How tuberculosis Is Spread.

Based on figures obtained from
cases of tuberculosis reported in
Cleveland, New York and other cities
where thorough registration of con-
sumptives is employed, it is esti-
mated that for every death from con-
sumption in the United States, OF
which there are on an average 200,-
900 annually, there are constantly
more than five living cases, making
at least 100000 in all. Of these mil.
lion living cases, it is estimated that
the health authorities have records Of
not more than 100000 to 10000. or
one in every eight or ten, and that,
for the great majority of cases re-
corded no hospital, home or dis
pensary care is provided Practically
nothing can be done to control the
spread of tuberculosis in the unre'
ported cases.

London, May 9-Swift reprisals
came from the militant suffragists
following the defeat of the bill giving

The arson squad and the bomb
squad were quickly at work Police
precaution had been greatly increased
in anticipation of retaliation, but the
women plotters were too adroit.
Manifestations of suffTagette ter

Planting of an Internal machine in

tain.
Bomb placed in the er*yance to 2

tant suffragettes. The verger who
conducts sight-seers through the mas

The defeat OF the woman suffrage
bill in the house of commons is gen
orally attributed by the newspapers
to the women themselves-the mill
tant ones, whose lawbreaking tactics
alienated the sy1lpathies OF suffrage
supporters.

PHTH|S|S CURE HIT
UNITED STATES EXPERTS CAN
NOT ENDORSE FRlEDMANN'S
VACCINE.
GIVES WARNING TO PATIENTS
Physicians Declare Experiments So
Far "Do Not Justify Confidence in
Remedy Which Has Been inspired
by Widespread Publicity"

Washington, May 12.-In the opin-
ion of the government surgeons who
have been investigating the condition
of patients that were inoculated by
DR.. Frederick F. friedman with his
tuberculosis vaccine the observations
do not justify that confidence, in the
remedy which has been inspired by
the widespread publicity given the
cure"
This first official conclusion from
the tests was announced here Satur-
day before the National Association
for the Study and Prevention of Tu-
berculosis by DR.. John f. Anderson,
director of the governments hygienic
laboratory, and DR.. A. M. Stimson,
another public health surgeon, who
were assigned to observe the prog
ress of the Friedman patients at
Mount Sinai hospital in New York.
I'VE believe that at the present
time says their report. 1--WE are not
in position to express an opinion
based on the conditions under obser-
walton. The disease for which the
remedy is used is prolonged and is
characterized by periods of advance
ment and retrogression. 1t is also one
in which psychic influences are a pow
erful factor. Time is therefore neces-
sary to evaluate properly the effect of
therapeutic measures. Without pre-
senting in detail the condition Of pa
TENTS under observation, we are in a
position to state that the facts thus
far observed do not justify that con-
fidence in the remedy which has been
inspired by widespread publicity.
TN our opinion harm may have
been done by this undue publicity in
SO far as it has lessened the conf
dence of tubercular persons in we'll
recognized methods of treatment or
interrupted their use, and we are con-
strained to advise against any lessen
ing OF those well-known measures
which not only had effected cures but
which have reduced the incidence OF
the disease.
In our series of patients, Dr. Fried
mann has almost exclusively made
use of the intramuscular method alone
in pulmonary cases, and a very con-
siderable proportion of them have
either developed no considerable in
filtrate at all or have suffered from
abscess formations. 1t is evident,
therefore, that very considerable por-
ton of these patients, may expect
their treatment at the hand of DR..
friedman to extend over long
period
Concerning the cultures submitted
to us, we may state that series of
experiments is under way. The
bacillus has been found to be an acid
fast organism having having proper
ties quite different from those of any
tubercle bacillus with which we are
acquainted.
I'VE requested Dr. Friedman to
furnish us with a large amount Of
this material for examination. but
this he has declined to do. We can
state, however, that living acid fast
bacteria are being injected by the In.
stramuscular and intravenous meth
cd, although we are ignorant of what
medium they are suspended in or
what additional substance or sub
stances may be contained in the final
mixture"

A clergyman who preached to con-
gregation of young people recently
selected as the subject of his dis
course, after Marriage-What?" and
gave several excellent practical sug-
gestions. One was that every mar
ried couple should recognize as a
paramount duty tlreir duty toward
each other. Another was that they
should keep up honeymoon courtesy,
end still another that they should es-
tablish home of their own. BE it
ever so humble" he insisted, "a
home of their own should be the fixed
purpose of every young couple after
L-arriage." 1t is a safe assertion
that no connubial venture conducted
on these principles will come to wreck
upon the rock of divorce.

When Hannibal was besieging Rome
there were those among the inhabi-
tants who bought and paid good prices
for the land on which his army was
encamped. That was the spirit that
made the ancient Romans rulers of the
world. Americans on many occasions
have displayed the same splendid cour-
age and confidence in the face of
danger. They showed it in Chicago in
1871 by planning to rebuild before the
ashes were cold after the great fire.
They showed it at San Francisco, after
earthquake and coneagration had done
their worst, and they are showing it
at Omaha amid the ruin and desola-
ton following the onslaught of the
tornado.

WIS,

MORAL INFLUENCE OF CLOTHES.
Let not the fippant speak lightly
OF the suggestion that the way to re-
form women in prisons is to give them
corsets and pretty clothes. The feni-
nine philosopher who propounded this
road 10 redemption was entirely sound
IN saying that there is no reform
without self-respect, and the relation
between self-respect and being well
dressed is intimate, says the Philadel-
phia Record. 1t was another feminine
philosopher, one from Boston, who said
that the cons ciousness of being well
dressed impaired a peace of mind
which not even the consultations Of re-
ligion could give. The warden who
thinks a woman is no worse when a
corset is taken of her and no better
when one is put on, perhaps forgets
that in his own prison the convicts do
not wear striped clothes, and the
wardens OF some other penal institu-
lions are putting on the convicts plain
clothes under which it is possible for
a sense of self-respect to grow. The
cropping of the hair and the lockstep
have been abolished from several pris-
ons to avert the psychological effect of
a personal appearance that is incom-
patible with selfrespect. There is
more in this idea OF giving women
prisoners corsets and pretty clothes
than some of the penologists, social
reformers and physicians interviewed
thereon recognize.
