TWO W0PDSDEFINED
Difference Between a Sanitarium and
a Sanatorium j
The words sanitarium and J
lonum are popularly understood to
have the same meaning and are gen
erally used interchangeably when des
ignnting or describing places of ref
uge for sick people but there is m
fact quite a distinction between the
meaning ot the two words In answer
to a correspondent on this subject the
Literary Digest says-
The distinction between these words
lies in the fact that they are derived
from two different Latin roots San
atorium is deried from the late Latin
sauatorius meaning health giving Th
term relates specially to an institution
for treatment ot disease or care ot in
valids especially an establishment em
ploying natural therapeutic agents or
conditions peculiar to the locality or
some specific treatment or treating
particular diseases On the other
hand sanitarium is derived from the
Latin sauitas from sanus meaning
whole or sound Sanitarium relates
more specifically to a place where the
hygienic conditions are preservative of
health as distinguished from one
where therapeutic agencies are em
ployed nence it is thu province of
a sanitarium to preserve health that
of a sanatorium to restore it Care
should be exercised in combining the
proper vowels in these two words in
order to indicate correct Iv the deriva

Teaching the Cutpurses
Stow in his account of London be
tween 15G0 and li0 depicts an inn
kept by a kind of Fagin of the time of
Queen Elizabeth One Wottou kept
an alehouse near Billingsgate
and in the same house he procured all
the cutpurses about the city to repair
There was a school set up to learn
young boys to cut purses Two de
vices were hung up The one was a
pocket the other was a purse The
pocket had in it certain counters and
was hung about with hawks bells
and over the top did hang a little scar
ing bell The purse had silver in it
And he that could take out a couuter
without any noise was allowed to be
a public foyster And he that could
take a piece of silver out of the purse
without noise of any of the bells was
adjudged a judicial nypper according
to their terms of art A foyster was a
pickpocket a nypper was a pickpurse

Igal of accusations of subterfuge eva
sion and equivocation on the part of
high government ofiicials in their ef

planations
Sugar Trust Head Benies
As an offset to the Martin allega
tions President Washington B Thom
as of the American Sugar Refining
company has given out the following
statement from the oflices of that con
cern In New York
In reference to the statement of
Congressman Martin published in one
of the morning papers in regard to
the alleged interest of the American
Sugar Refining company in the Philip
pines Congressman Martin must have
been misinformed The American
Sugar Refining company has not now
and never has had any interest direct
ly or indirectly in any lands in the
Philippines nor has it at any time
sought to acquire such interest One
of the directors of the company did
purchase land on his own account
without the knowledge of or consult
ing with the other din etors as he
considered the matter purely per
sonal
The company does not contemplate
any investments whatever in the
Philippines
The crux of the Martin crusade lies
In the fact that the organic law of
the Philippine archipelago enacted by
congress in 1102 provides that individ
uals shall be limited to the acquire
ment of forty acres and corporations
or associations to 2o00 acres of the
public domain of the islands When
last January Mr Martin read in a
newspaper that the entire San Jose
friar estate had been sold to a repre
sentative of the Havemeyer sugar in
terests and that the attorney general
with his union he decided to get into
a line of work not subject to strikes
and lockouts lie studied law withov
attending a law school
Now the Nemesis of the sugar trust
has returned to Colorado to make a
hard fiirht for re election but he de
clares that whether he stays in con
gress or not he will continue his cru
sade for the protection of the Filipino
lands from exploitation Originally it
is said he was an expansionist but
since having made a study of the
problem he has become a restrictionist

She Is Really a Wonderful Woman

A GREAT HAND WITH YARBS
She Can Brew Them Into a Medicine
That Hits the Spot Every Time and
Is Better Than a Doctors Visit
How She Made Old Pulsifer Jump
My Aunt Julia Is really a wonder
ful woman exclaimed the low browed
man placing his feet on the managers
desk She hasnt any diplomas from
medical colleges lint when it comes to
curing a sick man she can give the
ordinary doctor a start of ten years
and beat him around a block Aunt
Julia has linn faith in yarbs
Von mean herbs interrupted tin

I dont mean anything or the kind

Julia and mention yarbs and her ees

Doolittle things jie knows more than 1
Websters unadulterated dictionarv be
cause she taught school about ll 1
years ago when she was a young
man and she called my aunt down and I
said that there was 110 such word as
Aprile

and if you dont like It Mrs Doolittle
ou can lump it and be blamed to f

law relating to the islands the con-
Chairman Olmsted Cautious
The chairman of the committee on
insular affairs of the house of repre
sentatives Congressman Martin E
Olmsted says regarding Congressman
Martins statements as to the disposi
tion of the friar lauds
It would be manifestly improper for
me to comment on Mr Martins inter
view He will have ample opportunity
The principal question appears to
be one of construction of law The
United States acquired about
000 acres of land from Spain This it J
practically gave to the people of the
Philippines stipulating however that
no one person should be permitted to
acquire more than sixteen hectares
about forty acres
Congress also authorized the Phil
ippine government to buy the so called
friar lauds amounting to about 400
000 acres issue bonds to pay for thetn
and sell the lands and anply the
she made from them would have warp-
smell of the stuff when Aunt Julia
took the cork from the bottle and i
pale green sweat broke out on his j
brow But I seized him by the top of I
his head and pulled bis mouth open
and my aunt poured down about forty
kilometers of her redhot dope and
when it had sizzled into his stomach
he let out one warwhoop and streaked
out of doors like a professional Mara
thon runner When we found him a
to present to the committee any facts couple of hours later he was standin
in his possesion i iu the creek which was full of ice
ter trying to get his vitals cooled off
I defy any regular practitioner to
make a quicker cure than that Wait
