THE MORE POPULAR DOCTOR

Whether a physician should adopt
the cherry manner of bygone days or
wear look of business solemnity, is
the controversy raised in the London
press by Lord Rosebery, who in a
speech at Epson college said he would
rather thousand times be treated
by a third rate doctor with genial
features than a first rate man of re-
pellant counternance.
"The old fashioned type, entered
rubbing his hands, poked the patient
in the ribs and started to tell him
jokes" replies one physician, would
have a hard time holding his practice
these days
Another writer answers that the
doctor liked by the best modern pa
tient is the one who listens gravely
and ends by saying, II know exactly
what the trouble is" The main rea-
son why the grave doctor is liked is
because he is a good listener, and pa
tients love to do thetalking when it
comes to their trobules.
Nearly everyone prefers the doc
tor with the churlish manner, provid-
ing he has a good record of cures,
concludes the writer, ''to the sunny
duffer who is likely to kill you as
not"

MEETING OF THE G. A. R.-A NEW
METHOD or ENTERTAIN
MENT EVOLVED

All arrangements for entertaining
the Grand Army of the Republic. at
the expense of the Detroit taxpayers.
for the forty-eighth annual encamp-
ment of he old soldiers August 81, 10
September 3, have been completed,
with the prospect that the veterans
will find themselves the object of un-
usual attentions on ev9ry hand.
For sevearl months since the city
council acquiesed in a proposal by
Mayor Oscar B. Marx that a special
tax levy of cents on every thousand
dollars of taxable property be made
to raise funds for entertaining the
veterans, score of committees made
up of 200. leading business and profes
sional men of the city has been az
work with headquarters in the may
or's office working out details for the
entertainment.
The souvenir programs. and badges,
which alone represent an outlay Of
over $4,000, will be handed over 70
the veterans gratis. To avoid the
appearance of operating on a profit
making basis the city has refused all
advertising propositions both requests
for advertising space in the programs
and all applications for permits TO
sell souvenir badges of any kind.
1t will probably be the first time in
the history of the encampmennt that
the CA. R. men have been free from
bombardment by street hawkers.
The plan of street decorations in
cludes large white columns, twenty.
two feet high, in the heart of the city.
Large oil paintings. of men of valor
will be suspended between these col
ums, and the whole will be ornament
ed with flags and electric lights.
Throughout the city local commercial
organization will help to carry out
an elaborate scheme of decoration
and illumination.
Notwithstanding that the ranks of
the G. A. r. are thinning rapidly each
year, the reception committee is pre-
pairing to welcome one of the largest
gatherings in the history of the organ
ization. Ohio, Indiana. Illinois and
Michigan will be almost fully repro
sented, each with several thousand
veterans.
1t is estimated that in all there will
be some $4,000 visitors. In addition
to the G. A. R. gathering there will
be the annual encampment of the lad
les of the G.. A. R., the Woman's re
lief corps, the daughters of veterans,
the association of the army nurses of
the civil war, the sons of veterans
the sons of veterans auxiliary, the
national association of naval ve-er
ans, nd the national association OF
union exprisoners- of war.

PRICES OF DRUGS ARE DOUBL
ING IN VALUE

Special to Ocala Banner:
New York, Aug. 2S.-War has caus-
ed much disturbance in the drug
trade. Prices never before heard of
are beoing asked for rare drugs and
preparations made exclusively, in Eu-
rope. One big drug corporation has
received notice from a German firm
of wholesalers doubling the price of
10000 articles supplied by it. Most
of the articles cannot be supplied in
America. Oil rose, which ordinari-
ly sells at 81 an ounce, has been ad-
vanced to SIS. Norway cod liver OIL
the normal price of which is SIC a
barrel, is quoted at $25, and Russian
cantharides, normally sold at 81 a h.,
is now So. 1t is believed that with sluch
prices it will not be long before some
enterprising shipper finds way to
get a cargo of drugs from Germany
and Russia to America. This country
furnishes many staple articles used
by the drug trade, and these Ameri-
can substitutes are being introduced
rapidly in the hope of educating the
public to use them regularly.

MAR00NS HANG 1NJUM SIGN 0N
 THE REGULARS
Locals Couldn't Bat Mo- rales Collects Some Goats. Phoenix Made Errors, and the Game Was Pretty Fair at That
Gee what a lot of zeros

