 .In surrendering the commission con- ferred upon me by the electorate of the state, I wish to express my keen ap- preeiation of the honors which they have conferred upon me in the past.
 For more than 16 years I have served the people of the state with a conscious ness of fidelity to duty as one of their judicial officers. and it is with deep re- gret that I retire from their service, and especially do I feel keenly the parting with my associates on the bench.
 But for personal reasons founded upon a conviction of duty to my family and myself, l have, after mature eonsidera- tion, reached the conclusion that l should retire to private life. I will therefore, in the future engage in the practice of my profession, and to this end will be associated with the law firm of Messrs

 By their gentle qualities they control benefiicially bowel action and stop diar- rhoea and constipation.
 Bad breath simply cannot exist when charcoal is used. There are no ifs or ands about this statement. Don't take our word for it. but look into the matter yourself Ask your druggist or physi- clan. or better still. look up charcoal in your encyclopedia. The beauty of Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges is that the highest pharmaceutical expert knowledge obtainable has been used to prepare a lozenge that will give to man the best form of charcoal for use.

TUBERCULOSIS NOTES.
The Fight Against Consumption All
 Over the World.

According to a report issued recently by the local government board of London, the number of deaths from tuberculosis in England and Scotland has decreased by one-thord in the last 50 years, falling from 54,91S in 1853 to Ss.746 during the past year, while the death rate per 10- 900 of population has fallen more than one-half. or from 29.S to 11.5. In Ireland. on the contrary, the death rate per 10000 has increased in 40 years from "A to 27. Dr. Arthur Newsholme attributes the de- crease in the mortality from consump- ton in England to effective segregation and institutional treatment of the ad- vanced cases of the disease, which are known to be the centers of infection and spread of tuberculosis. The Irish medical authorities attribute the increase in the amount of tuberculosis to a combina- ton of poor housing, insufficient ana un- nourishing food, bad sanitation, especial ly in the schools, and the large Irish emigration.
 Dr. Maurice Fishberg is authority for the statement that the number of deaths from tuberculosis among the Jew is from
 one-third that observed among the non
 Jewish population around them and rv-
 ing in the same urban environment. Dr.
 Fishberg attributes this remarkaD.e vi-
 tality of the Jews. and their immunity
 to sickness in general, to the fact that
 they have been for over 2000 years dwell ling in the city and are thus able to
 withstand more than their neighbors. As a means of checking tuberculosis in the principal cities of Brazil. the sanitary authorities of that country have insti- tuted a campaign involving the expendi- ture of s1,250.000. The project includes the compulsory reporting of every case of tuberculosis, the establishment of hos
 pitals. agricultural colonies. and sani- toriums.
 Nine deaths from tuberculosis were caused during the last year in the depart
 ment of finance of New York city, due, it is claimed, largely to infection from the books and papers. After one of the book
 keepers in the department died recently at his work from a hemorrhage caused
 by consumption, the city health authori- ties closed the office and made a thor ough fumigation of the books and prem fses.

least one billion dollars in money every year.
 Very few people use more than small percentage of their lung capacity, fact which tends to produce consumption, espe- cially in school children.
 The negro mortality from tuberculosis in the United States is about 150 per cent greater than that of the white people.
 Tuberculosis is much less common among coal miners than among other classes of people. According to the United tSates census statistics, miners and quarrymen occupy third place in the scale of least tuberculosis mortality only bankers and farmers being more im- mune.
