DIKED TOCOUHTRY United States Threatened by The Deadly Bubonic Plague. MAGAZINE ISSUES WARNING
New York, Oct 10. The current isBue of Collier's contains an article which declares there Is danger of the bubonic plague spreading over the country. It declares that the plague lias not been stamped out In San Francisco and that the authorities ol that city are suppressing the facts about it Warning is Given Nation. Tho artir.la Is headed "Danger," and eavs: "The United States is threatened by the bubonic plague. This statement, abrupt and alarming, is one which must be made. Introduced about ten years ago, the plague was confined to one district of San Francisco until tne earthquake. Infected rats were then scattered through the city and human cases developed in other districts. . "The San Franciscans began a cam paign, which has continued and is satisfactory. Isolated cases occurred also in other cities about the bay. The total number of cases has much increased and whites are now attacked, whereas before the fire it was almost entirely Chinese and Japanese. A large percectage die. One most serious aspect of this situation, moreover has developed in the iast two years. Plague has been discovered in the ground squirrels about the bay. Says Facts Are Concealed. "Now every effort is being made in the infected district to conceal the facts. This is folly, filled with peril. Mistaken business calculations lead Oakland, which should be one of the most active cities to combatjplague, to refuse appropriations for that pur pose. ."-' "The danger is one which can be controlled if It Is recognized. The serious menace is caused by the short sighted notion that a business advant age is, to be gained by- concealment If the infected districts will not do their work properly, sooner or later the whole United States may pay, and pay a price too terrible to consider. Lies will 'not help. Only sound and thorough sanitary measures may save this land. California can check the danger now. If she fails she may later be ouarantirid by her sister states."

Brashes, as every good housewife knows,, are an important part of the household care and the household economies. There must always be a sufficient supply of brushes on hand, and these must always be kept in good condition. - One of the newest and best Inventions In the brush line Is now on the market and is called a radiator brush. To the housewife who has tried to remove the surplus accumulation of dust from between the pipes of a steam radiator this brush will particularly appeal. .The handle is long, and the brush part Is narrow, allowing easy access to the dirt covered parts. A new sink and window cleaner Is a useful thing to possess. It is made with a brush on one side and a narrow strip of rubber on the other, which serves as a drier. A good article to have near the sink resembles a small dustpan, and attached to It Is a brush which is invaluable in cleaning the sink. An Imported brush for the cleansln; 'of the sink has just arrived on the market and owing to its usefulness and cheapness bids fair to be the most popular of sink cleansers. A new idea Is being shown in the way of a .furntture brush, the bristle? behv? -;;dr.:Ufl I:i size. .th? ocatcr

Feather dusters are as old as dust cloths, but are still considered by some persons as the most essential of dirt exterminators. New ideas are being worked into the manufacture of these dusters all the time. One of the many good points In their favor Is the detachable handle. Cuspidor brushes are a great boon to those whose lot it is to keep them In order. The brush part is about three inches square and made of the same bristly stuff as a scrubbing brush. The handle is long enough to reach the bottom of the deepest cus pldor. The sanitary brush Is one of the greatest of household conveniences. The handle is very long, being made of wire, and the bristles entirely cover one end of the brush. No bathroom should be without one of these brushes. When one has In the kitchen a small plate cleaner the greasy pans and ket ties are a minor consideration. The article mentioned has a small half circular piece of rubber which is held in place by a wire or heavy tin han dle. After this Is drawn over the dishes a few times all the surplus grease is removed. Of Interest to Women. Mrs. Philip Snowden of London, one of the most celebrated of English suf fragists, will be a speaker at the na tlonal convention of woman suffra gists to be held In Buffalo Oct 15 to 21. Mrs. Snswden's husband is a member of parliament and she will bring to her American colleagues the true story of the suffragette movement in Great Britain. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Practice deep breathing. A person with fully developed lung capacity purifies his blood several times per minute. A cup of cold water before retiring and a cup of hot water in the morning before breakfast work like magic as a cure for indigestion. Almond meal Is preferred by some women to soap and acts as a pleasing alternate to soap at any time. This softens, cleanses and whitens the skin. The most easily digested foods which contain the greatest amount of nourishment and are free from acids and starches are those best adapted to the child's needs. Rubber gloves to wear when wash lng china and old kid gloves when dusting are an Inestimable boon to housekeepers, for nothing so ruins the skin as coarse soaps, soda and dust To soften and perfume the bathing water mix together four ounces of al cohol, one-half ounce of ammonia and one dram of oil of lavender. A few drops of this mixture will be nffleient for a bowlful of water. Maltese Muskrats. One of the most objectionable of the pests that intrude Into houses in Malta Is the mnskrat Everything be touches is impregnated with the odor from which he derives his name. In a wine cellar he Is worse than a dishonest but ler. In a larder he Is more destructive than a dozen cats. From pure wanton ness be taints and renders uneatable everything within his reach. His odor is so powerful and at the same time so penetrating that dozens of bottles o beer may be ruined by his merely run nine over the bottles. The muskrat is a squeaking little animal who commit; his enormities at night, and he adds in suit to injury by disturbing the repose of the victims of his depredations.London Stnd?rd King Cotton. According to the common under standing, the expression "king cotton.' or "cotton is king,' was first used by the Hon. James H. Hammond in the Tear 1858. Hammond was from the state of South Carolina, the chief prod net of which commonwealth waa cotton. Mr. Hammond's Idea was that cotton, being the great commercial ex port of this country and the chief art ele of manufacture in Great Britain, was "king" and that no politics was allowable that crossed the grain of the clng's, Interests.
