"Theodore Rex" Promises to Shield

i
The political tentacles of the third
jl term candidate have been extended In
... cry direction from which might be
gathered voters Irrespective of sex,
race, color or previous condition, of all |
vocation8, factions and trades Into the
progressive told. By speciou* wium- |
leee cunningly adapted to each the
colonel beckons them to follow with
Ideating approval wheresoever his bellwether
adjutants may lead In order
that Theodore Rex may again sit tn
the White House.
Tempting bait Is thrown to the working
people in the mlmlmum wage, to
the Socialists In the enlargement of
government ownership, to the women
in the furtherance of suffrage aspirations,
to the farmer tn blissful betterment
o( rural life, etc. Now be apI
peals to the quacks, those true and
hitherto despised men of predatory
wealth, offering them tenderest regard
and freedom from prejudice Tor or

"We favor the onion of all the exist- j
nig agencies for fundamental government
dealing with the public health
Into a single national health service
without discrimination against or tor
any one set of therapeutlo methods,

with such additional powers as may

efficiently such duties In the protection
of the public from preventable diseases
as may be properly undertaken
by the fundamental authorities, In*
eluding the execution of existing laws
, regarding pure food, quarantine and
cognate subjects, the promotion of appropriate
action for the improvement
h of vital statistics, the extension of the
I registration area of such statistics and
cooperation with the health activities
of the various states and cities of the
nation."
Thus would votes for Theodore Rex
be multiplied.
insults Educated Physician.
This quack plank of the Progressive
. platform not only insults the Intelligent
voter, but wounds the educated
physician, in that tt places the latter
In the same category with empirics of
high and low degree, rubbers, sun
curists, magnetic and other healers and
all 'other pretenders who fatten upon
the credulity of the helpless sick and
their terrified relatives. The Bun has
adverted to the outrageous violation1
of propriety and Justice which charac-:
terlres the medical laws of several
a tat e s in the Union, the last Instance of
which we deplore In the medical regulations
of the canal zone and which
the bull moose platform threatens to
Inflict upon all the states of the Union.
These legislative enactments require
all persons who propose to become j
physicians not only to pursue a more or j
lesr. thorough course of preparatory I
education, but also t-> be trained In all'
nr nnH fn !
be subject to a rigid examination by '
Appointees of the state. All these serve
to protect the public against Ignorant
pretenders and would te perfectly fair
did not the very same enactments exempt
the latter from the provisions applying
to educated practitioners.
jFavors for Cormorants.
I '; Thus do our sagacious legislators j
jetoltlfy themselves in the Interest of i
the cormorants to whom they grant;
ppeclal privileges, because, forsooth, J
they claim to "heal" without medl-,
cines! There Is now no discrimination i
against "schools of medlclna" There-;
fore the special protection demanded !
* for them by the bull moose platform is
S gratuitous and Intended only to entrap
r votes. The "healers" belong to no i
school. Now comes rneoaore Kex ana ,
dignifies them by a special provision \
and, expressing a most tender regard
for their sensibilities, promises to j
jhleld them against discrimination by
educated physicians.
This platform would raise the quack :
and healer above the men who dally j
exemplify theiT personal and profes- '
? alonal superiority by some unselfish J
J / devotion to the public weaL In his
|w eagerness to placate the Influential j
Z? hord of empirics Mr. Roosevelt would
have us oblivious of the fact that the
j] educated physician Is the only real
J altruist In the community. Instead of !
arousing the public conscience (T. R.'s j
L favorite slogan) this self appointed re*
former deepens the crying shame and j
thus exemplifies again that "under no '
'""nos" npnil hp hp hound hv

his prior professions.
President Tafthas won the t.pproval ,
of the quacks and healers by his medical
regulations of the canal zone; j
bence this Machiavellian policy. Fu- 1
tura generations will substitute "Roos- !
ereltlan" for "Machiavellian." Politics |
tnake strange bedfellows indeed. Be- j
bold Taft and Roosevelt under the !

THE POOL OF FLAME
Continued from Third Rage
CHAPTER XXXV.
In after days, when he was altogether
well and whole, they journeyed
forth, these two, the man and his
wife, from Rangoon northward. The
railway carried them some distance;
later they struck off with their train
Into the primitive wilderness beyond
the ultimate British outposts on the
Chindwine, main tributary trf the lrrawad<fy.
The land was peaceful, hospitable,
ad very, very lovefy In Its wilderness.
Tbeir happiness was ecstasy.
By day they rode through Jungle,
wood and rolling uplands, or less easi
ly through the fastnesses of the hills,
side by side, thought linked to
thought, their hearts attuned. By
night thelr camps were pitched in a
new-found world of beauty, wonderful
In its 6hadowy mystery.
It was so ordered that they came.
toward sundown of a oertaln day, to
the foot of a hill crowned with a great
pagoda of many multiplied roofs frlng- j
ed with a myriad silver bells that j
tinkled ceaselessly in the evening;
airs.
Here they dismounted and together |
made the ascent of an age-old wooden |
stairway, broad and easy, and thronged
from the flrst^ rise to the last with'
weary pilgrims, beggars, lepers, laugh j
ing children, mendicant holy men. The
sun was low upon the horizon when,
having bribed their way along that
gauntlet, O'Rourke and his bride (she
could never be aught less to him) attained
to the topmost platform and,
having received cermisslon, with meet
show of reverence entered the temple.
It was very dark Inside and for a
time they moved blindly in and out:
but at length they came to a massive
doorway looking toward the West, and
here they paused, hand In hand, looking
nn to the Dlacld face of a huge
Buddha, who squatting cross-legged
upon a pedestal, looked through the
Incense-scented gloom ceaselessly forward
to Nirvana.
The figure, carven originally from
stone, had been 60 heavily plastered
with gold-leaves by the devout, that
now It had all the semblance of being
gold to Its core; and, lavishly decorated
with necklaces and bracelets of
rare jewels set in crusted gold, In the
evening glow It shone like some great i
iamp of holiness. Only its face was j
In shadow.
Slowly the light struck higher beneath
the eaves of the pagoda, and
slowly It crept up and yet up, until Its
last blood-red shaft revealed the Buddha's
forehead and what was set
- * * -
therein, a monstrous ruoy.
The woman gasped faintly and
clung tightly to her husland's arm. j
He held her close, watching the great |
stone flame and throb and pulse, like
a pool of living flame swimming in
darkness.
And then the light of the world !
went out.
Pensively in the dusk they descend- ;
ed the temple staircase. At the foot,
before they remounted their horses,
the woman came to the man and put
her hands upon hL- shoulders.
"Terence," she said, "I think I am
very weary. Take me home."
He gathered her into his arms.
"I think." she said, "it frightened
m&? mad."> ine fearful of this country
?the Pcol of Flame, up there."
"Ye'vc seen the- last of it." he said
tenderly, "and so have I. 'Tis done
with, like the (1?/? <-.r me auventurLcgs.
I have no -bought but you, dear
heart. L;t ur go o:v>e."
THE END.
Sick headache is caused by a disordered
stomach. Take Chamberlain's
Tablets and correct that and
the headaches will disappear. For
