If an editor makes a mistake he
has to apologize for it. but if a doctor
makes a mistake he buries it. If the
editor makes one there is a lawsuit,
swearing and the smell of sulphur,
but if the doctor makes one there is a
funeral, cut flowers and the smell of
varnish. A doctor can use a word a
yard long without knowing what it
means, but if the editor uses one he
has to spell it. If a doctor goes to
see another mans wife, he charges
for the visit, but if an editor goes to
see another mans wife he gets a
charge of buckshot. When a doctor

figuring you can make this out just,
right, economical or businesslike for
us to continue in this state, to say
nothing about making our present
conditions worse in the matter as our
president and the present congress
of the United States are trying to do.
1t looks just about as reasonable to
me to talk about Tightening a per-
sons burden or nations burden by
adding a little more to the load upon
his bask or its back. | am certainly
unable to reason it out any way, nor
do / belive that it can practically be
