Dr. Friedmann's Cure. Is there a cure lor consump tion? Has Dr. Fried mann found U? ; These ar live questions tbese days. Manv people are found who do not hesitate to fctswer, "Oh, yes I found a cure tor consumption and I think Dr. Priedmann has." But have such people any right to an opinion?.-: Are tbey not predict ing a long way outside of their territory? Is it not probable that their opinions are tempered to a large extent with their strong desire that such a cure may be found? Many eminent doctors and health officers have expressed their opinion that a core for tuberculosis would be found in this generation. We hope Dr. Priedmann has found it He has been working along the right line. But, in the meantime, it will certainly be the Dart of wisdom for the aver age citizen, if not for the aver age doctor, to possess himself nUk nofinnco until cnmft more authoritative body than ,Dr. Priedmann and his own medical ' staff can pass on this matter. 1 " Many treatments have already been made by Dr. Friedmanniin New York, and the United States Government authorities are busy testing the remedy to ascertain for certain, first if it is harmless, and second, if it will really cure consumption It will probably take" six or eight weeks before much of an opinion can be given, even by these experts. In the meantime, those who are so unfortunate as to have the disease should not lose any time, or falter one step in the well beaten, time-trodden path of cure that we now know so well namely, rest, fresn air and pure food. If Dr. Priedmann has discovered a cure, so ' much the better but until that fact has been well demonstrated and un til his cure can be generally ob tained, let us not waste any valuable time. 0 Health Conditions An Advertising Asset. t It is the custom for resorts -with a favorable climate to ad vertise this as an inducement to tourists and invalids. In the past, reference has often been made to' simply "pure air," or Just ordinary "blowing." Now that the value of climatic condi tions with reference to health can be more correctly estimated mere statements as to natural advantages in the way of spring air, sunshine, etc, do not carry such weight. Something more 'definite must be presented. Health conditions in city or resort, to be regarded as an as set for drawing visitors or per manent residents, must be bas ed on actual figures, and many places now vie with each other in that respect.

A campaign tor the eradica tion of the hook worm disease in Alexander County will oegin about the middle of May, under the ausDices of the State Board 6t Health, cd operaiintr with the County Commissioners, mis campaign will be iu charge of Dr. W. P. Jacocks, of the Stale Board of Health, assislt d by Mr. W. 0. Reddick a trained roicru- scopist. The campaign is conducted by visiting certain joints each week, these points beinr named by the Commissioners, a ohe dale of which will appear in the next issue ot this paper. At each dispensary point an exhibit ot parosites which at tack people in North Carolina may be seen; photographs and charts showing the ravages of the disease and the great results from the treatment Literature concerning Hookworm disease and other preventable diseases will be distributed free ot charge and a talk made by the director of the work explaining in detail how this little worm lives, grows and sucks away the life blood of the children all over the state. Provision has been made so that every one may get the examination and treatment free of charge. A large number of people in North Carolina are suffering from this disease and other trou ble due to some cause. We have treated over 100,000 people in the state, , changing these people from weakly, and un heathly individuals to strong, heallhly men and women. Everyone should deovte one day during the campaign to a visit to the dispensary and see by examination if this disease is present in his family and if so have it eradicated.

Noting many signs of uneasi ness over the financial outlook so far as it may be affected by the defects of the present sys tem, -The New York Journal of Commerce goes on to say "The defective rtserve and bank cur rency provisions of the present law tend more and more every year to produce stringency and strain, and since the experience of 1907-8 this is apt to cause every year an anxiety disturbing to business calculations. It is not strange that the feeling in creases that something should be done to avert the recurring tension. " No feature of public opinion upon current questions is more strongly marked than the rising determination to get the currency system reformed. It is confined to no section and to no occupation; the West is stronger for it, if anything than the East With a very fair de gree of agreement upon the main points apparently reached we may feel confident that we shall not be afflicted with so out-of-date a currency system alter this year. We would be rid of it by the present extra session - of Congress if party politics in the matter ot the tariff did not have and proper ly enough the right of way. CharlotteObserver. The bookworm thrives where the barn lot; takes the place of sewers. White people, especi ally white children, catch the bookworm by running around barefoot The hookworm bores itself np through the soles of the feet, and then on into the Sanitary Drinlring Cups. Washington; D.C , April 26, Arrangements have'been made by the Southern Railway to fur nish sanitary iudi vidua! drinking cups to passengers bo ait trains and a large supply f cu ps of the collapsible paper tyiie has been ordered. , As .soou as the cups have been received each conductor will be. furnished with a supply and any- passenger de siring a cup will receive one free of charge oo application to the conductor. Notices to thi effect will be posted - in each coach. . '. - v v v-' ' Furnishing drinikng cups to passengers on the large number ot trains operated by the South, ern Railway will involve a sub sUntial expenditure which is being undertaken to provide for the convenience of - patrons of the railway. All common drink ing cupshave been removed from trains in compliance wii h United States Government re gulations and the statutes and ordinances of many states and municipalities ' Hereafter ; passengers on Southern Railway trains will be put to no inconvenience or ex pense in regard to drinking water and at the same time will not be subject to any possible infection through the use of the common drinking cup.

"The last legislature passed one law at least foi which the good people of the state should be thankful. . It is now a misde meanor to sell or give a cigar ette or the ' material from which cigarettes can be made, to a minor under the' age of 17 yrs. It is also a misdemeanor for such minor to refuse to tell an officer upon request, from whom he obtained cigaretts or the material from which - they are made. This law means more' to the people ot the state than any law that has been enacted in a gen eration It is a law looking to the conservation bt the marhood of the state. It is a law for the protection of the boys of a North Caroline, the future citi zens of the state. The cigarette is possibly the greatest menace today to the health and vigor of the citizenship of the next gen eration and this law which places this death dealing poison out of reaeh of the boys of North Carolina, is a boom to our people. Every right think ing citizen, and every -officer of the state should see to it that the law is enforced to the letter. Lets protect the lite and health of our boys. They are the state's greatest asset " .' e -JK-- -" - Sit, stand nd t work erect. Practice deep breathing at , re gular intervals, and- always breath through your nose.
