FICTION FROM BOOKS

Our fear of tuberculous infection
may be allayed at least on one score.
Fer the risk OF infection from n book
used by a tuberculous patient is
slight unless the book is obviously
soiled. This conclusion was reached
as the result of experiments by
Messrs Kenwood and Dove and was
published in The Journal OF the
August 7th. 1915. Nevertheless. we
are advised to avoid any risk. how
ever slight. and the following simple
preventatives are suggested
Badly soiled books should be
burned.
Books used by tuberculous patients
should be disinfected. or at least is
olated for month.
Slips should be pasted in every
book. reading
Do not cough into book.
Do not moisten the fingers to turn
the leaves.
Do not leave a hook open when
not in use
Moist heat is suggested as sim
pie means OF disinfection when not
harmful to the materials Of which n
book is made.-.Marion V. Higgins.

has received numerous letters within
the last few days from German farm

for sale in the Texas panhandle; all
of the writer's stating that they are
desirous of removing to the United
States. These letters are from Mani
toba, Saskatchewan. Alberta and the
British Columbia and all make prac-
tically the same inquiries.
BY reading between the lines it is
not difficult to conclude that hun
dreds OF Germans. now residents of
the Dominion Of Canada, are anxious
to come to this country on account
of the prejudices existing against
them growing out Of the present war
in Europe. although none Of the let

number OF dissatisfied Germans in

that there will be a considerable mi
