Organize to Study RadIum.

The Radium Institute Of America
was formed at meeting in the
building OF the New York Yacht club
recently. The purpose is to study rad
ium, discover any radioferous de-
posits in the United States, and buy
quantities Of 1t in Europe for clini-
cal use in the United States. 1t Is the
idea of the founders to establish a
clinic in connection with some New
York hospital, where radium treat
ment will be administered free to
those needing 1t. The institute will
take steps to protect the public from
the false claims of patent medicine
manufacturers that certain Of their
remedies contain radium, and will
set standard that those desiring
to deal in radium commercially will
have to live up to. DR.. Charles F.

The Mail Order Evil.

The man who buys his goods of a
mail order house and expects his
neighbor to buy goods of him or to
buy labor of him, is economically a
leach, says the Emporia, Kansas,
Gazette. He is sucking Industrial
blood out of the town and gives none
back. He scuds his profits out of
town like a Chinaman, and has no
more right to standing in the COM
munity than Chinaman. We are all
neighbors industrially in this town,
and the man who sends away for his
goods is not one of US. He is of
another industrial system and de-
serves no mans support in Emporia
"The fact that this is economically
wrong is recognized by the mail
order houses themselves. They pro-
tect their customers as thieves by
offering to keep people from knowing
where the mail order goods come
from. The mail order houses have no
tags on their goods. They say in
their catalogues that none Of their
goods are marked where bought. If
1t is proper to hide the place Of pur-
chase of an article it is wrong to
buy the article at that place. Only
the man who steals is ashamed to
say where he got anything he has.
There is such thing as tainted
dry goods, tainted groceries and
tainted furniture. All Of such that
are not bought at home, Of men who
befriended you. to men who you owe
living, are tainted because they
come unfairly.
1T is time to change and get to-
gether. 1t is time to reform our
selves and not our neighbors, by buy
ing everything at home. whether the
neighbors do or not. And now is the
time to begin"
