World in Danger From Plague.

Danger from plague-infected ports
in the Mediterranean is pointed out
by Doctor Beaumetz of the Pasteur in
stitute, who says that reports show a
recrudescence of the plague, especially
in Syria, Saloniki, Alexandria and Con
stantinople, where energetic measures
are being taken, especially for the pro-
lection of allied troops. Doctor Beau
metz expresses the opinion that the
plague will not become general, but
urges strict sanitary measures at
French ports.

A nut almost unknown in the United
States is the filbert, one of the most
delicious of all nuts 1t is cultivated
on a large scale for the market in
the county of Kent, England. A targ-
er variety is known as the "cob nut"
The flbert is as superior to the hazel
nut-of which family it is member
as the hazel nut is superior to the pea
nut. Attempts to raise the flbert on
a commercial scale in the United

"READ THAT, MR.. cox"
AND Mr.. cox DID READ.

A little incident connected with can
didate Cox's recent campaign visit
to New York Indicates that the Demo
cratic nominee is striving to forget
certain indiscreet editorials which ap-
peared in his newspaper, the Dayton
News, before the owner of the paper
aspired to the Presidency.
As the Democratic nominee was
leaving the Hotel Commodore after
luncheon a commercial traveller forced
his way through the throng Of curious
spectators and thrust into Mr.. Cox's
hand an editorial clipping which prov
ed to be his denunciation Of the
commercial travellers Of the United
States. "Read that, Mr.. Cox" COM
manded the travelling man. The Demo
cratic candidate unfolded the frayed
column Of newspaper matter, glanced
at the heading, scanned the first para
graph, flushed scarlet to the ears and
crumpling the offensive and offending
editorial In his fist mumbled some
thing which none of those near him at
the time would repeat and hurried to
his waiting automobile.
