the very moment when they are faith
fully performing their duties. 1t Is the
courage and the vigilance OF these good
dogs that is often the cause of their be-
ing killed by passing motor cars. When
a shepherd whose flock is near the road
side sees an automobile coming he
quickly drives his sheep to one side Of
the road But to keep the sheep in line
it is necessary for the dog to run up and
down the road. There is no other way of
keeping in the flock 1t is while the good
animal of such valuable assistance to
man is thus performing its duty that the
motor car comes flying along Ike a cy-
clone, as If the salvation of the world
depended on its speed. The unfortunate
dog. which is busy with keeping the
sheep in line, is almost always ru.. over
or hurled to death.
The writer asks that the Automobile
Club should take steps to urge. and. II
need be. to compel. chauffeurs to slow up
completely when they are about to pass
a flock Of sheep. What, he asks, Is, after
all. delay of a few seconds to tourists
going at the rate of fifty miles an hour
to the poor shepherd. not to mention the
act Of needless cruelty committed in kill
ing these beasts.

Pas. the Able Courbe, who is In the po
sition. probably unprecedented in the an
nails Of the French priesthood, of being
the father Of thirteen children. His story
is quite simple one. and is as interest
ing as q novel. Courbe was one Of a
family Of thirteen. When he left school
he went into the Ecole Normale. mean
Ing to become an engineer. Then he
changed his mind and entered the Semi
nary Of St. Sulpice.
When war was declared in 1870 Courbe
took up arms and fought for his country.
After the war he fell IN love with young
lady whose home he had protected from
the Germans, married, had thirteen chill
dren and became q widower In 1893.
Then, and not till then, Courbe became
priest. But during his priesthood. though
his life was necessarily hard one, he
never neglected his thirteen children,
and he has the satisfaction now Of having
earned their living by his own hard
work. by giving private lessons. and. of
having established them all comfortably.
OF his thirteen children. three are in
the church. One is q Jesuit in Jersey, an
other son is deacon at Choisy lie Roi, and
one of his daughters Is a nun. third
son is I'm training for holy orders. The
two elder ones assisted their father when
he was ordained. a large subscription
has been raised to present the old able
with a piece of plate and sum OF
money, but he has announced his inten-
ton Of distributing the money to the
poor. az he himself. now that his children
are all comfortable, has, he declares, no

ORDER BY THE PRESIDENT
CLASSED AS AUTOCRATlC
League Makes Plea for Christian
Science Healers in Panama
Canal Zone

The National League for Medical Free
dom has addressed n letter to all its
branches in the various states protesting
against executive orders issued by Presi-
dent Taft which, it is claimed, will pro-
hibit Christian Scientists and other heal
ers who have not received authority from
the medical board in the isthmus from
practicing healing arts in the Panama
Canal Zone The letter is signed by B. 0.
Flower, president of the league.
In Effect December IA.
The orders were issued by President
Taft October Il. 1911, to take effect De-
cember IA, ana provide for fine or i'm
prisonment, or both, for violation of the
orders.
In his letter of protest Mr.. Flower says
Last year at the hearings before the
Senate and the House committees We
claimed that whenever power was given
to executive Observation-Disclosures or
boards-it would only be n question Of a
short time before the rights of the citi-
zens would be invaded and II would be a
crime for a practitioner to cure even
those whom the regular doctors failed to
relieve, without the permission Of the eX-
ecutive, tho bureau or the department Of
ficials. The opposition ridiculed our POSI-
ton and said that such fears were abso-
lutely groundless.
Presidents "Autocratic Power
'Dr. Murphy in his speech of last June
did much toward strengthening our posi-
ton by authoritatively affirming what we
had claimed In regard TO the real desires
and purposes OF the American Medical
Association. and now President Taft, hav-
ing autocratc power in the Zone. has
done DreCtSply what the pOlftical doctors
have been trying TO do throughout the
United States and has outlawed Christian
Scientists and any others whom the au-
tocratic medical board declines to license
to pra ctice medicine.
This executive order should arouse
every patriot in the land. from the Allan
tic to the Pacific, who values the most
sacred rights that have been enjoved by
the people since the foundation Of the
democratic era.

time. Lieut.. Crairne is the commandins
