Some one that we «now goes off a grdde, and lives are lost. Some one that .ere know speeds at a atreet crossing, and bones ¡are broken and heavy property damage inflicted, to the guil- Sty and the innocent alike. In the case of driving a car fast, we have forgotten *|Jiat it is not “ speed” that was called for in the in dention of a gasoline wagon. There are plenty of ad j u t a g e s to be secured from the use of the gasoline on- jgjne without permitting it to be a means of death or g» If we have to fill the streets with “ Stop” signs as a TDeans of stopping speeding where speeding hurts, it ¿jfcjust be done. For it takes something more than self atntrol tb prevent this taking of chances. APPomncxNT or sbrvicje A “ medical missionary” has won a'm ost notable sition in a South American country.

This physician hapjiens l>e the superintendent of the foreign hospital at Lima. : was of course not elected mayor, but apikrinted, as is u habit in these Spanish American .countries. But tliat a foreigner and a nonconformist of any sort ould be named to such a jiogition is a credit to the worth scientific efficiency.
