reaches an advanced stage before it's character is known, and little can be done for the patient; meanwhile in- fective matter has been slowly dis tributed.
 Smallpox often appears in mild form, and not frequently is mistak- .en for condition which is not in- fectious. Through such errors, ser ious outbreaks may follow.
 Diptheria, measles and scarlet fe- yer which are more or less constant ly present, are frequently unrecog- nized.
 There is no doubt that the increas- ed number of cases which occur at the beginning of the school year, is due largely to the transmission of discharges from mild and undetected cases, and not from infected cloth ing, as was formerly supposed.

How Infectious Diseases Are Spread.

How Infectious Diseases Are Spread.
 Infectious diseases are usually transmitted CD directly from one person to another through the med ium of discharges from the body which contain infectious germs of organisms in their active state; CD indirectly through the medium of contaminated food and drink, and (3) by certain biting insects, mo- squitoes, for example which the man. ner of their kind, transmit infectious agents from one person to another.
 If all cases of infectious diseases were well marked and could be promptly and easily Identified, the danger of their spread would be greatly diminished, for we could then better guard against infective dis charges; but unfortunately, these dis eases very often appear in a mild. irregular and unrecognized form, and are overlooked or mistaken for some simple malady and usually treated with home remedies.
 Another very common and danger ous source of infection, and one which is now becoming more fully recognized, is what are known as "carriers," that is, persons who re- tain actively infectious organisms within their body and who theme selves are apparently we'll, yet thru the medium of infectious discharges may transmit disease to others. This very frequently occurs in connection with typhoid fever.
 Certain insects transmit infection We have indisputable evidence that malarial and yellow fever are con veyed from one person to another by the bite of certain infected mo- squitoes, and, as far as we know at the present time, there are no other means by which these are communi- cated.
 The fly is also regarded as a me- dium of infection. 4
 The flea that infests tNe rat trans rmits the infection of bubonic plague. and it has recently been shown that the body louse carries the germ of typhus fever from one person to an other.
 Filth does not cause infectious dis ease, but disease thrives best where there is filth, overcrowding and bad air.
 To illustrates: During the out break of typhus fever, which occur red in New York in the winter of 1893-4, over seven hundred cases .waro discovered and all hut twn 0r three of them were found among the tenement and lodging house popula- ton, where uncleaniiness, lice and overcrowding were rife.
 The prompt detection of an, infec- l.tipussdisease is vitally'impogtant. for this not only offers better chance for recovery for those who are ill, but goes far to prevent the spread of in lection. [ unfortpnately. tubeyculosis. which exists almost everyvhere, frequently

DEMOCRATS PLAN TO AID PRODUCER,

Vice Presidential Nominee Speaking At Fargo, At
 tacks G. O. P.

Fargo, N. D., Aug. 16.-Making his first address in North Dakota, Frank lin D. Roosevelt, democratic candi- date for vice-president, this morn. mig declared that the democratic party if elected pledges itself te "seek solution of the problems that will serve the best interests of tho producer and the great consuming public"
 T am particularly glad to read that the porch" campaign of the republicans is breaking down." MT Roosevelt said, land that Senator Harding has now condescended to make five whole speeches away from home.
 "The theory of the democratic cam paign is, of course, just the contrary Our candidates are trying not mere ly to carry the campaign to the coun- try, but to find out what the. coun- try is thinking. "This difference in attitude. of mind extends to the way in which the leaders of the two parties handle all public questions. The democra tic theory is that big national prob lens ought to be settled from nal tional point of view and ought not to be undertaken by mere gather ing in Washington of half a. dozen old line leaders who do not know the country and who represent the kind of things that Penrose of Pennsyl- vania, Lodge of Massachusetts, Root x of New York and others of that group advocate, who were in control of the Chicago convention and who would be in control of your govern ment if a republican presiden. is elected.

completeness their obligations of lIadoption as against the call of their blood.
 The figures also show the impo-
 tence of the propagandists of paci- lficism who were backed up by our
 historically national aversion to en- lgaging in European quarrels. Con-
 sidering these and other influences topposed to wholehearted participa- Etion of America in the war, we say that a record wherein less than one man in a hundred did not measure up fully to the requirements of Am ericanism is truly wonderful, It is the best answer possible to the cyn- lics and misanthropes who claim that
 republics are doomed to failure. Also
 does it demonstrate that in this great melting pot of ours real fusion of spirit can be obtained.

 Since the railroads are being per- mitted to increase their revenues, and since they have raised the wages of most of their employees,
 they should pay their agents com mensurate with the service render
 ed. Many agents-whose responsi-
 bifities are great, and whose ability, loyalty and efficiency are unques- tioned-are not being paid on equal
 basis with other railroad employees. "Fifty per cent in-ninety-days" Ponzi, who claimed assets of mill lions, is unable to raise enough money to obtain his release from jail on $85,000 bail. And that's about
 the way it is with most of these "get- rich-quick" schemers and schemes.
 For every fortune made quickly on la small investment hundreds have
 been lost. Four, six and eight per lccnt may seem small-but four, six, Tor eight per cent, plus safety, plus relief from anxiety, is better than high hopes for few weeks, and thcn-bingo, the bubble busts. -0-

for the Democratic party in the coming
election, no ratification of the peace
treaty and overwhelming defeat to the
Republican party were predicted late
Friday by United States Senator Pat
Harrison Of Mississippi, in an address
delivered By invitation to the Missis-

MED the body of the late Senator Bank
head to Jasper Ala, and stopped In
jackson for visit before returning to
Washington. Senator Harrison charged
that the big interests of the country
had hand in shaping the railroad bill
and that the Republicans would nomi-
nate a man $50 closely allied with these
interests that the Democrats would
sweep the nation in the coming cam
paigu."
Senator Harrison said that so long as
Senator Lodge insists on the reserva-
tons to article 10 In the league of ma
tons, s''there are Democrats in the SEN
ate who will fight TO the end of time
to sustain the men who practically gave
their lives for the cause of humanity
