Typhoid Cut Down.

The publication of the states drink
ing water is large task and will take
many years, but already the improve
ments have cut the typhoid death rate
In half. In 1906. 565 out of every 100,-
900 people died from this disease; in
1907, sos; in 1908, 344, and In 1863,
f39. That is there are now living
1868 people who, had the death rate OF
1906 prevailed in 1909, would have
died.
l believe enough has been said to
convince you that Pennsylvania's clti
Eeps have been made richer in health
happiness and Industrial vigor and the
state rendered more attractive, both
for residential and manufacturing pur'
poses and for the mere JOY of life, by

You cannot capitalize human tears

You cannot estimate in dollars the

You cannot compute even the prin
cipal of the debt laid upon individuals
communities or states by the mora
delinquencies that result absolutely
from physical suffering alone.
But we can rejoice when we know
beyond all doubt that in every yeal
untimely death has been shut out o
more than 5000 of our homes and tha
at least $4,000 of our people are an

application, can secure free all the
anti-toxin he needs to effect a cure.
Since October, 1905, the Health De-
partment has in this way distributed
a9,44S packages of anti-toxin. It has
treated 1929 sick people, mostly chill
dren, who, but for the states inter
vention. would have been neglected. In
the old days about 10000 Of these chill
dren would have died; as matter OF
fact. only 1925 died. Nearly all those
who died were children who did not
receive the anti-toxin until the late
stages of the disease. The detailed
statistics of the department show that
the earlier the sick child receives the
anti.toxin, the greater his chances or
recovery. These facts should empha.
size the pressing need, in all cases,
not only of anti-toxin treatment, but
of this treatment at the earliest pos
sible time. The department has also
thoroughly tested the powers Of anti
toxin as an immunizing agent. Diph-
iberia, as every one knows, is one OF
the most Virulently contagious dlS-
eases. 1t travels like lightning from
the sick to the well. In the crowded
homes of the poor, many Of them ideal
culture tubes for the growth of the
microbes, its virulence is especially
marked. The department In three
years has immunized with anti-toxin
1t,537 persons, nearly all children
who had been exposed to the disease,
or these only 251 acquired it-a little
more than one per cent. The State
Department of Health's free distribu-
tion of antitoxin to the poor, there
fore, has saved over 5000 lives at an
average cost of seven dollars each and
prevented contagion in several thou
sands of cases at on average cost OF
two dollars.

Life at Mont Alto.

This, however, is only one depart.
ment of this lfe-saving work. Any one
who wishes a graphic idea of the
states sanatorium work should visit
the tuberculosis colony at Mont Alto
Here, at an elevation of 1900 feet
above the sea, amid the breeze swept
mountain pines. he will find nearly
800 men, women and children, under
the care of physicians and nurses,
bravely seeking to combat the disease
in the fresh air and sunshine. Labor
ntory Investigations have many times
proved that the tubercle bacillus, once
exposed to the light and air, shrivels
up like a guilty thing and perishes;
and the state, in this unique sanator-
ium, is giving its tuberculous poor
their one great chance of overcoming
! the disease. This Mont Alto site is sit
uated in the midst of state forest

FOREMAN STEWART CLEARED
 IN CITRUS TREE CASE
A Statement by Or. Merrill of the
 Horticultural Commission.

Justice Parker gave his decision in the case of the horticultural commis- sion against ]. H. Flemings's foreman. Frank Stewart, yesterday afternoon at l:3o. dismissing the defendant Re viewing the case Justice Parker stated that the evidence showed that three ears of trees consigned to MT Elem ing was received at Phoenix on or about the first of April These three cars were inspected by officers of the commission and released fourth car reached Phoenix on or about April and was inspected throughout the day found to be infested by mealy bugs to greater ar less extent but no decision reached as to it's disposi- ton, the announcement to Mir Elem ing that it could not be released being made the next day. Sometime there after an agreement was made by Mir. Fleming with the commission to plant the trees under quarantine and in con nection with this arrangement Mir. Flaming was to pay the extra expenses giving the entomolosist of the com mission his note for s425.0O to cover these expenses. The court ruled therefore that Mir Fleming having made this agreement with the com mission as evidenced by the note and having planted the trees was entitled to protect them and that Mir Stewart was acting properly in making the re- sistence.
 Concerning the decision Dr Morrill, who was seen last night by Repub- lican reporter stated that it had no eff feet on the status of the infested shipment of trees nort planted at flemings ranch The decision" he said, was based on a misunderstand-

Where shall l begin my answer?
With common sense, it seems to me.
with the warning that neither drugs
nor nostrums will promote either
healthful or beautifying sleep; with
advice TO these two women. and to
all others who suffer In similar
way. TO look first to Nature for the
cure of this great ill.,
The healthy body Is the one that
knows the great boon of sleep as a
matter of course. so II the soft un-
consciousness that "knits up the raw
eled sleeve OF care is denied you, you
may be sure that something is wrong
with the casket that holds your rest
less spirit. Are your habits of life
regular, reasonable. which is to say.
hygienic? Are the hours for your
meals prompt, is the food itself well
cooked and of a digestible and nour-
ishing sort? Do you drink plenty of
water-qute three pints day are
ecessary-breathe deeply, sleep in a
well-ventilated room, exercise out
doors and void the bowels at least
once thoroughly in every "a hours?
All of these things, and more like
unto them-the warm bath that
cleanses the skin and soothes the
nerves. for instance-are necessary
for the body's we'll being.
In short, sensible and regular habits
of life constitute the first and really
only sure cure for sleeplessness.
which is the sensitive temperament's
way of showing that something IS
wrong. Two weeks of regular living
alone would put the worst nerves in
something like order. so unless wom-
an is desperately i'll in some other
way. there is no excuse for her not
sleeping. Drugs are out of the ques-
tfon for the ordinary case of sleep

cording to the dictates Of Nature for
wakefulness and sleep to come at their
right times and to be good and
wholesome and beautifying.
Let me take up the matter Of out
door exercise. The fresh air SO
stored up in the lungs Is in itself
soporific, in that the new oxygen
freshens the blood and starts up a
more healthy action of the heart.
Then the tramp outdoors lifts the
mind to a higher plane, the troubled
spirit, which inherits the memory that
once all humankind lived outdoors, is
pacified. The deep breathing is life
itself, and If the mind Is fixed upon

ing done it IS even possible to alb
