Until recently, however, physicians have pooh-poohed\nthis idea, saying thai it had no basis\nofher than Hie fact that coughs and\ncolds, which affect the tubercular patient so adversely, are less frequent\nln summer.\nIn this ns In many other things \"\nnow turns out that popular belief was\nright and Dr. Science wrong. Recent\ninvestigations by Dr. Strangdanrd, an\nimminent Danish physician, show 'hut\nentirely apart from the fewer coughs\nand colds In warm weather the summer months are undoubtedly the mi'H\"\nfavorable to the consumptive.\nIn the Danish suult-irluma for the\ntreutment of tuuerculotjia it is thu\npractice for patients to be weighed\nevery Saturday morning. The average\nweekly gain,_lr* weight for 800 patients during a period of id years is\nfrom six to nine ounces.\nBut, as Dr. Strangaard points nut.\nthis guln varies greatly, according t-\nthe season of the year. Prom December to May It is fairly uniform but\nlow\u2014from six und one-half t0 seven\nand one-half ounces. It rises rapidly\nand stemlily from May until September and during lhe latter month ll\nreaches its maximum for the year ot\nll'\/i ounces. It falls from October to\nDecember, which is the month showing   tho  smallest   Increase   in   weight.\nThe average gain of weight In\nSeptember i;i almost double that In\nDecember and there can be little doubt\nthat this gain is, as a rule, accompanied by a marked improvement In\nthe  patient's   health. \u25a0\nIn one of the Danish sanitariums\nthe number of tubercular patients confined to their beds Is about twice as\ngreat in the winter as in the summer\nmonths. The proportion of patients\nwithout expectoration and bncilli is\ngreatest in August and September and\nlea-sit from January   to April,\nAll tbe observation-, of this Danish\nphysician tend to show that when\nthe weather is warm and sunny with\na high degree of hunUdlty in tlie air\nthe consumptive \".\"hows the greatest\ngain in weight and the greatest improvement   in   other   ways.\nBELLIGERENTS ASK UNITED\nSTATES DIPL0MAT8 TO ACT\n{By Dally News Leased Wire.,\nWASHINGTON, Aug. 2.\u2014As RUBsIa,\nAustria and Germany, three of the\ncountries already In a state of war,\nbad asked the United States to care\nfor their diplomatic interests, the\nAmerican embassies at St. Petersburg,\nBerlin and Vienna today were entrusted with new duties.

Hostilities lasted only about seven weeks,\nand when they came to an end the\nGreek chiefs were in n0 hurry to re\nturn to their wives. Homer was a\ngood sort and as he drew a large salary and a handsome allowance for\nexpenses from the \"Chronos,\" he readily accepted the scheme propounded by\nthe wise Ulysses\u2014to keep the war going in the columns of hip paper so\nlong as he could manage to write\n\u2022about It.

Unless the pipes through\nwhich It Is carried are thoroughly\ncleansed, there will still remain ser!\nous danger of typhoid and other water\nborne diseases.\nMains through which polluted water\nhas flowed become coated with de\nposits which must be wholly removed bofore they can be regarded as\nsafe carriers for pure water. Unless\nthe pipes are thoroughly cleansed by\nsome mechanical method, It will be\nyears before the danger of contamination resulting from tho previously foul\nwater supply will be entirely eliminated.\nThis fnct doubtless explains some\nof tho outbreaks of typhoid which\noccur even after filtration plants are\ninstalled. These outbreaks In most\ncases are probably not due to imperfect operation of the filters, but to the\nstirring up of old deposits In thc\nmains.\nA slight Increase In the rate of flow\nthrough water mains will Btnrt these\nold deposits and destroy the whole-\nsomeness of the most carefully filtered water.\nHEILMANN MAKES GREAT CATCH\nHarry Heilmann, the loose-Jointed,\nawkward looking youth who played\nfirst base for Portland last year, Is\nfilling In at centre field for Ty Cobb,\nand he robbed Jack Fournier of a long\nhit by a catch so remarkable that the\nveteran Qy Sanborn of the Chicago\nTribune mnde a paragraph about it.\nSaid   Sanborn:\n\"Nothing like Heilmnnn's catch of\nFournlcr's long wallop in the fifth\nInning 1ms been seen Blnce thc game\nwas started.

