NEW YORK, Feb. 6.--The confer
ence of delegates appointed by the
governors Of ten Eastern and Middle
States called by the New York milk
committee, recommended today at
their final meeting at the Academy OF
Medicine THAT tuberculin tests of all
cattle shall be made compulsory as a
preventive health measure.
They recommended the testing OF
cattle shall be under the control of the
individual State. and that eventually
the federal government should CO.
operate with the State authorities to
enforce the examinations In instances
where milk Is produced for shipment
into another State.
This measure is to cope with a sit
uation similar to that which exists in
New York city, which draws its milk
supply from seven different States
1t was also recommended that In
instances where cattle were siaugh-
tered because they we're infected with
lgeneralixed tuberculosis. there should
be no indemnity paid by the State. but
in instances where the disease waa
not general the delegates recon-
mended that the owner be repaid in

leel that they are supplying a public demand

for these personal selections is heavy the

A Startling Fact

came to our attention today. It
follows: Statistics show that only
5per cent of the men of sixty years
OF age have enough money laid by
that they may live their remaining
years in comfort. 95 per cent Of all
the men in America are dependent
at the age of sixty upon their chill
dren, their daily wages; or charity.
Do NOT BE AMONG THE
95 PER CENT!

the amount be small, regular sums

TO BURNS FOR RELIEF.

Driven to Bobbie Burns for alienation Of dis
tress OF mind. brought about by the declaration
of a twentytwo-year- old wife that she had never
kissed husband, baby. father, mother or anyone
else, and never expected to kiss anyone, because
she does not believe In the delightful practice,
the Lynchburg Netos quotes the following:
Some say kissing's sin:
But L think it's name ava
For kissing has wonn'd in this warld
Since ever that there was twa.
oh. IL 1t wasna Lawful,
Lawyers wadna allow It;
If II holy.
Ministers wadna do 1t;
II it wasna modest,
Maidens wadna TAX IT.
If 1t wasna plenty,
Puir folks wadna get II.
Mrs George Deems, of Baltimore, never read
Burns. She could not appreciate him If she did.
1t Ia not surprising that any one who could
think of health and germs while contemplating
osculatory indulgence should refrain, for any one
who can think Of such things at such a time has
1t not within one to feel emotion OF any kind.
That her evidence in court on the subject of
kissing should have suggested recourse to the
Scotch maker of love lyrics for relief from a
feeling of contempt for her, not unmixed with
genuine pity, was but natural though far be 1t
from us to think that the editor OF the Neacs
needed spiritual support for his convictions on
the subject OF kissing
