The prevalence of tuberculosis is
alarming an i auvthing tending to
ameliorate the condition of the tub
ercular patient should he carefully
adopted. People who are predis
posed to the disease should be
trained in the care, of- their bodies.
The large ptr cent of the young
who die-from the dreaded disease
have, 110 doubt, brought 011 an
earlier death by careless habits. The
habit of wearing insufficient cloth
ing about the chest late hours of
dissipation and other strains on the
body have tended largely to in
crease the spread of the disease.
It is high time that people were
awakening to the danger that is
. threatening their own families.
"Stop My Paper"
The highest duty of an editor is
to battle with wrong. This, of
course, brings him in conflict with
wrong doers and they ate apt to
show their spite in various ways
It is quite common for the thin
skinned or wounded to rush into
the office and shout "Stop my pa
per!" Thisclass is pointedly shown
up in the following fashion: A cer
tain man hit his toe against a peb
ble, and fell headlong to the ground
He was vexed, and undet influence
of anger and self-sufficiency be
' kicked mother earth right saucily.
With imperturbable gravity, he
looked to see the earth itself dis
solved and come to naught. sut j
I '
the earth remained, and only his
( poor foot was injured in theencoun-;
ter This is the way of man An
atticle in the newipaper touchts f
hipi in a weak spot, and forthwith
he sends to stop his paper. With
great complacency he look? to see
the crash, when be finds he only
hit his toe against a world that does
not perpetually feet the shock, and
injures 110 one but himself.
