SUNFLOWER PHILOSOPHY.
(Atchison (Kan.) Globe.)

(AtchisOn kan) Globe.)
Lots of people fool around love just
as though it was not loaded. s
Any discussion in which you are not
interested seems very trivial to you.
The world is becomminS better. Only
a few people now play the mandolin.
A boys idea of hardship is to have
to wash his neck and ears every day.
A man often thinks: Il am no angel,
but I'm a pretty good sort of fellow,
after ALL
Don't worry as to the man who will
carry on your work when you die The
man will turn up all right
One way of gracefully saying that a
girl is homely is to constantly refer to
her sweet disposition.
With the possible exception of a Will
ingness to fight, you can't prove Sny-
thing by calling another liar
How nice and easy a thing is when
you hear some one tell about it, and
how difficult it afterwards turnsi out
to be.
A boy is never as much a consolation
to his mother in her sorrows as her
daughter, but he can't help it; it is
not his way

REACHING the Children.

The war against tuberculosis is go
ing on in a number of more or less Ell
|ficient ways. Perhaps the most er-
ficient of which is in the training OF
children to combat the disease. In
Chicago a school was conducted out or
doors during the month of August for
30 feeble children who come from
homes where tuberculosis had a foot
hold and who were destined to an
early death unless some means were
taken to protect them. The school
opened August Sd and of the 80 chill
dren in attendance II were in the first
stages of pulmonary tuberculosis; two
had tubercular glands and eleven
were pronounced fit candidates for the
reception of the disease; 16 had been
and ten were at the time exposed to
tuberculosis at home. Their ages
ranged from six to 10 years and all of
them had been irregular in school at
tendance in the preceding year on ac-
count of Illness They came from is
different homes in which the families
averaged seven children living in four
rooms. Only three of the children
slept alone and eight Of the families
had been or were receiving charity.
These children went to school in a
tent during the month of August and
were given every care. They were
taught to take proper exercise, to
breath deeply and to observe the rules
of clean living calculated to overcome
the disease to which they were sub
iect. The result was most gratifying
The 80 children gained 113 pounds in
weight, ranging from one to seven
pounds each. When the children were
admitted their temperature ranged
from 80 to 1872. On their departure
but two showed a temperature above
&c. while the rest were practically nor
NAL. These gratifying results have
created a desire for a permanent in
stitution of the kind, for it is seen that
these children going back to the homes
from which they came will soon lose
oil that they have gained, and it is
very likely that within the next few
years Out-Of-door schools for the chill
lren of the poor will be established in
OUR large cities The ayparimapt hoe
proven the worth Of such institutions.

sanitary officer as showing an i'm
movement over the preceding year.
The total number of admissions of
employees to hospitals and sick
camps including those sick in quar-

ing for the year 23.49 as the number
of men sick daily out of every
thousand names on the payrolls, as
against 1885 for the preceding year.
The number of deaths was $50, and
assuming that the average number
of names on the payrolls for the
various months during the year
amounted to 44,261, the number of
deaths would be equivalent to
death rate of 11.97 per thousand, as

Such bouquets as that.
