To Acquaint All
With Means OF Cure
Anti=Tuberculosis Society
Issues Publication to
PUSH Eradication
of Disease.

To further the work of wlping
consumption out of Wiscon sin, TO
advance the day when the dread dis
ease shall be wholly erad1cated,
and to come into closest possible
contact with the sufferers, the Wis
consin Anti-Tuberculosis associ-
alton at a meeting of the executive
committee has decided to issue a
periodical publication, the first
issue of which will appear on April
l.
The publication is calculated to
reach every person in Wisconsin,
including children, and will point
out the way and means to prevent,
cure and eradicate consumption to
the afflicted; to those who have felt
the ravages either themselves or in
their family circle; to all other cit
liens, acquainting every one with
the most approved and simplest
methods Of stopping the progress
of the disease, and bringing back
to health those who are already af-
flicted. 1t will give those who
know it's dire effects an opportunity
to assist others; those more fortu-
nate chance to assist the unfortu-
nate.
The periodical will publish no ad-
vertising matter of any sort and
will be strictly educational in char
acter. The subscription price will
be nominal. The association in
vites requests for free copies Of the
first issue from everybody. 1t is
desired to give the widest possible
circulation to the publication, thus
striking blow after blow at the
great scourge which is costing
Wisconsin thousands of dollars
every week. 1t will be bright,
chatty periodical, for young and
old, teaching simply and directly
the lessons of anti-tuberculosis by
the most effective means.
Requests for free copies of the
first issue will be received by the
Wisconsin neutrality-suspicious. asso-
citation, Goldsmith Building, Mil

nored.

Travelling With TAFT

Not in decades, perhaps, has
there been a time when the trend
of public events was followed with
such absorbing interest by the plain
common people as now. They real
ize as never before that issues af-
fecting their individual interests are
at stake. 1t is for this reason that
Alfred Henry Lewis's series, TRAY
cling with Taft" now running
through HUMAN LIFE is finding an
ever increasing army of eager and
appreciative readers.
In the March installment Mr.. Lew
is tells of the impression made by
the President in the various cities
visited throughout the West, Min
neapolis, Des Moines, Omaha and
Denver where an incident occurred
which the wise declare was not an
accident, but the beginning of a
Taft machine in Colorado with which
will be strongly allied the Guggen-
helm interests. When Secretary
Ballinger joins the Presidential
party it is interesting to learn of
the manner of his reception in the
Far West and the reasons therefor.
"a Secretary of the Interior, with
power to loose and bind in the mat
ter of public lands, not to say water
power, is a hero once he crosses the
Missouri"
The whole article is replete with
apropos anecdotes, "reminiscences,
lively incidents, and the pithy OBJ
servations of a keen man of the
world, whose journalistic training
gives him a sort Of sixth sense
which sees below as we'll as above
the surface, and even scents in the
air what's a-brewing political-wise
many times before it eventuates.

According to an article in the
Technical World Magazine, the best
alcohol (ethyD can now be made
from sawdust by new and secret
process at a cost of six cents per
gallon. A ton of dry sawdust,
worth fifty cents, will produce 22H
gallons of alcohol; a ton of corn,
worth at present prices over twenty
dollars, will produce ninety gallons.
Molasses is a trifle cheaper, but the
comparative cost of producing a
gallon of alcohol from these three
sources is: Corn, twentyeight cents;
molasses, twenty-six cents, and
sawdust six cents.

A TRIBUTE FROM BROOKLYN

The many friends of Pratt Insti-
tute, especially those of the School
of Fine and Applied Arts in which
Mr.. Raymond P. Ensign is highly
esteemed instructor, are deeply
touched by the sad loss that has
come to him. When Mr.. Ensign
brought his young bride East, her
sweet womanliness, friendly gra-
ciousness and beauty won the affec-
ton and admiration at once of the
teachers and members of the Insti-
tute. Feeling so deep an interest
in Mr.. Ensign, this joy that had
come into his life to enrich and
broaden it, seemed a beautiful full
fillment of their desire for his best
welfare and happiness.
His loss is shared by all who
knew Mrs. Ensign even slightly, for
her lovely personality shed joy and
sunshine about her. Her tender
maternal instincts, gentle gracious
ness, and her beautiful affection for
her husband and her home-all the
qualities that make for noble wom-
anhood, have left their ineffacable
imprint on the lives of her Brooklyn
friends.
That her friends were deeply
touched by her rare personality may
be realized from some of the heart
felt expressions of a few who knew
her we'll:
"The ordinary, the commonplace
lends itself readily to expression.
To speak of ones impression of
Mrs. Ensign is difficult. To have
known her slightly was to have felt
the natural charm of a beautiful
woman and the strength. the tender
strength of an unusual character.
To have been her friend was to be
| convinced that the loveliest thing
possible is a woman such as God
| meant woman TO be, such as she
was. Her friendship was refining
process, her influence like that of
the purifying fire upon metal. She
has left her friends better men and
women than she found them and
this refining process will continue
as long as memory lasts"
"Her special charm seemed to lie
in her sincerity, self-forgetfulness,
and in her absolute belief in the sim
cerity and goodness of everyone she
met. Friendship met at once when
meeting her. No preliminary stages
had to be passed"
Always direct, simple, going
straight to the essential things of
life and using the conventionalities
! and formalities of life as aids to
meet it's highest ends. Never chang
ing her quiet, unassuming friendli-
ness of manner, she was ever the
same cordial, helpful friend
ga woman of sweet, simple char
acter; perfect lady, sweet, true,
noble woman
| "She was one of the finest women
l have ever known, friendly and
charming in every way. l feel as If
| had lost sister. When one is SO
fond of another the grief seems IN
bearable and it almost breaks my
heart. Though l did not see her
often, yet she was always so friendly
and so broadminded."
"She had the charm of little
child, frank, fearless, and giving
her best self to all, bringing into
the life of all she met the sweet
ness and fragrance and beauty of 6
lovely flower.
"Her life in Brooklyn makes one
think of the words in the Bible In
praise of good wife: Her price
is far above rubies. F"
