The Yankee farmer “going - to town to get dtuiiik, and Lord how . I dread it’’ V.ns no more foclish than a country that foresees indus trial civil war, surely coming, and does nothing to prevent it The people own the coal fields— and everything else in the nation- under the right of eminent domain, they can do as they choose. They suffer the loss and incon venience of all strikes, pay the bills in the end, and still they “go to t<lwn to get drunk.” The United States Post Office definitely forbids Betiding , the “Decameron,” by Boccaccio, through the mails. That is another wise decision which should not haVe been postponed so long. Mailing or selling that book should carry with it a sentence to prison. Standard Oil in the last three months has paid dividends of more than $55,000,000. That’s at the rate of more than five per cent on fo&r billion dollars; so there is a four billion dollar concern right there. ‘ ■ ^ If you wait a few years it will be a ten billion dollar concern.

Monsieur Laphin sa>s a table- spoonful of germinating wheat, eaten before luncheon, supplies vitamins lacking in other food, especially the vitamin B that stim .late* nervous energy. Roman soldiers, os they marched toward Bans under Caesar, ate raw wheat slung in a bag at. the belt, not bothering to soften it by germinating in water. Their skull*, dug up now, show marvellously strong tetth, ground down, but not one missing or decayed. Good bread, if you chew it well, is'tiettor for you, however. J'-lUrs.

Two people are concerned here: the physician ami the patient. Our folks are becoming educated—and very properly—in many .of the up- to-date methods in treating dis ease. Injecting potent metiication directly into the veins of the patient is a distinct advance in method, and it has been practiced all over the land, in &mie cases with al most miraculous results, and in many with disaster following. - I have never given an intraven ous injection that my heart didn’t come up in my throat a bit—with out that apprehension that will creep over the mentality of the careful doctor; then when one of my most esteemed specialist - friends told me a short time ago, that all -intravenous injections were danger-r ous, and that he had practically ceased to give them, my apprehen sion grew; we can inject medicines into the muscles, and beneath the skin with much lcf:r- concern as to safety. I shall never pem.it an intraven ous injection for ary.patient with chronic valvular disease of the heart. ,A few autopsies have con verted me in this particular. Coun try physicians have not all the fa cilities for testing the coagulability of the blood, hence'they are com pelled to rely upon the statement of the manufacturer that the big ampule is incapable of doing harm. If the patient has a good heart, the intravenous “shot'L is a life- saver in some forms of pneumonia- 'In arthritis, especially in the chonic forms, the chances are at lea-t fifty-fifty that, no "e^d. and ItiJssible harm may result. We Have Httl- to our credit. '1 we sum up results carefully, in the treatment of chronic venereal diseases bythi- method, no matter what the agent used. In abort, to rush ipto a measure like that, without due de liberation. is to put the spectacular ahead of good judgment.

Less gambling money will, f»o to Miami and other gambling points, but in the long run the State will be better off. It will attract fewer blacklegs, thieves and other undesirables. Hubert T.