The existence of what we\ncall waste or refuse Is due merely\nto our failure to find a proper method\nof turning it into dollars and cents.\nAn Interesting example of this fact\nIs the recent discovery In Butte that\nthe water pumped from the copper\nmines can be turned to an exceedingly profitable use. The water, so\nheavily charged with mineral as to\nbe un drinkable, was formerly allowed to run down a gulch, which, according to the custom of mining\ncamps was the dumping place for old\nstoves, tin cans and all sorts of junk,\nOne day the owner of a part of this\ngulch picked up a can that had been\nIn the water for some time and was\nsurprised to find that it had turned\ninto copper, and of exceptional pur\nity at that. He secured a lot of the\nred metal this way, and later operated a crude plant, which brought him\nrich returns.

Ross, minister of lands,\nhas issued a pamphlet on the Cariboo\nland recording, division, which describes In detail the topographic, climatic and other features of the district. This pamphlet, -which will be\nof great value to those seeking information regarding th* territory within\ntho boundaries of the' Cariboo land\n-recording division, is the latest to he\npublished of the series of similar publications Issued by the department of\nlands on various other sections of the\nprovince. The pamphlets previously\npublished were descriptive of the\n-Fort George, Fort Fraser, Skeena and\nPep.ce river land recording: divisions.\nThere has bech a large demand for\nthese pamphlets, which are replete\nwith valuable information.\nCariboo, the district with which the\nbooklet deals, has been reached, since\nthe days when gold was the lddestone\nthat brought the argonauts, who were\npioneers of the division, from many\nlands by way of Panama, California\nhnd across tli0 then untraveled west-\ntorn provinces over the Cariboo wag-\nbn road. The Pacific Great Eastern\nrailroad Is now being constructed to\ncross tho division, north and south\nthrough the valley of the Fraser river.\nThis railroad, with many lateral and\ncross lateral roads, will give access\nto large areas of land available for\nsettlement.\n\u25a0 Much of the land in this division\n(is' open, rolling grass land and uplands covered with buhcb-graBS\u2014\nfctockmen find vast areas or pasturage\ntherc^\u2014and.there nro wide stretches\nof parli-like country with littlo clumps\nof popular and other light timber.\niMuch of tho district, In addition to\nthe great extent of excellent range it\n-offers, on which great herds of cattle\naro being pastured, will be found to\nbo adt'\/invbly adapted for dairying\nseed-grass production and the growing\nof general farm produce of all kinds,\nas well as cattle, horses, sheep and\nhog raising. Following upon the completion of tho Pacific Great Eastern\nRailway and resultant influx of settlers\nthe Cariboo division will doubtless\nship much farm produce to tho markets on the coast, whero the opening\nbf the Panama canal Is bound to draw\ntraffic and make an ever-lnreaalng\nmarket for farm produce.\n' There is much land In the Cariboo\ndivision pre-eminently adapted for\nfarming along mixed or dairy lines;\nalso for dry farming, a system of agriculture which will afford large returns to tho farmer. There nre various areas which are lacustrine, hut\nothers, especially on the high plateaux, are more or less arid and dry-\nfarming will offer the most profitable\ninethod of agrlculturo there. To demonstrate tlie method of dry farming\nund the possibilities it off-^s.'for.suc\ncessEut farming' on' ' the 'semi-arid\nlands of the dry belt, the minister of\nlands has established experimental\ndry farms, ono of which Is located at\n10.1*Mile House\u2014and the opportunities\noffered to tho dry farmer in this part\nof tho province are being demonstrated thore.\nTh**- office of tho government agent\nfor the division, to whom all applicant's tor pre-emptions within its boundaries must be made, is at Quesnel.\nNews of the War Told jn Sundae Extra Edition\nCOWES REGATTA ABANDONED\n(Bv  Daily  News  Leased Wire.)\nLONDON,' Aug. 3.\u2014It is announced\nthat the Cowes regatta lias been abandoned, at the request of King George.\nOARSMEN   ELECT.\n(By Dally News Leased Wire.)\nST.

