practically no end to the number of
men Russia could pour into the field
if the necessity arose. Japan, on the
other hand, limited in population as
well as other resources, was compelled
to take every precautiOn to preserve
the fighting strength of her army and
make every mans service count for as
much as possible. She could not ar
ford to let ner soldiers die of dis
ease, so that from the practical stand
point, to say nothing of the humani-
tartan, Japan was compelled to create
the best possible conditions in the
camp, in the field and in the hospital,
affecting the health and life of her
soldiery.
But surely what Japan has done so
we'll will not be lightly regarded by
any progressive government. Certainly
we shall see much more consideration
shown hereafter to the medical and
surgical department and due recogni-
ton in rank and emoluments given to
the men to whose hands are committed
the health and efficiency of the fight
ing man.

DANGERS OF PUBLICITY.

Mr.. George B. Cox, boss of Cincin-
natl and in part of Ohio, has retired"
"Others," ne says, must bear the our
dens of future campaigns"
Some months ago, when Lincoln
Steffens of McClure's Magazine called
on this political dictator, he found him
in little room over the Mecca sa-
loon-'a great hulk of a man porting
over a newspaper" His account con-
tinues:
care you the boss of CINCINNATI" I
asked.
Il am" he gr-lnbled in his hoarse,
throaty voice.
"Of course you have a mayor and
council. and judg So
Yes" he admitted; but -" he
pointed with his thumb over his
shoulder to the desk-"I have a tele-
phone, too"
When Mr. Steffens had finished his
investigation of the machine he saw
the boss again.
What do you think of it?' he asked.
Pretty good I said.
"Pretty-!" He was too disguised
to finish. BEST you ever saw"
Well I can't tell" 1 said. my
criterion for a graft organization is,
now few divide the graft. How many
divide it here?"
Amt no graft" he grumbled.
"Then it's a mighty poor thing"
He pOndered a moment. Then,
How many do you say divides up
here?"
Three at least" I said. "You and
Garry Herman and Rud Hynicka.'
Ugh" he grunted, scornfully, wag-
ging one finger slowly before my face.
There's only one divides up here"
They tell how once, in a beer hall,
when Herman and Hynicka and some
others were talking quite like free and
independent men, Cox, who had been
porting over his beer, broke in hoarse-
ly, "But when I whistle you dogs come
out of your holes, don't you?" They
were still. Don't you, Garry?" the
master repeated That's right said
Garry.
This interview was read by nearly
every voter in Ohio, and as Mr.. Cox
took no legal action against McClure's,
it's publication must have had much to
do with the defeat of what was alleged
to be "the machine"
Publicity seems to be a dangerous
thing-to machines" that are suscep-
tible to light.

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS:
ANOTHER LESSON FROM JAPAN.

Major Louis L. Seaman says in the
Review of Reviews, that statistics
show that, as a rule, 80 per cent of the
mortality of any army in active SER
vice is due to disease, and 20 per cent.
to bullets For example, in the war
between Russia and Turkey $4,000
men died of disease and 10000 in bat
tie or as the result of wounds received
in battle. Often the disparity is even
greater. In the Crimean war the al
lies lost $4,000 men the first six
months by disease and only 1000 in
battle In the French expedition in
Madagascar in 1894 disease killed 1000
men, while only twenty nine died
from bullets. The conditions in NADIA
gascar may be regarded as peculiar,
hospital and medical service to guard
against those conditions. In our war
with Spain we lost 293 men in bat
tie or as the result of wounds received
in battle in six weeks campaign.
and during the same time 1886 died
from disease
But note the very different results
in the Japanese Russian war from
February. 1904 to May. 1905. During
that period 1882 men were killed on
the field, or 1872 per cent. of the en-
tire army The wounded numbered
1852, or 24.27 per cent of the en-
tire army, but of this $4,000 only
9,O54 died of their wounds or $50 per
cent. The deaths from sickness and
disease, including contagious diseases.
MORO or nor cont Of no army
So it appears that counting deaths
from wounds and those killed in battle
the total fatalities were 52.946, or 9
per cent. while the deaths from sick
ness were 1892. or 2 per cent.
He accounts for this remarkable re-
suit on three grounds. First, prepara-
ton. The Jap knew for a long while
before the war commenced that he
was going to fight and he began to
make careful preparations, studying
the hospital service of other coun-
tries and their systems of sanitation
seeking to avail himself of every pro-
lection known to science and expert
ence for the life Of the soldier. The
hospital accommodations We're made
adequate so that even after the battle
of Mukden, when 1900 wounded men
were sent home for treatment, the mil
itary hospitals were ready to take
care of them. The second reason as
signed is the simple, wholesome, easily
digestible and nourishing ration fur
nished to the soldier. A third rea-
son given is brilliant medical and sur
gical service.
Japan knew before the war COM
menced that she was inviting a contest
with nation that had more men
available for military service tnan
any other in the world there was

