Our readers will undoubtedly be in
terested is a stateemnt made by DR.. J.
H. Kellogg Of Michigan, the superin-
tendent Of large sanitarium. when he
went to the national capital to speak
before a committee of the house of
representatives in behalf of a bill to
establish in Washington a national
department Of health. This proposed
department is to do for people what
Ihe national department of agriculture
Is no" doing for plants and animals
saving their lives from diseases.
DR.. Kellogg's remarks touched a
phase of the question which will strike
home to almost every man and woman
ia the United States. He said:
While there has been a wonderful

which is unhealthful. and by and by
the symptoms break out, and when
symptoms do appear the mischief is
done, and nothing can remedy it. The
symptoms by which Bright's disease
is generally recognized do not indi-
cate the beginning Of this malady, but
the end of it. When a man goes to a
doctor and the doctor finds he has
albumen and casts, the man is nearly
dead; his hopes for long life are abb
solutely blasted; he MAS been having
Brights' disease for ten or fifteen
years perhaps and did not know 1t.
1t is just like fire that, starting in
the cellar of a house, has burned its
way up through the partitions until
it breaks out through the roof. Then
everybody knows the house is on fire,
while before the fact was not known.
Now, an acute disease is like fire
inside the house when a lamp ex-
plodes. The fire soon burns out and
the house itself is little damaged. But
chronic disease may be likened to the
house itself on fire. These causes of
chronic diseases are exceedingly in
sidious; they are subtle; they are OBJ
scure; they are not generally known
or recognized. 1t is highly important
that they should be thoroughly inves-
tigated.
"The causes of acute disorders are
pretty thoroughly known, and the
methods of prevention are compare
lively easy of application through pub
lie health legislation and police regu-
lation. But the causes of chronic dis
eases are not so well known. A dense
cloud of mystery still conceals the orr
gin of cancer, diabetes and to a great
extent of all chronic maladies.
1T is manifestly a matter of ire
mendous importance that there should
be a thoroughgoing scientific investi-
cation of the relation of habits to
health. This is work which can be
accomplish only by a large body of
experts provided with all the appli-
ances and resources afforded by mod
ern science.

HAMPER PARK

Through the public spiritedness and
generosity of Mr.. John Hamper, and
as result of the untiring efforts of
the local chapter of the Daughters
of the Confederacy and the liberality
of the Hattiesburg city council, this
city will, within the course of Snort
time, have one of the finest and most
beautiful public Fairgrounds in the
South.
A few years ago Mr.. Hamper do
ated to the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy a beautiful forty-acre tract OF
land within the city limits and direct
ly on the electric car line running out
on Hardy street.
The Daughters turned the property
over to the city with the stipulated
condition that it be improved and
used henceforth for park purposes
only.
The condition of the gift by Mr..
Hamper to the United Daughters of
the Confederacy was that they could
not sell or transfer the property to
any other person or corporation than
the city of Hattiesburg. The city, up
on accepting the property, appointed
a Park Commission composed of five
members of the Daughters of the
Confederacy, and the President of the
society, making six ladies', and five
gentlemen from the city at large and
the Mayor of the city, making six gen.
tlemen, or a total of twelve persons
on the Commission. The Commission
meets on the third Monday in every
month
Immediately after taking over the
property for the city the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen instructed the
city engineer to make a profile draw
ing of the grounds with the view of
removing the underground and

Mr.. Bartlett-"Have you no opinion
about it?'
DR.. Kellogg-"Yes, sir; I have a
very decided opinion that this in
crease is probably due to wrong habits
of life, but hesitate about answering
your question because | can give only
an opinion.
Now, we have vast number of
opinions as to the causes of this in
crease in chronic diseases; we have a
multitude of voices crying one thing
and another, but what we want is to
have the question settled on scientific

incident to this work was raised by
private subscription. Subsequently a
tax levy of one-quarter of a mill was
imposed for park improvement pur-
poses, and when the first installment
of these funds was placed into the
hands of the park commission the pre-
liminary work Of clearing the grounds
was begun. During the first year all

Federal Department of Health Should
Determine Causes.

1T is work which can be accom-
plished speedily and effectively by
body having federal authority and
prestige. The state puts out a red
flag as a warning against smallpox,
but leaves the citizen to walk straight
into the jaws of other monsters of dis
ease-cancer, nephritis, diabetes,
heart disease and arteriosclerosis. Is
it not the duty of the state and the
national government to bring to bear
all the resources of modern science to
aid in the settlement of those vital
questions pertaining to the causes of
chronic diseases?
THE work that has been done by
the department of agriculture in re-
lation to the feeding and care of live
stock has produced prodigious results,
by which the whole country has
profited. Similar work in regard to
human beings should be conducted un-
til it is possible for the mother who
is rearing a future president to be

to put on the appearance of a public
