GAS OF BAD MEAT
CONSUMPTION CURE
English Miner Says He Made
the Discovery While Rails
ing Maggots.

London, July 26.-Following on the heels
Of the report or the Royal Tuberculosis
commission and the annual conference Of
the National Society for the Prevention
OF tuberculosis comes the announcement
OF a strange new cure for CONSUMPTION by
q former miner OF the name of Bryant
who worked in the coal pits at Bradford
and who was attacked by consumption
while at work I'm the nine
Bryant started the breeding Of maggots
which are raised In England for fishing
bait and feeding pheasants. and there was
an immediate and continuous improve
ment In health that led him to suppose
that the gas of the purified meat upon
which he bred the maggots was the
cause.
He sent for his youngest daughter, who
was In consumption sanatorium in the
Isle Of Wight. and In two months she
became a robust girl, having gained II
pounds. Bryant now has so patients
breathing the gas from the purified meat
with a result that is said to be excellent
A man of the district has given $4,000
to erect building for a test Of the cure
on big scale.
An analyst reports the principal constit-
uents OF the gas are ammonia and trime-
thylamine. which even in a weak solution,
destroy microbes In few hours OF ex-
posture.

A Bill Nye Yarn.

from the chicago Evening Post.
A Bill Nye story that had gotten by the
iatield OF historians tickled small COM
pany yesterday. 1t was sprung by a
graduated cutter OF clothing.
Nye was i'm artistic partnership with
James Wh.tcomb Riley, and the two were
filling dates near Chicago. 1t was early
summer and Nye was In need OF a light
weight suit. So he picked out a likely
looking shop and was measured
The humorist will be recalled as angu-
TAR, gawky and guileless In appearance
Any schemer in trade would size him up
rs a boob and deal accordingly. The
10th that was handed to Nye on this &C.
casion was a crime.
Nye came back to town a few weeks
later and strollcd into the tailor's shop.
not wrathfully, but with the idea of hay-
ing some real solid fun. BY coincidence
Riley had been steered against the same
shop and was being measured
The Indiana poet was known to the
tailor. and he said to him as Nye entered !:
There ia the partner of my travels
Mr.. Nye
The tailor saw his recent quarry and
olushed, but had to make the best Of It.
How do you do, Mr.. Nye?" he said
Did the suit turn out all right?"
WELL" said Bill 'I'll tell you I didn't
use my general precaution and must adj
init that results were not entirely salts

am partly to blame. / didn't think to ask
and you forgot to tell me that It was not
safe to wear this suit right out in the

From the Cha mberlajn. q ID. II

From the Chamberlain, 8. d. Democrat.
This is dog story, and the strong
part about It, it is literally true. Tues
day as the west bound freight was
leaving Mitchell tramp shepherd dog
that had been getting acquainted with
the train crew, concluded that the train
boys looked good to him, so as the
train left the dog followed. He kept UP
for time until the train gathered
speed, and was left in the rear. The
train stopped to do a lot OF switching
at Mt. Vernon. and 10 and behold Mr..
Dog showed I'D before the train pulled
out, wagging it's tail with delight. AS
the train pulled out the dog again fol-
lowed with the same result. landing at
Plankinton before the train pulled out.
The train Boys then threw the dog into
a car, and he was carried to White
Lake. At that place, during the switch
ing. the dog got out and was over
looked as the train pulled out. Mr..
Dog soon caught On, though, and
hiked off down the track after the dis
appearing train. At kimball he again
caught up. The train pulled out again
with the dog making a stern chase of
1t. At 2ukwana the freight took a
siding for the passenger to pass, and
right along behind the passenger was
Mr.. Dog once more. The train crew
had not yet completed its work in the
Chamberlain yards when along comes
compete with the steam horse. For q
distance OF 6S miles he had kept up
with the train. only riding IL miles.
Now We leave 1t to the readers wheth-
ar this is q horse on the train or q
horse on the dog.

How love to hear the rattle of the hard
coal In the chute
When it's ninety-six or seven in the
shade:
What a restful. soothing feeling through
my being seems to scoot,
By what pleasing, airy fancies L am
swayed.
In my glad imagination behold the
driver where
He's industriously shoveling the coal:
His ears and neck are blackened, there is
fuel In his hair,
But there may not be a stain upon his
SOUL
To his skin his shirt Is sticking, here and
there q little stream
Trickles from his chest or dribbles down
his back:
From his shoetops there are rising cum
ming little puffs Of steam;
On his visage white streaks mingle with
the black.
You may think the hurdygurdy makes the
sweetest, soothing sound
Or be S!adiened by the pupil with the
flute;
Iiut to me the Swcetast music when the
sun has parched the ground
Is the rattle OF the hard coal in the
chute.
