Lioht as a Curative,

The value of light as an agent in
curing diseases is becoming increas-
ingly recognized. The latest devel-
opment of the idea is the assertion of
n medical man that the clothes worn
by consumptives should be of color
which will allow the light to penetrate
the body. White materials. 1t is
found. are the best for this purpose
and consumptives are consequently
advised to clothe themselves in snowy
raiment. either of linen, velvet. cot
ton or cloth. Silk, however. is barred.
Next in curative value comes blue.

terials of black, red. yellow or green
are said to be useless, as they pre-

Ninj. Sauvalle declared that the maid

from the poor, shabby woman. who

longs to have dressed like the babies
of her well-to-do neighbors, to the
woman of apparent wealth, who has

One day not long ago a 14-year old
girl brought in a dirty little baby and
said the child was lost. The baby
spent the afternoon peaceably sleep
ing on the big quilt the matrons keep
for the purpose, and about five o'clock
a man came in and asked the matron:
Have you got for me baby?"
The matron assured him that she

fed and the man started off with 1t.
complacently. when the matron asked
where his wife was that she had left
the child uncalled for all afternoon.
She had gone out, the man answered.
and she had telephoned to him at his
place of work over in Manhattan to
call at the police station on his way
home to get the babe. The man was
told very plainly that the next time
his wife wanted to go shopping she
was not to send her baby to the police
stations as nursery.

&c opinion as to public men would
certainly not destroy or even check
Anarchism.
There was and Is much more TO
be said In favor OF those restrictions
on immigration which are intended
TO shut out foreign anarchists from
our shores, and il was undoubtedly
well to arm the Federal Executive
with wider powers to deport or 9TH
erwise rid the country of disloyal or
turbulent aliens, whether these call
themselves Anarchists or not.
THE fewer of such people We
have In our midst the better, and,
although / do not believe 1t will ever
prove practicable to slam the door in
the face of anything like all of them,
all that we can bar out will be so
much gain. But, while we may thus
reduce the number of our Anar-
chists, 1t is sadly certain that we
cannot thus get rid of anarchism.
We have now a homemade brand or
the article, and, although the origi-
nal plant of this infant industry
was undoubtedly imported, the do
nestle product is large enough to
gravely trouble us.
con Anarchists the death penalty
should be unequivocally imposed by
law and inflexibly executed when
ever the prisoner has sought, direct
ly or indirectly, to take life For Of
fences of less gravity | advise com
paratively brief but very vigorous
imprisonment, characterized by COM
plete seclusion, deprivation of all
comfort and denial of any form or
distraction, and which could be to
my mind advantageously supple
mented by a sever but not a public
whipping. The lash of all punish
ments, most clearly shows the culprit
that he suffers for what his fellow
men hold odious and disgraceful,
and not merely for reasons of public
policy.
"Any abridgement from fear of the
Anarchists of that freedom of speech
and of the press guaranteed us by
our State and Federal constitutions
would be neither wise nor a wor-
thy policy; but these privileges in no
wise shield councillors of crime or
instigators Of disorder and rebellion.
ANY changes, however. sweeping,
in our laws and government how
ever wild or grotesque, advanced to
justify them, provided the method OF
change be orderly and lawful; but
published writing recommending
the murder of the Chief Magistrate
and the violent overthrow of the
Government is a seditious libel al
common law, and there is no good
reason why public utterance of spo-
ken words of the same purport
should not be made like offence by
statue.

condition of success in Kidding oui

that American public opinion should
