The glasses were going round when
thu man who had been in the navy
spoke: "Wait a minute, boys. We've
had several. Let me give you tip that

own with anybody, east, west or north,
who tries to put you under the table.
But unless you carry out my plan don't

Englishman, and especially an army or

out on whisky, but he doesn't drink
it, except in the shape of smoky Scotch

of outstaying their American guests or
hosts whenever two ships met on for

the Englishman has never since come

Have You Investigated?
The Standing cfthe Doc
tor Or Doctors You
Employ.
Be Careful Of Medical Institutes
EspS cialIy Those whose Proprietor
Dares Not Publish His Own
Name

On Saturday October 2, the Copper
Country Evening News published re-
print OF the st. Louis Republic headed,
Trade in bogus diplomas; bogus colleges
grant fraudulent medical certificates;
hundreds posing as physicians who are
not entitled to practice, nearly all hold
ing these diplomas are ignorant OF the
rudiments of medicine
The article further goes on to state
that there are two OF these bogus col
leges now domiciled in Illinois. Up to Il
few months ago there was another hold
ing a charter from the State OF Wiscon-
sin, but in consequence OF the removal OF
its headquarters to illinois the charter
has been forfeited at the instgation of
the State officials.
Long before the above article appeared
in the local papers have we warned the
people OF the copper country oil the un-
scrupulous men who are rracticing med
icine; there are thousands of them scat
tered throughout this country, who make
living by praying upon the sick and
afflicted; we have long warned the people
TO be careful whom they employ as their
physician, as he may be one who has
either bought or stolen piece OF paper,
and after filing in his name, calls tia
diploma.
IN every walk OF life, in every trade
and in every profession we find some
who are an honor to their fellow work
ers while Others are a Disgrace. But in
no other instance can one 40 hoodwink
the public as in the medical profession.
Before entrusting your medical adviser
with your money, health or secrets, be
sure that he is II physician or il connect
ed with reputable medical institute;
avoid all medical institutes whose propri
etor dares not use his own name and
never having graduated from medical
college, ia obliged to hide his identity by
advertising the name OF some one as
chief consulting physician OF his institute.
The people OF the copper country have
been fleeced 30 often by these sharks, that
we deem it our duty to caution them to
be on their guard.
Be careful TO whom you entrust your
lives; investigate the standing and rep.
utation of the head of the concern or in
stitute with whom you do business; We
want TO be investigated; the.head OF our
concern ia a graduate from one OF the
Lending medical colleges of New York; ht
il registered at Houghton and in almost
every State in the Union; always look to
the head man of any concern, thereby

Leather and Kerosene.

There is one use of kerosene which is
seldom mentioned. 1t often happens
that when heavy shoe or boot has been
wet it hardens and draws so that IL
hurts the foot. If the shoe is put ON
and the leather thoroughly wet with
kerosene, the stiffness will disappear
and the leather become pliable, adapt
ing itself to the foot. If oiled while
wet, the leather retains its softness a
longer time. The kerosene does not in
jure the leather at all.

Horrible Exhibition of Turkish Brutality

From 'eA Bystander's Notes of
Massacre, by WAN Troshine, in Scrib-
ner's, we quote as follows:
Zone horrible occurrence took
place while I was crossing the bridge
about half past twelve on Thursday.
An old gentleman, an Armenian,
stood at the ticket Office of the steam
boat company, buying his ticket to go
to the upper Bosphorus: A police
man came up and rather roughly
searched his person. The old gentle
man naturally demonstrated with some
warmth. The policeman instantly
knocked him down. The poor old
man picked himself up, and the po-
liceman knocked him down again.
Upon this o. Turkish army officer came
out of coffee shop, and rebuked the
policeman for his brutality to an old
man. To justify himself the police
man declared that the old man had
cartridges in his pocket. Then some
one yelled ,ssKill the Giaour!" In q
moment a crowd of ruffians sprang
forward from, no one knows what
lurking places and in less time than
it takes to tell it they had beaten out
the old mans brains OH the
planks in front of the steamer wharf.
Two small Armenian boys stood by,
paralyzed with terror at this sudden
exhibition of passions OF which they
had no idea. One of the bludgeor-
men noticed them and shouted out,
These also are Armenians!' In no.
meut more the crying, pleading boys
had been beaten to death before the
eyes of the officers and of the horror
stricken passengers who were waiting
for the steamer. But neither officers,
nor police, nor passengers, had aught
to say to the murderers."
