CATTLE QUARANTINE LIFTED.
Nearly 10000 Square Miles of South
ern Territory Are Affected.

By order of the acting secretary of
agriculture, nearly 10000 square miles Of
new territory will be released from the
southern cattle quarantine September 1.
This quarantine has been maintained for
years against the southern cattle infected
with the ticks which carry the Texas
fever. There has been a crusade for
cleaning up the tick-infected territory
carried on since 1906 and nearly 200, GOO
Of the 100000 square miles Of quarantined
territory have already been declared tick
free and released. This has vastly in
creased the value of southern cattle in
the cleared territory and is increasing the
meat supply, which eventually will tend
to reduce the price of meat.
At present, however, the meat outlook,
according to the bureau of animal indus
try, is bad owing to the drought OF the
past summer in the middle and southwest
and the high price of stock feed, which
increases the cost Of carrying cattle
through the winter.

CHURCH FOR HEALTH LIFT.
Virginia Official Declares in Bulletin
for Co-Qneratiye Work.

That the church should lead the way in
trying to make mankind healthy is the
thought expressed by DR.. Ennion w.
Williams. health commissioner of Vir-
ginia, in bulletin just issued by the
United States bureau Of education.
1.-THE first means of cooperation on the
part of the church is in preaching the
dignity of the human person, the sanctity
of the individual body he says. This
will enable the church to justify the
health officer in his demand for a SAM
tary community-will, indeed, make that
demand irresistibly logical. If the body
is sacred, then the body deserves a SAM
tary surrounding and depends upon 1t.
The permanence Of our fight for better
health must rest, in part at least, upon
an awakened public conscience which will
view disease as second only to sin. clean
illness as next to goodness.
mo social agency is more earnest in
it's demands upon the church for cooper
alton than public health, and no agency
offers greater return for such co-opera-
tion," says DR.. Williams at another point.
public health asks the church to join
hands with it in giving men better bodies
and 1t promises that when mems bodies
shall be stronger their spirits will be
nobler. Public health asks the church
to assist it in making sanitary the COM
munity to which the church ministers;
and it pledges the experience of the world
to show that when this is done none will
benefit more than the church. Other
things equal, the healthy man is the
moral man, and the sanitary community
is the spiritual community.

PLANS NEW BUILDING.
Commissioner Ewing Gets Hints fol
Proposed Patent Office.

Plans for a new building which will
adequately house the United States
patent office, as authorized by a joint
resolution adopted in Congress prior to
the tariff session, are being pushed by
Commissioner of Patents Thomas
Ewing. The commissioner of patents is
designated as one Of committee in
Guiding the Secretary Of the Interior
and the supervising architect of the
Treasury to make the plans.
Mr.. Ewing, preparatory to taking the
matter up and urging it upon the re-
turn Of Secretary Lane, has commune
Gated with President Robolski of the
imperial German pa mt office and with
Temple Franks of the British patent
office. asking them for the plans of
their institutions, with q view of con-
sidering what has been done by other
nations in bringing their offices up to
date.
In the patent issue of today is the
first patent to bear the signature of the
new commissioner. 1t is number
1,O70.534 and was issued to Harry Nc

than 1 can see." said another suffrage
leader Nearly every one of these idle,
parasitic women, who, according to Sena-
tor Tillman, are endangering the life of
the nation, are like the senator, opposed
to woman suffrage.
immortality has been a problem the
world over throughout history. The rule
of man doesn't seem to have solved it,
and now that twentieth century condi-
tons are increasing it somewhat, the at
tempt is made to lay the blame at the
door of woman. And the problem never
will be solved until men and women work
together at it's solution. The legislation
that has been secured recently in Cali
fornia and other equal suffrage states is
at least a step toward mitigating the evil,
and in many states where there is only
male suffrage not even first steps have
been taken"

CALL T|LLMAN SPEECH
FOOLISH STATEMENTS"
Suffragist Leaders Here De-
clare Ballot Does Not
Increase Divorce.

Prompt reply to the attack on woman
suffrage, made in the Senate yesterday
by Senator Tillman. came from leaders in
the suffragist camp. Several "votes for
women advocates were in the Senate
gallery when he made his address.
1T Is too bad said Mrs. Emma Smith
De Voc, president of the National Coun-
Gil Of Woman Voters, that man like
Senator Tillman should so allow his
prejudices to control him as to lead him
to make the foolish statements he made
in the Senate.
Imagine a man of sense claiming that
there is a connection between the in
crease of divorce and woman suffrage. 1t
is very foolish. He should remember that
in Wyoming, where women have voted
since 1859, there was a lower percentage
of divorce until last year than in any
other state in the Union.

However. the story has gone over

paper clippings even from remote

There are black ants and white ants
and piebald ants and ants of the

The mere fact that the most of the
old building has had the interior re-
placed with iron and concrete con-
struction makes no difference in the
ravages of the ants, and for years the
mail has brought at intervals receipts
for the suppression and destruction of
the mythical ant host And the worst
of it is, the officials say. that none of
these receipts seems to be any good so
long as the newspapers insist on re-
