kept out of their narrow, over-crowded
tenements? How is pure, vitalizing air
to be given the unfortunates attacked
by the mortal disease or about to be-
come its hopeless victims? How, 1
ask, are all these beings to be saved
who, without fresh air cures, are
doomed to the contamination of their
surroundings and to certain death, I'M
less they can be treated in sanatoria
or in special hospitals?
The only remedy for all these evils
is to open a sufficient number of day
sanatoria, of Erholungstatte, as has
been done in Germany, institutions
which require infinitely smaller sums
for their construction, fnstallment and
maintenance than ordinary sanatoria,
and may be set up in three months,
ready to give refuge to many consump-
tipes and candidates for tuberculosis
These cure stations, patterned on
the Erholungstatte, render such serv-
ice that the description of those at Ber-
lin-the first to be cannot
fail to interest all benevolent persons
alive to their public duties and desir-
ing by service or donations to help
found similar places.

90 farmers eat the proper sort of foodf
The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
It's good thing that this is so because
he has a great variety to select from.
He should. however. use great care
In selecting for the best results in
health and strength
The widespread tendency in the city
to increase the amount of Quaker Oats
eaten is due very largely to the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor.
Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase
the quantity of Quaker Oats eaten by
themselves, their children and the
farm hands.

of money in this work. In the public
homes and hospitals where tubercular
patients are received the food given
them is abundant and of the best
quality. They are likely to be much
less liberal in these matters abroad.
Then, again, you go at these things
with SO much energy and intelligence
that it is easy to understand your sue
cess. 1 had the pleasure of pointing
this out to the president in discussing
the situation. 1 said 1 found the
Americans SO liberal. so enthusiastic
and energetic in their charities. The
president shook my hand very cordial
ly and said: You have guessed the
truth, and few foreigners do so. We
are a nation of idealists.' And 1 can
readily believe SO.
Europe has much to learn from
America in this war on tuberculosis. 1t
needs something of your energy, your
sympathy for the work and your iber-
ality. In return Europe has some
| things to teach America. If your great
work could be better organized and di-
rected your energy and money, it
seems to me, could be made to do more
effective work. 1 hope to be of some
service in bringing about this friendly
| interchange of ideas.
Sociological Disease.
But besides hygienic laws there are
other factors which, aiming to better
the living conditions of the laboring
classes, necessarily help also in the
combat against tuberculosis, for no one
today disputes the fact that tubercu-
losis is sociological disease, an
assessment, as it were, paid to the en-
vironment of physiological and moral
misery. 1t is essential, therefore, to at
tack the conditions pertaining to this
state of misery. In no other country
is duty to humanity as well understood
as in the United States, and nowhere
has it called forth more generous in
itiative. In no other country is the dig
nifty of humanity so highly respected
and the individual so effectually sue
cored. Everything is done to disarm
the worst eventualities of fortune and
help the wretched. l have felt myself
drawn into this humane contest from
a desire to second the efforts of those
who, knowing that pure air is one of
the best means of attack against tuber-
culosis, would give New York fresh air
cures.
ITO accomplish this what is more
simple than to make known what
have seen, admired and studied in Ger
many, and especially in Berlin, where
the fresh air cures do invaluable serv-
ice and are considered as among the
best weapons in the arsenal of those
institutions which constitute the Ger
man armament anti-tuberculeux?'
Necessity for Day Sanatoria.
THE example given by Germany
should encourage the United States to
follow her in those methods which she
has opened up to the whole world and
which experience proves to be irrefuta-
bly, efficacious.

att was in 1899 that the idea Of
fresh air cure was conceived by two
young doctors of Berlin, Drs. Rudolf
Lennhoff and Becher, both connected
with polyclinics where tubercular pa
tients in particular were treated. Con-
cerned for some time with the lOdg-
ment of laborers' households, they de-
cided to make an inspection and in

Here are the practical conclusions
of his report. Only a portion of tu-

sanatoria; the greater number must
remain in their own homes. They are
advised to live as much as possible in
the open air, and with this object in

they must continue to breathe the city
air. In order to afford them opportunity

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

My little son, when about a year
and a half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. I had a physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then I
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and a half of suffering he grew
SO bad that I had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.

a new method must be devised. There

attained and the means to be en-
ployed were recapitulated.
The fresh air cure for men was
ready to open in May, 1900, about one
kilometer by railroad from the city.

