CLIMATE and CONSUMPTION

Gin ate in itself has very little to
do with the cure Of consumption.
It is generally believed by consump-
tives, however. that certain eli
mates have all that is necessary
for cure and that all they need is
to 60 there Frequently in making
the trip-a long distance, perhaps
more than half across the CONT
nent-they use up their strength
and a greater part of their means,
and have nothing with which to
employ medical attendance or the
nurse care after arriving. In fact,
more than half the people who
!, leave their homes for these resort !
regions would have been better
off, more comfortable, more con-
tented, and would have had bet
ter chance to live, had they stayed
at home
The facts in the case or more or
less these The chances of cure
in resort climates may not be so
great, but even these should be
given fair tests. Lack of means
that forbid the services of equipped
physicians and nurses, restlessness
and discomfort, are serious handi-
caps which more than offset the
, advantages to be derived from the
, climate. Accidents and inconven-
fences in travelling should be taken
into consideration. but more than
these, the stage of the disease
should be considered The adj
vanced case should by no means
leave home to seek a cure in dis
= tant parts of the country.
What one should do, however, is
to 60 early to some sanatorium
u rather than in some far away eli
mate. He should spend his none,
. to have good nursing and a physi
- clans care rather than in wilt
g wild goose chase on the railroad.

THE RIGHT THING TO DO

If the report is true President Wilson will cali extra session of Congress. Among the many right steps he has taken since he became the head of the nation, this is perhaps the wsest step of them all
 The American people getting 'riedup" over the long harrassing annoyances that being main taned the borders and feel though this mat ters should be attended to- The Greasers have been prodding and otherwise gougng American patience so long that the irritation has become unendurabe and we wonder if by this time the Presidents patience IS not of blisters.
 Many there are who criticize Roosevelt for his impatience. Likewise, many there who admire Wilson for patience but aftera is said and done the question whether Wilson s long endurance has proved q better judgement than quick action would, IS not affirmativey answered by the past in this case None will question the truth of the statement that of Wilson, the Mexicans would not have kept up their killing propensity the destruction of proper ty and impose untold misery upon the people of that wretched country without interference the part of the United States And while the fondness of peace is commendable, and all that, yet stitch in time saves nine. But apparently, Wilson does not care to take the whole responsibility upon himself, hence the extra session. and will object, the only regret is that it was done long since.
 The submarine warfare question will also be taken up and is hoped that definite action or stand will be agreed upon.

THEY ARE TIRED

'sTo those people living along Main street look tired; they act tired and believe they are tired and what is more, I can't blame them.
 After the above had been delivered, the bus mess explained that what he meant was the slow process employed by the management of the Main street improvement from the Bank corner up in the completiton the work made those people look tired And, candidly impelled to arrive at the same conclusion.
 What has been the trouble? Why all this de layq Why not employ men and finish the workq Is necessary that certain men, number of do the work to obtain results and as they can do only work each day the work can only progress accordingly.
 No wonder that those people whose homes are along that street are getting impatient Nearly the whole summer has been spent in the improvement of that street, when matter of fact few weeks at the most would have been enough. Inconvenience is always annoying but inconvenience has reached Its limits when it becomes an unnecessary inconvenience or annoyance and it very annoying to be annoy fed that long annoynce must be followed by tired look that is pardonabe, no doub but very dlsag' sS ahlo

wireless Shark Now suspeoted.


British papers are, at this late date,
devoting considerable space to dis
cussion of whether the Princess Irene
and the Bulwark were not both blown
up by some kind of wireless detona-
tor in the hands of the Germans. 1t
will be remembered that both battle
ships were victims Of mysterious ex-
plosions while lying in harbor.
Distinguished inventors such as
Tesla, Marconi, Edison and the young
er Hammond have worked on spark
that could be transmitted through the
air to blow up the magazines of foe,
but the fact that the Germans have
not employed such means more fire.
Quently, or against ships Of greater
class than the Bulwark or the Princess
Irene practically discounts their pos
session of any such device.
