BURLESoUE SHoWS.-Many men
will no doubt remember the days
when by hook or crook they secretly
spent pleasant evening with the
boys in visiting a burlesque show
and were ever in fear that they might
be discovered. Not so today. Just
notice the many ultra-fashionable
pay homage to these places at regu-
lar intervals, and, further more, 1
have been witness to the fact that
very fine young ladies, whose educa-
ton had in no ways been neglected,
had requested their escorts to take
them to burlesque shows instead of
dances or parties, as was supposed
by their families or guardians.
What's the answer? Have times
changed, or is this a perfectly proper
course to pursue when seeking the
graces of young lady, Solomon.
FAIR -PLAY.-In the Tribune there
was an article entitled Medical
Work Puts America Ahead of the
World" Under title of medical cults
the writer calls attention to the rap
id multiplication of colleges and
schools which take up some partic-
ular form of treatment and then with
very low entrance requirement, or
none at all, after few brief months
or years of instruction bycorrespond-
ence or otherwise grant the degree
of doctor" 1t also calls attention to
the new medical act in Wisconsin
which provides the same educational
standards for osteopaths as are re-
quired of physicians.
All the osteopathic physicians
practicing there have complied with
