The children of today are preaching in their homes the gospel which tomorrow shall re- ueem the nation. That lad and
 assie of fifteen who marches to- day to school proud of the essay or she has written on "The Relai- btion Of the Saloon to the Poor House Tor 'The Value, of Total Abstinance to a Life" or What IS the harm in a glass of beer."' may tomorrow be the statesman Who will wield conclusive cudgels against legalized pauper-mak king :: and the gir. who scornfualy stamps her foot at her boy friend who meets her with a cigar or ciga- rette between his lips, may be the Francis Wizard Of the surely com ing years. When shall America swing out from under the curse of the saloon, Germany compe,s all her men to learn the use of arms. America compe,s all her boys and gir.s to go to school and the w C T U has impelled the law to com pei the schools to teach temper ance and truth and who could ob- iect save the man who wants to fiji his coffers from the blood of human hearts.

Prices Should Have Reason.

Lorin F. Deland, in the April Atlantic
 It must be remembered always that it is not the price of an article which is im- portant, but the reason for the price.
 The bankrupt stock, the fire sale the manufacturer's remnants. the annual clearance, the removal sale. the dissolu- tion-of- partnership sale-what are these and many more, but arguments for the price? And note this one point: that with out the argument the price is powerless Reduce your fur-lined overcoats from s10O to s60, and your liberal discount attracts little attention. Why? Because there is no reasonable explanation for the redue- tion. Why should you present overcoats to the public? But announce that, owing to an expiration of your lease, and the imperative command that you vacate your present store within two weeks. you will reduce the price of your fur-lined over coats from s100 to $50, and you may sell easily all you have to offer. Instinctively the public sees the whole picture-the pro- prietors anxiety, the inevitable removal, the lessening days, the final sacrifice, and the store full of eager buyers quick to seize such an opportunity. This is only half the reduction previously considered; but one is business without ina gination, and the other Is business with 1t.

make the brain reel to comprehend. Tu- berculosis Is a disease that Is being cured now at great expense, and will demand millions of dollars for more far-reaching, adequate treatment and cure. Tuberculo- sis is disease that can be prevented, but only by all the people guarding reasona- bly, against the disease all the time.'
 Tuberculosis Is communicable disease. One person may catch 1t from another but only in limited ways. Scarlet fever we catch from scales, typhoid we catch from bad sewage disposal and polluted water. Measles are communicated through the air. Malaria by the bites of disease bearing mosquitoes Tuberculosis is com- municated by the germ from the consump- tiyes spit.
 How communicable is consumption? Ask a man of the last generation of what dis ease he was most afraid. He will say: Smallpox, diphtheria, typhus, cholera, scarlet fever. We stood in fear of epidem- ics." Yet what do the figures of the New York State Board of Health for 1907 show. the figures of a single state? That tuber- culosis. with 14,s06 deaths charged against 1t in the state of New York, claimed in 1907 more than twice as many victims as diphtheria (2372 deaths), typhoid Q60S deaths), scarlet fever Q029 deaths). measles (9S5 deaths), and smallpox Q0 deaths), combined.

Official records of the Colorado College weather bureau show that there are only F days a year on which the sun does not shine at some time of the day; that there are lS0 ab- solutely cloudless days, and 3oS either clear or partly cloudy. Throughout the year there is comparatively equable temperature, a minimum of precipitation and a low humidity. The year round the sun shines 70 of every 100 hours it is above the horizon. The atmosphere is absolutely aseptic and free from germ life There have been here more permanent recover ies from pulmonary complaints than in any other climate.

UNION PRINTERS HAVE FINE
 HOME AT COLORADO SPRINGS

the transfer Of the tuberculosis sanita- rum to Arizona was defeated by a de- cislve majority.
 In 1eo4 ten tents were erected near the sanitarium building, They have proven a valuable acquisition to the hospital service and their Efficiency has been so thoroughly and satisfactorily demonstrat- ed that the nGmber has recently been doubled. The experimental stage in the tent treatment of tubereulos has long since passed, and officials of the union are authority for the statement that fully 50 per cent of the patients who have had the advantage of tent life have recovered health and strength and have been en- abled again to assume their business du- ties The percentage would be higher but for the fact that too many are not sent to Colorado until they are in the last stages of the disease. Those who come here ia the earlier stages are. with the proper care and treatment. sure of q pro- langatlon of life, if not of permanent and absolute recovery.
 Colorado Springs Is an ideal site for the location of an institution such as the Ua.on Printers Home. This city, al the foot of Pikes Peak an dthe center of one most renowned scenic areas In the world, enjoys an all-the-y -year-round climate that is nearly ideal. Never too hot In summer, nor too cold In winter, with almost pes- petual sunshine, a bracing, vigorating

