of this fear.
because they had not studied the ques-
ton. No one need fear to enter any
hospital or sanitarium for the treat
ment OF tuberculosis. which is prop
erly operated. she said. and cited sta.
tistics to show that in the great con-
sumption hospitals of the world there
had not been a single case OF n nurse
or attendant contracting the disease
through working or living among the
ccnsumptives.
Miss Ayres made an instructive ad-
dress directed to nurses in which she
outlined the proper way to take care
OF consumptive patient at home.
The firs, thing. she said. was to teach
the family the way of prevention, by
insisting on proper disposal OF the
sputum where IL could do no harm.
The dishes should be boiled for TWEEN
ty minutes after use. and special care
should be taken to keep the hands and
the mouth and teeth of the patient
clean.
DIR. Fynn's address was from the
standpoint OF dentist. He quoted
authorities to show that many dan
