EASIER TO PREVENT

Most physicians are agreed that the
best way to-combat most ills is by the
indirect method, of stimulating the
body's natural powers in lighting and
destroying the germs of disease CON
sumption, for example, is much easier
to prevent than it is to cure, and
throughout the land a determined
warfare is being waged to lessen the
danger of infection by this insidious
disease. Coughs and colds are pro-
life source and should not be neg
lected.
At the first sign of cold. steps
should be taken to check it at once
and this can best be done with SIM
pie mixture Of two ounces of Glycer-
inc. half-ounce of Virgin Oil of Pine
compound pure and eight ounces OF
pure Whisky. These can be mixed
together in a large bottle Shake Well
and take a teaspoonful every four
hours. 1t is claimed My the Leach
Chemical company of Cincinnati, who
prepare the Virgin Oil of Pine COM
pound pure for dispensing through
druggists. that this mixture will break
up a cold in twenty-four hours and
cure any cough that is durable,

WOMAN CARRIED FIFTY
FEET ON CAR FENDER
But for Precautionary Equipment
Mrs. George w. May Would
Have Been Crushed

Mrs. George w. May. 2123 d street
EIdendale, had u narrow escape from
death last night, when she was struck
and carried fifty feet on he fender
of an outbound Edendale car. AS a
result of the collision with the car she
suffered a spran of the right ankle
and had the novel experience of a ride
on the fender of an electric car.
The incident showed the necessity
of car tenders, for if the car had not
been properly equipped Mrs. May
would have been crushed to death.
In company with her husband, Mrs,
May was standing at Sixth and Main
streets waiting for an Edendale car
Mrs. May became interested in the
strains of the Salvation army band,
nearby, and stepped directly in front
of a passing car
As the car struck her she was lifted
by the fender and carried fifty feet
before the car was brought to stop.
She was treated at the Pacific Electric
hospital and found to be suffering
more from shock than bodily injuries
and was able to go to her home after
her ankle had been bandaged

Fraud in Weights and Measures.

Among an astonishing proportion OF
dealers, both in Wholesale and retail,
the familiar units of measure have be-
come merely figures Of speech. Under
a lax administration Of the law, pounds,
pints and yards have grown more and
more elastic, limited only by the con.
science Of the tradesman and the cred
ulity of the customer. So general has
this deception become, so much a mat
ter Of course, that today many leading
merchants and commercial exchanges
actually defend short-measuring and
short-weighing as an established trade
custom, and argue. in all seriousness,
that to return to the old standards
would disorganize trade.
1t has been found that more than
two-thirds of all the scales used in New
York are three per cent fast" or
worse. The minimum deception Of

Automobile Idiots.
ExGoy Hoard

kAFh0At lthftA
The driver OF an automobile collided
with street car in Milwaukee and all
the occupants were seriously injured
1t is wonder they were not killed
Many others are being killed every day
in this country. Bot the driver of this
automobile puts up the silly plea that
he couldn't control his machine and so
the collision was inevitable Here is
the question that will cut through the
whole blamed idiocy that is causing this
injury and loss Of life: Why are the
drivers going so fast that they cannot
control their machines? Automobiles
tearing along through crowded streets
at railroad speed Think Of it Then
think Of the American people submit
ting TO this inundation of swarm Of
speed crazed idiots to work up this har-
vest Of death. The automobiles are
destroying life and good roads at a rate
that ought to evoke the severest kind
of legislation.
We suggest a law forblddlng ma
chime TO be sold that can go over y
miles an hour. That will strike at the
very root of the evil. Certain it is that
the public cannot trust to the good
sense Of the drivers of automobiles to
run their machines at rate that they
can control them When such a condi-
ton occurs, it is time for the law to
step in and prescribe what sort Of a
machine these lunatics shall use.
