garbage systems, and with labora-
tories to which any citizen may
bring water, food, drugs, disease
products or anything else suspect
ed as a danger to his family, for
analysis without personal expense,
is of as much practical Importance
as any court or other official
agency could be. And it is not
worth while to try to do these
things without a health officer
with special training and aptitude
for his work, and such a salary
that he can devote his entire time
to it; for no man can be. the kind
of health officer here described
and practice medicine. The po-
sitions are so incompatible that it
would be just as reasonable to
expect a lawyer to act as judge
and support his family by the
practice of law at the same time.
1t would be the best of invest
ments to provide such compre-
hensive health system everywhere,
as substitutes for the political
make-shifts so generally in vogue,
because the greatest annual tax
upon our people is not that paid
into municipal, county, state and.
national treasures, but the long
unrecognized tax for preventable
sickness and funerals.
With such aims and possibilities
before it, fully realizing the mag
nitude of the reform, the OBJ
stacles, and the self-sacri6cing
labor required to carry it on, the
American Medical Association
with branches reaching in every
state and county, and about &c.,
600 members, joining hands with
all others, individual or organized,
who will take part in it, has
entered upon a broad campaign
of education which it is hoped
will ultimately reach every home
in this land. In the very nature
of it, medical men must lead this
movement in most communities,
and to better qualify them to do
this, a carefully planned post
graduate course, adapted to the
needs of. all schools of practice,
with weekly or more frequent
meetings, and attractive rewards
for those who complete the four
years work, has been placed with
in the reach of the profession of
every county without cost. Thus,
in time it is proposed that an up
to-date doctor will be placed
within reach of every family now
without one and at the same time
leaders for this reform be de-
veloped or encouraged.
In addition to its scientific work
it is proposed that each county
society shall hold joint meetings
with teachers institutes, women's
clubs, editors, lawyers, ministers,
druggists, business, labor and
other organizations, for discussion
and instruction as to matters of
mutual interest. Later, through
teachers and others, the aim will
be to reach every school, child
and family with practical infor-
nation as to the cause and pre-
vention of sickness. In this plan,
the physician is also to be a moral
as we'll as a physical leader of his
people, setting an example of
clean, healthy living in his own
person and home, urging the
same standard of morality for
men and women, and securing the
cooperation of teachers, minis
tiers and druggists in warning the
people, the young especially, of
the dangers of. immortality, habit
producing liquors and drugs, and
all other.things at enmity with
pure living.
AS will be readily seen, this re-
form involves just such a revolu-
t;on in the nractice Of medicine

employ them almost exclusively
to keep them out of the courts.
So, it is only a question of time
and popular intelligence when a
large per cent of my profession
will be acting mainly as medical
advisers for families, to keep them
we'll, instead of the more difficult
and expensive task of treating
them when sick. All sickness
cannot be prevented with present
knowledge, but most of the COM
mon diseases which are destruc-
tive to health and life in children
and young people can, and with
proper aid from governmental
laboratory and research workers,
this list should be constantly ex-
tended,
Do not get the idea that it will
be easy to do all this, or that there
is much real popular interest on
the subject at present. The news
papers are the best opponents of
public sentiment, and are most
friendly to this movement, and SO
long as they give two or three
pages a day to the races, foot and
base ball and the brutalities of
pugilisn, and a fourth of a column
a week to health news, we may be
certain that there is little demand
for the latter. The enlistment
of political economists and teach
ers, in the movement was the first
real encouragement. The inser-
ton of planks in the platforms of
both political parties favoring a
national health policy, and the
campaign of education against
tuberculosis, give promise of good
if supported by systematic, wisely
led lay organization in every
section of the country. such as the
American Health League is fos-
tering.
Whether it will be necessary
for physicians to go into public
life in the interests of these e
forms, as they we're forced to do
in Europe, is a question for the
future. For a century our legis-
lative bodies, state and national,
Mere, dominated by high class
lawyers. Better opportunities are
now open to this class and such
positions are sought by a lower
grade Of lawyers and others who
make a business of politics. With
this change, others have come.
The problems before this country
were never before SO complex or
difficult and, instead of being
legal and for the lawyer, they are
mainly economic, with social and
moral elements, which require a
higher official class for the solu-
ton. Broadly trained business
and literary men, teachers and in
dustrial leaders should certainly
be selected in such numbers that
their voices and votes would be
effective. There is a doctor in
close touch with almost every
voter in this country and it may
be. better for them to assist in
selecting men of the kind indi-
Gated than to go into public life
themselves.
In any event it is an education
al work, and. our profession has
the knowledge which fits and i'm
poses the duty of leadership. 1t
will involve years of unsel6sh
labor, and.all may not be equal
to it. How doctors are to be
compensated under this new order
and whether as many will be
needed, we have not stopped to
inquire. We know that it opens
a new field of unlimited possibili-
ties, that the doctor of the future
will be a far more important and
useful man than the one of today,
and we only ask for such a league
with the people, offensive and de-
fensive, as will insure success in

