ONE REMEDY, SUICIDE. - The

best remedy for wOrkingman suf-
feTing from a chronic disease is sui
eide. An acute disease may run its
course and sUbside, but a chronic
ailment must be eradicated by the
direct intervention of man.
The standing of the medical and
surgical professions in Chicago at
present is so low that 80 per cent of
them on the score Of lack of ability
are barred from intervening in the
war between health and disease
waged in the body. They would Un-
dOubtedly be pro-disease. The other
10 per cent who have ability are in
such demand by those who have
money that their services are forever
beyond the reach of the poor man.
The grasping cOmmercialism that
envelopes the medical profession in
Chicago has made the secOnd-stOTy
man and burglar a respectable citi-
zen in comparison. Few are the lives
sacrificed needlessly by the burglar
and those few are given wide public
ity. l wish I could compliment the
M. ID. S likewise. Undoubtedly the
wide publicity in case of the burglar
and the secrecy in the case Of the
doctor is widely responsible for the
low morality resultant from the
burglars profession; the high NOR
taity resultant from the doctors pro-
feSsiOn.
Yes, there is a tremendous amount
of suffering in the city which could
be relieved by proper medical atten-
ton, but the small percentage Of
physicians capable of eradicating a
disease without eradicating the or
ganism containing the disease are
monOpOlized by the mOneyed class.
This leaves the workers without a
remedy for chronic ailments, except
suicide Many of them hire a scrub
doctor to do that.

Mark Hanna,s Aztec Servant.

An introduction TO some Of the lead
ers will show that there are brains as
well as bullets behind the Zapata
movement
Gen. Alfredo Serratos was former
lawyer, who had made a good record
rs soldier. 1t will surprise Ameri-
cans to learn that he was at one time
a servant of Mark Hanna, the noted
politician of Ohio. His history is
romantic one. AS a homeless waif he
was taken to the United States by an
American. who promised to give him
an education. In Cleveland. O., the
American died, and young Serratos
was left stranded. For three years he
worked at the home of Senator Hanna
moving lawns and caring for horses.
Later the young Mexican returned to
Mexico and studied law. He speaks
three languages fuently. In the con-
vention cabinet he was elected secre-
tary of war. These were some of the
men who were Zapata's lieutenants
and advisers.-Christian Herald.

apparently very old. They represent

That Emblem Stands for Ten

1t is beautiful thing to know that
the first armed contingent that carried
the American flag to the front on the
allied lines was drawn from the men
of the Red Cross ambulance. and that
the first official division of the Amer.
lean army to land in England for serv-
ice in the great war was a hospital
unit. 1t is beautiful to think, too, that
The same papers that told of General
Pershing's visit to the tomb of Ma
poleon. the master soldier. had also the
story of a splendid fund that is being
raised To furnish and send II France
complete base hospital in memory OF
General PerShing's wife.
It is good TO feel that our alag of
the stars" is standing for tenderness
and pity more than for the pride of
war, and that the blood with which 1t
must so soon be stained with the scars
and rents which it must SO soon re-
ceiye will be as wounds borne not for
glory's sake but for the healing Of the
nations.
For we have come at last to know
that it is sacrifice alone that buys for
US the high things of the spirit; that
blood is the price of soul sovereignty
and of national renewal of heart We
accept again this inserutable mystery.
1t is Gods decree.
Our starred flag, with its new
wounds. its new stains of blood. is the
beacon of our faith, the emblem of our
trust in the coming of that war-bought
peace to which our sword is pledged
