Disease.
Diseases are not isolated affections
of the single organs or groups' of or-
gans in whkh they manifest them-
selves -mumps, of the salivary glands;
typhoid, of the bowels; consumption,
of the lungs nephritis of the kidneys'
eczema, of the skin, and so on -but are
a failure *of the body as a whole to
carry on its functions, and the particu-
lar organs in which the symptoms ap-
pear are nserely groups of cells that for
specific reasons show the defect.
In the New York Medical Journal
Dr. Smith Ely Jelliffe, the famous spe-
eialist in nervous and naental diseases,
says this conception 02 disease is as
old as Hippocrates, but is "too fre-
quently overlooked in an era of absorb-
ing specia" listic investigation."

T e bursthig or the tank is due to a
preasare end riot to an expIottion
Itch es is prodtaleil in an engine. But
the most unreasoning' fear conies from
the Idea of Setting tire to a tank at the
filler opening, Most people in imagine -
den see the tank torn to pieces and the
experimenter blown high in the air.
Nothing of the sort happens. The va-
por takes fire at the surface and burns
quietly without any demonstration of
any kintl. This is only true, however,
in ease tbe tank has been tilled several
!lours. A. tank just emptied of gasa,
line or one freshly filled will give as
good an, explosion as one could Nvisla
To see why a full tank does not ex-
plode pour a few ounces of gasoline
into a preserve jar. Shake it up inad set
lire to the vapor at the top. No explo-
sion takes place because gasoline vapor
Is not explosive except Nvhen mixed
with air in the right proportions.
Probably the greatest danger from
gasoline comes from the fact that the
raper is very heavy and colorless.
Since it cannot be seen there is little
hulieation of Its presence. It may ac-
cumulate at the bottom of n closed
room or on the floor of a garage until
some one drops a lighted match and
sets fire to it. When allowed to seep-
. .
mutate In this manner its explosive
power is tremendous I have seen the
wall of a brick building blown out as
the result of an accumulation of gaso-
line vapor in the cellar. A lighted
match caused the trouble.
It is evident, then, that care must
be taken to avoid such accumulation.
Keep the premises ventilated so that
the vapor will be dissipater] as fast as
it is formed. Do not spill gasoline,
being especially careful while filling
tanks. -New York World.

A Matter of Change.
"What a change a woman can make,

PROGRESS DURING WAR.
Afilitarism Has Suffered Blow in
Conflict.
PARIS, July 3 1. -Militarism, the
great enemy of progress, actually
has been mortally wounded by war
itself. This summarizes the progress
of the last three years according to
Paul Painleve, the Minister of War,
in reviewing the war to date. Min-
ister PainleVe's sunamary follows:
"Three years of war. Imagination
at ant conjures up mourning and
deraonstration. However, we dare to
*ay that humanity has progressed
during these three years. The great
enemy of all progress, Militarism,
actually has been wounded mortally
by war itself. The ideal of the na-
tions of peace expresses itself very
precisely against the brutality of na-
tions of conquest and gains little by
little throughout the entire a-orld.
Despite the vicissitudes this ideal
will triumph.
"While the curve of German force
has sunk, the curve of the strength
of the Allies has risen year by year,
and tthe entra.nee of the United
States into the war has given it a
sudden and formidable impetus, Ger-
naany's fate is determined.
"Henceforth, Prance, particularly,
can show with elation its balance of
the last three years. Bleeding, still
invaded, she is not only greater and
more glorious, but she is stronger
militarily and politically than on
August 2, 1914. If Germany, strip-
ped of its hagamony, rained in, its
commerae, and reduced to an alliance
with several groups of adventurers,
to -day compares itself to France"
will Show. what, J,thatee years 0.
have c_ost it."

KING VISITS AMERICANS.
'reaps in llrigland Were
by lila Majesty.
LONDON, July 3 1, ---King George
companied by Queen Alary ane
Princeas Maud, Saturday went to
motor to the Borden Camp and Jai
spected the American troops quar-
tered at the out -lying camps. D's
aiajesty was delighted -witb the sol-
diery appearance of the men. A
court circular issued Saturday night
from the royal pavilion at Aldershot
says;
"The King, accompanied by the
Queen, Princess Mary, and Fiela
Marshal the Duke of Connaught
drove to the Araerican camp at Bor-
den Sunday morning and inspecteil
the regiment of engineers of tile
United States army under commane
of Colonel Charles R. Mclairistty.."
The King's visit to the Americia,
troops was made the occasion of an
interesting ceremony. The Britisa
officers in comniaad of the distries
met the King's party and presentee
the American officers. The America:.
engineers -were under arms and 'weri,
drawn- up on three sides of a square.
After introductions the Xing brietle
a.ddressed the men, welcoming then,
to England. 'The Americans the:.
marched past carrying the Stars and
Stripes and their regimental flag, the
King saluting as they passed.

WITH THE ERMS11 ARMIES
IN PRANCE, July 3 1.--NUmerous
raids, which Sunday's British official
communication mentions as having
been carried out at various points
along the front by both combatants,
undoubtedly appear to distant reads
ers as inconsequential in this great-
est of world's Wars. But these tiny
reconnoitering thrusts, which daily
have 'been growing in number ot
late, are, in truth, highly significael
in themselves, for they are a surface
indication of the great tension exist-
ing along these nerve centres of the
western theatre.
The material damage which small
raiding pa ties inflict is of little con-
sequence, comparatively speaking, to
either side,' but the information that
these intrepid adventurers into No
Man's Land may bring back is inval-
uable. The war along this front is
far from being a stalemate, but these
are not days for propbecy.
Despite the inactivity of the in-
fantry, destructive artillery duels of
great violence continue, and are ever
increasing in volume. Along the
coast region the guns have been
pouring an unprecedented stream cf
shells into Nieuport and neighboring
places, and the 13ritish have been no
less vigorous in reply.
