ate. A coroner's jury, consisting
of number of the most noted
physicians in Chicago, found
that he acted strictly within his
rights and. within the ethics of
the medical profession.
Was this doctor a human be-
ing with a great heart, who re,
fused to prolong the life OF this
child and thereby condemn it to
an existence Of helpless misery?
Or was he a criminal in his re-
fusal to. perform an operation
that meant life, though life be
worse than death?
Hardly day passes but we
read of a crime committed by
some person who is later proven
to have been a defective from
birth. There is no puuishmente
for such. They must be commit
ted to an institution for the rest
of their days, or permitted to
run at large and continue to be
a menace to all people with
whom they come in contact.
Many of these defective peo.
Pile grow to maturity aud marry:
and bring other detectives into
the world. The world is full of
them, and humanity is becoming
more morally depraved and men
tally warped every day. Europe
in particular is deiuged with
them IN high places. brought
about by the pernicious system
of inter marriage: and Europe
is drowning in a sea of blood
and destruction.
What are we to do with our
detectives? Are we to mature
them and send them forth into
the world to breed other defec
tives, to serve as canker in the
mentality and morality of man
kind? Or should they be allow
ed to slip back into the mystery
from whence they came?
We correct the mistakes of ne.
ture in all other res poets by re-
moving the menace in time.
But what are we to do with re-
gard to the greatest of all
nenaces to future generations?
What will the future of our
.ace be if they are allowed to
grow, and propagate. and cover

Upon entering the house he found
Mrs. Hartman stretched out upon the
floor dead, one side of her head hav-

a shotgun, which was lying near the

her little four-year-old boy, who vas
alone with his mother at the time.
Mrs. Hartman and the little boy
had been to the country and had just
returned During their absence and
without their knowledge Mr.. Hart
man had loaded his gun and stood it
in a corner near the bed.
When the little boy and his mother
entered the room the little fellow
seized upon the gun and playfully
pointed it at the his mother, lingering
the trigger. The next instant there
was a deafening report and the moth
er fell to the floor.
Then the boy began to scream.
