Two-thirds OF chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centerS at
the base OF the brain, not from a derange-

treating these diseases IS that they treat the

over 20 years, and has made many important

AN EARNEST PROTEST.

Hon. David J. Brewer, associate
justice of the supreme court of the
United States, made good plea for a
strong judiciary before the New York
State Bar association, at Albany on Dec.
25lh. Judge Brewer is Kansas man,
and perhaps the condition of affairs in
this state suggests the topic. He takes
the following hopeful view:
THE black flag of Anarchism, faunt-
ing destruction to property and there
fore relapse of society to barbarism; tie
red flag of socialism, inviting redistri-
button of property, which, in order to
secure the Wanted equiiity must be
repeated again and again at constantly
decreasing intervals, and that colorlesS
piece of baby cloth, which suggests that
The state take all the property and direct
all the work and life of individuals as if
they were little children, may seem to
fill the air with their f1utter.
But, as against these schemes or any
other plot of vagary Of tiend, fool or
fanatic, the eager and earnest protest
and cry of the Anglo-Saxon is for iudi-
vidual freedom and absolute protection
of all his rights of person and property:
and it is the cry which, reverberating
over this country from ocean to ocean,
thank God, will not go unheeded."
