Prolonging human life is a matter in which everyone is interested, and this week leaders of thought and ac- tion in modern sanitary science, from the entire world, will contribute their mmite in doing what is possibie, in ad- dresses, to this end. Naturally, every country has something of valué which the others coyld make excellent use of, and the suggestions of important reforms which can be made applicable to every country will be eagerly sought by the representatives in attendance at the fifteenth international congress on hygiene and demography this week at Washington. An unusual oppormmty is afforded for comparing American methods of protecting human life with those of older countries and the contribution of those countries where the average length of human life is considerably longer than in this country will be of much value. It will mean that many agencies will be put to work to utilize the henefit obtained from the congress. Everyone is desirous of Jess disease and longer life. Sanitation has done a great deal, but there remains plenty more to be done. There is nothing in . “we haye declared and we are the first . mational party that has voted for the | right of women to.vote throughout the _mation,” but how near he gets to the fact is shown by the Boston ord, when it calls atiention to the 'y by stating tha | “The 1872 platform of the prohibi- flonist party declared for . ‘suffrage without regard/to sex’; and the pro- party has made similar dec- in ita platforms since that party in 1884, ct its hp-d. declared regardless of t"th-nhnmm'm in 1588, i LLM“DUMHI':L:: for president, declared for ‘the h ‘made ' similar: declaration 190 Debl. u social demoeratic f (dency, stood for yit political rights for men and w ‘and the. abolition of all htn discriminating. against wo- men. which people should be more interest- ed than health, and there should be & generous co-operation in the re- forms which will bring about an im- provement.

The fact is that conditions in Nica- ragua had gotten to a point where, if this country had not:taken a hand, others would have. In maintaining a lookout over the republics to the south, which Uncle Sam does under the terms of the Monroe doctrine, it forestalls forelgn troops ‘being landed for the protection of their subjects, and re- ports show that in Nicaragua all for- eigners are in need of the protection ‘which the government has been unable to furnish.

Presently their feet crunched the grav- | el of the walk that ran areund the lit- tle park and they strolled on till they found a bench that was unoccupied. A lilac bush in bloom waved above them and the scent of freshly sprinkied grass was in their nostriis. The street sounds were blurred and far off. “Gee!” breathed young Borgus with a vast exhaling of breath signifying peace of mind at last. He laid one hand over Miss Clancy’s and she did not reprove him. Present- Iy he turned his head towards her, but the words on his lips died in thin air.; A pondervus footed person engulfed in an alcoholic aura swaved toward their bench and dropped massively on the other end and leered at them. “Bu'ful night?" he asked, appealingly. Young Borgus and Miss Clancy did not speak till they were a block away. Then they halted and young Borgus spoke. “See here,” he said, in the des- perate tones of a man at bay- “I was-| n't going to say anything Ul I got & boost in my pay, but I'm likely to blow up and remove a few people from the landscape if this goes on much| longer!
