' Call ta Areas.
"A call ta the 'ministry is a call to arms

WAR ON THE WHITE PLAGUE
DUclosarr af Medical eeret Deemed
af Great Importance ta
Mankind.
Publication in Philadelphia of Dr. Randle
C. Rosenberger'a discovery haa already
been made In the following description of
the technique of this new step in bacteri
ology, which is toth authentic and com
plete In every detail.
A patient auapected of having tubercu
losis germs In the blood is brought before
his physician and a tourniquet is bound
tightly about his arm in order to bring
the veins Into prominence. From any vein
of sufficient size at tha elbow the blood Is
drawn with a hyperdermic syringe, after
the skin at the spot selected has been first
sterilized chemically to insure the removal
ef every possible means or infection of
contamination from the skin itself.
About two teaapoonfuls of blood is drawn
from tha vain, pnd the needJeprick is
dressed and bandaged, there being no re
sultant pain or trouble beyond a alight
Itching for a few moments.
The fclood withdrawn Is Immediately
mixed with a sslt solution to prevent Us
clotting, and the tuba containing it is
placed on ica for twenty-four hours. Herein
lies the radical difference between the
"cuitk-atlon" or growing of the typhoid
germ fn wiiat Is known as "culture
mediums," wherein beat plays a part.
The normal salt solution In which blood
suspected of containing tuberculosis germ
is placed roost clearly conforms to the
elements of tha blood Itself and in addition
there la Introduced about 2 per cent citrate
of soda.
After twenty-four hours time the blood
has settled In the vlai. and this sediment
which has gone to the bottom of the glass
le" withdrawn, siphon-like through a hollow
tube. Being spread upon small glass slides
this blood is dried on a small atrip of metal
held firmly In place above a small, even
gaa flame. Thoroughly dry. It Is almost
indestructible except through breaking the
glass slide Itself.
This sUdes are next immersed in dis
tilled waterand llie red corpuscles are
removed by this means. The slide Is again
dried. .It Is next "stained." Immersed In
caroed fufhln. a red stain for five minutes,
the entire slide is stained red; Immersed
again for five minutes In what la known
as Pappenheim's solution, .a blue ataln.
the entire slide Is atalned blue with the
exception of the tuberculosia germ itself,
which remains red. Therein ia the entire
Rosenberger "secret."
Under the microscope these red germs
are revealed sgainst the blue field,
The scientists then knows his patient
has consumption germs in the blood.
To the medical profession the value of
this technique and the discoveries It per
mits lies in Its furnishing a means of
making n Immediate truthful diagnosis
of the presence of tuberculosis In the
patient.

the strangest entanglements three per

that aha married him knowing that her

Tha shooting this afternoon occurred
over the Bending of a comic valentine.
The girl, who styles herself ss Mrs. Cora
Smith, while her, mother ia known by
tha name of Mrs. William Smith, sent
tha carpenter a comic valentine. Smith
grew angry when he received It and,
after packing up hla clothes, s(arted to

to be limitless. Mr. Dupont Is very cood

work well.
Mis De Vyne makes Nellie Ramsey a

to win the heart of even a lawyer bent
on reforming people; but the action of the
play demands that she be disappointed in
her desire for Latimer. Miss Spencer is
Playing two parts snd playing them both
well. As Mra. Latimer she is sweet and

Peggy OMara waa made to be such a

"The Night of tha Wedding" is a vaude
ville offering somewhat out of the ordinary.
It is a one-set plsy dealing with a little
girl, her widowed father and a prospective
stepmother, and deserves commendation bc
cauae of Its successful attempt at genuine
realism, and also for being excellently
acted. Richard Duffy, who wrote It, re
fused an obvious temptation to make the
woman utterly and continuously brutal to
the little girl, although, of course, she was
far from kind and struck one blow. Miss
Dunlap and Mr. McCormack are convinc
ing in the adult roles and the child of 10
to U years rather better than tha average
of like age.

adequate accessories for the Interpretation
of the piece. Not much that is new exists
in the Idea of a woman turning her back
on home and child during the height of
Jealous anger; only the incidentals are new
In the praaent production, so the company
now at the Krug has ample opportunity to
show its power to hold attention.
And it succeeds quite creditably. Uer

