THE CAUSE OF APoPLExY.
Rules for Those who Fear an At
tack of the Disease.

From the Youths Companion.
The word generally means a sudden pa
ralysis caused by the rupture Of a blood
vessel in the brain; It is popularly called
stroke 1t is a result Of a softening g
OF the arteries that often follows primary
hardening or ateriosclerosis.
The disease Is a common accompani-
ment Of old age, so common indeed that
1t is regarded by many as the one char
acteristic senile change.
1t is not confined to old age. however,
for many comparatively young men who
have gone too fast and too far in the
pursuit OF wealth or who have met with
reverses and have worried unduly over
them have hardening arteries and are
killed or disabled by apoplexy.
In their hardened blood vessels there
may be softentng spots which. bulged by
the hyraulic pressure Of the blood, form
little sneurisms. A little extra strain on
the vessels, caused by some violent emo
tion or the lifting of a heavy weight or
running to catch a train may then rup-
ture one or more Of these little aneurisms
and so let the blood pour into the brain
tissue.
II the blood escapes rapidly and in
large amount II causes immediate loss
of consciousness and paralysis; II the
blood escapes gradually and in small
amount II causes either severe headache
and tingling and numbness in one or
more Of the limbs, or progressive loss Of
power, gradual dulling OF the mental fac
ulties and ultimate Inconsistencies.
Apoplexy Is not always fatal: indeed,
complete recovery without any paralysis
sometimes occurs. The sufferers immedI-
ate fate Is commonly decided in two or
three days-either he dies without regain
ing consciousness or his mental faculties
gradually return. He is then seen to be
paralyzed in either arm or in one leg
or in one side of the face, or in all three
In less serious cases the paralysis less
ems, the facial expression becomes normal
and the limbs regain their power. Even
when tho paralysis is permanent there is
almost always more or less Improvement
for some weeks after the stroke
Apoplexy can be treated only by the
physician, but those who fear an attack
can do much to avert II. Quiet and calm
should for them be the rule Of life. They
should never make any severe muscular
EFFORT. They should never run for cars or
climb stairs quickly. They should avoid
hearty meals and the drinking Of much
fluid, even water, at any one time.

Massachusetts,.

i IS CR;Eorssllv conceded that the
prirtaries 70 h helJ Massachusetts
siosdsy e saituts ia1 point of
;ha aiaps se Republican
party for the Presidential L TIinaton.
The result is almost likely be the
last word for both sides. If Mr.. Taft
secures a majority in the State his re-
nomination is assured beyond a doubt.
The moral effect of his victory will
easily secure him the less than 100 dele
gates necessary to complete his ma
jority in the national convention. More
than this, he will have deponstrated
his strength as compared with that of
his opponent in manner to justify his
selection as the stsndard-bearer. Roose-
welt apparently realizes the full sig
nihcance of the outcome He knows
that if he cannot carry Massachusetts,
upon a popular vote he might as well
abandon all thought of his own nom
ination or even of defeating President
Taft. He would undoubtedly continue
the struggle. but it would be against
depressing odds.
Massachusetts belongs in the cate
CORY of almost certain Republican
States. Occasionally, as when it sup
ported Butler upon the greenback issue,
if wsnders away from the paths of con-
servstism, but it repudiated Bryan, and
the free silver issue. Since 1896, with
the exception of last year. it has given
Overwhelming Republican majorities.
Mr. Taft carried the State in 1908 by
10000 plurality, nearly 10000 more
than had been obtained by Roosevelt in
1905. 1t is true that in 1910 a Demo-
cratic Governor was elected, but in the
vote for Congressman, based upon
Congressional districts, the Republican
two years ago only lost one district as
compared with 1908. The Democrats
now have four Representatives instead
Of three The vote to-day will be by
Congressional districts, and unless there
has been a great change in public opin-
ion President Taft ought to poll more
votes than his opponent. The Repub-
lican Congressman from Massachusetts
without a single exception are sup
porting Mr.. Taft, and they must surely
reflect the sentiment of their constitu-
ents. Some of them, like Mr.. Mccall
and Mr.. Gardner, represent rock-ribbed
Republican districts.
The chances. therefore, are in favor
of a victory for President Taft, de-
spite the energetic and spectacular
campaign made by Mr.. Roosevelt Both
candidates have made the State a bat
tle-ground, and they realize that much
depends upon the result. 1t has, un-
fortunately, been a contest in which the
real issues have been clouded and OBJ
scured by personalities, so that the
voter is called upon 10 decide between
men rather than principles. 1t is a
pity that this should be the case, but
even from this point of view, Mr.. Taft
is not at disadvantage.
Massachusetts, is the Gettysburg of
the preconvention campaign. Upon its
lvote to-day largely depends the issu-
ance of the war.

Law Is Supreme.

