DANGERS OF DUST

A warning against the dangers of
dust was issued in a statement re-

ton for the Study and Prevention OF
Tuberculosis, in which 1t is shown
that the percentage Of deaths caused
by tuberculosis in dusty trades is
more than double that for all employ
ed men in the registration area of the
United States. AS q result of the
dangers from consumption to those
exposed to various forms of dust, and
at the request of the national associa-
ton, the United States government
has recently appointed commission
to work in cooperation with state
authorities In making an investigation
into the conditions OF the metal min
ing industries in the United States.

the lungs. The work of the commits

follow lines somewhat similar to those
worked out by the Royal Commission
of Australia. whose report was recent

of three kinds" says the national asso-
citation: factory, street and house

The statement refers to the results
obtained through investigations made
for the bureau of labor, by Frederick

Colonel Roosevelt is for righteous

editorial article he declares that
Uncle Sam should not bind himself
to arbitrate with the wrongdoer if his
pocket is picked or his house burglar

that. The same law, Mr.. Roosevelt
declares. should obtain between ma

ment speaks also of the dangers from
house dust, especially in rooms that
are not well ventilated.
The association warns against dry
sweeping, and against the use Of the
feather buster, or other devices that
scatter, but do not take up the dust
Since ordinary dust blown about in
the streets is impregnated with dis
ease germs, the national association
urges the adoption of methods that
will prevent the further dissemination
of such bacilli. It also urges for the
coming months of fall and winter,
more open windows and more fresh
air in house, shop and schoolroom.

THE MIRROR OF LIFE.

THE MIRROR OF LIFE.
Do you wish for kindness? Be kind.
Do you wish Cor truth? Be true.
What you give of yourself you find,
Your world is a reflex Of you
For life is mirror. You smile
And smile is your sure return.
Bear nate in your heart and erewhile
All your world with hatred will burn.
Set love against love. Every deed
Shall armed as fate recoil.
You shall gather your fruit from the
seed
That you cast yourself in the soil.
Each act is separate link
In the chain of your veal or your
woe.
Cups you offer another to drink
The taste of their dregs We shall
know.

nR. wILEYs GOOD WORK.

That children are dying in the
United States at the rate OF quar-
ter of a million year from the eff
fects of poisoned food is the astonish-
ing charge made by the editor OF the
National Food Magazine. The same
authority declares that $4,000 is a
conservative estimate Of the whole
number OF deaths annually in the
United States as the result OF food
adulteration.
These appalling totals are, OF
course, estimated, but the estimates
are based on a painstaking investiga-
ton of known cases and departmental
reports fairly representative OF the
whole country. Besides these figures
the embalmed beef scandal of the
Spanish-American war sinks into in
significance. According to this au.
thority more persons are sacrificed
annually on the altar of adulteration
than the entire number of soldiers
engaged in that war. Counting the
deaths of babies alone, adulteration
claims more human lives annually
than was sacrificed in all the battles
of the four years of the civil war
More than thirty times as many child
lives are offered up annually than the
total of the American losses OF dead
wounded and captured In the eight
years of the revolutionary war.