By her course Germany has transformed what might\nhave been a minor struggle, one that\ncould have been adjusted hy diplomatic effort bad the government at\nBerlin been so Inclined, Into a contest\nof men and money which may change\nthe map of Europe.\nWhile the situation as ft stands,\nwith Servia, Russia and France lined\nup on one side and Germany and Aus*\ntrtk-Htihgary on the other, is so seri-\noils aB to be appalling, it unfortunately appears to be but the forerunner\nof a much more serious one, in which\nGreat Britain and practically all the\nrest of Europe may be engaged. Germany, not' content with precipitating\nthe war In which she is now engaged,\nhaa by her invasion of the duchy of\nLuxemburg Invited Great Britain to\njoin the conflict as an opponent in addition to France and Russia. -No other view can be taken of Germany's\ncourse in tbls.matter, for when her\ntroops were ordered to cross the Ger*\nman border Into Luxemburg she knew\nthat Great Britain had guaranteed the\nneutrality of that duchy, as well as of\nHolland and Belgium, in case of war,\nand that any breach of that neutrality,\nIf Great Britain's undertaking 1s good\nfor anything\u2014and who will say it is\nhot-*-could mean only one thing, so\nfar as the guarantor was concerned,\na resort to arms.\nTo those of a more ardent temperament It may seem strange that Croat\nBritain has not already taken up tin\ngauntlet so cavalierly thrown down\nby Germany. Downing street Is tak\ntng Its time to deliberate, possibly\neither still hopeful that a general war\nmay be averted or because there has\nns yet been no formal declaration of\nwar. between Germany and France.\nTo suggest that Great Britain should\nshirk her obligations to Fiance In this\nmatter, if the war proceeds, Ib un*\nthinkable. It can be taken for granted that'Great Britain has In some\nmanner taken formal notice of Germany's, invitation to fight. With the\nstrict censorship which is being maintained it is not surprising, however,\nth'atthe manner in which this has\nbeen done has not become public.\n'-\u25a0\u25a0Following, premier Asqulth's state*\nment in the house of commons prom*\nIsed tor today this and other matters\nmay be known to tbe world. In tbe\nmeantime there can only be speculation concerning the Luxomburg matter and concerning Great Britain's policy generally,' At the same time it\ncan -he said that it will surprise a very\nlarge section of the civilized world If\nGreat Britain is not within perhaps a\nfew hours, perhaps a day or perhaps\na few days a participant In the titanic\nstruggle which Germany has bo deliberately precipitated.\nCANADA WILL DO HER PART.\nThere will be general agreement\nthroughout Canada with the action of\nthe Dominion government in offering\nGreat Britain 20,000 troops should she\nbe drawn into the present European\nwar. The official reply of the Old\nCountry government practically means\nacceptance If British participation becomes a fact. It is likely that the\nassistance of the overseas dominions,\nIn tbe event of actual trouble, will be\nof very material aid to the empire.\nSo far as the raising of 20,000 troops\nIb concerned this will be an easy thing\nto do in Canada. Not only will that\nnumber bQ found ready to volunteer,\nif asked, but several times that number of men will be as easily raised.\nCanada will do ber part.\nS> WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING\nUnfair\nThc London police probably have\nbeen strangers to astonishment for at\nleast a year.

Thoy aro probaibly\nfrom Mexican or West Indian waters.\nIt Is surmised that the object of\ntheir presence so near Sydney harbor\nis to secure coal for a transatlantic\nvoyage or that they have been do*\n-j* tailed to watch this port and the entrance to the St. Lawrence.\nA statement to this effect was made\nthis evening by Capt.

