REAL STATE OF
EUTHANASIA
HUMANE TO DEPRIVE DEATH OF
PAIN AND TERROR.

In the current issue of the New
York Medical Journal, says the New
York Herald, is very sensible edi-
torial on the question of euthanasia
treated from a strictly professional
point of view. Taking the legitimate
ground that the business of the physi-
clan is to prevent disease. cure it
when it is possible to do so, to al
leviate suffering and to prolong life,
it is perfectly admissible in case of
death to make the last
hours as comfortable and as free
from suffering as may be possible.
The editorial very frankly and judi
ciously says: 1T is only humane to
try to deprive death of its pains and
terrors, but to do so is vastly diff
'erent thing from killing a person
Certainly all will agree
With such view, as well as that
which maintains that under no cir
does reputable physi- |
ian do anything to cut life short, as
e would be a murderer if he did"

AN ODD WORLD
(Pittsburg Dispatch.)


An old gentleman in Tennessee has
scattered $4,000 in small change
through fear that he might be muir
dered for his money He lost his
faith in banks because his sole de-
posit many years ago was paid out
on a check. There ought to be a
moral to this item of the nights news.
Likely there is. Someone may find
it in the Injunction against laying up
treasures in this vale of tears, and
some may find it in the folly of scat
tering what has been saved. Every
one as his light shineth. To one the
odd part of the tale is that man of
81 years should begin to value his
remnant of life at more than the saw
ings of his years. This man cannot
have long to live. His 100000 might
have made easy what years remain
to him. yet all of sudden he is seized
by the fear that someone may take
his life in his feeble age for the coin
he spent his strength In accommodating
