Dear Doctor: I am a young man
"a years Of age; live on farm and
do ordinary farm work. Eight years
ago had pneumonia, from which I
seemed to recover all right. Last
spring had a severe cold and
coughed a good deal, also had quite
a little pain in my chest, especially
on the left side. Have had several
attacks Of asthma since. Doctors
used the tuberculin test, which show
ed a positive reaction. Have been
advised to eat lots of fats and rich
foods. I feel good and cough but
little. .. HB.
Your symptoms look suspicious.
Don't take chances with consump-
ton, but begin now to ward it off. It
is best to be on the safe side. Get a
fever thermometer and take your
temperature from 1 p. m. every two
hours till bedtime. Also take it the
first thing in the morning. Do this
for two or three days, making notes
Of the readings. Take deep breath
ing exercises at least two or three
times daily. Sleep with your bed
room windows open, and as soon as
spring comes sleep out Of doors all
the time. Do not eat any more fats
and rich foods than you normally do,
as they would quite likely upset"
your digestive organs. Eat all you
care to Of the foods that you know
agree with you, and keep out of
doors. The articles in Vol. No. 2, of
the Club books, on consumption
would be Of great assistance to you.
Let me hear from you again soon.

LdSI 1ueSuay evening our DaSKeC
ball team went down to defeat at the
hands Of the Park Region college
team. Although our team put up a
very good fight, they were not able to
cope with the science, height and
weight of the visitors, hence the
score 81 to 26. But good winners
must be game losers, and we are glad
to say that our boys showed that to
be fact. A large and enthusiastic
crowd was present at the game.

payne is THE drink of the evening.
Even the humblest $l5 per clerk Or
dersF champagne. Not to do It would
put him. down q a cheap skate, q
piker, a provincial! And SO the corks
fly in every direction, and toasts to
everything and everybody is drunk.
It is estimated that 800, 900 quarts Of
champagne is done away with on this
big night. What that means in mon
ey, or misery or headaches, concerns
nobody. Anyone int rested in the SER
ious side Of life has no place among
these jewellers. You are either with
them, or you are not. There is no
halfway between. *.= .ss SIR:
Our party had table at The Bres-
lin. We were not in touch with the
spirit, and we had come only to catch
a glimpse of the crowd and their do
ings. But we left early. To us there
was something repellent about all
these painted and powdered and
pampered ladies, these stale, coarse,
vulgar men, all trying to forget. To-
morrow? It has not come yet--we
don't even know that it will come,
nor do we care. So let us eat, drink
and be merry.
Of course they were not all like
that. God forbid. But the crowd,
the vast majority of the celebrating
throng, was Of the kind mentioned.
In ChurchilPs' restaurant there was
a special cabaret performance, and
at midnight a fanfare Of trumpets,
sounded by men in costumes Of her
aids, welcomed the new year. At
Bustanoby's, paper parasols and
military caps were provided for the
guests. Just before midnight, the
Old Year, personifed by an old man,
entered and took a seat at table.
In a quavering voice he demanded
something to eat, and large covered
platter was brought in by two wait
ers. When they lifted the cover, a
little dancer, clad in white, jumped
out and pelted the Old Year with
roses until he fed into another room
and disappeared. .< ="
This is only a sample. And in the
meantime, 500 special police were
graphing with the crowds between
33rd and 10th streets and Broadway,
trying to keep them all moving, and
endeavoring to arrest the worst Of
the ruffians. Dust, confetti, ticklers,
horns, coarse remarks and jests, in
suits to peaceful citizens and women,
threats to murder the police, the vile
stencil of whiskey or beer-for most
Of this crowd can't afford champagne
and they MUST drink something
all this makes a picture Of the kind
you hope to forget.
Yes, there was one relief for the
picture. Here and there in the parks
bands played hymns and crowds
stood and listened. Once in a while
you come unexpectedly upon choir
straining themselves to be- heard.
And at Madison Square there is q
Municipal Christmas tree, IS feet
high, and with $500 vari- colored
lights shining among its branches,
On special stand band played
hymns from various countries while
famous singers sing the songs OF
many tongues. Yes, there is hope
A hope that some day "safe and sane
and kind" can be applied to the riot

