DISCOVER DISEASE
GERMS IN BUTTER
Government Tests Prove Pres.
ence Of Tubercle Bacilli
in Virulent Form.

Washington, Special: Among the ar
ticles Of human food usuat eaten in
a raw state nothing has a wider dis
tribution than butter, and next to milk
nothing fills a more important place,
Present knowledge, however, points
Enthusiastically to the fact that a large
amour Of the butter consumed daily
is infected with tubercle bacilli and
experiments, carried or by the bureau
of animal industry, at Washington,
show butter to be an ideal environment
for their preservation.
To determine how long they live and
retain their virulence, some infected
butter was prepared by the bureau ex.
pertinent station, and tested with
guinea pig inoculations. The total
number of pigs inoculated was so. OF
these, five died prematurely. Two OF
the five showed LESSONS of tuberculosis,
and three died too soon after incubation
for tuberculosis to nave developed suf.
ficiently for detection. One was killed
Intentionally, and, though affected, II
would have lived 10 days or two weeks
longer, IL permitted to live.
1aeilIi Virulent Many Days.
An examination of the time elapsed
between incubation and death Of the
"A pigs gives less evidence to show that
the bacilli in butter lose much of their
yirulence In the course Of 80 days than
positive evidence of a great variation In
the susceptibility of the pigs to tuber-
culosis infection. For example, one OF
the two pigs inoculated with butter 10
days old died after 81 days, n the
others lived twice as long. OF the two
~inoculated with butter q days old, one
died in As days and the other in la
days. Two inoculated with butter AZ
days old, one lived SO days and the
other 48 days; hat is, both succumbed
In less time than any Of the four in
oculated with butter only one day old,
Butter rs, 81 and SO days old, failed to
kill n OF the six pigs i%noculated with
II in less than 70 days.
Sunlight is the most potent. natural
agent for the sterilization of tubercle
bacilli. 1t kills them in less than al
hour when they are exposed to the
direct rays Of the sun.

tobacco in Kentucky Mountains.

Lexington, Louisville Courier-Journal.
Not only will the greatest crop of to-
bacco in history be grown in central
and northern Kentucky, which has
heretofore comprised the burly belt Of
the state, but from reports that have
reached here the mountain counties Of
eastern Kentucky, stimulated by the
high prices which the organization Of
the Burley sociey has recently secured,
will this season take up the growth Of
the weed and the creek bottoms of the
mountains will be dotted with little
patches of hurley tobacco. A resident
of this city who recently returned from
q trip through Clay and Owsley coun-
ties states hat many farmers in that
section have planted tobacco beds and
are getting ready to plant their rich
bottom lands and newly cleared hill
sides in tobacco. He says that the crop
from this new territory will this year
form no inconsiderable quantity. There
will be no danger from night riders in
that vicinity, and the planters expect
to ship their matured crops Of tobacco
to market down the creeks and rivers
by RATS and small boats to Frankfort
or Louisville for sale.

PRESSED HARD.

CoHee's Weight on Old Age.
When prominent men realize the in
furious effects of coffee and the change
in health that Postum can bring, they
are glad to lend their testimony fol
the benefit Of others.
A superintendent of public schools
in one Of the southern states says:
MY mother, since her early child
hood, was an inVeterate coffee drinker
had been troubled with her heart for q
number Of years and complained OF
that weak all over feeling and sick
stomach.
e Some time ago l was making an
official visit to a distant part Of the
country and took dinner with one of
the merchants of the place. l noticed
a somewhat peculiar flavor of the cot,
fee, and asked him concerning it. He
replied that 1t was Postum.
II was so pleased with 1t, that after
the meal was over, l bought a package
to carry home with me, and had wife
prepare some for the next meal. The
whole family were so we'll pleased
with 1t, that we discontinued coffee
and used Postum entirely.
81 had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mothers condi-
ton, but we noticed that after USING
Postum for a short time, she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use, and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches were not so frequent, and
her general condition much improved.
This continued until she was as well
and hearty as the rest of us.

Tho Proper Position for Sleeping.

From the Matin, Paris.
A number of eminent French medi-
cal men ave given their opinion on
what they consider the healthiest posi-
ton for sleep. DR.. Delorme, army
medical inspector, declares that the
natural position il to lie fiat on ones
back. Professor Debone and DR.. Dav-
eniere, of the School OF Hygiene, are of
the same opinion, and point out that
lying on either side causes pressure OF
the arm which may eventually bring
about paralysis. DR.. Landouzy, OF the
medical faculty, says that the best po-
sition Is the most comfortable position,
and this is acquired by habit. 1t would
be well, however, to accustom ones self
to sleep on the right side. DR.. Letulle,
of the Medical academy, maintains
emphatically that the sleeper should
always lie on the right side, and thus
avoid indigestion and heart troubles,
In startling contradiction comes a
statement from a heart specialist, DR.,
Hubbard: II always sleep on my left
side, and I think 1t Is quite immaterial
whether you lie on your left or right
side. The idea, however, hat those
who cannot lie on the left side suffer
from heart affection is quite erron-
eous."

Must love me in sunshine and snow:
Must be laughing and gay,
