It pursues him into the bed chamber and the bed. It medéles {n courting affairs, even to the @xtent of causing thousands of crowditg, struggling microbes to perch on sweet woman's lips when she fe delivering up a delicious kiss ‘Those medical professors—men with the long kite tails of initials fly- tng after their names, who tel! us that each human throat conceals mil Nons of active germs, all struggling for a Itving; that our drinking water is populated with whole communities of hideous creatures sport- ing around in it; who assert that we eat, breathe and sleep with mt- robes zoo numerous to mention, may think that they know ft all and that human life In this old world has Jost all of its individuality by Merging with microscoplc beasts of the earth, air and sea, but they cannot prove quite all they say. It is a microbe craze, perchance, that will subside with advancing years. A little knowledge is always a dan- ferous thing, and the bit that we do know about microbes, no doubt ™makes us suspect a great many other things that we do not know. It has become the fashion nowadays in certain circles of learning to whisper, “Germs did it!" when a man expires from any one of a dos- en diseases. And perhaps they did. But just the same, let us have a few outside causes for human woe, suffering and death besides the much abused germs. The conception that a@ billion of microbes surround each one of us like a cloud of hungry mosquitoes and meddle into all of our affairs, destroye that fine idea of privacy which is so dear to every well balanced individual. Just now we are dodging smal!-pox germs with more or leas agility ‘We are even looking for them perched on the fences in front of houses with the yellow label, and because we cannot see them, we suspect their malign presencevall the more. It is decidiedty unpleasant to have so many germe loose fn the com- munity. Théonly Way that leads to peace of mind ts scepticism as to the universal existence and activity of microbes. Nobody feels them crowding. Let us therefore ignore their presence as far as we are able. WHY NOT MEET AT NOON ‘The Chamber of Commerce makes a great mistake tn holding Its weekly meetings on Wednesday afternoons. Owing to the late hour, neither the Times nor the Star can secure reports of the proceedings, which are of interest to the community, only the “P.-I." being benefited By the next afternoon the news edge of the proceedings has been par- tially worn off by the “P.-L.’s exhaustive publications, and neither of the afternoon papers, which have unquestionably a very large combined circulation, can afford to handle the matter in detail It is simply a question of whether or not the chamber prefers to use the “P.-I." as its mouthpiece, or would find it more advantageous to have two daily newspapers of general circulation printing its news The “P.-1." naturally enough opposes all suggestions looking towards & change in the meeting hour of the chamber, and will always use its utmost endeavors to preserve this news source. Gentlemen of the chamber, this i# a candid statement of facta. The Star in always candid. You can do better by changing that meeting hour to NOON, the customary hour for holding sessions of chambers of commerce and boards of trade in all METROPOLITAN cities. It was well enough, perhaps, for the Seattle chamber to meet at any time in the afternoon or evening when the community made no pretensions, but that time is past. Equally unwise is the suggestion that the chamber should change its Meeting hour to Saturday afternoons. The plea put forth that many houses close at noon Saturdays and that the representatives of th houses could attend the meetings in larger numbers, is born of fallacious belief. Saturday afternoons are the worst in the week to get busines men together. Many of them, expecially in the summer, leave the city by afternoon trains or boats to spend Sunda: Sting elsewhere. They would not attend. Just who would be benefited by such a change it is hard to BOON 4s the proper time. LAST MAN WILL TOAST in resting and recuper- HIS DEAD COMPANIONS : PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 23.— On the evening of February 15 ‘Walter W. Bell, the only sur- vivor of the Last Man Broth- erhood, will sit alone at the table in his dining room and will rise and drink, alone, a toast. There will be 32 vacant chairs, for the ta wet for 33 diners. The wine he will drink wa bottled 46 years ago by He and his 22 companions, who are now dead. He alone re maine and only the vacant chairs will stare back as the toast is proposed. After the ceremony, the compact entere into, 44 years ago, will be for- inally ended. For many years Bell was prominently known In Phila deiphia as a newspaper man. Later he took up the real es tate business, in which he has been successful. Since the brotherhod was founded, in 185 of its meetings. Once a year he has drunk and laughed a Jested with the slowly dwindling ranks of good comrades who once awor to become brothers to each other for life. Kach banquet has been woberer, sddder, than the last. And this year's banquet will be so #0 will be he has never miased o mn an occasion to the solitary diner that he will order no supper, but will confine himself to drinking to the msemories of hin dead friends When the brotherhood was formed, 23 bottles of prime Madet 1 laid away.
