Educational Leaflet Issued by Kingston Association. "We are all diseased, And, with our surfeiting and wan- ton hours, Have 0 barning fever Tubercilosis infection niay: take place at any age It usually occurs during childhood. The germs lodge in the lymph glands. Fully sixty per cent. of children during the school age have some enlarged glands in ther vecks which usually means tubercle bacilli in their lymph glands. These bacilli live én the glands, watching for an opportunity to invade the lungs. This opportunity comes if the person 'rims down," ie., if the general re sistance of the body is lowered from any cause. Impure air, insufficient nourishing food, over-study, bad sani- tary swrroundings, ete., lower the re sistance of the body. The maintenance of good general health prevents the escape of the bacilli from the lymph glands and these bacilli, if locked up for w sufficient time, die. The mor- tallty among tuberculous children has fallen forty per cent. in the last tem years, due largely to improved meth- ods of feeding and living.' The earhi- est symptoms of the disease in both children and aduits may vary much. The principal ones are: Less of appe- tite, loss of weight, fatigue on shght exertion, general feeling of languor, lack of emergy and ambition, rapid pulse, fever in the afternoon and even- ing, and cough, which is most notice- able in the morning. The cough may have existed . for months with practically no impair- ment of the general health, or the slight morning back may have ocea- sioned so little annoyance, that the patient will deny having a cough at all, or will remember it only after careful questioning. There are others who are subject to "colds" --colds which occur with increasing frequency, each - one resisting treatment more stubbornly than the one which pre- ceded §t, until finally ome remams. Many cases of consumption progress to a serious stage, supposed to be "malaria," 'chromic grippe," and the fike. Gradual loss of weight in a per- son between fifteen and thirty should arouse suspicion. As the disease pro- rresses the symptoms become more distinctive. The evident wasting, the daily fever, tha ummatural brightness of the eyes, the flushed cheeks, the hight sweats and the continued cough and expectoration indicate all too ninly the progress of the disease jhen this stage is reached, the infec- tion is always far advanced. Any or all of the symptoms should cause the patient to seek at once medical advice. Unfortunately many comsumptives fail '0 hitxd the advice given them. This is especially true in the earlier stages of the disease, when the patient in- stead of availing diannll o a method of cure, spends most of his time in rving to , himself, his friends snd even his physician, that an error has been made in his case. Every hour so spent is wasted and the chances for cure just so much lessened. V-------- WHITE RIBBON SOCIAL Was a Fine Event in Temperance Circles. The White Ribbon social held at the home of Mrs. H. Day, Division street, Tuesday evening, Was a great success in point of attendance and interest manifested. The large parlors were crowded. A certain sadness pervaded she opening of the meeting when it was leawrned that the president could uot be present, on account of illness, but when it was found that it was not of a serious nature, confidence was restored. The programme was admir- ably carried out by Mrs. (Rev) Craig, first vice-president, Mrs! (Dr.) R. FE. Sparks, second vice-president, assisting. Mrs. Sparks conducted a missionary programme on lumber camp work, showing how arduous the tabors of the.missionary are in the midst of almost insurmountable diffi- culties. But by patient effort, earnest endurance and brotherly kindnesy, with God's grace, much good has been achieved. A solo by Mrs. Evans, | "The Volunteer Organist," was de- ightfully' rendered and greatly appre ciated. Miss H. Chown related the story of Harold Beghie's remarkable spook, "Twice Born Men," giving sev- eral pathetic incidents of wen reduced through drunkenness and vice to the lowest level of humanity, who had been reclaimed and were living in re- newed comfort and happiness with heir families, and were using their forts to reclaim others as degraded x more so than they themselves had been.

Ottawa, March 2--A complaint from J. H. Dunlop, a Toronto florist, that the hypochlorite treatment of | the water 'there is proving -ipjurious +t plant life, is investigated by the experimental farm experts. The subject is "n important one, not only to Toronto, but to Montreal, Ottawa and other cities using the "hypo" tem of water purification hence the interest of the dominion awthomnties. "Mr, Dunlop, whe is a grower much experience, has noticed a ness about his plants, which he claims has become apparent only since To- roto started to use hypochlorited water, and consequently attributes this sickness and delay in blooming to the treatment of the water," said F. T. Shutt, an analyst, at the expen- mental farm. "We are not only going into the matter to discover whether the hypo really does produce this ei- fect, but are experimenting in the diréction of finding a remedy for it is one of great scientific and com- mercial importance. Of course there is no doubt that hypochlorite in large quantities would be injurious to flow- ers, but the question is whether the amount in the city water is sufficient to injure them," HOW LOBBYIST 1S MADE Has Been Made Subject of Leading Article. How lobbying is carried on gt Ot. tawa, how the struggling lawyer worms his way into the favor of the party and becomes a professional leb- byist, is 'the subject of the leading article in Maclean's Magazive for March. Blank, a struggling provincial law ver of good family, made himself =» strong party man. By applieation and industry he secured a little promin- ance among. the liberals of his, dis trict. Every time he had a chance he did little favors for passing eabinet ministers. One day his great oppor- tunity came. There was an embarrass: ing quarrel up in the country in his old home town, between two factions of the party. The quarrel was serious. ly embarrgssing the government and a proposed cabimet minister. The merry ttle lawyer went to his old home town and worked like a beaver. He took care that the party chiefs at Ottawa should see that he was work ing, and on a certain day the premier called him and said, "Mr. Blank, you simply must get that man to resign." "But it is impossible," objected Blank, who was really disheartened. "Mr. Blank," said Laurier, "it must be done and 1 leave it to you--No. Do not say you cannot. I know you can, No. No. Do not say a word. You will do it, I am certain. Good-evening." Blank decided that the premier was right. He went to his constituency and by hard work did what was re quired, ) Two weeks after the whole thing was settled the party remembered to thank Mr. Blank. Cabinet ministers thanked the little lawyer. The premier himself summoned him and / thanked Lim and added: "We are greatly in vour debt, Mr. Blank. When you see an opportunity for the party to repay you don't hesitate to tell the party. It will not forget your service." As a lobbyist, as a franchise grab- ber's tool, Blank was 'made.' A year liter he was approached by a group Ol from parkament. They had heard that Blank had 'pull.' Blank named his fee and accepted the commission. He mentioned what he wanted and then reminded the liberal party. The liber- al party thanked him for the oppor- tunity of doing him a favor. The group of gentlemen secured their wish. Marvied in Lennox, | In North Fredericksburg, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Crouse, the marriage was solemmnized of their daughter, Miss Annie Crouse, Toronto, to Herbert German, Northport.

T. C. Cassidy, in a few { well-chosen remarks of welcome and 'good cheer, began the second part of the evening's entertainment. Three toasts, "Our School," "Our Church," and "Our Country were, in bright and pithy speeches, proposed by Messrs. Gordon, M. Bennington and W. J. Cooke respectively. Afterwards W, Valleau and Dr, R. a former pastor, delivered an addrers, taking as a central 'thought, "This is the Layman's Age." During the evening two or three choruses were sung. Messrs. O'Shea, Gordon and Ward sang a trio, Mrs. | Stillwell and Miss Cooke a duet and solos were rendered by Mrs. W, J. Cooke and Mrs. Stillwell, all con- bining to make up a most delightful evening. 1S THIS TRUE OF OTTAWA? The Doings of a Lobbyist at the Capital. The other night, says' T. A.
