It la a fact of which the medical pro
fesslon la well awnro that the better
clasa of newspapers are tho great edu
cators of tho common people. They
furnish them with their high school
and college courses and do more thnn
any other agency to form the opinions
of the great multitude. This being the
case, It behooves all reputable physi
cians to Join In an effort to give the
papers such mcdlcul reading matter as
will Interest and Instruct their renders.
lu no other way could preventive med
icine be taught bo thoroughly and suc
cessfully as through tho medium of
newspaper publicity. Unthinking peo
ple, and Indeed many of independent
mind, bellevo absolutely everything
they rend in their paper. Therefore
preventive medicine could easily be In
stilled Into tho minds of this body.
From earliest times tho law's delay
has beeu subject for denunciation The
pompous pretense that the machinery
of the law must move at slow and
dlgullled pace is aa strictly kept up to
day as lu olden times, How much the
hunger of lawyers and court oillelnls
for accumulating fees lutluenccs de
lay la a question which It might be
todellcat to discuss. The case of
Barry Gagas t Clavtlaud, lajutad by
a railway troln, which was began
through his guardian ten years ago,
when he was a boy of 11 and which
went up through all tho courts and
was remanded to the original court for
retrial, has now been held Invalid be
cause the boy has become of age and
must sue In his own name. 'There
are cases like this occurring every day
all over tho country. John nudnik of
Chicago was Injured In 1886. In 1004
the Supremo Court of Illinois award
ed him $10,000. If tho person or firm
In whoso employ he was Injured was
prudent enough to put nway a sum of
$10,000 In 1885 tho beneficent opera
tion of tho principle of compound In
terest at 0 per cent has by tills tlmo
added $20,000 to tho original deposit.
Tho Injurer gets tho $20,000. Tho In
jured gets tho $10,000. Evidently a
wrong has been dono. A man whoso
leg is crushed earns his money when
tho crushing happens. If appeals, de
murrers, replies, rejoinders and other
Jockeylngs lead Justlco astray for 10
years, It Is not the Innocent that ought
to suffer. A case similar to Rudnlk's
came to light not long fl'go. A young
girl was compelled to wait nlno years
for the $10,000 which constituted tho
compensation for Injuries which alio
had received. Such delays give an un
fair advantage to tho stronger party.
A corporation can pay for lawyers, for
costs and for appeals till the poor liti
gant Is worn out. There ought to be
some return to tho poor litigant for tho
money that ho has lout meanwhile. If
Interest wero paid on final awards,
there would bo less resistance to Just
demands. The volumo of litigation
would shrink and tho damago claim
nut, with right on his Ride, would not
ho deprived by legal filibustering of a
largo part of tho valuo of his claim
that Is, of Its Interest-bearing capac
ity. There can bo no question that
thousands of worthy causes are never
takon Into court becauso of tho lack of
means for tho long litigation. Tho do
lay Is often so cxtremo that oven whon
tho courts grant tho redress that Is
duo It comes too late to afford tho ro
llef that might havo been given If nil
tho resources of tho machinery of Jus
tice had not been used to deprive tho
sufforcr of what should havo been
promptly awarded. Hallways and oth
er corporations, whoso numerous em
ployes are llablo to bo Injured or killed,
complain bitterly of the damago suits
that are brought against them on mcro
speculation. This Is tho natural and
legitimate result of their Influence upon
the procedure In courts. Tho widow
and orphans of a poor man who lias
been killed by such a corporation
would be utterly helpless to support a
long-continued contest In court, except
for tho Nemesis who comes In tho per
son of the lawyer who takes damage
suits on speculation.