Organized Crime VS.. Organized So
ciety. What's the answer?
In the United States it answers itself
by the recent Hillsboro affair; in Lon
don, about year ago, It is shown where
the anarchists were driven from their
lair; IN Paris, The Herald cables show
that when the issue came to the front
nothing was allowed to stand in the
way or prevent the enforcement of the
laws of the land
These three instances are mentioned
because of the notoriety given them by
newspapers and because they are typi-
cal of the power some desperadoes
ss eve they possess.
Sa1h es>amples show the futility of
sf5 indie dual or body of men trying
ss 5resk or ignore the, laws of so
.lesssy, and should have an effect on the
" actions Of that class who look upon
organized government as something TO
be antagonized. For time the law
breaker may go immune, but the min
ute organized society in the shape of its
servants sets a price upon his head, il
is only matter of time before he is
caught
Again, referring 10 the three ex-
amples mentioned above, the fact is
apparent that those directly concerned
as lsw-breskers we're either ignorant of
the power of those that obey the law
or else they fancied themselves secure
because they had been allowed to rest
in peace either through laxity of law

PRESIDENT YUAN
SPEAKS TO COUNCIL

PekIn. April 29.-At the opening Of the
advisory council to-day, President Yuan
Shih Kai delivered his first Presidential
message. 1t was in the form Of speech
at the opening session OF the advisory
council, which is the provisional senate
of the new republic.
The President stated that the principles
OF the government must be maintained.
They call for the maintenance Of order
In all provinces, the steady progress OF
the nation, and the preservation of ex-
ternaI friendships, which, the President
said, are necessary to the existence Of
China. He expressed his gratitude to the
foreign powers for their peaceful and
just attitude toward China, and he
urged that all foreigners be treated
with friendship and candor.

cause.
1t is a lesson to all evildoers and also
one to those who are held responsible
for the laws enforcement It shows the
folly of any attempt to defy society,
and the necessity of that society to en-
force its regulations strictly and i'm
partially before the would-be law
breakers look upon themselves as being
outside the pale Of the law.

IL. For several years he has been the
main steering gear Of the State Repub-
lican machine, and has kept the machine
nicely fabricated with money right from
his big plow factory. Though he Is here
now by appointment OF Gov. Hooper, to
succeed the late Bob Taylor-and the
first Republican Senator from Tennessee
in more than thirty years-Sandcrs is In
reality here by his own effort In the
last campaign he gave half his wakeful
hours ana $4,000 in money to the Repub-
lican campaign. The result Of his eff
forts was the election OF Hooper.
Hence etc.
Sanders greatest ambition is to maks
Tennessee a Republican State. He thinks
that a man who has had the good fortune
to clean up a couple OF tons of money
should do what he can for the general wei
fare. And according to the Sanders no.
tion. switching Tennessee over to the Re-
publican column would be such a grand
contribution to the public good that the
benefactions OF Andy Carnegie and John
Rockefeller would seem as useless as
young-Iadies- seminary French.
When he started to the University Of
Indiana, at the tail end of the SOS. San
ders wore a plain suit of homespun that
had been made by his mother at their
home a few miles away. Several mem
bers Of his class laughed rather bolster
ously at this outfit and one fresh young
chap even went so far as to take hold OF
the sleeve and examine the texture OF the
goods. and express wonder that his tailor
didn't have such stun in stock.
Sanders turned TO him and remarked:
I'D like to lay q bet with you that II
1 keep my health, some day I'll have
more money and be able to buy more
blamed clothes than the whole daggoned
class put together"
And he has come mighty close to max
ing good on the assertion. He says that
incident of the homeSpun suit has done
more to spur him on than any one thing
he knows OF. The feeling OF malice to-
ward the rest Of the class wore on be-

After all, It is possible that the Jelly
wobble," the latest dance fad in Wash
ington, was not intended as a reflection
on Uncle Jim Wilson's administration Of
the Department OF Agriculture.
Bunny hugs and turkey trots are dis
turbing Washington society greatly. And
this is going on under the very shadow
OF the national building where the houses
Of Congress sit in legislative watch over
the moral welfare of this great and good
nation. What have those houses been do
ing with their sacred trust?
A new dance that threatens to eclipse
the turkey trot" and the bunny hug is
entitled ''the jelly wobble." This is
enough to make one duiver.
The bunny hug, grizzly bear, angle
worm wiggle. and turkey trot were start
ling enough. and who would have sus-
pected staid old Virginia, home Of the
stately minuet, to invent such awful
things as the fuzzy wuzzy" and terra
pin dandle"
The trouble with the turkey trot is
that it does not know when 1t is sup
pressed.
The turkey trot is to be barred out Of
Washington. but it is probable that some
other things which are inimicaI to the
interests Of the people and destructive Of
moral standards will be permitted to
maintain headquarters In that city.
The jelly wobble dance is no new thing