TOURING GAR TEST TO
SETTLE SPEED QUESTION
Trophy Offered for Any Fifty
Horse Power Machine Max
ing Mile a Minute

"Can any touring car on the market
today, rated at fifty-horSe power or
less, make a mile a minute under or
dinary touring conditions and carrying
four passengers?" is the rather peril
nent question to be decided during
the running of the national champion
ship track races, May 30, on the Indian
apolis motor speedway under the sane
tion and direction of the contest board
of the A. A. A.
You have often heard motorists say:
while we were running along at the
rate of about sixty or siXty-fiVe miles
an hour" and then, without SO much
as giving you time to absorb slight
portion of the meaning of such bold
assertion, they would race right along
with a hair-raising automobile yarn
which would fairly hold you glued to
attention.
During the Chicago automobile show
last winter. the directors of the A. A.
A. gathered for a quarterly meeting
President Lewis r. Speare Chairman
A G. Batchelder of the executive COM
mittee. and John A. Wilson of Frank
lin, Pa, in discussing the championship
racing, hit upon the advisablity OF
holding one event in the championship
series for fully equipped touring cars,
carrying four passengers. SuCh a race
had never been held. but Mr.. Wilson
colleagues in the association that there
was not a touring car built which
would travel sixty miles an hour on
perfectly level road under average
touring conditions and carrying four
passengers and regular equipment.
Mr.. Wilson, who has for years driven
what he considers an exceptionally fast
touring car. geared to two and one-half
to one. said he was so positive that no
50-horse power car could make mile
minute under touring conditions he was
willing to offer a trophy for race. lie
was taken at his word. and event No.
A. the last event of the championship
races 10 be held at Indianapolis, will
decide the question.
This test will be interesting not only
on account of the extreme novelty of
witnessing touring cars racing with
complement of passengers, sitting up
right, but the results of this event
should effectually block large guam
tity Of wild advertising which has
lately been the vogue among some
makers.

ART OF CHOOSING TIRES
PUZZLES MANY AUT0ISTS
Styles and Rims Differ and Mo-
torist Must Suit Self

Just how to describe the particular
car is a question that puzzles many
motorst. Now that most car owners
are fitting out for the season with new
tires, demountable rims, etc, the sug-
gestion from the Firestone Tire and
Rubber company that we publish the
following information seems opportune:
The Regular Clincher tire has a
pliable base or bead and fits the
one piece clincher rim. All tires larger
than three-inch require staybolts
otherwise known as lugs) to anchor
the tire safely in the rim.
The Quick Detachable Clincher tire
has a stiff base and is fitted with flap
to protect inner tube and prevent tire
from creeping. This tire is used on
quick detachable rims having remoY-
able clincher side-locking-rin No
staybolts required.
The Quick Detachable Gable Base
tire, variously known as the straight
side or straight-bead has wire cables
embedded in it's base, making the bead
rigid and non-elastic. This tire fits
quick detachable rims using side-lock-
ing-rings, whose inner edges are either
straight or curved outWardly, instead
of being clincher shape. No staybots
required.
The Clincher Demountable rim car
ries one piece clincher rims and regu-
lar clincher tires. Requires a series
of special short-stem staybots.
The Quick Detachable Demountable
rim carries quick detachable clincher
rims and tires. 1t combines the al
ready inflated tire feature with the
facilities for quick replacement of tires
on the loose rims afforded by the quick
detachable rim. No staybolts are used.
