Newspaper Page TextTHE OTW AGE, PORTLAINU, OREGON. TOPICS OF ) THE TIMES. Some rnoii nru like iloiikcyn; tliey luck horse hciiho. WIicii n dog Mieceodd in capturing Ills tnll Ills cud Is lU'compllsliL'd. Taking It for nil In nil, the Schley Sampson controvemy Is n powerful ur KUtnciit tigaliist war. ' The new doctor caa'ly knows the dif ference between "golllng fii.iio' nntl "backache." It Is nbout S'JO. Mr. KooM-'velt to far bus met with complete hiicccbh In crowding Keveii people Into it Whlto IIouho built lor two. Mnny of tllo bent women In tho world don't know bow to get o(T it moving Htreet ear, and Htlll they are respected and beloved. "A baby," says a contemporary, "can cry louder than n lirnm baud can play. We have tried It." Ab a baby, or an a brass baud? Ho may mean well but wo nlwnys entertain a suspicion of tho man who pronounces iimiruhWt with tho accent on tho second Hyllable. Tho consuiuptloii of borne meat In Vienna In Increasing. The peoplo there ate up W.tHO Iioihch In 181)1). TIiIh In dicates a tendency to pretty fiiHt llv lnt,'. A monument him been erected In KaiiHiiH In honor of Xebulon 1'lke, tho luiiu who discovered i'lko'H l'euk. It will hardly Hcrvu to cant tho latter In tho Hhade. "Why do blrdH inlgintoV" asks n writer for ouo of tho Illustrated niiigit jtlnt'M. reriidventuro they aro trying to Ket away from tho boy with tho rub ber Hhooter. Sir Thomas Llpton Miys ho Htlll thinks the Shamrock Ih a better boat thnu tho Columbia, If ho gels any sat iKfactlou out of tho Idea no ouo Hhould be ungenerous enough to deprlvu him of It. .Saudi, tho poet, wan once asked from whom ho learned IiIh good milliners; IiIh reply wiih, "Kiuiii tho lll-initniiercd." Although much may be learned from oppofdtcH, caution from tho reckless, thrift from the prodigal, and truthful iicsh from, tho untruthful, tho supply of such teachers exceeds tho demand. Thrco years ago Mrs. Patrick FItz Kornld, of South l'lalntleld, N. J., wiih called to her door one morning by an old man who said ho wax hungry and had no home. She gave him a good breakfast, and the other day ho died, leaving Ifllt.OSO In cash which ho ex plained In a letter was to bo turned over to Mrs. Fitzgerald. It will now bo harder than ever to have tho tramp nuisance abated. Tho notion that a modern college course Ih essentially a rich boy'H bless ing Ih greatly shaken by HgurcH collat ed with regard to tho students of Co lumbia University. It Ih iih closely established iih may bo that fully -10 per cent of tho young men at that Institu tion earn a portion of the money nec essary to take them through. Ten per cent of them earn half of their college money. About B per cent earn tho whole sum, Including living expenses. Now that tho limit bus been reached in the development of tho racing ma chine It Ih a itucstlon whether some at tempt Hhould not bo made to return to normal yacht building. Tho aim of Hiich building Ih to combine with rea sonable comfort and safety a maxi mum of Hpeed. Beautiful and HWlft as tho modern racing machines are, no ouo would over follow their linen either for fcafety or comfort. Ih It not time for tho Now York Yacht Club to call a halt and seek to restore to honor tho real bout the yacht like the great forty-foot Minerva, which crossed the Atlantic In fourteen days, scored a hoiihoii of straight wins and meanwhile accom modated her owner and his guests? A school teacher's education does not count for much unless slut Ih strong enough to use It, ho In Chicago candi dates for teacherH' places are very prop erly required to pass a physical exami nation, There wiih a tlutterlug In the normal schools when the rule wiih adopted, a year ago, It being feared that It would bar out some of tho best Mtidents, but the tlrst result was that It stimulated them to take proper euro of their health. "They have had soup for luncheon, Instead of cookies," says a well-known professional woinan,"iuid they Imvo not dieted, iih they used to, on slate-pencllH and plcklen." These en lightened graduates are expected not to collapse under the strain of their work. A pity It seeuiH that they will not have authority to, intiko their pu pils take that same road to health which they themselves have learned to travel. lluxlng has nothing to commend It, Iliuttillty Is always to bo deplored In very form. It Is not funny, There Ixu't a real laugh In It, and It contains not ouo atom of mati-maklug quality, develops mother body nor brain. It does not mako a young man bravo or manly. After every basing eplsodo there Is generally a howl from parents mid friends of tho hinted, and a prom ise on the part of those In authority for tetter things. Tho victims themsulvea seldom cay much. There la a college code of ethics that forces them to suf fer In bIIviicc. Hazing can be suppress ed by expulsion. Thnt Ih n remedy for all kinds of college brutality. Once It Ih known that no college, mllitr.ry fir othcrulho. will rccche a youth who Ih not content to keep his bands off his fellow HUidcntH under penalty of In slant and permanent dismissal, the days of gouglpi, duckings, poundings and doslngs will have ended. Tho old question of the value of n physician's services Ih up again In rittHburg. Then; the heirs of million aires seem to go on tho plan that what ever the value of a live man, a dead one Is worth only what his doctor can extract by the aid of tho law. The light over the late Chris Magcc's doc tor bill wan famous. Now another phy sician Ih In court trying to collect ?