Dr. Dennis and Tuberculosis In his weekly talk on health topics pertaining particularly to Richmond, Dr. D. W. Dennis, head of the biological department of Earlham college, in last Saturday's issue invites all persons in whose families there are consumptives to call upon him for advice and suggestions regarding the sanitary conditions of the premises. Dr. Dennis offers his service free. Dr. Dennis does not mean that he will visit the patient in the capacity of a physician or prescribe remedies, or that he will in any way usurp the functions of a doctor. He is limiting his sphere of activity entirely to the premises. He wants to diagnose the house, the yard, the surroundings, and see if anything in the environment was conducive to the illness of the patient. It is a well established fact that lack of sani
tation, lack of sunshine, improper , ventilation, poor housing facilities are potent facts in causng tuberculosis and in spreading the germs that cause the ailment. The opinion of an authority, such as Dr. Dennis! is, on these questions would be invaluable to members of the family, and in the end would be conducive toward the eradication of the disease in Richmond. He is working as head of one of the committees of the Commercial club which is anxious to curtail the prevalence and spread of disease in Richmond. His weekly letters on health topics are printed in The Palladium each Saturday, and are well worth reading and pondering.
Foreign Trade Boom Figures submitted by Secretary of Commerce Redfield to President Wilson. show an excess of exports over imports in the amount of $600,000,000, the greater part of which covers only the last four months. It is believed that the balance of trade in favor of the United States at the end of the fiscal year, June 30, will be $1,000,000,000. This is the most remarkable showing ever made in the history of the American nation. In 1913, the sum of $700,000,000 marked the high water mark of a trade balance favoring the United States. America now commands the commercial and financial markets of the world. By supplying the warring nations with munitions and by loaning money to the belligerents on golt edge national securities.

HOLD UP PAYMENT OF SPRING TAXES Few of the big taxpayers of Richmond have paid spring installments since March 1, County Treasurer Chamness said today. The amount of taxes at this time is estimated at less than twenty-five per cent of the total spring collection. The period of taxpaying for first installment will close in two weeks. With seventy-five per cent of the taxes to be paid in, a big rush is expected to start early next week and continue until May 3, when the doors of the treasurer's office will be closed. A number of bank lists for western townships have been gotten out. The bank lists dispose of many taxpayers who would otherwise come to the court house in person to make payments. .

