But the r'act remains that this battle agains disease must be perpetrated by the people. Its uiccess depends upon the organization of a fighting force in every community devoted to its object and inspired to a constant and unabated activity. Tuberculosis is a preventable disease and must be pre vented. Tuberculousis kills more oeople and costs more money than ill other communicable diseases com bined. But it will take a combined effort on the part of the entire peo ple to prevent it. This campaign on tuberculosis is clearing up the whole local health situation. We cannot get control of tuberculosis without making it practically impossible for tny of the filth or needless disease fo exist. In getting rid of this disease we will raise the whole stan dard of living for the average people. The prevention of disease rather lhan its cure, the removal of the .auses and condition conducive to disease, is a primary object of. this :-.-ffort. "We would like for this informa tion to be brought to the attention of the ministers of North Carolina in view of a request to make Sunday, November 28, sanitary Sabbath. On this day we hope that every minis ter in the State will preach a special health sermon, explain the little Red Cross Christmas stamp and its mis sion, explain the fight aj-inst disease, explain the warfare against consump don and appeal to the people to save themselves. We desire the service of the ministers for our first sanitary Sabbath." KiicMn. There have been a number of things connected with the adminis tration of Gov. Kitchin that, in our opinion, have entitled him to the com Ticndation of the people. To a large element in the State his conduct of office has proved a distinct surprise prehaps, we might say agreeable disappointment. Feeling this way, the Chronicle is in hearty accord .vith some expressions which it finds in the Greensboro Record. That oaper thinks Governor Kitchin is an illustration of a man who attends to his duties, no matter what the papers say. During the canvass for the nomination many were the predic tions that he would "run amuck," "The State's business would suf fer" and all that. "Instead," says rhe Rf cord' "he has remained at his oost declining invitation after invi ration, refusing to go to tha King's Mountain celebration, but he finally vielded. He should have gone and now is going to introduce Presi ednt Taf t at Wilmington next month. But these are exceptions. He sticks right to his knitting and the public is fast finding out that he is the hardest man to fool that ever held office. Cajoling him or flattering him has no effect; he insists on know ing all the case before he acts and favoritsm has no place with him. Sometime ago he approached apromi nent gentleman and asked him about the qualifications of a certain man desiring some position. He said he wanted to know if he was competent honest, sober, and a gentleman who could be relied on. The answer was yes, but his informant remarked 'but he f aught your nomination.' 'That makes no difference to me replied the Govenor; 'I want the best man for the place.' And he got the position." We think the Record would re quire too much in not wanting Gov ernor Kitchin to meet appointments among his own people. We would not have him make a hermit of him self. It is his duty, as it is his plea- FOOD AND FATIGUE. Meats and Their R edition to Muscular Exhaustion. Kest Alter Keals. The recent experiments to discov er the effect of diet on physical en durance are regarded by a writer in the Revue Scientifique as clearly in dicating that entire or partial absti nence to fatigue. He remarks that there is always a lively contest on between meateaters and vegetarians, but all questions of theory or self appreciation a part, he believes it is interesting to inquire whether flesh eaters resist fatigue better than ab stainers. He notes first a series of experiments made by our own Prof. Irving Fisher on health subjects chosen from among both flesh-eaters and vegetarians, showing that the latter resist fatigue much longer than the others. "This fact hav ing been duly established," he says, "it remains to investigate the cause." He continues: "Dr .A. Haig thinks thatjthis resist ance is acquired by all those who give up foods that are able to form uric acid; for according to him, it is this that causes fatigue. His theories have found both adherents and opponents, "According to Haig, the action of uric acid is due to the fact that it makes the blood viscous, and that therefore the heart finds difficulty in forcing it through the capillaries, so that there is an increase of blood pressure. Observation shows, in fact, that persons who have great endurance often have a low blood pressure, "Another theory than Haig's has it that flesh food contains 'fatigue poisons' which accentuate the effects of those produced by the muscular activity of the organism, "Finally according to a third theory, that of Professor Chittenden, as noted by Prof. Irving Fisher, the fatty substances and carbohydrates are burned entirely in the organism, being reduced to carbonic acid and water, which are easily crystaliza- sure, LU ciiLuiciic awui' tin- kjuh. uie: imuucs, auiuiig i iu.u o -. occasion may require, and this ap- acid.

Parents, as a rule, are more in dulgent with their children than those of a generation ago were. They are more inclined xo unov them to pursue their own sweet wills. It is out of fashion to whip a child. The school teacher that whips occa sionally is acconnted a tyrant and is soon out of a job, and if he employes severe, or even firm measures in the correction of an incorrigible youth he is in danger of having to meet and nlacate an irate parent.

