INDIANS AND TUBERCULOSIS

DR.. John y. Alley. superintendent ii
the United States Sanatorium for In
dams at Fort Lapwai, Idaho. says he
is convinced. after "a study of the
causes Of death among the Nez PerCcs
Indians for the last ten years that 80
per cent of all the deaths are due di-
rectly or indirectly To tuberculosis. n
the hundred Years that have elapsed
since the historic expedition of Lewis
and Clarke to the Northwest, the Nez
Perces tribe has diminished from 5000
To 1900 The present tuberculosis
death rate Is about 40 per thousand
living or two and one-half times the
rate i'm the United States as "A whole.
DR.. Alley traces the cause of the de-
elimination tn the change in the mode
of living OF the Indians from the open
air life of the palms To the sedentary,
settled life Of the reservation. The
latter has brought with il the danger
of house infection which was auto
matioally eliminated in the earlier
days. Ventilation" says DR.. Alley,

In a recent report of the office of In

out that there are approximately 25,OOg

AN ALARMING DECREASE
IN BIRTHS IN GERMANY

i For some time there has heen con-
cerned in Germany. about the empire
declining birth rate. This concern has
recently been increased ny the predic
tion of Professor Woln. an eminent
economist, that by 1890 Germany
would fall below France In the rate ~

prolific among civilized people have
reached standstil in numbers hefotc
six Years have passed.
According To the minister of wars

and Americans in tie decline at the
number OF marriages. the increase m
the number Of divorces and the de-
crease i'm the birth rate In 1873 the
birth rate in Germany was sea- for
every thousand inhabitants. while IN
1912 IL had fallen Ia %. This decrease
was comparatively neglihle up To the
BEGINNING OF the present century From
1876 To 1909 the decline in the rate WAS
81. thousand, while from 1900 Ia 1872
IL VAS I more than double,
The cause Of the decline i'm the GER
man birth rate is attributed. first of all
To the growth Of city life. In the
country districts the large German
family is still the rule. Especially is
this true of all Roman Catholic famil-
les. In the kingdom Of Bavaria, where
the church is very strong in numbers,
the birth rate shows no falling Off
The Bavarian Catholics not unnatur-
ally boast that they are saving family
life for the whole empire
The lowering of the birth rate does
not indicate the lowering Of Teutonic
physical stamina or the deterioration
Of morals. This is proved hy the ply
steal examination for army service
which shows that the men are as
alton ago.
The decline i'm the growth of popu- !
lation has naturally raised some specu- |
lation as Ia the ambition and power !
n Germany To become a great coloniz-
ing nation. If we are going 10 stop |

have no need for new lands. as we
will have To keep our people at home to
hold our own lands"
What saves Germans from gloom IS
the low death rates. In 1875 it was PC |
for every 100 inhabitants; 10y 1900 it |
had been reduced to 20l2. while i'm |
1912 it was only 1914. But for these !
death rate figures, the minister of war
declares, there would have been an
actual reduction in the populations"
The low death rate is due 10 improved |
lygienic conditions. But even these
conditions. adds the minister. cannot
save the nation from the steadily fall
ng birth rate-indeed. the government
may he compelled later Ia lengthen the
erm of service in the army from two
years, as now. To three years, as in

Telephone Alarm Clocks.
The Duluth Telephone company made
formal announcement recently To the
effect that in the future contrary 10
the rules of most companies. il would

as an alarm clock. BY this the Off
cials of the Duluth company meant
that when a subscriber asked To be
called at an early hour in the morning
central would ring his phone at the
time he wished Ia get up.
Manager Ref of the local telephone
company stated that this has been done
for some time by the central girls
of Houghton and Calumet and they
would continue To do so. Ii is an or
binary duty, or at least one that has
been for some time.
The practice of having the telephone
girls ring in the small hours of the

when the party wishing Ia be called is
on party line. When the central girl
rings the phone. all the telephone
bells on the party line ring and thus
