The fact that tho government OF

Hotels and restaurants should use

These are tho conclusions OF DR..

In two institutions tho dishes are
washed with hot water and live

washed in hot water, but there is
plenty Of It and 1t is hot enough.
Making dishes sterile 50 far as
consumption is concerned Is not a
difficult matter II there is steam or
plenty Of hot water and 1t is prop
erly used.
Confirmatory Of the need Of thor
ough washing and sterilization OF
dishes and other eating utensils are
some findings OF Surgeon Gen. j. g.
Cummings in connection with
measles.
For soldiers the death rate OF
measles is due not to the original
disease, but to the bacteria which
are engrafted on the original cause.
Soldiers would get through measles
very we'll il 1t we're not for the strep-
tccocci which took the occasion OF
the measles attack to get In body |

In olden times they called 1t TAX
ing cold.
"You must be careful not to catch
cold while you have the measles"
was the way our fathers phrased 1t.
Cummings says about the same
thing, but he adds, 1--WE catch cold
not from drafts, but from infected
eating utensils and polluted hands"
Therefore he insists that all sick

Learning Through Experience.

One of the little lessons that is percolating
into the public mind just now is that "blue
sky" law is just about what its name implies, a
bit of blue sky, and little more. Intended to
protect unwary investors against shrewd and un-
scrupulous statesmen of worthless stock, it has
apparently had the effect OF encouraging such
sale. A license to solicit subscriptions to capital
issues has too frequently been translated into an
Endorsement by the state Of such issue, or at
least to lend countenance to the representations
of the salesmen through the implied recognition
OF the necessity or legitimacy OF the enterprise.
As matter OF course, the state accepts no re-
sponsibility for any undertaking beyond requr-
ing that its promoters make certain showing
before permission to sell stock is given. In
vestors do not always protect themselves as they
should fail to make prudent investigation, and
allow themselves to be over-persuaded by the
smooth-talking salesman. These might be more
wary if they were assured in advance that the
state had not inquired at all into the matter, such
assurance to be given by the repeal OF the pro-
vision OF the law that requires the issuance of
license TO promoters. Reinforce this by strength
ening the penalties Of the law give il real teeth,
and then le. the swindlers oprate at their peril.
The attorney general says the constitutionality
Of the law does not figure in the prosecutions
now under way, for the indictments are brought
on specific charges that are ofenses under the
criminal eade. However this may be, the lesson
plainly is that the state should either assume en-
tire control OF all stock-promotion schemes, giv-
ing its entire endorsement and support, or It
should fithdraw entirely and make II plain to
both buyer and seller that they are proceeding
on their own responsibility. and that swindlers
will be punished whenever ovestaken.

Cole Bleose Reoppeors
(From the Washington Star,

Again, after several years, the
name Of Cole Blease appears in
political news from South Carolina.
It Is in connection with the next
gubernator1al race, which takes place
next year.
Cole Blease has not announced.
but an announcement is expected.
In public addresses and interviews
he is flirting with the subject. He
has had just enough of politics to
give him a taste for the game, and
just enough success as player to
enable him to bear losses with equa-
nin1ity. He has suffered some Losses.
He is in private life now as the re-
suit of defeat for seat In the
United States senate.
Starting in political life as pro-
tege and imitator Of Benjamin TILL
man, Cole Blease soon attracted as
much attention at home as his spon-
sor and model, for bold outgtvings
and extravagances Of expression. He
seemed to cultivate invective, and
to depend upon such resources for
silencing a rival and carrying point.
At last, as often happens. the imi-
tator and the initiated fell out. A
dispute arose as to which had first
exclaimed In public speech, In re-
ply to a citation Of the constitution in
a debate, ITO hell with :he const!-
tution!" They were never afterward
friendly. The older man toned down
as he advanced in years, while the
younger became harsher OF tongue
and more extreme OF view.
When Cole Blease several years
ago was defeated for the senate,
the popular judgment at home and
elsewhere was that South Carolina
had lost taste for men Of his type,
and was returning TO men Of the
type of Hampton and Butler. Was
that a hasty judgment? Or shall we
see it confirmed next year If Cole
Blease enters for the sovernorship
ments he proclaimed at that time
on his record in office and the senti-
