THE ART OF spFMnIMc

A new creed. one that bids fair to do
away with the craze over the simple
life, and all erch passing fad, has been
taken UP in Boston by the hub city's
branch Of the Woman's Association of
College Alumnae That branch issend-
ing to its sister local organizations cir
culars recommending that the time of
the next year be devoted to the study
Of the "Art of Spending" under the
guidance Of Prof Thorsseain Veblen.
of the university of Chicago, who is
arther CT a sotirical study on "The
Theory of the Leisure Class"
The point that will be of interest to
married men whose wives have just
finished stocking up on Christmas
presents for all their relatives, and
friends is what the Boston women
suggrE Hhis new line of study as a

ence, but it is reasonable to expect that
this view is the right and sensible one.
1t has been several years since the
Iowa miners have found occasion to
resort to strikes. The miners of Iowa
have been extremely fortunate in Sc
lie sticg for their leaders conservative
men of good Judgment and the ability
to see long way into the future of the
coal business and the propositions it
presents to the miners. Iowa miners
are not agltators; they believe in man
aging their union aud their individual
interests in a business like manner,
and they realize that it is much better
for all concerned to settle differences
by peaceable means rather than by a
strike. They want no more than their
just portion of the profits of the bust
ness and they have always shown a
willingness to accept what was fair in
the way of remuneration for their la
Dor. The Iowa joint conference will
be held in March, and there is every
reason to hope that it will not be fol
lowed by a strike but will result in an
anicable agreement which will go in
force April 1, 1906, for two years.

THE PRIMARY SYSTEM.

Davenport Times.-The Des Moines
newspapers are pushing the primary
law idea. One Is advocating the state
wide primary because 1t believes it
was the original discoverer Of it in the
state, and the other wants all the state
committed to this form of naming
candidates and expressing preferences
for public officers because it believes
the men with whom it is allied will be
able to carry the primaries when they
might not be able to carry the eau
cuses and conventions. There is
much to be said in favor of the pri-
mary system, just as there is much
to be said AGAINST it and in favor of
the present system.
But 1t is mistake for one of the
Des Moines newspapers in it's enthus-
scott county. for instance, is in favor
of the primary system. Mr.. Calder
wood will express his opinion when he
sees the details of the proposed
measure. He has not said whether he
Is against the primary, per Sc, or In
favor of it. The assertions in regard
to senator's, therefore, will have to be
taken with an allowance.
The primary law idea does not need
to be pushed In that way If it has
merit, and If it Is not popular such
methods will not foist it on the peo-
pie. And again, there Is really no need
OF being in a hurry in regard to this
primary law. 1t might be good
thing to refer the whole question to
the people, although that Is not neces-
sary. At anv rate it would be a good
subject to discuss at. the time Of elect
ing the next legislature, and 1t may
be decided to let it go over until the
people have a chance to express them
selves upon the subject However, IL
some law is proposed this winter, the
question of whether such a measure is
advisable or not may take on new
phases that may lead to changes of
opinion. In brief, II the right kind of
measure is proposed 1T may be pop
ular But in any event the people will
want time for intelligent discussion
and opportunity to advise their repre-
sentatives and senator's.

Chicago Inter ocean.-Dr. osIer has
the misfortune to be seldom either
represented fairly or quoted correctly.
When he qualities a declaration we
too frequently get the declaration
with the qualification left out More
over, DR.. Osler is a great student. a
great scholar, and a teacher Of recog-

This much should be said in simple
justice to him. OF more interest,
therefore, than silly repetitions Of the
thorouhgly refuted statement that he
advises the elimination of men over

STATE FAIR EARLIER
AGRICULTURAL EXPOSITION TO
BE HELD IN DIES MolNEs
AUGUST 24s1, 1905
Event Will Be Held First of All Fairs
Next Year-Believed to Be the Best
Dates securable-Air Ship One
Attraction.

