Dr. Evan*, former health commis- sioner of.Chicago, will speak at tbe Evanston Woman's club thla evening, his subject to be the tuberculosis sit- uation In EvanBton. Evanston Is in a position which calls for help from the outside, from a disinterested source. Some weeks ago the members of the Tuberculosis In- stitute met to discuss ways and means of determining the extent ol tbe disease in tbe city. That organi- sation lias found its path a difficult one to travel because of tbe seeming impossibility to obtain any records of cases which are not in need of medi- cal or financial aid from tbe public To make anything like a successful fight against tbe spread of tubercu losls, to gain any sort of control over Its ravages, It l« necessary that tbe organisation wbich is making tbe fight know all that it is possible to know of tbe strength of tbe enemy ana Its location. Such knowledge re- quires accurate reports of all cases and a public record. This, it wis pronounced by tbe members of tbe Tuberculosis Insti- tute who are also members of tbe medical fraternity, to be impossible to secure, Phytioion* cannot report case* Jof- tuoerculoeUwhich come into their tare without the consent of the "pa- tient, a condition wblcb Is seldom ex- istent It may be, and we hope it will be, that Dr. Evans trill be able to suggest some way by wblcb this unfortunate combination of circumstances is to be overcome. If be cannot, the city of Mr-: J§y ____ „__ fr^^iiaiirTg^ this, ll^T one of tbe most serious, of the ones* jfelS turns she has to face. |pr'". . mm * •,<:£*â- â- â- ;â- . il<;S;:,'..â- " TBB FA8S102T IN BOOKS. ; :M^5te reading of real literature is • ^'growing more and more' out of fash- - '§Jfion. particularly among children and r |*f'young people and one of the best ' l^means -of knowing and .appreciating 'a f Ithe English language passing from \: Ji0*m*i The numberless "series" of /;:jboys' books, talei of the wildest and 'â- most Improbtble adventures of boy scouts, boy rangeri, and what not, have eclipsed those tamer experiences of Robinson Crusoe and his sort High school students era compelled to read ;fienry Esmond, Ivanhoe, and some half dosen of Biuousruns'* plays, rebell- ing the while that the products of the ready fiction writer moat for the time give place to these "dull and stupid" ^verily It swan that the boy «t» generation or w ajgo, who could find only tbe Bible and an old edition of SKaKcsrKABB to satisfy h|s love of reading was far more fortunate than the child of today, who has his way beset by trash but little better than the "penny dreadful." * * * A PLEA FOR IN EQUAL CHANCE. The chivalry which shows itself In deference, consideration and protec- tion of a woman, because of her. wom- anhood, irrespective of class or sta- tion, has, apparently, taken its definite departure from among us. Bigger rights and privileges have come to take Its place and women are not re- pining. However, if woman Is to enjoy an equal privilege with men In standing in street cars, justice de- mands that she ihould be made no less uncomfortable than her fellow travellers. In all our train* special cars are provided for men who wish to smoke, and incidentally otter greater op- portunity to enjoy the relative pleas- ure of a scat, but that discrimination is inconsiderable. The real complaint which women street car travellers have to make is in the disposition and height of the straps. They are will- ing to be straphangers, it that is a part of the greater liberty they are granted, but, to the majority of ^om- en even the scant comfort of a- strap is denied because of the height at which they hang and tbe inconveni- ence and unpleasant proximity to seated passengers which they entail. Let the men occupy the seats, if they choose; but let them giro to their fellow women (offerers an equal chance to maintain their equilibrium and their dignity by means of a strap bung within tbelr reach. ' m m * TO BBS THEMBELTBB. If, in the process of evolution, matt' kind has passed through the ruminat- ing period, certainly it was at a period sufficiently remote to make the ap- pearance of the chief characteristic of that species unlikely to manifest it- self In anything like a general way. So it is that one is driven to find some other explanation for the fact that about two of every three persons in an audience of a general sort, and on street cars and trains, are devoting an excessive amount of muscular energy to the chewing of sum. It is small wonder tnat the Ameri* can people have schiered the very un- desirable reputation of being a nation Illinois' Federation ofWoiffitfs Clubs to Meet in Evanston During the Middle »fc Next Month; ; 700 DELEGATES EXPECTED The .Bureau of Information is in chargeof Mrs. W.

Be- cause of the sise and locatka of the First Methodist church It was at first thought the meetings would be held there.

This left three other possibilitiesâ€"the First Presbyterian, the First Baptist and the Congregational, Board Aopreelatee Offer. Tbe Board appreciate the courtesy of these churches In offering the use of their buildings and regret tnat they are not able to use all three. Aiter carefully considering the matter It was decided that the Congregational church would best serve the require- ments of the Convention.
