Week before last Oscar Underwood went before the people of Alabama opposing the repeal of free tolls. Hi won by twenty thousand. Congress- man U Uyrne ot Air. Wilson's own stale wont before the people of his district and supported President Wil son s position on 1 lie tolls, lie wan defeated overwhelmingly. In 1912 the Democrats of that district got 14,875 votes. Mr. 0 'Byrne got only 5,240 voles this time. This is a straw that has a meaning. Revenge is the sweetest when you can get another sucker to foot the bills. Did it ever occur to you that in trying to pull down the other fellow's house that you were undermining your own. It is an undisputed fact that most editors have a joker up their sleeve to use if it is necessary to take the trick. It is not to be relied uion that because the editor does not print a sensational article at the time of its happenii.g, that lie is igMunnt of the affair. Falls City School Complimented. The manual training work in the Kalis t 'it y High School is proving quite profitable to the district, as well as to the boys who are taking the course. This is shown by a report made to Superintendent of I'ublie In struction Churchill by Assistant State Superintendent Frank K. Welle, who recently made an official visit to this school. Falls City is a lumbering town and the high school boys seem to take naturally to wood work. Al though their original equipment con sisted of only a few hand tools, they have made 11 work -benches and are constantly adding to their equipment with the money which tbey receive ble for the bank, a book-case and a cabinet for one of the physicians, nud they now have an order for an ice chest and cabinet lor a dentist and a Writing table and set of chairs for one of the hotels. The quality of the work turned out by students is of such superior quality that the de mand has increased until they are now unable to till all of the orders for their product which come to them. lhe manual training work is bein done undur the direction of Principal 11.

TOEL The Chicago Specialist Now in Dallas even when sewed up, tearing a small space apart and infecting the fresh wound. The ; method of rejecting piles with carbolated oil and other similar substances has, in a number of cases, caused sudden death, the oil globules getting into the circula tion and clogging up the blood ves sels in the lungs. Injecting sub stances that coagulate the blood into blood vessels is always dangerous. Dr. Toel has for 30 years used method by means of electricity, which avoids all these dangers. The pile tumors aae removed in few minutes without the loss of drop of .blood. As there are no open blood vessels and lymphatic vessels left to become infected there is no danger of blood poisoning; the pa tient is not weakened by the loss of blood as in a knife operation, there is very seldom any pain after the op eration, while the operation itself ex tremely seldom requires chloroform or ether, which he uses only if the pile tumors are extremely large and there are very many of them. , The routine treatment for bleeding piles and flat pile growths as used by most physicians and surgeons is- to apply nitric acid in the fuming state to the growths. Anybody can imag ine how intense aiid long continued the pain would be from such a pro cedure. Aside from this, it is hard to limit the effects of a fluid caustic which often, destroys for more than necessary. I Dr. Toel eases three different meth ods as they may Beein best suited to each case, In the first, he uses the same method as in pile tumors, de stjroying the piles instantly. This is the best suited to cases where there are only a few well-localized pile growths. In the second method where the pile growths are all around the circumference of the bowel, Di Toel destroys them by an electric current of low voltage, or brings them to absorbtion by a jurrent of veiiy high voltage. Both these meth ods are practically painless and are free from danger of blood poisoning, while of course there is not the slightest loss of blood. The routine trentmeht for fistula as used by most physicians and sur geons is either to cut them with knife or scissors, or to shring an elas tic ligature, through them and tie this, thus severing the outside of the fistula canal by mortification. The cutting method has the danger of all such operations of loss of blood and blood poisoning, also requiring chlo roform or ether. The elastic ligature method has the danger of blood pois oning and ihe intense pain from the slowly contracting ligature. Asid from this, both methods will only lay open the main canal of the fis tula; but how of tbe'many branches, blind canals that fork off from the main canal, and of which Dr. Toel once found 37 in a case of fistula f When using cutting instruments the flow of blood obscures them, they cannot be found, and in a short time form a new fistula. In using the elastic ligature they cannot even be seen. In both methods the lining of the fistula is not destroyed and usu ally forms a new fistula in a short time. The electric method as used by Dr. Toel for 30 years, causes no loss of blood there is no danger of blood poi soning, as the blood vessels are all sealed up during the process of the operation; the pus forming lining of the fistula is entirely destroyed and as there is no blood to obscure the open ings of the many blind branches fork ing off from the main canal, these can all be found and destroyed, one after the other. There is no pain af ter the operation, und only in the most severe cases, where there are many branches, is it necessary to use chloroform or ether. If you have not seen the Dallas Observer of April 14th and 17th, get it and read obout Dr. Toel's cure of cancers and tumors, also April 10th about treatment f kidney diseases. Dr. Toel intends to make his meth ods known throughout the Willamette Valley after returning from Eastern Oregon, before opening offices in Port land. While he will stay for some time in Dallas, patients who wish to consult him ought to come without de-1 lav, for while some cases of cancer allow him to operate at once when the ; patient consults him, and send the pa tient home the same day free of his cancer, in other cases it is necessary fur the patient to stay under his care for some time.
