Protest On Bootleg
Price Leads To
His Arrest.

According to Clinton Scott,
steps should be taken, by an out
ragged public to lower the price
demanded for bootleg whiskey.
Scott approached Policeman
W. H.. Browning, of the Sec
ond \ precinct, yesterday and.
asked the ~officer to- arrest a
bootlegger who had charged him
so cents for the first drink and
a dollar for the second.
The officer sympathized with
Scott, but said that he would
first have to arrest Scott for
being drunk.
Judge Mcmahon imposed a
$40 fine.

I'm spite of recent extensive in
vestigations on the danger of carbon
monoxide poisoning by inhaling the

ignorance still exists concerning the
magnitude of the hazard in running
engines in small private garages"
Harry K. Thaw can be made a
useful citizen by advanced scientific
methods, the division of chemistry
of medicinal products was told
by DR.. William j. A. Bailey, direc-
tor of the American Endocrine Lab
oratories of New York.
1.-THE case of Harry K. Thaw is
q bitter indictment of our medical
knowledge" said DIR. Bailey. 1--WE
still cage the mental spore to keep
him from doing harm. We still
believe that society must be pro-
tected by incarcerating the individ
ual instead Of curing him."
DIR. Bailey gave as his opinion
that Thaw, with countless thou.
sands of others, was affected by
endocrine unbalance, which caused
physiological alterations.
EndOcrine Glands Blamed.
"We have too long regarded in
sanity as purely a brain condition"
DR.. Bailey declared. 1.-THE seat is
unquestionably in the endocrine
glands, which absolutely control
every brain function"

would transform the patient into
a useful citizen.
To-day, the decision of the sane.

laymen who have not the slightest
idea of what it is all about" the
speaker said. Brain experts, men

agreement in every case"
DIR. Bailey told the chemists that
the Thaw case and the fact that
over, $4,000 people commit suicide
yearly in America should awaken
scientists to an intensive study of
mental alterations along the lines
Of endocrine analysis"
IF we look more to the endocrine
glands and less to the head" he
said, 1--WE have an excellent chance
Of Graduating instantly.
Glands Are Important.
1--WE have cornered alteration,
disease, old age and, in fact, life
and death themselves in the en-.

glands must center future efforts

'or which the world has sought, one
which now seems to be truly real
