Dentist Absolved Of Patient’s Death Denver, Col., April 17.—The Su preme Court of the state of Color ado ruled that Lewis E. Brown, a Berthoud, (Col.) dentist did the right thing in pulling 16 teeth from the upper Jaw of Clarence Hughes, a Larimer county farmer, even though the patient died two weeks later assertedly as a result of the operation. Justice E. V. Holland pointed out in the ruling that expert testimony differed as to whether or not it was dangerous to extract 16 teeth at one time. A lower court had awarded a judgment of $5,000 against Dr. Brown, holding him re sponsible for the death of Hughes.

Staples veteran editor of The Lewiston <Maine) Evening Journal, printed in his book, "The Passing Age,” the following letter from "a correspondent who seems to have taken some offense at our opinion of the duty of good people to obey the law." All will agree that the following Is an unusual presentation of the personal liberty theme: To the Editor: You seem to take a good deal of delight In telling other people how to live and perhaps that is your business, but It seems to me that you exceed your duty when you ar rogate to yourself the right to in form all of those who may happen to enjoy an occasional drink of “Scotch" on occasions. I have been presented a fine bot tle of Scotch whiskey for Christ mas and it Is before me as I sit at my typewriter and Indite this letter to you. at Dears tne laoei oi Bandy MacDonald—a good, fair well-bod led liquor which I am assured was bought before the war und has been in my friend's cellar ever since. What right has any form of law to make me a criminal if I partake of this gift as it was in tended that I do by the giver? I claim that any such law is an Invasion of my personal liberty. I notice that you have referred often in your excellent columns to the so called Bill of Rights which secures to all men and women certain alienable rights to their personal liberty, which, as you say, are not inconsistent with the right of others. How do you reconcile your statements? I have Just tasted of this bottle of liquor, I will confide to you. and I cannot see where I am invading tlie rights' of any other person on earth. I find it excellent. It warms my stomach it inspires my thought. I cannot feel, Mr. Editor, that I have wronged the community or added to the' lawlessness of the general society in so doing. It makes me tired to be classed as a crim inal for any such occasion, and I notify you that before long there will be a revolt against the sort of stuff you are writing. Just to show my independence of such truck as you are writing I have taken another drink of the aforesaid most jubilant Sandy Mac Donald, and I will say to you that it is about as smooth a drank as a Criminal ever put into his system. The second drink, which I shall soon follow by a third, makes me more certain that those who feel their systems require stimulant, should band. together; organize and start a campaign to floor this Volstead business if it can be done. Now, Mr. Editor, I am no bum and you can't make me a bum. I like a little drink now and then and I have taken a third or maybe it is a fourth and I am’more than ever convlncew that any man thqt doen t is a big idot. You say that this evabion of the law is produc lgn a st6te of affairs in our Grear nand Grorious Country. You are wronh.

Memphis, Term., April 17.—"X felt a tremblin' in my chest. I felt the power coming In. I got lip out of bed. Tt Is the work of the Lord . . .! He raised me up.” Thus does Homer Moore, 20-year1 old negro, describe the “miracle” J that came to pass at Marine Hos- j pital a few days ago when he, ap parently a hopeless victim of pa ralysis, stepped from his bed and walked. Nurses and doctors pointed him out. They accept his case as one of| the accidental phenomena in the symphony of science. Moore just says a “miracle” came to pass. Since last fall, when he fell while i working on the government fleet near Helena, Ark., Homer has been I in bed, in the hospital here or at] Helena. Unable to move hands, feet j or head, scarcely able to whisper,! he was given water through a tube, j fed mush and other soft foods with j a spoon. Praying constantly, he had other! negroes pray for'him. A few days! ago, he began fasting. Nurses could j not force him to take nourishment, i Sunday, they said, he was lying! In the bed in the sunshine. Sud- I denly, he sat up, placed his .feet on I the floor and walked. He talked | plainly, asked for food and ate it. i Now, he walks most of the time, I waiting on other patients at the j hospital. “I read in the Bible that in the' olden days God helped those He- j brew boys and I know he was pow- j YOU’VE WANTED A Good USED CAR Now’s your chance ROGERS MOTORS erful to help me, too,” lie said sim ply.
