Poor Time to Quit Trying.

Senator Borah tries to array the Irish ir-
revocably against a league of nations by tell
ing them that it is nothing but a British
scheme. He might truthfully have added that
1t is also American scheme, French scheme,
an Italian scheme and a scheme which is in
tended eventually to embrace every civilized
nation that is willing to become identified with
l.. If the senator has a better scheme now is
the time to spring it. If not It is a good time
to keep his mouth shut.
Uncle Joe Cannon has just finished scout
ing tour of the DanvilIe district and he had
to admit when he returned to Washington that
he found the people back home were pretty
strongly in favor of a cure for war. Uncle Joe
himself, however does not believe that there
is any cure-at least he is too consistent a
politician to see merit in any prescription that
has the approval of a Democratic president
Uncle Joe, Senator Borah and others of
their political school ik@a good many
Rock Islanders who argue that law enforce
ment in this city isn't possible because it never
has been done TO any great extent. What's
the use" they say, "of putting candidates on
record? They may promise but that is as far
as it will ever go. You'll see the same old
conditions under the new administration"
Fortunately for the nation and for Rock
Island there some who remain optimistic. Even
If a thing never has been done it does not
necessarily follow that it never be done
A league of nations may not put an immediate
end to wars and efforts to clean up Rock Is
land may meet with still further setbacks. In
neither case, however is the possibility of fail
ure any excuse to quit trying.

Thompson for Governor.

Suggestion that Floyd E. Thompson of this
city, who has taken his seat the STATE SUI
preme bench, is good guberndtorial material
is made by the Chicago Journal. Political
leaders in all parts of the state are taking in
terest in him as a result of his election April
in the face OF substantial numerical advan-
tage in the opposition party The Journal cred
its him with qualities which would bring him
support from independents and members OF
other parties as well Democrats"
Mention of his name for even higher polit-
ical honors is a great compliment to Mr.
Thompson, especially coming from a Demo-
cratic paper, and is one that It will be well
for his friends to bear in mind. For the pres
emit however, it is probable that the new JUS
tice will have other matters to attend to and
will be well content to remain out of the polit-
zeal arena. He is young man and already he
has won a position of great power and respon-
sibility The future holds much promise for
him if he makes good, of which there is not
the slightest doubt. Under the circumstances
he can we'll afford to wood and bide his
time

ProphyIaxis of Hay Fever

So-called hay fever is due to diff
ferent pollens in different cases.
DR.. j. l.. Goodale has studied some
$50 cases of hay fever, of which 90
were caused by the pollens of vari-
Gus grasses, 237 by ragweed pollen,
five from maple, four from rose,
three from oak, one from willow,
and five from birch. OF these 800
cases 123 have received desensitiz-
ing prophylactic treatment prior to
the arrival of the hay fever season
or upon the annual return, of the
ailment, and of the cases so treat
ed seven showed no Improvement,
46 showed improvement as com
pared with previous experiences OF
tie patients but still had trouble
some symptoms, SO cases showed
marked Improvement, and five pa
tients had no return of the hay
fever at all for two years.
The immunity or partial immun-
ity conferred on the hay fever suf-
ferer by desensitizing pollen ex-
tract injections is only temporary,
( lasting not many weeks. There
fore the prophylactic treatment
must be administered each season.
1t is best begun some ten weeks
prior to the time of year in which
the symptoms usually develop in a
given case, though good effects may
be obtained later or even after the
annual attack has developed.
DIR. Goodale has found that an
injection of one to three minims of
one-to-fifty-t solution of
extracts of the following pollens
gives satisfactory results: Will
low, poplar, maple, birch, oak,
grass, rose and ragweed. CThese
pollens are commonly responsible
in New England, but other pollens
would undoubtedly be more eff
fective in other parts of the coun-
try.)
The first injection causes in
nearly all cases a local reaction at
the point of injection, a swelling an
inch in area more or less, lasting
three days or Whereabouts. This
is an exceedingly encouraging
sign, indicating that the specific
caustic pollen extract has been Sc
lected for the treatment. The dose
is doubled the second time and
each succeeding time, and the in
tervals between injections are US
ually four or five days, though
smaller injections may be given
advantageously if the hay fever
has already begun. From six to
fifteen injections are generally re-
CURED A large proportion of hay
fever sufferers so treated become
free of symptoms in the course of d
week or ten days, whereas the at

