An Important Test of Quality.

The quality of a newspaper, like that
of an individual, is best determined by
its bearing under circumstances that
try its capacity. The gathering of the
news of the Graeco-T Turkish war is q
case in point. AS soon as it became
reasonably certain that there would be
fighting 'The Philadelphia Press sent
staff correspondents to the capital of
the countries involved. In consequence
1.-The Press has had every day prompt,
complete and accurate information OF
every move on each side Of the conflict.
No other Philadelphia paper has had
this service and only few other papers
in the country have gone to the same
trouble and expense. 1t Is gratifying to
note this new evidence that "The Phil
adelphia Press" neglects no opportunity
to streghten its position as Pennsyl-
vania's greatest newspaper.

MUNYON OFF FOR EUROPE.
stitutiOns i'm London, Paris
and Berlin.

The steamer New York, OF the Ameri-
can Line, Wednesday carried among it's
passengers Professor ]. M. Munyon and
staff OF his physicians. When ques-
toned as to his intentions Professor
MunyOn said: eyes, it is true | have
determined to introduce my remedies into
all foreign countries. The fact is L have
had SO many orders for my cures from
abroad, not only from tourists, but from
people who have heard of these remedies
through their friends on this side of the
water, that | am led to believe that |
will meet the same generous patronage
there for my cures that has been expert
enced here. Human nature is about the
same the world over. When person is
sick he wants to get well in the quickest
and most economical way. This is the
age of progress. The old style of doctor
ing is being abandoned. People have
discovered that they don't require big
doses of calomel and other dangerous
drugs to effect a cure.
Il am glad to see," said Professor
MunyoD, ''that physicians of different
schools are becoming more liberal and
less bigoted in their ideas, and ] believe
that in few years my system of DOCTOR
ing will be generally adopted by all
schools of medicine. The enormous sales
OF my remedies last year, amounting to
nearly ten million walls, shows their
popularity and curative qualities. The
system of preparing separate cure for
each disease appeals to the common
sense of all intelligent communities, and
enables people to doctor themselves sue
cessfully and cure themselves at the least
possible expense.
Il shall give London the largest and
best-equipped medical institution IN the
world l shall take there duplicate OF
all my improved medical appliances as
well as complete stock of my remedies,
and snail offer them to the public on the
same generous terms that are afforded
our people at home.
'It is my intention to make the estab-
lishment in London a resting place for
all American tourists, where newspapers
will be on file from every State and
county in the United States, and where
full line of American publications can
always be found. | also intend to have
registry and news buresu for the con-
venience of Americans. OF course this
service and convenience will be abso-
lutely free, and | want all Americans to
feel perfectly at home, making use of this
institution whenever they have an ache
or pain or desire any information"
Professor Munyon carries with him the
best wishes of his countrymen. We feel
certain that he will receive warm vel
come abroad and that his humane labors
will be crowned with mans universal
gratitude.

A New view of the Bird Question

''The Bird on a Woman's Hat" is the
subject of an editorial BY Edward W.
Box, in the May Ladies' Home Journal,
which presents the live, practical side OF
the movement against the slaughter OF
birds for their plumage. The crusade,
Mr.. Box considers, has been carried on
upon unwise lines, and overzealously
"There is practical element in this de-
sired REFORM" he writes, "and it is this:
Anybody who has given even the most
cursory attention or study to botany
knows that all forms of life have their
origin in plant life. Every animal which
exists either lives directly on some
plants, or on insects which destroy
plants. The birds find their sustenance
mainly in the insects that injure vegeta-
ton and ofttimes kill it entirely. A
sufficiently large number of ineeets will
kill crop. If there are no birds, natu-
rally the insects have everything their
own way. havs recently gone to con-
siderable pains to find out from farmers
to what extent the decrease of birds is
effecting their crops, and find that the
condition is more alarming than we,
who live in the cities and large centres,
have any idea of. All the farmers to
whom | spoke or wrote agreed that last
year the. increase of insects were un-
usually great, while the decrease of
birds was even greater. For every
hundred birds killed, about sixty are
born. Hence it is easy to see that the
greater the number of birds killed the
more exposed become the crops of the
farmer to the insects. The same may
be said of our trees. for the bird is really
the balance OF Nature. To what extent
this balance is being upset by fashion is
easy to realize from the statement that
during 1896 the plumage of over three
millions of birds was received in New
York.
1t is these things which I would like
women to think about when they pur-
chase birds for their hats. Naturally q
supply depends npon a demand Il
women would moderate their buying
of hats adorned with birds or their
plumage fewer birds would be slaugh-
tered. Those who kill the bird cannot
be rightly attacked. They simply sup
ply demand. The reform in this mat
ter lies with the women who have adopt
ed this fashion,"
