The divekeepers Of West Hammond
say that they have no fear of state

When deal DR.. Waynian had his de-
gree conferred upon him last summer
by a Chicago law school, OF course he
made a talk in which he safd that II
some of his Cook county brother at
torneys had lived in the days of piracy
they would have been pirates. He said
much more by way of comparison. All
of which suggests this question:. Wha,
would have been an official who toler-
ates such conditions as prevail at Kest

If DR.. Wayman ever starts that gum

there was more or less talk some time

REAL DENTISTRY IS MODERN
Most Of the Improvements Have
Been Brought About Within
the Last Century.

In some of the ruins OF Egypt are
e~ngravings representing a man lying
on his back, while another is standing
over him pounding out a tooth with
a rock. This is primitive dentistry.
and while it might seem TO be severe.
yet. no doubt, lit brought q measure
of relief, otherwise such extreme
measures would not have been resort
ed to.
In China, it is said, when a mar
goes to the native dentist for relief
from the toothache. it is the usual
procedure for the dentist TO insert
his finger In the patients mouth. and,
on removing 1t, show him a worm
which he says he has withdrawn
from the tooth, and which was caus-
ing the ache. This procedure. SO we
are told. usually stops the ache.
These primitive methods are a far
cry from the scientific attitude of the
profession today, yet most of the i'm
provement has been brought about In
the last 100 years.
The causes of this rapid develop
ment have been many, the rapid
growth of knowledge in other lines
Of work, the formation of dental col
leges, the invention and manufacture
of useful instruments, and the scien-
tific study of the mouth and it's dis
eases.
There is one other thing which has
brought about this marvellous growth,
which is perhaps more important
than all the other causes combined,
and that is the professional spirit, or
dental ethics. as it is sometimes
called.
1t used to be the thing, if a den.
fist made an improvement, to hide IL
from his brother dentist 81 that he
might reap the benefit alone. Many
a secret. or invention, has died with
the dentist originating it. In time
this custom was changed. and then
the profession began to progress by
leaps and bounds. Nowadays, IL a
dentist discovers anything new tina,
is good. he carries it to his society
and explains it to every one, SO thai
all may get the benefit. He goes tt
the convention with one new idea and
brings back a hundred, and both be
and the public are benefited.

THEY DID THE RIGHT THING.

Lessee James Wingfed and Manager H. L. ST. Clair are to be congrat-
u1ated for bowling to public sentiment and barring the doors o. the Orpheum
theater to Evelyn Arthur See and his unspeakable teachings.
Manager wingfed avs that he was deceived by n of the publicity
agents representing Se According to Wingfed he surprised when
he learned that See himself expected o appear in company with Mrs. Felicia
Rees and Mona Rees.
Manager ST. Clair did III that he could do under the circumstances. The
fact must be understood that when a play is booked TO TIL Orpheum the
alter that St Clair las n alternative, as manager of the house, but to stage
that attraction.
1t is true that were he to be advised about the matter he might have
expressed his opinion is to III advfsabnity of booking an attraction of this
character. But the attraction "a booked before st. Clair knew what had
been done and he had no other alternative than to larry out the orders of
his supenors.
However. when Lessee wingheld learned that See actually expected
o com to Hammond and questioned Manager St Clair about the storm
protest that had arisen over the matter, h e vas unhestatngly informed
that the engagement ought to b e cancelled.
Wingfeld took his advice and TIL potency of public opinion in Ham
mond ws splendiy demonstrated. Had See been permitted to appear
in Hammond in spte of public opposition the management Of the Orpheun
theater would have laid itself wide open.

Ihorounhness an Asset.

One qualification II business girl
should cultivate. If she wants to give
satisfaction and to be sure always OF
a position. is thoroughness The girl
who does things thoroughly is joy
to her employer. Let her have that
reputation and business man will
bolt the Office door for fear she will
escape before he can engage her.
The girl who half does her work Is
everywhere. The girl who is thorough
is rare. And. like all rare things. she
is priced.
Everywhere thoroughness is rated
high. All lines of work require it. 1t
is a quality that employers need most
urgently. 1t is absolutely essential to
successful business. a business man
can't afford to jeOpardize his business
by placing it in the hands of the girl
who half does her work. He knows
that the injurious results of neglect.
forgetfulness or Indifference may be
farreaching
When girl acquires reputation
for thoroughness. when it becomes
known that she can be absolutely de.
pended upon TO do thoroughly what is
intrusted to her. that no part Of her
work will be left undone. no part done
carelessly. she will never be out OF a
position long.

VOTES FOR WOMEN.

The law has always discrimi-
mated against women. 1t has
given them less personal liberty,
fewer property rights and UNI
equal power of guardianship
over their children. And even
today in many continental coun-
tries women do not receive fair
treatment from the law. | think
that If women voted some things
would be accomplished, but no
changes would be so violent as
one side hopes and the other
side fears. The logical way to
Judge the suffrage question Is to
study how it works in countries
where it Is already being tried.
New Zealand and Australia are
two Of these countries. believe
that the women who take the
time and trouble to 60 to the
polls and vote are good women.
If they were the other sort they
wouldn't bother. And up till
now woman suffrage in the coun-
tries | have mentioned has been
productive of no harm. so far as
l can learn. and has certainly ac-
complished some good. - Sir
Frederick Pollock.
