Mrs. MARY EDDY, founder, of the
Christian Scientists religion, died at
her home in Boston Saturday, Dec.
3rd. The immediate cause Of death
was pneumonia according to the re
port of the district medical examiner.
The passing of Mrs. Eddy removes
from the great stage character of
world wide prominence. 1t matters
not how many regard her religious
teachings as wrong, many have be-
lieved in them and are better for the
belief, for perhaps they would have
had little or no belief at all if it had
not been for the attraction, to them,
of Mrs. Eddy's doctrines. Every man
and woman is the better for having
some religious belief that makes for
right living, and Mrs. Eddy supplied
that which some needed

In infantile paralysis, DR.. HI. w.
Hill of the Minnesota state board of
health does not believe that the pres
ent popular alarm is justified. In a
recent paper on the subject, he says
that the danger from half dozen
different diseases equally to be en-
countered everywhere, is greater, and
that only one children's disease
cerebro spinal meningitis fewer
cases to its credit. Dr. Hill says that
if parents were equally alarmed about
summer diarrhea, three times as many
children could be saved. He also ex-
pressed the opinion that infantile
paralysis is not communicated from
one human being TO another, while
the evidence shows that it comes

IT is reported from Washington
that President Taft will send speci
al message 10 congress some time
during the winter urging Postmaster
General Hitchcock's pet scheme of
removing the 10000 first and second
class postmasters from the pie list to
the civil service list. If that is ac-
complished it is planned TO place
under civil service many more posi-
tions that are now counted as political
pie. The placing of the 10000 post
masters under civil service would take
from the congressman about all the
patronage they now have at their dis
posal, and for that reason it probably
will not be done We can see no
good reason for civil service rules in
this connection, although it would
not result in poorer service, even If it
did not improve it, If the offices
were placed on the civil service list
and the postmasters given prac-
tically life job, the salary at
tached should be considerably reduc-
ed. The present salary schedule is
considerably higher than the same

The government is still after Patton
and few others for running tina!
cotton corner year ago. The men
have pleaded mot guilty and the
case will come up for hearing in
January. The whole proceeding lis
like watch dog barking at a flea
bite while burglars ransact the house
Patten and associates made a few
thousand, it is true, but while they
were doing that the cotton manufac
turer's trust was, and is now, robbing

handsome profit every year if it will
only divert attention from the cotton
schedule and the cotton trust.

Introduced which had for its object
the regulation of this business, but
the bill now sleeps in some pigeon
hole. Whether it will be dug up at
this session we do not know. But
the cold storage business has got to

Few people realize to what enormous
proportions this business has grown
More than any one thing it is re-
sponsible for the high cost of food
products which has prevailed the past
few years. There has been no scarcity
of meats, poultry, butter, eggs, fruits,
ETC., except such as has been made by
the withdrawal of produce from the
open market, which withdrawal is
made possible by cold storage. AT
the time the bill spoken of was intro
duced in congress there were 636 cold
storage houses in this country and
they contained food products to the
value of $2,5OO,OO0,0O00O. Can the
reader comprehend these figuers7
They mean there were $500 worth of
food products for every man, woman,
