BURN BUILDING TO KILL GERM
Only Way to Get Rid Of Them, and
Occasion Was Made Coed
Object Lesson.

A ramshackle building in Winston
Salem was recently burned at the re-
quest Of the local Anti-Tuberculosis
league, because 1t was said to be alive
with tuberculosis germs and could not
be PROPERLY fumigataed.
For days before the building was
burned huge placards announcing the
hour Of destruction were hung about
IN prominent places. Among other
things the placards said within the
past Is months two men who sold
fruit, etc. here have died OF tuber
culosis, but unconsciously left millions
OF tuberculosis germs by careless
splitting. The building Ia so open that
it cannot be effectively fumigated
The only practical means Of dsin-,
fecting Is by fire"
At the appointed hour. while null
lions Of tuberculosis germs were be-
ing burned. 5000 pamphlets telling
how to prevent consumption. were dis
tributed to the crowd looking on.

AS before stated, the main bust
ness of the B. B. H. is located at the
corner OF Baltimore and Lib; -tv
Streets, running through to Fayette
Street, which is considered the Lest

The special feature OF their New
Building Is the improved mechanical

volume Of business, which they
claim will reduce their expense OF
handling the business materially in
comparison to what 1t costs their
competitors today to handle their
business with laborers.
They attribute the biggest part OF
their success in business to the fact
that they have always handled their
business more economically than any
Other House and thereby they have
been enabled to live up to their ia

The architecture OF the building
and the magnifcence Of its interior

The Baltimore Bargain House has
Just completed history building,
which covers one-third of an i'm
mense city block, with an estimated
floor space of 100000 square feet.
The site is the corner of Baltimore
and Liberty Streets and running
back to Garrett Street.
This building, added to the adjoin-
ing buildings which the B. b. H.
Salesrooms now occupy, extends over
almost IS per cent. of the entire
block.
All combined the B. B. II. build
ings cover almost three large city
blocks. This includes the building
mentioned above and their big Fay
cite Street building. their Clothing
Factory, their Warehouse at Scott,
Stockholm and Wicomico Streets
(Which in itself takes up an entire
block). and other buildings about the
city of Baltimore.
In 1911 the Sales Of the B. b. H.
amounted to $685. 1885. This
statement was sworn to before a No
tary before being published
This makes them the Fourth Larg-
est Wholesale House in any enc city
doing business throughout the United
States.
Taking into consideration that
they have No Travelling Statesmen,
they sell MORE Goods than any
other Wholesale House in America,
in any one city, without the aid OF
Drummers.

90 YOUR DRINKING At MEAL
TIME,

TIE time TO drink water Is at meal
time, rather than between meals.
Drinking between periods of digestion
interferes with the stomach's natural
rest This very important principle Is
also overlooked and violated when we
eat candies and fruits between meals
Water is not believed to call into
operation the activities Of the diges
tive glands in the same way that all
other liquids as well as solids do. but
the disposal Of water does undoubted-
~ excite the muscular movements Of
the stomach.
We need much water Large
amounts are being constantly given
of by evaporation from the skin. ex-
halation by the lungs. and excretion
through the various organs. But we
also take In great quantities of water
in ways we never think OF. Bread.
for instance. contains moisture in the
proportion Of about 80 per cent. for
the Vienna or French type and 35 per
cent in homemade bread In cooked
meats the percentage OF water ranges
from 40 to 80. while In many vegeta-
bles and most fruits the water con-
tent Ia from 80 to IS per cent
Still, We need more. and the desire
to drink while eating Is a physiology
cal as we'll as natural one About
the only restriction Is that we must
not make q sluice-box Of our mouths,
and use water as q conveyor to carry
on food which we have not taken time
to masucate. There is practically no
danger Of our drinking enough at
meal-time to dilute the gastric juice"
as has sometimes been declared.

not alone to the aged who naturally
realize that the time of their depart
ure is drawing nigh, but also to the
young who are so prone to pleace
death in the far distant future, but
which he said is apt to come in the
early time as is the case in this in
stance, as Miss SEWERS was but 20
years old at the time Of her death.
Rev. Anderson very feelingly spoke of
the departed one and gave a short
sketch of her life and of the last
hours at the hospital which caused
every eye to be filled with tears. Her
remains were taken to the kiron Gem
etery, where interment was made.
Hattie SEWERS was member of the
Baptist church, an active worker in
the Sunday school and leaves to
mourn her untimely death besides her
parents, two brothers, two sisters and
a large number of relatives The SYM
pathy of the entire neighborhood is
extended to the bereaved ones. While
gone from the earth she now lives in
the home above, where sickness, trou.
bles and pain never enter and where
all are allowed to wait and watch for
the loved ones on earth.

Oriqin of the Handshake.

Did you ever ask yourself why you
shake hands with a person who you
know? Here is the reason.
In the old days, when every man
who had any pretensions to being a
gentleman carried sword. it was the
custom for men when they met, to
show that they had no intentions of
treachery, to offer each other their
weapon hands-that is the hand that
would be used to draw the sword and
to withhold the hand was usually the
signal for fight.
So fixed did this habit become that
long after men ceased to wear swords
they still offered their weapon hand to
friend, and declined to offer it to an
enemy. TO this day when you refuse
to shake hands with person it signi-
fies that you are at war. Among the
savages, who never carried swords,
the shaking hands is unknown and it
affords them amusement to see the
white men do it.
