''RISE"OUTOFEGAN
Secretary of State Board of
Health Comes Back at
Local Physicians.
ON BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS
Suggests That County Association
Members Are Not Up to Date
on the Subject.

The Rock Island County Medical So
ciety, by its action at the meeting last
week, has gotten a rise out of
James Egan, secretary of the state
state board of health In resolution
adopted by the local body the state Of
fetal was criticized for advocating that
there was no danger to man from bo-
vine tuberculosis. when, as the reso-
lutions stated, the majority of the med
ical profession was inclined to take
the opposite view.
DR.. Egan comes back by intimating
that the members of the Rock Island
county association are not up to the
times on this particular topic. He is
quoted in a Springfield dispatch as fol-
lows:
Il am sincere in my belief that
there is little likelihood of mans con
tracing tuberculosis from the cows
which supply him with milk. Frankly.
l am at loss to conceive how any

physician who has given this subject
careful consideration, and who has
kept in touch with the most recent lit
erature and Investigations Of the day
can fail to agree with me.
Scientists Not Alarmed.
Without going into particulars as
to the various Investigations along this
line which may be obtained by all in
terested physicians. l will say not only
that the danger of a spread of tu6er-
culosis through dairies alarms scien-
fists scarcely at all, but that the great
est agency for the communication of
the disease is not curbed as rigorous
ly as it might be, and presents today
a far greater menace than all the in
fected diaries that may be discovered
from time to time.
Il refer TO the promiscuous splitting
by persons suffering from tuberculosis
The greatest authorities are agreed
that man is the chief danger to man,
and that the sputum of the consump
tive plays the most important part in
the dissemination of the bacilli of the
disease.
Attention I'm Wrong Direction.
We should pay more attention to-
men suffering with tuberculosis than to
cows. as they are a greater menace.
The salient fact in the general crusade
against tuberculosis is summed up in
the cry: No spit; no consumption;
The principal reason for deprecating
the spread of alarm in the mind of the
public as regards the dangers of tuber-
culosis in milk is that this hue and cry
has tended to divert attention from
the one essential and all important
truth. that the spitters must be re-
strained at all costs"

The amusement building was a one

The building was unoccupied Ad-

None OF the patients or attendants

DR.. Taylor, however, happened to be
at the hospital Saturday night He i'm
mediately notified the state board of
control of the loss. All of the state in

Just how the fire started is a mys-
terry. The building is heated from the
main plant, which is located in sepa-
rate building. The officials declare
there was no possibility of flames orig
mating from crossed electric wires.
The theory is that one of the patients
or attendants threw a lighted cigar IN
some part of the building Saturday and
that it came in contact with some com
bustible material and smoldered until
it finally took root in the flooring.
There were 70 patients in the hydro
pathic building. When the fire was

PREVENTION OF FLOODS.
OycrfIoWs in Missouri Have Cost
Farmer. SIi, 200, 900 in : Years

One of the most prolific sources
of loss and damage to the farmers
of Missouri has been the annual
floods OF its large rivers, which
overflow their banks every spring
and ravage the most fertile lands in
the state. According to the figures
compiled by the state labor bureau,
these losses from floods have reach
ed the enormous sum of $4,000, 900
in the last seven years alone. Ac-
cording to the estimates of the
United States engineers less than
one-seventh of this sum would be
sufficient not only TO riprap the
banks and build levees high enough
to keep the Missouri River within It's
banks during the entire year, but
TO establish siX-foot channel from
Kansas City to its mouth. However,
the vital interest of the farmers lies
in safeguarding their lands from
overflow. 1t is probable that the
money included in the engineers es-
Inmates for channel construction
would be amply sufficient to cover
the Usage, Gasconade and other
rivers in the state.
At any rate the fact has been al
ready demonstrated that the annual
losses by floods are greater than the
amount required to secure perman-
entity the lands from overflow. This

FREE If 1T FAILS.
Your Money Back If You Are Not
Satisfied with the Medicine
We Recommend.

We are so positive that our rem
edy will permanently relieve consti-
patton, no matter how chronic it
may be, that we offer to furnish the
medicine at our expense should it
fail to produce satisfactory results.
1t is worse than useless to at
tempt to cure constipation with
cathartic drugs. Laxatives or cath
artics do much harm. They cause a
reaction, irritate and weaken the
bowels and tend to make constipa-
ton more chronic. Besides, their use
becomes a habit that is dangerous.
Constipation is caused by a weak
ness of the nerves and muscles of
the large intestine or descending col
on. To expect permanent relief you
must therefore tone up and strength
en- these organs and restore them to
healthier activity.
The discovery of the active prin-
ciple of our remedy involved the la
Dor of the worlds greatest research

sesses the valuable qualities of the
best known intestinal tonics as we'll
as being particularly pleasant and
prompt in its results.
We want you to Try Rexall Order
lies on our recommendation. They
are exceedingly pleasant to take, be-
ing eaten like candy, and are ideal
for children, delicate persons and old
folks, as well as for the robust. They
act directly on the nerves and mus
cles of the bowels. They apparently
have a neutral action on other assoc
ciate organs or glands. They do not
purge, cause excessive lOOseness nor
create any inconvenience whatever.
They may be taken at 6 time, day

PETTY GRAFT AND BIG GRAFT.

The charge that the customs SER
vice. particularly in New York, is
permeated with petty graft that in
the aggregate amounts to a big
swindIe is shocking in the extreme
to a self-respecting country If this
charge is true, then the sugar-weigh-
ing scandal is only an incident in the
whole shameful system by which the
government is cheated in some in
stances and importers are fleeced in
others. says the Kansas City Star.
Bur in spite of the discouraging de-
cisions of Justice Holt in several Of
these cases, there is reason to be-
lieve that the customs service will
be cleaused of this infamy especial
ly as the importers show a DISPOSE
ton TO cooperate with the govern
ment in the prosecutions.
This petty graft, which has been
carried on by a number of customs
officials, is an example of the de-
basing and demoralizing effect Of
the whole system, but il is inconse-
quential, from the material point Of
view. as compared with the colossal
graft sanctioned by the protective
tariff. In every instance in which
an industry or product is given
tariff protection that it does not need
to enable It to compete with foreign
producers, and where this protection