toll and battle in a world of labor and strife. Really to understand the work that IS being lone requires an inspection of the buildings and grounds, few hours random chat with the residents and an investigation of the methods and regula- tions enforced by the efficient manage ment Many of the printers themselves scarcely comprehend the scope and inn portance of the home, and the annual con- vention has twice been held in Colorado Springs In order to give the membership at large a broader understanding of the great Institution they are supporting.
 Of the residents, some there are who are cripples; some are blind: many are old and numbers have been eXiled with a death sentence from tuberculosis, but are slowly building up the bodies that have been wasted by disease And the hearts of all beat true to that thought of brotherhood which is placed in arching letters above the gateway to the home il this legend: The Union Printers Hone; It's Bounty Unpurehasable.
 The printer, whon he Is admitted to the home, is supposed to bring with him a certain amount of clothes. After that, everything even to a weekly pension, is furnished him.

TUBERCULOSIS IN HISTORY

From "The War on the White Death" by
 O. F. Lewis, in the Metropolitan Nigga
 zine.
 The New York State Department Of Health estimates million and half new consumptive graves dug each year throughout the world. That means annu- ally as many deaths from consumption as there are inhabitants in Munich, plus Co., penhagen, plus Marseilles. The brain reels to think of it.
 What is the cause of this most devastat- ing of all diseases?
 The ancient Greeks wondered, five cen turies before Christ, when Hippocrates wrote that "phthisis is the greatest and most cruel disease and the one that kills the greatest number of people" The Bible tells of its ravages. In Deuteronomy xxviii, 21-22 1t Is written: "The Lord shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee until He shall have consumed thee from off the land. The Lord shall smite thee with a consumption and with fever and with an Inflammation and with an extreme burning" If one is asked where the first case came from, one can reply, Where did the first man come from?' If one be- lieves In our simian ancestry, it may seem to him significant that monkeys are espe- cially susceptible to tuberculosis.
 Today a phrase echoes in the larger cities from the Atlantic to the Pacific: '.Tuberculosis is communicable, curable. preventable.'
 Fifty years ago that phrase was not known. Then the phrase, like a death sentence, rang: Consumption is deadly There is no known curei' Today this new. phrase. this 2Oth century phrase, Huber culosis Is q communicable, curable. pre- ventable disease" Is the text for three articles in the Metropolitan Magazine In a far wider significance that sentence means this: tuberculosis Is disease, the extent and cost of whose ravages

cry cent of this, with the exception of the Childs- Drexel gift and the income from the Julia A. Ladd endowment of sl000, has been contributed by the printers them selves.
 Not only has the Union Printers Home proven to the world a splendid example of what can be accomplished by har monious cooperation. but 1t has been to ether labor unions and and fraternal Dr. ganizations an inspiration because of It's humanitarian features. It has been the pioneer institution in it's field and has be- come the model from which other copy ideas and methods. The Modern Wood men of America have only recently opened their sanitarium north of Colorado Springs, while the National Association Of Letter Carriers has selected that city as the site for their home. number of other organizations are considering the plan and In many cases it has been an investigation of the Union Printers Home that has decided their committees to roc ommend the building of such an institu- ton.
 Figures may tell part of the story of the Union Printers Home. But 1t Is not sufficient to know that the property, which stands on a commanding eminence east of Colorado Springs, is today valued at s1,000,000, when 20 years ago this tract was barren prairie land which could nave been bought up for a few dollars an acre; or to learn that there are now six buildings of the grounds. the main build ing, the tuberculosis sanitarium. the su- perintendents cottage, the laundry. heat ing plant and barns, besides the s3O000 ad- dition. the beginning of which has just been authorized by the trustees It is not enough to know how these 80 acres have been reclaimed from barren wastes until they form one of the garden spots of the continent; nor to be told that In all, more than 1000 have been admitted to res- idence since 1892, that the average num- Der at any one time Is 145, and that the average cost per resident is s33 a month this sum covering all ordinary expenses in connection with the property.
 It is far more significant to learn how this home has been so managed that 1t has become indeed . sanitarium, where the sick may sojourn for time to build up, in Coiorado's health-giving climate, their broken constitutions and restore lost strength and vitality, a haven where the aged and inf1rm may retreat to a peaceful closing of a life that has been spent in
