MEET IN CONGRESS AT ROME
international Gathering of Foes Of I'll
bercuIosIs to Be Held Late in
September.

Official announcement of the Seventh
International Congress on Tuberculo-
sis, which will include representatives
from every civilized country in the
world, has been made by the National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis. The congress
will be held in Rome from September
"a to 30, 1911, and will be similar in
many respects to that held in Wash
ington in the fall Of 1908. The o
gress, which meets every three years.
will be under the direct patronage Of
the king and queen Of Italy.
An American committee Of 100 will
be appointed as the official represen-
tatives of the United States. Mean
while the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
is acting in that capacity and its Office
in New York will be the headquarters
for the United States delegation. The
secretary general Of the congress is
Prof. Vittorio Ascoli Of Rome.
AS a direct result Of the stimulus Of
the last international congress held in
this country, the American committee
will be able to report that the number
of tuberculosis agencies in this coun-
try have been tripled in the three
years. More than twice as much
money is being spent in the fight
against tuberculosis by private socie-
ties and institutions, and the appropri-
atoms of federal, state, municipal and
county have increased nearly four
fold. 1t is estimated that nearly $751;
000,0 900 will be spent in anti-tuberculo-
sis work in 1910.

How nicely little Cecil sits
And eats his Cake in careful Bits
A Warning, John. to you,
Whose Mouth Is filled with Beef and
Egg.
The Remnants of a Turkeys Leg,
And half a dumping. too.
It really makes me feel quite hurt
To see the Way that you Insert
Your Fingers In the Dish;
Such Mouthfuls. too. have ceased to be
Since Prophet Jonah Marv'lously
Was swallowed by the Fish.
Pray from the Joint remove your Fist.
And do not stubbornly persist
Good tanners to offend.
Some Day you'll choke upon a Slice.
Or suffocate from too much rice,
And that will be your End.

UNIQUE GAME WITH LETTERS

Now" said Charlie, when every

one at once
"It's very easy" replied Charlie,

"Bravo!" cried uncles and aunts
and cousins, as Charlie finished read

You see," continued Charlie, you
may give the players five minutes, or
any time you agree ON beforehand, to
make up the sentence. When the
time is up, the sentences are read and
the one having the longest sentence
Of good, plain, commonplace English

this way for each of the five vowels,

gained the most points wins the