&, iMII.'Jo from the estate of a man who wiih a Carnegie Steel Company partner. The doctor wants $25 for ench visit, and Ids patient had $0,000,000. The physician swears that he kept the brain and body of the rich man going for one year, and that In those twelve montlis he added an even one million dollars to IiIh fortune. If that Ih true the doc tor's bill Is trilling, 'there are a gocd many men who would part with for tunes for a month, or even a week, of life and health and limbless activity. To-day one New-Yorker will pay $1. 000,000 for the restoration of Ills eye sight. The method dccMii't matter. Only let the blcssid Hi.isMne (low into the wlndowH now closed, and the money will be ready. Nobody can real ly put a Just price on health or life, not even tho Individual who only real Izoh how precious both are when ho sees (hem slipping from him. The Chinese who are rich enough to have doctors pay them regularly, and will ho long iih there Is no occasion for a physlclan'H services. When Mr. Chi naman falls III the medical man draws no salary till his patient Ih well again. Doctors of Pittsburg's millionaires might try that plan with profit. Desperate efforts were required re cently to save a life In Chicago endan gered by the bad handwriting of n doc tor. The pharmacist who made up a prescription Interpreted the author's scratches as well as he could ami sent a deadly mistake into a victim's stom ach. Handwriting had sadly declined In the United States before the arrival of the machine writer. The cause was plain. Fads had entered the common schools and It was no longer compul sory to learn to write teglbly, (o spell correctly, or to put sentences In gram matical shape. Decllnu of handwriting throughout the country opened the doors widely for Immigrants who In foreign schools had acquired a clear penmanship nnd ndded to that valuable talent a fundamental knowledge of arithmetic, spoiling and grammnr. Many of the lending merchants of this gener ation began life as clerks able to wrlto Intelligibly In establishments whose capitalists could not trust themselves to pen a letter, fearing that tho person ad dressed would be unable to read It. From clerk to head of house was often a straight path to skill with the pen and practical knowledge of the rudiments of business ns It must bo recorded. Touching of penmanship was formerly ns regular an Incident In the common schooling as Instruction In history or geography. Fads had crowded pen manship down before tho Invention of the typewriter, which completed the rout of tho pen. So grcnt dependence Is now laid In this country upon tho lit tle machine, which Is alert, manifolding and distinct, that the art of handwrit ing Is almost lost among Americans, with rare exception. Public school graduates are not In demand for tho best mercantile places because employ ers cannot trust them to prepare cor rect correspondence which It Is not pru dent to mako on the uiicoutldentlal ma chine. Foreigners still win and keep the best places of this nature, ami will continue to do so until American schools revive Instruction In handwrit ing and give .their students training enough In Kugllsh composition to qual ify them as secretaries. Doctors can not habitually turn to the typewriter to lake prescriptions; the machine Is not common enough for that. Their pen manship Is proverbially bad; It might bo Improved If the rookies among them were prosecuted for evil consequences arising out of their Inability or unwill ingness to write so as to bo correctly read. Hod HmipperH In Florida, lied snapper tlshlug Is one of the Im portant minor Industries of Florida. It iias proven a most lucrative business for the Ilrms engaged In It. The red snapper Is found only over the coral formations of the southern seas, ami most of those brought to Peusacola are caught off the coast of Honduras. A big licet of large linking smacks Is engaged In the business, and as many as 5,000 fish have been brought to the port In one load. All the smacks are now tltted with Ice chests of liberal dimensions In place of the wells In which the tlsh for merly were preserved. Ucmedy ftir Wans. A simple remedy for wartH Is a dram of salicylic acid with an ounce of cello dton In a bottle which has a tiny brush run through tho cork. Apply this mix ture to tho warts twlco u day and In a few days thoy will dry tip nnd fall on. Unties' Homo Journnl. Jliat bo. Ida I am n little suspicious about his genealogical tree.
