FACTS TO BE REMEMBERED.

The exigency of the local situation
prevented Barre churches yesterday from
joining with the other churches through
out the country in the annual observance
Of Tuberculosis Sunday" and, therefore
deprived the community of much of thl
good which might have resulted from
carefully prepared statements concerning
the disease. However, we are enabled
| to use some compact statements which
were prepared for publication in the city
| of New York, and those of the state
ments which have more general refer
ence are here given:
tuberculosis is a germ disease.
| 1t is usually transmitted from one
person to another by the expectoration.
This is absolutely unnecessary if the
expectoration is always destroyed.
One person is dying every three min
utes from tuberculosis in the United
States; 100000 annually.
The disease usually attacks the young
in the prime of their vigor. The eco
nomic waste to the community as well
as the amount of personal suffering is
therefore enormous.
All of this could be prevented if one
case never infected another.
If person keeps strong and healthy,
he is less apt to contract tuberculosis.
The best preventatiyes are fresh air
in the homes, schoolrooms and work
rooms, proper food, cleanliness, temper
anee in all things and a regular life out
of doors as much as possible.
Dirt, dust, dampness and drink pre-
dispose to consumption.
Ii taken early, tuberculosis can be
cured; if neglected, it is almost always
fatal.
The campaign against tuberculosis il
simply worldwide united effort to put
the above principles into actual practice.
Were this done, tuberculosis in few
years could be eliminated.
The crusade SO far has accomplished |
much. Our death rate in New York |
City from pulmonary tuberculosis is over |
80 per cent. less than it was twelve years
ago
tuberculosis is therefore pre- eminently |
a social disease and can only be over
come by the action of social forces.
Many OF the above facts already were
known to most of our readers who have
been brought in somewhat close ac
quaintance with tuberculosis, but all of
us are apt to minimize the danger and
become careless of the simple safeguards
as the keenness of the revelations con-
corning the disease become dulled by
time. Therefore, it is necessary that
our minds be stirred up now and then,
IS we hope the reprinting of the above
statements will arouse them. All of the
lbove safeguards are within reach of
nearly everyone-well people and the
'iekly; and no person is so strong physi-
ally as TO be able to disregard the warn.

A Stone Eater.

The oldest diet in the world is
stones. In an old volume of the Gen
;leman's Magazine is described the dis.
covery of n stone eater sin a northern
inhabited island by the crew of a
Dutch ship. They brought him to
France in May, 176o, where he was
submitted to all kinds OF scientific
tests. 1t was proved that he throve
better on stones than on any other
food. and his dinner usually consisted
Of large sized flints. with powdered
marbles for dessert. He became a
great ATTRACTION at fashionable gather
ings, where he amused the guests by
swallowing stones and afterward con-
vincing them that there was no decep-
ton by making them rattle in his
stomach.-London Chronicle.

VERMONT PROGRESS IN LITERAcY

VERMONT PROGRESS IN LITERACY
While a great deal of criticism is
being brought against Vermont's schools
the cold figures just prepared by the
United States census bureau tell us that
the percentage of illiteracy in Vermont
dropped from IS per cent. in 1900 to
81 per cent. in 1910. By actual fig
uress there are l0,s06 illiterates in Yer
mont-those who are unable to write,
according to the bureaus standard From
these figures one is inclined to the belief
that while Vermont's public school sys-
tenn is far from perfect it nevertheless
is doing remarkably well in reaching out
for all classes of people. The states
position with regard to illiterates has
been far from enviable within recent
years, but the advance made during the
past ten years is calculated to bring the
state out of the low place which it has
occupied in the tabulation of the entire
country. And the gratifying progress
