TUBERCULOSIS IN THE PRISON
Per Cent. Of Suffering Is Enormous
and There Seems but One
Remedy.

From several investigations that
have been made by the National AS
ISOLATION for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis it is estimated
that on an average about is per
cent of the prison population Of the
country is afflicted with tuberculosis.
On this basis, out of the $4,000 prison
ers housed in the penal institutions
of the United States at any given
time, no less than 10000 are infected
with the disease. II the Philippine
islands and other insular possessions
were taken into consideration the
number would be much larger Some
of the prisons of Pennsylvania, Kan
sas and Ohio show such shocking con-
ditions with reference to tuberculosis
that many wardens admit that these
places of detention are death traps.
Similar conditions could be found in
almost every state, and in the major
ity Of cases the only sure remedy is
the destruction of the old buildings
and the erection of new ones.

Quaint Table Manners.

Jerome 8. McWade, the Duluth mil
lionaire. talked at a dinner about the
delights Of backwoods vacation.
II go to a quaint backwoods village
every summer" he said, land number
less are the quaint people l meet
there.
odd Boucher, for instance, the jan
flor of the village church, is most
amusing with his quaint ways. had
old Boucher to lunch one day, and
the cold lobster was served with a
mayonnaise sauce. When my servant
offered this sauce to Boucher, the old
man stuck his knife In it, took up a
little on the blade, tasted it, then
shook his head and said:
Don't choose none.'"

A Bernhardt Trick.

Nine. Sarah Bernhard, who is sup
posed to be something of an artist as
well as an actress, was recently called
upon in one CT her marvellous crea-
tons to enact. the role of a sculptor
and to model certain bust in view Of
the audience. This fairly electrified
the critics, but when going into rhap-
sodies over the technical skill in han
ding the clay which Nine. Bernhard
exhibited they showed that they knew
little of the artistic tricks of actors
and actresses; as matter of fact, she
does nothing of the kind. The bust
is modelled and baked, and over it is
placed damp clay of the same color.
This the talented actress merely pulls
off, exposing the beautifully modelled
head underneath.

A SYMPOSIUM OF SALADS.

Salads are always acceptable, espe-
cially during the hot summer weather
when meats are too heavy for the
tagging appetite.
AS dessert there is nothing more
appetizing than simple fruit salad,
and how much easier to prepare than
the indigestible pastries that SO. many
seem to think indispensable.
What could be daintier and more
appetizing than this: Arrange six or
more large Strawberries in a nest of
head lettuce. Chill and serve with
French dressing.
Plain Salad.
Put few slices of tomatoes on let
tuce leaves. sprinkle with chopped
onion and serve with French dressing.
Madison Salad.
Chop four large cucumbers. one
small onion and two. tablespoonfuls of
parsley, mix well with mayonnaise or
French dressing and stuff tomatoes
with the mixture.
Cheese Salad.
Add tablespoonful of thick cream.
a few chopped chives. a chopped
green pepper and dozen blanched
almonds chopped, to cake of cream
cheese, mix we'll and make into little
balls, roll in shredded lettuce and
serve in lettuce nests with French
dressing.
Lyman Salad.
Select long green peppers, cut in
halves lengthwise, remove the seeds
and white pulp and fill with grape
fruit pulp, celery and apple finely cut
and pecan meats, using half as much
celery and apple as grapefruit and
allowing three nut meats to each case,
Arrange on lettuce and garnish with
mayonnaise dressing

Another Tradition Exploded.

Two Englishmen were resting at the
RED Horse Inn" at Stratfordon-Avon
One of them discovered print pic
turing low tumbling building under
meath which was printed: "The House
In Which Shakespeare Was Born"
Turning to his friend in mild surprise
he pointed to the print. His friend ex-
hibited equal surprise, and called a
waiter. who assured them of the &C.
curacy of the inscription.
"Pon my word" said the observ-
ing Englishman, shaking his head du-
biously, Il thought he was born in a
anger!"-Success Magazine

Keeping Il Dry.c

An old woman of wealthy New
Jersey family was going visiting. The
coachman, who had not been in this
country long, had just been equipped
with a new uniform and new silk
hat Before they had gone far it be-
gan to sprinkle, and the old woman
told the coachman to fasten down the
side curtains of the wagonette.
He drove up to hitching post be-
side the road and, dismounting, hung
his new hat on the post, and began to
fasten the curtains.
The old woman noticed his bare head
and asked him where his hat was.
'Oi took it off me head, mum, so as
1t wouldn't get wet" the coachman re-
piled.