Gee, what a lot of Zeros,
 With about the same lineup of In dian school players and players se lected from among the Mexican teams of the town. Frank Castle started off the 1914. season yesterday by hanging the Joachim Morales Indian sign on Yates nine. The box score will dis close the fact that in Yates nine are about four last years regulars and about five from just here and about. But it was a pretty fair fielding layout, anyway. Only the regulars simply couldn't hit.
 Diagnosis of the case shows that the hitless wonders haven't taken anything for it since last season, when they struggled along with a pitifully weak slugging crew. Two safeties. and one of them a hit only because it took a bad hop, were all the Solons drew yes terday, while Anderson, Staple and Hall were collectively tapped for five bingles
 Speaking of Anderson. There's portsided conner. for you. Lefty did the first four innings for the Phoe- IllNlclllSs cllO pi tllS SlOuAtclblSf ilC ulN, too. In fact, outside of the bulls pecu liar to the spring season, the team did pretty well. If Third Baseman Barclay failed to show up favorably alongside of the crippled MeDevitt of last year, it was probably not the fault of the mans will. Dick Yates exercised some skull judgment on the selection of his infield, bringing Barton and Robinson in to play the balancing positions Warren who warmed the bench would have been better. Toggy on first was the same Toggy as of yore, but he couldn't bat worth a last years hat. Taking 'em man by man, the trouble with the regulars was this:
 Cactus Candy Kid Robinson-couldn't bat.
 Togneri-couldn't bat.
 Eisel-couldn't bat.
 BartOn-cOuldn't bat.
 Varley-couldnt bat.
 Hoffman-couldn't bat.
 Barclay-cOuldn't bat.
 Danehe-couldn't bat.
 Hall Staple and Anderson-couldn' t bat
 There is such a variety of causes for the regulars, failure that each one can not be gone into separately. So atten- tion is turned to the Maroons.
 After a whispertalk back of the grand stand, Castle permitted the Ma rooms to go on the field. He had filled them up with inside baseball The at tack of the Maroons was steady, and not brilliant, and it won the two scores in the second inning. And the game in the ninth, when the last Phoenix batter was put out.
 There was a new umps. He was a little sort of a cuss, built just like Mil Ter Huggins, and with part of that baseball players name for his own.

WORLD of SPORTl
THINGS THE OTHER
 FELLOW LEFT OUT

If the Phoenicians couldn't hit safe, they could certainly hit far The local hitters gave the Ma rooms only five chances on assists, all of which were fielded perfectly.
 Phoenix made three errors and Barclay two. The MarOOns didn't make any atall.
 Six Maroon put outs were ac- cOmplished in the field. Butler and Teddy each made sensational one hand catches, each of line drives off the bat of the husky Danehe. Old Andy Scott should cred the fence once in taking a long high one that Barton lifted to within six inches of a home run. Gabe in centerfield, was right there. He did a couple of long catches after hard sprints.
 Phoenix worked two double plays. In the fifth, Barton took Gabe's grounder and then, touched second ahead of Morales, cutting the bat ter at first. Later Eisel caught Ritchie in centerfield, and then whipped into the diamond, where Hall relayed to Robinson, nipping Smiley at second

Special to The Republican, )

PRESCOTT. AriZ, Feb. S.-The state
 wide interest in the annual tennis state
 championship tournament scheduled to
 be held in Phoenix on February 22, has
 not left Prescott without some furry
 in local tennis circles and without at
 least talk of entering the contests with
 their crack team. Word of the tour
 ney has reached the ears of the two
 Prescott champs, Dick Lamson and
 Chad. Hinderer. and the two have since
 that time been stamping like penred
 wild horses.
 Lamson and Hinderer have been con- stant contestants in the Phoenix meets in years past. Nor have they come out of the battles without honors to their credit Be it said for the north ern men they are the best and stead jest players in the state, and former meets have watched for the statement. Last year in the same tourney they both reached the semi finals in the singles and the finals in the doubles. 1 The previous year they did not com pete in either singles or doubles, but i in 1911 Hinderer won in the singles and as team they took first place in the doubles.
 These performances of the local sharps have been more than miracu- | lous when it is considered they have no opportunity to practice, while the racquet weldiers to the south have an l opportunity to play on the courts all 1 through the winter. Just what propor- | tions the fray will take this year is un- certain here at the present time, but ii | is certain that Lamson and Hinderel will be on hand for the meet as spec | tators if not with recquets strung fol a victory.

A GOOD Law.

We publish below q law that
may not be generally known and
which we consider timely and I'M
portant:
To amend and re-enact Act PSI of
the Generally Assembly OF the
State of Louisiana of 1908, en-
titled IAN Act making it a mis-
demeanor to make, circulate or
transmit false statements.
rumors, reports or suggestions
written, printed or spoken con-
corning the financial conditions
of any bank organized under
the laws of the State OF Louisi.
ana, and derogatory to the same.
and to provide for the punish
ment of said misdemeanor,"
Be it enacted by the General AS.
sembly of the State of Louisiana,
That Act No. PSI of the General
Assembly of the State of LOUISE
ana of 1908, be amended and re-
enacted so as to read as follows:
Section 1. That any person
who shall wilfully circulate or
transmit any, false statement,
rumor. report or suggestion, writ
ten, printed or spoken. concern
ing the financial condition of any
bank organized under the laws OF
the State of Louisiana, and de-
rogatory to the same, shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor and be
punished by fine or imprisonment,
or both, at at the discretion of the
court.
Section 2. Be it further enact
ed, etc., That this act shall take
effect from and after it's promul-
cation, and all laws in conflict
herewith be and the same are
hereby repealed"
In our opinion this is both a
good and wise law. The laxity
with which many people discuss
many things with which they are
not familiar, often times does
people and the commonwealth
serious harm. This law in effect,
says. if you say a thing is true.
the proof will serve you in mighty
good purpose when the demand is
made for it.
