The Death Dice.

The German emperor some time ago
presented to the Hohenzollern museum
the "death dice" with which one OF his
ancestors decided a difficult case in the
seventeenth century. The history OF
these dice is generally given as follows:
A young girl had been murdered. SuS-
picion fell upon two young soldiers,
Ralph and Alfred, who were suffers for
her hand. They both denied their guilt,
and even torture failed TO extract con-
fession from either.
Then Elector Friedrich William decid-
ed TO cut the knot by means of the dice
box. The two soldiers should throw for
their lives and the loser should be exc
cuted as the murderer.
The event was celebrated with great
Solemnity. Ralph had the first chance
and threw skies, the highest pssSible
number. The dice box was then given
to Alfred. He fell on his knees and
prayed. Then he rose to his feet and
threw the dice with such force that one
OF them was broken. The whole one
showed six, the broken one also showed
six on the larger portion, and the frag
ment split off showed one. This was a
total of thirteen, one beyond Ralph'S
throw. The audience held its breath in
amaZement.
"God has spokenI" cried the prince.
Ralph, appalled, by what he regarded
as a sign from heaven, confessed his
guilt and was sentenced TO death.

Nav Prevent Consumption.

The State Board of Health in PennSyl-
wanna has just completed experiments in
preventing tuberculosis which, II IS
claimed, will in time stamp out the dis
ease, which is carrying off 10000 per-
SONS annually. The announcement OF
this discovery was made by DR.. s. o..
Dixon, OF Philadelphia, State Commis-
sioner OF Health, at banquet in Nc
KeeSport. DR.. Dixon was slated for an
address. but before beginning he said he
had little surprise for the physicians
there gathered, and it was in the shape OF
an announcement that sure preventive
for tuberculosis had been found. The
State Board OF Health is now working
hard on the principle that the same pre-
ventive may be used as a cure also for
cases partly developed. This, however,
has not yet been assured.
DR.. Dixon said he was not yet at lib
erty to give out the secrets OF prepara-
ton which, he said, would be used to in
oculate both sexes when quite young.
DR.. Dixon said the authorities at Harris
burg had been working on the process
for several years and that the first prin-
ciple involved was The discovery OF an
obscure country doctor.
The State Commissioner will ask the
State Of Pennsylvania for large appro-
priation to be used in the erection OF an
institution where the discovery can be
applied.

The Wind and Our Nerves.

The east winds hug the earth more
closely and gather moisture, dust and
bacteria. They are cold and humid, alto
gether forming all enervating influence
on human and animal life, and rendering
it susceptible TO the disease germs which
the winds carry and disseminate.
The cool, pure northwest winds come
from region of dry, highly electrified air
where ozone exists in comparatively
large quantities. They are inyigorating.
The framework of nerves in the human
being is like a delicate electrical appa-
ratuS, the nerves being the wires and the
brain and gangia receiving and diStribu-
ting CenterS.
Every one knows that a telephone
works better on a clear, dry day than on
a wet, muggy one. The moist atmoS-
phere lessons vitality. The nerve wires
grow flaccid and heavy. The messages
become confused. Hence low spirits,
meIanchoia, distorted mental outlook,
faulty assimilation, and disease.
The opposite effects flow from the
northwest winds. The west and north
west winds keep the mucous membranes
of the body in good working order. The
coating Of moisture which is always pres
ent with the east winds disappears. Alb
Sence OF any wind if long continued has
a bad effect on the human body and mind.
A prolonged calm means lack OF venti-
lation on great scale. The winds serve
to mix in normal proportions the gases
which compose the atmosphere, and in
this way they are conducive to health up
to a certain point. Beyond about twenty
miles an hour their influence begins TO
be unfavorable.

Mind Your Teeth.

