Only Cure for Consumption.

With the present rapid growth Of
the anti-tuberculosis movement the
number of so-called cures" for con-
sumption is being increased almost
daily. Hundreds of quack doctors"
professors" and institutes" are ad-
vertising that they can cure consump-
ton for small amounts. with the re-
suit that thousands of dupes are year
ly cheated out of their lives as well
as their money. Besides these. cures"
and medicines of all sorts, numbering
now several hundred, are sold for the
deception of the public.
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
brands all these institutes. doctors.
professors and cures as frauds and de-
ceptions. The only cure for consump-
ton is fresh air, rest and wholesome
food.

prospects were still at sea on the out
come of the unprecedented condition
The position Of the governors friends
that they are anxious for recount, but
that a review Of the ballots must be
safeguarded against any possibility OF
unfair methods, was repeated.
Gossip in the statehouse largely hinged
through the day on the senatorial situa-
ton and the chances of Speaker Shur-
tleff becoming the successor OF Senator
Hopkins were frequently mentioned.
Many legislators and political wise
heads asserted that at the present juno
ture Speaker Shurtleff was a more gen.
eral favorite than the junior senator from
Illinois to succeed to. the toga. Others
suggested that the feeling engendeged by
the speakership fight and its many ram
ifications, together with the bitterness
stirred up by the deadlock, had preclud-
ed the possibility of a sufficient number
of legislators uniting on the speaker to
wrest the senatorship from its present
holder.
