CFrom a san Correspondent.l

LINCOLN, Neb., May 12-(Special Tele-
gram)-In an address to the State Medl-
cal association DIR. ]. B. Greene. formerly
superintendent of the Lincoln asylum, but
now of Illinois, said the Nebraska laws for
the administration of charitable institutions
were the most anticipated in the country.
DR.. Greene urged a board of control to
be secured by an amendment to the state
constitution. Civil service rules should then
govern the employees Of the different in
stitutions. The afternoon was given over
principally to a discussion of spinal menin-
gifts, which affected certain portions of
the state last year. The nominating COM
mittee will report tomorrow morning and
it Is not improbable that DR.. b. P. Lord
of Omaha will be endorsed for president
of the association.

Roosevelt. Critics wrong.

oMAHA, Neb., May 1o-To the Editor Of
The Bee: There seems to have been much
erroneous and useless criticism of Mr..
Roosevelt's utterances about what is called
race suicide.
He is man OF broad views and in
speaking Of propagation as national poll
icy he did not have In mind particular
persons or families, On reflection any in
telligent person can see that If a nation
maintains a vigorous existence for a great
length OF time It must do so by one or
both Of two ways; propagation or assin-
ilation Mr., Roosevelt has either failed TO
recognize assimilation in this connection
or has formed the opinion that 1t alone Is
not efficacious and reliable. And who will
say that such an opinion is not correct?
OF course it Is implied that the rising
generation should be strong in body and
mind, and morally sound. Mr.. Roosevelt
is a great advocate Of righteous force.

Lazy Liver

At this time of the year the system
has clogged up, the pores are closed,
the blood is thin and the circulation
is poor. You have no energy for bus
mess or pleasure. You suffer from
headaches and sleeplessness. Your
skin is yellow and your tongue is
coated. Food does little good. All
these indicate that your liver is not
doing its work and the bile is not be-
ing carried off. You need something
to awaken the liver.

Prof. ]. Howard Gore, one Of the prom
inent scientists of Washington, and HIS
wife, Lillian Gore. have just been deco
rated by King Charles of Roumania in
recognition Of services given that Euro
pean country several years ago.
Prof. Gore has received the order Of
the Crown of Roumania, grade Of grand
officer. and Mrs. Gore the order of meri-
torious service, first class. The decora-
tons, deliberately executed gold and sill
yer medals, bearing the crown of Rou-
mania and Roumanian inscriptions were

Introduced Corn Into Roumania.
Prof. Gore was decorated for having
introduced into Roumania a variety of
American corn, now one of the thriving
crops Of that country, and Mrs. Gore for
having spent several weeks in Bucharest
giving public demonstrations of how to
prepare the corn meal so as to avoid the
dangers Of pellagra, which in that coun-
try, is a prevalent disease, ascribed to
the consumption of musty corn.
The decorations came complete
surprise to Prof. and Mrs. Gore. The
services had been given several years
official recognition In the form Of GER
tificates.
During the Paris exposition in 1900 a
member of the Roumanian ministry Of
agriculture became particularly interested
In an exhibit of American corn. and
thought it might be grown to advantage
in his own country. Some time later he
wrote to Prof. Gore, asking him for ad-
vice on the subject
After much correspondence and in
quiries at the Department of Agriculture
Prof. Gore selected a variety of corn
! which he thought suited the soil and
climate of Roumania. He sent many
bushels of the seed corn, and several
| barrels of the corn meal to illustrate
how 1t is ground. to the Roumanian min
lister Of agriculture
The corn proved to be especially suited
to the Roumanian soil and large crops
of 1t were grown. The people, however,
did not seem to understand how to pre-
pare the corn meal. and the government
in 1905 asked Mrs. Gore. who was in
Europe with her husband, to give some
demonstrations of receapts for the prepa-
ration of corn meal.
Mrs. Gore went to Bucharest and for
two weeks devoted her time to demon
