Interest In the anti-tuberculosis cam.
paign now being waged throughout the
United States is evidenced by the fact
that in the year 1909 1863 new anti-tu.
berculosis associations were formed.
1873 tuberculosis sanatoria and hospit.
ais were established. and 81 tubercu-
losis dispensaries were opened. Com.
pared with previous years. this is the
best record thus far made in the fight
against consumption in this country.
During the year 1909. 80 more asso-
Citations for the prevention Of tubercu.
losis were formed than during the pre-.
vious IL months. and 62 more hospitals
and sanatoria were established. On
January /. 1910. there were in the Uni
ted States 1894 anti-tuberculosis associ-
atoms. 1856 hospitals and tuberculosis
sanatoria and 2G5 special tuberculosis
dispensaries.

1t is now quite the thing to have a
number of clever tricks up ones
sleeve" as 1t were. with which to be-
guile few moments after dinner. or
to work in at an opportune moment
when there comes a lull in the con-
versation. Jugglery was the Oldest of

seemingly wonderful feats.
A very simple trick is called THE
Balanced Coin" Take a bottle. cork

edge of silver dollar will fit into
it; then put two forks into the upper

revolve without falling This will
amuse children. especially child who
may be prisoner from illness. or on
a rainy day.
To make revolving figure is inter-
esting. Cut wee man out of a thin
bit of wood, make him end In one leg
instead of two; make a pair OF long
arms shaped like oars or paddles.
Then place him on top of your finger
and blow hard. The little man will
go round and round. Another clever
feat is the Spanish dancer. Cut a fig
ure from pasteboard; gum one foot on
the inverted side of watch crystal.
then place 1t on clean plate. Hold
the plate slanting and it will slide
down: but drop a little water on the
plate: instead of the glass sliding, 1t
Will begin to revolve. and continue to
revolve with increased velocity as the
person chooses. This is in consequence
of the cohesion of water to the two
surfaces. by which a new force is
produced.

out for her the secrets, the traditions

legends. From these he passed to the
scenes of 1.-THE Revelation" his latest

of the history of the creation and de-
