they affect love for others and an In

they take a sort of savage delight in

do they act this way?"
Why? Because they are in love, and
love is a sort of sweet Insanity in
which its victims do such things and
say such things, that If the man were
to behave In a similar fashion in busi

life in a week, and if a girl were to
treat her friends as she treats hei
lover she would soon be hopelessly
friendless.
Love, like wine, goes to the head.
At a time when its victims should bo

Dr. Dixon Sends a Letter Outlining
What the Commonwealth Is
Doing For People
Kuch of tho 11.00U practicing phy
sicians throughout Pennsylvania to
day received a letter from State Com
missioner of Health Samuel G. Dixon,
calling their attention to the tree
treatment the State offers to ull indi
gent sufferers from tuberculosis and
requesting them to refer all poor per
sons Buttering from this disease to the
State dispensaries. The letter in part
was as follows:
"Dear Doctor:
"The Commonwealth of Pennsylva
nia is offering to its people, who aro
suffering from tuberculosis and who
have not sufficient means to secure
for themselves the Bpecial treatment
needed, greater opportunities than
were ever offered before In this coun
try. There have been provided three
(8) modern sanatoria, located "at
pluces convenient to every portion ofl
the State, where treatment is abao
lutely free. In addition, in order to
provide for those who for any reason
are not able to go away from home, j
there has been organized a system of
free dispensaries. Admission to the
State sanatoria can be secured by ap
plication at any of the dispensaries.
At both dispensaries and sanatoria pa
tients are accepted at all stages of tho
disease.
"Dispensaries. The dispensaries
now number 114. There is at least
one in each county, the number being
regulated by the population of the
district.
"All that is necessary to secure ad
mission to the dispensary is for the
applicant to present himself and satis
factorily answer the questions set forth
on the various blanks. The dispensa
ries do not accept for treatment any
person who is not tuberculous, or
whose circumstances are such that it
would be no hardship to pay for the
Bpecial attention demanded. Dispen
sary physicians are forbidden tof ac
cept as a private patient any one who
has been enrolled at a dispensary. The
home of each patient is visited by one
of the department's visiting nurses,
who carefully inquires into all tho cir
cumstances of the case —financial as
well as hygienic. Patients who are
found to be in need of extra food sup
plies are furnished by the dispensaries
with from one to two quarts of milk
a day.
"The marked changes frequently
seen in the manner of living of fami
lies of dispensary patients are a tri
bute to the success of the visiting
nurses work. The work is of im
portance not only for physical rea
sons, but because it improves the gen
eral sanitation of the community at
large. Much valuable co-operation
has been received from civic clubs and
other philanthropic societies.
"Dispensary physicians urge every
applicant to enter a State sanatorium.
We believe the sanatorium treatment
is far preferable to any treatment at
home. All admissions to the State
sanatoria are through the dispensaries
and any dispensary chief will be very
glad, indeed,' to furnish you what
ever information you may require, in
addition to that given above.
"The Commonwealth is most anx
ious to secure your most earnest co
operation in this great work of limit
ing tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is fatal j
to over 10,000 of our fellow Pennftyl-1
vunians every year and it has been es- j
timated that the economic cost to the
Commonwealth is in the neighborhood
of $00,000,000 annually. If you have
ia your vicinity, any poor persons suf
ierlng from tuberculosis, we shall bo
very glad if you will give them infor
mation which will lead to their avail
ing themselves of this great opportun
ity for treatment. It is not intended
as a charity, but as a measure of public
defense against a disease, which, by its
long chronic course, is peculiarly lia
ble to render its victim and his fam
ily financially unable to carry the bur
den imposed. Your co-operation in
referring patients to the State dispen
saries and santoria, and In persuading
them to remain under treatment a suf
ficiently long time to acquire real ben
efit therefrom, will materially improve
the prospects of a successful cam
paign.'

SOLDIER FIDDLERS
The Orftheum Theater, this week,
claims as one of its features an attrac
tion that is a rattling novelty and one
that is bound to create more talk about
the city than anything that lias ap
peared here in a long time. "The Old
Soldier Fiddlers" are just what their
name implies, a quartet of fiddlers who
served in the Civil War and who are
whitened with age. They tiddle indi
vidually, and collectively many of the
old-time Jigs and dances that bring
back memories of the early Blxties
when fiddling was fiddling and there
wasn't any such thing as a violin.
Three soldiers who fought with the
North and two who fought with the
South have laid away their arms and
taken up the old fiddle, traveling to
gether in one of the most emphatic
pictures of forgotten hatred that the
public has had since the war. The
patriotic air that hovers over their
work is far and away ahead of every
thing that has been presented behind
the footlights. It has the ring of real
patriotism and usually brings the au
dience to its feet. The mere sight of
these old warriors, whose ages range
from 70 to 80 years, is enough to in
spire an American audience, and when
they get the old fiddles to sending out
the old-time tunes the house goes wild
with enthusiasm. They appear in a
scene representing the Gettysburg bat-