 A consternation on the faces of Peabody and Stevens as he walked to his seat in the senate. They had failed to succeed in getting Miibank to con- clude and consequently could not push the naval base report through. But they noted the passing of over an hour after their opponents appointed time and had felt certain that he would not appear at all

 But how about our supposed eombi- nation te protect the government that Langdon will tell about?' asked Ste vens. We can't deny that, of course '
 No" answered Peabody. We can't deny it, but we will not affirm 1t. We will tell interviewers that We prefer net to talk about it

 Haines hustled away to get a few mouthfuls Of lunch to fortify himself for busy afternoon-one that was go- iny 10 be far buster than he imagined
 The telephone bell rang at the sena- tors desk. It was Mrs. Spangler's voice that spoke.

 The planter hesitated. then replied. "AIl right: I'll be over, but it mustn't be very long luncheon"
 Gone to eat; back by o'clock" he scratched quickly on a pad on the sec retary's desk and departed
 Mrs. Spangler's luncheons were equally as popular in Washington as senator I.angdons dinners. The Mis- eissppian and his daughters enjoyed the delieacies spread lavishiy before them.
 Time passed quickly. The old plant CT enjoyed seeing his daughters have So happy a time. and he was not insen- eible to the charm of his hostess con ,ersation, for Mrs. Spangler had ktudied carefully the art of ingratiat- ing herself with her guests.
 Suddenly realizing that he had proba- bly reached the limit of the time he reuld spafe. the senator drew out his watch.
 What a stunning fob you wear" quickly spoke Mrs. Spangler. reaching out her hand and taking the watch from her guests hands as the case snapped open.

"A He, her screamed Langdon. fellow Teller will do anything to please Jake. Jake has convinced Teller that Langdon was responsible for the defeat of Gulf City. and the mayor is wild for vevenge."
 .The boss of the senate" rose and walked to the rear of the senate cham. Der to issue orders to two of his col leagues.
 "ieport of the committee on naval affairs" droned the clerk mechanical ly. House bill No. l109 is amended to read as follows"- And his voice sank to an unintelligible humble. for every senator present he well knew was aware that the amendment named Altacoola as the naval base site.
 Senator Langdon rose in his seat
 "Mr. President" he called.
 "Chair recognizes the gentleman from Mississippi" said the presiding onicer as he leaned back to speak to Senator Winans of Kansas, who had approache to the side of the rostrufa.
 The Langdon speech on "The New South and the South of the Future proved more than document suited only to a reverent burial in the Con gressional Record Although wearied at the start owing to the exciting hap penings of the day. the Mlssissippian' $ enthusiasm for his cause gave him strength and stimulation as he pro cressed His voice rose maJestically as he came to the particular points he wished 10 accentuate. and even those iD the uppermost rows in the galleries could hear his every word.
 Al the close of his formal speech he began on his statement of the action of the naval affairs committee in buy ing control of Aitacooia land to foil attempts to rob the government As he had predicted, the senate did "sit up" The senate did agree that new kind of politics had arrived
 During this latter part of the speech many curious giances were directed at Peabody and Stevens, who sat in the same tier of seats in the middle of the chamber, only an aisle separating them. Through this choice of seats they could confer without leaving their places Various senatorial associates of these two men in other deals found it difficult to believe their ears-but was not old Langdon at this moment narrating the amazing transaction on the floor of the senate? Would the statue on the pedestal step down ! Would the sphinx of the desert speak the story of the lost centuries! Would honor take the place of expediency in the affairs of states What might not happen. thought the senate machine. now that Peabody and Stevens had taken to their bosems what they termed the purple pup Of political purity