A host of lovers came to pretty
dazzled Vesta Brill when it be-
came known that Albert Winsted,
the queer old hermitlike oddly of
Brompton, had left her his entire
fortune. He had subsisted for ten
years alone in an old mansion
still pointed out as the show place
of the little town.
The strange change in his ways
had come after he had been abroad
sor a wear. Rumor was that he had
welded a native princess in India.
She had died and her loss, it was
said, had broken his heart. There
was a story af1oat that he had
brought back from India a portrait
or statue, depicting the woman he
had loved and lost, and that one
room in the house was devoted to
her as a sort of a shrine.
AIvord Marston. young lawyer.

estate. 1t was he who appeared
at the modest, pleasant home of
Vesta one evening and informed
her of the rare good fortune she

her mother suffered a severe dis
appointment, gradually her dreams
of luxury and social eminence fad
ed away.
To his amazement Marston had
discovered that the old mansion
was mortgaged for two-thirds of
its value. He began negotiations
with city agent who was look
ing for a building suitable for a
small sanitarium- He called upon
Vesta frequently to report pro-
gress and the companionship be-
came a source of pleasure to both.
At the end of two months Mars
ton told Vesta of his love for her
and they became engaged. They
were taking a stroll one after
noon when he remarked:
Il am going to look over the
old mansion. 1t is all that is left
of the estate. I understand that
the neighborhood boys have been
making it a target for the slug
shots, and as you may eventually
get a few hundred dollars out of
it we must keep the property in as
good condition as possible"
Marston let himself into the
house, and as they passed through
the chill, gloomy apartments Vesta

years.

Marston appeared at the Brill home

ing intelligence to impart. He
found Vesta alone and the friendly
warmth of her greeting stirred him
considerably.

news for you scarcely agreeable,
but it is necessary that 1 tell you
of the same. When I went over to

mass of papers that turned out to
be mostly receipts for costly jew

1t was fine thing for Premier Clemenceau
to do to intercede for the life of Emile Coffin,
who tried to assassinate him. and secure COM
mutation of sentence to 10 years imprison-
ment. 1t not done for political effect, for
the premier is an old man and probably will
not again ask preferment. By the time Coffin
has served his term likely Clemenceau will

feed him also, cereals, soft boiled
egg, bread or crackers with but
ter. But he won't rest till he gets
his nursing. Please tell me how
to wean him. MRS. r. w. d.
Answer-Every baby should be
weaned before he is old enough to
vote. The way to wean a baby is
to give him one less breast feeding
each day for about a week, and
then no more under any circum-
stances. The customary troubles
with the breast are avoided by a
very strict let-alone policy; that is
let no one persuade you to pump,
rub, or otherwise treat the breast !;
never apply anything purporting
to dry it up" Apply comfortably
snug bandage or brassier; take a
single dose of salts or any other
saline cathartic; and on no pre-
text touch or disturb the breast

ence here.

there any treatment mother may
secretly administer to a boy of 16
who has become a victim of the
cigaret habit? MRS. F. c. l..
Answer should be glad to send
you or him suggestions to aid in
overcoming the habit. He must
overcome it if he is ever to amount
to anything. No one can trust a
cigaret smoking boy.
Well, Dads Right for Once-My
father claims the pores are for ex-
erection only, but l claim that one
breathes not only through the nose
and mouth but also through the
pores. l claim also that medicinal
applications to the skin are taken
in through the pores, and that wa
ter can be taken in this way, too.
w. S. G..
Answer-Dad's contention is cor
rect, and yours is wrong. Pores"
are the mouths of the ducts or ex-
cretory tubes of sweat and oil
glands; nothing is absorbed
through these glands, neither medi-
cine nor water nor air.
