THE RETURN OF THE BISON

The American buffalo, or bicon, nearly cxterminatcd a
few years ago by the uncontrolled activities of hunters
and so-callcd "spor:smen." is coming back.
To be sure, the great plains of the west arc not getting
back the big herds they once had. But in Alaska and
Canada colonies of bison, established in the open range
lands a few years ago by nature lovers, are multiplying
and thriving. Northeast Of Fairbanks. Alaska, a large
herd is said to be in existence, while northwest Canada
counts Its bison by the thousand.
These, it must be understood, arc buffalo living in the
wild state, as distinct from those maintained on ranches
and in parks.
Probably it will never be possible for The western United
States to swarm again With bison as it once did; neither
possible, nor altogether desirable. But no American who
likes his country's colorful past can fail to be glad that In
some places. at least, the animal is coming back.

WITH SIGHT
Duluth HC,ald


It 8 q curious reflection on the state Of public inteli-
gence that the Minnesota legislature should have found
1t necessary to pass q law, which will become effective in
September. that will make it impossible for a person who
is having trouble with his sight to 60 to a store and
let 2 clerk sell him . cheap pair of glasses.
That can be done now, and 1t is being done, hard
though that is to believe.
It ought not to- have been necessary to pass such a
law. The public ought to be intelligent enough to know
that eye troubles cannot safely be handled that way,
and that there Is even danger that trifling in that man
ner with SO important 9 sense as sight will do perma-
nent injury.
This provision of law comes into effect through a new
law strengthening the regulation Of the sale Of such goods
and requiring those who treat sight troubles TO be COM
petent to do 1t. This measure amends the law regulating
the practice Of optometry, and limits the fitting Of glasses
to registered optometrists and physicians.
But since there was q need of such a law, 1t is good to
know that the legislature has passed it.
Sight Is q very precious thing. and nobody ought to
risk u Dy prescribing his own glasses or letting some
incompetent person do it.
Anybody who is having trouble with his vision should
so to a competent eye specialist, and to nobody else.

THE DEMOCRACY OF GOLF

Coll, which used to be considered the rich mans rccrc-
alton. IS a pretty democratic sort of game after all.
Z. B. Maytag. wealthy Iowa washing machine manu-
f~acturer. has spent thousands of dollars on golf lessons.
Recently he entered the trans-Mississippi golf tourna-
ment, his heart set on winning first place. Like all encr-
getic golfers. he doubtless wanted that championship.
right then, as badly rs he wanted anything on earth.
But he failed to get It. He was beaten in the finals by
2 ~youngster who used to be . caddy, and who never was
able to spend I dollar on lessons in hts life. The democ-
racy Of the game tossed victory to the poor boy instead
Of to the rich man.
There are, q the c~opybooks used to say. some things
That money can't buy. Victory in golf is one Of them.

HOW TO USE POULTICEs

Poultices are valuable home rene-
dies to be used whenever one desires
to bring about a more rapid discharge
of pus from an inflammatory infcc-
ton. They are valuable in bringing
boils and carbuncles to a head, and in
bringing about a discharge of small
splintcrs or thorns, and in serving to
prevent blood poisoning from pune
ture wounds by rusty septic objects.
Through the use Of the poultice, one
has an easily applied method of secur-
ing continued heat and moisture to a
part. The heat causes q dilation Of
the capillaries and a greater supply Of
blood and in this way strengthens the
defenscs of the body. The moisture
softens the skin structures and helps
to dilute toxins. The discharge tends
to work outward through the action
Of the heat.
Many different substances may be
used for the preparation of poultices,
the most commonly used poultices
being made from cornnleal, flaxseed,
potatoes. bread and hops, but prac-
tically any substance of a mushy ma
ture> may be used If these arc not
available. Leaves may be boiled and
applied hot. Mud may be boiled and
used, rice, etc.. the efficacy being not
so much in any substance contained
in the poultice material rs In the eff
feet of the heat and moisture. The
consistency should be quite soft but
not enough to run.
The usual way Of making a poultice
is to spread out a piece Of old muslin
or cheese cloth. The area of the
muslin should be nine times as big
as the finished poultice, and the hot
mush should be poured in the center
OF the muslin, which is then folded
over from each side so that the two
overlapping edges are on top. The
poultice may then be tied upon the
part with the free ends or with an
other piece of muslin, allowing the
mushy substance to come as close to
the affected area as possible.
Poultices should be applied Just as
hot as can be borne. II the poultice
becomes cold. it may be removed and
dipped into boiling water for q minute
or two and then re-applied. To keep
the poultice warm. it should be COW
cred with oiled silk or waxed paper,
and over this q heavy folded towel
or piece Of wooden material.
Poultices may be left on all night
and, If the patient falls asleep until
morning, the moisture continues to be
valuable even after they have be-
come cold.
A properly prepared poultice will
not stick to the skin when It Is re.
moved. After removal, the skin
should be washed with warm water
and the pus or splinter can be
squeezed out. II the pus has not come
to q head the poultice should be re-

