AMIISE-U THEATRE.

The pictures at the Amuse-U have
been satisfactory to even a number of
cold folks" who are regular attend
ants, as we'll as to the youngsters.
The room is comfortably warmed
these cool nights. If the owner could
see it to their interest to lay n new
floor and close up the large cracks in
the floor, the attendance would in
crease. Some folks are afraid to risk
an airy, drafty room these cool nights.
The amusement lovers demand reason
able comfort, or they will decline to
be amused Fix the floor.

TAXING JEWELS.

A unique method of assessing prop
erty among the wealthy has been
adopted by the assessors in Cincinnati.
Each day clerks run through the soci-
ETY. columns of the newspapers and
pick out the items about the society
events where costly jewels were worn.
The jewels are then indeXed under
the names OF the owners. Already,
personal property worth millions of
dollars, which was hitherto untaXed,
has been placed on the lists.
Apparently this means that the cost
ly personal property of the exclusive
sets" will be taxed hereafter. This
wealth, which is least productive and
which should by all means be taxed,
will no longer remain ''taX-dodgible." 5"

PREVENTION AGAINST CURE.

A Kansas University professor pro-
poses to eliminate typhoid fever from
the catalogue of Kansas ills by vacci-
mating all children of the state. 1t is
doubtful if he can make vaccination
compulsory, but every person that
he persuadeS to be vaccinated will de-
crease the percentage of deaths from
typhoid.
Unpleasant memories associated
with vaccination for small poX may
cause some persons to hesitate to ac-
cept the typhoid vaccination. But
the effects are scarcely noticeable when
one is immunized from typhoid. The
cost of vaccination and the slight in
convenience which it may cause are
small when one thinks of the results
of an attack of typhoid.

EDUCATING FOR HEALTH.

A new line Of specialization has been
opened for physicians. Harvard Uni
versity has established a school for
health officers. The Importance which
Harvard attaches to this new school
is shown by the requirements. Grad
yates of approved medical schools
must spend two or more years in
preparation before they are accepted
as candidates for the degree of doctor
of public health. A required course,
including anatomy, physiology, chem
istry, sanitary biology, preventive
medicine, hygiene and sanitary engi-
neering, must be satisfied before the
degree is granted.
Health boards are usually composed
of practicing physicians and scientists
who can give only a part of their
time to health problems. The Harry
ard plan is to fit men for the work
so that they may give their entire time
TO prevention.
