RHEUMATISM A SYMPTOM
Caused by Poison from Some Aiing
ORGAN, Or. Painter Explains.

Boston, Oct. 26.-In discourse
given in connection with the Clinical
Congress of Surgeons in session here,
DR.. Charles F. Painter of Boston, at
the Peter Bent Brigham hospital to-
day, explained to several hundred
surgeons that rheumatism is usually
the result of ailing teeth, of the cold
that will not stay cured or of disor-
dered tonsils, ears or other organs.
The poison germ, he explained, is
carried by the blood through the body
until it lodges, usually choosing the
Joints as a resting place.
DR.. L. P. Richardson and DR.. r. H.
Miller of Boston demonstrated an
operation requiring blood TRANSMISSION
in which glass tubes were employed.
These tubes, which are wax lined,
are new thing in surgery and are
the invention of Boston physician.

story, finally having been deceived
and separated from her husband

hopes will end in finding him.
Mrs Whitehcad's story is pitiful in
the extreme She tells how she has
pursued every means she knows to
make an honest living since her hus-
hand disappeared and She believes her
husbands leaving was only result Of
her sisters strategy. Her sister, she
says, has made an effort to separate
her from her husband, during all their
married life.
According to the story, the two
were living peacefully month ago in
Enid, when she received a letter that
her mo,her was Ill and he received "A

tC leave hint soon They consulted
each other and decided that she would
not go home Shortly afterward she

Experience Points The Way.
 (Norwich Bulletino

Experience is a great teacher and 1t works out just the same whether it is applied to an individual or the government, whether it concerns an insignificant piece of legislation or the tariff. It wasn't long ago that the democrats were clamoring for free sugar and even though the admins tration understood the importance of revenue it was confident that it could get along under its plans and cast aside the $70,oo0,00o, more or less, that had been received annually from the sugar that was brought into this country. It was considered nec- essary to put this comm modity upon the free list and sacrifice this amount of ready cash regardless of the harm that would be done to the industry in this country, because it promised so much for the ultimate consumer.
 Though the tariff on sugar is not to be entirely removed until next spring it has long been recognized that the sugar schedule is a revenue producing method which the country cannot afford to part with. There has been lost about $2O, 100000 a year since the reduction went into effect and should sugar go onto the free list as planned it would mean the loss of $50,000,000 a year more. The depleted condition of the treasury cries out against it and though it may appear to be a case of eating crow there is common sense in the announcement which comes from Washington to the effect that the provision for free sugar will be suspended and it would not be at all surprising if the duty imposed by the last administration was restored. Tn this respect congress will have something besides theories to guide it this winter, and 1t will not all be confined to sugar.

have been some among Us who have not thought first of America, who have thought to use the might of America in some matter not of Amer ica's originative.'' True, there have been some of these people amongst us, and there still are some here; but their day has come. They must go, and all who think as they do must go There must be a lining up,-the good and the bad, the Americans and those who are against them, the sheep and the goats, if you please, tho men who love and cherish this country and those who have centered their thoughts on some other land must all line up for the final inspec- tion. This is the dividing of the ways. There can be no middle ground when America is at stake. If it has to be made a campaign question for 1916, well and good. Either you are an American or you are not an Amer ican. and that is the end of the story. America First.

One Determined Man.
Louisville Courier-Journal.

The Texas rancher, MT. McAllen, who stood pat against the invasion of his ranch house by band of armed Mexicans, killing two and wounding sufficient number to drive the mar auders off, showed what one deter mined man may do when he stands upon his rights with his back to his hearthstone and shoots to kill or cripple.
 MT. McAllen's encounter with the Mexicans lacks the human interest" that would have attached to it had this been a home in which a wife and children bundled behind their protec- tor to watch with anxious eyes the re- sults of the battle between unequal forces. He was a bachelor who ate peppery mixtures prepared by a Mex lean cook and lived, no doubt, a rough if not a venturesome domestic life, pitting a good digestion and hope against the output of the skillet. But he objected "pintedly'' to seeing the ranch house raided by thieving ruff fans from beyond the border. He ac- quilted himself in good old-fashioned border style when he potted the lead CT and the leaders first lieutenant ana winged reW or the rank ana file whose knees or elbows showed from behind trees or piles of stone.
 The Mexicans were somewhat more formidable than the average mob. They were hungry, no doubt, and in need of money, of course, and they were armed and accustomed to deeds of violence. But the bark of their shooting irons did not stand against the bite of the ranchman's rifle.
 If there were a sheriff in every county as firm in his intentions as J. M. McAllen of Mission, in the Lone Star state, there never would be a lynching.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
Views on all sides of timely questions as discussed in ex- changes that come to the Herald Office.
Unique Contest,
(New Haven Union.)

St. Louis is putting up unique fight against the insurance companies. The great gulf storm, spent in force, but still severe, hit the town raging for twenty-four hours and almost every house in the city was dam aged by rain soaking through walls. The rain for all those hours was blown against the walls and held there, so that, if not immediately, within a week inside plastering and papering were ioosened and dropped off the walls. House-owners presented claims for damage under cyclone insurance policies. The insurance companies rejected the claims because it was claimed the damage was not due to wind. St. Louis claims that if a strong wind for twenty-four presses mass of water against and finally through house wall, surely the re- sultant destruction Is an effect of wind and is therefore to be compen- sated under the wind clauses of cy- clone policies. If not, then all clauses in those policies resolve themselves into air, thin air.
 Apparently the cases are going to the highest courts for adjudication.

It Was the Truth at That.

Old Uncle Will was still faithful to d,is young "missus," but the truth or many of his amazing statements had long since ceased to be depended upon.

 "I tell you. Miss Bess, it sho am a dangerous thing, all dis we're a-drivin' bv wimmin folkses."
 Why. what is the danger?" asked his amused "missus."
 Well. Miss Bess, I know a man what wuz run over by one of dem things whar de lady wuz a-drivin' long bout two year go, an dat nig- ger, he was so plum scairt ne ain't breathed since, nom, not once!"

they do not know whether they are on their heads or their heels.' Un- doubtedly the mpliment-if it is a compliment--is deserved, as millions of made Americans can testify, many of them to their sorrow. Whether the unfirtatious feminist will take any satisfaction in this eminence is somewhat doubtful. It is still more doubtful whether any American women except the handful that hope to marry into English titles will be pleased by Mrs. Tweedle's conclusion that "the American woman is what tile modern English woman might have been had she not centuries of conservation and tradition behind her; we the English) are what the fair American may yet become" Let our men, at least, utter a word of pro- test. If the evolution of the Ameri- car is going to make her more and more like the English woman, we want no more evolution. We prefer American women as they are
