GOOD WORK IS PROGRESSING
Women In Every state Join Earnestly
In Campaign Against Tu-
berculosIs.

Four years ago the only active wom-
en- workers in the anti-tuberculosis
movement were a little group Of about
80 women's clubs. Today 100000
women, under the United States, are
banded together against this disease,
and more than 1000 clubs are taking
a special interest in the crusade. Not
less than 100000 is raised annually
by them for tuberculosis work, be-
sides millions that are secured through
their efforts in state and municipal
appropriations. Mrs. Rufus P. VIII
liams is the chairman of the depart
ment that directs this work In adj
dition to the work of the General Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs, the Public
Health Education committee of the

Mississippi Boat Crews.

Gambling among their employees is
usually frowned upon by employers,
but there is notable exception to
this rule" G. A. Trainer of New Or
leans was saying to companion in
the lobby of the New Willard.
IF it were not for the gambling
habit some of the big boats Of the
Mississippi river trade would be minus
their crews at the end of trip.
The negro deckhand is an inveterate
gambler. He will shoot craps for
any amount of money he has. Some
of the captains begin paying off when
the boat is half day away from the
last stop. AS soon as the hands get
their pay most of them begin to roll
the bones Little groups will be
formed, and pretty soon one man in
each group has all the money. Then
the big, winners get together for a
game with higher stakes. AS a result
of this process by the time the boat
reaches the wharf few men have
almost all the payroll They don't
want to work, but the others, who
are cleaned out, are obliged to- Con
sequently the boat has crew for the
return trip" Washington Post.

NOTABLE ENGINEERING FEAT

Recently a notable piece of engi-
neering work was achieved in San
Francisco. while the demolition Of the
old city hall was in progress. Be-
tween the violent earthquake and the
fearful fire of April, 1906, the building
was practically reduced to a mass of
ruins. So it was determined to raze
the shattered structure and construct
new and modern hall
Surmounting the lofty dome huge
statue of the Goddess of Liberty has
perched for more than twenty years
past. The statue escaped unscathed
both the heavy shock and fire. This
immense metal statue is nearly TWEEN
ty feet in height, and, with the pedes-
tai, to which 1t is firmly attached,
weighs about three tons From the
ground up to the pedestal the distance
is about $50 feet, and to the apex of
tie Goddess, is $40 feet.
AS it was very much desired to
take down the huge statue undam-
aged and to place it in Golden Gate
park, as public souvenir of the great
disaster, the contracting firm under
took to bring it to earth without dam
age. This proved difficult and peril
GUS feat in engineering, for to bring
down, unchanged. 5000 pounds of
metal from height of $40 feet was
ponderous task. However, the work
was done very successfully. BY means
of system of derricks, steel cables,
tackle, etc, operated by several
donkey engines, the big statue was
loosened from its firm anchorage on
the dome's crest, and gradually low
cred to the earth. The work was done
without the slightest accident to the
statue, or to the force of men engaged
in the task. Engineers declare that
it is notable feat along engineering
lines. at least of that kind, and the
contractors are being warmly congrat-
ulated over the success achieved.

Through the activity of women, in
the anti-tuberculosis campaign, sana-
toria and hospitals for the treatment
of tuberculosis have been erected;
travelling libraries have been circu-
lated, posters, circulars and other
kinds of literature have been distrib-
nted to the number of millions of
pieces, thousands of lectures have
been given, large sums of money have
been secured, hundreds of needy cases
have been helped; tuberculosis work
has been started in many commune
ties where no movement had existed;
and millions of women have learned
the dangers and methods Of proven
ton of tuberculosis. The work of the
women extends from the drawing room
of the rich to the homes of the poor,
and embraces all classes, including the
factory girl and millionaire. During
the coming year special campaign of
lectures to women will be carried on
in all parts of the United States.

MARRIAGE AFTER DEATH

The marriage is reported of two
dead lovers from the Japanese village
of Shizuoka. A young couple fell in
love, and sought their parents sane
ton to their union. For some reason
this was withheld in the case of the
girl, and the broken-hearted couple
resolved to commit shinju rather than
be separated.
The two embarked on fishing boat
and when some distance from the
shore bound themselves together with
cloth brought with them for the pur-
and the matter was communicated to
pose, and threw themselves into the
sea. The following morning the
couple were missed from their homes,
the police. Later on the bodies of the
young couple we're washed ashore,
and, after the official examination,
delivered to the parents. On learning
of the tragedy, the mayor of the vii
lage was much affected, and calling
upon the bereaved parents, proposed
that the wedding ceremony be per-
formed over the dead bodies, so that
the deceased might be united in the
other world. The parents agreed.

No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and I'M
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such a record
of cures of female ills as has Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, Irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
1t costs but little to try Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and,
as Mrs. Barclay says, it is worth noun
fains of gold " to suffering women.

insects are subject to, said:

as proof that concentrated nicotine