A man is known by the teeth he keeps.
The worst thing that can happen TO our
teeth is for them not to have enough TO do.
II is the worst thing that can happen to
us also. Spintualized and cultured as
we have become, we still fight the battle
of life with our teeth, though we no long
er chew our enemies ears or throatS.
Bone cored, enamel coated and rock rib
bed as the hills, our teeth are more ao-
Solutely under our control than almost
any other structure OF the body Neglect
them and they decay at once. Give them
proper attention and they will go on re-
pairing themselves for forty, fifty, sixty
years.
Give children plenty OF roughening food
TO chew, and they will get the peariy yigor
ofthe savage tooth with the endurance OF
the CalcaSian'S. Above all, the food
should be OF such character as 10 give
exercise and massage TO the gums. Part
OF this can be given by plenty OF coarse
food in addition TO real food-not as a
substitute for it-and part by intentional
and vigorous friction with the toothbrush.
To brush the gums well is half the value
of brushing the teeth.
Keep the mouth and gums strictly clean
and the teeth will take care Of themselves.
There are thirty-three distinct named and
labeled sorts of bacilli or bugs in our
mouths as normal parlor boarders, but
they'll behave with perfect propriety un-
less you give them carrion to get drunk
or.-Dr. Woods Hutchinson.

Railroad Accidents.

An interesting statement OF facts from
the railroad history of the year ending
June 30, 1909, was issued by the Inter
state Commerce Commission few days
ago. II is the abstract of the CommiS-
Sion'S 22nd annual statistical report.
II shows single track railway mileage
OF 36,S6S, an increase OF 3,2l5 miles.
The equipment OF the railroads included
57,2l2 locomotives and the number OF
cars OF all classes were 2,2lS.&.
The total uumbes OF casualties to per-
sons on the railways was l04, ,3+S OF
which s, 723repreSented the number killed,
and 5,626 the number injured. The num-
Der of passengers killed was 253 and the
number injured was l0,3ll. In the year
previous 3Sl passengers were killed and
II 500 injured. Among railroad men the
casualties were trainmen, | .3+5 killed,
29, lis injured; switch tenders, crossing
tenders and watchmen, 90 killed, 5O7 in
jured; other employees LIB killed, 49,
81 injured.
The figures show that one employe in
every $40 was killed and one employe in
every twenty was injured. Among train
men, engineers, firemen, conductors and
other trainmen, il appears that one was
killed for 2O5 employed, and one was in
jured for every nine employees.
One passenger was killed tor every
1888, 600, carried, and one injured for
every SO, ,45S carried.
The total number OF persons reported
on the pay roll was SOP, ,733, or an av-
erage of 63S per hundred miles OF road.
The par value OF railroad stock now
outstanding, according TO the returns OF
the companies having 10 report TO the
commission was Sl7, ,4S7, ,36S, ,935. Ofthis
amount Sl2, III ,S67, ,733, was in the hands
OF the public representing capitalization
Of $59, $50 per mile OF line. The number
of passengers carried during the year was
Sql, Az. .525 and the number OF tons OF
freight hauled was l,956, 1914. The
average receipt per passenger per mile
was | .92S cents. The operating revenues
of the railways were 2,4l0,6H,53S and
their operating expenses 81 ,599, ,443.

Five Great Structures.

