Prof. Fisher urged the establishment of an adequate system of collecting and distributing vital statistics similar to the system in use in eweden. Prof.

Fisher said In part: "Probably the greatest hygienic achievement of any country thus far Is that of Sweden, where the duration of life is the longest, the mortality the least and the Improvements the most general. There alone can it be ald that the chances of life have been improved for all ages of life. "Infancy, middle age and old age today show a lower mortality In Sweden than In times past, while in other countries. Including the United although we can boast of 80n)e reduction in infant mortality the mortality after middle age is growing worse and the Innate vitality of the people Is. in al probability, deteriorating.

"In the United States public health has been regarded almost ex clusively as a matter of protection against germs while effective in de- fending us from plague and other epidemics of acute diseases, is al most powerless to prevent the chrou-1c diseases of middle and late life. "These maladies Bright's disease, heart nervous breakdowns are due primarily to unhygienic personal habits.

There has even been a Btrong movement against the use of tobacco "There are three great agencies to Which we must look for the Sav- Ing of human life In the future and it has been the object of the Committee of One Hundred on National Health, of which 1 am president, to help stir these three agencies Into activity in this country. They are the public press, the insurance companies and the government. "A few years ago, popular articles on public health were seldom seen because the public and the press thought the subject of disease uninteresting and repulsive. Today on the other hand one can scarcely pick up. a popular magazine without finding, not only one but several articles dealing with questions of public health.

The Northwestern Wisconsin Teachers' Association convene! at Kau Claire on Oct. 18.

This is the largest sectional educational gathering in the mate of Wisconsin, even the state convention, held annually at Milwaukee, not being able to make the showing In size and enthusiasm that this convention does. Eau Claire is proud of the fart that she has come to be the permanent home of this notable gathering of educators, yet It would be impossible for our city to take care of this great convention were it not for the splendid help accorded us by the citizens. It would be Impossible to provide lodging and board for this great body, if the citizens did not come to our aid by opening their homes and assisting us in other ways. They have ever given us hearty support In the past, and we therefore desire to bespeak the continuation of this support in the approaching convention, which promises to be one of the largest, in the history of the association. During the present week and the next week, patrons) will be canvassed as to this matter of the entertain ment of visiting delegates and we trust that we will receive the same hearty support that we have had in the past.

We know that in past years some of the citizens prepared for delegates and then did not receive them, owing to the fact that some delegates who had received advance assignments could not attended the convention, and as they did not notify ua, their names couJd not be cancelled We regret the inconvenience that this would necessarily cause on the part of our patrons, and we have made every effort to impress upon the delegates, the. fact that they must notify us beforehand, in case they cannot attend. We hope that thefe will be very few such cases this year. Any patrons desiring to assist in this entertainment, who have not been canvassed by the end of the week, may send iu their names to Miss Matilda Miller, principal Sixth ward school, either through the mail or by 'phoning.

"There were those who were disposed to resent my suggestion that the president of the United States should declare himself on the questions which 1 regard as oi great public Importance. But there was one man who did not resent my suggestion that 1 made on that subject and that was William H. Tatt. "For tonight I received from his secretary a telegram Bent to me at his in which it was said that in view of the recent discus-pion he wanted me to know that he wa in favor of direct presidential primaries and would welcome such legislation and strongly adhere to that principle in the conduct of our pa: ty (affairs."

Most old poople must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation. The condition is perfectly natural. It Is Just as natural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active us youth. The muscles are less elastic.
