A writer in an exchange gives the
following simple treatment for burns;
A girl of eleven years turned over a
gallon of boiling liqvid on her leg and
foot. When the stocking was re-
moved the skin came off with it and
and the pain was intense. I tore a
strip off an old sheet. and having put
nearly pound of soda on tho limb,
wrapped the sheet about it in such a
manner as to exclude the air, bound
it firmly, saturated it well with coal
oil, and in fifteen minutes she sat with
her foot in chair and joined in the
other ehifdren's play. In two days
she was in school, and in two weeks
the limb was well. 1t never panied
her after it was dressed. A bare
footed boy stepped on fire. and was
almost in spasns with pain I bound
on soda and coal oil, and in less than
twenty minutes he was asleep and
had no more pain. l know it is the
best remedy for burns."1

Alexander Troup (Connecticut)-
personally I favor the Chicago plat

the campaign of 1900. 1 have yet to
find man In Connecticut or New
England who voted for Bryan as the
representative Of the principles Of the
Chicago platform III 1896 who desires
any modification Of the platform or
any change in the leadership. The so
called gold Democrats. who, to all an
pearances, are without n party. are the
only ones who desires to modify the
currency plank of the platform by
emitting the ratio of 16 to and making
opposition TO the industrial trusts and
opposition to Imperialism and militar-
ism the dominant features of the plat
form. No one who voted for Bryan. so

NOTES AND OrrNIUNS,

MORE MONEY AND LESS TAXES.
Representative Champ Clark, of Mis-
souri,. says that nearly the entire the
Dry of Democracy as to the financial
conduct OF the government may be con-
densed into the short. tersc phrase,
More Money and Less Taxes" Champ
Clark is right. There is more than
that in the Chicago platform on the
subject of finance. but not very much
more. The Chicago platform declares
for an income tax. The proposition IS:
More money and less taxes: taxes to
be levied upon surplus Wealth. instead
of upon the needs of the poor. An
overwhelming majority of the voters
are for that proposition. Only the
bosses OF the Republican party, who
are controlled by the great moneyed
interests. are opposed 10 it; and those
bosses. and their newspaper organs. do
not dare to openly oppose the income
tax doctrine of the Chicago platform
publican paper, Is about the way Re-
publicans handled the question III con-
gressional debates:
Whatever may BE- said as 10 the alb
stract merit OF an income tax, it can
not be had without an amendment to
the constitution. and that is a very re-
mote possibility"
Well. what obstacle Is there to n
constitutional amendment. except the
Republican party? The people Will
not hesitate to destroy the Republican
party. if that is the only way of get
ting what they want. Another and
easier way ont is to elect Democratic
president. who VIII appoint unpluto-
cratic justices OF the United States Su
preme Court. Next year will be 4
