casional visitor, but even with this
precaution it was found that the sig
natures were rapidly fading. The
signature of John Hancock, which ten
years ago was visible half across the
room, is now scarcely legible even
when 1t is held close to the eye. Alto
gether there are less than q dozen

The manuscript Of the declaration
itself apparently is as legible as ever,
a circumstance due to the, superior
quality Of ink used. The obliteration
of the historic signatures Is charged
by department officials to the press

administration in order that fac
simile Of the declaration might be
given to the families of each of the

the time, which is to-day the near

in existence aside from the fast-fad-

plate has recently been made from
the first in order that the first may
not be dulled by successive imprints

New York gives the Partisan creations
a back seat, according to the majority
of the thousands of women who fairly
scrambled over each other to view
the star creations on exhibition for
the convention of the Dressmakers'
Association of America. At the Fifth
avenue headquarters, where Partisan
gowns are on exhibition, crowds ex-
amined the foreign modiste's crea-
tions, but the greatest interest was In
the American gowns in Masonic hall.
This is the first competitive exhibition
of American gowns in this country.
The first session was open only to
members of the association, and from
Maine to California came dressmakers,
whose interest in the convention was
bubbling over. In Masonic temple,
seated among the scores of beautiful
gowns, sat the modistes listening to
the words of welcome by Mrs. Linda
Wade, of Nation, ILL.,, vice president,
and Mrs. Elizabeth White, president.

those who believe that Mr.. Babcock

reform those tariff schedules that

made similar promises, who are

POLITICAL ETHICS.
President Roosevelt Sets Precedent
at Defiance and Tries to
Cocrce Ohio.

Boss Hanna, chairman of the repub-
lican national committee. is quite as
audacious in his political moves as
President Roosevelt and seems to be
perfectly satisfied with the opportunity
that the appeal of the president afford-
ed him. Hanna has issued statement
which in effect says that the president,
having sent him telegram indicating
desire to have the Endorsement OF
the Ohio republican convention OF his
administration and candidacy, he
(Hauna) will not oppose.such indorse-
ment, and has telegraphet the presi-
dent to this effect. Hitherto no presi-
dent has made such an appeal for
votes. but precedent has no charm for
President Roosevelt He is evidently
his own campaign manager, and in that
capacity he employs the most modern
methods. A citizen of New York, all
though he happens to be the president,
debating to the leaders of another
state on their political action, is new
move in politics, and the implied threat
that he would consider as enemies
those who do not forward his ambi-
ton is much below the high plane
that the president of the United States
should stand upon. His anxiety to se-
cure delegates SO long in advance of
the national convention would indi-
cate that he is aware of an opposition
that must be formidable. Public opin-
ion may indorse this open fight that

the administration q single formal
meeting of the cabinet at which bust

new SCARLET FEVER CURE.
few York Doctor Tries New serum,
But Says 1t Ii Too Soon to Dee
clare 1t q Success.

DR.. Louis Fischer, of the Willard
Parker and Riverside hospitals, has
just completed his clinical report OF
the results of treating scarlet fever
with anti-streptococcus DR.. Fischer
describes how he came to use this
serum and how it affected two chill
dren.
The first case was that of child
four and half years old, whose
case was diagnosed as one of scarlet
fever.
Owing to the weakened state Of
the child, sepsis was feared and the
doctor injected 20 of Aronson's
anti-streptococcus serum on February
Is, 1908. The child's condition inn
proved gradually and continuously.
In the second case, girl eight
years old, tho doctor was called into
consultation on February 20. This
child had been i'll three days with a
temperature of 104 the day previous
and 1O4 Is on February 20. Her
pulse was weak and rapid. There
was a loss of appetite and general
apathetic condition.
Owing to the severe general in
rection, DR.. Fischer again decided to
give an injection of the anti-strep-
tococcus serum of the same strength
us in the previous case. On Febru-
airy 90, when he saw the patient
again, he noted the entire disap
pearance of necrotic patches in thu
throat, and the conditions were
identical with those of the first case
DR.. Fischer, however, warns prac
titioners that great care should b
exercised In judging this new Serum
from small, though successful
series of cases.
