Newt" seemed to be looking for
sport so Edison took him to Mrs.
Earls' apartment where he left him

own car and leave the taxi. He re-
turned with Hardacre.
Then Newton made his fatal mis-
take-he showed a roll" when he

muttered something about justice.
Newton's money was returned be-
fore the trial and he left the city,

fuse to testify.
Mrs. Earls and Newton were
remanded to the custody of proba-

Editorial Comment
CHURCH AND STATE IN MEXICO

(NcW
Reports that settlement of the controversy between
the Mexican Government and the Catholic church has
been reached may find confirmation. What seems
certain is that both sides are seeking way of peace
what may be called endemic revolution in Mexico 1t
is partly the high expense Of the army operations
debt. And while except possibly in the State Of Jaisco
Catholics have had direct connection with resort
to arms against the Federal Government there can be
little doubt that resentment at the official regulation
Of church activities has had good deal do with
flaming the sporadic spirit of revolt. Even Gales
must be ready for any reasonable compromises and
with Presidential election impending. out of which
General Oregon is almost certain emerge Presi-
dent again. the motives for calming the excitement
heightened On its side. the Mexican Catholic hierarchy
must be anxious again to in full those religious
services for which the great bulk Of the Mexican people
have long looked to it.
The Catholic church in Mexico cannot expect the
Government to make sweeping concessions. There are
certain points which have been fixed in Mexican policy
for seventy years, and from those Fundamentally there
can be retreat One Of them is the naturalization
OF ecclesiastical property. This first established
under Comonfort and the Constitution Of 1857. 1t has
been reaffrmed and strengthened in the and exist
ing Mexican Constitution But this has not implied in
the past, and need not necessarily today, rigid
restriction upon the spiritual activities Of the Church
The main trouble IN the past two has grown out
OF the laws, DEGREES, requiring the registration of
priests, with limit upon the number that may be at
tached to any given parish church. This provision
appears to have been carried harshy bungngly
so as to give the greatest possible oense Yet there
has been feeling among even American Catholics that
the Church authorities in Mexico unwise in MAX
ing OF this breaking point, and in their indignant
protest suspending church services 50 long as what
they considered an ntoerabe system Of supervision
and control by civilians in force. Now it pre-
cisely in such matters that of ad ustment may
be found The regulations may be modified. while leav
ing the governmental principles unimpared.
This long and embittered religious strife in Mexico
has inevitably been source Of anxiety to great many
Americans who not Catholics There is no need
to speak Of the distress which has brought upon the
Catholic Church in this country. If there now to be
appcasement and settlement, nowhere will the an
nouncement be received with eagerness and salts
faction than in the United States, and particularly 50
if it should appear that American efforts have contrib
uted to the result. The encouraging reports of an
early end of the sad controversy have been received
here with lively interest and hope.

believe that surplus of
starches and sugars in the menu
and the lack of certain resistant

the blood that the parasite can de-
velop, and when this deficiency is
corrected, the parasite is automat-
ically destroyed.
In the cure Of malaria it is ad-
visable that the patient employ some
form of acid fruit for his fast. Only
one kind Of fruit should be used
as meal. l have found that the
grapefruit is of special value. It
seems that the organic acid of these
fruits has very cleansing effect
upon the blood, and the mineral
elements which they also contain
are very valuable blood tonics. This
fast should be maintained for sew

1t is advisable that the patient be
sweated to assist in the removal of
the liquid toxins from his system.
This sweating should not be too
frequent, as sufficient time must
elapse between these treatments for
the patient to recuperate his
strength. Light sunbaths and ex-
ercises will assist in speeding the
recovery.
There are many who suffer from
a chronic form of malaria. 1t is
quite common to find patients, who
in their younger days have lived in
