days business amounted to S3,6ll.

merchandise department is doing an
unusually heavy business this spring
handling some of the biggest trade

traffic handled by the company
makes it possible to do carlot bus
mess in spite of the heavy freight
rate handicap.

NOT AN INHERITED DISEASE
Tubereular Germs Acquired Only
Through Association With Those
Who Are Afflicted.

Very fat people and very thin
people are more likely TO have con.
sumption than people of good aver.
age weight. II your brothers or sis
ters have consumption. your chances
are against escaping it. II your IA.
ther fingered along with consumption,
or your mother died OF consumption,
there is danger that you may get con.
sumption. But II your father and
mother both died of consumption
when you were very young, you have
a good chance Of not getting the dis.
ease.
The reason for all this Is that people
do not inherit consumption. but &C.
qulre the tubercular germs from as.
sociatlon with people who have con.
sumption. That is the reason why
any sick brothers or sisters In the
house are likely to convey the dis.
ease to you. 1t Is the reason why one
OF your parents. lingering along
through many years Of the disease. is
likely to spread It to other members
OF the family-but II this parent or
both parents die OF consumption while
you are very young you may have
been spared the long years Of possible
infection.
The more the scientists study the
subject Of tuberculosis the more they
are convinced that It is a disease OF
poor food and poor nourishment. II

there is no excuse for a rich man hay.

cure for this disease Is plenty Of good