although I don't bring up any phlegm.
It doesn't seem to be a habit. Could
you tell me what causes this?"
AnSWer-Such symptoms are often
forerunners of tuberculosis or bron.
chitis. Any irritation in the lungs
may create the desire to cough, even
when there Is nothing to cough up.
If the aus Of the irritation is not
removed, there may finally develop
enough degeneration so that phlegm
and pus will gather in large enough
quantities to be coughed up. Every
tickling cough, without phlegm,
should be carefully considered and the
cause removed.

We live in a "meddling' age. according to DR.. Samuel
C.. Kohs, executive director OF the Brooklyn Federation OF
Jewish Charities.
We are meddlers, says DR.. Kols, in all sorts of fields
where our ancestors were satisfied to let well enough
alone. WI NEEDLE with all sorts of established standards,
with all sorts OF established conditions. We are not con-
tent to accept anything as final; instead we begin to
tinker with it to sec if we cannot in some way make it
better.
Al Of this, quite naturally, has made for a lot Of con-
fusion. Sometimes, our mcddling seems to have spoiled
things that we shouldn't have monkcyed with, at other
times the things that need fixing the worst don't seem to
get much attention. And. besides. the meddler is usually
a big nuisance. Many people, in consequence. feel that
the game has gone far enough and that all modelling
should cease.
Yet, civilization being what it is, Modelling can't cease.
Indeed, there is apt to be more of it, not less, as years go
by.
1t was the meddlcrs who started the movement that
wiped out negro slavery.
Small children had to work II hours daily in the New
England textile mills until meddlins busybodics got to
work and got legislation that remedicd the situation.
Havana and Panama were sink holes OF disease, ravagcd
annually by yellow fever epidemics, until meddlins U. S.
army officers went to work, bothered people about sani-
tation and drainage, and pushed yellow fever out of town.
Smallpox would still be the uncomfortable scourge it
used to be if health officers didn't NEEDLE in peoples
private affairs and vaccinate and quarantine it into SUBJ
mission.
City dwellcrs could never be sure Of the purity Of their
food and milk supplies if the cities didn't hire meddlcrs
to inspect dairy companies. markets and storage houses.
All OF us could be gougcd numerically for such ncccs-
stiles as electric light and gas if it were not for the med
ding public utility commissions.
Automobile traffic would be perpetually tangled If we
didn't have the bothersomc, mcddlins traffic cop.
And SO it goes. An age of meddlers? Correct-and
there isn't any way out Of it. We live SO closely together
and use SO many complicated machines and intricate
systems that without meddling we should be lost. If you
think it would be nicer to live in a more slowly moving
age. where people didn't have to concern themselves about
their nclghbors' doinsS-wcll, you're just out of luck,
that's all. You'll never get your desire.

 SAFE LANDING
 MADE, SEATTLE
Pilot Does Heroic Act with Passengers Plane
 Bound for Fairbanks

SEATTLE, June 10-A burning airplane with three passengers was landed safely yesterday by Charles A. Recotor, pilot, after three mile flight across the city from Boeing Field.
 The left half of a wing was bad ly damaged.
 The gasoline line broke when 2000 feet LID and the flames licked the back of the cabin.
 Pilot Recotor fought the flames with a fire extinguisher with one hand and side-slipped the plane to the field with the other hand.
 The passengers were Miss Peggie Hawley, J. R. Hawley, her brother, and Volmer Jensen.
 Recotor's hand was burned.
 Bremen eXtinguished the blaze.
 Recotor has been a pilot for sev- en years and had planned to fly with Adolph Muller, of Fairbanks, owner of the plane, to Fairbanks today.
