(HOlvOke TRANSCRIPT

y correspondent of The Railway Age
finds fault with the standard sleeping
car. which, he says, has been little inn
proved since it was introduced. He de
clares that it is the deteStation of trav-
elers and a violation of all the nicer
senses of modesty and comfort. Queer
that such a complaint should be voiced
in a railway journal, the public has made
no kick and seems Satisfied with cOndi-
tons as they are. Here is the complaint !:
a bed-chamber for both sexes in
which the occupants are separated by
Tapping. ill-fastened curtains and III
which these travellers are obliged to wrig-
gle out of and into their clothing in a
series of acrObatic movements. half of
them climbing to their rooSts by step
ladders. is an institution which is hardly
up to our twentieth century ideas of mod
eSty or comfort. Ii would seem that in
ventive genius which has evolved the
folding apartment in our cities might
overcome these crude and offensive con-
ditions in our sleepers. y series of ex-
tremely narrow StaterOoms with traverse
berths and Just sufficient floor space in
which to stand on ones feet while dress.
ing or undressing is one theory which il
would seem might be put into practice
by inventive genius. 1t would be posi-
bic that such an arrangement might be
worked out for single or double bertl
combinations and without a serious sac
riticc of pasSenger-carrying capacity
Solid partitions would. of course. replace
the miserable makeshift of present cur
tainS, and decency and comfort make {
night journey a pleasure. Let there b,
some real progress in sleeping-car int

A Point of Ethics.
CRutland Herald.)

Considerable Comment was caused
some time ago by the frank admission
of a Chicago surgeon that he did not
propose to employ extraordinary meas
ures to save deformed and hopelessly
! handicapped babies to be a burden on
society and their families.
Sentimental people declared he was a
heartless monster. who proposed to '.Iet
babies die rather than employ the ex-
pert aid of science to perpetuate tfeir
pitiful, manned bodies and their dark
ened minds to a life of misery and suf-
fering, yet there was an element of
Spartan wisdom in the surgeons posi-
lion.
This is opened up from a new angle
by the recent death of the Black
twins in Chicago, whose bodies were
joined together in a fashion similar to
the S1amese twins, made famous by the
late Z. L. Barnum. Confronted with
the certain death of one, the family of
the freaks" refused to submit the I'M
t~ortunates to an operation, the result
being the death of both.
Luther b. Johnson, writing from San
Antonio, Texas. calls attention to a pair
of Mexican children, Joined like the
be small children (bOth girls) where
upon one of them developed a condition
that threatened the life of both.
One must surely die, decreed the sur
geons; would the family consent to an
operation that would doom the weaker
to death, with the hope that the
stronger would survive? The family ap-
parently offering no objection, a DR..
Urrutia performed the operation.
Johnson describes the result as fol-
lows in the current issue of the Ran
doIph Herald and News
In operating, DR.. Urrutia found that
the children had two hearts. occupying a
single cavity. 1t was necessary to ere
ate separate cavities, of course. They
had but one liver. 1t was divided, the
larger portion being given to the health
Ter child, who also claimed the one per-
feet gall bladder. As anticipated. the
weaker child died within three hours,
but the other recovered quickly and is
now a perfectly normal and healthy
child"
Surgeons and medical men viii not
have much doubt about tine propriety of
the latter decision, even though it meant
the certain death of a human being. and
so far as that goes the common sense of
the layman will probably approve it just
as they will condemn the attitude of
the Black family, but see where it
leads. 1t arouses a most interesting line
of speculation, at all events.

Opposed to Animal Acts

TO the Editor Of the Eccnirv Public Ledger:
Sir--There is an organization called
the Jack London League which carries
its principles against training animals
for exhibition so far that its members
are pledged to walk out of any amuse-
ment place when an animal act is
started. Whatever doubts there may be
Of the need o. such an organization
are lessened by recent incident in
Madison Square Garden in New York
not long ago. Five tigers and pam
ther were being put through their tricks
for the first time before a crowd. II
was evident the animals were acting
against their will. The panther became
unru'y. The trainer, girl, finally
brought down pole OIL the beasts head
with resounding whack. This was
not enough, and so she drew revolver.
fired in the panther's face and brought
him in line. Naturally, she also brought
down the house.
The animal trainer always has cour-
age when the animals are dangerous.
Sometimes the only advantage he has
over his charges is hts superior will.
Rut it IL will power put to poor use.
While some animals, such as dogs and
horses, often seem to enjoy their part
of the show, 1t is easy to see that

British Empire might have been seen

clamored for his signature. Then In the
late afternoon he went back to WORK.

Swearing VS.. "cussIns"

To tie Editor OF the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir-What. it might be questioned.
is the difference, If any, between cuss-
ing and swearing! II never swear, "
testified q woman witness few days
ago in court. Il might use few
cuss words such as damn but that s
ALL"
The matter not having been one of
the vital issues in the case. the Court
did not attempt to differentiate as be-
tween the two terms, but contented
itself with the chivalrous observation
that it should be womans prcroga-
tive to swear if she wants to.
AS Il matter of fact in my humble
opinion. the witness probably was JUS
titled in making the distinction The
expression, mot to care n damn" ac-
cording to the dictionary, may be
swearing or it may merely be slang
and the equivalent of mot to care in
the least"