"A Man and His Wife"
Isabel Makes a Cajl and Her Friend Hears of a the Marital Sea.
Rift
in
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water. CHAPTER VI. (Copyright. 1915, the Star Company.) Some students of human nature say that if people love each other occasional quarrels don't inatter much. But every quarrel frays the cord of love a little, and even though that cord be of strong, tightly twisted tbre, constant friction will weaken it. John Hamilton and his wife, Isabel, did not love each other less, perhaps, because of their bitter words. But there was a rough place on the silken cord that bad once been 'entirely smooth. ; Yet when a man and a woman are married, each must try. not to notice flaws, must seem to forget past altercations. So, on the morning following the club episode, the husband did not remark upon the woman's pale face and heavy eye3, and the wife seemed to overlook the sharp tone in . which her husband complained to Cynthia that hiB coffee was cold. Each went delicately to the desire to let sleeping dogs lie. It is not natural to subsmit to any discomfort that can be avoided. All day as John Hamilton and his wife attended to their several tasks there was an undercurrent of resolution in the mind of each to prevent a repitition of the painful scene of last night. With the man, there was the determination to assert in the future his right to do as he pleased. He would not assert it verbally unless necessary. But now that he had broken the ice, he would continue to go out once in a while alone in the evening. Had he done this from the beginning of their married life, Isabel would not have been worried because of hi3 absence at the club. She was a dear girl but a little spoiled. He would do all in reason to give her pleasure, but she must not be exacting. And the wife, performing her various household duties, was pondering
if she had not been foolish to let her
entire interest in life centre in her husband. Of course, she loved him dearly, but it was evident that there were other things besides her companionship that mattered to him.
Such being the case, why might not
other things matter to her, too? Then, being a woman, she began to cast about in her mind as to how she could make John love her better.
For one thing, she would try to
keep domestic trials from him. Men liked to be comfortable, and she bad heard wives say that if one would
make a man fond of his home, one
must have that home always attractive. She -ad tried to make her flat
bright and homelike. She would go
further. She would never tell John
when Cynthia was careless, would not talk to him of the annoyance caused
by the delinquencies of the butcher's delivery boy or the forgetfulness on the part of the. grocer. Even if the : meat did not arrive until the last moment, even if she did have to telephone to the grocer three times before he sent in all her order, she would keep these facts to herself. John might care more for her if she made life easier for him. She would help him in every way she one watches the water one can see small bubbles rising, followed soon by the heads of the swimmers. And he added that, though they go under the surface together, they often come up pretty far apart." And Ida laughed merrily at the aptness of the illustration.
WENT WITH T. R. ON AFRICAN HUNT
Emory J. Pond, one of the hunters who accompanied Theodore Roosevelt on his African hunt, is one of the lion
tamers employed with Robinson's
Famous Shows. Mr. Pond joined Mr. Roosevelt's party in Rhodesia and remained until the expedition moved up towards Khartoum, when he Joined
the Robinson expedition, sent to equa
torial Africa to replenisn tne menagerie. They obtained many fine specimens, and Mr. Pond came to America a-lth them tri hrt.nlr th wild and sav
age beasts. He now has them under i
perfect control. He tells many interesting experiences while with the Roosevelt expedition, and says the Colonel was not only absolutely fearless, but often reckless in exposing himself to attacks of wild denizens of the African jungle.
But Isabel did not smile. "Well,
she remarked with dignity, "if John could. And if, in spite of her efforts, he still went out without her to the club or other masculine resort then she must try to enjoy her own friends in her own way. She Does a Little Decided Thinking. Tet if she neglected her friends until she actually needed them, how could she expect that they would welcome her return to them when she could not have her husband's company? This thought made her appreciate that since her marriage she had seen nothing of Ida Ferris, an Intimate friend of her girlhood, who had married three years ago. Ida had invited her and John to her pretty apartment on West One Hundred and Eightyfirst street, but John had said It was too far uptown for him to accept the invitation, and that his own home and wife were all that he wanted. But that was no reason why Isabel should not call on Ida. When Isabel thought out a mode of procedure, she usually acted on It promptly. So at 4 o'clock that afternoon she rang the bell of the apartment occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Will Ferris. A daintily dressed maid receiv . her card and a moment later Ida Ferris ran into the drawing-room and embraced her friend, enthusiastically. "You dear creature!" she exclaimed. "I am ao glad to see you at last! I was sure you would come sometime.
I know how it is with people when they are first married. . I have been there myself. But after a while they
remember their old friends." '
"Oh, Ida!" Isabel protested, embar
rassed by: her friend s frankness. "You ought to know that I never forgot you."
Ida laughed. "No, Bhe acknowl
edged, "not exactly 'forgot me, I
suppose. ' But young married people are ill alike. I always think of what I once heard a man say about them. He said that thy were like two swimmers who dive off a bridge together." "I don't see how," Isabel demurred. Her companion explained, her eyes dancing with amusement. "This wise man said that the pair take the plunge into the matrimonial flood side by side and disappear together from public view, remaining bidden for come time. But at last if and I come to the surface it will not be very far apart, I assure you." 8he Promises to See More of Her Friend. "Perhaps not," her companion soothed. "At any rate, don't look so sober about it. Tell me all about yourself and your new life. Now that I have gotten hold of you again I mean to see you real often." "I hope you will," Isabel said heartily. "I have come to the conclusion that I . have been staying at home more than is good for John and myself. It is only right that I should see my friends and that he should see his. If we don't we shall grow narrow." She was surprised to hear herself rattle off this platitude with such ease. Surely, she was learning her part. .When Isabel left the Ferris apartment it was after six o'clock. As her hostess returned to her drawingroom after escorting her guest to the elevator she shook her head and smiled. "I think," she whispered to herself, "that I see the bubbles rising to the surface already." (To Be Continued.)

BEVERIDGE'S VIEW OF CAUSE OF WAR
Former Senator Albert J. Beveridge, who was on both the German and French battle-front in Eurone. In a
speech asserted the war is not a conflict brought on by rulers and against the will of the people. "It la a war of peoples," he said. "I tried everywhere to find a Socialist who was averse to carying on the war but they were all for it, emphatically. They are making wonderful strides In democracy in the war ridden countries of Europe, and aa a result it seems as though they must outstrip the United States." The photo shows the senator and Dr. 8udekum of Tetlow, Germany.

GEN. GORGAS CALLED TO CLEAN UP SERBIA
Major General William C. Gorgas surgeon general of the United States army has been invited by the Rockefeller Foundation to became a permanent member of Its staff and to take charge of the work of putting down the typhus epidemic In Serbia. He has taken the offar under consideration.
Committees in charge of arrangements for a lot sale of Morton park property have met daily this week and soon will be ready to make an announcement. The date of the lot sale probably will be the second week in May. The biggest expense now at hand is the construction of a road across the dam connecting Nortb J street and the New Paris pike, both concrete roads. Piles of dirt left by the installation of a sewer system will be removed and the ground made smooth so that the naural scenic beauty of the property will not be mar-ed. Holders of concessions probably will open in the first part of May. No extensive improvements can be made until more payments have been made on the lost already sold and until funds can be raised by the sale of additional lots.
