His Physicians Say There Is Little Hope
of His Recovery.
Washington, Jan. 6.-The condition of
Representative Nelson Dingley of
Maine who has been i'll with pneumonia
for almost a week, has undergone a
marked change for the worse and to-
night his physicians hold out little if
any hope of recovery. Although the
lung has improved considerably and
the cough lessened, the effect of the
pneumonia has so weakened the sys-
TEN as to decrease the vitality to an
alarming extent. The poison from the
sickness has permeated the whole sys-
tenn, which renders it less potent to
stand the terrible strain. Much If the
day the patient was delirious and APP
peared to be uttering extracts from
speeches he had made on the tariff
question in the house of representa-
tives. He was conscious only when
aroused. The physicians say there must
be a radical change one way CT the
other very soon.

"lf we adopt colonial policy and
pursue the course which excited the
revolution of 1916, we must muffle
the tones of old liberty bell and COM
mune in whispers when we praise the
patriotism of our forefathers.
'If we could destroy every vestige of
the laws which are the outgrowth of
the immortal law penned by jefferson;
if we could obliterate every written
word that has been inspired by the idea
that this is a government of the people,
by the people and for the people, we
could not tear from the hearts of the
human race the hope which the Amer
lean republic has planted there. The
impassioned appeal, Give me liberty or
give me death, still echoes around the
world. In the future, as in the past,
the desire to be free will be stronger
than the desire to enjoy mere physi-
cal existence. The conflict between right
and might will continue here and every
where until a day is reached when the
love of money will no longer> scar the
national conscience and hypocrisy no
longer hide the hideous features of
avarice behind the mask of philan-
thropy.'

OF care, and more particularly motherless
girls. who have no kind elder to make them
lie down for at least an hour every day.
The rccumbent posture ayerts many an evil,
The shoulders should be perfectly Nat upon
the coucn and the head be only slightly
raised. Girls are such active, vigorous
creatures that they often object to lying
down in this way, but a careful mother may
easily learn how to turn this restful time
into a pleasure. In almost all cases i'm
provement will result from gymnastic and
calisthenic exercises, from rowing, drilling
and swimming. But it is absolutely neces-
sary that the patient should be mindful con-
stantly of her own bearing. She must hold
her shoulders back, her head up and her
chest forward. At first this position will
cause some stiffness, but If persevered in
and accompanied by calisthenic exercises, or
even games like lawn tennis, 1t will soon
become natural, easy and graceful"

cases which may seem to be of the hope