Eve. The seed was small, but it is
planted, and it will some day bear

HOME HEALTH CLUB
by DR.. DAVID n. FEEDER

er said, eve have no cellar, you see
we are practically on the top Of a
small mountain, and there is only a
few feet of soil here, then comes
solid rock.
"When the house was built they
started to dig a cellar and stopped at
the rock, and there is nothing but a
hole under the house," I insisted
upon seeing the hole, however, and
l found in it about Is inches of dirty
slimey water, covered with green
scum. There was direct drainage
from the back door to this cesspool
and as slops were thrown from the
kitchen for the chickens, each rain
washed the refuse under the house.
The young woman's bed was not ov-
er six feet above this vile mass of
filth.
Then I examined the we'll: I was
assured that they had the finest wa
ter in the country. 1t was clear as
crystal and as cold as one could de-
sire. They had blasted through the
rock and dug down over SO feet to a
beautiful supply and the walls were
lined with cobble stones. The top
was we'll covered with planks and an
extra pailful was always pumped out
and thrown away before using. There
again I found source Of pollution.
The house it was trues was on top Of
a hill, but around the we'll for several
rods the ground was level. For years
the extra pailful of water had been
thrown in the same place and a little
puddle had been formed where the
chickens and ducks got their water
supply. A little hard digging soon
showed a well defined black streak
through the clay just over the rock
and the dirty water oozing slowly
through to the natural draining made
by the we'll.
The mother was the only one in
the family who had not been sick.
Upon inquiry I found that she never
drank water. Tea and milk she used
freely and the tea was very weak
and the water Of which it was made
was always boiled.
I ordered all Of the water to be at
once removed from under the house
and then carbolic acid solution was
used freely, several gallons Of it, af-
ter which the hole was completely
filled. The puddle at the we'll was
treated in the same way and then a
dozen loads of gravel raised the
ground around the pump, after which
a cement floor was laid all around it
for ten feet in all directions, with a
cement gutter to carry away the
waste for a hundred feet to the barn
lot. From that point there was a
rapid fall and contamination was
rendered impossible.
All this was done too late to save
the daughter, but since then the
father and brother have been well
and many Of their neighbors have
been able to profit by their sad ex-
perience.
In the next article I will tell of
conditions as found them on farm
in the center Of the U. S., and later
Of village where doctors have
grown rich, but had to move away to
save their own families.

National Cash Register Company to
Show Colored Pictures Of
: 5#zz Wonderful Work. T.

What promises to be one Of the
most interesting lectures ever given
in Willmar will be shown at the Will
mar Opera House next Tuesday and
Wednesday.
The story Of the reclaiming Of an
unattractive suburb, undesirable for
homes, is told by means Of colored
slides and motion pictures.
The method Of transforming a dis
reputable section Of city Of the
middle west into an attractive SUI
burb was so simple that it enlisted
the cooperation Of not only the men
and women, but the children as well.
7. All this work started through the
interest taken by The National Cash
Register Company in lettering the
working conditions around its fac
tory.
Women played SO great part in
bringing about the new order of
things and in changing squaid old
Slidertown into attractive South Park
that the women of Willmar as well
as the business men and those inter
ested in civic Improvement will gain
an inspiration from the lecture.
Citizens Of Willmar are fortunate
in having this lecture, as requests
for it have been made by many civic
Improvement associations, chambers
of commerce. schools and societies
in cities and towns from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. There are only four
towns in Minnesota outside of the
large cities where this lecture is Civ
en-.
The first pictures taken by cam
era to show natural colors in NOV
ing pictures in the United States will
be shown. All are invited. Admis-

You are cordially invited to attend.
The above is the official call as
formulated by the promoters of this
conference, and should be given wide
publicity. ~. .-..:..:. ~ 80. e ~.
That this conference will be inter-
esting and Of considerable import
ance, is foregone conclusion. It is
called at an opportune time when
there is strong feeling among all
classes that there ought to be closer
relations between organizations, hay-
ing interests in common. The need
Of correlation, and cooperation of
the now scattered forces will bring
about far reaching and beneficial re-
suits.
There is a multiplicity of organi-
cations and societies in this state,
having much in common, and yet
they are isolated, and in a measure
working almost in opposition to one
another. Take the farmer and the
laboring class, they have their or
CARNATIONS working Independently,
each desiring to secure advantages
for themselves. There is common
interest, however, which should be
better understood and appreciated,
and there is mutual relation exist
ing between these two big forces,
which up to the present time there
has been no systematic or organized
effort to unity. The result Of this
meeting will be to bring about more
direct intercourse between these two
large bodies. The aim today is to
secure more economic exchange of
products. These questions will be
taken up an discussed in an orderly
manner at the coming conference,
and an effort made to solve the prob
leo. It may be that legislation, will
be needed and it might be stated that
a committee including some Of the
ablest men in the State, are now at
work on a report covering these vital
questions, which will come before the
conference. With these statements
and information; it is hoped that the
conference will be given the support
and publicity it deserves.
