LICENSED BOLSHEVISM.

Citizens who are at all interested in preserving
respect for courts and law will applaud the effort
Of Judge Chester Montgomery to eliminate delay in
trials OF criminal
There Is a very wide and fastgrowng belief that
the criminal laws are a joke and that justice has
become matter OF obtaining the trickiest or most
persuasive attorney
The accused criminal even If guilty. finds escape
easy if he has the money with which hire
lawyer who Will use every safeguard originally
intended as a protection In special and unusual
cases as a trick and a subterfuge to block and
hinder the action Of courts.
Laymen who try 20 interfere with courts or who

substantial justice really effective in
destroying government than any red.
The boosted and admitted superiority
British system OF criminal law over American
method lies in the sureness and the swiftness with
which trials follow arrest in the Empire.
Innocent men do not often need time for their
defense It is the guilty who are driven to expe-
dents Of building up carefully constructed alibs
who hope for the death or departure OF all wit
nesses. and invoke delay as a means OF escaping
justice,
The small percentage OF crime really punished IN
this country apparent that few OF criminal
tendencies or temptations are deferred by fear OF
punishment.
Let il be hoped that the first result OF the policy
announced by the local Judge Will be some reform
on the part OF such lawyers at the local bar whose
methods OF delay and obstruction make them
undesirable citizens than any OF their clients.

RECIPE FOR SUCCESS.

He viii be a great success. His wife IS such
clever woman"
Theatrical audiences in New York laugh heartily
each night a those from one OF the successes
n the year. Why laugh?
Unless the wave OF smiles confined knowing
woman who rejoicing in finding kernel Of
truth in the great OF epigrams. generally
false that reception Of this comment is not easily
understood
From time immemorial great successes have been
built around the cleverness OF wives Many more
have been built by wives whose cleverness reached
the stage of genius where they succeeded in
cealng the fact that they were clever at all.
The Father OF His Country not TO be suspected
OF any purpose Of modifying his devoted Martha
gave to his wife much OF the credit for his accom-
p'ishments. To her he paid the tribute. OF
inspiration, but of sage counsel and advice.
Many OF the great fortunes Of the country have
been the creations Of combination Of conserva-
tiveness which is Characteristic of womans minds.
and the daring of a husband who unafrad to
take enormous chances when confident Of his
ground.
Poets have admitted their obligation to wives
who inspired them. but these have not often
been the clever of companions merely beautiful
the afectonate.
Clever wives 10 the past have been limited in
their desire for accomplishment to working through
smenable husbands. They have been limited TO
using their cleverness inspire and direct
husbands who only clever enough TO take
their advice.
The clever wife OF today IS restricted and.
the years roll around. who depend for their
success upon borrowed brains will very likely
discover that their wives have used their cleverness
Cor their particular projects and that they
snunted into the background to be known only
the dull drag a bright
ria civ assfou old
recipe for success Just how far the success OF
depend upon their wives talents and keenness
will never be known. But it is quite safe to
that the epigram which provokes laughter might
be repeated in all solemnity from Chautauqua
platform and receive approval and appreciation.

1t is wise for doctors to be very
careful in their statements about
heart disease and possible brain tu-
mors. Both these conditions are
deceptive. They may or may not be
serious. They are not easy to de-
termine. In short, there Is such un-
certainty about them that the patient
should be given the benefit Of the
doubt. He should not be unneces-
sarily frightened by being told he
IS in a bad way"
Many cases of heart disease, even
serious cases, never cause the victim
trouble, or. at least, do not shorten
his life. Spontaneous cure Of brain
tumor is not unheard of by any
means.
There are several varieties Of
brain tumor. Some are OF such a
nature that they would be danger

Others are serious because of their
particular location in the brain. The
sy mptoms of tumOr are due 10 the

cause there are many other causes
for severe and continued headache.

is a tumor. It requires skill and ex-

DEAR BILL:
The controversy over who

famous as the conundrum, How

only in the interest OF truth and

water small fish that weighed
only one or two pounds, because I
did not want my stringer covered
with such small fry. Most OF his
vacation was devoted to playing
golf and canoeing.
