A Long-Distance Diagnosis. A new way to summon the doctor's itid in emergency has boon Sound in th.: wireless. mctiHuge. A transport re cently docked in New York report.' tliat while at (tea it received a wlreictm niessnKU from nnother vessel, ihn Jtritinh steamer I'ollac, A member of tin Politic'- crew had been tuken sud denly ill. There was no phyisician iilmaid, so the call for help was Bent out hy wireless. The doctor on the transport vw ptven the Kymptoms. lie diagnosed the case and sent back a wireless me.Msatfo explaining the proper treat ment to be followed. The two whip:. kept in touch, the doctor on the one rvi nving hourly reports from the sick man on the other. In two days mark ed improvement was reported and thu last meiisuKe indicated rapid recovery, Of course, if a aurgeun'ri. hand had been needed or certain unavailable medicines had been essential to the manVn recovery, the simple wireless messages would not have been suffi cient to save his life. Since it was chiefly n matter of careful diagnosis and special treatment the directions vere easily Riven at lung distance. Here is o use for the wireless which It is strange no one has practiced bo fore. It in one not likely soon to be forgotten, however. Even though long distance diagnosis may not be the best kind, it is certainly better than nene when there is no other way to meet the emergency. An Example of Free Speech. One evening Inst week Kugcne V. Pib.s. condemned to ten years' impris onment for violating the espii.i.ng-f act, addressed a mass meeting of brother Socialists in Cleveland. Hit reiterated his charge that the govern ment was persecuting the Socialist party. He praised the. ltussiai. Ilol nheviki. He assailed the motived with Aiiieh tin Unite! Sin tea entered the war and the spirit in which it Is nov mukimr peace. He accmed the govern mcnl of trying to stifle '"free speech'' and defied the authorities to silencf him anil his follower. A Socialist editor, from the same, platform, made a speech of , similar tenor, bidding the llolshcviki up as in spiring examples, and condemning tint "lyranny" of the United States gov ernment. He nl.o had much to say ntxMit ".silencing free speech." The KnciMht audience then raised Amelia K. IJarr, who died recently ul her home in New York state, was woman worthy of conEidcr.it ion for a good many reasons. She began writing when she was a little girl, but until the story "Jan Vcdder's Wife" was published, when Mrs. Bnrr was " years old, she never attained any considerable fame. Thu! story and "The How of Orange Ktb hon" assured her success. '"Writing," said this fnmou;t writer of her day, "munt be based on a hack-1 ground of systematic grind if it is to amount to anything." And that she, practiced what she preached is proven . R hy her success and her persistence, for she wrote nearly u hundred novels al together and was planning a new one at the time of her death at 87. Many people contend that home life and professional life are incompatible for woman, yet this sturdy writer wat- niarried and was the mother of fif teen children. Those women shunnin; marringc for the sake of "careers' might learn something from Amelia fir.rr. Not the least to be said of her U of the fpiality of her stories. They were clean and sound. No mother hesitates to have her daughter read them. No, boy caught poring over them is ashamed to look hin mother in the eye. In theso days of detective talec couched in poor English, nnd stories dealing with questionable situations, this grand old woman of a grand old school shines with distinguished luster. Speaking in defense of the filibuster which marked the closing dnyn of con gress, Senator Shermnn remarked that speech is not free in this country. In this case he was emphatically correct, for speech which accomplishes noth ing but to postpone legislation Imme diately necessary to the welfare of a great country is not free. It is the most costly thing wo have. Now Jack Johnson. says the famous Willard victory was n frame-up. Af te: that, we're almost prepared to learn that the (iermnn surrender ww ft fnkc. The bread that Is still wnsted in the United States would feed Poland, Ser bia, Belgium or Armenia. And be cause It is wasted, they are all poorly fed.
