IS CONSUMPTION INHERITED?
Opinion of a Prominent BaCierlOI
OgiSt Given al a Recent Lecture al
Harvard College.

Prof. III. G. Earnest i'm recent lee
ture before Harvard Medical School
discussed this theory at length. lie
claims that consumption is not an in
herited disease, and that the children
of parents who have had tuberculosis
are as likely to grow up strong and
healthy as children Of parents who
have not. Dr. Earnest further claims
that the cardinal means for curing
this dread disease are plenty Of fresh
air, sufficient nutritious food, rest and
exercise.
For centuries physicians everywhere
have recognized the value Of cod liver
oil in the treatment Of consumption
and allwasting disease, but unfortun
ately few could take it with benefit o
account Of the indigestible oil. !
Vinol has solved this problem. 1t is
the modern cod liver preparation with
out oil, made by = scientific, extractive
and concentrating process from fresh
Gods livers, combining with pepton-
ate Of iron, all the medicinal, healing
and bodybuilding elements of cod liv-
or oil, but no oil or grease. As
specific for all throat and lung trouble
and as a strength creator and body
builder Ninol is unexcelled. Try il

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President Roosevelt threw a bomb
shell into Congressional ranks on last
Friday in the form Of special mes
sage. Evidently it was penned under
excitement, and dictated in part at
least by spirit of resentment. He
seems 10 have grown tired of adverse
criticism Of his conduct in dealing with
business conditions and takes this oc-
casion TO strike back. TO say that it
il, strenuous" is to put it mildly. The
effect upon the Republicans in Con-
gress was of a stunning nature, and
they haven't as yet recovered from the
shock. VIM. Jennings Bryan was de-
lighted with il because ii was genuine
Democratic, and so was Bourke Cock
raue, while the Democrats, as a body,
applauded while il was being read.
The message really contains no new
thought but is an animated review Of
what former messages had contained
with an emphatic personal-vindication
attachment. His enemies in his own
party say il means a bid for the third
term, others that it is a Taft move
ment. Whatever the motive for its
production, it makes interesting
Democratcreading, and ifthey haven't
sense enough to take advantage Of the
situation, they don't deserve to win.
SO far as we are concerned, we thank
yop. Mr. President, for the "hot stuff
ON The samemorning there appeared
iu the papers am elaborate speech OF
Governor Hughes, of New York, in
which ne outlined his position as can
didate for the presidency. Though he
differs with Mr.. Roosevelt as to many
things, he pays him a handsome COM
plment, and this may make amends
for differences.
The fact j, both are politicians and
though they should be "busy to the
brim' as President and Governor still
they find time TO 'play politics, and
what they say may be taken with
many grains Of allowance.
How easy il is 10 talk, and it isn't
much more trouble to write, and all
political aspirants talk and write pleas
ant things and are profuse with pro-
misses.
Still bomb has bursted in Republi- |
Fan ranks and Democrats should see |
10 lt that others follow and continue
TO follow until the enemy has been
routed and driven from the field.

The Supreme Court at Washington
has recently decided that master
may discharge a servant from his EN-
ployment, and in our opinion to have
decided otherwise would have been
the extreme of folly. The servant re-
serves the high privilege Of retiring al
his own free will, and it is poor rule
that doesn't work both ways. And
the mere fact that the workers belong
to labor organization no wise affects
the merits Of the question involved.
