HOW TO SELECT.
In the following substitute the word
dentist for the word doctor, and the ap
plication will be as good in the one case
as in the other-[ Ed. Register.
A contributor sends the following note
on the proper rules for choosing doctor
Not new and original. they are worth
pondering by every doctor and patient:
Avoid a mean man, for you may be
sure he will be a mean doctor, just as
certain as he would make a mean hus-
| band
Avoid dishonest man he will not be
honest with you as your physician.
| Shun the doctor that you can buy to
help you out of a scrape-a good doctor
can not be bought
Avoid the untidy, coarse blundering G
fellow, for the man who is clumsy in
hitching his horse you may be sure is not
handy at midwifery or surgery.
Avoid the doctor who fatters you and
humors your appetites.
Avoid the empty blow horn who blows
of his numerous cases and tells you of
seeing forty or fifty patients day, while
he spends two hours to convince you OF
the fact. Put him down as a fool.
To be a good doctor, one must first be
a man in the true sense of the word.
He should be a moral man, honest in
his dealings.
He must have good sense or he can not
be good doctor
He should be strictly temperate. No
one should trust his life in the hands OF
an intemperate doctor.
1t is good sign if he tells you how to
keep well.
1t is good sign if the members of his
own family respect him Detroit Ian

Senator DUNCAN mas lett on our table
copy of the following bill, introduced by
him into the Senate:
To amend an act entitled IAN act to
amend an act entitled an act for the
relief of the poor, and to repeal certain
acts therein named" passed April II
1876 60. L, IS, p. l4), and to repeal
certain acts therein named.
SECTION l. Be it enacted By tie General
assembly of the State of Ohio, That section
fourteen of the above recited act be
amended to read as follows
Sec. IA. Whenever any person in the
township shall be in condition requirin 6
public relief, complaint thereof may be
made forthwith to the township trustees
by some person having knowledge of the
fact, and if part of such relief be the
services of a physician or surgeon, then
the township trustees may furnish such
relief, and may employ a competent ply
sician or surgeon for such time and on
such terms as they choose, and the town
ship shall not be liable for any relief, or
the services of any physician or surgeon,
unless they have authorized the same,
except in cases of surgery or obstetrics,
where the services were required before
notice could be given to such trustees.
Sec. 2. Said section fourteen, and the
acts amendatory thereto, are hereby re-
pealed.
Sec. 8 This act shall take effect and be
in force on and after its passage.
That bill, or a similar one, ought to

tors. Push your bill, Col. DUNCAN. We
will stand by you.

Mr.. Neal, in writing to US on business,
goes on to say
| am much obliged to you for the con-
sideration you gave me on my vote on the
Chinese bill-you were right when you
said l was honest in it. l am not oppos
ed to the Chinese as such. but to all con-
tract laborers who come here without
families, simply to work cheap, take their
earnings and go home. l don't believe in
encouraging servitude in any form-nor
am in tavor of cheap labor. Any China
man who desires to come here with his
family, and make our country his future
home, to cease to be Chinese and be-
come an American, l will never object,
on the contrary he shall receive as hearty
welcome from me as any other foreign
er will coming as they do simply to
work. importing their foreign habits
without any intention of ever becoming
citizens, bringing with them no women,
but prostitutes, and being substantially
slaves to the companies who import them
does not seem to me to be that which
will add either to the prosperity or the
we'll being of the country. l may be
mistaken, if l am l trust l shall find il
out, and l am not too selfopinionated
to frankly acknowledge any mistake
may make. Yours truly,

There has been good deal of inquiry
why the name of J. B. Paine does not
appear in the vote upon the Local Option
bill, which was defeated in the House of
Representatives some two weeks ago.
The following, from the Columbus Com
monwealth, the prohibition paper of Co
lumbus, explains the matter:
Messrs Haley, Marsh, Meuser. Norton
and SAWYER, democrats, had their votes
recorded in the negative; and Mr.. Paine,
Republican, in the affirmative.
Messrs. Estill Quinn, Paine and Cros-
son. were absent when the vote was taken
investigating the Longview Asylum, and
Mr.. Guthrie, democrat, was at home sick
with typhoid fever.
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1879-04-10