Kxhlbltlort lu Kuropc,
Wo lenrn from tho French news
papers that among many Interesting
objects acquired by tho atato from tho
late Princess Mathlldo's collection la a
wdiulerful alarm clock which waa once
tho pride of the great Napoleon, and
which not only tells tho day of tho
month and the year, tho mean solar
time and the phases of the moon, but
sounds every quarter of an hour and la
provided with a thermometer.
Few things are more surprising than
the skill of pnst generations of clock
makers, who not only mado timepieces
of tho most complicated character, but
of such exccllont workmanship thnt
they seem almost mndo for nil tlmo.
There Is nt Castletown, In tho Islo of
Man, n clock which wns telling Manx
men tho tlmo 0' day before Oliver
Cromwell was cradled and which
might havo listened to nn account of
tho nrmadn from tho lips of men who
had seen tho Spanish gnloons, and this
very clock, which Queen Ilcss herself
prosented to Castlo llushon S07 years
ago, Is marking tlmo Just as conscien
tiously for King ISdward's subjects In
tho twentieth century.
At tho South Kouslngton Museum
anyone who chooses may seo to-day
the very clock which Peter Llghtfoot
mado for Glastonbury Abbey about
13UA, when John Wycllffo was In his
cradle, and another clock which was
ticking merrily In Dover Castle In 1348,
two years nfter Crecy was fought. In
187(1 this clock was going as smoothly
ns It did more than llvo centuries bo
fore, whllo tho Society of Antiquaries
has a portable clock mado at Prague
as long ago as IBM.
In the Town of Schrnmberg, In tho
lllnck Forest, there Is nu alarm, clock
which warned sleepers It was tlmo to
got up when Charles II. wns King of
Kuglaud. It was mndo In 1080 niul Is
nn Ingenious pleco of wnrkmnnshlp.
In form It resembles h lantern lu
which Is n lighted candle, tho wlck of
which Is automatically clipped every
mluuto by a pair of scissors. Tho
candle Is slowly pushed upward by a
spring, which nlso controls the me
chanism of the clock, and at the re
quired hour of wnklug nu alarm Is
sounded, and nt the snmo tlmo the
movable sides of tho lantern full nud
the room Is flooded with light.
A pendulum clock, made lu 1(IS2 and
onco owned by Cromwell, Is preserved
today In the Philadelphia Library, and
another, mado lu Germany In KVIO,
was recently doctored by a Connect
icut clockmaker and Is now running
for six months at a tlmo without wlud-lng.--Tlt.Hlts.

A City in Itself
Have ybu ever stopped to consider that a modern
express train, like the St. Louis Special, is practically a
city in itself a place where you can sleep, chat, smoke,
read, dine and go a-v kiting, just about as you would at
your own home?
It makes little difference what you want, you have
only to summon a porter and he will swiftly and
smilingly get it for you.

THE TRAIL OF LEWIS AND GLARK
Waa the pioneer American troll west of the Mlasourl river and tho results of that,
exploration of 1S01-6 were of tremendous Importance to the United States and
they were uver more apparent than now,
A publication relating to the Lewis and Clark expedition. Just Issued by a.
P. Putnam's Sons, New York, stands peculiarly alone. This edition Is a two vol
ume, 8 vo one called "The Trail of Lewis and Clark, 18OM90V', The author, Mr.
Olln D. Wheeler, is the well known wrltr of the popular Wonderland series of
the Northern Pacific Railway, In connection with which he made his studies and
researches for this work.
Mr. Wheeler has traveled several thousand miles over the route of Lewis and
Clark. He has camped out, climbed mountains, followed old Indian trails, and
visited remote points made memorable by those explorers. Their route across the
Ottterroot mountnlns has been followed. Identified and mapped.
"The Trail of Lewis and Clark" Is Illustrated In color and half Une from
paintings, drawings and maps, by Paxson, DeCamp, and Russell, made under Mr.
Wheeler's direction, and from photographs taken specially for the purpose. The
writer tells his own story and supplements tt with pertinent extracts from Lewis
ind Clark, and a host ot other historical and narrative writers that connect the
wst with the present. Exact excerpts and photographic reproductions, in half
tone, from the Original Manuscript Journals of Lewis and Clark are given. A.
hapter Is devoted to the Louisiana Purchase, another to the preparatory meas
ures for the exploration, and another to the history of each man of the expedi
tion so far as known. Including a discussion of the death of Captain Lewis.
The Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St Louis, and the Lewis and Clark
Centennial to bo held at Portland, Orejon, In 1905, make this work pecullarly
Imely because written from the standpoint of actual knowledge of past and pres
nt conditions of the old trail and country.
"The Trait of Lewis and Clark" thould be found In even public and private
Ibrary In the land and the general -reader will find in reading through Its pages
f large, clear type that truth Is, Indeed, stranger than fiction.
The book can ba ordered through inv hnnVcsli n nun. ,n.i . ji .
