 Dear Doctor: I have long been in -terested in your lecture and club notes and I believe that yours is the right, the simplest most natural method of treatment. As others have given their mite at different times, I will tell of simple remedy.
 My year old babe had badly cankered mouth last winter. so that he could not eat, Borax, alum, honey washes failed to relieve. Powdered Golden Seal touched lightly to the sores gave relief the first application and by the third had almost cured him. Another time he could not re- tain anything on his stomach. A lit tie powdered magn esia in his milk soon cured this. Hoping this will help some young mother, I am

SHOULD COUSINS MARRY?

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 There have been many disputes and arguments regarding the subject, Shall first cousins marry?'' Of course our most learned men advise against it., relying on statistics. but we don't. see what harm there is in it, as we have known instances of cousins mar rying and without exception have proved to be lucky.
 Why shouldn't two cousins marry whose ancestors have not been af- flicted in any way, but have lived long and healthy lives who love one an other and have the same ideals, com mon sense education, health, means and in fact everything that tends to make a perfect union? Do you think that a marriage of this kind would not prove to be good2
 We would like your valued opinion on this matter. Also, please advise us in what States there is no statute pro-. hibiting marriages Of cousins. We hope to read your kind reply.

WHITNEY SAID TO
Be INCLUDED in
STUART ROAST

The conduct and policy of William

circuit court and judge of the juvenile
court, came in for a share of criticism
in che affidavit which Circuit Judge
T. B. Stuart recently forwarded to
Attorney General Gregory in Wash.
ington, D. c., it was learned from an
authoritative source today
In just what manner Judge Whitney
was criticized is not definitely known,
as Judge Stuart has refused to make
public the affidavit 1t is understood.
however, that the chief complaint
made against Judge Whitney by the
third Judge is that the former stood
by the decision of the supreme court
when the trouble arose regarding the
connection of C. ID. Pringle with Judge
Stuart's court in the capacity of clerk,
and which resulted in Pringle taking
action to recover salary which he al
legged was due him.
All the circuit judges, as well as
Chief Justice A. G. NJ. Robertson and
Associate Justice Edward NJ. Watson,
who also are said to have been warm

ported in the Star-Bulletin yesterday,
decline to discuss the matter, although

fidavit from the attorney general, and

SPANISH consul
SUFFERS LOSS OF
GOLD and jewels

Two hundred and fifty dollars in
gold, and five stick pins, set with dia-
monds, pearls and rubies, and other
jewelry, valued at more than $500, dis.
appeared from the residence of L. G.
CULLEN, Spanish consul in Honolulu,
between 6 o'clock Sunday night and
noon Monday. Not a single clue was
left by the burglar.
That some one familiar with the
habits of the consul, and familiar with
his cottage at the Seaside on Waikiki
beach, took the money and jewelry is
certain. 1t has been the custom of
Mr.. CULLEN at the end of the month
to bring home sum of gold with
which he pays household expenses for
the month, and this, with the jewelry,
was all deposited Saturday night in
a box, and when Mr.. and Mrs. CULLEN
went out Sunday night was left in a
bureau drawer in a bedroom. When
they returned home the house was
all locked as they had left it, and the
theft was not discovered until next
morning.
Skeleton keys were evidently used
to open door of the cottage, and the
thief simply stepped in. took the box
without disarranging anything in the
search, and locked the door behind
him when he left
Detectives have been detailed on
the case and a close watch is being
kept for the pins and other jewelry.

WASHINGTON, d. G.. Dec. z. =
Congress is in session again after a
nine-months' recess. Both houses re-
assembled yeterday. marking the be-
ginning of the 64th Congres.
Much important business faces the
members. Since the gavels last fell
in the two houses, many momentous
questions have arisen. OvershadoW-
ing all others are those caused by the
European war, but they do not COM
pose the entire program. In addi-
ton to the questions of national de-
Tense and revenues, which fall natural
ly under the general head of prepared
ness, the merchant marine and rural
credits legislation promise to COM
mand much attention. Many investi-
cations. centering mainly about war
problems are to be inaugurated, and
an interesting fight will ensue, in the
senate over a proposed cloture rule.
The. first business before the House
was the election of speaker. South
Trimble, the. clerk. called the body to
order. Members then proceeded to
the selection of the speaker. The
Democratic majority made the reelec-
tion of Champ Clark of Missouri a
foregone conclusion. Representative
