SOME NEW USES FOR SALT.
Now Important in Surgical Opcr-
aions.

The preservative, the cleansing and
the soothing effects of salt have been
known for ages. To this extent and
with some recognition of existing
practices. the use of saline solutions
in British military hospitals, noted in
a recent cable dispatch, is now new
The interesting points are in the eVo-
luton Of salt to the position Of a sole
healing agent, and in the method of
application by constant stream
which. in a single flowing. washes the
wounds. guards it from infection and
contributes healing power.
An ancient and common household
article thus supplants, after the initial
disinfecting, the highly scientific anti
septic appliances Of the day.
This elaboration OF an old remedy

HUGHES ADDRESS
PLEASES PARTY
Chief Value Was That 1t
Gave People of America
Picture Of the Man.

WASHINGTON, Aug. THE Re-
publican Publicity Association through
its president Hon. Jonathan Bourne,
jr- today gave out the following state
ment at its Washington headquarters:
The chief value of the Hughes
speech of acceptance lies not so much
IN the Information II contains as in
the picture and impression it gives the
American people of the man behind
the speech. In the coming election as
never before, we shall vote for men
not words. In the three years Just
past we have learned the futility of
voting for empty promises We have
had demonstration Of the useless
ness Of catchy phrases backed only by
"a weak and vacillating personality,
The American voter today is reading
between the lines to find the quality
OF the man. and when he reads the
Hughes speech he was impressed with
the sincerity, the dignity and the sta
bility OF the speaker
1T was "A straightforward statement
of facts and discussion of issues. with
out any OF that impulsive extrava-
bance Of utterance which has so often
led Mr. Wilson into humiliating re-
fractions and reversals. There was
no play TO the galleries. II was the
thought the feeling and the language
OF the statesman, rather than Of the
mere politician II was gratifying and
encouraging therefore, To those mil
lions OF Americans who have become
tired Of speeches made merely to
catch votes and who earnestly desire
as the head OF this nation man who
viii represent sound economic policies
al home and who will maintain the
nights and prestige OF the United
States and its citizens in every land

day forenoon at the chapel exercises on
the campus in Orono, when William
Howard Taft eth President Of the Unit
ed States gave an address on THE Du-
ties of Citizenship" AS on previous oc-
casions when he has spoken in Bangor
during the past two days, Professor Taft
was given a hearty and enthusiastic ova-
ton, both on introduction and at the end
of his discourse.
His audience was manfestly friendly
and appreciated the speakers depth of
thought, his demonstration of honest pa
triotism and, not least, his humorous sal
lies when he came across something that
appealed to him as a regular joke The
Taft chuckle was not absent and his au-
dience laughed with him again and again.
Mr.. Taft gave his hearers a lesson in
citizenship that doubtless some of those
who heard him will never forget. Obe-
dience to law is the first duty of the cit
izen, and although this is free coun-
try. it is absolutely necessary for all 20
obey the government that is In power.

The governor declared himself in favor
of universal military training, asserting
that the volunteer system had failed at
every point and would continue to fall.

that in thoughts of things military we
may overlook things civil, forgetful that
foes within may threaten as greatly as
foes without" he added.
