New York Providence Boatof Washington Cincinnati Chicago Philadelphia Pittsburgh Buffalo Davenport Cleveland1 Worcester St Louie Detroit ttl TUBERCULOSIS KILLS 20 DAILY IN STATE Wipe out a preventable disease that Mils twenty Pennsylvanians every day, is the plea made by Colonel Henry W. Shoemaker, in announcing his acceptance of the chairmanship of the 1926 sale of Tuberculosis Christmas Seals in Pennsylvania. Colonel Shoemaker, who as business man, historian and forester, is one of the best informed men on Pennsylvania, says: "Twenty Pennsylvanians are killed daily by tuberculosis. These figures mean this preventable disease in 1025 took the lives of 7300 persons, or 78 out of each 100,000 population.

For every death there are at least nine active cases of tuberculosis. Every person with active tuberculosis is incapacitated for a period ranging from aix months to six years. It makes one do some thinkingl "Back of all these deaths is an even greater number of tragedies. These are the sad details revealed in stories of families wiped out by tuberculosis, of children orphaned, and of parents who have lost little ones. They are known to all physicians, nurses, health and church workers, as well as to practically every individual.

"The White Plague continues to be a most serious menace in our family and economic life despite the progress already made in fighting it Closely allied with this progress is the united effort of the local, state and national tuberculosis organizations. Their work must be enlarged if tuberculosis is to be1 brought entirely under control, and eventually stamped out" SOME SYMPTOMS For one's self and for one's associates the recognition of one or more of the signs that create suspicion of the development of tuberculosis is of value in promoting early treatment These symptoms are seldom all present at one time. The symptoms comprise: Lot of atrength, of pep, of appetite. Fever in the afternoon or evening. Spitting of blood.

Edison, the electrical wizard.

People used to aay, "Are yon there?" or similar things when they answered the telephone. According to the story, one day Edison responded to a ring on his line by saying "belW into the transmitter. A more modern and approved method of answering the telephone is given by The Bell Telephone Company of Pennsylvania. To start off the conversation in an efficient manner, the person answering should his name as: "Mr. Brown speaking," or "Mr.

Brown's telephone, Mias Smith speaking" (if secretary or stenographer answsr the call). This saves time and starts the conversation on its way with no confusion. Ia answering from a residence telephone, the approved method is to give the telephone number.
