''Herzl advanced coolly to forge people
out of human dust without common will or
aim to win land for this people without
army a fleet, without finances from
governments which only reckon with these
factors to get concessions. This was an
undertaking that might have frightened
back the Erave~t. 1t was an undertaking
with no future, said the antagonists of III
Onism. But Herzl was convinced of it's feas-
ibleness and did not let himself be thwarted
when others called that a Utopia which he
looked on as necessary and possible work.

plying the emergency brakes stopped
the train within few feet of where
the boy was standing.

WEAK CAN BEAR PAIN BEST
Physical Power Not Always Best in
Severe Operations, Declares
Famous Surgeon.

DR.. ]. P. Lockart Mummery, the ia
nous British surgeon, says it is often
extremely difficult to estimate the con-
dition of a patient with regard to his
power of standing a severe operation.
Often weakly looking individual, who
looks as If he would not stand severe
operation well, stands it quite we'll, and
vice versa.
This is accounted for by the fact
that person of poor physique who
leads strenuous life has often much
more highly developed nerve centers
than one of robust physique who leads
a life of ease and Incidence, which
makes but slight calls upon his nerve
centers for great or sudden activity.
The mental condition of q patient
prior to operation has considerable
influence upon the development of
shock. Patients who dread an opera
ton and who are in a state of consid-
cradle mental anxiety before the an
aesthetic is administered are more liza
BILE, other things being equal, to devel-
OPP shock than those whose mental
equilibrium is undisturbed.

very frequently accept much handsom.

you to make is to always refuse all
gifts from men but flowers and candy
and perhaps books and music. OF
course, if you have known young
man for years, or If he is an intimate
friend of the family, special dis
pensation" might sometimes be
granted. Otherwise I would advise
you to return any very handsome gift
which is sent you by young man,
and with it send a gracious and cor

you appreciate most sincerely his
kind thought Of you, and assuring him
that you return the gift only because
you make it q rule never to accept
from any man anything beyond tie
conventional gift of flowers, books Or

FINK STILL BEING PURSUED
County Treasurer Becomes object of
New Attack by Some Ag-
grieved NeighbOrs.

There is a rather grievous misapprehen-
sion, yet withal laughable one, abroad
and being circulated by people of small un-
derstanding as to the very rich ''rakeoff''
which County Treasurer Fink is to get as
a result of the combination of the city
treasurers off1ce with his own. 1t should
be understood right from the start that
the only increase of emoument to Mr.
Fink is $1,000 a year, making his salary
$4,000. where It was $1,000
With this understood the fact remains
that there will be a saving of about $15, 900
year in the expense of collecting the
city and the county taxes. The con-
venience to the public, at first planned
through consolidation of the offices, was
lost in the demands of certain interests
which demand they had enacted into the
law. that the method and time of collecting
the taxes remains practically the same
The simplification of fiscal bookkeeping Of
the two tax divisions must await another
session of the legislature.
The county treasurer's Office gets per
cent of all money collected, as fees, and
from this all the expenses of the office, in
Guiding Mr. Fink's salary, are paid. Under
the new city charter he is to collect / per
cent as fees, but this charter provision
does not supersede or take the place of
the revenue law of the state One per
cent on s1,000,0oO, which is the city's limit
on tax levy, would make $4,000; If collected
on $1,500,000 1t would of course be $4,000.
Adding this to the 2 per cent on county
collections, would not reach by a good
man ythousands the startling figures put
out in late 'aggrieved publication" to
show that County Treasurer Fink was to
get enormously rich In the remaining time

SWOBoDA FINDS BIG BILLS
New County Physician Thinks Hos

Unnecessarily Large.

While DR.. Louis Swoboda has only been
in office as county physician for a day or
two, as a practical druggist with many
years experience, he already has gained
some notion from the county expense bills
for drugs which undoubtedly will result
in a material reduction of the item in the
county budget.
A passing glance, for instance, Informed
the doctor that some very expensive pur-
chases have been made not only for the
county proper but also for the Associated
Charities. Bed pans at $3.50 each, the
doctor thinks are rather luxurious for any
person, no matter what his station in life.

orders for charity patients, there is not

reply to question as to the policy he
will follow. MY experience as a drug
gist some years ago leads me to believe,
however, that very material reduction
in the yearly drug and medicine bill can
be effected without seriously cramping the
efficiency of the service. The matter will
have my early and careful attention, to
the end that the county shall get its
moneys worth, whether goods be secured
from the regular contractors or from out
side concerns.
