CURES THAT ARE NOT.

Magazines, newspapers and period
icals over the country are conducting
a campaign against quack medicines
that are guaranteed to ''cure" diseases.
Legislatures will be asked to pass laws
against advertising of this sort. They
would have it a crime to announce
publicly that a medicine will positively
cure" the numerously mentioned ills
The Medical Times of New York,
leader in the movement, says:
Cure is a word which reputable
physicians use with the greatest pre-
caution. The practitioner who claims
ne can cure a particular disease is a
fakir, and has no place in the profess
sion. He can say that by various
means at his disposal he hopes to eff
feet a cure, but until medicine be-
comes an exact science no one can
safely proclaim himself positively able
to bring about complete recovery.
1--WE would like to see law on the
statute books of every state in the
Union making a public claim of cure
started by Printers Ink to eradicate
the advertising fakir. If this will in
clude the lying statements of the pat
ent medicine man we will rejoice. If
not, let some Moses arise to lead a
movement which will chase the men
who say they can cure into some
wilderness whence return is impossi-
BILE. Let US emphatically repeat that
no reputable physician will guarantee

EVENING CHAT
By RUTH CAMERON.

Is there any virtue, I wonder
which, when carried to excess, does
not become a vice, or at least a de-
feet? 1t seems to me that the ole
Greek motto nothing in excess ha:
even more of wisdom in it than ap-
pears on the surface.
L am thinking today especially OF
| optimism. Optimism is certainly 6
most beautiful quality. 1 preach it
teach it and try to live by my owr
preaching and teaching. Indeed
the devil is dead is one of my favor
lite notices. And yet have seen even
optimism gone to seed and bringing
forth thorns instead of fruit.
There are some people who are
what 1 call offensive optimists. In
an office where 1 used to work there
was a most exaggerated example of
this type. Mrs. R. was an optimiSt
from the word go. Day after day
she used to come into the office in
enthusiasm and delight over her own
affairs, and address us something
like this:
ST am so happy this morning. My
rich uncle has just sent me the loveli-
est bracelet from abroad and then
would follow a lengthy description of
the beauties of this wonderful brace
let, it's probable value, her uncle's
wealth, some of his former gifts, etc,
etc.
Or it was, ooh, girls, Jim cher
husband) is going to buy me the
window. He says 1 haven't had any
thing fit to wear for an age"-she
who dressed infinitely better than
any of US.
Or MY dear, isn't it perfectly
lovely, L am to have a raise in pay
happy. Aren't you glad for me ?"-
wasn't that asking good deal when
she knew that she already received
twice as much as most of us, and
knew that we knew it?
1 have known pessimists who wore
on my nerves, but none any more
grating than this offensive optimist.
Surely you have known someone of
her type, someone who, no matter
what your mood was always loudly
calling on you to rejoice with him
over his good fortunes. Now there is
a great deal said about obtruding
ones ills and sorrows on other people;
is there not such a thing as obtruding
ones enthusiasm and good fortune?
When the Bible says, rejoice with
complement, land weep with them
that weep" 1t does not advise a self
ish and tactless optimism that per-
sists in rejoicing, and in asking 9TH
ers to rejoice with you, no matter
what their state of mind or their pri-
vate troubles may be.
Maybe I'm very selfish, but there
are times when, although I'm glad
for him, 1 don't feel just like hearing
all about my neighbours wonderful
good fortune. And perhaps 1 under
rate human nature, but 1 certainly
have a lurking suspicion that there
are a good many other folks who
sometimes feel the same way.

FROM OTHER PENS
RATHER DANGEROUS


The colonefs disapproval has fallen
on Boss Films scheme for an iden-
tical set of electors on the Taft and
Roosevelt tickets in Pennsylvania, the
total electoral vote of the state to be
cast for the ticket receiving the larger
number of votes at the polls Several
reasons occur why Oyster Bay should
dislike the plan. An identical set Of
electors would give the election the
character of second primary between
Roosevelt and Taft as members of the
same party. In view of the coIoneTs
passionate desire for Democratic votes,
that would be a dangerous experiment
to make. 1t is we'll enough to be
Republican in a state where. by so
doing, Mr.. Taft can be forced out of
the party and compelled to run on
ticket nominated by petition. That
means Furnishing the devil and not
compromising with him. In the sec
ond place, there is no telling what
may happen on election day. Closer
to the heart of Pennsylvania Republic
cans than either Roosevelt or Taft, is
Protection. Woodrow Wilson running
on a radical tariff reduction platform
is a peril which will drive the protec-
tionists to consider which man, Taft or
Roosevelt, has the better chance against
the Democrats. The progress of the
third party movement throughout tine
country does not augur a Roosevelt trI-
umph. Pennsylvania Republicans may,
at the last moment, decide that the
chances are. after all, better with Taft.
And a larger poll for Taft than for
himself, with the saving of the state
for the president, is something the
colonel cannot consider with equanimi-
ty.-New York Evening Post.
