He gives the opinion that the Catholic fast days are responsible for the spread of leprosy and that wherever there is a risk of obtaining unsound fish the use of fish on fast days ought to be forbidden. Dr. Hutchinson quotes the census returns in support of his theory. Fbh Eating Causes Leprosy. "In the great growth of trade unionism the men seem to have lost sight of the fundamental principles which In the end must control. Men catch trade unionism, speculation, combination, as they catch the measles or mumps. Capital has caught the fever of combination until it lias gone mad over corporations and trusts. Likewise labor has caught the fever of trade unionism and, without knowing what it means or realizing how It may be of real service to the world, has turned its power and energy in the direction of building up organizations. Unless this force is turned to political power or turned to substantial methods for bettering Industrial conditions rather than gaining temporary or personal advantages, then ail this great' movement must be for naught." But these were not all. Six onlookers, gaping at the speeding machines, went into eternity. It was the most terrible series.of accidents in the history of auto racing in all France.

He gives the opinion that the Catholic fast days are responsible for the spread of leprosy and that wherever there is a risk of obtaining unsound fish the use of fish on fast days ought to be forbidden. Dr. Hutchinson quotes the census returns in support of his theory. Fbh Eating Causes Leprosy. "In the great growth of trade unionism the men seem to have lost sight of the fundamental principles which In the end must control. Men catch trade unionism, speculation, combination, as they catch the measles or mumps. Capital has caught the fever of combination until it lias gone mad over corporations and trusts. Likewise labor has caught the fever of trade unionism and, without knowing what it means or realizing how It may be of real service to the world, has turned its power and energy in the direction of building up organizations. Unless this force is turned to political power or turned to substantial methods for bettering Industrial conditions rather than gaining temporary or personal advantages, then ail this great' movement must be for naught." But these were not all. Six onlookers, gaping at the speeding machines, went into eternity. It was the most terrible series.of accidents in the history of auto racing in all France.
