Fever.

A clinical thermometer is probably
as matter-ofcourse household con-
venience in most families as is STEP
ladder or broom; and 1t is well that
Its use and the general significance
OF its disclosures should be under
stood by those in authority; but fussi-
ness and constant resort to 1t and con-
tinual discussion of temperatures are
to be deplored
The old-fashioned way of placing the
hand upon the childs body and an
nouncing that 1t felt feverish" or
had fever" without any regard to
mathematical accuracy as to degrees
and fractions, worked just as well and
perhaps better than the new-fashioned
way, carried to nervous extreme.
AT the same time a rise of tempera-
ture always means something, and it
most decidedly means the calling in of
a physician If 1t does not go down of
itself or yield to simple remedies.
When the temperature is taken by
the mouth the thermometer should
register about ninety-eight and seven
tenths degrees, although this may vary
at different times during the day In
perfectly we'll people. When 1t reg
listers ninety-nine degrees, or ninety
nine and five-tenths degrees, the per-
son Is said to be feverish. Anything
below ninety-eight degrees Is subnor-
NAL, and anything over one hundred
and five degrees is called hyperpy-
rexia. or high fever.
In many cases a fever is a sort
of blessing In disguise. These are the
fevers caused by the toxins of bac-
teria, of which typhoid is type. The
whole system is then engaged In a
fight against the germs, and the battle
is waged to more advantage, apparent
ly, when the blood is fighting hot"
This is why. although the fever can
be beaten down by the application of
cold and the administration of drugs,
1t is often poor practice to suppress 1t
In this way. Getting the fever down

on Independence Day, and outranks
all else on that day of national pat
riotic observance, May 30.

Work is begun on the Cape Cod Ca
nal, an engineering project which has
been discussed since the days of the
Pilgrim Fathers. At its narrowest
point Cape Cod is eight miles across
and the canal will save esixty-three miles
around. The route almost follows an
old Indian portage. An attempt Is be-
ing made by the New Jersey railroads
to have the old Morris and Essex Ca
nal abandoned. Many of the old State
canals have been abandoned. The
main Pennsylvania Canal over the Al
leghanies was abandoned years ago.
There should be more water transpor-
tation. For all heavy freight like
coal, lumber, grain and ore water
transportation is more economical and
suitable than rail transportation. Re
lieving the railroads of their heaviest
freight, with low charges, would en-
able them to developt their. higher-class
freight business and their passenger
facilities. 1t would do much to pro-
mote industry, as 1t has in Germany,
France and England The Cape Cod
Canal should be the beginning of
protected saltwater route from New
England to the land of cotton.

may be a momentary satisfaction, but
1t does nothing to help cure the un.
derlying cause. 1t is as If a general
should insist upon silencing his own
guns.
At the same time the fever must be
watched and kept in check, because
this sort of fight is calling for an i'm.
mense outlay from the system, and
raging fever not only burns up bac.
terra, but 1t feeds upon tissue and
blood and all it can find, as any one
con testify who has watched or lived
through a convalescence from one.
What is true of the fever of a germ
disease is false altogether in the fever
of sunstroke. In this case the fever
is the disease. 1t Is not a regiment
OF infantry, but confiagration, and

sible, and by all the means at ones
disposal-cold baths, ice-packs, ice
water, anything that will beat 1t
down.
The character of fever is a great
assistance to diagnosis in many cases.
and this is why physician. should
always be asked to sit in Judgment
on 1t.

An automobile running along the
turnpike near Mill City, Pa, was
charged and damaged by a plucky
Guernsey bull which had broken from
his pasture and was browsing by the
roadside. In the machine were Dis

motor car curiously as 1t approached,
and when it was thirty or forty feet
away the bull beloved, lowered its
head and charged. The driver put on
the brakes, but the bull and the ma.

PAINTINGS APPEAL TO THE D1LETTANT.
BY Marcel Provost.

Painting. I believe, is getting to be the
most tempting art for the dilettant, more
tempting even than music. There are more
painters than there are musicians. writer's,
than everything else, almost. There are in
finite numbers of them. The most modest
banquet of painters reunites hundreds OF
guests. At every exposition modern paint
ings cover large area of space And what

does honor these volunteers of is the fact that
no financial bait induces the greater part of these paint
ers to follow this vocation.
In justice to these diletan of the brush 1t must be
said that many of them do not pretend that they will
gain either glory or fortune by their paintings Less
presumptuous than poets less chmerical than musi
clans, many men of talent who hang up their pictures
In salons from time to time admit that they paint for
the pleasure of painting only.
The pleasure of painting is complex. While giving
an occupation for the painters fingers painting is not
exactly thing to stir the soul of the amateur. The
amateur is not required to undertake number of COM
positions and to pick out the most difficult A faithful
reproduction of house at the edge of stream and the

The most mediocre painting has thousand times more
