If pupil is i'll, or associates in his own

Warned in Eight Languages.

The death of young Hungarian girl
who was overcome by gas on the first
night she stayed at a new place at
Caldwell, N. j., recently, has caused the
Mountainside hospital managers of
Montclair to issue warnings in eight
languages relating to the proper meth
cd of turning off the gas.
These warnings are printed on card,
and will be placed in the rooms of SER
want girls throughout Montclair, YER
ona Glen Ridge, Caldwell. Bloomfield,
and other towns that send patients to
the Mountainside hospital. The warn
ing as printed in English, says:
1.-THE burning gas must not be blown
out, only turned off, so that the key
stands crosswise with the pipe; other
wise the escaping gas will cause death
The warnings in the other languages
are headed: German, "Warnung;" I"
Swedish, Warming" Hungarian, Fig
yelem;" Polish, "zwazenie;" Norwe-
gian. "Advarsel;" Bohemian, "Ctete;' -
Slavonian, "Citajte."
The adoption of the warnings by the
hospital managers was inspired by
Harold Van Wart, II years old, of Cald-
we'll who was stricken with sorrow
over the tragedy of the girls death, and
prepared the text in the various Ian
guages, which he submitted to the hos
pita1 managers.-New York Times.

FOR CLEAN SCHOOL ROOMS.

In the war which is going to be
waged from now on against the spread
of tuberculosis, with the stamping out
entirely of this dread disease as the
ultimate end, large factor in it ought
to be the activity of the school authori-
ties in not only providing all the school
buildings with a system for the most
complete ventilation of the school
rooms but also in keeping the school
roms scrupulously clean and free from
any collections of dust and dirt.
A step in this direction that is at
tracing nation wide interest has been
taken by Robert L. Cooley, principal
of a public school Of IA rooms at Mil
waukee, Wis. On his own initiative
he interested the parents of the pu-
pills Of this school in the question and
raised funds with which he equipped
the school building with a vacuum air
cleaning plant which is most eff1cacious
in cleaning each of the school rooms
most thoroughly every day.
Principal Cooley prepared a paper
on the subject recently which is de-
manding the attention of the tubercu-
losis experts and which was printed
not long ago in the Milwaukee Senti-
mel A couple of pertinent paragraphs
from 1t read:

These words Of the text which are from
one of the letters of the famous apos-
tie, Paul, convey the idea of a predica-
ment which confronts many in the
course of their lives. They tell of a
condition among people that is to be
fought against most strenuously.
People in civilized communities, who
have had the advantages of even the
merest sort of an education, generally
know the right from the wrong in all
things. Even those who have not been
favored with any education whatso-
ever have the same knowledge, because
1t is almost instructive with human be-
ings. 1t is most reasonable too, to say
that almost every one, unless he be
perverted in mind and soul-and in
which class there is fortunately not a
great number when compared with
the whole of humanity-has a desire
to do the things which are just and
right. 1t is, indeed. an almost inherent
impulse to do the things which are
equitable and honest to all, and to
oneself as we'll. But there are also
agencies for evil at work. They sue
ceed quite often in making negative
the good intentions with the result that
wrong acts are committed There is
the disposition to do right but when
the mind and body come to act the
wrong way may be chosen for one rea-
son or another.
In discussing this subject further
Paul points out and explains this trou-
blesome plight by saying: Now if 1
do that 1 would not. it is no more that
I do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I
find then law, that. when I would do
good evil is present with me. For I
delight in the law of God after the
inward man: But I see another law in
my members, warning against the law
of my mind, and bringing me into cap
tivity to the law of sin which is in my
members"
As Paul later points out, the lesson
Is plain. 1t is ones duty to fight and
fight hard, with a firm belief in God
and the right and with the aid that
this gives, fight the sin, the evil that
is ever pressing one to do the things
which he knows to be wrong, and which
he really desires not to do.

"Then you think 1 will never be an

Hartley shook his head, and she turned
away to the window, pressing her brow
to the cool pane, against which the
sleet ratified angrily.
For several minutes she stood thus
looking out into the whirling snow and
hail with unseeing eyes, while Hartley
silently watched her.
He would have given the world to
take her in his arms and comfort her,
but instinctively he realized that she
must fight her battle alone. She was
and yet he dared not speak.
At last she turned, and now her eyes
were smiling, though her lips still were

said, with a wan little smile, but,

A VICTORIOUS CoMpRoSrrsE.

Confession of it's guilt of violating
the laws Of Kansas is found in the
willingness of the International Har-
vester company, the trust that con-
trolls the manufacture and sale of
most of the desirable farm ifnple-
ments of the country, to compromise
the civil suit which was started to
oust it from doing business in Kan
sas. This company has been convict
ed criminally in the state for doing
business on an improper basis and
will have to pay fine of $4,000 on
this count. Under these circumstances
the civil suit would be almost sure
to go against 1t. The compromise pro-
posed involves payment of the COM
pany of an agreement that it will not
make any more Exclusive contracts
in this state. To offset this the state
is to withdraw it's custer suit.
This compromise will accomplish
practically what Fred s. Jackson, the
states attorney general, had in mind
when he brought the custer suit. 1t
was the exclusive contract feature
of the Harvester trusts method of
doing business that was particularly
Objectionable. The compromise can
be entered into by Mr. Jackson and the
supreme court of the state with all
honor and with realization that the
state has won great victory over one
of the most powerful trusts of the ma
ton. The fact that it will not be nee
essary now to press the custer suit
and drive the trust from doing busi-
ness in the state is also a good thing.
This company controls patents on
many serviceable farm implements
which are not put on the market
through any other source. If the cor
poration had been forbidden to do
business in the state the Kansas far
mers might have been handicapped
by not being able to secure such farm
machinery as they might need. This
would have been an unfortunate con-
dition of affairs. Under the COM
promise, the International Harvester
company will be able to do business
in the state but it will have to do it on
an equal footing with the other farm
implement manufacturers. This is all
Harvester trust should ever have ask
ed for and its officers made a griev-
Gus mistake by trying to control the
Kansas implement market in refusing
to make anything but exclusive con-
tracts" with the retail implement
dealers from handling any other class
of implement products except those
made or controlled by the trust.