The House of Representatives at Co.
lumbus, short time ago, appointed a
committee to investigate the manage
ment of the Longview Asylum for luna
tics under Democratic reorganization,
Judge Estill, of Holmes county promi-
nent Democrat, was compelled to say, in
his report
According to the testimony of several
eyewitnesses, a punishment frequently
and sometimes even gleefully resorted to
by attendants in this Asylum, is one
known as taking down" Taking down."
in the words of the testimony consists in
tripping or throwing the patient to the
floor, holding her down (for taking
down" is female punishment, the men
being usually knock DOWN. with the
knee on the chest, while another employe
gags the patient, and still another holds
the patients hands. The patient is held
down till she is quite weak and exhaust
ed, becomes purple in the face and the
breath almost gone.
And again he says:
When we remember that the people of
Ohio are schooled in liberality and char
ity; that our granaries are filled to over
flowing; that the purse strings of the
people are loosened to the call of benev-
olence; that the hand of charity is al
ways open to the deserving, and that the
Golfers of the State Treasury freely pour
out from their abundance whatever is
needed to relieve all the distressed and
afflicted within our borders, those who
read the sworn statements of the fifty
witnesses submitted with and made part
of the report l am now about to offer will
do so with heavy hearts and rise from
the perusal with burning indignation at
this recital of
"Man's inhumanity to man."
We were sent out to gather wheat, if
good seed had been cast upon the ground,
but if tares had been sown to return with
tares. We have filled our mission and
returned to you with our gleanings, and
submit them to your candid and careful
consideration in the report now offer.
What do the Christian people of Ohio
think of the treatment thus described by
Democrat-treatment of those most
unfortunate of all whom God in his wis
dom has permitted to be thus afflicted
Will the people elect another Democrat

Modern Socialism.

1t is not generally known that the late
John Stuart Mill, perhaps the ablest of
modern writers on political and social
science, commenced in the year 1869 a
book on Socialism, which, if it had been
recognized as the greatest OF his works
Manuscript chapters of the incomplete
work have recently been brought to
light, and are found so nearly complete
in themselves, and SO ably to discuss
questions now most prominent in the
public thought, that a London Review,
and also the Library Magazine of New
York are publishing them. They are
announced to appear in book form on
April 25th, published by the American
Book Exchange, New York. The price
postpaid, in cloth, will be so cents, or in
paper 25 cents. 1t is work which all
students of political and social topics,
and all enlightened citizens, will be glad
to read

of some M. E. Bishop as follows II have
been professor Of religion and N ember
of the church for over fifty years, and
have never committed a sin during that
time" Now | want the editor of the
Herald, as he is believer in that doc
trine, and l believe a professor of the
same, to harmonic that idea with the
following passages For in mauy things

Gen. Chalmers is a representative
Southern statesman. The Gen. has re-
Gently been slapping the American eagle
in the face with the dishonored rag of
the late Confederacy. The Gen. howls
defiance at the North. If the ten thou
sand colored men who were disfranchised
by force in the Gems District were COM
posed of the kind of stuff we have in the
North, the Gen. would now be abiding in
Mississippi, dreaming of the negro pris-

To the Editor of the Standard

TO Lhe EdltOT OF the Standard
Please allow space in your excellent
paper for the following: We understand
that our Public Schools were unncum-
bered from sectarianism, but to-day was
seen two classes, composed of children,
marched out of their rooms, down to the
M. E. Church, to attend a "Holiness
Meeting" now in progress at that place
The children thus marched, were not
sent by their parents to school for that
purpose, but to learn, as they could go to
church another day. This doing has
created feelings in many of our citizens
besides the writers of this.
Yours Truly, CITIZENS.
