Auerta, the Cromwell Of Mexico Contrast

have their place in the universal
scheme. but a dictatorship like to that
of Huerta that commands assassina-
ton to its support, urges and uses
treason as factor in his cause, tears
down the columns from the temples
of constitutional rights and immerses
his country and people in a seething
cauldron of revolution is repelant to
every element of our modern civiliza-
ton. Yet this is only part of the
Huerta record of a few scattering
months.
1t is hard to swallow the sugges-
lions that come out of Mexico infre-
quently in the face of this record
that Huerta is a patriot Patriots do
not shoot down their fellows with ma
chine guns. They do not order leading
men of their country to be assassin
ated under cruel and cowardly sub
terfuge. They do not trample con-
and kill lawfully elected representa-
tives of the people. They do not be-
tray their associates for the spoils of
power Patriotism is candid and pa
tient, sometimes not well controlled,
especially when confronted and as
sailed by the sins and tyrannies of
despotsm, but if of the true sort in
none of its fugitive hours can it
have anything in common with a die
tatorship builded and maintained on a
foundation dripping with the blood of
innocents.
With the best will in the world it
is impossible to look at Huerta in
other light than that of a tyrant

from what we have seen or heard
of Huerta, that he has taken Da2

MACHINES AID
SURGEONS.

Machines for administering ether
chloroform or other anesthetics have
been devised, which make the work
of the surgeon easier and safer for
the patient. An improved machine
is being used in several eastern hos
pitfalls which is motor-driven and seems
destined not only to simplify present
methods of anesthetiZing, but to open
a field to surgery which heretofore
has been almost beyond the reach of
the knife. With the new machine it
is possible to maintain normal lung
pressure while the chest cavity is be-
ing explored, a problem solved as a
mere by-product of mechanical anes
thesis, while the patient is freed from
distress as the effect of the drug
wears away. Gas and air, and gas
and oxygen may be given instead of
ether, or chloroform or ether in any
predetermined amount supplied by
this machine Eminent surgeons be-
lieve this method of anesthesia has
a wide and varied field-F'rom the

WORK AND PLAY.

The greatest rest is derived from
change To do something on Sun
day or holiday that we do not do
every other day offers the greatest
relaxation. That does not mean that
the man who spends practically all of
his waking hours in mental endeavor
will find his greatest relaxation in
manual labor. That is theory that
will not hold water. The mental
worker is usually not equipped for
physical work, therefore he will find
his rest in employing his mind in idler
things than those which demand his
daily attention, or in simply idlinS
the time away. on the other hand
the man who devotes himself through
out the week to physical labor will
find relaxation in a physical activity
of a lighter or more attractive kind.

generous or quiet let it be enjoyed in
