It is fu.l of useftl hints on heatlh and sanitation. How many city health departments in' North Caro lina are sufficiently supported and managed with sufficient enterprise to publish a health bulletin each month? As far as we knew, Asheville, is the only one. Obser- ation of Asheville's activity in this matter, which is of prime importance to all cities, should be suggestive to ot'icr cities of the wisdom of putting on a little mor steam in this clcraitment. THE COSTLINESS OF VEAL. Patrick Cudahy, one of the group of meat :packers more or less known to fame ,advibes the cessation of the slaughter of calves as one cf the menas of sclvirg the beef problem. It is said that a single year will add sur prisingly to the weight of a calf and that it is therefore, so far as the quantity of meat is concerned , waste and ex travagante to kill young calves. Tariff free meats under the new tariff will go far toward bringing about cheap erbeef, but it would be well for all of the Stafes, as seme have already done, to considir the feasibility of laws intended to prevent the wholesale slaughter of calves. A i lv n t if u 1 supply of beef of good quality at reasonal le prices would be a dcsiral le thing for every com munity in the country. It is the most whdesome and nourishing, and to many the mott palatable of the meats in general use. They that dance must pay t he fi dler, and it was a fearful pi ice that that G 1 Isboro couple paid. Swatting the fly is good, but starving him is still better, Here again an oincc of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It is reported that Go-ern r Foss of Massachusetts may belt th: Demo cratic party. V II, that is the way some fol . adopt cf si owing gratitude. The inheritance tax cn the estate of J. Pierpont Morgan will ykld the State of New York Lvtwtcn three and four million dtlbrs. This is cc.l cting tax from the right source .'rom those who arc able to i ay. The Morgan heirs will be fabul utly rich even alter tl.c inhtriUmo tax haa been d ducted fiom wh: t t'. c financier left. Tariff speaker ci cs the fact th; t he Argentine Rcpul.bc with a popi.lat: n of only nine n liion leople cJpoi a five times as much beef and mc t products generally as the Uni ed Statts with its ninety- wo million people. Nothing strange al out that. If th: Argentire Republic lad as n any p.-o-pl to feed as the Uni e I States it would not have to much beef to export. But this is no argument aguait the raising of more stock by the people of the South. IRONICAL Secretary of State Bryan in his addicss before tie Daughters of the Revolution, holdirg ileir annual ses ion in Washington, told them that they must throw their ir. finer ce on the side o the 1 1 1. I- in their struggle for bbcrty. We suspect that the Se.ie ary was a bit in nical in his advice to the Laughters If the truth were known it is I kely that a rcod fixed majority tf ; le e ladies ho take their society ran c frcm one of the greatest struggles r ainst r pi ression ii hi ory ere stroi g ty reactionary in sentiment. The enjo ment of .wealth and distinction makes talk about liberty teem tiretme In all the tumult and the shouting over the tanrt, Wilson is keeping a clear head. Neither those who want to wipe out the tariff on every thing it one fell swoop nor those who would devise a tariff that would lay the Democratic pa ty open to the accusa tion made famous by Clevtland the charge of "perfidy and dishonor" can influence him. He is standing for a tariff that is satisfactory neither to the free traders nor the protectionists and what it takes to stand for his convictions he has got it. PREVENTING DISEASE. The Bulletin of the Stat Board of Health for April has an article on "Preventive Medicine", copied from the Youth's Companion. Prevention has never received the attention that it deserves, says the writer of the article, Dr. M. J. Rosenau, Professor of Pre ventive Medicine and Hygene at Harvard University, and the reason why cureofdise.se gets so much mire praise and notice than prevention is set fcrth in this paragraph: "The results of cure are positive the results of prevention seem negative. Cure is real, active, evident; prevention seems mysterious, quiet, uncertain. For instance, the fact that the effects of prevention arc not plain enough for every one to see is one of the obstacles against which vaccination has always had to contend. If Jennr had discov ered a cure for smallpox instead of a preventive, and if that cure had been half as effective as vaccination, every civilized nation in the world would do him homage." Really prevention of sickness is a matter of energy more than anything else. The thrifty, hustling family will usually be found to be the family afflicted with the least sickness, that is if the heads of the household are progressive people who keep informed as to the methods of prevention. Lazy, shiftless families are the ones in which disease makes its greatest inroads. A stitch in time saves nine bat it will not do it for the fellow who won't take the trouble to take the stitch. The Wilmington Star calls 'em Ar- canians. We leseectfully suggest Ar- cinumite and hereby call for the re'eree. By its long-drawn out qualities winter L making up for what it lack' d in concentration. It's a rare thing when the weather 'ails to come back. Daniels is somet'iing of a preceden breaker, too. No more "port" and;' starboard in the navy, but just plain .old fashioned "right, "and left." If the new captains a' Wash'ngton will just keep up the lick they will eventually get this government down to brass tacks, from which it has long sinre st ayed sufficiently far. Th" new admini tration is findirg many hard nuts to crack, not the least difficu't of which is the p ob'em created by California's anti-Japan se legis lation. It is an exceedingly awkwa d question and one in which Southern people are especially prepared to sym pathize with the Californians through perhaps not' approving of the extreme measures which th latte are about to apply. The Democrat- are not going to get by with that new tariff rs easily as they supposed. The talk about get ting the b-'ll enacted intj law Ly May 1 is alreac y seen to have bien ill-ad- vi: td.

Because it is pure White Lead,. Zinc and Linsetd Oil. Because it's the highest grade quality paint that can be made.
