FOOT-AND- MOUTH DISEASE
Quarantines Do Not Interfere With The
Poultry Market.

The rise in price of poultry of all kinds
which is reported to have taken place in
various States can not, in the opinion of
experts in the Department of Agricul-
ture, be in any way attributed to the
outbreak of the foot-and- mouth disease.
This disease does not affect poultry at
all, and the Federal quarantines of var
ious States-fourteen in all-now lay no
embargo upon shipments of poultry.
1t is true that when a case of foot-and-
mouth disease is found upon a farm that
farm is absolutely qlarantined bv the
State or local authorities. No produce
of any sort can leave it, the owner is not
even permitted to drive his horses on the
public highway, and in some cases his
children are not allowed to 90 to school
until the exposed stock have been done
away with and the entire premises thor
oughly disinfected. Since the disease,
moreover, is readily communicated from
farm to farm by cats, dogs, poultry, and
human beings, the local authorities exer-
else their own discretion in determining
what restrictions should be placed upon
shipments of produce from the area in
the immediate vicinity of the infected /
farm These areas are so limited in ex-
tent however, that the amount of poul. !
try that NAV thus be prevented from I
reaching the market is an inappreciable |
per centage of the total supply. Poultry /
from the uuinfected areas in the various /
9uarantined States can be moved freely 4
without the least danger of spreading I
The disease or of injuring the health Of .

The career of Sir Rufus Isaacs, the
new Lord Chief Justice OF England
and the first of his race ever SO non
ored in Great Britain, may be taken
as a positive support of the plea of
youth-idling From teachers point
of view the present lord chief JUS
tice was "the very worst of boys,
and practically irredeemable." Les
sons he left unlearned, class work he
shirked, and mischief was his only
devotion. Nor was the miscellaneous
ness only in himself. He delighted in
inspirine others in his wicked ways.
He was a demoniac, young mischieV-
Gus imp, with sparkling eyes, who
was always in Disgrace or being
eaned. and vet, withal, was very
merry and deliciously humorous.
Isaac Seeundus. you will go to the
devil" was the representation oft
repeated by his schoolmaster
Sir Rufus, indeed, had "a very check
cred career. The son of a city mer-
chant, he was brought up to become
a clerk in a store; but this was not
at all to his taste. So he simply ran
away, and, being very fond of the
sea. he shipped as cabin boy on
an East India trader. This was II
hard experience for the carefully
raised Jewish lad. but he stuck to it
until he got chance to run away.
Returning to Londonthe entered the
brokerage office of his cousin. There
he pretty soon showed great apti-
tude, especially to actions. This led
the hayward youth to study CONNER
cal and financial law, which he mas
tered to such a degree that he soon
acquired a remarkable practise among
the big banking houses of the city"

Cancer and It's Remedies.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Are we on the verge of discovering
the long-sought cure for cancer, one
of the most terrible of tho physical
scourges from which man has suf-
fered? What the answer to that
question means may best be realized
by recalling the estimate of author
tiles that one person in every ten in
the United States over fifty years of
age suffers from cancer The atten-
ton of the whole world is fixed to-
day on the possibility that radium
may cure this dread disease. Scien-
fists are wisely conservative in
speaking of results. Such remedial
effects as have already been secured,
they point out, have been secured
only in superficial eases, and they
the fact that only in the
earliest stages of superficial cancer
has relief been secured. 1t is yet to
be demonstrated that even this re-
lief is permanent. 1t is also to be
borne in mind that the whole worlds
supply of the precious metal is so
comparatively infinitesimal-there are
only two grams of it at present avail
BILE in this country-that it is i'm
possible for more than very small
of cancer sufferers to re-
ceive the treatment.

it was within a stones throw of the

Hamilton Fish / found that it

Then | looked at the house which

a handsome building. The Hoffman

told my uncle that l was certain
that IN the course of ten or fifteen
years this Second avenue house would
be worth double the money he paid
for 1t. But, on the other hand. the
Broadway and Fifth avenue house
would, I thought, never be worth
much, If anything more than the
sum ne would have to pay for it.
so uncle bought the Second ave
