n HAT insidious disease, tuberculosis,
which seems to change the natural
health conditions of victims, also
makes the question of bathing them far
from simple. Every other disease prob
ably calls for baths of some sort. Fevers,
where formerly water to drink was with
held, are now treated freely with baths,
both hot and cold.
But tuberculosis, according to Professor
Renon the noted Parisian specialist, is
a disease in which the normally healthy
bath should be administered with the
greatest caution. For instance. patients
who have fever should never be given a
bath, but simply be quickly but thor

The fur trade in this country is closely

West and Northwest. yet, in spite of the
fact that animals have for years been
hunted for their pelts, more furs are
marketed In this country than ever be-
fore. st. Louis is the chief distributing
point for raw furs in this country, which
may be surprise to many people who
think of this city as in a climate where
furs are not a necessity. But st. Louis
began this business over hundred years
ago, when it was the head of many Of
the early fur-trading companies. The furs
that reach ST. Louis come from Mani
toba, British Columbia, Athabasca the
Yukon and Alaska, as well as parts Of
The United States, and in such numbers
that in one season as many as four mil
lion dollars worth are handled.
In about the first of the nineteenth
century this city became the headquar-
