oSLER ON TUBERCULOSIS
Certain That Disease Will Be Stamped
Out-New Sanatorium.

London July 2.-The certainty that the
scourge of consumption would be ultimately
stamped out was emphasized by Profess
sor Osler, at oxford, at the recent open
ing of a new wing of the Maitland Sana-
forum labor colony at Peppard Common
near Henley.
The sanatorium is designed for industrial
classes, and much of the work on the new
buildings has been executed by patients.
They were particularly keen on erecting
a hall for Swedish drill, concerts and lect-
ures.
The Bishop Of oxford strongly commend
ed the labor colony
Professor Osler said that consumption
would certainly be stamped out 1t might
be stamped out very quickly, for all the
essential knowledge had been possessed
for ten or fifteen years. If the riddance
took fifty or a hundred years it would
be only because man was the stUpidest Of
the animals

MORE GARRIsONS IN EGYPT
British Detachments To Be Sent to
Four Disafected Points.

London, July at is reported from
Cairo that in consequence of the strained
feeling between the Moslems and Copts
it has been decided 10 station detachments
Of British troops in the provinces. Tanta,
Zagazig, Assiout and Guergeh are the
centres mentioned.
The former two are hotbeds of Moslem
fanaticism, and the latter two towns
are the headquarters of the Copts. In
all four districts the state of affairs has
of late given cause for great anxiety. In
no case will it be necessary to detail
large force; few companies, with one
or two quick-fring guns, will suffice.

strongly condemned the effeminacy and
self-indulgences which. he declared. pre-

What we need perhaps more than any
thing else ct the present day" he said.
''is breed of hardy men. I am sorry to
say it is rather significant that at this
very moment when we have most need OF
hardy race. there seems to be setting in a
spirit of softness, slackness, self-indui-
gence and laziness.
so far as l can discern, our public
schools are being invaded in the most dan
gerous shape by the tender solicitude of
mothers for their darling boys. / hope
that the masters and the council of Rossall
will keep 1t at bay
THE standard of living which is gen.
orally pursued at the universities is almost
grotesque. and I hope that the boys who
go to the universities from Rossall will
take there a healthy contempt for over
eating. overdrinking and slackness in any
shape or form

SNOWFALL PRAYER AGAIN
Attempt to Revive Endless Chain Be

London, July 2.-The SNOWFALL prayer
a manifestation of religious mania which
was expressly condemned by the Bishop
of London and other religious leaders
has started on its career again.
This is the prayer" and the accompany

AN ANCIENT PRAYER.

Thy Precious Blood. and take us to dwell
with Thee in Eternity.
PATER, AVE, GLORIA.
This is the exact copy of an ancient
prayer Copy it and see what happens
It is said in Jerusalem that he who will
not copy this prayer will meet with mis-
nine days, beginning with the day he
receives it. and will send 1t each day to
some friend, will on the ninth day ex-
perience some great JOY. and will be de-
iivered from all calamities. Make wish
while writing this, and do not break the
charm.
This paper must not be signed.
The last sentence gives the clew to the
difficulty which was experienced when the
SNOWFALL prayer last made its appear
ance in tracing its originator.
Many persons who received the prayer,
and either found no time or forgot to copy
it as requested, were seriously perturbed
lest some evil should happen to them.

ENORMOUS OUTPUT
OF DIAMOND MINES
Price Kept Up by Regulating
Quantity Sent to Market

