New York.—By November 15th i the greatest exhibition on tuberoulo- i sis that has ever been gathered will be opened to the public in New York City. The exhibit, which formed part of the recent International Congress on Tuberculosis, will be shown under the auspices of the Tuberculosis Com mittee of the Charity Organization Society, and the Department of Health. The exhibition consists of charts, photographs, maps, models, diagrams, and all sorts of paraphernalia that have to do with the prevention, study, or treatment of tuberculosis. Exhibits are shown from 15 different i countries, and from 200 associations i and individuals. All in all, the exhi- ! bition includes nearly 5,000 units. It will take 50,000 square feet of floor space and 110,000 square feet of wall space for the display of the exhibi tion. Ten special cars and over 1,200 packing cases are required to trans port it. During its three weeks’ stay in Washington, this exhibit was viewed by fully 200,000 people. The exhibit of the Charity Organization Society, which forms but one small unit of this entire exhibition, has been view ed by over a half-million people in New York City. From these figures, and a comparison with the attend ance of similar exhibitions, it is esti mated by the authorities in charge of the present exhibit, that probably over a million people will see this Latest Mill Newt.

Lexington, Nov. 3.—Congressman Lever is in receipt of gratifying news relative to the farmers’ demonstra tion work in this State, as is shown in the following letter from Dr. S. A. Knapp, who is in general charge of the work in the Southern States. It will be good news to the farmers to know that there will be no let-up in the work: Washington. D. C., Oct. 30. 1908. Dear Mr. Lever: After going over our work in South Carolina we found that, with the funds at our disposal for next year, we sould not do all that I desired, and in order to keep my promise to you good I went to New York this week and secured $3,000 additional to be used in South Carolina. I think now that we can carry out everything that we have undertaken, and we will try to make the work thoroughly effective in your district and in as much of the State as we can reach.

He does not intend to enter the cam paign, but will rest from his travels, and be ready for the approaching session of congress in December. The senator said that he had read the Archbold and McLaurin dis closures, and that the light had been turned at last on to the acts and do ings of the “commercial Democracy gang.” With unusual vigor the sen ator said: “What I would like to know now is this, ‘what newspaper in the State received any portion of that five thousand dollars from the Standard Oil, and why is it, the dif ferent detective editors within the State have not taken the trouble to ascertain what newspapers supported the ‘commercial Democracy gang’ and publish the list so that the people could know who the beneficiaries were.’ ” Continuing, he said: “Certain newspapers have been very vigilant in ‘raking up’ past records. Now let them come forward and give the peo ple the names of the bobtail papers in the State that were knocking at the doors of the Standard Oil treas ury for ‘lubrication.’ Had it not been for the unexpected death of Presi dent McKinley it would be difficult to say just now much harm would have been done to the Democracy of the State by the sleuth-like editors of South Carolina so long as they were receiving ‘substantial support.’ ” Foley’s Honey and Tar clears the air passages, stops the irritation in the throat, soot lies the inflamed meubranes, and the most obstinate cough disappears.

Crawley Drug 0& Why Salves Fail While a Simple Liquid Has Accomplished Thous ands of Cures. It is now thoroughly established among the best medical authorities that eczema is purely a skin disease, due to a germ and curable only through the skin. It is not a blood disease at all; in fact, thousands of people suffer with skin disease and are perfectly healthy otherwise, and therefore prove they have no dis eased blood. Smeary salves cannot reach the germs because they do not penetrate the skin. The only way to reach the germs is by means of a penetrating liquid. Such a liquid can be obtained by simply mixing ordinary oil of wintor- green with thymol, glycerine and other healing agents. This compound known as D. D. D. Prescription stops the itch instantly—and the cures all appear to be permanent. In fact, it took thousands of cures, case after case, before the best scientific au thorities were convinced of the ab solute merit of this remedy. The ef fect of D. D. D. Prescription in numb ing the itchtng eczema germs is seen within one minute after the first ap plication. We especially recommend D. D. D. Soap in connection with this treatment. Gaffney Drug Co. German exhibit, a series of small painted wooden pillars and blocks of different heights, demonstrate the comparative mortality of the people. The United States Census Bureau shows the deaths from tuberculosis in a unique way, indicating by a flash of electric light that someone is dy ing from tuberculosis in the United States every two minutes and thirty- six seconds; 23 every hour, and 548 every day. Some of the most interesting ex hibits are those showing the treat ment of tuberculosis. One fact Is emphasized, however, in every sana torium, “shack,” or dwelling-house offered as a means of treating con sumption, and that is that the patient must have an abundance of fresh air. Every model of buildings shown is designed to give a maximum amount of fresh air to the patient both day and night. Balconies, bouses, tents, and groups of buildings of every sort show this phase of the cam paign against tuberculosis. The numerous means employed to spread the “gospel of fresh air, rest and wholesome food” are shown in pamphlets, books, phonographs, and small exhibits. Hundreds of tons of literature are being prepared for free distribution at the coming exhibition. Everyone who attends will be able to receive information on any sure of the tuberculosis problem in any of the American or European lan guages. Among the individual exhibits, which will be shown In New York are eight, which recently received from the International Congress on Tuberculosis, prizes ranging in value from $1,000 to $100. Besides these, 44 of the exhibits to he shown were recipients of gold medals, and 43 of silver ones. The exhibition will remain in New York City for one month. At the end of that time, it will be broken up into several units, the various States, countries, and individuals who have contributed to it, taking their respec tive parts with them. It is probable, however, that part of the exhibition will be shown in several other large cities of the country. is simply a question of intelligent in- *«>„ Mills determined to put into fl, U j consequently the mill property vestigation and. more than all, of | operation at once both their mills, 1 • [ . t \ t having the will to economize. k ne ot which has been closed during hLLIs uJ thf “But there are other ways to coo-j Hie financial stringency.

This is true of both the virgin forests and the cut-over lands. Virgin forests are often fully stocked with first class timber, hut this stock has been laid in very slowly, on account of the wasteful competition which is car ried on constantly between the rival trees. Then, too, in the virgin for ests there are very many trees which have reached maturity and stopped growing, and these occupy space which, if held by younger trees, would be laying in a new stock con stantly. As regards the cut-over land, severe putting, followed by fire, has checked growth so seriously that In most cases reproduction is both poor and slow, while In many other cases there is no true forest repro duction at all at present, and there is but little hope for the future.” “There are many paradoxes in na ture,” said the boarder who wants to be an end man, “and here is one of ’em.
