The daily cow is proving her

More o f our farmers ought to be

This office has under advise

for an occasional “ handout” to

In the legislative assembly next
winter made up o f ninety mem
bers, the democratic party will
be represented by seven members,
six in the senate and one in the
house. It w ill be an easy matter
for the one lone member in the
house to call a committee meet
ing at any time to consider mat
ters o f interest to his party.
Prior to the election the mayor
and council o f the tow n o f Wes
ton issued a circular calling on
the people to vote for the licens
ing o f saloons and arguing that
the license money was needed to
defray the running expenses of
the town. The admonition was
heeded and Weston went wet.
This is where one ot our so called
Normal schools is located and a
great place it is to send young
teachers to get high ideas of Kte.

I f the published statement is
true that one o f the members of
the faculty o f Willamette Univer
sity has been let out on account
o f his having incurred the dis
pleasure o f some o f the business
men o f Salem, by attempting to
have the saloons closed on Sun
day, it certainly don’t speak very
well for the trustees o f that in
stitution. I f this is the view the
managers o f Willamette take of
such matters, people w ill begin
to wonder if a mistake has not
been made in bringing the re
mains ot Rev. Jason Lee, the
Methodist missionary, back to
Salem for burial.
The average farmer is always
overwhelmed with work and this
is the explanation o f the untidy
appearance o f many farms. And
yet, somehow, the farmers that
prosperare more apt than others
to be those who have always
kept things looking attractive
about their places, suggests the
Oregon Agricultuist. It is going
to pay the farmers o f Western
Oregon individually and collect
ively to make things look at
tractive on the farm. It is worth
a great deal o f money to a coun
try to be attractive in appear
ance and we have great possi
bilities in that line.
The following, where a moral
is clearly shown, is taken from
an exchange: Recently a church
congregation in a little Kansas
tow n built a new church. To
pay for it they were obliged to
call on the merchants o f the com
munity for donations. The mer
chants responded liberally and
$300 was raised from this source.
The last man asked to subscribe
was John Smith, jeweler. “ I
w ill give you $5 if you will let
me add something to the sub

ie fifth time, Alonzo A.
Phillii ot Cornelius, Oregon, has
lushing bride to the hyme
neal altar, the last time being
May 30, when he was married
to Mrs. Leonia Craig, o f Man
chester, N. H., at 271 College
street, Portland, Rev. Henry A.
Barden officiating. Mrs. Craig
was a widow, possessed of a
$15,000 estate, left her by her
former husband, on condition
that if she married again she
wpuld forfeit the snug nest egg.
When she met Mr. Phillips, how
ever, she lost no time in parting
with her $15,000, as she con
sidered she could do better than
retain it. The $15,000, however
does not leave her tamily, but
has been handed over to her
grown son.”
There are many wives who
would part with the husbands
they already have tor a much
less sum than that named above,
and consider they were driving a
sharp bargain.
Examination of the Back,
For the Osteopathic doctrine
to be taken up by “ American
Medicine,” one o f the foremost
weekly publications o f the “ regu
lar” school, in a recent editorial,
and flaunted to the breeze as the
thing, was an eye opener to some
of the “ regulars.” The article in
question was by the'venerable
Dr. George M. Gould, probably
the best authority in medical
journalism to-day I t is frank
and convincing.
“ b a c k a c h e .”
“ We are glad to see in the
Monthly Bulletin o f the Indiana
State Board o f Health, an article
on ‘backache,’ because this and
many similar subjects greatly
need ventilation. Dr. Hessler
thinks backache especially needs
pure air, because he contends
that nine tenths o f the cases in
which the symptom occurs are
due to infected dust. T o this
theory o f the etiology we, of
course must disagree.
“ The Osteopath is reaping a
harvest because the ‘regular’ has
been culpably neglectful o f the
need of examination o f the backs
o f his patients. Thousands of
patients—if not millions—are to
day suffering from mal-formed,
ill-shaped backs and curved
spines, and are treated for every
ailment to be thought of, while
neither practitioner nor patient
has the least idea ot the true
cause o f the symptoms, and the
back is never examined.” (Just
what the Osteopaths have long
said.)
“ The vertebral column may
show all sorts o f abnormalisms.
One shoulder blade may be higher
than the other; certain muscles
areknotedand hard and bulging;
certain others, soft or atrophic,
the spines o f some may protrude
in a noteworthy prominence;
others may seem wholly ab
sorbed.
“ It is when these troubles are
beginning and still functional
that the wise physician’s inter
ference is needed. But what
medical college teaches the art
and science o f examination o f the
back? Who thinks o f it?”
I t is indeed encouraging to
note that this leader ot the medi
cal press should adopt the noble
policy o f aiding medical practi
tioners to get abreast ot the
times. Dr. Gould, besides edit
ing “ American Medicine,” is the
author o f “ The Illustrated Medi
cal Dictionary” and was “ Presi
dent, 1893-1894, American Aca
demy o f Medicine.”
It is true, as the representative
medical papers o f the land month
after month are telling their
readers, that “ The whole profes
sion and even its colleges are be
hind the times in important re
spects.” “ That must have been

