THE CASE OF lNcuRAHLEs.

For ages the question of how to deal with the incurable sick has been prom inently considered by health and medi- cal circles. Interest in humanity and the alleviation of suffering lead to different conclusions as to best means of meeting the demands in the cases. Many have held that it was more hu- mane to painlessly end the suffering, as would be done in the case of an injured brute. even though the taking of human life has never been consid- cred the proper course except as 8 means of punishment. Law and gen. eral sentiment are opposed to it, for the parting with dear ones is hard enough, even in cases of suffering, to deter action of that kind
 The subject has recently been brought to attention by the appeal of Mrs. Sarah Harris of New York, a helpless paraIytic, who asks that some means be provided whereby her suf- ferings can be ended and that a law be enacted whereby it will be possible to bring death to such incurables as she. In such an instance. the most man can do is to give all the com fort possible and keep the suffering at the minimum. Not all incurables feel as does Mrs. Harris. The great
 majority find that life at it's worst is
 sweet and altogether too short. Grave danger would result from such legislation, for while it might bring relief to many incurables. in
 these days of wonderful results and
 surprising recoyeries. who is to decide the question-the patient doctor,
 realtives or friends? The danger is
 too great that many lives could be
 sacrificed under the plea of incurabili- fv

REGULARITY AND PuNcTuALIrY

Now that the, school season is again opened and the schools all under one system. there is very important part which the children and the par ents can play in contributing to the success of it- It is something which was just as important under the old system, but it needs to be faithfully carried out under the new. and that is the regular and puncttial attendance. Monthly and weekly records have been kept in many of the schools for the stimulation of this feature with ex- cslent results. The teachers realize, perhaps more than the parents or the pupils, the value of the children att tending every session and being there on time. Sickness or unavoidable de- tentions from achool are of suffscient frequency to pull down the perfect attendance record and interfere with the progress of the pupil and the class, to warrant every effort being made to avoid it at other times.
 Absence from school interferes with the best results in the schoolroom. It retards the others. and this condition of unfairness should be taken into conslderution, as well as the ioss,to the individuals. If Is impossible to re- gain lost ground. and it is the ssteady, everyday attention to the lessons which gains and retains the full edu- cation and reflects the work of the school Every case of tardiness or absence means a handicap to school and pupil. By general co-operation, however. on the part of all concerned and particularly the parents, the well fare ana education of all children can be better met. It is a matter in which all should take a deeper interest. and manifest it by starting right

E For years the Browns had planned a European trip, but every year some : thing happened to prevent their get
 ting away. First the children were i'll and then Mrs. Brown invited guests for
 a short time, who stayed several months, preventing the Browns. by the dwindling of the bank account, from going abroad that year. Thus things went on.
 Finally Brown declared as an ab-
 solute certainty that Europe would see 1 them the following year. All their friends were notified and everything was done to make it impossible for their trip to be prevented.
 When all was ready, however, Brown was ordered by his firm to secure particularly desirable contract at any cost It meant lot to the firm and to Brown, but it also meant months or
 untiring effort-effort that could not be put forth in Europe.
 Brown, however, had made his VOW and he refused to let his business in ttrfere with his family's plans The family could go to Europe even if he couldn't. They had relatives abroad, and, besides, he could send them with a party. So he packed them on the train and looked as cheerful as possi-
 ble when it pulled out.
 When he returned home, however. he began to realize how lonesome it was there. It got on his nerves finally and he resolved to board during his bach eforhood. So he moved to a hotel
 l Then the thought came to him tc rent his house for the months that Il would be vacant unless he rented, 1t There was no earthly use in letting Ii
 stand and gather dust, which was the same as throwing away a goodly sum of money each month. Some one would 1 be only too glad of the opportunity te live in a well furnished house in q | fashionable suburb, with all the bene- fits of the Browns home comforts Some one, no doubt, was searching ca gerly for such an opportunity. Sc Brown hastened to advertise the treai in store for some one.
 The number of replies he received was highly gratifying to him. After picking out the letter written on the best appearing stationery he clinchcc l the bargain over the telephone. Oi course the tenats refused to pay near | Ily what he thought his house was worth. but on reflection he concluded that they were really caretakers fol him who would prevent vandalism ana would look after his property general. fly.

MORE ACCUSATIONS TO EXPLAIN

There are going to be plenty of op- portunitfes for the Colonel to work overtime in addition to his campaign speaking to issue explanations of the many accusations which are being piled up against him. No man of his prominence is laboring under such a weight of false claims. made by him self for the bolstering up of his posi- ton before the people. He labors un- der the impression that no one should dare to contradict him, that he is the generalization of truth and that his proof is his word. Votes must be got ten at any cost. N -'s
 still antangled in the Standard Oil matter, which he considers he has es- caped from because he says he dis charged man named Bum from the Philadelphia postofice. Dr. Wiley comes forward with statement that .Eoosevelts claim that he was respon- sible for the pure food and drug act is wrong, and. he has letters to prove that the Colonel opposed the passage Nof the bill at the time. This is much like the claim of the .ex-president, who hldlnedhhou lhdt ue Stdrteu tne bureau of mines, when 1t was started during the administration of President Taft The. latest accusation against the bull moose boss is that he called into his home prominent socialist, R. w .Bruere, who edited and revised. his confession of faith and contributed to his convention speech much in accord. 1Ance with the socialistic doctrine, a doctrine which has such a leader 'as W.
