FEAR OF GERMAN INVASION
TS>t'WOTnmted by BTum.heE.of Kalssrt
Subjects at Present Residing in
South America.
German migration to South
America, and especially to some
of the southern states of Brazil,
is periodically a cause of com
ment and concern to some who
think they see therein a sinister
scheme of imperial conquest.
For two or three strong reasons,
says the New York Tribune, such
fears seem to us to be not well
founded. One such reason is
that the number of Germans in
Brazil is not, after all, ominous
ly large. The total population of
Brazil, according to the census
of 1890, was 14,333,915. No later
census returns are available, bnt
careful estimates now place the
total at more than 17,000,000, of
which number less than 3,000,000
are Indians and negroes, leaving
certainly more than 14,000,000
whites. Of these, in 1901, only
2,700,000 were immigrants, and
of the latter number only 300,000
were Germans.
The latest and highest esti
mate of the number of Germans
in Brazil is only 450,000, or a lit
tle over three per cent, of the
whole. Really, we cannot regard
that as a dangerous percentage.
Nor does it represent the largest
foreign element, by any means.
Portuguese immigrants into Bra
zil are twice as numerous, and
Italians three times as numer
ous, as the Germans. Nor yet
are these Germans so massed in
certain states as to form a ma
jority of their population, as
some have imagined. Germans
are most numerous in Rio
Grande do Sul, where there are
200,000 of them, but the whole
population of the state is 900,000,
so that the Germans are less
than one-fourth. In Santa Catha
rina the Germans are 100,000 in a
total of 300,000, or one-third,
the largest proportion in any
state. In Parana they are 47,000
in 280,000, and in Sao Paulo 30,
000 in 1,430,000.
It is pointed out as ominous
that these Germans continue to
use their own language, to pub
lish newspapers in German and
to demand the official use of that
language in courts and schools.
Well, the same may be said of
Germans in New York, and in
Milwaukee, and in many other
parts of the United States.
The conquest which Germany
hopes for in Brazil is not polit
ical, but commercial. The profit
she looks for in this migration of
her subjects is to be found in in
creased commerce. In that Ger
many reckons shrewdly. Every
shipload of Germans landed in
Brazil creates a demand for
many shiploads of German man
ufactured goods. Every so-called
German colony in Brazil means
a market for German trade.
.Upon this feature of the case to«
much stress cannot easily be laid.
Provision* from Trees.
There is a tree which gro'ws in
Sumatra, Algeria and China which
is known as the vegetable tallow
tree. From its fruit lafge quanti
ties of oil and tallb'tv are extract
ed, and the fruit is gathered in
November or December, when all
the ieaves have fallen. Excellent
candles are made from the berries
of a tree which'grows in .some
parts of South Africa and the
Azores. At-Sie-rna Leone is found
the cream fruit tree, the fruit,of
which is ver,v> agreeable in taste.
In Ceylon there is the breadfruit
tree, front which a food is made in
the same way that we make bread.
Itissaidto be equally good and nu
tritious. In South America we
find the milk tree.—Philadelphia

(Curious lad <itat.
A man on Twenty-third street
furnished much amusement to a
number of people on a recent
windy afternoon by a predicament
he fell into, or rather that fell
onto him A large gunny sack
dropped from the roof of one of
the buildings, and, as it descend
ed, filled with air, coming down
with mouth wide open, like a bal
loon. It struck the unfortunate
man squarely over the head, cov
ering him completely down be
low the shoulders, and pinioning
his arms so that he had difficulty
in extricating himself. He strug
gled as if he thought he was being
kidnaped until he managed to get
i the sack off his head.—N. Y. Post
BARBERS’ SHOP DISEASES.

it' .f r
The transference to his cim
tomera, by means. of his hands and
insfrumeuts, of . many par&Mt'
ic akin diseases has longbeeii rec
ognized as one of the unnecessary
accomplishments of the necessary
barber. Among these affections,
•ays American Medicine, are
sycosis, impetigo, seborrheic alo
pecia and furunculosis that is
more or less chronic in type. Dr.
Graham Chambers states that
during the past five years impeti
go circinati has been very prev
alent in Toronto, scarcely a month
passing without an outbreak of
from two to thirty cases, gener
ally traceable to a commas
source. The barber shop is so com.
monly the source that he desigK
nates the disease as “barbers’ im
petigo.” Quite recently Dr. W
A. Hardaway has called attention
to a point which he believes, and
we think rightly, has been but lit
tle realized by the medical profes
sion. That is the frequency with
which carbuncles are acquired ia
barber shops. He has seen many
cases of carbuncle in which ths
evidence of this means of trans
mission was to him indisputable.
The relative importance of this se
rious affection as compared with
the other diseases mentioned
needs scarcely to be impressed.
For the prevention of contagioa
in barber shops, Hardaway be
lieves that we will be forced ft
rely upon an educated public
opinion rather than upon compul
sory laws directed against th«
barber. He recommends that
each patron of a barber shop pro
vide himself with a box, contain
ing his own brush and comb, a
small package of absorbent cot
ton and a five per cent, carbolic
acid solution. The barber will
then wipe his shears or clipper*
with the solution, and use the pa
tron’s comb and brush. For th«
man who shaves his own soap, cup
and brush are necessities. Thes#
suggestions are sensible. To car
ry them out properly means soma
inconvenience, but it is wortn
while, especially to the aged and
debilitated, or to those suffering
from diabetes or similar diathe
sis. Physicians atending such pa
tients should extend them a warn*

Sick
I Headache
"When your head aches, there
is a storm in,the nervous sys
tem, centering in the brain,
i . This irritation produces pain
1 in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stom
ach causes nausea, vomiting.
This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent and
prolonged attacks weaken the
' brain, resulting in loss of
memory, inflammation, epi
lepsy, fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritated,
aching condition by taking
I Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills.
They stop the pain by sooth
ing, strengthening and reliev
j ing the tension upon the nerves
—not by paralyzing them, as
do most headache remedies.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills do
not contain opium, morphine,
I chloral,cocaine or similar drugs.
“Sick headache Is hereditary in my
family. My father suffered a great
deal, and for many years I have had
spells that were so severe that I was
unable to attend to my business affairs
for a day or so at a time. During a
very severe attack of headache, I took
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills and they
relieved me almost immediately. Since
then I taka them when I •feel the spell
coming on and it stops it at once.' •
