containing perhaps one hundred more and
control the bronChi, thoraic, and abdominal
organs, and the lower limbs.
The tongue contributes its quota of per-
haps fifty zones, and may be crudely di-
vided, for purposes of classification, into
two anterior and two posterior parts, each
halved by line running through the center
from tip to base.
Many areas on the tongue duplicate and
reinforce other zones within the cavity OF
the mouth, nose and throat. When this is
the case both centers are treated. Pressure
on the first quarter of the tongue seems to
influence the larynx and vocal cords; from
the first quarter to the half, the thyroid
gland and the bronchi; from the half to the
third quarter, the lungs, the heart, and
stomach; from the third quarter to the base
the abdominal organs.
nR. FITZGERALD has not yet evolved
a theory to account for reflex or lnhl-
bition anesthesia and pressure therapy. He
contends that his present concern is to de-
monstrate the clinical facts. The theories to
fit these facts will follow the anatomical,
physiological and psychological inquiries
already under way.
However, might tentatively advance my
own theory, pending the discovery of the
actual explanation. Briefly, IL IS TINS: Ii
there are uncharted planets and undiscov-
cred germs. why may there not be uncharted
and undiscovered nerve foci or centers which
send their invisible tendrils to connect with
all the principal nerve trunks and distribu-
lions in the body That we cannot see
them is no reason why they may not exist.
A minute insect must have an deliberately
developed nervous system; but we cannot
prove it. If there are planets that are ultra
telescope, and germs that are ultramicro-
scopic, why may there not be nerves and
nerve centers that are ultra-anatomico

of Vermont, was assistant to Politzer and
Char in Vienna for two years, and spent
over two years at the Central London Hos
pital for Ear, Nose, and Throat. He is an
active member of most of the American
medical societies, and enjoys high profession
al standing in his own particular bailiwick.
DIR. FITZGERALD believes the time will come
when patent medicines and dope will go
into the discard, when children will be in
structed in the various nerve zones, and
will be taught to care for their health by
means of tongue depressor and probe,
resorting to the family physician only for
graver conditions. AT present he is eager to
have his methods tested, to determine their
limitations. Strangely enough, the OBJ
lection to the method is its success There
are not vet failures enough to give us cline"
on them.
However, on the basis of two cases dag
nosed as cancer, completely cured, and be-
cause of hundreds of diseased conditions of
various kinds cured, or materially improved,
Dr. FITZGERALD believes that his methods
are worthy of a trial. In any event, if there
is switchboard and variegated assort-
ment of "push buttons in the head, the
manipulation of which promises health, even
life itself, to thousands of doomed sufferers,
it is to our interest to know about them.
If humanity can be helped, if disease can
be thwarted, by any method, no matter
how revolutionary or seemingly impossible,
1t IS worth studying, particularly as 1t costs
nothing but little time and effort. None
of the true and tried principles-as early
operation in cancer, open air treatment in
tuberculosis, etc.-need be neglected. | am
inclined to believe in these principles. l
should not expect others to-unless they
had seen what have. Then. perhaps, they
may agree that it might well be worth our
while to famiiarize ourselves with the
switchboard within our own heads, and
Push the Health Button" when occasion
requires.

SAM and Jack and 1 watched the uncon-

screaming crowd.
"Pardon, Mr.. Coleman. They're taking
down the convention tent. Therell be no

we were dressed and downstairs in a jiffy.
The first man we bumped into was the
day clerk of til,. hotel, and he acted as If
he was trying to laugh himself to death.
Apparently he had been laughing for some
time: for, while his body shook and his
mouth worked, he couldn't talk. Weakly
slapping his leg with one hand and wiping
the tears from his eyes with the other, he
nodded toward the lobby window, and
leaned, helpless and hysterical, against the
cigar counter. On my way through the Jam
that packed the room l ran across Sam Har-

train had been due at daybreak, and it was
now almost time for parade.

