statements, all of which he announces
he is ready to absolutely prove to
those who desire to know the truth.
DR.. Coutant states that the only true
method of conquering deafness COM
pletely is by removing the causes of it.
Doctor claims the cause is an inf1am-
nation of membranes of the ear or
passages thereto.
He asserts that the dominating
cause of deafness is one that can, in
most cases, be reached by means akin
to those provided by Nature, applied
externally. He is opposed to the old
systems of drugging; he proves that
vibration, kotalizing and other appli-
cations are by far the most successful.
WHY PEOPLE REMAIN DEAF
DR.. Coutant explains how people
try one doctor, hospital or remedy af-
their deafness. Most ear specialists
resort to powerful drugs, electric bat
teries, alcoholic tonics, use of surgical
instruments and catheters. DR.. Govt
ant says: Let me treat a dozen or a
thousand persons in their own homes;
they need never come near my office
nor see me. They need never swallow
a teaspoonful of medicine nor submit
to any surgical operation. [ am con-
fident that double as many of these
deaf persons will regain their hearing
by my method as if they were treated
in specialists offices or in hospitals"
DIR. Coutant has written treatise. It
is a most interesting book, giving a
great amount of valuable information.
Many have said it is worth it's weight
in gold. As a special gift to our read
ers the Doctor has decided to give a
copy of his new treatise free to every
who aDDlieS.

HEARD FROM VERMONT?

Have you heard from Vermont? Then let's take
pencil and paper and analyze the results. Let's
see what they mean. There was total vote of
about $4,000, the largest since 1906. In 1906 the
Republican candidate received 43 1892, the Demo-
cratic candidate 26,9l2. Yesterday the Republican
candidate received about 10000 votes, a loss of
approximately 40 per cent. ! The Democrats with a
vote yesterday of about 100000 show loss over their
banner year of something more than rs per cent,
although a gain is shown over the vote of 1908.
THE PROGRESSIVE PARTY, WITHOUT ORGAN
IZATION WITHOUT ANYTHING BUT ORATORS
AND ARGUMENTS, POLLED A TOTAL OF 16 600
VOTES and established the power of Progressivism
in the very heart of the standpat country.
1t looks like a Bull Moose year. doesn't it? Look
as if THE PEOPLE were aroused Looks as if

DEALING WITH DETECTIVES.

Two related yet quite remote events connected
with the care of the insane nave appeared this week.
In New York State the governor has just appointed
the new board of examiners of detectives. The
board consists of neuroogst, general practitioner
and surgeon, and its function is to examine the
detectives in all the State institutions with view
to prevent the increase Of this class of more or less
dangerous unfortunates. 1t sa radical STEP bearing
upon the effects of mental arrangements The other
event the announcement, made in Baltimore
concerning the plans of the Phpps Psychiatric
Clinic and Hospital, to be opened under the auspices
of Johns Hopkins. This novel institution, estab-
lished through the benevolence of Henry Phpps of
Pittsburgh, will endeavor to remedy the causes of
mental disorders. Says Dr.. Adolph Meyer, who will
be in charge
We know that many of the mental conditions
pictured in former days due to mismana cement
rather than to disease 1t is the aim of the psychatrc
clinic to get at patients possible through its
out-paent department, social service with the
promising possibility of attractive and beneficial atten-
ton. 1t will not supplant existing hospitals; It only
wants to help in encouraging early treatment.
But that means great deal in the solution of
an old and narrowing problem. Existing institutions
have to be maintained in large measure for the
very reason that cases Of mental disorder are so
commonly neglected in their early stages When
the Baltimore plan is ful-hedged-t is due in part
to the enterprise of the famous DR.. Osler-the New
York plan will not be needed seriously

WELL SPENT VACATIONS.

A of highly trained experts, instructors
and professors in the engineering departments Of as
many different colleges and universities have lust
completed their vacation. 1t spent in he mills
at Pittsburgh, where during one of the hottest sum-
mers record these professors worked for $40 a
month and lived with the mill hands at worknen's
hotels.
They entered this work to learn the practical"
side of their profession. They have learned much
more, and what is of far greater consequence both
to them and the industrial world They have learned
to view the industrial world through the eyes of the
man in the ranks. They have become familiar with
opinion as it is formed and expressed in the shop,
the dinner bucket at the noon hour and at the
gatherings of evenings at the boarding houses
The education of these experts and instructors
has been very thorough along the theoretical and
to their students the exact science of mechanics,
higher mathematics, and chemistry.
But the industrial world does not live bv ma
chinery alone 1t takes to make great success
of a great industry. To do this it requires direction
of men by who know men.
The social and industrial unrest of today is due
the lack of this human element in our modern in
dustral life. Strife suspicion, and working at cross
purposes will continue in tine laboring world until
the employer and his representatives can view the
industrial world from the angle of the man in
the ranks, and the in the ranks can view the
responsibilities of the industrial world more from
the angle of the boss"
These twenty professors have spent most p"of-
table vacation if they have gained such conception
of the workngmans life that they instruct their
pupils not only how to handle machinery but how to

master on General Delivery Mail.

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
1t seems to me that the postmaster Is
entirely exceeding his authority when
he orders that general delivery letters
shall not be delivered to addresses
unless they give reasons for not hav-
ing them delivered to a house ad-
dress. When the Government accepts
letter and Is paid in advance TO de-
liver 1t. 1t tacitly enters into a contract
found. The letter belongs to the ad-
dresser until 1t is delivered. then TO the
addressee. but 1t does not at any time
become the property of the Government.
As long as a general delivery service is
maintained, II is none OF the postmas-
ter's business why people prefer to
use II, and he has no right to with
hold mail directed through that serv-
ice.
No doubt there is a great deal OF clan
destne correspondence which might
better be prevented, but the postmaster
is not appointed as censor of public
morals. The business of his office is
the transmission and delivery of mail,
and when he deliberately interferes with
that business as he has in this case 1t
is time he was told where the boun-
daries of his province lie. The Ameri-
can people are entirely too submissive
to such autocratic methods of their
public servants. Yours truly,

ANOTHER ONE NAILED.

Unfortunately for Mr.. Charles Edward Russell,
who tells wild tale charging Colonel Roosevelt with
undertaking to wheedle j. Pierpont Morgan out of a
campaign contribution of 100000, he names a wit
ness who happens to be alive. He says Wayne Mac
Veagh, formerly u. S. Attorney General was
present when Colonel Roosevelt, then President,
telephoned Mr.. Morgan on such a purpose. The
story was given prominence in all the anti Roosevelt
papers last Sunday.
The colonel is willing to admit that he blew up
the Maine and pleads guilty to putting the serpent
in the Garden of Eden, but denies that he has ever
had telephone conversation, directly or indirectly,
with Mr. Morgan.
However, the colonel's testimony is not needed
in this instance. Mr.. MacVeagh disposes of Mr..
Russell's cock-and-bull story by simply denouncng
it as lie out of the whole cloth
If the plan Of the ant-Roosevet campaign is to
throw all the mud tha can be scraped up in the hope
that some ofiit will hit and STICK it is beginning
rather too soon to be effective
There is certain to be reaction against that
sort of political warfare which will be anything but
harmful to the man and the cause upon which it is
made
