DR.. TRACY AN AUTHORITY.

The diathermic current as remedial
agent in the treatment of nervous germ

ployed extensively in this country by Dr.
Samuel G. Tracy, who is connected With
the electro-therapeutc department of the
POSTGRADUATE Hospital. with Bellevue Hos
pitai and with the New York Skin and
Cancer Hospital. DR. Tracy is also neuroI-
ogist TO the Vanderbilt Clinic and is re-
garded everywhere as a high authority on
the medical use of electricity, particularly
IN nervous affections. Knowing these facts

he entered the White House. The Presi-
dent made numerous addresses during the
day, the most notable being that delivered
before the Massachusetts Legislature, in
which he declared that he welcomed pref
erentia Presidential primaries under proper
conditions.
" All that the administration wants is
square deal, said President Taft, speaking
from the steps of the Concord On, H)
State House, near the close Of his two days
visit to New England. During his stay in
Boston and IN New Hampshire the Presi-
dent spoke TO twenty audiences, stating
definitely his attitude on the tariff, his
reasons for opposing the recall of judges
and judicial decisions and his continued
hope for ultimate arbitration. Mr.. Tafts

Reading from a carefully prepared speech
he poured ridicule on the Presidents inter
probation Of the principle Of government by
the representatives Of the people, and de-
Tended in particular his doctrine OF the re-
call Of judicial decisions. He entered on
more accurate definition Of what he intend
ed by that than in his Columbus speech,

state which Justice Holmes. Of the United
