All Europe is at present interested
in the contest with tuberculosis. A
French paper calls attention to an
overlooked territory where there IL

This is French Guinea, where the
ravages of the white plague are worse

one physician found that FL negroes

only two per cent were infected.

quantities of furfurol and aldenyde.
These are brought by German

the significant name of gin boats.

land from invasion. a condition which
military men say always adds sub
tie something to the fighting quality
which is in any man. Some authori-
ties have said that there were 100000
men in the Confederate forces at Get
tysburg to be confronted by 10000
Union troops. Another authority says
that the Confederate force was $4,000
and the Union force $4,000. As 1t was
the armies were pretty nearly equally
divided in strength.
In June, 1863, General Robert E.
Lee began to move northward. Lee
concentrated his army at Winchester.
Va. and then started for the Potomac
river, which he crossed to reach the
state of Maryland. He fully expected
to be followed by General Hooker's
army and so General Stuart with a
large force Of cavalry was ordered by
Lee to keep in front of Hooker's army
and to check his pursuit Of the Con-
federates If 1t was attempted.
Late in June the Confederate force
reached Hagerstown. in the state of
MARYLAND. II was General Lees In
tention to strike Harrisburg, Pa.
which was a great railroad center
and city where Union armies were
recruited and from which all kinds OF
supplies were sent out to the soldiers
in the field. While the Southern COM
mander was on his way with a large
part of his force to the Pennsylvania
capital another part of his command
was ordered to make its way into the
Susquehanna Valley through the town
of Gettysburg and then to turn In Its
course after destroying railroads and
gathering In supplies, and to meet the
Confederate commander with the main
army at Harrisburg.
1t was General Jubal A. Early OF
General Lees command, who reached
Gettysburg after a long hard march
on June 26. From there he went to
the town OF York and from thence to
Wrightsville. At this place he was
ordered by General Lee to retrace his
steps and to bring his detachment
back to a camp near Gettysburg.

This also helps to solve the cottage

city women are accustomed to living

the plan of having all the rooms on
one floor; it saves climbing up and
down stairs. The difficulty. however,
has always been to get rooms enough.
You cannot spread out very far in
fiat, and you cannot spread a cottage
house very wide without running into
considerable expense. This is what
led architects to turn back about
hundred years to first principles. and
