to Election Of Maryland
Senator.

Columbus, O., Nov. 15.-The If
teenth national convention Of the Anti
Saloon League of America went ON
record as favoring nationwide pro-
hibition of the liquor traffic. The reso-
luton adopted calls for a federal con-
stitutional amendment, opposes the
system Of licensing or taking revenue
from the liquor business, urges states
to press anti-liquor shipping laws, and
makes a yelled attack on Secretary OF
State Bryan for his part in the recent
senatorial campaign in Maryland. The
convention adjourned with the elec-
! ton of the national officers.
The yelled attack on Secretary
BRYAN came when the convention
adopted resolution stating that fed
eral officers interfering in state poll.
tics should consider themselves the
moral guardians and political sponsors
of the men elected to office through
their influence and should hold them
selves responsible for the conduct OF
these men while in office.

SURGEONS Discuss Radlum az Possible
cure-Scarcity Of Element
Hampers Tests.

Chicago, Nov 15-Scarcity OF raj
dunn has preveated thorough test
Of what it's curative properties may
be in cancer, according to the report
made to the clinical congress OF sur
geons in session here, by the cancer
campaign committee.
The committee organized to combat
cancer by spreading information lead
ing to early treatment Of the diseast
as soon as it manifests itself, reported
ON the educational campaign of the
past year carried on ty the American
Society for the Control Of Cancer.
"Only time will tell what percent'
age of the cases can he cured with ra.
dunn" the report states. "The sur.
geons who have reported the best re.
suits from radium still urge early op.
Grafton whenever possible.
Few surgeons in this country have
enough radium to give it thorough
trial. It has appeared that extensive
| doses have sometimes cured when
smaller amounts have little effect. 1t
is suggested that radium should be
standardized to eliminate variations
in it's strength"
Popular articles in magazines, pub
I licity through newspapers, lectures be"
fore women's clubs, in factories and
elsewhere, have been effective through
out the year in spreading information
on cancer.
"Seventy-five thousand persons in
the United States will die of cancer
in 1913," said Mr. Hoffman. "The
death rate is sc per cent of the total
mortality for persons over As.
Importance of early diagnosis and
surgical treatment was urged by the
delegates in resolutions adopting the
report. No other procedure offers
hope at present, it was declared.

WHIsTLER'S ODD WAYS.
A Portrait That Was SIasFed as Soor
as IL Was Painted.

- ~ wa
Lord Redesdale once gave a descrip-
ton OF whistler's methods to a meet
ing in London in support OF memo
rial to the great artist The eccentric
master was painting, he said, pcr-
trait OF lady.
Whistler took up his position at one
end of the room with his sitter and
the canvas at the other end. For a
long time he stood looking at his
model, holding in his hand a huge
brush full OF color, such brush as a
man would use to whitewash a house.
Then he rushed forward and smashed
the brush-full Of color into the canvas.
Then he ran back, and forty or fifty
times he repeated this. At the end of
that time there stood out on the can
vas a space which exactly indicated
the figure, the form and the expression
of the sitter.
There was pathetic story attached
20 the picture The bailiffs were in the
house when the picture was finished.
That was quite common occurrence.
and Whistler only laughed. but he
went around his gtudio with a knife
and deliberately destroyed all his can
vases. including this picture. which
was to have been his lord Redes.
