New and Usually Fatal
Horse Disease.

The present outbreak of very
fatal epizootic disease of horses
in Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri
and other middle western states
is attracting wide attention from
all horse owners. Although no
case has yet been reported in
Wisconsin, it seems wise to call
attention to the chief SYMPTOMS Of
the disease in order that any out
break may be early recognized
end steps be taken to control It.
The State Veterinarian Of Ne
braska states that the disease is
not confined to any particular To-
cality, horses in dry sections as
we'll as low, damp sections being
affected. There is absolutely
nothing i nown about the nature,
cause, treatment or prevention OF
the malady. Horses usually sue
cunlb to the infection; not more
than five per cent recover, and IN
the Veterinarian S opinion these
few recoveries are not due to any
treatment. It attacks horses Of
all ages, but mostly young anil
mails between two and six years
old. Most Of the horse die with
in forty-eight hours, few hnger
for a week or more. In some cas-
es death occurs. within twelve
hours.
The initial symptoms are yarl-
able. However, indications that
the central nervous system IS
chiefly involved are shown by
general lassitude, grinding OF the
teeth. deranged senslbility, etc.
The animals cannot control the
movements Of the limbs, and fall
down and generally remain fiat on
the side without showing any ev-
idence of pain but may make au-
tomato movements with the legs,
The temperature in the greater
number of cases range between
103 and 1O6 degrees F. At first,
the pulse is nearly normal, later
# fillctuates, and finally becomes
very fast and imperceptible. At
the same time the breathing IS
increased and abnormal.

VOICE FROM THE ETHER

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
was preacher when on earth and
taught what l honestly believed true,
and now. like thousands of others, am
anxious to correct all now know was
erroneous While the Bible has much
truth it also has much error. 1t was
written by more than forty persons,
covering a period of over fourteen CEN
turtles. imperfectlv translated many
times, books voted ins pired or not By
mnrderous mobs. Some of it was in
spIr2d by spirits the same as Julia

Clairvoyants, and some was written
bv ignorant, wicked men. II Is beyond

PLANS TO INCREASE
POSTAL REVENUES

To the Editor of THE TIMES:
/ would like to suggest a plan which,
believe, would greatly increase the
postal revenues. l believe the United
States Government should be paid for
acting as agent for mail order concerns
who are greatly responsible for the
postal revenue deficiency in the past.
1t is we'll known that it is just as eX-
pcnsive to handle circulars and cumber-
some advertising matter as It is a first
class letter. There is a tremendous
business done through the mails an
nually hy these mail order houses as a
result of mailed advertising matter,
which so frequently congeSts the mails
and necessitates more employees to han
die same. l recommend a postoffiCe
mail order tax or license to remedy
these conditions.
/ would also suggest the establishing
of a postoff1ce bureau of legitimate ad-
Vertising where every advertiser of any
goods, medicines, implements. machines,
etc, would be compelled to register and
show prCof Of their advertisement, cop
les of which are respectively sent to
this bureau and examined, and il found
legitimate a postal advertising right
would be granted, for which some as
certained fee would be paid by the
grantee. Travelling inspectors or post
masters could be designated to visit ad-
Vertisers without notice.
Besides being good source of rev.
enua the plans set forth would greatly
boost the sale of useful articles to a
once doubtful public, and, better still,
it would serve to detect and eliminate
concerns who prey upon helpless, pub
lie, thus providing a great protection for
80 900 900 Of people.

EXAMPLES OF BRANTLEY AND BOURNE.

Congressman Brantley of Georgia announces
that he will not be candidate for reelection be-
he doesn't think he is in step sympathy with
the political thought of these days.
His statement makes clear-aS his course in
the past has done-that he doesn't like the popular
government tendencies of the times, and that he is
not in harmony with the tariff purposes of his party.
On the whole Mr.. Brantley is to be congratu-
lated upon patriotic decision, in quitting Congress.
We think it is good thing for Congress- the party,
and the country. 1t would be a fine thing if some
scores of other gentlemen, quite thoroughly out
of tune with the times, could have the vision and the
real patriotism to dictate that they ought not to
main as mere Instructions to the course of events.
But while it is possible to present unqualified
approval of Mr.. Brantley's determination to get out
of Congress, it seems that he might have chosen
better way to do it, Suppose for example he had
written letter to his constituents, setting forth his
exact views these timely questions and asking his
people to vote whether they wanted that sort Of
Congressman! Let the personal element be taken
out of it entirely; let Mr. Brantey explain his posi-
ton, and let the people vote the issue thus raised
not on his oodfeowshp, or their old acquaintance
with him, his superior ability to tell stories from
the stump.
That would give pretty accurate notion of what
one average constituency thought and wanted. SEN
ator Bourne of Oregon is giving his people chance
to do just that He declares that he will stay out of
Oregon throughout the fight He will make no
speeches, run no campaign, attempt no appeals and
manipulation He will lay his record and his opin-
ions fairly before the people of the State in fact he
has done all that in some most effective votes and
some striking speeches. On that record and those
views he wants to be judged.
This is taking all the red fire, hippodrome, and
spectacle out of campaign. The people simply
have nothing left but to think and talk about issues
and merits; which ought to be highly desirable
change of procedure in American campaigning.
The Bourne method of testing public opinion
seems worthy of all commendation. Perhaps, Mr..
BrantIey would have adopted some like system if
he had not been certain in advance that it would re-
suit in his retirement.

A CALISTHENIC NOVELTY.

In that great center of health and well-being
Battle Creek, DR.. Mabel Howe Otis delivered lee
ture before santarum medical staff and num-
Der of Y. W. c. A. girls The medical staff seems
to have sat as quietly as Paul at the feet of Ga
maaI, but the Y. W. C. A. young ladies were visbly
shocked when the lecturer seriously advised them
to practice standing their heads at least once if
not twice every day as a matter of hygienic dis
cipline.
In order that she might convince her hearers
that she was not advising them to pursue course
which she herself would not or could not follow she
suddenly planted her coiffure on the carpet stuck
her feet in the air and stood poised there like an
old-fashioned Alabama sling for a minute or
Then she resumed her discourse the whole
,somenesS of this form of exercise.
1t is written in the archives of nonsense that
once when Mr.. Disraeli was asked the hustngs
how he stood in regard to a certain public question
he twnkled back with the retort that he stood or
his head" 1t may we'll be doubted however
whether in their general attitude toward hygiene, the
young woman of the period will stand on her head.
It lacks the excitement of basketball, and the
grace of certain steps of the turkey trot In spite
