The Cause of Pneumonia.

Cognizance should be taken of the fact
that this is the height of the pneumonia
season, and already this dread enemy is
counting its victims in all sections of the
country where winter holds sway. The
number of deaths from pneumonia in
March is said to be double the average
number for October. Knowing this to
be the fact, every precaution should be
taken to guard against the attack of
such dreaded enemy Familiarity with
the causes is to be safeguarded.
Some of the causes put down by emil
nent medical men are contagion from
pneumonia cases and pneumonia carriers
overirdulgence in Intoxicating liquors,
overeating, staying in crowed and over
heated places, getting overtired, getting
chilled
Knowing these causes one can guard
against them and at no time in the
course of the entire year could warning
be more timely than now. -Brattleboro

1t has been said that CarranZa was
the intellectual godfather Of Francisco
Madero. Now tifty-siX years of age, he
is much older than was the martyred
president. Madero was of the topmost
circle of Mexican aristocracy, with
enormous wealth. CarranXa was a
rancher of moderate estate. lie comes
of fighting stock. Twice he offered
himself at the polls as q candidate for
the governOrship of Coahuila against a
man backed by Portirio Diaz. OF
course the Diaz candidate won with
the polling place filed with soldiers.
But the stand of Carranza interested
the young aristocrat, Francisco Ma
dero. He put up money for Carranza's
second gubernatorial contest. He also
heard Carranzas opinion on the land
problem. 1t was the opening of his
eyes by Carranza which caused Ma
dero to head his successful revolt,
which placed him in short lived pos
session of the national palace. Car
rama is u stern, uncompromising char
acter, with simple habits. He is
total abstainer from liquor and to-
bacco.
