For over forty years I have been a humble servant of my fellow-man. My fidelity to my trust is of record. Questions of the day concern my people ? such items as have relation to their health and even moral welfare. It is my duty to work far human betterment as long as I am able. The matter of "Prohibition" is, at this time of writing, bordering on bewilderment and? chaos. For some years we physicians have been doing our best to aid in stamping out an evil. While we were struggling to obey the law, the illicit distiller and racketeer have walked around the legitimate use of alcoholics, and have supplied the drinking world with seventy-five-cent whisky, and have reaped fortunes for themselves, challenging Uncle Sam's drastic income tax law itself. One of my patients ? an aged man with pneumonia said, "hell, I ain't going to pay a druggist three dollars for a pint of whisky when I can buy just as good for a dollar !" Now conies newspaper reports that physicians may prescribe alcoholic stimulants fol medicinal use, in quantity and frequency as they see fit; even to a ninety days supply, if it seems to be indicated for treatment ! That jneans, I imagine, a prescription for a gallon of whiskey under certain conditions ? for instance some chronic disease ! Well, ? I'm not going by newspaper reports. Uncle Sam wiH have to notify me before-I make any drastic changes ? and I shall not run into a wholesale | business of prescribing a three months supply of whiskev, law or no law. 1 | S- to obey the higher law of TEMPERANCE, SOBRIETY, RIGHT VING.

C. . j \ J QREED Nellie Gray died a few week* ago. A chronic invalid, tricked out of her amail inheritance aa a young woman, (he had been the town pauper of Went Stockbridge, Mats , for twenty yean. Then a brother died and left her $81,000. The first thing Nellie' did with the I money was to pay back to the I town all the money the taxpayers | had contributed to her support. Only one of Nellie's relations ever did anything tor her when she was poor. He was a cousin who was almost aa hard up as she was. Bat as soon as she got her Inheritance relations flocked to her house from all directions. When she died seventeen differ ent families claimed a share in her estate. They had left her to at*!**, but now they wanted her wealth. The probate court examined all the claims. There was no claim on behalf of the only relation who had ever done anything to be friend Nellie Gray. He said he didn't need it; he could get along. He wouldn't like anyone to think he'd been kind to his cousin In the hope of gain. But the court dealt out even-handed justice an? this cousin got halt of the estate, to the disgust of the seventeen | greedy ones. In this imperfect world it Is not often that I run across a hu man situation which so well bears out the belief that right and Jus tice will always triumph in the end. ' I I i SUPERSTITION- . . pains inside In my boyhood I used to hear back country people say that it was dangerous to drink from an open stream or spring. They told weird tales of persons who had swallowed' frogs' eggs which hatched in their insldes. Some times it was llsard eggs. I re member reading many years ago a gruesome tale of a man who had thus accidentally swallowed an alligator egg. and was devour ed from within by the reptile which hatched In his stomach. ' I imagine that belief is as old as humanity. Folk Ignorant of physiology attributed internal pains to some sort of an actual reptile in their vitals. Bat I had supposed that everybody knew ?nough In theae^enlightened days to realise the possibility of such happcsMflKvitli I saw a newspaper article from a seashore resort the other day. According to this story a young woman Walking on the bearti picked up what she thought was a pearl. She put It In her mouth and accidentally swallowed it. And some time later, according to the account, she died in agony, devoured by an octopus which had hatched from the egg that she had mistaken for a pearl! Apparently there are still peo ple gullible enough to swallow such stories. Age-old beliefs do not vanish as Bpeedlly in the face of knowledge as I had Imagined. txx HUMOR with che?ae The funniest saying are often not so Intended. The best bit of nnconclons humor which I have heard lately was told to me by a very able woman physician who specializes In mental cases in a New England city. One of her patients attempted suicide by taking three boxes of rat poison. That was an over dose, and nature got rid of it so quickly that he recovered. But he bad his own theory of why It Renew Your Health By Purification Any physician will tell yon that "Perfect Purification of the Sys tem is Nature's Foundation of Perfcet Health." Why not rid yourself of ehronie ailments that are undermining your vitality? Purify your entire system by tak ing a thorough course of Calotabs, ? once or twice a week for several weeks? and see how Nature re wards you with health. Calotabs purify the blood by ac tivating, the liver, kidneys, stomach and bowels. In 10 eta. and 85 ets. packages. All dealers. (Adv.)

(ailed to work. "Of course, I see now what was the matter," the poor semi-luna tic told the doctor. "The direc tions on the box said to spread the rat-poison on pieces of cheese, and I forgot the cheese!" J CHANCE and a "dud" At a church lawn-party not lone ago 1 heard the minister's daughter complain, half seriously, that young men shy off from girls who live In a parsonage. "What chance has a minister's daughter?" she sighed, with one: eye on the handsome young man who tends the soda-fountain in] the village drugstore, who was devoting himself to a couple of chattering high-school girls, a pearn. She put It in her mouth Her father, overhearing her, remarked: " "You make me think of a Methodist parsonage In England, where there were two daughters. They may have felt much as yon do, but those two girls gave the world two of today's most famous men. One of them became the mother of Rndyard Kipling, the greatest living poet, and her sla ter's son, Stanley Baldwin, be came Prime Minister ' of Eng land." I saw the minister's daughter! a little later, talking earnestly with a young college professor on vacation, whom most of the vil lage girls have branded as a "dud." I couldn't be sure, but I thought she was letting him hold her hand. JOBS first-rate men The mark of a first-rate man is that he is not above taking a second-rate Job if there Is a chance in it to prove hla own flrst-rateness. One young man I know lost his Job in the hardest part of the de pression. He tried anything else' he could get to do but all he, could get was a chaace to sell advertising on commission. He went at It as If It waa the big-i gest job in the world, and within' six months his commissions were; running to aa much u the hlfh nat salary be had ever earned. "Jow he'i the star man of hU uewspaper organisation. Second-rate men want Bret-rate lobe handed to them. Flrat-rate nen make their own tint-rate lobe. Subscribe to The Franklin Time* 6 6 6 LIQUID .
