More justly than Hamlet the present
generation may complain that the
times are out of joint. Never, we sup
pose, has the world been so generally
disturbed. Crime and mystery are
rampant, says the London Daily Elk
press. Thrilling human stories of muir
ders, suicides, thefts and disappear
ances have become so commonplace
that we have gradually ceased TO
realize them. Not only England, but
France, Italy, Germany, and the Unit
ed States tell the same tale. The rea-
son is not far TO seek. The world is in
a ferment. New ideas, new standards
of morality claim the attention OF
mankind. Not for the first time! In Il
few years the ferment will subside
and the old-established conventions
which in reality change very little
will once more command general allie
glance.

Preventative Medicine.

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventative measures. 1t IS
easier and better to prevent than to
cure. Pneumonia, one of the most
dangerous diseases that medical men
have to contend with, often follows
a cold or an attack of the grip. The
cold prepares the system for the re-
~ception and development of the pneu-
monia germ. The longer the cold
hangs on, the greater the danger.
Take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
as soon as the first indication of a
cold appears so as to get rid of 1T
with the least possible delay. 1t is
folly to risk an attack of penumonia
when this remedy may be obtained
for a trifle.

1t may be that the $50 marks offered
at auction in Berlin for a wax figure
of President Wilson does not represent
an imposing number Of dollars. but the
important thing is the relative prices
paid, says the Philadelphia Record. 1t
is 80 marks more than was paid for
the efigy of Marshal Joffre, and IL is
really astonishing that so good a price
was paid for the victor Of the first
battle of the Marine, and much more
so that 10,O50 marks was paid for the
present French premier. The indi-
vidual extremes were $4,000 marks for
the recent kaiser, and n Russian
ruble for Kerensky. But the star
price was $4,000 marks for a lot of
noted criminals. How many there were
of them we are not told but ever If
there were many, the fact that the
rogue's galley in the aggregate brought
five times as much as William HOhen-
zollern is notable, and it adds to the
extensive evidence that while mankind
ought to be chiefly interested in saints,
1t really finds the criminals much
more interesting.
