A surgeon whose work is almost ex-
elusively among the Cossacks has
shown the medical world of Europe a
new wrinkle in the speedy and handy
healing Of dangerous wounds--espe-
cially when IN the field and far from
hospitals. The means consists simply
OF applying to the wound thick coat
ing Of ashes-preferably made by
burning cotton or wood cIoth-and
then binding it up with the bandage
which every soldier carries. The
ashes seem TO draw the pain from the
wound and to act curatively in a
remarkably short space Of time. The
method is particularly effective in sa-
Der and bayonet wounds.

give a teaspoonfuI Of California Sy-
rup of Figs and in few hours all
the constipated poison, undigested

Selling of Arms to
the Warning Nations.

The Chicago Journal, which has a
faculty Of saying some very pertinent
thing In very direct and understandable
English, characterizes as ''unpatriotic
folly" the demand that this govern
ment prohibit the sale Of arms and
supplies to the nations now at war
Our Chicago contemporary further
says:
II is absurd, because such prohi-
bition goes contrary to the recognized
rights and long established customs
Of all neutral peoples. Bismarck ad-
mitted In 1870 that the United States
had right to sell arms to France
Germany and Austria sold weapons
and munitions to Turkey during the
Balkan war, France carried on a SIM
liar trade with Greece Prussia got
rich selling military supplies to Rus
STA during the Crimean war, when the
cars ports were blockaded by Eng
land and France. And only last sum-
mer a German steamer landed a ship
load of German arms at Puerta- Mex
leo for Victoriano Huerta, then ar
open and avowed enemy OF the Uni
tea states,
Furthermore, such a prohibition cuts
both ways. II the United States may
not sell military supplies to nations
at war, then the United States may
not buy such supplies when engaged
In armed conflict itself. To enforce
any such rule would tnflict incredible
damage on this nation, would deprive
US of the enormous advantage of hav-
ing frontage on two oceans. would
enable an enemy on the Pacific coast
to close Atlantic ports to the most
important traffic without sending q
ship to Atlantic waters.
This is the best statement Of the
case and the best answer to the prop
osition that we have seen. The Uni
ted States Is Of course not going tc
cut it's own throat py acceeding to any
soch foolish demand.
The people of this country have the
right and should continue to have the
right to sell goods and supplies t1
whomever will come and get them
They have and should have, on the
other hand, the right to buy goods and
supplies wherever they desire to buy
them.
The proposition is just as broad as
it is long and is as fair to one nation
as to another
