TRAFFIC.

Supt. F. L. Watkins Of Bismarck,

things in his m about the liquor

stand against it; the business inter-

clauses in the pledge Is to the effect

fic.
Among the salient points brought
out in his sermon by Rev. Mr.. Watkins
were thai no one needed to throw a
stone to commit murder, that the man
who stole a small amount was just as
much of a thief in the eyes of God as
the man who stole n big amount that
the father who visited pool rooms and
INDUCED in cigarettes but who eau
toned his son not to follow his exam
pie was the man who bore the burden
and answer later on. The same thing,

A Foolish Medical Censorship,

New York World: The County Med
ical society has now gone on record as
against the publication Of pathological
or other professional matters in the
LAY press by doctors, either directly
or in inspired" articles. 1t deplores
the self-laudation" Of such methods
and condemns the Unfortunate prom
inencef' given to physicians whose
names and pictures appear in connec-
ton with newspaper accounts of new
forms, Of treatment in which their
personal success is exploited" Doc
tors who receive such advertising are
informed that they "lower the tone OF
the profession" and they are admon-
ished to conform more strictly to the
well known principles Of professional
ethics.
That lis to say, doctors who have
made discoveries or devised new
methods OF treatment which are OF
importance to the public must restrict
the knowledge Of them to other doc
tors and to the few lay readers OF
medical journals. Is the practice Of
medicine at this day an occult art
about which nobody must know any
thing but the initiate? What faint is
there in publicity that can affect a
doctors reputation? If a medical
theory is sound, public knowledge can
not harm 1t, and If 1t is unsoutid, the
best way to discover h fact is
through free discussion.
1t would be interesting to know how
much OF this a~ntagonisra to "profes-
siona1 advertising comes from doc
tors who have no discoveries of their
own to make public, and how much is
inspired by Jealousy, stupidity q in
competency. Certainly the best way
to educate the public In health mat
ters is by giving the utmost publicity

Christmas Exercises.

On account of the HERALD not put
ting out it's regular full four pages
last week but issuing only Just such
publication as to retain its legal stand
ing, no mention was made of the var
ious Christina exercises held in our
little city and we will make mention
OF such in this issue.
On account OF so many OF the con-
gregation leaving the city for the holi-
days, the Methodist Sunday School
held their Christmas exercises Sunday
evening before Christmas Appropri-
ate exercises for the occasion were
well rendered and the children given
treat. The Presbyterian and Chris
tian schools held their exercises
Christmas eve. At each place nice
trees were provided and old Santa
came at the appointed time and
thrilled the hearts OF the little tots
with mis- jolly presence and the an
nouncement that he had left good
store OF candy, nuts and gifts for them
which the committee IN charge would
distribute.
The exercises were especially good
and were much enjoyed by all in at.
tendance. The little folks were just
bubbling over with JOY and it did the
children Of older years" world of
good to watch their antics and fun
provoking maneuvers
An abundance OF treats and gifts
we're provided for all and no child
went home with sad heart because
Santa had forgotten them. 1t was in
deed a Merry Christmas for all.

The Close OF the Year.

The close OF the year is always time
for serious thought and reflection. The
past crowds upon us at such time
with far more than usual intensity aud
especially forces upon our attention
our faults, failures and mistakes Let
us look them squarely in the face and
profit by them The wise man always
does this but the fool, never. The
latter goes on committing the same
iollies and making the same mistakes,
never protiting by his experience, to
say nothing OF the experience OF 9TH
ers. Every man makes mistakes, 1t
may not be his fault the first time, but
it is il he makes the same mistake a
second time We believe that the
secret Of success with those who sue
ceed, and the cause of failure with
those who fail will be found largely in
the ability and disposition to study the
causes of both success aud failure, not
only in ones own experience, but in
that of others. The farmer now has
leisure to review the operations Of the
year, and he should do it candidly and
critically. Make a complete analysis
Of every important operation. Find
the weak places in il and trace them
to their origin, Nothing will prepare
one so thoroughly for the operations OF
the year to come as this kind Of search
ing investigation.
And while We are about this BUSH
ness we should look just as carefully
into our record of moral responsibility.
We should be far more anxious to i'm.
prove character, mind and morals than
TO improve our farms. Serious study
OF our weak points and of means to

Women farm laborers in England
number nearly one hundred thousand.
Over fire thousand women are en-
gagged in industry in Italy
Over six thousand women in New