BRONCHITIS
The Green & Jackson Drug Co. Tell
the People the Quickest Means to
Cure It.

Asked one day In their store the
question, What is good for bron-
chitis?' Mr.. Jackson of the above
firm answered, For years old fash
toned cod liver oil has been known to
tive and healing properties for throat,
bronchial, and lung troubles of any
thing known to medicine, but on ac-
count of the grease which enveloped
its curative principles. it has been
impossible for many people to take
enough of it into their systems to
combat thoroughly settled disease
without clogging the system and up
setting the stomach.
Now, however" continued Mr.
Jackson, eve have Vinol, which con-
tains in a highly concentrated form
all of the medicinal curative elements
Of cod liver oil actually taken from
fresh Gods livers, without drop of
oil or grease to upset the stomach
and retard it's work, and physicians
agree that it is the greatest cure for
all throat. bronchial and lung trou-
bles known to medicine"
Miss Anna Ray writes us that
after suffering for five years with
bronchitis, and trying all kinds of
medicines without relief Vinol cured
her. and we have hundreds of just
such letters.
We wish every person suffering
from chronic colds, coughs, bron-
chitis, and every aged, weak, or con-
valescent person who needs a heal

The man with a grievance has long
been advised to tell his troubles to a
policeman, but the city of Cleveland
is the first to provide a sympathetic
officer as a listener. An antisuicide
commission has been named by Mayor
Tom Johnson, and anyone thinking
of taking his own life is asked to go
and talk it over with the city COM
mission The mere talking it out"
is often a great help, but if the COM
mission is able to provide work or
take away discoura gements from the
path of a citizen, so much the better
Suicide does not seem to be the logical
way out of trouble.

 Tn ths commonplace daily life of the home the united family avoids picker ing, fault-hnding, snvy, jealousy and the malignant brood which follow in one another to outsiders There is a quaint proverb to the effect that soiled linen Is best washed at home.
 No family with the slightest claim to decency airs It's grievances before the world, or goes about retailing the infirmities or the sins of those who bear its name. If the family be large, there Is every reason to expect that somebody in It may fall short of the family standard. There is all the more reason, this being the case, to throw the mantle of charity over the unfor- tunate and to keen silent about what cannot be helped. Family pride is of ten carried to excess and it may. make us laughing stock to our neighbors. particularly if the family honors are all in the past. and the present does nothing to Justify it.

 (Copyright, 1905, by Joseph B. Bowles).
 The Birches are such a united fam fly! They seem to have a good time among themselves. and to depend very little on the outside world" The re- mark was descriptive of a family which had so large a connection that 1t might almost be called a clan. You know how 1t is in Some localities. Many years ago the traditional three broth CTS came sailing over the great ocean, and established themselves on Long Island or in Otsego County, or drifted out in prairie schooners to the West or encamped in the South. Hence. there is in one place a great settlement of Browns, in another of Whites, in another of Grays. Up hill and down in adjacent parishes the cousinhood re- sides. and the outbranchlng of the fam fly to remoter regions starts from that point, so that when there are family rallyings, old and young, distant and near. converge to the old ground and the old homestead. The tie of blood is always strong, but there are tribes of David and of Jonathan. where the tribal instinct is relatively more wig. orous than in tribes. let us say. of Benjamin and of Theodore, who hava the nomadic drop more deeply coioring their lives.
 when we come to a united household. we mean by it one where affection is deep and true. where 1t Is a joy to make concessions and sacrifices, and where one stands steadfastly beside the other through thick and thin. There are such homes. In them brothers and sisters love one another with devotion that lastB to the latest hour of life. If one in Nhe family is weak or erring, the 0titerg close around him like a wall and d&fend him from adverse criticism, shield him if they can from the conse- aRences of his miadauaaanaxk- and