ACtiug Secretary OF the Treasury Hills
has announced the designation OF D. H.
Burnham & Co., of Chicago, as architects
Of the new local postoffice building which
is to be erected on the plot of ground i'm
mediately west of Union Station, at a
cost of 100000 Congress has already
appropriated the money, and the archi-
tectS will at once work ont the plans in
detail.
The structure will be monumental in
design and will harmonic with the arch
itecture CT the new station, which was
designed by the same architects. When
the new postoffice is completed it will
look like a continuation OF the station
The two structures will represent cost
OF Sl5,OOO,OOO.
During the recent session OF Congress
provision was made by law for the acqui-
Sition OF the ground between the Capitol
and the station, and the Capitol grounds
will extend all the way 10 the portals OF
the station. A broad boulevard will be
constructed, extending from the present
west fountain in front OF the station TO
the Peace Monument in front OF the
Capitol. About II city blocks will be
used in this improvement. The Peace
Monument will probably be removed so
that the new statue to General Grant,
which stands in the Botanical Garden
facing the Capitol, will be visible in the
vista along this proposed new boulevard
from the front doors OF the station.
Between this boulevard and North Capt.
tol street, from the end OF which the great
white dome of the Capital looms, there
will be a large section OF ground laid out
in landscape gardens. This will make
this group Of buildings probably the
finest in the world.
Plans have been completed for the, ,S,-
100000 building for the Bureau OF En-
craving and Printing There will be
erected within The next lew years group
OF buildings on the five blocks bordered
by Fourteeth, Fifteenth, B street and
Pennsylvania avenue, for whichthe ground
has been secured. This group will con-
tain building for the Department OF JUS
tice, which now occupies rented quarters,
another for the Department of Commerce
and Labor, also in rented quarters, and
the third for the Department of State,
which is cramped in its present quarters
at the south end of the War and Navy
Department Building.
The competition for plans will probably
be the greatest architectural contest the
country has ever witnessed. The build
ingS will cost $8,OOO,OOO

A Hungarian count, seeing that they
were Swiss citizens, began to queS-
ton them about the government. After
commenting on the fact that the country
is guided by a council of seven, called
the federal council, the Hungarian said:
"But you have never had President
from the French part OF Switzerland, have
you?"
ooh, yes" answered Frey and Bren-
ner, indicating Ruffy. "Here he is. !"
Great astonishment on the part OF the
Hungarian nobleman. When he had re-
covered he said
every interesting, very interesting.
Then suppose you are the only ex-
President in Switzerland ?"
"Oh, no, laughed Brenner and Rutfy,
pointing to Frey. "Here'S another
one -
Surprise of the Hungarian, mixed with
suspicion. Finally, after much thought,
he ventured:
"And who is the actual President OF
Switzerland ?"
"Why, Brenner here, "roared Frey and
Ruffy, and the Hungarian count, much al
fronted, arose and left the compartment,
thinking himself the victim OF a Swiss
Joke.

As we came nearer, they all saluted us,
and we stopped to chat. 1t was re-
markable trio. The handsome gray
haired, gray bearded man was Mr.. Emil
Frey, once minister from Switzerland to
Washington, afterward President Of
Switzerland, and now chief of the In
ternationalen Telegraphen Bureau"
One OF the others, Mr.. Ruffey, was al
so once President, and is now chief OF
the international Postal Bureau.
The third, the one with the small
pointed beard and the very marked BaS-
Ter accent, was Mr.. Brenner, the present
President of Switzerland. AS we stood
there talking, now and then maneuvering
and side-stepping out of the way Of the
passing sledders, they told us a funny
thing that had happened to them in TIE
train on their way up to Grindelwald.

THE SIMPLE SWISS LIFE.
BY ETHEL THERESA HUGLI-CAMP

Simplicity is the keynote OF Switzer-
land. This was never SO clearly borne in
upon me as one afternoon last week uP
in Grindelwald. We had just come down
into the village from an all-day's tour on
the Busenalp. Such as were feminine OF
the party had on knee-high skirts, heavy
leggings, and boots with pointed hob
nails. The men were in heavy tweedS,
with puttees. We all had pointed canes.
AS we tramped-clumped would be
better word, up the principal street Of the
village, we saw three gentlemen mincing
down the middle of the road. They had
no irons on their shoes, and they simply
had to mince, as all the roads in and
around Grindelwald are worn CLASSY by
SledS.

Grindelwald was filled with English
people, Coasting-or, as they call it, "to-
bogganning," on those high little Grin
delwald sIeds, and calling out with great
vehemence, "Achtung" which CORE
spends to "fore" in golf Lots of them
skated, the girls in the pointed Grindel-
wald hood of all colors that is SO becom-
ing and coquettish, with short skirts to
match. The Scotch element stuck to
curling on the ice. But the favorite sport
seemed to be skiing, and the snow fields
all around were scored and zig-zagged
and crows-footed with their tracks.