Dr. Arnold’s opinion too (quoted
in last week’s article) when he
said that “ internal conditions
manifest themselves by certain
distinct signs that may be ob
served bv the proper examina
tion o f the back.” .
Dr. Gould’s disagreement with
Dr. Hessler’s theory o f the ‘etio
lo gy’ (cause) ot ‘backache’ being
“ infected dust” is another o f the
good “ Signs o f the Times.”
These bacteria (little bugs) or
“ germs” have been a great
“ scarecrow” to the Medical Pro
fession. Osteopaths do not deny
the existence of germs: We know
they exist and must be dealt
with. The thing to do is to keep
the body in normal anatomical
alignment; then it can perform its
physiological functions properly:
This means health, and the body
can readily resist all invasion.
I f any part o f the body is weak
ened by disease,, germs can gain
a foothold there and multiply.
But as long as the body is kept
healthy there isn’t the least dan
ger in the world from germs. I f
this isn’t true why is it that
sometimes one or tw o children
out of a family o f five do not
have diphtheria? It is a very in
fectious disease, caused, so the
“ regulars” say, by a specific
germ, the Klebs-Loeffler bacillus.
No germ can exist, or even gain
a foothold, in healthy tissue.
There is where the good work
o f the osteopath comes in: The
treatment, taken in time, is a
prophylactic i e. I t prevents dis
ease. It keeps the body healthy.
There is an old “ saw” that runs
like this: “ An ounce o f prophy
laxis is worth a pound o f cure.”
But to revert to Dr. Gould’s
frank question: “ What medical
school teaches the art and science
o f examining the back?” None
but the Osteopath’s, o f course!
The Old Schools do not take
into account these departures
along the. spine and elsewhere
from the normal, Not studying
these things, they cannot know
how they could produce ill health,
That it does so has been proven
in thousands o f cases by the
osteopath. They are the real
first cause oi disease.

A SPECIAL WORD
Unless the delicate, exactly ad
justed parts o f a watch are kept
clean and lubricated, they are
certain to become worn to a
greater or less extent and the
movement will surely lose its ac-
cu rdey. T iny particles o f grit are
bound to work into the best pro-
tected movement; the oil wili.be-
come gummed in time and these
combined will serve to cut and
g rjn(] the pivots and cause fric-
tion.
Every watch should he thor-
oughly cleaned and oiled at least
once m eighteen months, aqd if
yours has not been cleaned with
in tft&t time, it should have im
mediate attention.
We w ill cleanyour watch pre
cisely as it would be done in the
best - watch factories—take the
movement entirely apart, clean
each wheel, cog and pivot sepa
rately, assemble and regulate it—
and when yon get it back you
may depend upon it being in
“ perfect shape.”
