Light on Cause of Tuberculosis.

The sixth annual meeting of the Ma
tionaI Association for the Study n
Prevention of tuberculosis was held
in Washington on May 2 and 3. Among
the most interesting papers was one
by DR.. William H. Park, the famous
~pathoIogist and head of the labOra-
tories of the New York city depart
ment of health. Doctor Park COntended
that pulmonary tuberculosis is very
rarely, if ever, caused by infection
from bovine sources, such as the
drinking of milk or the eating of meat.
tuberculosis of the stomach and inter-
nal organs, which compose only about
ten per cent. of the sickness from
this disease. are often caused by drink
ing or eating infected matter Doctor
Park substantiated his conclusions by
showing the results of years of inveS-
tigatiOn and examination of PATHOLOGY
cal specimens. His conclusions are
substantially those reached by DR..
Robert Koch, the ~discOverer of the tu-
berCulOSiS bacillus.

The marriage Of Marie Norfield and

girl without a word of explanation.
AS for Anthony, he was too proud
to ask for one. The two drifted
apart.
Morton consoled himself with the

youth who hid occupied a niche In
the young woman's affections some
time before Anthony had gained her
consent for an early marriage.
The curious of Drakeville-and there
were many Of them-found little TO

Each was cordial to the other, and at
the little parties given weekly by their
set, danced occasionally together.
Wayne Haskell was a brilliant
youth with an enviable future before
him. He was a young M. d. Just
from college. but popular.
Anthony Morton was an architect.
and while Drakeyille's need OF Archl

young fellow with the determined

Then she turned on the electric cur

Rohrbacher continued his state ment by saying that Globe would De the logical place for the location of the capitol owing to the excel lent railroad facilities. evidently having in mind the palatial box cal service Of the little Gila Valley road that would turn up It's toes and die in dismay if ever confront ed with the problem Of hauling th, Bowie to Globe within a week
