THE DOCTORS TRUST

Under the recent state supreme
court decision the old school doc
tors have the exclusive right to kill
or cure the sick. The Pueblo
Chieftain Of July IA has q very
sound and fair criticism Of this
decision, from which We quote
briefly:
THE direct effect of the decision
is to place all persons who "heal"
as n means OF livlihood under the
supervision Of the state board OF
medical examiners. The effect at
the present time is unjust and un.
fair. The board is controlled by
the old school of practitioners
whose membership for years has
been trying to hamper medical
advancement except along its own
line Of thought. To say that q
Christian Science practitioner
should be compelled to secure .
license from an allopathic examin.
ing board Is not absolutely just.
The state medical board in its
attempt to compel our people to
take only the pills Of allopaths has
cost the state more money and
more trouble than any other pro-
fession. Every session Of our
court finds them trying TO send
some fellow to PRISON because he
has q remedy for the cure Of some
disease that has not met their O.
X.
AT last they have succeeded In
getting q supreme court rendition
apparently making them al power
full. The Chieftain predicts that
the opinion 10 but the beginning
Of an era In Colombo when oil men
who honestly seek 70 heal the sick,
no matter BY what process, will
stand on an equal legal footing
and that the decision 10 but the
first toll Of the funeral dirgs Of
one medical school power for, now
that The law hes bssn construed,

As is the case with all very ancient
practices. the origin of fasting Is OBJ
scure. Herbert Spencer gives us to
understand that the custom arose out
of the habit of providing refreshments
for the dead. The offerings to the dead
were often made in so lavish a manner
as to involve the survivors In tempo
rary starvation, and it is suggested by
Spencer that the fasting which was
at first the natural and inevitable re
suit of the sacrifice on behalf OF the
dead, may eventually have come to be
regarded as an Indispensable con
comitant of all sacrifice and worship
and so have survived as a well estab-
lished usage long after the original
cause had ceased to operate. - New

CHANGED HER MIND.
Strategic Game In Domestic Economy
the Husband Played.

Strategic Game In Domestic Economy
the Husband Played.
Strategy can sometimes be made as
effective in domestic o.. economy as in
the operations Of war. By way of H.
lustration consider an instance tina
recently arose in n certain city.
An ambitious young housewife there
had an opportunity to buy at a great
bargain a handsome rug which she
needed The price was only 5000, but
the owner declared hat the rug was
actually worth $500. The young wo-
mans husband gently protested that
even 5000 was more than persons of
their income could afford for a single
article of household furnishing. but
after much persuasion he consented to
the purchase. as most husbands do in
such cases.
But this particular husband played a
strategic game. When he gave his
wife the money to pay for the Il it
was not in currency notes of large de
nomination. but in the form Of 200
round. sound silver dollars. The
young woman was astounded. Until
the money was counted down dollar
by dollar she never had realized that
1t would take so many to pay for that
rug. She decided to buy a sixty-five
dollar rug. but declared that If the
money had been given to her in two
notes of 500 each she would have
bought the costlier one without hesita-
tion.-New York Mail.