"Do you know thla ia your birthday?"
Thus did Tom Conners, real old-timer and
champion middleweight wrestler of Eng
land greet Farmer Burns, when ha called
to visit him at the gymnasium where
Burns was conducting -his school of
wrestling.
"That's right," replied the Fstmer. "but
how do you remember? I haven't seen you
for eighteen years."
"I ought to be able to remember it. Tou
are yeare old today and 1 will be 41
years old tomorrow." and thus did the two
best men of their weight and age In the
world go on and talk over old times.
Conners has come from England to this
country to take on a few matches and
to look over the country where he had
many a former triumph when twenty
years ago he went across the country,
thromtng all comers In handicap matches.
Connera has a clipping In his pocket from
a London paper in which Gotch says that
Conners is responsible for his being
champion wrestler of the world. The In
terview states that If Conners had not
sent Farmer Burns to the fore Farmer
would not have been the man ha is and if
Burna had not oeen as good as he Is hs
never would have made a champion out of
Gotch.
Meeta the Tark.
While in Milwaukee last week Conners.
although he weighs only ISO. wrestled a
hard match with Toussif MahmoJt, the
Turk, but he says he does not want to
make any more of those kind of matches
against the big fellows as it Is too much
of a strain on him. He takes the ssme
position In the matter as does Farmer
Burns.
Conners will remain in Omaha for a few
days to see If he can arrange a match and
will then continue his journey west.
Twenty years sgo Conners threw Farmer
Bums, but he says that the Farmer has
advanced too much in the knom ledge and
science of the game and In weight so that
he could not hope to throw him now.
"I have never seen that man. Gotch."
said Conners, "but I know he is a wonder;
indeed, he is a marvel. He sent me word
over In England to run over to London
and see lilm. but I couldn't mske It. I
surely must see him.
"But. ah. I want to tell you. this old
man Burns is the wonder. He's the great
man."
'eetergward aad the Tark.
Manager Gillan of the Auditorium has a
letter from Jack Curley, manager for
Mahmout, the Turk, asking about a match
In Omaha between the Turk and Jeese
Westergsard. Mr. Glllan's reply to Curley
will be that a match may be pulled off
providing It is to a finish and no handicap.
Handicaps are down and out In Omaha at
this writing. And he will also state to
Mr. Curley that "the Turk will have to
work and work hard."
He will certainly have to go if he throws
Jess. Westergaard is marr than willing to
meet the Turk. He passed through Omaha
a few days ago going t to- -Denver, and
evinced a willingness for). a -finish match
with Mahmout . Omaha fes will welcome
a chance to see this yoimg glsnt go on
with the Turk. They believe he csn give
him all he wants. 1
The Auditorium will re occupied by the

Gasoline makes the world go round. It
takes 150,000.000 gallons a year to move the
wheela of th automobiles in use in the
I'nited States alone and lSO.On0.O00 more to
spin the tires of motor cars on the con
tinent. These figures niean. in round num

I year' for gasoline.
Sixty million 'dollars would pay for the
building and equipment of fifteen battle
ships of the Indisna type or six Dread
noughts. '
Sixty million dollars would pay within
f,0W.0u the yearly carfare bill of J,u00,C0
New Yorkers.
Sixty million dollars would pay the com
bined electric light and gas bills of New
York for one year.
It can be said with moderation that gaso
line as a generator of motive power haa
been the chief fsctor In the development
of tiie modern automobile. Time was when
gasoline was sunk In Innocuous desuetude
as the cleaner of the family' one pair of
white gloves or prominent as the agent
anlch assisted heavenward small boys who
investigsted it with lighted matches. These
were the days when the possibilities of the
by-product were dormant, much less look
ing forward to the time when hair and hide
teeth and nails, should become, in some
form or other, articles of commerce.
In th arly days of the petroleum In
dustry, when ther were no "pipes" or Up
lines, no attention wss paid to naphtha, the
refining of which produces gasoline. Ther
waa a big and Immediate market for illumi
nating oil, and immense quantities of naph
tha were wasted, being allowed to evapo
rate or being burned In pits. A small
amount was used for fuel under boilers, but
for Uia most part the chief anxiety wa to
get rid or it.
Gasoline todsy is procurable ail over the
world, and in civilised countries one rarely
need carry larger quantity than th sup
ply tank of the machine will hold, as the
various insnufacturers and dealers have th
supply so arranged that It is always ob
tainable. When one considers the manufacture,
handling and distribution of the 1jO.000.OiM
gallons used In the United States alone, and
thst it is possible to obtain a supply of sat
isfactory quality not only In the cities, but
In tha country districts, hs appreciates what
the automobile means to the oil man. -Washington

