OF getting it to America. Mr.. Peary
says that he cannot conceive of a
man leaving things Of such import
ance ''in the hands of stranger"
The remark is curiously Illuminating.
DR.. Cooks conduct throughout has
been that of man who trusts others
and expects to be trusted. He seems
to have promptly sized up Mr.. Whit
ney as straightforward, dependable
man, and all that has come to light
about the New Haven sportsman has
justified that confidence. People
who trust others are not necessarily
worse judges of character than the
cynical and suspicious-they often
make trustworthy friends offhand.
And on the other hand those who
say In their haste that all men are
liars often have subsequent trouble
in getting their evidence together.
DIP. Cook will no. be blamed Tor leav-
ing his things with a stranger, nor is
1t Whitneys fault if they are not
now available.
a However good Peary's case may be

to both sides, is compelled to admit

every possible way. His every word,
his every act has strengthened the
position of his rival. His proofs may
be crushing, but the public has alb
solutely nothing of them but his re-
iterated assertion, bespeaking a conf
dence which in the event of failure
to prove his case must in all charity

which his yielding to very natural
anger has lef: him. Produce your

his rival. Very well, where are the
proofs? Buried in the frozen north.
By whom? By Peary. If anyone
should choose to say that he made
the challenge precisely because he
knew the proofs to be out of reach,
has he anyone to blame but himself?
It is to be said in his behalf that his
very blunders show headstrong tenn
per rather than calculated attempt
to discredit his rival; he has left
nothing undone that could hurt his
own case.

INDIANA GOVERNOR ON TAFT

Marshall Says President Is Supplying
Democratic Campaign Material.
Chicago, Oct. Ex-Governor Thomas
R. Marshall of Indiana in an interview
here said:
President Taft is making the best
kind OF campaign material for the
Democrats. In his speech on the shin
subsidy he remarked that some people
criticised the plan on the ground that
it afforded governmental interference
in favor OF certain private shipping in,
terests, and added that the same critl.
cism might as well be directed against
tariff legislation.

cal Observation-Disclosures Shows
That Many Patent Preparations
Hurt the Circulation and Discovery
Is Made That In Some Gases Death
Has Been Caused.
Washington, Oct. 5.-The attention
Of the department of agriculture has
been repeatedly directed to the gener.
al sale and use of harmful headache
mixtures. These complaints led the
department to make a very thorough
investigation. with the result that a
warning to the public against the use
of the headache medicines on the mar.
ket has been issued.
1t was brought out that there are on
record S14 cases of poisoning by these
drugs, twenty-nine of which proved
fatal.
The departments warning points
out that acetanilid, antipyrin and phe
nacetin are very commonly used in the
preparation of mixtures intended for
the relief of headache and other minor
aches and pains. In urging persons
not to use these drugs unless they are
prescribed by physician, the depart
ment says that the unfavorable
symptoms produced by the drugs af-
feet principally the heart and circula-
tion and through them other parts CT
the body.
The three drugs, according to the
warning, were after their discovery
for long time used exclusively for
tho reduction of fever, but as time
went on they were employed less and
less for this purpose, because of their
weakening effects. They gradually
came to be used more and more as a
remedy against pain.
The department says that the public
does not seem to realize that these
drugs are poisons in the true sense of
the word
