Dresslar finds the greatest ultimate good of medical inspection. He notes that great numbers of our people ars stfiI in gross ignorance and supersti- ton regarding health and disease, since many of them constantly att tribute to g. divine Providence deaths from diseases directly due to filth s.Our chief duty lies in removing the causes which contribute to physical tsneoundnese and disease. As long as we head our children in schools where they must breathe impure air. bend over unsanitary school desks, work at books when they need physt- cal exercise, just so long shall we De paying for our own errors.
 Dr. Dresslar concludes that we need health officers whose chief de- light Is in finding and developing beautiful cases of physical perfec- ton rather than in finding some ob- scure and rare disease; health officers whose philosophy is based on the gos- pei of physical vigor, on the sanctity of personal purity and the godiiness of clean-living; doctors of health" in very truth, who will be concerned with exhibiting, not long list of the physically defective and diseased, but a large list of healthy, well-deve1op- ed children.

KIND OF DOCTORS
 THAT ARE REoUTREDl

we need more doctors of public health than mere doctors of Knedi- cine" says D. F. B. Dressler in q bulletin: s"The duty of the State in Medical Inspection of Schools" just issued by the United States Bureau of Education. Dr. Dressler pleads earnestly for the kind of medical inspection that Eeeks to promote health rather thaft that which hunts for HI-heaIfia. Our system of pay ing doctors to do som ething for Us when we are sick ought to be large : of paying them to keep us from get ting sick.''
 Dr. Dresslar Justif3es the State,s in- terventfon in the health of it's citf- zens on broad grounds of public pol icy. He feels that the community has as much right to demand good health in its children as it has to de- mand that they attend school: as much right to preserve the cornmura- ity against the contagion of disease and bodily neglect as against the con- tagion of ignorance. The chief as- set of any State is physical starnina, guided by wholesome, moral ideala. and broadminded intellectual power, and Dr. Dresslar contends that medf-, cal inspection and aea1th supervision are Indispensable agencies for con serving this asset.
 In answer to the question: Haa medical inspection as now organized proved useful? Dr. Dresslar shows conciusively that medical inspection has called attention in a startling way to the danger of school condi- tions in transmitting disease; 1t has already fessened actual fI1ness and consequently secured better school at- tendance: and best of all. medical ir- spection in the haands of carefully trained men with the right spirit has proved to be an educational agent of great value, by stimulating parents to give more attention to food, cloth- ing, sleeping rooms and general home sanitation. and by disseminating bet ter ideals of hygienic living.
 IT is in this increased knowledge by the people as whole concerning the personal care of health that pr.

THE BATTLE OF

 The peace then ruling tue sewing ma chine Industry could not last long in the presence of so broad stream of Ecld pouring into Howe's coffers. Lead- ing manufacturers rebeIled against paying him further stributes' and Quarreis to alleged infringement. Early in 1856, the suits of these com pzainants were to be tried at Albany, of disaster hurled by each camp in succession Tn hoteI-Iofhies. in the ante@chambers of justice ftselfs faces cations Issued from ungnarded lips. One party to the fray was an eminent lawyer of New York, George Clifford, who kept his head cool and his mind clear His professional experience had taught him that the4 demands Of clients are not always free from hum foreFunner Of the modern trust mag mates who have remodeled American industry. Said he: ~tsIn Albany to- day are assembled the men who con- kro7 the sewing machine manufacture of the globe. Let them join hands in- stead of shutting their fists, and they will find vastly more profit in peace Than in war A survivor of that conference remembers one cause which contributed to the success of this sa- gac5ous plea Even the most just

over-capitalization inevitably results in less efficient service, cheap car and road-bed materials, under paid wastefu1, extravagant graft. Bran deis of Boston proved this latter pointn nindubitab1y-also brutal, hearties, wholesale killings.
 We must like it, otherwise we would not continue to tolerate it.
 Toistoy spoke truly when he said that "a nation always got just tho kind of government it deserved" It is equally true that people always gets just the kind of service they de- serve.
 If they lack the intelligence and sgumptfon'' displayed by almost ev- globe, and neglect to governmentaI- ize their railroads-naring them and integral part of their country's means of doing business-as is the Post Of- flee system-they richly deserve all that they are getting, unfeelins as 1t may seem, to say so.
 How many thousands more black ened, charred, broken corpses must ,. point the way with bony fingers, and utter their silent cries with fiesh1ess lips ere we heed the warning so pail pab1e-so deadly--so fnevftabie7
 It is all so futiie--so unnecessary. Let us end # by purchasing the roads on basis Of their physical valuation. Or let us build parallel lines by the same means which we now employ in building our Panama Canal. Then operate our railroads with the most scientific and modern eouipment-steel cars perfect auto matte block system and double engin- eere--and thereby secure efficient. absolutely safe service.
 Then, and only then will we avoid the deadly repetition of these brutal ly calIous eatastrophes.
