Probably "The Old Homestead" has,
during It's entire existence, Travelled
a distance of at least half a dozen
times around the globe.
What is more remarkable is the fact
that the play has been seen i'm this

LOOKING AFTER THE BULBS.

Now is the time TO look over the
summer towering bulbs you are keep
ing over, such as cannas, gladiolus,
dahlias, ETC. If they show signs Of
shrivelng they are being kept in a
place that is too warm and should be
removed to a cooler one.
Bulbs and roots that start to grow
In the cellar are better potted and
brought TO the window than allowed
to sprout in the cellar.
Geranium and chrysanthemum suit
tings may have TO be made earlier
than scheduled on account Of starting
into growth.
If possible, depend upon a cold
frame for starting seeds instead of
fussing with boxes in the house. 1t Is
less trouble and there is less danger
of damping off.

evening March g. is said to have been
PLAYED continuously for a longer per-
iod than any other play ever staged
in this country. Plays of great merit
usually last five or six seasons and
then go TO the stock houses for oc-
casonal representation. The one eX-
ception has been Mr.. Thompson's play,
and it has been on the go now many
years, this being the twenty fifth sea-

HEMANs MAY BE CANDIDATE.
Friends Place Name on Ticket For
Circuit Judge In Ingham.

Lansing, Mich, March 6.-Lawton IT,.
Hemans, member of the state railroad
commission and twice candidate for
governor on the democratic ticket, APP
pears to have obtained a sufficient
number of votes to insure him a place
on the democratic ticket for circuit
Judge Of Ingham county.
The democrats only placed one name
hon their primary ticket. that of Alva
NJ. Cummins. There are two positions
to fill and democrat voters wrote in
the names of Mr.. Hemans and A. A.
Bergman. Mr. Hemans received more
votes than Mr. Bergman and may be
declared the nominee.
Ingham county democrats are not at
all glad that the names of Hemans and
Bergman were written on the ballot,
as II was for the purpose of assuring
the election of Cummins that the tick
ct was left with only one nominee The
matter will probably not be determined
until the county board of canvassers
meets.

Associations for the prevention of
tuberculosis have been formed in Gu
ba, Porto Rico and Trinidad. In Gu
ba there are over 10000 deaths from
tuberculosis every year, and the death
rate from the disease is nearly three
times as high as In the United States.
In Porto Rico there are over 5000
deaths every year out of 100000 in
habtants. IN Trinidad, the death rate
from tuberculosis in Port-of- Spain,
the only place where figures are
available, was 4.75 per 1000 in 1909,
nearly three times the rate in New
York city. Conditions in the other
islands of the West Indies, where no
active campaign against tuberculosis
has been undertaken, are even worse.
The chief reason for this high NOR
tally is found in the unsanltary, dark
and poorly ventilated houses of the
natives of the islands.
| In Denmark. the campaign against
| tuberculosis has been carried on sys-
tematically since 1895. The reporting
Of living cases of tuberculosis i'm Dem
mark has been more successful than
in almost any other country Of the
world. The death rate from pulmon-
airy tuberculosis has fallen from 1882
to 1898 per 10000 from 1895 to 1908
There is now one sanatorium for every
1,244 inhabitants and every tubercu-
losis patient is assured Of treatment al
a cost within reach of anyone. The
state pays three-fourths Of the ex-
pense of treatment and the patient ol
his community the remaining fourth.
The Italian government, on account
Of the number of tuberculosis case
among the Italian emigrants sen
back from America, has appointed
boards of examiners i'm the seaports
whose duty II is to report the arriva
