PARKS A BLESSING.

The explanation OF the manner in
which the park improvements are
10 be financed, given in today's Sun
by the board Of park commissioners
should satisfy the people of Paducah
that the commissioners know what
they are talking about. No doubt ev-
erybody agrees in the desire to see
the parks established as soon as pos
sble. II only for the selfish reason,
that he would like to enjoy the park
himself, and when II is clearly un-
derstood that no additional expense
above that arbitrarily fixed by the
state OF Kentucky VIII fall on the
taxpayers, there probably will be no
objection raised to the plan.
Moreover, the suggestion that un-
slightly tenements should be torn
down and the parks constructed on
their sites meets with the approba-
tion OF right thinking people. Padu-
cab has some blocks in which as ma
ny as fifty shanties stand and several
hundred people dwell under the
most unsanitary conditions. These
nests are the breeding places of pes
thence. Epldemics of smallpox and
other loathsome diseases that fire.
quently break out in cities find lodg-
ing in these miserable settlements.
and 1t costs city many times the
price OF a park site to eradicate the
germs OF the disease. although other
parts OF the city are comparatively
free from the pestilence, save as they
are subjected TO contamination from
the Infected district. A long quaran-
tine would cost Paducah or any 9TH
er city where such places are allow
ed to exist, more than would a park.
There seems to be no way OF get
ting rid of these crowded tenement
quarters except by the city buying
the land and making It into a play
ground. II is being tried in many |
places. especially in the great cities
The tenement question everywhere
Is problem OF health and morality.
and the board of park commission
ers comes forward with the solution
for Paducah.
This does not mean that Paducah's
parks will be sunk in the midst of
plague spots where the better class
OF people can not enjoy them. These
tenement districts do not cover large
areas and all around them are deslr-
able residence streets. The parks will
cause an immediate Improvement in
the sections where they are located
and everyone will find the public
play ground benefit.

The Cure OF Headaches.

Any bone that may be out OF its cor
rect position in the neck or back. 80
as to bring its pressure upon the
'erves which express the pain sense
that is, II the headache happens
to be due to bony slip; but Of course
it may not be at all. That is one
frequent cause, but there are many
others which are apt to be operative
A muscular contraction In the back,
in the neck, or over the head, may
likewise cause headache. lndiges-
ton, eye-strain, mental fatigue. a
sluggish liver. constipation, kidney
disease, and many other things are
frequent causes OF headache. Hence
the cure of headache osteopathlcaliy
Is the cure Of its cause or causes. To
find the remedy these causes, having
as they usually do an anatomical
basis. requires special and thorough
training, and that is why osteopathy
exists as an Independent school OF
medicine. Its practitioners are spec
ialists. They cure headaches, as they
do other diseases not by pulling" a
bone unless a bone needs pulling"
but by finding the cause OF each
special headache and giving that
cause whatever treatment is needed
to cure It. So in a dozen different
headaches none might be treated
alike GEOGRAPHICALLY. and yet ten or
eleven of the dozen would likely be 1
cured.
osteopathy is probably doing more
Tor suffering humanity than any re-
cent discovery, and ! should like for
iou to investigate its merits. II
Ihould be pleased to see all who may

course VIII lose both their money
and their time in the race. Each can.
didate for senator will have to put
up $4,000. Each candidate for gov
ernor will have to bear his pro rata
of a total Of $4,000, the other offices
being graded according to their f.
nancial value In the eyes of the as
pirant. All this is for the nomina-
ton. There is an election coming on.
when more expenses will fall on the
party.
This enormous expense calls for
some remedy. While everyone agrees
with the theory of the popular pri-
mary honestly conducted, the most
enthusiastic advocate can not fail TO
see the wrong in system of popular
expression. which requires the candi-
date to deposit as an entrance fee,
what the average working man
would consider the savings OF a life
time. and a modest competence. The
popular choice might fall on some
poor man. who could not command
such large sum as is demanded of
him to defray the expenses Of the
primary. In that case the popular
choice never would find opportunity
of expression. The expense is an ex-
cellent provision to bar out the poor
man. who has not a wealth produc-
ing machine behind him.
Again, there is every chance for
the corrupt use of big fund under
the present system. and If the COM
mittee II organized against him,
candidates own money may be used
to defeat him. Furthermore. the ex-
penses of the primary and the cleo
ton together may be so great that a
public official will be tempted be-
yond the endurance of many men to
graft off his office: and thus a sys-
TEN, designed in all honesty to sub
serve a righteous purpose, be the
cause OF weak mans downfall and
the states loss.
It's beautiful theory, this pop
ular primary, and the voter feels
that he is taking an active part in
the selection OF his candidate
whether he does or not: so, in fact,
the system does encourage more ac-
tive participation among the rank
and file, which is good thing in It.
self. But. some remedy should be
provided for this inordlnate expense
in nominating candidates. The sug-
gestion that the state bear the ex-
penses of a primary Just as II does
OF the election might meet with OPP
position for a dozen more or less
good reasons; but safeguards could
be provided in that manner, which |
no other plan seems to suggest. At
