Taking No Chances

Readers who had some difficulty in
remembering where the Falkan Is
lands were, may have been helped by
the recollection of one of Ian Maclar-
ems stories. After disaster to an
emigrant ship many years ago, some
of the survivors reached those islands.
When the news reached home, the min
lister of Scottish church to which
some of the emigrants had belonged,
prayed thus: "Oh, Lard, we pray thee
to be with our bretheren, stranded in
the Falkland Islands, which, as Thou
knowest, are situated in the South At
lantic ocean."-Argonaut.
Gray horses live the longest, and
cream colored ones are most affected

Success of Typhoid incubation.

Sir Frederick Treves, presiding at
the Society Of Arts on the occasion of
Doctor Sandwith's Chadwick lecture
on war and Disease" was able to
bear witness to the remarkable sani-
tary. conditions under which the pres
ent war is being waged. Particu-
larly did he indorse the value of inoc-
ulation for typhoid, by which means
that great danger to armies in the
field has been practically eliminated.
Sir Frederick was, in fact, able to state
that not a single inoculated man had
died Of typhoid in the British expedi.
tionary force, and that there had only
been 212 cases Of typhoid. with %
deaths. When we remember the ex-
tent to which typhoid prevailed In our
armies during the Boer war. when the
conditions were probably infinitely
less provocative of that disease than
those which must necessarily prevail
in prolonged trench fighting. It will be
recognized that Sir Frederick's claim
that the existing sanitary arrange
ments are unprecedented Is Justified

TRIED AND CONVICTED.

It Is one Of the most cheering signs
of the times that the cause of tenn
perance is steadily gaining champions
In the United States congress. This
from Representative Clyde Kelly of
Pennsylvania:
The American saloon has already
been tried and convicted in one-half
the territory of the United States,
and in the remaining territory where
1t still waves the Stars and Stripes
It will soon be seeing the stars and
wearing the stripes, Facing the facts
and knowing the meaning of the strug-
gle. the liquor interests are forming
a battle line Of gigantic strength. We
accept its mighty challenge, for we
know that with this giant wrong over
thrown many others which have
marred and SCARED humanity for gen.
erations will go crashing down in one
great heap Of wreck and rubbish. And
crediting that, we do not ask how
many the enemies are. we only ask
where the enemies are"
