is done, one hand holds by this bent
end while the other guides the knife

Along with these tools there are
quite number of needles, one of
which is shown below the scraper. All
the needles are made of stone-jade
mostly. and are too heavy of course
for any fine work. such as we use
needles for, but they will do for sew

Cupid Afoul of French Law

once more an International marriage
has been annulled by the French courts.
Foreign women have been hundreds OF
times warned against marrying French
men abroad without ascertaining that
the French law has been complied with.
but they seem to go on doing IT,
In the present case, the husband is now
dead The widow. an English woman,
left with two children and without means
of livelihood, sued her husbands father
for an allowance of $50 a month The
French courts have both rejected her
petition and annulled the marriage, thus
declaring that the two children were IL
legitimate, on the ground that the late
husband married his wife under English
Jaw only, and not under French law, that
he was under % at the time, and had not
obtained his fathers consent TO the mar
rfage, and finally, that the marriage cele-
brated at Dover was never registered ir
France.
The court therefore, decided that no
legal kinship exists between the widow
and her two children on the one hand
and her late husbands family on the
other. and that she has. in consequence
no claim upon the latter for support.

More Plague Scares

Doctors are every day discovering new
perils to our health. and the latest is
that of the clothes brush. How rag-pick-
ers are usually the picture of health, and
escape all sorts of maladies. is a WON
Ger. They may pick with immunity the
most deadly infections rags out of an ash
bin, but If other people touch them, and
especially brush them. they are in danger
or some fatal contagion. The simple act
or brushing out the clothes of some in
valid may be mortal This is especially
the case with tuberculosis. The bacilli
dry up and become harmless in Is days,
but in the early stages they may be very
Vlrulent. and by brushing coat or other
piece of clothing, worn by a patient, or
which has simply touched infectious mat
ter, these bacilli may be scattered In the
air and become infectious. DR.. Chausse,

matter with three guinea pigs, found that
they were all contaminated after three or
four days. Pieces of cloth that were

Par1s, July 26.-(Special. )-The
French Academy of Medicine has de-
cided to recommend the government
to make the notification of tubercu-
Iosis compulsory. Discussion on this
point has been carried on with more
or less vehemence since last October,
as the attempt to make the notnca-
ton of tuberculosis compulsory has
reused all the conservatism OF the
French people and the French doctors.
People dislixed the idea of interfer-
ence with their private life and feared
that tuberculous families might be-
come social pariahs. while the doctors,
for professional reasons, feared the IN
trusion of the sanitary inspector. At a
sitting of the Academy of Medicine the
motion of DIR. Roux. director of the
Pasteur institute. was finally adopted
by large majority. The motion de-
clared that 1t was in the interests of
the public that every case of recog-
nized tuberculosis should be compul-
sorily notified so soon as the diagnosis
was established. 1t insisted that the
notification to be made to the sanitary
officer should be regarded as a pro-
fessional secret and that the author
tiles should undertake once the noti-
fcation has been made. to provide as
distance both for the diseased persons
AMI for their families If necessitous.
The adoption of this motion by the
Academy of Medicine marks great
stride in tho progress of hygiene in
France. Il is estimaed that nearly
one-severth of the deaths In France
are due tc this scourge and now that
the academy has pronounced In favor
of compulsory notification, it is hoped
that the government will at once take
steps to make this decision effective.
