The trial Of the editors Of the Ga
zette Universal, which took place in
Madrid 100 years ago, affords an Illus
tration of the severity with which the
freedom of the press was restrained in
practically all the continental coun-
tries in those days. Ferdinand VII,
who had been restored to the Span
ish throne as one of the consequences
of the overthrow of Napoleon, had be-
come involved in serious controver-
sizes with the cortes, the law-making
body of the land, because OF the lat
ter's liberal views. A revolution ap-
peared to be imminent The Gazette
Universal printed a statement to the
effect that the officers Of one OF the
Spanish armies had declared their de-
termination to support the constitu-
ton and the cortes. For thus daring
to take sides against the throne the
editors of the newspaper were con-
demned by order of the king to labor
six years in the galleys on the coast
Of Africa.

How easy it is to brighten the aV-
erage man by saying tuberculosis.
For more than half century medical
men have known from the evidence
of the dissecting room that a large
number Of people have tuberculosis Of
the lungs, and recover, living long
afterward in many instances to die OF
some other disease, and perhaps never
suspeCting themselves to have been az
flicted with tuberculosis. At the meet
ing at Leeds, in England, of the As
ISOLATION for the Prevention Of Con
sumption, Sir William Osler, regius
professor of medicine at Oxford uni
versity, startled the members by tell
ing them that they were practically
all tubercular He said: If with the
aid Of radium and microscope could
look at the chests of the audience |
am addressing, in 80 per cent of you |
should discover a small focus or area
Of tuberculosis"

The Flocklng Habit.
While man has been defined as q
gregarious animal, Americans seem to
have the fiocking habit more strongly
developed than any other people.
When there is no public attraction to
draw multitudes there are private
gatherings. This tendency has done
much to destroy the home circle as it
was once known.-St. Louis Globe

TO CONSERVE WEALTH.

The difference between American
and European agriculture is striking
ly illustrated in the figures given
for the comparative production of
wheat In Minnesota, one of our lead
ing wheat states. the average produc-
ton of wheat is about 13 bushels;
though this years exceptional crop
will probably exceed that amount. In
Denmark it is IS; in Holland, "a; in
England. %. More than twice-in the
best yielding country nearly three
times-the production in the progress
sive agricultural state of Minnesota.
With regard to many crops the su-
perior production Of European farms
is partly at least explained by the
cheapness of labor for land tillage.
says Pittsburgh Dispatch. But this
is not the case with wheat and other
small grains. The entire work OF
those crops is done by machinery, and
there is no reason why it should not
be done as thoroughly in the United
States as in Europe. Perhaps some al
lowance should be made for the vicin-
fly of cities in Europe from which fer
tilizers can be obtained probably at
less cost than in the West. But as
fertilizer is accessible in this coun-
try it is not a valid excuse. The diff,
ference between the crops is 20 bush
els. Half the value of that in fertil,
izers would in the course of a few
years bring the crops of this country
into more favorable comparison with
those of Europe.

With the late Lord Strathcona's
gift Of s25, 100000, the first leper colony
in the United Kingdom will be estab-
lished next fall in a deserted part Of
Essex. There are now only 20 cases
Of leprosy in the entire United King
dom. They are isolated, but widely
scattered, and the bringing them to-
gether for care at a central colony
will not only assure more comfort for
the afflicted but will enable new re-
search into the disease. A specially
equipped hospital will be part Of the

In looking for the source OF disease
among the members of a household,
one would hardly suspect the lrpets
of the domestic establishment, but a
German physician, Doctor kuttner, de-
clares that he has found 1t there. He
had his attention called to FIVE cases
of anaemia and the like, the cause OF
which he could not determine, but
the disease disappeared on the re-
moval of the carpets from the house.
A further investigation disclosed the
fact that the carpets in question con-
tanned arsenic in great quantities,
which probably entered into the COM
position of the dyes. Traces OF ar
senic we're also found in the blood
of the persons who had been al
ficted.