From 100000 to 100000 carats of
diamonds are turned out of the De
Beers mines In year, and as 100000
carats go to the ton this represents half
a ton of diamonds, says the Westmin-
ster Gazette To the end of 1892 10
tons of diamonds had come from this
mine. valued at f60,0o0.000 sterling
This mass of blazing diamonds could
be accommodated in a box five feet
square and six feet high. Sometimes
as many as 5000 carats of diamonds
come from the pulsator in one day,
representing about 100000 in value.
From f4,000,000 to "a, 100000 sterling
is as much as Is spent annually in dia-
monds. BY regulating the output the
directors have succeeded in maintain
ing prices since the consolidation of
the mines in 1888.
Diamonds are found in widely sep
arated parts of the globe. In the United
States they have been picked up in
Arkansas. where the work of testing
the deposits is now going on steadily
and quietly. In California authentic
fnds of diamonds are recorded They
have come from alluvial deposits and
have been found generally in washing
for COLA. In Brazil the diamond in
dustry has been increasing of late
wears. British Guiana produces a small
quantity of diamonds, mostly, how
ever of small size. In 1905 India ex-
ported 3.05s carats, valued at $3.50.
Rut South Africa Is the most important
source of diamonds on the earth. and
ranks with Australia and California as
one of the three great gold yielding
regions.

Be Housed Under One Roof

Scattered at present in various build
ings in different parts of Vienna, Aus
tria's great industrial associations Will
in a few weeks be gathered under one
roof in the magnificent new Industrial
palace on the Schwarzenberg place.
says the Chicago News. Occupying
commanding site in the finest part OF
the city. this ."industrichaus" has cost
to build. exclusive of the ground, $780,
0oo The money was raised by the In
dustriehausverein, an association COM
posed of some of the wealthiest manu-
facturers and merchant princes In the
country. Their object was to provide
a central meeting place for the lead
ing industrial societies and clubs OF
Austria, where each could have Its
headquarters and offices and with pub
lie halls besides for business and fes-
tive purposes.
The new building is in the italian
renaissance style from the plans OF
Holfrat Karl Konig. professor in the
architectural school of the Vienna uni
versity. 1t is of four-story elevation.
and the outer walls are of brick COW
cred with plaster after the usual fash

trance includes a magnificent marble
portico hall with a wide grand stair

hochparterre, or second floor, which
contains the principal rooms At the
head of the staircase is a larger foyer,

CARRIE NATION WILL
AID MOTHERS IN LAW
Will Dig Up the Hatchet for
War Along New Line

Having fooled In her attempt to
suppress rum selling and cigarette
smoking with her little hstchet, Car
rie Nation now declares her intention
OF securing better appreciation OF
mothers in law. Besides being a fool
proposition, says the Pittsburg Ca
zette-Times, this is about as impos-
sible a task to undertake by means of
systematic effort as one can conceive.
Carries solicitude for the mother in
law is wholly gratuitous. The indi-
vidual is usually abundantly able to
take care of herself Mrs. Nations con-
tention is that mothers in law do not
get the attention they ought to have
from the American people" That Is
mere assumption. The mother in law
gets all the attention she is entitled to,
and sometimes great deal more, and
the woman occupying that important
station in domestic affairs who would
turn for succor to Mrs. Nation or any
body else is rare indeed.
Joking or complaining aside, how
ever, as a rule the mother in law is
the architect of her own destiny. In
proportion as she makes herself low
able, so is she valued by her daughter
in law or son in law and all who come
within her presence. II she have the
proper conception of her status and is
amiable, forgiving, prudent and for
bearing, her place in the affections of
the family is secure and sacred. She
soon discovers that there is neither
fippancy nor inpatience in the atti-
tude of others toward her, but an abid-
ing confidence, sympathy and respect.
1t is the mother in law who is intoler-
ant, whining and selfsh-meddling
oversolicitous and narrow minded-who
is the bane OF so many households and
the butt of ridicule and cruel sibes.
Ne Carrie Nation campaign can rescue
such a woman from the penalty of her
own short sightedness and narrow
mind.
There is no such thing as a mother
in law class. Women holding that re-
sponsibIe position in life must be re-
garded as to their personal attributes,
and not be studied nor discussed as
a species. There is no hard and fast
method that will assure success in
every case. Undoubtedly a subtle
change takes place in the heart and
conscience OF woman when she
reaches this new relation. The son in
law and the daughter in law and their
helpmates must work out a problem
for themselves, trusting to Providence
to protect them from failure
