Teutons in History.

The term Teuton is Of Latin origin.
In ancient times the part Of Europe
now embraced in Germany was called
Germania. and one of the principal
civilized Romans Teutons. just as we
speak OF the Apache Indian. Being a.
fierce and warlIke people they gave the
Romans a great deal Of trouble, and
as they were the dominant tribe of that
region the name of Teutons gradually
came to be applied TO ali the people oc-
cupying what was called Germania. 1t
has survived in the form Of Teutons.

PHTHIsIs is ON DECLINE
Dread Disease May Be ObIiterated In
Another Decade If Decrease Con-
tinues at Present Rate.

If tuberculosis shall continue to de-
creasein this country at the same rate
as in the past half century, it will be
obliterated in another decade. This is
the opinion of DR.. Cleaveland Floyd,
expressed at the Harvard Medical
school. There are two conditions, how
ever, which win prevent the complete
obliteration of this lung disease at
present. and these are poverty and
lack Of hygienic surroundings.
Doctor Floyd said that almost every
body has the germs of this disease In
his system, but that he is able to resist
their attack through living a healthy
life and through the protection of ma
ture.
Inhalation and infection are the two
common ways by which a person con-
tracts tuberculosis. Children may get
the germs In impure milk, but outdoor
play prevents the spread. 1t often hap
pens, however, that when people 70 to
work Ia shops or insanitary offices, or
live In crowded rooms, the disease
shows itself and gains foothold. That
is why SO many persons between the
ages of nineteen and thirty-two ac-
Quire tuberculosis.

"a FOOL AID Ills MONEY"
The World .s Better off When They

The best thing that can happen to a

reader, when you hear that Penns-

When a spendthrift eats IS worth OF
terrapin and calls for more the money
doesn't go down his throat. Bless you,
no; because it goes to the hotel man,
who scatters those 500 cents to the

they read about somebody's giving a
monkey dinner at Newport. But l ask
you If getting rid of his money as fast
as possible is not the very best thing
which a monkey-diuner promoter could
do with it7
When man or woman has not the
sense to spend money wisely, why, the
sooner and faster it goes the better for
the rest of the world.
The worst thing anybody can dowith
money is to lock it up. Wise ones
make their cash work harder than any

in this line. replied THAI publications

If they did. it would be necessary to