The Iowa state fair, which attracts
hundreds of people from this city ev-
cry year, will be held from August
"a to August 81 inclusive in 1906. This
will put Iowa the first of all state fairs
next year, and without any big fairs
In the same week assures for this
state the greatest exposition In it's his
tory. Secretary j. G. Simpson of Des
Moines, who returned recently, Is we'll
pleased with the dates agreed upon at
the annual meeting of the American
Association of EXpositions and Fairs.
Iowa had some desires to secure date
for the last week in September but
this could not be arranged without
serious competition with neighboring
state fairs and the last week of August
was finally accepted with much salts
faction.
No other state fair is assigned to
that week, which assures Iowa clear
field. Coming first in the list of the
big state fairs, Iowa will also get the
stock exhibits while they are in their
freshest and best condition. 1t also
assures the biggest stock show of the
season for the Iowa fair, as the exhib-
itors will meet In the first competition
of the year and will not know the char
acter Of the other fellows stock until
he gets to the Iowa fair. Thus all the
leading exhibitors will come After
having exhibited in competition at two
or three fairs the stockmen come to
recognize the standing of their en-
tries and fail to- appear at the later
fairs If they have small chance for the
first nrnn1i,Ima
Dates for the State Fairs.
Aside from giving the Iowa state fair
the last days of August, the American
association assigned Minnesota Me-
in September. Five fairs get the Sec
South Dakota, Kansas, Indiana and
New York. For the third week of Sep
TENDER the interstate fair at Sioux
City, Michigan and Kentucky are list
ed. Illinois gets the fourth week Of
SeDtember, Missouri the first week of
October and the American Royal Live
Stock show at Kansas City the second
week of October. This year the Mis-
souri, fair came before the Iowa.
With Minnesota following Iowa the
next week, the general custom of the
two fairs to secure similar attractions
and exhibits will probably continue, as
it has proved of great advantage to-
both fairs. All the leading exhibitors
at the International stock show in Chi
cago were much pleased with the date
for the Iowa state fair next year and
gave assurance that they would have
even larger and better exhibits In Des
Moines the coming year than ever be-
fore.

IAN effort to ape the leisure class"
Prof. Veplen declares in his article
that there is no class which spends so
large q per cent of income on ,conspic-
uous waste as does the scholarly
class, because it usually is rated under
higher social grade than it's pecuni-
airy means will warrant" Then the
college professor inquiries: who
then, shall decide on canon of expen-
diture OF time and money if not the
thoughtful, patriotic, we'll informed
women of American" Next follows
the creed:
What is my duty toward myself?
l believe that, having had the gates
opened to me into fields Of thought,
and having been trained to compre-
bend in some degree the significance
of the worlds activities, it is worse
than folly to cumber myself with so
much OF mere superficial baggage that
/ can neither enjoy the intellectual
feast to which l am hidden nor con-
tribute to the worlds store of accom-
rlishment that which, if less bur-
dened, might give.
What is my duty towards my fami-
ly? | believe in the home and the
family; in sane and rational daily
Housekeeping, to which l am ready to
give the necessary amount of my time
and energy; | believe it is my duty to
determine what useless financial bur-
dens l am carrying and to proportion
my expenses to my income in such
way as to make a home of comfort and
Esimplicity without undue anxiety"
Though there has been little done in
other cities, the Boston women have
taken up the study of the new ques-
ton with all the vim that usually
characterizes the cultivation of fads.
| The suggestion has come in good time
| and it is safe to say that if husbands
have ANYTHING to say about it, the
fact will become popular one and
Will be taken up, not only by college
women but by many others in many
| places.

authentic. DR.. osler says:

authentic. DR.. Osler says:
Man has an Unborn craving for
| medicine. Heroic dosings for several
generations have given his tissues a
| thirst for drugs. AS / once before re-
marked, the desire to take medicine
is one feature which distinguishes
man the animal from his fellow crea-
lures. 1t is really one of the most SER
ious difficulties with which we (med-
lcal doctors) have to contend. Even
In minor ailments which would yield
to dieting or to simple home remedies
the doctors visit Is not thought to be
complete without the prescription"
And he adds:
And, now that the pharmacists
have cloaked even the most nauseous
remedies, the temptation Is to use
medicine on every OCCASION; and fear
that we may return to the state of
poly pharmacy, the emancipation from
which has been the sole gift of Hahne-
mann and his followers to the race"
But
AS the public becomes more en-
lightened, and we get more sense dos
ing viii be recognized as very minor
function in the practice of medicine
IN comparison with the old method of
Ascieplades."
Or. Osler uses vigorous language in
advising the students about to enter
upon practice to avoid the supersti-
t1ous beliefs in drugs that have grown
up IN or that have been encouraged
by the medical profession. Speaking
of the physician. he says: "The peril
IS that, should he cease to think for
himself, he becomes mere automa-
ton, doing a penny in the-slot bust
ness which places him on a level with
the chemists clerk who can hand out
specifics for every ILL.,.
1t will be seen from these extracts
that DR.. Osler is not only a very wise
but also a very brave man. 1t re-
quires high order of courage for the
medical scientist to publish to the
world what he has said of modern
medical practice behind closed doors.