As I write all kinds\nof vehicles are dashing along laden\nwith luggage The heat is desperate\nand people want to lbo off to. fresh\nscenes and pastures newJ It has beon\ntha \"worst matrimonial season on record.' Mothers and daughters aro going away with the miserable sense of\nfailure. I never romemiber so many\ndances, mostly hoy and girl affairs,\nfop which the Invitations were issued\nIn the names of sons and daughters,\nthe parents this summer being put\nquite on the shelf. \"No, mother, I\nreally cannot have you at my dance,\"\nmany a girl has told her mater firmly,\nyour presonco would mean that no\nend of 'old' people would have to bo\ninvited.\" Suppers for such affairs\nwere sumptuously done, for the \"nut\"\n\u25a0will have things properly presented\nand his champagne of the choicest\n'brand. After theso functions many a\nmother haa invited her friends next\nday to luncheon to eat up the debris,\nThe cinema has been a feature of the\nseason. When people wonted a rest\ntlhey went and looked at pictures -because It required no mental strain. X\nthink It was the \"Portugals\" who made\nthe picture palace so popular In the\nhest set. It is no uncommon thing to\nsee Manuel and his \" consort sitting\nside by side, his hand In hers, just like\na pair of trippers. Oh, the appalling\nuntruths that have been told about\nthese two, who are just like a pair of\nturtle doves. He haa got very rotund\nof late, a fact which is awfully distressing to 'his mothor. Queen Amclle,\nwho Is proscribing for hlm as sho did\nfor hla father, wihom he Is \u25a0becoming,\nmore and more like overy day. Man\nuol gets tho medicine made up at my\nchemist's, but the story goes lie puts\nthe prescribed doso throe times a day\nInto the waste paper basket.\nIt afforded a delightful domestic picture to see the richest American peeress in London, Lady Granard, making\npaper boats on a lake in St. James'\nPark tho other morning to amuse her\nlittlo girls. Sho took a letter out of\nher hag and Just as cleverly as Shelley,\nthe poet, might have done it, sho fashioned lt into woe 'boats and sent them\ndown etroam, much to the delight of\nthe youngsters, ibonhy little girls,\nshowing already abnormal intelligence.\nThere seomed to be h6 nurses with\nthem and for once tho wife of the\nMaster of the Horse was dressed as\nsimply as could *be In white linen and\nono of the now white 'muslin hats.\nStrand Becomes Fashionable\nSince Lord Lytton 'took his new\nhouse in Buckingham 'street, off the\nStrand, one or two interesting society\nwomen, notably Lady Maidstone, want\n| abodes in tho samo quarter.- it ls a\nwise man who can foretell which district of London ls going to be the fashion next and certainly the airless\nStrand is the very last epot one would\nhave dreamed any individual who\nloves health and oxygon would havo\nselected. Of course It is the literary\nassociations that hang about this part\nthat appeals both to Lord Lytton and\nalso to Lady Maldstono. Bernard\nShaw lives in Adclphie terrace, Anthony Hopo Hawkins also has a den\nthere and so has Sir James Barrie.\nSomo of her Intimates say that Lady\nMaidstone 'is aibout to publish a volume\nof sonnets which are said to he exceptionally original and pathetic. She\nis awfully fond of the artistic set, especially the literary, and many a budding genius Is discovered at her\nparties.\nLady Diana Manners said for several\ndays after tho famous social cnta-\nstropho on the Thames whon Sir Denis\nAnson was drowned that the world was\nno place for her and that she must de\nsort it for an Anglican nunnery. Somo\npeoplo believed she meant it and,\nstrange as it may appear, she really\ndld. However, eho is .better, and only\nmentions now that wild horses will not\ndrag her near the Thames as long as\nhor name Is Diana,\nSir Ernest Cassel Lonely\nAt a party tho other night sho was\nfor a long timo talking to Sir Ernest\nCassol, apparently telling him all about\nthe disaster. Poor Sir Ernest rarely\ngoes to parties In theso 'days. He pre\nfers to stay with his canaries at Brook\nHouse. It Is pathetic to sec his great\nPark Lane residence looking so do*\nsorted. HQ has aged In appcurance a\ngood deal since the death of his\ndaughter and though his friends keep\non telling him to remarry those who\nknow hlm best say he never will, He\nsaid to a friend lately that ho considered Miss Page, the American ambassador's daughter, one of tho mosl\nInteresting girls he had ever met, liei\nconversation was so nmusing,\nI hear tho present government hat\napproached Andrew Carnegie, indirectly, with a view to presenting him with\na peerage\u2014on tho usual terms, ol\ncourse\u2014tout ho sent the lady\u2014I would\nnot for the world give her away\u2014right\nabout face, saying, unless he were\nworthy of the honor for honor's sake\nno power would Induce him to pay i-\nbrass farthing for it, \"Andrew Carnegie\" was titlo enough for him, he\nadded.\nOf all the functions that the Cana*\n(linn agents-general and their wives at\npresent In England have attended, the\nreception given in their honor by the\nEarl of Dysart at his beautiful and\nhistoric mansion, Ham House, near\nRichmond, was voted the most enjoy\natole.\nSituated on one of the most charming reaches of tho Thames, and surrounded by fields and avenues of \"trees,\nthe house Is within ten miles ot London, and most of the guests motored\ndown from town in less than an hour.\nHam House Is one of the private palaces of England and is crammed with\nancient furniture, exquisite tapestries,\nornaments, silver, pictures, etc., which\nthe visitors were much Interested In\ninspecting, the whole houso 'being\nthrown open to them. It Is said to\nhave ipeen one of the houses in which\nKing Charles 11. took refuge after his\nflight from London and the Cabal cab-\nHlnj-M.-in-'t Aie*t in one of its rooms.\n1   Since the present earl came Into the\nproperty the whole place has been\nput in order and properly maintained,\nbut had any of the Visitors seen Ham\nHouse say 40 years ago he would have\nbeen considerably surprised. The\nearl's father was a man of very free\npurse, and when he died the inheritance was in a most impoverished condition. The estate was placed In the\nhands of trustees, and onc of them, the\nearl's uncle, Algernon Tollemache,\nworked energetically to conservo tho\nrevenue and -bring to the estate some\nof Us former splendor. He certainly\nallowed no money to be wasted at Ham\nHouse during his tenancy. Crops of\nhay were taken off tho fine lawns\nevery year and most of the house was\nclosed,\nHis was a careful stewardship and\nresulted In the family fortune being\nin a flourishing state whon the present earl succeeded to thc title.\nMany Notables There\nThe many Canadians present wero\nfull of admiration of the many objects\nof interest which the earl so courteously pointed out to them. Over 1,000\nguests were invited, including many'\nnotabilities on this side. Eanl Grey,\nlooking very bronzed and fit after his\ntrip to South Africa and Canada; Hon.\nG. H.

