 young woman member of beloved fam fly to faint during Sunday services and to be carried out by the young men of the congregation. It was further customary to look for her death few months or per hapS year later.
 It was customary for sister after sister to have these fainting spells and grow weaker and weaker thereafter until they had placed the four of them side by side in the quiet graveyard.
 r A handsome 20-year-old boy, son of a Birmingham pioneer, died fifteen years ago following brief attack of what is termed galloping consumption. In eigh- teen months the next younger brother, ar irving at the same age, went the same way The third followed at about the same interval.
 One of Birmingham's pioneer physi- clans is survivor of several brothers and sisters, who died one after the other of tuberculosis in their early youth.
 In none of these families was there ignorance about the usual affairs of life. None of them was poor. All had parents of sufficient means to provide offspring with the necessities and many of the com forts of life
 But in none of these families did they know and realize that tuberculosis travels in the spittle of victim No. 1 and that vic- tim No. 2 is he or she who comes in contact tbo T No. l. The Baltimore sisters slept with Birmingham boys slept with one another and died. The brothers and sisters of the Birmingham physician died from similar lack of precaution
 In none of these families did they know how to treat the disease in the first case or how to avoid it's spread among the other beloved
 There are widows in Birmingham, whose husbands were sent to the far west to recover, but died, because they sought too late to estop the disease The love and devotion of these brave women was as naught.
 He who has mixed at all with the tuber- cular exiles in Colorado and Arizona. knows the heartsickness which they, en- dure and he knows the uselessness of the terrible money toll paid in the vain hope of cure when the undertaking of cure has come too late
 There is no spot on earth where man is exempt from disease; none where nature will restore after nature has been dealt mortal wound. There is health anywhere under conditions suited to living where one finds himself
 Knowledge of how to live is the secret of health. Knowledge of how to act so as to prevent others from being harmed by the germs in our system and how to pre- vent others from harming us is the key to the elimination of tuberculosis. Knowl- edge of what to do in the mcipient stages is the knowledge that will avoid the last stages and death
 The plan of the State Anti-Tubercu- losis Association for visiting nurses in every county aims at the ull's-eye. It will not only save many human lives, but it will save them at minimum of expense.

Face to face with tragedy, Ever

England and after 10 wears of wan
derlng turned UP in 1913 in German
East Africa. where Baron Leopold
Won Ka2astcln, 4 military com
nander, rescued him from death in
the bush. The two men soon dis
covered that they had known each
other at Oxford and that the amaz-
ing likeness which had existed be
tween them in undergraduate days
still persisted. Then Won Ragastein,
who had been ordered to London
ny WIlhelmstrasse, determined to
make way with the Englishman, as
sumo his identity and enter upon
his espionage as Sir Everard Domi-
ney. There is love story Of charm

HARDING CLOSELY
FOLLOWING WORK
OF WORLD COURT

Marion, o., Aug. 2O.-The CONFER
ences now in progress abroad between
EliAu Root and leading European
statesmen for organization of an in
ternatienal court Of justice. are being
closely watched by Senator Harding
as he fornulates his policy Of a world
understanding" for preservation of
peace.
The Republican nominee revealed
todayday that he considered that the
international court conferences held
important possibilities and added that
the plan evolved there might become
an element in the political campaign
as alignments develop on the League
issue.
Mr.. Root. former Republican secre-
! tary of state, was author Of the
League plank in the Republican Ma
tional platform. and after his return
to this country is expected to confer
on the subject with Senator Harding
Thus. far. the nominee has not been
informed OF all of the details of the
conference abroad, though he is I'M
derstood to be familiar with much of
the progress made in laying down
the principles of an international trib-
unal.
A more detailed statement Of the
Republican stand on the League issue
is to be made by Senator Harding in
his address here a week from temor-
row to an Indianapolis delegation, and
1t is understood that in pronouncing
the principles on which he thinks a
society OF nations should rest. he will
give conspicuous notice TO the work
of Mr.. Root and his colleagues.
Whether the Root proposal will in
fact become the basis of a Republican
plan has not been revealed, but Sen
ator Harding expressed qualification
today at the progress of the confer
ences abroad and said he hoped soon
to hear more details.
In his speech on the League issue
the nominee also is expected to COM
ment on the functioning of the League
as now organized and he said today
he would withhold until that time any
comment on the call issued by Pres
ident Wilson today for the first meet
ing Of the League delegates.

condition that he could remember
scarcely a thing that he did early
Friday morning, when he was ar
raigned before Judge Robert A. Cony

was trying to start one of the auto
mobiles that were parked in the rear

ing with the self starter ON car
at about $50 Friday morning.
Boucher was walking ahead of Of
fieer Ridley towards the police sta
ton shortly afterwards. when he
ducked and made a get away.
Officer Michael Bolduc testified that
a little later he had arrested Boucher
on Bond street. finding him seated on
the sidewalk in an intoxicated con-
dition.
Boucher remembered that he and
another fellow had paid S. for a
bottle full of alcohol which they pur-
chased from a third fellow who went
off and procured it for them. But he
did not remember being near any au-
tomobiles.
Respondent had previously been be-
fore Judge Cony. and had his auto
driving license taken away for driv-
ing car while in an intoxicated con-
diMon. The license had later been
restored TO him. Judge Cony stated
that he thought the license should
again he taken from Boeucrw, hatta
again be taken from Boucher, and
