Favors for cOrmOrsnts.

Thus do our sagacious legislators
stultify themselves in the interest OF
the cormorants to whom they grant
special privileges, because, forsooth,
they claim to heal without medi-
cinesl There is now no discrimination
against schools OF medicine There
fore the special protection demanded
for them by the bull moose platform is
gratuitous and intended only to entrap
votes The "healers" belong to no
school Now comes Theodore Rex and
dignifies them by special provision
and, expressing most tender regard
for their sensibilities. promises to
shield them against discrimination by
educated physicians.
This platform would raise the Quack
and healer above the men who daily
exemplify their personal and profess
sional superiority by some unselish
devotion to the public veal. In his
eagerness to placate the influential
hord OF empires Mr., Roosevelt would
have us oblivious of the fact that the
educated physician is the only real
altruist in the community. Instead OF

insults Educated Physician.

This quaok plank of the Progressive
platform not only insults the intelli-
gent voter, but wounds the educated
physician, In that 1t places the latter
in the same category with empires of
Nigh and low degree, rubbers, sun
curists, magnetic and other healers and
all other pretenders who fatten upon
the credulity OF the helpless sick and
their terrified relatives The Sun has
adverted to the outrageous violation
OF propriety and justice which charac-
terizes the medical laws of several
states in the Union. the last instance of
which we deplore In the medical reg
ulations of the canal zone and which
the bull moose platform threatens to
iniiict upon all the states OF the Union
These Legislative enavtments require
all persons who propose to become
physicians not only to pursue a more or
less thorough course of preparatory
education, but also to be trained in all
branches of medicine and, besides, to
be subject to rigid examination by
appointees OF the state. All these serve
to protect the public against ignorant
pretenders and would be perfectly fair
did not the very same enactments ex-
empt the latter from the provisions APP
plying to educated practitioners.

The Result In Arkansas

The voters in Arkansas are not IN
favor of statewide prohibition as a
section Of their constitution
Whether the white voters would
have declared the same result is
not yet definitely ascertained, but it
is believed that a majority OF the
white voters of Arkansas are not In
favorof statewide prohibition.
Many of the counties in Arkan-
sas already dry were opposed to
prohibition.
It looks as if Arkansas had de-
clared for the traditional Democrat
ic policy of local option, The ques-
tion of the sale of liquor remains
with the counties
Because the people of Arkansas
have declared against prohibition,
let no man think they are in favor
of an unrestricted sale of liquor.
The makers of whiskey and the
dealers in whiskey must realize
that the continuance Of their occu-
patton depends largely upon them
selves. People in this country are
rapidly passing a point where they
will nc longer tolerate dive in a
small town. They resent the inter-
ference Of the liquor interests in
their local political contests and in
the larger politics of the state.
The liquor business, like other
biz business in this country, must
submit to regulation.
The liquor dealers cannot violate
the law and then when an effort is
made to put them out of business
plead for their business in the name
of personal liberty, There is a tenn
perance movement in the United
States which is nationwide, but we
believe It's advocates will cause its
general triumph not by prohibition,
but by such methods as will put in
to every mans mind a horror Of in

To Remove Stains

Iron mold and dry ink stains may
be removed by placing the stained ma
terial in a hot solution of salts of sor-
rel or salt of lemons, M leaving 1t
to steep until they disappear; or by
placing the stained part over a basin
and pouring boiling water through to
moisten the stain. which enables the
chemical action to take place more
rapidly.
Then a small quantity of salt of
lemons or salts of sorrel should be
placed on the stain and rubbed firmly
in, and boiling water again poured
through. If the first application does
not remove it the process must be re-
peated. II the iron mold is due to old
iron rust neither of the above mem
toned chemicals may remove 1t sue
cessfully.
A pinch of oxalic acid, which Is q
stronger chemical. may then have the
desired effect. 1t is used in exactly
the same as salt Of lemons,
but it must be used with great care as
it is injurious to fabrics.

gray hairs before they are fifty, but

wisdom of our grandmothers in using
sage tea for their hair and are fast
following suit.