"Physicians are tending to dimin ish the quantity of meat in prescrib ed diets, and are thus in accord with the theories of partisans of a non-flesh allumentation. "A large number of persons, with out being subject to any special ob ligatory diet, have cut out meat from their evening meal, without inconvenience and even with benefit Abstinence from animal food would be observed much more gen emllv if the adoDtion of this new regimen were brought about pro gressively and not suddenly, as often happens; it is necessary to habituate the stomach of it. and this habit is quickly acquired. 'It may be added that experience shows that when meat has been dropped from one's diet one feels better and never desires to return it." From The Literary Digest. The bequest of practically his whole estate to his wife made in the will of E. H. Harriman has aroused anew the old controversy as to who is the richest woman in America. This question is about as interesting and as profitable as the mooted question of who discovered the pole first, or was it revision downward, or who hit Billy Patterson or how old is Ann? Ic matters little whether Mrs. Har riman is richer than Hetty Green or Mrs. Sage. It matters a great deal, however, that 'a few women own and control so large a share of the wealth of the Republic. Below is a partial list of the men who are supposed to be richest of their sex in America: Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, Sr ceived $2,000,000 and annuity of $20 0,000 a year from her husband's es tate. Mrs. Marshall Field from hus band's estate of $20,000,000, receiv ed $3,000,000 in lieu of her dower right. Mrs. Thomas B. Wanamaker re ceived one-third of husband's estate $20,000,000. Mrs. Morris K. Jessup got $9,917, 000 from her husband's estate of $13, 000,000. Mrs. II. H. Rogers from her hus band's estate or $100,000,000, receiv ed a home and $100,000 a year. Mrs. Roswell P. Flower received the bulk of her husband's estate of $7,000,000. Mrs James Henry Smith received $3,000,000 in lieu of dower rights in her husband's estate of $30,000,000. Mrs. William K. Thaw received $10,000,000 of her husband's estate of $20,000,000. Mrs Russel Sage received all of her husband's estate of $63,750,000. Mrs. Hetty Green has made $100,- 000,000. Mrs. H. O. Havemyer received a widow's share of her husband's es tate of $20,000,000, a home and $50,- 000 a year. Miss Hellen Miller Gould received about $16,000,000 from her father's estate. Mrs. William B. Leeds has a life interest in her husband's estate of $30,000,000. Mrs. Phoebe Hearst has all of her husband's estate of $30,000,000 if she does not re-marry; $10,000,000 if she does. Mrs.Frederic C. Penfield (formerly Miss Annie Weightman) inherited $80,000,000 from her father. Mrs. Harriman has inherited an es tate valued from $50,000,000 to $150, 000,000. New Haven Union.

Sir John argued that as flesh is weak and he had more than most men, he was entitled to plead greater weakness than his fellows. Viewed in this light gentlemen of large girth and legiti mate subjects government's pater nalistic care. But Why should fat men fall under the jurisdiction of the Department of Agriculture? Our portly fellow-citizens are not vegtables, and it would be brutal indeed to classify them as live stock. They may be ponderous but they are men and brethren.

There are six really big shoe fac tories in the United States. These turned out 25,000,000 pairs of shoes last year. Shoes to the value of $340,000,000, were used in this country. Altogether the trade in rub bers increases every year, only $70, 000,000 was spent for such things last year. We are told that the preaching of vegetarianism interferes greatly with the shoe business. Last year Germany took a notion to eat less meat and, according to The Book keeper, the shoe manufactures in the land of the Kaiser were, in di pare. It is necessary to sell a great deal of meat in order that hides may be obtained without loss. This is another instance of the need of co-operation between manu facturers of all kind. Unless Swift and Armour and the other packers are able to sell their goods the fac trips in the East must do with less leather. When the factories are for ced to eet along with less leather the world must get along with fewer shoes, and must also pay a higher price for those it does buy. It is interesting to know that the foreign shoe trade is constantly in creasing.

The booking clerk was furnished with a volume, the pages of which were divided down the center by a per forated line the outside half of each page was again divided into slips about four inches long by an inch and three-quarters in width, on each of which was printed the name of the issuing station; spaces were provid ed in which the clerk had to write the destination, passenger's name, date of issue and the time the train was due to depart. One of these slips, duly filled in was detached from the book and handed over to each would-be-passenger in exchange for his fare. The traveler, having thus obtaim d his ticket, was nassed on to the guard of the train by which he de sired to travel. This othcial was provided with a kind of waybill on which he entered particulars of ai his passengers in much the same way that a parcel is served nowadays Incidentally the similarity of treat ment did not always end there, the third class passangers had to trave in an open carriage, frequently nothing more than a good truck at tached to a train, which carried both passengers and goods, more or less indiscriminately, Railway Mag; zine.
