 Gentlemen always spit on the ceilings, castings, around the spit toon, on the stove and against the walls. They jamb the drawers with shoe boxes, whiskey bottles and mouldy sox. They generally leave a stream of luxuriant steeped tobacco on their chin and the butt of 5 cent stogie between their ivory teeth.
 Gentlemen never clean their shoes, their clothes or wash their hands. They slop water about the floor and talk so loud everyb body can hear them four blocks distant.
 Gentlemen always get home at two in the morning, unlock the door with cigar stump and zigzag against the mirror or through It and finally pile into bed boots and all. Then on the cold grey dawn of the morning after while they have taste finished in dark brown and physog. in distortion they move about with a grumble.
 Gentlemen omit the glass, use the bottle, sing vile songs and teeter on their legs as though they were made of India rubber, and then when the blossom on their nose fades they are grumpy, stingy and cross. That's why strangers seem frigid. They think you gentle man.

OBSERVATIONS OF
 A CLODHOPPER

We oftimes wonder why people are SO indifferent and cold to strangers, why the whole world is afraid of it's inhabitants.
 The average human is sort of A hog. He gobbles all he can, bilks right and left, and poses as a gen. tleman and lives after the manner of beasts, It is no wonder some are kicked and cuffed about. They deserve something to wake them up to their faults.
 There are sharks of various classes, they don't all inhabit the sea either. Some pose as minis ters, book agents, ex-preachers etc. They slyly gain the confidence of their victims and then their work is done. How numerous are those who hesitate not to slay for gain. Life is naught to such monsters and gore but bloody inspiration.
 Nearly one and three quarter billions of people are on this earth. Two hundred and fifty national ities and bloods are represented and tens of millions of different dispositions. Hogs are limited to just few varieties, the razor backs and few others.
 The greatest evil the hogs human and otherwise have in their com position is greed or selfshness The quadruped has not the intellect or cunning of the biped, hence not so numerous the crimes in the sty If any desire exists to learn the true nature of fellow beasts. ob. serve their habits closely.

IIoht on cav,e Of TubereuIosIs.

The sixth annual meeting of the Ma

Prevention OF tuberculosis was held
In Washington on May and 3. Among
the most interesting papers was one
by DR.. William II. Parks. the famous
pathologist and head of the lebora-
tories of the New York city depart
ment of health. Doctor Park contended
that pulmonary tuberculosis is very
rarely, If ever. caused by infection
from bovine sources, such as the
drinking of milk or the eating of meat.
tuberculosis of the stomach and inter
nal organs, which compose only about
ten per cent. of the sickness from
this disease. are often caused by drink
ing or eating infected matter. Doctor
Park substantiated his conclusions by
showing the results Of years Of inves-
tigation and examination Of pathologi-
cal specimens. His conclusions are
substantially those reached by DR..
Robert Koch. the discoverer of the tu-
bercle bacillus.
