THE FAMILY DOCTOR

Among the many apparently harmless
practices that should be discouraged is
that OF permitting the promiscuous kissing
OF babies. Not only should it be dis
couraged, because the interc hange of
kisses is a very common means of dis
seminating disease germs, and, therefore,
responsible for the spreading of diphtheria,
scarlet fever, and other contagious and in
feChous diseases, but because thebreath of
an adult, however sweet and pure it may
appear, is really heavily charged with
noxious gases, quite readily apparent to
the acute seIsibilities of the child, and
consequently obnoxious and disagreeable
Doubtless most OF us have at some time
or other observed the struggles of a child
in its efforts to escape the disagrceable
ordeal of being kissed and attributed
those efforts to timidity, instead OF dis
gust on the part of the child at receiving
such marks of affection. If the tempta-
ton to caress children in that manner
is too strong to he overcome or resisted
the kisses should he showered upon the
cheek or forehead, but never upon the
mouth.

FITzsIMMNoSM MONEY PLENTIFUL
The Corbett Bettors Are Very Timid

New York, Feb. 27.-Where are all the
Corbett men? is a question that uptown
sporting men are asking each other.
few weeks ago there was talk of millions
of backing for Corbett and nothing for
Fitzsimmons.
Tie men were scarcely matched before
Corbett was installed favorite at odds of
100 to 20. This gradually changed to 1GO
to so. AT these figures it was claimed that
the betting was very light The Corbett
men, however, said that there was no
Fitzsimmons money in sight, and for a
while appearances seemed to bear them
out in their conjecture.
A rude setback has been received by
the Corbett adherents during the last
few days

FRIDAY. FEBRUARY go. 1897
Will MKINLEY RULE oR OBEY?

WILL MKINLEY RULE OR OBEY?
This is a question that a great many
independent-minded people are now
asking themselves. If he is to have
successful administration, he must be
president of the United States, in fact,
as well as in name, and the time is
drawing near when he will be called
upon to declare himself on this import
ant question. He cannot longer lay in
ambush, as it were. and If he possesses
that Napoleonic character which his
friends have for some time credited
him with, he will show II when he as
sumes the reins of government in the
delivery OF his inaugural message to
Congress and to the people
In considering this matter reasonably
and judging the future by the
past, there is no especial reason to an
ticipate any great personal ability from
the incoming president. Major McKin-
ley Is what might be called a "goody'
kind Of a man. He has passed middle
life without making himself famous,
either as soldier or a statesman, and
he has gained his present position
more from good luck than for any
marked ability that he has shown here
tofore. He was brought prominently be-
fore the people by tariff bill concoct-
ed largely by other people and of which
Senator Aldrich, of the little State Of
Rhode Island was undoubtedly the real
author
Mckinley happened to be fortunate
enough to introduce this tariff bill in
the House, hence his name was at
tached to It and from that time forward
he became the idol of the high protec-
tionisis. From a second-rate Congress-
man, the Ohio sheep-raisers and manu-
facturers elected him governor of that
great state to protect their wool. This
was the first executive position he ever
held and his duties were performed
fairly well, but always in a partisan
spirit. Then why was Mckinley brought
forward for the presidency?
The reason for this is plain to those
who have observed the tendencies OF
the Republican party since the election
of General Harrison. From that time
onward it has been controlled by the
wealth of the country. Harrison was
elected by this combination The No
Kinley tariff was calculated to pay the
price of his election, but the country
rose in arms against it and wiped II
from existence. Then the tide turned
owing largely to our monetary troubles
and Mckinley was selected to be th'
standard bearer of those who believe
that the country should be ruled by th'
money power. AS such he was elected
largely by the votes of those who die
not understand the situation.
II Major Mckinley should prove to bl
a positive man like Jackson, or an OBJ
stinate one like Grant, he will rul
those who placed him in power and oil
this scant hope rests the safety and Sc
curity Of the government, as founde'
by Washington. His position is a tryinl
one. for the object Of Hanna and his co
adiutors is to wipe out the personal lib
erty of the people and govern the coun
try by a monied aristocracy. Consider
ing, then, that Major Mckinley has bee
