INDIA PLAGUED WITH
HOOKWORM DISEASE

Washington, March lS,-Hookworm
is largely responsible for the heavy
death rate when famine or plague
breaks out in India and other Eastern
countries. This was the declaration
made by Wickliffe Rose. administra-
tive secretary of the Rockefeller san.
itarium for the eradication Of Hook
worm disease.
Weakened by suffering from hook
worm infection. Mr.. Rose declared
that a large proportion of the people
in India were not able to withstand
hunger.
The same is true. he added, in re-
gard to plague. If once they get a
start they spread like wildfire be-
cause of the anaemic condition of the
people.

He opened cupboard and put a
basket of provisions on the table. Then
he left her after giving her some
books. But she could not read. She

Why was he not her equal?
Because she was a lady of noble
birth and he plain lighthouse keep

education on this little shell of an is
land separated from all the world by
roaring sea? Here they were moth

house was their common shelter
against the elements. And as long as
the storm lasted she was far more
poor and weak than he. Everything
here was his, she was his guest, moth
ing more.
The storm lasted for three days and
nights. In the morning of the second
day the fisherman left his shelter

proach the island he set sail for the
shore The fourth day he came back.
Aurora and the lighthouse keeper saw
him from afar He was silent for
he feared the answer he felt she would
give him to his question. At last he
said
When will we meet again.?

his and kissed him.

LEAGUE OF SOLACE
FOR LONELY WORKERS

New York, March 1S.-Several men
and women, who sympathize with the
lonely young women in the hall room
and the friendless young men who
wonders where he will spend the ev-
ening after his work, are to form a
league to help these lonely ones
With this in view the Less Lonely
league has been started, with L. J.
Wing of 80 West street as president.
On Tuesday evening there will be a
meeting Of the league at the home of
Mrs. E. E. Taylor, 1877 East One Hun
dred and Twenty-Sixth street
The league hopes to open a club
house here and eventually branches
will be established all over the United
States. The rules of the league are
simple and membership is limited to
those who have to lead lonely life.
Greed, social position or money will
not figure in the membership which
will be continued SO long as good be-
havior is maintained.

tween boys and girls teams, of the

girls won first honors.

PLAN An ATTACK
On New Indiana Employers
Liability Law.

Indianapolis, Ind, March 1S.--The
legal department of the Indiana Man.
ufacturers bureau has prepared for
members of the latter an analysis of
the employers liability law enacted
during the last session of the aegisla-
ture. The Law is causing large en-
pioyers much uneasiness.
The legal department takes the view
that much of the new law is a re-enact-
ment of the old one on the same sub
jects, and that practically all the rest
viii be held to be unconstitutional
II is understood that the Manufacture
er's bureau will attack the constitu-
tionality of the law at an early date.
One of the grounds for opposing it
is that it is class legislation. The le-
gal department maintains that the
law is Invalid because it makes an
inuemployer responsible for the acts
of his servant or employees while the
latter is not engaged in the employ
ers business.
Employers generally are receiving
word from indemnity insurance com
panies that their rates are being rails
ed from so to 200 per cent. because
of the new law The coal operators
probobly will be hit harder than any
other class of employers. Their rates
will be advanced about 200 per cent
in many cases. Then new law will
cost many of the large coal operating
companies thousands of dollars an
nually in insurance premiums. Oper-
ators say the only recourse they have
is to raise the nrice of coal
