THE END OF TUBERCULOSIS
Physicians Lack knowledge.
BY GEORGE W. COTTIS.

We may provide all the restric-
ton we wish, we may provide
hospitals and enact laws, but we
are making bricks without straw
unless we provide for funda-
mental, early diagnosis. am not
afraid to say that Is per cent of
the practicing physicians in New
York today are unable to dag
nose incipient tuberculosis, that
a majority Of them do not cor
rectly diagnose even quite adj
vanced cases and that some do
not make proper diagnosis
even after death. So it will be
a step in advance if we can pro-
cure expert physicians to exam
Inc patients in each county with
out expense. And If we can
have early diagnosis by these
expert physicians. these expert
diagnosticians, the smaller coun-
ties of the state will be greatly
benefited, for they are sadly in
need of such assistance.

Boston.-Addressing the American

President Taft denounced by inference
the recall as applied TO the judiciary.
and urged the adoption OF the arbitra-
ton treaties. He also spoke of the need
OF reform in legal procedure.
He declared that the initiative
should be taken by lawyers and said
that 1t always gave him great pleas

judges.

Reviewing briefly the general arbi-
tration treaties with Great Britain
and France. the president made II
plain that he did not believe that the
objections to the treaties were valid.
A resolution denouncing the princi-
pie Of the recall OF judges was adopt
ed by large majority. II declared
that the application TO judges OF the
principle OF recall would create judi
ciary whose decisions would not rest
upon the law OF the land. but would
be influenced by transient public SEN
ument; and that the establishment OF
such a judiciary would be destructive

AMERICAN WOMEN ARGUEaS
They Wrangle Over Trifles and Make
Life Uncomfortable. Says the Mar
ried Man.

There are three 'pon'ts' which
every clergyman could with proprlety
add as a homily TO the wedding cere-
mony." remarked An unhappy looking
married man. Don't argue. don't
bicker. don't nag. and the greatest OF
these is don't argue. for in the trail OF
argument troops pickering and a host
OF other petty. disagreable traits
which lead straight 70 disaster.
The habit OF arguing over tribes Is
q dangerous one. yet one that is in
dulged in by women. and particularly
American women. II is not going too
far 10 say that the American woman
is more given TO argument than any
other. She contracts the habit in the
cradle and successfully carries II
through life
The fact that many women use
an argument as a safey valve for de
preston and vent their ill-feeling in
this form OF wrangling. And generally
the smaller the trife the greater the
wrangle. Once an argument is fairly
started, no one knows where It may
land one. one goes much further than
intended. and says things that had bet
ter been left unsaid.
1t is a rare woman who can take
an impersonal attitude in an argument
and maintain IT, The average woman
quickly becomes personal 10 the point
OF rudeness and is often disagreeabIe-
Worse than this. she is not always
overly scrupulous in her methods. She
will say anything to carry her point
with an absurd diregard for accuracy.
"A certain type OF woman instinct
lively takes the opposite side Of a ques-
ton. II you mildly remark that the
day is pleasant. she declares ii quite
the contrary. This sort OF woman has
a tremendous power for making life
uncomfortable. and her methods may

contended that the company cannot
conscientiously perform its proper du-
ties to the public. as a quasi-public
corporation. and place IN the hands
OF any federation the power that
would necessarily be placed IN any
such organization as was proposed"
The company's refusal 10 recognize
the federation is all that occurred at
the conference, and no further meet

the union men has been arranged.
