Bishop Was an Editor.

DIR. O,Reilly, archbishop of Adelaide
South Australia, possesses an unusual
accomplishment. Before he became
a bishop he was the editor of one OF
the Australian Catholic journals. His
compositors went out on strike. and
in the emergency he helped in the me
chanicaI department. By the time the
difficulty had been adjusted he had
pretty well mastered the art of type
setting, and for the rest of his edi-
torial career he did not write his lead
ing articles. He just went into the
composing-room and set them UP.

A few years ago the people of ia

the result that the snakes vanished.

where they so reduced the number Of
eggs and birds that the cattle ticks
began TO breathe more freely-so
freely, indeed. they fell upon the mon
goose himself. which is now threat
ened with extinction.

ed In the columns of The Ladies'
Home Journal and Golfers Weekly.
has evoked an answer from the Com
mittee on Legislation of the Proprie-
tary Association. The committee says:
I'm considering the question raised
by recent attacks upon proprietary
medicines, every reasonable man will
admit that there is a wide and legiti-
mate field for the manufacture and
sale of medicines already prepared
for general use and easily obtainable
at all times and everywhere. :.
AS a matter of fact these medicines
are not patented at all. and the popu-
lar use of the word patent in connec-
tion with them is a misnomer. Any
pharmacist will tell you that practi-
cally the only patent medicines in
use to-day are those which are manu-
factured either by foreign or domestic
pharmaceutical houses. and which are
now almost exclusively dispensed by
physicians or designated by them in
their prescriptions.

subject OF wholesale attack by Mr..
Box and Editor Hapgood are the old
fashioned family remedies properly
