Coal To Go Up

The price of coal will advance
twenty-five cents ton on October 1.
No. furnace coal will then cost $500
a ton. The price of Kitchen range
coal will be $40. This exceeds the
usual summer rate by 45 cents and
is higher by twenty-five cents than
the price of coal last winter.
The advance next October is mere
~ the usual addition to the price
made at that time; but attains i'm
portance through the fact that the
customary drop Of twenty-five cents
on April l did not take effect this
spring, because of suspension at tho
mines for two months on account of
a threatened strike.
It is not known that there will be
any further advance during the win
ter If mining operations are tenn
porarily suspended, or if through
scarcity of cars there is difficulty in
getting the coal to market, wholesalers

GOOD DETECTIVE WORK

GOOD DETECTIVE WORK.
The suspicion against New York
police officials of cCnLivance with the
gunner" who did the Rosenthal muir
der, and the long pursuit of "Gyr the
Blood" and other characters wanted
in connection with this affair, Illus
trate the false conception of Diet scfive
work entertained by the public.
In the public eye, the detective is d
Sherlock Holmes creature, being :
myth, romance, and mystery. With SUI
perhuman intelligence he finds sig
niftcance in the most Opaque facts.
He thereby trails down his yiotiGs
with the certainty of the blood hound.
Actually, nearly all detectives are
quite ordinary people. A writer very
familiar with police work once said
llidI IL Steliicu ~ MN tidI thG ttNel-
age detective is not nearly as bright
a man as the average chauffeur, for
instance
The qualities that count for the
most in detective work are persist
ence and honesty. A great deal of de
tectiye work fails because the detec-
tives find they can sell out to the
criminals for higher price than they
can get from the authorities.
Another phase appears, when as Oft
EN- happens, some of the finest detec
tive work is accomplished by a partial
connivance at crime Some tremendous
public howl arises for the landing OF
the men who did certain job a de
tectiye on whom some responsibility
rests may finally become tired of run
ming down fake clues and hanging
around railroad stations.
He knows the different characters
of the underworld and their varying
methods and haunts, as we'll as a
manufacturer knows the different men
in his business and the character of
their product
As the quickest way out of the
mess, he will sometimes make deal
with some professional criminal, as
the result of which he gets his clues
on this particular case The criminal
gets a tacit agreement for protection
in his business. The immunity thus
gained by a crook is mighty conyen-
lent on future occasions.
Dogged humdrum, ploddng perser
verance is the best quality next to
honesty that detective can have. Ii

CAMPAIGN FUNDS.

In the old days money spent on elee-
tons was just like coins dropped in
to the sea. 1t disappeared into the
silent depths of politics, and few
thought of asking where or whence.
Today the tracks of the campaign
spender are not easily obliterated. One
day some fellow who did not get all
he wanted of it will tell tales, and
the rumors of full barrels are not
easily concealed. Congress has been
ringing with charges and counter
charges, and things that formerly were
hidden are being proclaimed from the
house tops.
Under the old convention system of
nomination. a candidate made his
deals with leaders and committee men
and BOSSES and there were limits to
the consideration they dared ask.
Whether you like primary elections or
not as so far conducted it does cost
big sum of money to present a can
didacy to the voters, even if no money
is spent corruptly.
How shall it be arranged so that
poor man, minus wealthy hackers, can
run for office? There is no bigger
question
Some blame the newspapers, charg-
ing that the recent custom of insert
ing large campaign advertisements has
enormously in .reased the candidates
bills.
1t er Be said for campaign adver-
pseM, that it is the most logical form
of expenditure The money spent
through heelers largely sticks in their
dirty pockets. The money spent
through the newspaper buys good
white space, and the same results can
be had as are secured by merchants
through their advertising. The cam
paiGn advertisement appeals to people
in eisure moments, and is most eff
fective when it consists of carefully
stated facts and arguments.
A form of campaign expenditure
that is useless and wasteful and might
we'll be forbidden, consists of bill
board posters. These make no appeal
to public Intelligence. They deface
the streets. II all candidates were for
hidden to use them great drain
would be stopped and no public inter
est would be injured.
Political workers and team hire at
the polls are two great sources of eX-
pendture that bear on the impecun.

COUNTRY SCHOOL TEACHER AS
PUBLIC HEALTH EDUCATOR.

The country school teacher should be
public health educator, according to
DR.. Charles E. North, of New York
City, author of an article OF" Sanitation
IN Rural Communities, just issued by
the United States Bureau of Education.
AS the natural intellectual leader of his
community, the rural teacher, he main
tains, can do for spubhcI. health IN the
country what the medical inspector and
school nurse are doing in the city-point
the way to clean living.
Mere teaching of physiology is not
what is needed Physiology NAV satisfy
the curiosity of children as to their in
ternal organs, but it does not protect
them IN any way against tuberculosis
from contaminated milk or typhoid from
impure water. The rising generation,
whether in thei country or in the city,
has right to be instructed in the first
principles of sanitary science.
Far from being too difficult to teach
in the elementary school, the subject of
public health can be made both under
standable and interesting. Such simple
operation as washing the hands, for in
stance, becomes attractive when studied
with reference to bacteria, Personal
cleanliness, purity of food and OF drinks.
the nature of disease, and the methods
OF transference, areall things which can
be expressed in the simplest terms and
made clear to the understanding of
children" asserts DR.. North. milk.
its value as food, the fact that it is
highly appreciated by bacteria, and that
it is thereforeiEnecessary to protect it
against them-these are not too difficult
for the child to understand.
DR.. North emphasizes the need of
speciaItraining in this subject for school
teachers. He believes that normal
schools and and teachers colleges
should have regular courses in public
health, so that the country school teach
er may sbe armed with the essential
facts of sanitary science.
Remarkable results may be expected
to follow adequate public health work
by rural school teachers. 1t is estimat-
ed thatsif effective sanitation were en-
forced the present average of As years
for human life would be prolonged to 60.
In rural communities annually 400, 900
persons die and about 1000, 900 others
are seriously i'll from infectious diseases
If only one-half of the deaths and cases
of sickness. can be eliminated, it means
that an immense field of useful work
lies at the hand of the country school
teacher who will become a public health
educator, and will instruct the children
and tbs mothers and fathers how to
prevent the transference of poisonous
bacteria from those who carry them to
those who do not
