At the first general session of the
sixty-fifth annual convention cf the
Anicrlcau Medical Association here
today, Dr. Victor C. Vaughn was In
itialled as president of the aseoeia
lion hero today, Or. Victor C. Vaughn
was Installed a president of the as
sociation, succeeding Dr. John A.
Wlthcrcpoon of Nashville, Tenn.
Dr. Vaughn mado "tho wjrvlco of
medicine to civilization" the sub
Ject of his Inaugural address.
"In tho last century the averago
of human llfrf has been Increased by
1C years and this incrcaso could bo
duplicated lu tho next 20 years," he
said, "If tho facts wo now possess
were effectively employed.
"Tho further development- of
medicine, both curative and pre
ventive, depend on scientific inves
tigations. Tho public In tho beno
ficlary and should In every way en
courage medical research. Tho fed
eral government and tho states should
sustain and promote scientific re
search. That government Is tho best
which secures for Its citizens tho
greatest freedom from disease, the
highest degree of health and tho long
est life, and that pcoplo which most
fully secures tho enjoyment of tlie-o
blessings will dominate tho world.
"Wo boast of a great civilization,
lilt this Is Justified only within limits.
Tho historian of tho futuro will have
no difficulty in convincing his read
ers that those who lived at tho be
ginning of tho twentieth cecntury
were but slightly removed from bar
barism, as he will tell that tho school,
saloon and houso of prostitution
flourished In proximity; that tho
capitalist worked his employes under
conditions which precluded sound
ness of body; that tho labor union
inau dynamited buildings; that white
wo scut mlsslonarlus to convert tho
Moslems and tho Uuddhlst, 10,000
murdors woro committed annually In
our midst, and that a large percent
age of our mortality waa duo to pro
vcntablo dlseaso."

SUBURBAN WATER RATES.
FINAL action by tho ity council upon-Water rates to
be charged suburbanites will bo taken soon. Upon
tho decision of tho council depends, to a large degree, fho
growth, development and progress of tho ad.jaoont terri
tory honoo.of tho city itself.
There are approximately one hundred water consum
ers outside the city limits.' .Many of them are lUctercd.
Xo one who pays motor rates wastes wader.
There are approximately twenty-two hundred water
consumers within the city limits, very Tow of whom are
metered. Many waste water sufficiently to fiU street
gutters. Others let it run continuously in the house, in
stead of taking ice. Many irrigate market gardens as
well as lawns at flat rates. ,u
When there is a water 'shortage it is not duo to the
hundred outside users, many of whom cannot secure wat
er except when the lvsorvoir is full, but rather to the in
capacity of tho distributing system and the waste of the
2200 inside users.
The proposed new schedule is so high that it is pro
nibitivo. It is higher than anyone, unless ho be a million
aire, can afford to pay. It makes a water rate of about
$2r an acre per month for lawn and shrubbery, on the
light soils of the hills.
To charge a $2.5)0 monthly minimum with 25 cents a
.1000-gallons is. more than is charged in any city in the
country for outside consumers. Portland, which charges
ji comparatively high rjite to the outsiders, has a one
dollar minimum, 22 cents per 1000 gallons for the first
lf)00 gallons. 30 2-! cents per 1000 gallons for tho next
150,000 gallons, and i;l U) cents per 1000 gallons for all
over 151.500 gallons.
The injustice of the proposed increase in rates is iiiiiu
ifest when it is realized that the raise wjis made without
notice of :iny kind. The suburbanite did not have his day
in court. Persons were permitted to plant gardens and
lawns, nothing said about a change in the rates that would
force a change in plans, until the hot drv weather of sum
mer is at hand, and the suburbanite given the option of
paying doulile rates or losing the work ot the past few
months and lotting improvements die.
The struggle iu hard times for a living is hard enough
without uniiccessarv burdens that will drive needed de
velopers out of the country.
council takes a broad view ot
former action.
STRETCHING
A' Scries of Duslucss Talks by A. M. Burroughs, of the Burroughs
Adding Machine Company. Copyrighted.
A Northern Indiana furnlshln?
goods concern went out of business a
few months ago. When mo stocn
was Inventoried some caps were
found which wcro made especially
for tho Grant-Colfax presidential
campaign in 1S72.
Tliiuk of that! Stock forty years
old.
The caps cost about 2-c each and
there wero three dozen ot them, cost
ing $0 in all, wholesale.
Charge up a percentage equal to
the cost of doing business against
that JO worth or dead stock for -10
years and see what It cost tho mer
chant to keep It on his shelves.
Ask tho banana man who standn
at tho cornor of Seventh -street and
Tranklln a von no In St. Louis, how
much ho could mako on that $9 in
40 years In his business. Then you
will know what It would have pro
fited this clothing concern had It not
kept that stock on tho shelves If it
had mod the capital right.
This banana man buys a cart load
of bananus every morning, costing
him about 'J, and sells them before
night lor S20.
Since ho works every day, holi
days and Sundays, ho turns his capi
ta) every day, 30 times a month.
On a capital of $9 ho does n gross
1-uslnoM of more than $5000 In tho
ulna months ho Is able to work.
In 40 )oars ho could do a gross
business of S. 92. 000 on that little
capital without increasing his capi

What would he make if ho had
19000 capital and appllod tho same
principles?
Any wonder the chain store fel

and undersell the "good-enough-for-mo"
one-man store?
The ownor of a chain of six sloros
has never put n single dollar of hi.

ho opened.
When ho opened his second store
ho began buying In small quantities.
stocking up every day and scllln,;
tho goods before thu bills camo duo.
In a short tlmo ho opened hU
third store, without putting any of
his own money Into It. Soon he In
creased his chain to six stores.
Now he is doing business almost
entirely on tho other inaVa capital.
Ho buys In very smnl quantities and
discounts his bills with tho proceeds
from tho sales of tho goods.
If tho retailor provides himself
rlth accurato and complete detail In
formation about his sales and his
stock on hand, ho can practically do
business entirely on the capital of
tho houses from which ho buys--and
mako thoso houses glud to lo
him do It.
Hut Isn't It better to stand tho ox

big profitable buslnesn on little capi

records and do a jwiail unprofitable
business on tho most capital you can
