LIKED THE FIGHTING APOSTLE
Name of st. Peter Appealed to Hear,
of Soldier.

IL is well known that Elias Howe
the inventor Of the sewing machine
not only enlisted as a common soldier
in the ranks of the Seventeenth Con
necticut regiment, carried a muskc;
and did full military duty during the
war, bnt at certain juneture, when
national finances were at low ebb
he paid soldiers out of his own pocket
Relative to this incident, p. r. Barnum
used to tell this story:
while Mr.. Howe was counting out
the money referred TO, stranger, who
WAS clergyman, entered the tent and
said he had heard of Mr.. Howe's lib
erality and had called 10 ask him to
contribute toward building a church
for bis congregation.
Church. church. said Mr.. Howe
without looking up from his bills he
was counting: building churches In
war times. when so much is needed to
save our country! What church Is
it?'
"'st. Peters church, replied the
clergyman.
"'Oh, ST. Peters, said Mr.. Howe;
well, st. Peter was the only fighting
apostle--he cut mans ear of. I'll

POINTS OUT DANGER IN EGGS
Should Be Cooked to Avoid Possibility
of Infection by Them.

1t has long been known that milk
may be vehicle for the diphtheria
germ, but eggs have not until recently
neen suspected of having any part in
the communication of this noisome
malady. A recent number of the Lon
don Lancet contains a startling CON-
munlcat1on from DIR. Sambon, one Of
the professors in the London School
or tropical Medicine, In which 1t Is
SHOWN that fowls as we'll as birds are
SUBJECT to diphtheria, and that eggs
oiten contain virulent germs Of this
disease and may easily be the means
or spreading the disease. The doctor
claims that he has even found active
nlphtheria germs in an egg at his own
breakfast table.
In view Of these facts, says Good
Health. 1t is apparent that eggs must
De invariably cooked to AVOID the dan
ger OF infection. Raw eggs are unQues-
uonably quite as dangerous as raw
mix, or possibly even more 30. The
egg Is doubtless much more often q
source Of serious illness than is gen.
orally supposed. A stale egg or sick
or injected egg may be the cause of
sudden nausea. vomiting and purging,
the real cause of which may not be
suspected. Certainly the egg is very
1ar from being the safe and innocent
1000 which 1t has so long enjoyed the
reputation OF being. Various species
OF germs have been found inside the
smells which were apparently fresh. 1t
Is known that germ may be picked up
and included in the egg during it's
transit along the oviduct Of the fowl
ana that germs may penetrate the egg
after 1t is laid.

Teachers Examinations.

The first seini-annual examination of
teachers for 1911 for the fourth super
vision district Lyon, Douglas, Esmer
aida, Ormsby, Storey and Washoe
counties will be held at Goldfeld, Car
son, Virginia City and Reno, beginning
Monday, January 9, 1911.
There is a constantly increasing de-
mand for teachers of scholarship and
aptitude for the rural schools. Normal
and college trained teachers are gener-
ally preferred, and musical ability is be-
coming more and more a requisite.
Young men and women having the
qualifications above stated would do well
to prepare for these examinations and
take them, as some vacancies usually
occur at the holidays; and if they should
fail then, they can try again i'll July and
be ready for the next school year.

its support really from the Rockefeller

The work of the department, direct

with the watching of the public water
supplies, the registration of deaths,
the prevalence of diseases, and the in

Another special avenue OF effort be-

establishment OF sanatoriums sufficient
in size and in number and properly
located to treat all early cases, the
actual cost of the treatment to be paid
by the patients, when able. or by the
communities from which they come.
The work is being done to save the
lives OF men and women afflicted with
this terrible disease, restore them to
