MEDICINE ON THE UPROAD
by Greatly Improved
Health.

From most, II not quite ever viewpoint
there is unquestionably much difference
between the medicine Of fifty or sixty
years ago and the medicine OF today
medicine in the sixth decade OF the nine
teenth century and medicine In the first
decade OF the twentieth century.
In other days, in this country at least
upon a fair English education. recog-
nized preceptors nonsworn certificate OF
three years study. friendly evidence OF
moral character, two four months terms
Of lectures At a chartered school, and a
perfunotory examination, the M. d. was
generally obtainable by all free men; now,
with legal standards constantly advan-
cling, the full equivalent Of a high school
training, nonbiased evidence Of four years
study and good morals. four eight months
courses, some clinic experiences and many
strict examinations are rulably demanded
therefor.
Then very few, il indeed any. legal
restrictions here existing, all free non
graduates might unreservedly practice the
country over, a medical diploma usually
ovidencing only collegiate recognition Of
professional fitness; now, while neither
medical teaching Tor clinic experience, to
say naught OF any diplomas Is often pre-
requisite, every state carefully registers
under divers enactments, all practitioners.
Then diagnosis was necessarily inferred
for the most part from subjective symp-
toms; now, through precise instruments
that explore every organ, It is easily based
in the main on objective.
Then blistering and bleeding, salivatlng
and sweating and purginE. however hos
tile, we're everywhere and everywise en-
Rloged; now mild mediamenta, enerRizing
Electricity ana palatable pharmacists, con-
3ervedly chosen, are unreservedly and un-
derstandingly used.
Then instrumental surgery, especially
plastic, caval and orthopedio, was de-
cidedly limited: now every part is opera
lively treated with marked success.
Then the insane were quelled chiefly by
mechanical restraint; now they are gov
erned by moral suasion.

WONDERS OF NEWEST RAILROAD

At many points on the line OF the new
Western Pacific railroad from Salt Lake
city TO San Francisco. there was not room
enough In the canyon for both river and
railroad, and solid walls OF masonry had to
be built to carry the tracks above the
stream. At other points the sharp curves
IN the canyon have sent the tracks back
ana forth from one side to the other on
steel bridges and high tresties. In build

Squash Season
Promises to Be
Very Lively One
Racquet Club Courts Done Over and
New Players Enlisted--WOuld
Bring Chicago Here.

Omahas season Of squash for the year
1910 promises to be tho livelest Il has un-
dergone since the game was first intro
duoed IN this city. Although the season
proper does not start for some time yet,
the players OF that strenuous sport are al
ready getting themselves into the right
form for little practice.
The Omaha Racquet club. which is the
home OF squash In Omaha, has had its
courts done over this summer and has a
right TO be proud OF them in their present
condition. The courts are OF wood and
arc the largest IN the west. They are
modelled after those Of the Boston Squash
club. which are accounted the best in the
United States.
II possible, the omaha club wants TO set
the Chicago players here for the annual
tournament between the two organizations.
As the last years tournament was held
on the Chicago courts, IL is probable that
the event will be held IN Omaha this sea-
SON.
On the Omaha lineup this season there
are several good possibilities besides the
famous Kennedy, known to the squash
world as spike" Eddie Creighton, Mosher
Colpetzer. Robert Burns, William Hughes
and Harry wilkinson win all be in the
game. Two new men VINO may JOIN tht
ranks Of the big players this year are
Arthur Scribner, the Omaha tennis cham
plon and Johnny Madden once rightfielder
for Yale Both arc reokone6 on to be-
come fast men before the season Of boil
closes.
Enthusiasm for the game is higher and
more general this year than It has ever
been before" said Kennedy. in speaking
of the coming events. we may not have
any more players out ON the floor than
1 before, but we will certainly have larger
gallery, as everyone is taking an interest
this year.
"Since the Omaha club has been closed
Tor the purpose Of redeoorating It many
of the men of that club who generally
spent some spare dEne there have spent
more time at the Racquet club. We also
have a number Of the local army officers
who have Joined this season. We may
| find players among them.
"Of course It takes a pretty active man
to play squash, as It is a lively game Il
is just as hard as entering a ring and en-
gaging in a boxing match, the only diff
ference being that the players in squash
are punching a ball instead Of punching
each other. 1t takes man with a real
prizefighter's punch TO play squash"

RHEUMATISM


Rheumatism is due to a diseased
condition of the blood cells and cor
puscles, brought about by an excess
of uric acid in the circulation. II is
not only very painful disease but an
extremely dangerous trouble. The
briuy, acrid state of the blood gradu-
ally forms a coating over the muscles,
and by depositing a cement-iike sub
stance in the joints frequently terni-
mates fatally, or leaves its victim a
hopeless cripple. It Is natural to
doctor the spot that hurts, and It is
quite right to use iiniments, hot appli-
cations, etc, to get temporary relief
from a painful joint or swollen tendon;
but Rheumatism is not skin disease,
and such things, when depended ON

ease gets a firmer hold on the blood.