"There," said he and pushing me through
the human sardines pointed at the tive-hun-
dred-dollar satin-lined casket propped up
in the window.
Deeply imbedded in the soft interior lay
the ponderous bulk of the Hon. Jeremiah
Regain. He lay on his left side, facing the
street. His face was flushed; a pair of flies
gamboled gaily over his brow; his hair was
tousled; his mouth was open; he was dead
to the world. Pinned on the lapel of his coat

CONFIDENCE RULES
 IN COTTON MARKET
No Danger of Financial Diff faculties Anticipated When
 Trading Is Resumed

New Orleans. August 9.-Although no new business was permitted in the fu- ture end of the cotton market last week much progress was made toward even ing up the commitants entered into prior to the panicky session of week ago Friday From the first of the week brokers were busy ringing" contracts wherever possible and arrangements were perfected which allowed many holders of contracts to liquidate.
 The result of the week was consid- erable reduction in the interest in the market and feeling of confidence that when trading is resumed there will not be any danger of financial difficulties.
 In the spot department some business was done with American mills that wanted cotton for prompt shipment. Prices obtained, on the whole, were satisfactory in some cases, were called high. It was impossible to quote spots with any degree of fairness.
 Many cotton men say that if settle- ments in Liverpool go through the question of reopening may be seriously considered by the American markets Tuesday or Wednesday. Others feel that the complexities of the situation de- mand a longer period of suspension or trading.

practice had entered business te specify "goldn In tender This was sup posed to be desire of the banks and of silver. The innovation came at a time when the commerce of the producing states. notably the cotton states, felt the embarrassment of certain laws of Congress and certain habits of bankers had made that commerce abnormally dependent on New York city for facili- ties of exchange In protest, Represen- tative Dreyspring of Montgomery coun- ty, farmer, offered resolution mak- ing it unlawful in Alabama to contract flor the payment of money in any other currency than the legal tender of the United States es'-greenbacks silver and gold. The resolution was designed more as protest than remedy.
 In pursuit of his favorite policy, the promotion of the public schools, the governor advised: G) the creation of some state functionary charged with the duty of examining applicants for teach- CT license in the schools; t2.) the dis tribution of the public school fund to each school district only upon proof of the attendance the year next preceding (3.) the distribution of the practical school areas for the arbitrary township lines; (4) provide by statue for compe tent school superintendents
 The governor found some normal schools in the state drawing in the az gregate $20,000 annually from the com fin Ia l-o it ., condition of admonition of pupil al a state normal school that the pupil should teach school when educated or pay fee to the state in return for his education.
 The governor did not find the higher educational institutions supported in part by the state, in satisfactory con dition of efficiency. He regretted that all of these without exception, could not be placed under a a single board of control.
 Among the acts of the legislature for the promotion of state education, ap- proved by him, were two, making them agricultural experiment negro schools, that of Booker T. Washington at Tus- kegee and of W. B. Patterson. white man, at Montgomery.
 The very candid announcement of Governor Oates that it had become time In Alabama to arrest the progress of black belt methods in elections, was as we have seen, approved by his sue cessor. Governor Johnston insisted upon a reform in the registration of voters; and legalizing of party primaries.
 Coal mining in the state had grown to the proportions of a great industry. Thousands of miners were toiling daily deep into the earth in peril of life and limb. The state was as yet, without a code of mining laws adequate to their protection. single mine inspector had been created by law under Governor Jones. Now two assistant mine inspectors were provided. Further than this, the present legislature created board authorized to appoint mine bosses. The bosses were required among other duties to inspect the ventilation of all

CANADA PRESERVES
 FADING ANTELOPE
Thompson Seton Engaged in Saving Them From
 Extinction

The rescue and perpetuation of the rap idly disappearing pronghorned antelope is to be undertaken by the Canadian gov. ernment. says a Regina special to the New York World. To this end it enlisted the services of Ernest Thompson Seton the aturalist, and Maxwell Graham. chief of the geological division at Ottawa, who have outlined scheme which promises success.
 This proposes the establishment of three fenced parks for antelope in different parts of their favorite range, on areas not desirable for agriculture and in re- gions that still contain wild antelope.
 The first step was to outline the ancient and present range Of the antelope then to ascertain the probable number at large. The combined evidence of many game wardens and mounted police shows that there are yet between 1000 and 150O ante- lope still at large in the Canadian north west
 Prior to the hard winter of 1906 and 1907 there were at least 10 times as many; but that long, fierce spell of frost and deep snow killed them of by thousands.
 
 nants were making their way north over the frozen Saskatchewan, the rotten ice gave way. according to one ranchman, and over 300 were engulfed on one oc- easion as he watched them from the bank
 Seton and Graham, acting for the Dominion, set out May to select the lands needed Three parks have been secured, one in each of the prairie prov inces, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Mani toba. On the two former the wild ante- iopee still range. All the conditions, cli- matic. topographic and botanic, have been pronounced perfect Each park will be about 36 square miles in extent.
 Fencing will begin this summer. It Will be horse high, bull strong and coyote proof. competent warden will be in charge and in residence in each. As soon as the snow comes a careful drive will be organized to stock the fenced ranges.
