Where the Fire is Out.
Magic No More a Mystery-Seen From
Across the World.


Across the World.
"Haroun of Aleppo," said Sir Philip Dervsl, "had
mastered every secret in nature which the nobler
magic seeks to fahom. He discovered that the true
art of healing is to assist Nature to throw off the die
ease-to summon, as it were, the whole system to
eject the enemy that has fastened on part. His
all included the reinvigoration of the prin-
ciple of life
In this the Eastern sage merely anticipated the
practice of the best physicians of to-day. What life
itself is, nobody knew then-pobody knows now.
But we have learned something OF the reasons why
the mysterious tide rises and falls. Provided the
great organs of the body not rreparaby Destroy
ed, medical science can always relieve, and often
save. Yet no reputable physician now adheres to
barbarous and stupid process of depletion, such as
bleeding, by which it attempted to cure disease
by reducing the patients ability to resist it, Nowa-
days we do not tear down the fort to help the garri
son-we strengthen it.
In this intelligent and benefcent work, 1t is con-
ceded that PARKER's TONIC leads all other med-
cines. AS an nvigorant 1t acts Immediately and
powerfully upon the circulation and the organs of
Digestion thus giving Nature the assistance she calls
for. 1t follows that all ailments of the stomach,
kidneys and liver are at once relieved or cured. No
other preparation embodies tho same qualities or
produces similar results. II is delicious to use, and

Our article of last week. in which we
said that no one pretends to accuse Mr..
Spreckels Of dishonesty, and that webe-
ieve him to be 4 man of unassailable in
tegrity. who takes pride in doing what he
agrees TO do. and not infrequently in doing
more. is regarded by one of our contem-
poraries as inconsistent with his control
ling the present Cabinet, or with his at
tempts to exercise a baleful monopoly in
fiuence over this country.
We think that what is termed business
honesty is unfortunately too consistent
with course which is opposed to public
interests, or to dealing with Objectionable
persons for selfish ends. Such course
is not that which high, correct sense
of honor dictates; but this is not what the
world calls swindling or thieving.
We believe in attacking that which is
not defensible. and not in being led of
by false scent. 1t is not our purpose to
fill our columns with charges against
Spreckels' honesty, for we have no reason
TO believe in the truth of such charges:
but what we desire to criticise and con
denim, is brutal defiance of the opinions
of the best men In this country, an attempt
to monopolize and control the business of
the country. and the willingness to use
for selfish ends a Cabinet in which the
country has no confidence.
This is enough; we do not care to waste
time on preposterous charges. in fact we
draw the line at highway robbery or com
mol swindling. leaving such penal offences
to be dealt with by the law of the land.
