For generations tradition has de-

siderable deep blowing had been done
and numerous excavations made, Mr..
Williams mules came to sudden

So. certain that he had found the
traditional pot, he was overjoyed and

Coxen's Minina Claim.

Ed Coxen when still boy decided
he would like to be prospector and,
with another young fellow as a part
ner, staked out a claim In southern
California. Riches did not come In
sudden rushes, as he had fondly ex.
pected, and he soon relinquished his
claim to his partner and HE'D himself
back to the brighter lights and running
water. Years passed to the number Of
twelve or fourteen, and while walking
down a Los Angeles street the other
day Coxen encountered his one time
partner, whom he had not seen in all
the Intervening years. Greetings over,
1t came about that the former partner
still held the claim, had been working
1t all these years and was Just about
as far along in the acquisition Of this
worlds goods as the two Boys had been
years before when they first staked
their claim. But there are worse
things than being an actor" thought
Coxen.

TUBERCULOSIS

Consumption is tuberculosis of the
lungs, the most common form of tu-
berculosis. There are several facts
about tuberculosis which every per-
son should know for his own safety
and the protection of his family.
tuberculosis is the most destruc-
tive of all human diseases. II kills
100000 persons each year in the
United States. 1t costs the United
States over five hundred million dol
lars year in loss OF life and labor.
tuberculosis may attack any per-
son. anywhere. unless proper precau-
tons are taken. Our climate is no
guarantee against infection although
It make protection easier.
tuberculosis can be prevented. 1t
ia not necessary for any one to con-
tract the disease. Doctors and nurses
in tuberculosis sanitariums never be-
come consumptives.
tuberculosis can be cured II the
disease is discovered soon enough
and proper treatment is begun at
once and Is continued until cure Is
complete.
An organized war is being waged
against tuberculosis throughout the
civilized world. Much has been
spoken and written on the subject.
It is not the purpose Of this campaign
to frighten the people. Instead, It
brings assurances and hope. The di-
sease can be conquered as soon as
the people generally join in this cam
palgn.
Not much consideration has been
given to this subject in Utah because
Of the comparative small amount of
tuberculosis which exists here, But
unless we bestir ourselves we may
soon awake to the knowledge that
other states, by giving recognition
to the problem, have passed us in
the race. Moreover, we are. by our
indifference. permitting the waste of
valuable lives. Men and women are
dying from tuberculosis all about us.
