A MEDICAL DEGREE IN IOWA.

The doctors and the legislators must

schools Of medical and mechanical and
healing shall be certificated TO
practice In this state. Argument upon
the healing business and professions
runs into wordy warfare and involves
certain. scientific theories and common
and predictions and is
thing TO avoid. But there is one par
,!cu!ar point that all may understand
and agree Upon-that none who is de-
hcienr in common education shall te
certifcated to practice any sort Of
healing n Iowa
1t is ridiculous to assert that per-
son who can scarcely read and write,
without general information or learn
ing Of any kind is tit person TO hold

as a practitioner OF a learned probes
sion, that a few weeks training in any
system makes him fit arbiter O. life

machinery and its functions. Whatever.
the school Of healing if its practitioner
IS to be certifcated by the state Of
Iowa one imperative requisite should
be high schoo! diploma or its equiv
alent examina ton.
The requirements that began with
the general practice law and hAve been
strengthened since have resulted in

: OF shoes. ana ships

The cabaret consists OF large room
married men who have left home in
order to avoid being talked to death.
1t LIS also frequently by large GUAM
titles of married men who could stay
| away from home for nine months at
time without being missed by any
body except the booze solicitor. 6
The cabaret Is o playground for
for preventing the rural patron from
leaving town with money on his per-
son. There is something about the
atmosphere. as well as the faura and
flora, OF the average cabaret which
makes a prodigal son out OF the village

kiln dried retired merchant from an in
land town will stumble into a carabet
with intention OF buying lemon
soda and enjoying the scenery, but win
be made SO mellow by the music that
he will throw IS cents or a dollar away
with the utmost unconcern. This is one
reason why no married man should be
allowed TO visit our large cities without
being accompanied by square jawed
wife with high ideals and brawny
muscles.
The cabaret is a good illustration
full OF smoke, three-legged tables and
crimes against the laws of vocal music.
II also usually contains number OF
perfect ladies who smoke cigarets and
drink everything In the laboratory,
thus proving conciusively the accuracy
of the Darwinian theory. 1t Is a great
shock to an unsophisticated country
patron to enter a cabaret for the first
time and see somebody's wife or sister
or daughter dragging at cigaret and
trying to look like a woman. Man Is 50

tured. without being put out Of the

be up against the aspirin price as

we are in no way to blame? Why

WHO Is PAYING FOR IT?

Shenandoah Sentinel.1
We are in receipts OF a big lot Of
circulars and supposed o-be argu-
ments against equal suffrage, sent
us ostensibly from a bunch OF wom-
en- in Des Moines who don't want
to vote.
Now, II these dear creatures
don't want to vote. we think they
should be permitted to refrain.
But we can not conceive why they
want to play dog in the manager and
prevent those" women from voting
who want to do SO. @.-ce er 4 Ne.
1t may. be that the Des afoines
women are too ignorant to vote, but
here in Shenandoah we notice that
the women average up with the
men very well in general intelli-
gence. They read and keep well
posted on all subjects that pertain
to their activities. In school the
girls carry OF most of the honors.
More of them than boy go thru
the. high school. More Of them pat
Tonize the library More Of them
read books. They average up a little
better than the boys and men on
every question that pertains to moral
ity and good citizenship. In society and
business they are making good. They
are setting an example to men every
day. They form the bulk OF the church
memberships.
Yet when 1t comes to question Of
politics where We need their help we
class them with idiots and insane and
criminals and say they shall not vote.
|, And now these women in Dies
Moines are rejoicing in it and saying
that because they want to continue in
that class that all the other women
must be refused admission to the ranks
Of equality. The whole burden OF their
argument 60 is that a majority of
women don't want to vote.
OF course, that is not true, as they
can very easily find out, but sup
pose it were true, it would be no
argument. A majority Of the men
in the southern states do not vote once
in a dozen years. Should We therefore
selves of the privilege?
In many Of the large cities of the
north the majority OF the men legally
qualified to vote do not do SO. Should
we therefore disfranchise the men who
do vote?
