No Lady Would DO
Such a Thing.

No lady would take her watch when

PLAYED the sign watches Regulated

enquire for a man whose acknowledged
skill entitled him to take in charge the
delicate mechanism.
How much more careful should a
woman be, when she herself is disor-
derded, not to entrust the delicate and
complex mechanism Of her being to the
first man or woman who displays the
sign Medical Advice Given" No sign
is to be trusted which says Medical
Advice Given" and stops there. Medi-
cal advice can be given only by ply
sician. An accredited physician will put
his title with his name. Suppose a sign
reads, Medical Advice Given by a
Man" What woman would rot in
stantly say, THE fact of being man
doesn't qualify him to give medical adj
vice. He must be a physician to do
that" But suppose the sign reads {:
Medical Advice Given by Woman"
Is not the fact Just as patent that being
7Uoman does not qualify her to give
medical advice. The woman must be
a physician to do that. Medical advice
given by an unskilled woman is Just as
dangerous as if given by an unskilled
man.
In inviting sick and ailing woman to
consult him by letter without charge,
DR.. Pierce points to an experience and
practice of over thirty years, devoted
specially to diseases peculiar to women
In that time DR. Pierce and his associate

The Hartford Courant takes the ac-
cident at Mt. Desert Ferry as Il text
for a discourse on the Importance of
all persons being able to swim. The
awful trap into which those 200 persons
were dropped when the slip gave way
afforded little opportunity for the
and it is known that several of the
drowned were fine swimmers. But
if all had been good swimmers
enough to have confidence and courage
when in the water a great part of the
horror of the occasion would have been
averted. Anyway, the main conten-
ton of the Courant that all children
should be taught to swim, holds good.
The public schools these days are add
ing much in the way of manual train
ing to the education of the children
and the new departure receives the in
dorsement of the best minds engaged
in education. But there is one element
of manual training that they have not
touched that would be of more use in
life than anything they have so far
undertaken TO populariZe. This is the
art of swimming. Every summer we
have day after day the sad story OF
| drownings that the knowledge of
| swimming would have averted. Where

We have no doubt that sooner or later

sorry features of manual training. and

Portland Press: The friends of pro.
hibition often urge that, while the en-
forcement of the law is unsatisfactory,
there is the same difficulty with license
laws and other enactments for regulat-
ing the liquor traffic. That there is
some truth in this is shown by the fact
that strong and well-nanased league
of citizens is now finding abundant op-
pOrtunity for work in the State of
Rhode Island in detecting and bringing
to Justice violatOrS of the license law,
especially Sunday liquor sellers, drug
Gists and tavern keepers. OF course.

there might and probably would still
exist a wide difference between their
respective relations to the liquor traffic.
But on casual view at least, is seems
certain that there is much trouble en-
forcing all kinds of liquor laws, wheth-
er mild or drastic.
