The Immunity Bath.

No one likes the immunity bath, but
when a thing is necessary, liking OF
disliking cuts no figure. 1t is a way
the law prescribes for discovering
graft If there was some other way
as efficient, the government would not
resort to this method. But it is the
only way left by which the people
may protect themselves against fraud
and thieyery. 4, r>
There are abundantsinstances where
corruption has been exposed through
this process. Most of the rottenness in
Pittsburg was uncovered by men blow
ing on their partners in crime. 1t
makes no difference what their motive
is. whether high or low, if what they
tell sustains an honest suspicion and
fits in with the circumstances sur
rounding the event, that is all that is
desired.
There must be some way to get at
the fraud that seems to prevail in
every direction. 1t is the duty OF the
hour to crush this enemy that threat
ems the very life of the nation. To do
this, any weapon that is handy must
be used. It is no time to be particular
about the method, so we get at the
truth.-Ohio State Journal.

Not an Alarmiat

A cartoon which one may appreciate
for its fun even if one does not agree
with the view of the President there
expressed, is reprinted from Puck in
the Literary Digest. An ordinary
nickel alarm clock is adorned with a
presidential sIaile, and out of the lips
the minute hand points toward the
close OF the first year, the face being
divided into four year sections. The
alarm bell on top is labelled "Roose-
welt policies" A tiny ladder at the
side shows perturbed Uncle Sam
thrusting an inquiring head under the
bell, seeking the cause of silence.
The whole is labeled, 1.-THE False.
Alarm. Set. for March. 4, 1909, and
hasn't gone off yet" Our Presidents
face lends itself to caricature even as
readily as his predecessors Eyes
wrinkled shut with mirth and an extra
chin or two below the broad smiling
mouth-we know at once the pacific
governor of the Philippines and the
equally pacific incumbent of the chair
on the Atlantic seaboard, who means
TO pour oil on troubled waters when
waiting calm is desirable; but who
does not finch from outriding a storm
of popular protest when he has found
his true course.

Boys and the Farm.

And old farmers two sons were
anxious to leave the farm and work
out their destiny in the city. The far
mer wanted to keep the boys on the
farm. Sc he sent them to an agricul-
tural college, one to learn plant breed
ing and general agriculture, and the
other to take a course in animal hus-
bandry.
The result of this experiment was
that each boy took a great fancy TO
his speciality and great interest in
the knowledge of it, The science of
farming is very attractive. 1t lets one
into a knowledge of the beautiful laws
of nature, and gives charm to all his
work This is the way to knock out
the drudgery of farm life and give on
broad views.
The agricultural college is today
our greatest public institution. II
takes much of the drudgery out Of
farm work by putting intelligence in
il. The farmer is a real producer, the
real benefaetor in trade and COM
merce, and it is more sensible TO en-

mo child several weeks old that had
never been washed; the only cleans

Eskimo together undertook the task
of spring cleaning the poor lit e

was delighted to see her child look
ing SO nice, and, far from being of

thanks. l never heard that the baby
was cross or that it cried more after
that much-needed Tubing.
Someone will probably exclaim.
"But how cam a baby possibly thrive
in so much dirt and filth?" Yet they
do thrive. and it is surprising what
chubby, fat-faced babies one sees
among the heather Eskimo.

through his invention a legitimate
opening for larger living?
! Modern civilization differs from
that of former periods chiefly by
reason of swifter travel and COM
munication. Those have changed his
tory and made the character alike
of nations and of individuals radio
ally distinct from what they would
otherwise have been.
From prehistoric times the idea Of
eliminating the horse and the don
| key as hauling powers took posses
| sion of imaginative minds. The
horseless vehicle was a recurring
dream, which at various times found
more or less definite expression on
paper, though not in fact.
The automobile is simply a mani
! festation of tine forces of evolution
that are working out the worlds
need, and its appearance, in this
sense, is no more remarkable than
was the advent of discoveries in
other essential elements of civilization
The commercial phases of the auto
mobile are practically unlimited. The
world wants labor saving devices.
The automobile is one From the
first the automobile has been the butt
of prejudice and doubt. No invention
of modern times has had a more
bitterly presented antagonism Co
overcome. The industry founded on
an irresistible demand was not, how
ever, to be destroyed by the unthink-
ing skepticlsm of men.
| 1t is quite safe to say that no
thing has done so much to educate
the man in the street on mechanical
matters TO anything like the extent
for which the automobile is RESPONSE
BILE. Further, it has done more to
arouse an enthusiastic interest in and
desire for information on technical
matters on the part of the average
layman than have the combined in
ventive results of 4 quarter of a
century of the most marvellous prog
ress the world has ever seen. Who
is going TO measure the benefit of
this with a yardstick?
The business man now uses his
car from his home to his Office IN

| ing of the train, and arrives with
his senses fresh and alert and a
clear brain 10 tackle the days work

the old enforced custom of the com
muter, reaching home jaded and
tired after jerky rail journey, he
has enjoyed a run which has recuper-
ated his energies and finds himself
| fit for what the evening may bring.
, The cars beneficial influence is in
many other respects far reaching.
One can point in particular to the
growing tendency among town folf
to seek the open country during week
ends and the health-giving pastimes
of rural life, rather than the enervat-
ing routine pleasures of the town.
A wave of craving for simple out
door pursuits is passing over the
country in growing strength, and 1t
IS not difficult to trace the impetus
to the automobile. This is not a
trivial fact, but a great economical
one. Witness alone the evolution of
the country club, one of the few
mediums of our modern complex life
life giving a maximum of desirable
and normal social intercourse at rea-
sOnable expenditure.
There is no question that change
has overtaken the entire country as
result of the economical, reliable
car. So much for that. And it must
not be forgotten that because of the
automobile each year there are spent,
aside from the capital directly en-
/ puoyed, hundreds of millions of dol
lars to every farmer, hotel keeper or
industrial worker in the nation re-
ceiving his portion of expenditure
for the use of the hundreds of thou
sands of cars now running in this
country. The lesson reads Itself.

Cubic Existence.

There has been too little reflection
On the future which he aeroplane has
made possible. We refuse TO think
how vast a new world will opened
when aerial travel becomes common;
bow vast must be the changes which
it will introduce in our habits, ideas
and institutions. When man becomes
an inhabitant of a third dimension,
life will be thing enlarged, widened
and enriched beyond all present con-
ception-life will be cube where 1t
is now square. Imagination seems
too faint-hearted TO allow itself to
contemplate the time in which the
abode of man shall not be alone the
surface of the earth. Yet that time is
at hand.

Vacuum Cleaners for the Street.

1t has remained for Philadelphia
woman to propose that a system OF
vacuum cleaning be applied to the
paved streets of cities. Why not?
The plan which has proved so salts
factory in houses could easily be
adapted to street use. Manufacturers
would soon provide the necessary
machinery once there was demand
for it, and the result ought to be a
great Improvement in cleanliness.
Street sweeping, as at present con-
Quoted, whether by machinery or hand
brooms, scatters almost as much dust
through the atmosphere as it removes
in the other way, while vacuum clean
ing gathers it all UP. f.'
