WILL BE EXPENDED WISELY
Statement Showing How the Proceeds
Of Sale Of Red Cross Seals
Are to Be Spent.

For the benefit OF the numerous or
ganlzations who helped to sell near
ly forty-five million Red Cross seals
last year and for the general public,
the American Red Cross and the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention OF tuberculosis have
framed a definition of anti-tuberculo-
sis work showing how the proceeds
from these holiday stickers are to be
used. The definition limits the expen-
diture of money only for the year
ending April 80, 1915.
The definition was framed at re-
cent meeting of the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis and states that the term
"anti-tuberculosis work. as 1t relates
to the expenditure of Red Cross seal
money shall include the following ac-
tiVities:
l. The construction Of hospitals or
sanatoria for the care of the tubercu-
lous.
2. The maintenance Of the tubercu-
lous.
3. The provision of day or night
camps for the tuberculous; the provi-
sion and maintenance of dispensarles,
visiting nurses, open air schools fresh
air classes, or preventoria for the care
or treatment of tuberculosis cases or
for the prevention Of the spread of tu-
berculosis.
I. The maintenance of educational
or legislative activities which have for
their object the prevention of infection
with tuberculosis.

Inventor of the Alrbrake.

Who really invented the airbrake ?
Certainly the automatic airbrake, the
one that has proved practicable and of
permanent value in modern railroad
ing, was the product Of the late George
Westinghouse ingenuity. His patent
for the automatic brake was taken out
in 1872, superseding the non-automatic
or straight" Westinghouse airbrake
patented In 1869, and later the West
inghouse vacuum brake was invented.
But, as in the case Of most other in.
ventions, there are several claimants
for originality In this field. Thus,
Nine. NJ. Drouane, daugheer OF M.
Debruges Of Paris, claims the distinc-
ton OF priority for her father. The
New York Times has letter from
State Senator William p. Ffero OF
White Plains containing patent office
declaration by his grandfather, Henry
Miller, OF new and useful improve
ment In the application Of steam and
compressed air to the purpose OF OPP
Grating railroad brakes" recorded Jan
uary 2, 1855. Mr.. Miller was doubt
less a pioneer In the progress OF air
brake invention.

Empty Titles.

The emperor of Austria, 1t has been
noted, lays claim to the title marquis
of Antwerp. If all European SOW
ereigns could make good their minor
territorial titles there would, indeed,
be a reconstruction of the map. The
king Of Italy, for instance, is officially
styled king of Sardinia, France. Spain
and England, of Italy and Jerusalem,
of Greece and Alexandria of Hamburg
and Sicily, Master of the Deep. King of
the Earth. The king of Spain also
claims to be king of Jerusalem, king
of Galicia Ia title shared with the en-
peror of Austria), and, in addition,
king of Gibraltar, of the West Indies
and of India.

The Bridal rousseau.

The old idea of providing brides
with score or more of gowns, wraps
and hats has quite gone by. Even the
fashionable trousseau of today con-
tains no more than a dozen gowns, II
as many. Styles change so fast that
by fall the gowns for the June we'd
ding, necessarily made some weeks be-
fore the ceremony, begin to look odd.
Some authority has declared that the
best dressed woman in Paris buys no
more than three new toilets each year,
but the opinion may be ventured that
she is altering her last years supply
most OF the time. The vast assort-
ments of lingerie have also dwindled.
Nobody provides such a multitudinous
wedding outfit nowadays as used to be

EIahtIna the White plaque.

Adequate hospital facilities for the
$4,000 residents of Ohio who are suf.
fering from tuberculosis has been de-
cided upon by the prevention of tuber-
culosis and officials of the state board
of health. 1t is proposed to create IL
hospital districts of from four to six
counties each, wherein campaigns will
be inaugurated for the erection of dis
trict tuberculosis hospitals to be main
tanned Jointly by the cooperating
counties.
Through the erection Of these ~
district hospitals, supplementing the

workers believe that the $4,000 vic
tins will be adequately cared for, and
that the people of the state will be
so we'll protected through this hospi-
talization that eventually Ohios death
rate Of 1000 per year will be reduced
