MUSIC WILL HELP INVALID
Physicians Are Beginning to Believe
More and More In the Good Effects
OF Sweet Strains.

During the thirteenth century, when
the Arabs dominated a large portion
of Europe and were carrying the
torch of learning through that period,
they established great hospitals for
the treatment of all kinds of ailments.
A striking feature of some of these
hospitals was a music room, where
musicians played continuously through
out the "a hours for the benefit of the
patients. The Arab physicians of that
day believed that music had very
positive therapeutic effect.
Recently an analysis of the effects
of various types of music has been
made by DR.. Thomas J. Mays, which
may be epitomized as follows: Ma
jOr music is a tonic to the emotions
which may be compared to stimulant
dose of strychnine or quinine, while
minor music depresses emotional ac-
tivity in a manner comparable to bro
mide or a sleeping potion. The APP
parent objections to this theory are
easily met; and Doctor Mays believes
that music as an agent In the treat
ment of consumption has probably a
stronger claim on the scientific atten-
ton of the medical profession than
many of the remedies that are in use
at the present time. Keeping in mind
the undercurrent of tribulation and
oppression that is nearly always pres
ent in the minds of those suffering
from consumption. it would seem prob
able that by far the larger number of
cases would receive benefit from vari-
GUS forms of major music And the
same would be true of any form of
chronic disease.
For stages of high mental or nerv-
Gus tension, minor music is Indicated.
And in this connection it is significant
that music has been one of the sthera
peutic measures used in all our great
insane asylums for more than gener-
alton.

Mohammedan Law Barred.

Mohammedan law does not run in
England was decided by the lord chief
justice recently. Doctor Mir-Auw&-
ruddin, a MOhammedan, and member
of the English bar, married in 1913, an
English lady named Ruby Hood After
some time they separated, and the lady
lived apart from her husband. The
latter then began proceedings and OBJ
tanned an order for restitution of con-
jugal rights, but this was not complied
with, and proceedings for divorce were
then begun by the wife, but were dis
missed. Now, according to Mohamme
dan law, if the husband gives his wife
writing of enforcement" or as it is
called "Talak," this constitutes di-
vorce. Notwithstanding did this and
then applied for marriage license to
enable him to marry again. This was
refused and the lord chief Justice sit
ting with Justices Darling and Bray,
upheld the refusal on the ground that
as the applicant was married in Eng
land under the English law, to an Eng
fish lady, the original marriage held
good and must be dissolved in an Eng
fish court of law. The religious law
of the applicant was not recognized.

operation and constructiveness. This
feeling has been fostered by CONNER
cial bodies, by religious bodies, by
professional bodies, by newspapers,
with the result that during the past
two years, and perhaps longer, there
has been little of the ugly spirit in this
state formerly manifested.
Do we want that ugly spirite back
again?
We put this up to the legislators
from no selfish motives. We have
only one interest in mind and that is
Idaho, a comparatively young state in
point of years, an infant in point CT
promise if it shall not be dwarfed in
mind and in body.
Is there anything in the division
proposal worth the deterioration that
would flow from it? Is it not sound
in logic and wise in business to con-
tend for only continued unity but for
a growth of it, for it is as true of a
state as of a nation that, divided, it
falls at least measurably.
If it were not true, if division pro-
NOTED growth and prosperity, Tho larg-
err states of the Union would have been
split up long ago.

BOISE is PEEvED'

From the Statesman: For the first
time in history the Idaho legislature
is attracting not only national but al
so international attention. The con-
troversy over Japenese ownership of
land in this state has stirred embass-
les and state departments to action,
and now it appears that the proposal
10 divide the state is also held to be
worthy of interest
Here's what the New York Times,
one of the leading democratic news
papers of the country, has to say in
the issue of February II about the di-
yisisn fight in our democratic legis-
lature;
Four States From Two
). The annual tragi-comedy in the Ida
no legislature for the division of the
state, the annual pickering between
Representatives of the fruitraisers,
stockmen, and farmers of the south
and the lumberers and miners of the
north, would ordinarily have drawn
the need of one melodious tear or
laugh from students of the hearty.
western genius.
If a member from south Idaho in
troduced a bill to remove the state
university from septentrional Moscow
to some merid.onal site like Boise or
Nampa, ne merely furnished pre-
text for the inevitable annual effort
of hardy northern Idaho to tear and
deracinate itself from the soft south.
Why can't brethren dwell together in
unity?
And when division rears it's horrid
head in West Virginia, when bill in
the legislature proposes to allow
Brooke, Hancock, Marshall, and Ohio
counties 10 form themselves into a
separate state if they will take upon
themselves West Virginia's $12,000,000
debt to Virginia surely some more
sympathetic explanation should have
that the people of Wheeling and other
citizens of the incurably thirsty under
bone dry" prohibition that they
would cheerfully pay $12 100000 for a
new and wet state. These velleities
or passions of division are curious and
unusually permanent.
All of this publicity and widespread
interest may be gratifying to the men
who are stirring it up, but there's
question as. to whether the causes of
the interest are fattering to the state
The limelight is all very we'll at
times, but it may show up defects as
well as projections.

From the Capital News: There is
small chance of idaho being divided
by congress, for about the last thing
that body wants is two more United
States senator's from the west. More
over, the national lawmakers would
view with mingled sentiments the
prospect of four United States SEN
ators to AROUND 100000 population
100000 per senator. Any division res
olution, therefore, would, in our judg-
ment, have little effect at Washing
ion as a political presentment.
There will be an effect over the
nation, though, and it will not be help
full to this state. The proposed div
ision of such small state, in point
of numbers, would be looked upon as
a popular division here that would
hardly be inviting to homeseekers and
investors. We would acquire reput-
alton to which we are not entitled,
for there are no such marked dividing
lines of public sentiment in Idaho as
the resolution would indicate to those
unfamiliar with Idaho conditions.
But the greatest harm would come
from the creation of dissension that
does not now exist.
If the senate shall approve the |
house resolution agitation will natural
ly follow and agitation breeds hatred
and stagnatiOn.
There has been a noticeable substi-
tuition of harmful influences by CO.

We have institutions of which we are
proud. Why not determine right now
to quit harassing or threatening them

We have made good start as a
state. Why not determine right now
to quit menacing it with all sort of
notwithstanding schemes and let
it grow.
The best and surest way to make
Idaho a big state is for all of us to be
big in spirit and in action.
