They. Are Not Cures" Though Some
times Translated as Such.
Many newspapers are haSty in an
nouncing the discovery in Germany Of
some method of treatment more or less
new. and not intrequently information
is given the public through the failure
to keep in mind the actual meaning of
one little word. The German word
"kur" does not mean cure" although
I is not an uncommon thing to find it
80 translated into English.
ITO cure" in English means Ito re
store to health, to effect cure but il
other languages 1t means merely to
apply n method Of remedial treatment
at disease. medical or hygienic care
method Of medical treatment" The
German word for restoration to
health" is "heilung." not "kur."
The Latin word ''cura" means mere
~ care" shade of meaning which is
preserved in the derived term "cura-
tor" An Italian physician was recent
~ made to say, when his article was
translated into English. Il cured ten
typhoid patients last month, and six
of them died" What be really said
was that he bad treated ten patients.

DECIDE Z SALARY
DISPUTES TONIGHT
Council Will Take Up Matter
of Wages Paid City
Officials.

Final decision as to whether Offices
of superintendent of the crematory.
and the sealer of weights and meas
ures will carry with them increased
salaries after January /, 1914. will be
given tonight by the city council when
the salary ordinance will be brought
up for third reading and placed on its
passage.
Neither of the men who hold the
offices now, will say much regarding it.
Both say they want the raise in sal
airy but are not pressing the point.
William f. Whitacre, superintend-
ent of the crematory, stated that he
did not ask Councilman King to speak
for him last Monday night when the
matter was brought up. He says he
had no idea of an increase in salary
until the salaries of other officials
were increased while his salary and
that of John Taylor, sealer of weights
and measures, was left at the same
figure.
Needs Help.
Whitacre says he is as busy now as
he will be in four years or a hundred
years unless the crematory is en-
larged. Then, he says, another man
will be required to assist in running
the plant. He says he will not quit
his job because he is not increased
but believes that out of spirit of fair
ness, the city will give him a raise.
Taylor expressed the same opinion
on the matter as Whitacre and says
his office has been sighted by the of
ficials. Both men will appear at coun-
Gil tonight to defend their offices
should the question start a debate.
