PURE AIR AND HEALTH.

Here are some "healthgrams" from
the Chicago Health Bulltein that are
worth memorizing:
Dirty air is death
Good air means good work
Too much fresh air is just enough.
Fresh air is the best life assurance
! agency.
To prevent a cold, liberate the foul
air in your room.
Taking in fresh air is better than
putting on fresh airs
Good ventilation is the first essen
tial to the purity of the home.
Pure air makes pure blood. ana
pure blood makes you diseases resist
ing.
There are thousands of cases of air
starvation to every case of food star
vation
Bad air and a high temperature in
the school room are certain to pro
duce low grade of scholarship in the
pupils.
Plenty OF good fresh air will make
the fires of life and health burn bright
~; therefore, don't hibernate; venti-
late.
Smallpox is a disgrace Save your
reputation and your face by vaccina.
tion
Quarantine may temporarily post
pone smallpox: vaccination positively
prevents it. Which will you have.
Quarantine of smallpox is an uncer-
tain and expensive means of protec-
ton
Quarantine is inequitabie. The ma
jority of the people have been v.ccin-
ated. and, therefore, secure no pro
lection from quarantine. They are al
ready absolutely protected by vaccina-
ton.
/ Vaccination is a duty we owe our
selves, our children, and our neigh
bors. Smallpox is the punishment
threatening those who neglect this
duty
The ventilation problem is more OF
problem just at this season that at
any other. Conditions that cause, or
at least encourage colds result from
the efforts to combat mankind's re
turn, after a summer free from
thought of it. At night one covers w
comfortably. and throws the windows
open as usual. But against the morn
ing's cold we close windows and doors
start the fires, and absorbed in work
forget all about ventilation.

STUDENT OF GOVERNMENT

Some people are wondering why
there is such a strong sentiment to
put Woodrow Wilson, governor of New
Jersey, in the presidential chair. In
the minds of many he is regarded
merely as as an educator, hence we'd
ded to the schoolmaster profession
But the late president of Princeton is
more than that. He is a keen student
OF government and some of his scien-
tific theories on this subject are being
brought into a wholesome reality by
virtue OF his being in the executive
chair of one of the sovereign states of
the union. Anyone who has read Will
sons book THE State can readily
see that he has been thorough stu
dent OF the worlds government and
its varied political institutions.

THE TAINTED DOLLARS.

In making public the names of Ham
mond people who own buildings in
West Hammond that are being used
for immoral purposes, Miss Virginia
Brooks has raised delicate question.
1t is plain that if there are people in
Hammond who are not ashamed to
profit indirectly from vice that these
same people ought not be ashamed to
have the fact made public
They must have known that sooner
or later they would be compelled to
shoulder the full responsibility for
their acts. One reason why vice is
able to flourish is that it receives a
degree of liberation from so-caIled re-
spectacle people
These people are able to avoid pub
licity of the kind which Miss Brooks
gave them and reap the enormous
profits which come from this business,
even though they sell their reputa-
tons for the price.
But there is the other side to the
question. The families of men who
choose TO make tainted investments
should hardly be made to suffer for
their acts. 1t is altogether probable
that the wives of every one of those
whom Miss brooks mentions are as
+, deeply chagrined over the disgrace
that has come from the exposure as
!, the most puritanical person in the
community.
! 1t is obvious then that a man who
chooses to permit his property to be
used for such purposes involves in
possible disgrace, not only himself but
also many others who are only re
sponsihle unless they fail to take
steps TO influence husband or father
/. against such an investment.
| The profits from vice may seem al
Turing, but in the last analysis they

man. He and Boehne had a row once
in state convention committee, and
have never gotten over it. Some time
ago the report was that Taggart and
Lick on the governorship and that they
got together on Ralston. Fleming de-
MED this and SO did Taggart. but some
persons who ought to know say that
the report was true. Then a later re-
port was that this arrangement had
been broken UP and that Fleming
would net support Ralston.
The latest report. that Fleming has
urged Taggart to bring O'Brien into
the race is taken as proof that the
agreement on Ralston has been busted.
Politicians here agree that it would
be strange thing to see Taggart and
Fleming working together for the nom
inatfon of OBrien. 1t is pointed out
that the Fleming objection to Ralston
Is that Raiston is Taggart man and
that no Taggart man can have the

after the convention Lamb was tell

that when he arose to make his speech
he had notion 10 tell a story that
would have fitted the case of Ralston
and Shively.
There were two brothers in our
county. one a farmer and the other a
preacher he said. They went west.
Some time later the farmer came back
to Indiana. neighbor met him and
said: Is your brother jim coming

not coming back

Yes
Is he still preaching?
q No. he's quit preaching
Why did he quit?'
We'll. l advised him to quit preach
ing. You see. he had no delivery. and
besides he hadn't anything to deliver
Lamb said the speeches of Raiston
and shively reminded him of the man
that had no delivery and nothing to
deliver
Lamb is opposed to Ralstons nomi-
nation this time, although he supported
him when he ran for governor in 1908.
In fact. Lamb was one of Ralstons
warmest supporters al that time. and
came near having a knock-down and
drag-out fight on one occasion in a
committee meeting on Ralston's &C
count.
Lamb would like to have Congress-
man Moss nominated for governor. but
Moss is not a candidate.

Indianapolis. Ind, 13.-There is a re-
port abroad here that Senator Stephen
b. Fleming. OF Fort Wayne, who has
been an uncertain quantity in regard
to which candidate for the Democra tic
nomination for Governor shall receive
his support has urged Thomas Taggart
to bring out W. H. O'Brien. auditor of
state. as a candidate for the nominal
ton Just where the information came

seems to be based on az air founda-
tion of truth.
What Taggart has told him in re-
gard to the matter T. not known, eth
er. but up to this time O'Brien has not
announced himself as a candidate and
there is good reason to believe that he
will not so announce himself. He says
he is a candidate for denomination for
auditor of state and for nothing else
If the report regarding Fleming is
true it is taken as an Indication that
he Is in sore straits for a candidate for
governor. 1t has been generally under
stood that he would not support Sam
uel NJ. Ralston of Lebanon. who Is rec
ognized as the Taggart candidate. This
precludes him from getting Fleming's
