ternal appearance Is usually on the
back of the hands in the form Of rash,
usually copper or red in color. 1t next
appears on the feet or lower limbs,
and then spreads to the forehead. In
it's final and fatal stage it attacks
the nervous system, and it is here
that it's effects are terrible. Its ac-
ton begins with the spinal chord and
extends to other parts of the system
gradually. 1t is the common saying
that patients who have pellagra forget
how to laugh. The patient gradually
gives up. Weakness and debility
set in and the sufferer loses flesh ra-
pidly. The eyes lose their luster, the
shoulders become stopped and tha
entire body loses its life and cleo.

velops, ard the victim de'eriorates
bit by bit until death comes from to-
tai exhaustion.
The disease is especially frequent
among chickens. The case in hand
now appears to have developed from
a drove of chickens that must have
been afflicted with the malay. The
chickens eat the corn in its natu1 al
state and hence catch the disease
easily. Cooking, however, does not de-
strov the toxine which composes the
poison. In this case the chickens
died in droves. and the boy could have
caught the disease by handling one
of the affected birds and eating al
terward without washing his hands.

BIG AND SMALL
CHEAT WITH SHORT MEAS
UREs AND WEIGHTS, SAYS
EXPERT.
''izzy of indianapolis" Benefactor of
His City, First Forced Standard
Oil Company to Give Full
Measure in its Can Trade.

NEW YORK, July 14.-"Izzy of In
dianapolis" has found that some $780, !
100000 year is being lifted from the
Metropolitan pocket by stealth.
'Izzy of Indianapolis" is Isidore
Wulfson. chief inspector of weights |
and measures for the Hoosier city. |
The name comes to him from the In
dianapolis News as a mark of esteem
and affection.
Mr.. Wulfson is one of the most
strenuous and interesting characters
of the Middle West He has made
record for the establishment of cor
rect system of weights and measures
in his own city and started out by
compelling the Standard Oil Company
| of Indiana and its smaller subsidiaries
| to give full measure in the can trade
| oh, no, not beer.
Having thus uplifted the morals of
Mr.. Rockefeller's oil trust he went to
the Haymarket, one of the chief marts
of Indianapolis.
There he found it essential to dis
guise himself as peddler, and in this
disguise he found that the people of
his city city were being fleeced an
nually of many thousands of dollars.
He remedied the condition and is pop
ular. He goes today to his home.
Last night speaking of his observa-
lions here, he said:
l am convinced that the city of
New York is locing more than 10,0o0,-
600 a year through the failure on the
part of the people to appreciate the
necessity for a proper maintenance of
department of weights and measures
that will cover the city.
You have any number of dealers
who sell for ton Of coal, hundred
pounds Of &c, a quart Of anything tina,
is used in the home and each of the
other departments of human econom!
much less than the proper weight ant
measure requires, and much less thar
we get from a thorough system o.
inspection.
This is not the fault of your inspec
ton department. 1t is too small ant
there is no adequate appropriation fol
it. 1t does as well as might be ex
pected from such small beginning.
But the general system of weights
and measures in New York is of sucl
a character as gives the greatest pos
sible opportunity for the dealer to ge
the maximum of price for the mini
mum of value. There is only one wa,
to get the proper weight and measur
system, and that is to make a rigi,
inspection and hold every dealer il
every line strictly responsible for wha
he sells and how he sells it.
Il wish that you would not put m
n the light of making any criticisr
of your own department but if I ca
serve the greatest city in the world b
by calling attention to the little leak
that are costing the great mass of you
people money I shall be happy to d
that.
THE press of New York can
: more in the way of remedying thi
trouble than all the other element
combined. 1t is class of reform the