Is\n\u25a0nirce of danger to anyone in close\nIdmity to the wearer of the pin.\n\u25a0bnbly no one sees the more serious\nItequcnce so frequently as the eye\nT'ilallst.   Sam-etimos the Injury con\nsists of a mere scratch, which heats\nreadily and -leaves no permanent defect. On the other, hand every now\nand then the scratch becomes Infected, anti serious Impairment of sight,\nif not actual loss of the eye, results.\nOne ~wh'o has seen ' these bad results is for ever alarmed for himself\nand others when he sees a protruding\nhat pin point In u crowded car or\ntheatro lobby, or wherever people are\nclosely crowded together. It ought\nnot to be necessary to pass laws to\nprevent such accidents, but as the\nnumber of such cases does not decrease It would seem t0 be desirable\nto make the warning of shorter hatpins obligatory.\nThere are devices on the market\nfor covering and protecting the end\nof a hat-pin which are effective and\ninexpensive. Any Jeweler can shorten\na, long hat-pin in a few minutes and\nat a. cost of a few cents, thereby, perhaps, save a fellow being's eye.\nA GREAT NOVELIST'S\nDECLARATION  OF  LOVE\nApril 26, 1819, was the first of days\nfor Victor Hugo, the great French\nnovelist.

Have you \u2022 not one Beeret\ngreater than all?\" Victor acknowledged that he had secrets and that\none of them was greater than all the\nrest.\n\"Just like me,\" cried Adele. \"Well,\ncome now, tell me your greatest\nBeeret and I will tell you mine.\"\n\"My ^rreat secret,\" Victor replied,\n\"Is that I love you.\"\n\"And my great secret ls that I love\nyou,\" said Adele like an echo.\nWit- '\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0'   : \u2022\u25a0\nTHE NEAL INSTITUTE\nCranbrook British Columbia\nMany a\nWife\nsits alone until morning\nwaiting for the husband\nthat ls spending the time\nand money thnt belongs to\nher for drink.\nBRITAIN'S PART\nNOT YET KNOWN\n(Continuea \u00abrom nw on*.)\nftizens' Co-operative Association, Limited\nIncorporated May 3rd, 1910, under \"Co-operative Associations Act\"\n\"MINO YOUR OWN BUSINESS\"\n\u25a0The following balance sheet demonstrates the benefits derived by the\nJ'plo who lived up to the motto, \"Mind Your Own Business,\" and traded\n\u25a0their own store.