MAKING THE NEW COMPLEXION
ets Its Tint fcy Saeeestlea, Being
Wltaoat a Trace af
Calar.
Th correct complexion Is pearlike with
out a trace of color except save that in
th indeacrlbable pallor of the perl. Th
perl gets Its tone by reflection snd th
complexion ef th girl who Is going to be
cUed a winter beauty must et Its tint
by suggestion.
"Th fashionable skin," says she. "must
be without any decided tone. It must h
creamy like th pearl, but there must nisi
b that peculiar clarity cf the pearl which
is so deep and cler that it actuslly re
flect color.
'I give my pupils practical Instructions
in the making of such cleansing applica-
tiot s as the skin needs. One of my best
lotions Is called the pearl cream, which I
make myself and which I teach them to
n ske for themselves.
"I send out to ths meat market for soma
cr th best sheep fat I csn obtain. t
have it chopped Into bits snd I try It out
upon the stove. I us a gas burner, but
one could use an alcohol lamp. One of my
lupUs makes her's In her. bote.: room upon
an electric siove. I
The fat whet, tried out will be liquid,
ar.d In this condition I strain it. 1 now
add a drop of perfume. Altar of rose is
my preference, though one can use Ja
mine, geranium or any scent one pleases.
A drop of oil of geranium is very good.
"Now comes the beating up of the
cream, which takes patience. 1 tell m
pupils to begin with tablespoon cf the
liquid fat and to add half a teaspoon of
glycerine to It, beating It slowly and adding
the glycerine drop by drop. In a few
minutes ther will be a lovely white creat.i
which acts like msglc upon tired skin.
"There i those who cannot me gly
cerine upon the ccmplexlon. Instead there
can be used a little almond oil. Thia is
very healing and almost as whitening.
"We advise the automobile woman to
give her skin the chamois treatment, which
is new with this season. The skin is
warmed with hot towel ,.nd is then cov
ered with real cream. Cold cream mav be '
used if more convenient, or even ccoa
butter, or any good cleansing skin food.
This Is spread upep the face and while
moist It Is rubbed off with a prepared
chamois.
"To prepare a chamois for the rubbing
of th face take a strip about eight Inches
wide and eighteen Inches leng. Wet it
well with warm water. Wring it out, and
while it is still moist rub soap into it,
using th best of toilet soap. Rub tht
whole chanvol well with the soap until it
Is lathery. Then hang it up to dry. It
will be soft and fin and ready for use
upon the skin..
"Th way to polish th face with a
chamois skin closely resembles the process
of polishing the toe of one's boot. You
take the chamois by Its ends and you see
saw across th face, using as much fore 4
as possible.
"By this vigorous exercise you take cfl
the superfluous cuticle and you make the
skin fine, clean and soft. We have never
found anything to equal the luater given
by this dry polishing wKh th chamois
It does not irritate, yet it manages to
cleanse the skin.
Carrect Darslsg,
Always leave a small loop of the thread
at each end when darning a hole to allow
for th shrinking of the "mending cotton"
hen the stocking Is washed. Run the
darning cotton or yarn half an inch be
long th hole on each side, cover the hole
with threads thst ar run closely together
and not drawn too tight over the darning
ball, then cross the thread in th regu
lar darning style. Nq,w run the needle
short distant around the darn with th
mending cotton, and th stocking will not
draw and tear about tb mended hoi.
