Develops Slowly


This means that tuberculosis is
A disease Of very slow develop
ment which assumes one charac-
ter in childhood and changes 10
another character in adult life.
The child, let US say, is brought
M in A household where there IS
an Old grandfather or grand
mother who has a chronic cough.
The cough has always been
thought to be chronic bronchitis,
but it may be tuberculosis. Tuber-
culosis does not always kill them
off in youth. Sometimes enough
immunity develops so that 1t IS
carried by people until they get to
be seventy or eighty years of age.
Symptoms in Children
In childhood the disease re-
mains in the lymph nodes of the
chest or abdomen. 1t is not neces-
sarily in the lungs and therefore
is not characterized by coughing
or sputum, but by slight changes
in nutrition, such as a low fever
in the afternoon and persistent
under-nutrition.
II the disease IS not conquered
by the individual in childhood, it
NAV spread to the bones. the kid
neys, or most frequently, to the
lungs where it turns into an en-
tirely different disease-the IA
miliar form Of tuberculosis, char
acterized by coughing, fever, ex-
pectoration, loss Of weight, IA
tigue, etc.
But is there any danger in being
q nurse, a medical student or a
doctor in a tuberculosis sanato-
rum? DR.. Trudeau said in 1905,
"Our employees in the sanato-
rum, dining-room maids, etc, are
all healthy people. None of them
have developed tuberculosis in the
sanatorium."

while it may slow up the rapid
British advances in Africa and the
Anglo-Greek successes in Albania,
will not be sufficient TO turn the
tide in favor of Italy unless greatly
increased and extended TO include
a formidable part of the German

German dive bombing attacks
on the British feet may make II
more difficult for the British to
retain supremacy in the Mediter-
ranean. but American officials do
not believe the German air force

British navy of that supremacy.
A British victory over Italy is,
of course, considered dependent
upon Englands ability to hold out
against Germany al home, II was
pointed out
If the British Isles do hold out
and the British Empire army con-
tinues its advance in Libya, il is
believed Italy will have no other
course but to sue for peace before

THE most famous and Infamous
i OF all the fifth columnists Is,
of course, Benedict Arnold whose
very name has become typical Of
all that Is traitorous and base, and
whose sad conclusion Of a splendid
career should serve as warning
to any disloyalist whose disap-
pointed ambitions tempt him to he
q traitor to his nation and his
cause.
Arnold was distinguished not
only for his knowledge of the art
Of war, but for his daring and
courage
In spite OF Arnold's talents and
achievements, however, five of his
subord;nates were promoted over
his head.
This humiliation he never for
got and apparently never forgave.
In addition to these affronts,
Congress subjected him to court
martial for his management when
he was in command at PhiIadeI-
phis after the retirement of
Howe.
He was acquitted OF serious
charges.
Nevertheless Congress ordered
him to be reprimanded by Wash
ington.
Washington sided with Arnold
against the hostility OF Congress,
and the reprimand amounted al
most to a compliment.
Arnold wrote to Washington:
As Congress hare
stamped iagrdtitude as q
current coin I must take 1t.
II UiSh your ercellency
for long and eminent seru-
ice may not be paid IN the
Sdm9 coin"
Washington in his reprimand to
Arnold said;
Exhibit dneU those
noble qualities Which hare
-phced you on the last o. eur
most pdlued commanders.
Il WW myself furnish
you as far as may be Within
my power nth opportunity
for rcgdintng the esteem Of
your country
co WHEN Arnold sought the
~ command Of West Point,
Washington did not hesitate to
grant the request.
Not Washington nor anyone
realized that Arnold was nursing
his grievances and awaiting only
an opportunity for revenge.
At Philadelphia, Arnold had
married a Miss Margaret Shippen
and had met at her fathers house
young British officer named
Major Andre.
This young man became the In.
strument of Arnold's revenge.
He was an aide-de-camp to Sir
Henry Clinton. and was one OF
those sristocratlc young gentle
men of engaging manner who
made the British officers so pop.
ular in New York.
He wrote and acted In many oi
those amateur theatrical perform.

ton the delivery of the formidable
fortress of West Point TO the
British.
A British fleet was TO come up
the Hudson and threaten West
Point, whereupon Arnold would
surrender the fortress under the
pretense that IL was not strong
enough 10 resist,-a plan alto
gether similar to that of General
Charles Lee which was foiled at
Charleston.
Arnold and Andre met In the
woods at night near West Point.
and Arnold gave Andre the plans
of the fortress.
He also provided Andre with
pass through the American lines.
Andre, the next day. proceeded
toward New York bat had not gone
far before he was stopped by
man--in Hessian uniform-accom-
panied by two other men.
4 NDRE was betrayed by his
n own folly.
He said rashly:

What party?" they
asked.
The British" said An
DIRE decetred By the HrSSidn

SAID the supposed Hession.
and you are our prisoner.
Andre vainly endeavored to buy
off his captors, offering them one
hundred pounds, his horse and
equipment-anything and every
thing in fact.
But the Americans refused the
bribes.
He was searched and In his
boots the telltale plans were
found.
When Arnold heard OF Andres
capture he went to his wife's room
and hastily informed her that GER
tain transactions had come to
light which forever banished him
from his country.
Then he fled. leaving the poor
lady in q swOon.
On this very day, Washington,
all unsuspecting, had sent word to
Arnold that he was on his way to
West Point, and would have
breakfast with him.
When Washington arrived, he
heard the dreadful news, and
turning to General Knox and La
Fsyette sadly said:
"Whom can nc trust
nOC?"
Washington made every attempt
TO seize Arnold, but Arnold es-
capped aboard the British ship Vul-
ture, which was waiting for him on
the Hudson, and sailed to safety.
His wretched tool Andre was
hanged.
Arnold was made a brigadier
general in the British army and
paid a large sum of money. but
was always held in contempt by
both British and Americans.
Rideling writes:
"OW final glimpse Of
Arnold is pitidble. During
the last days of his hfe.

reverted TO has old friends
