the famous classical scholar and pro-

When Hoppner, the painter. was re-

London. Person one afternoon sud-

that he could not offer him dinner, as
Mrs 81. had gone to town and had
carried with her the key Of the closet
which contained the wine. Porson
declared. however. that he would be
content with a mutton chop and beer
from the next alehouse and accord

During the evening Porson said. Il
am quite certain that Mrs. Hoppner
keeps some nice bottle for her private
drinking in her own bedroom. so pray

His host assured him that Mrs. 81. had
no such secret stores; but, P0rson In

Mininn Eor Coffin Planks.

One of the most curious industries In
the world Is the business of mining for
coffin planks. which is carried on In
upper Tonkin. a portion of the French
possessions In southeastern Asia. In
a certain district in this province there
exists great underground deposit Of
logs. which were probably the trunks
Of trees engulfed by an earthquake or
some other convulsions Of nature at a
comparatively recent period. The trees
are u species Of pine known to the
natives and also to some extent to Eu-
ropean commerce as "nam-hOu." The
wood Is almost imperishable and has
the quality, either through its nature
or as the result Of It's sojourn under
ground. Of resisting decay from damp.
This quality makes 1t particularly val
uable for the manufacture Of collins,
and for this purpose it is largely ex-
ported to Europe. The trees are often
a yard in diameter. They are buried
in sandy earth at depth of from two
to eight yards and are dug up by M.

Darius Greens of his day. He sifted
the matter for himself and thought 1t
involved two problems. First to find
q body lighter than air, so that It
would rise. He imagined that sooner
or later such a body might present
itself. There was no telling. But
what stumped him was his second
problem-how to make that obliging
body stop rising and how in creation
to make it come down. This was too
tough for Jean Jacques, and he wound

THE END OF TUBERCULOSIS
Consumption and Poverty.
BY DR.. OSCAR H. ROGERS.

BY DR.. OSCAR H. ROGERS
Mr.. Charles Booth in his nota-
BILE study of poverty as he found
1t In the city Of London esti-
mates that 30 per cent of all
chronic poverty Is caused by III
health. 1t would be most In
teresting study to determine by
careful research how large a
proportion of this Ill health
which causes poverty is due to
consumption alone. If 80 per
cent Of the deaths among our
adult population. taken as a
whole. are due to tuberculosis
may we not say that at least
80 per cent of deaths among the
very poor are due to that dis
ease: Ny own impression Is
that that estimate is not too
high. that consumption and
chronic poverty constitute a vi
cious circle. each reacting so as
to produce the other. and that
no real progress may be made In
our campaign unless we some
how manage to break this vi
cious circle | wish to strongly
urge this point of view. that our
campaign must be directed
against the tuberculosis Of the
very poor. Poverty and igno-
rance unite to produce those con-
ditions which favor the spread
Of consumption. Consumption
contributes nightly to the pov.
erty and ignorance among us.
