This problem ,has to lo with our treatment of public officials all along the line. AVe elect men to office and proceed to expect the highest service, with the lowest material remuneration.. This demand mi(;ht lie justified, ;if there were n public disposition ;o co-operate with and assist public officers so selected, or if, as in some countries, honor were connected with the discharge of public duties. But the reverse is true. In nine cases out of ten, a public official jnce in' office is left alone except when some complaints arc to be registered., "SVhen he docs good work, there is silence, when he hap pens to muke a mistake, as the best officials do, everyone raises a howl. ' , ''' " Unless we arc willing to have our positions of public trust and re sponsibility filled cither by incompetents, who have nothing to lose; or crooks who see a chance for private gain, there must be a com plete change ia. public sentimenta "thorough-going revolution in the attitude of the people, toward officials whom they have called upon to serve. . 0 There is another point in the present local situation, which renders tho position of prosecuting attorney unendurable to any person of sensibility or self-respect. x A recent state law was passed which allows the governor to name a spfjeli pToseciify in-aiiy district, wherein his judgment, the in cumbeiifc itfnot. discharging the duties of his office satisfactorily. We are not familiar with the exact provisions of this law, but if the procedure in Jackson county lias been legal, then the law should be repealed, . , , , . If a public' prosecutor is not doing his duty, then he should be removed. If he is so crowded with work that he needs assistance, then he should te given assistance. : But. to appoint a special prosecutor over the protests of the regu larly elected official, the official whom he is supposed to uss'ist, in other words not only to divide responsibility, but to inject dis sension .into the office of law enforcement itself, is so preposterous, so unthinkable that one can't believe any person would seriously propose it. The prosecuting attorney who succeeds Mr. Moore should bo the PROSECUTING ATTORNEY. If he fails to do his duty ho should bo removed.

Notad Physician and Author Signed letter pertaining to pergonal health and hygiene, not to -disease diagnosis or treatment, will be answered by Dr. Brady If a atamped, self addressed envelope Is enclosed. Letters should be brief and written In Ink. Owing to the large number of If; Iters received, only a few can be an swered here. No reply can be made to queries not conforming to Instruc tions. Address Dr. William Brady, In care of this newspaper. A Broken The layman's lancuaKe is. often as meaninpleBs to; tho doctor as tht doctor's in to the layman. For in auincc, I haven't the ' remotest idea what kind of wart a "need wart" ia, tho I Rather from the queries of read era that It Is a very common variety. And with 20 years of more or less in tensive study of lay medical parlance. I am still uncertain what - the layman meaim by "bad com plexion." though it must have nome def inite signific a n c e, for ho many readers wish to know what would be good for ii. It was only . re cently that I stumbled or. tho solution of another lay term which had al ways mystified me, and I experienced a thrill like that,, of tho chap who achieves the solution uf an acrostic. The term was "weak ankles." Tho difficulty was that I had fallen Into the bad habit of thinking of tho ankle as a joint, whereas, had I been moro attentive, I should have known that "ankles" include pretty much all of the calves or legs up to the tibial tuberosity or thereabouts and that is what pave "ankles" such a vogue in tho rocent past. "Weak ankles" aro pronatcd feet, tho potential or earlier or functional atago of fiat fee:. A broken vein hi another lay term which has no certain meaning. Some times It signifies a dilated vein or venule, which shows thru tho skin: sometimes it means a raw spot or ulcer such as tho common varicose ulcer on tho leg of one with varicose veins; sometimes it means an actual break or rupturo of .tho vein with hemorrhage. The littlo dilated venules (they aro little veins, not capillaries, which often occur about tho cheeks or the wings of tho nose, may bo obliterated by electrolysis, but a physician or Bur geon of skill should be consulted when such treatment is required. Tho actual brcakine or rupture of a varicose vein, an accident much feared by persons with this trouble, is certainly a very fare one. Should it occur, thero need bo no great bleed ing.

As a matter of practical fact, tho layman should resort to direct pres sure to control nearly any wound. bleeding". not:until such method fails' should he attempt to apply a tourni quet or "twister" to a limb, for tho shutting off of tho circulation by a tourniquet or "twister" endangers the vitality of the limb. QTKSTIOXS AXI) ANSWERS Tobacco and Sweat Pleaso tell me also what sweat Ih composed of. Any Information you can give mo on sweating will be gratefully received. Answer. Sweat is composed of water chiefly, with traces of urea, uric acid, creatin, aromatic oxyactds, ethereal sulphates of penot and ska tol, serin and albumin, tho not suf ficient of nny of theso to be of impor tance. Sweat is 90. G percfcnt water, about 0.3 per cent common salt, and tho other 0.2, per cent alkali no sul phates and 'phosphates ajid traces of .fatty acids (which glvo tho character istic odor) and the several substances mentioned. So the only important substance eliminated from the body In the sweat is water. - In a fast round of boxing or a few rounds a man may excrete three' pounds of water. Weak Lungs If a person has weak lungs can tho lungs bo strengthened by tho proper treatment so as. to throw off all pos sibility of tuberculosis, even tho It be inherited? If it Is treated before the germ really has developed and the proper caro is taken is there any chance of ever really having tubercu losis? (G. J. J.) Answer. You are just playing with words; It is a dangerous pastime. To say "weak lungs" is. merely to dodge tho issue You havo tuberculosis of the lungs, or you haven't. There is no such thing asj''weak lungn" so far as a physician's examination can show. There are but three honest opinions a physician can givo ttifsuch a case, after proper examination of tho patient. Ono is. "You have tuber culosis in such and such stage. The second is, "l'ou have no tuberculosis, in the beat of my judgment." The third is "I do not know whether your trouble Is tuberculosis." "When a doc tor calls such trouble "weak lungs." or "a cold that hangs on" or "a slight catarrhal condition," he is not giving honest service. If you have tubercu losis, the germ has developed, of course; if you haven't tuberculosis thero is no germ to worry nbout. - .

' Frlc mluli ips Under Suspicion ; In granting a divorce to an ag grieved wife in Chicago, tho other day, ' an elderly judge made this astounding remark: "No married man seeks the ac quaintance of a single woman for any good pur pose." Then this ancient fossil yes, I mean the honorable Judge g ranted the wife a divorce, the custody of the youngs t e r s, and hinted that ho would, later on, allow her a spanking good alimony award after ho had a chance to think the matter over. Fancy such piffle! M'hat in the world is there in the human make-up which views all decent things as suspicious? Why cannot two human creatures, sex complexion out of tho question, be friends, without some absurd busy body seeking to find something wrong, unclean, evil, about tho association? It Is altogether too bad that there exists this yaller streak in the human consclousnefs. , For a pompous old party to set himself up as a judge of motives, when ho probably hasn't the least notion of what a decent friend ship means. Is a sad commentary on tho flippant, casual way we have of1 perpetuating the divorce fetish. I Actually, our divorco Ideas aro as j grotesque and as elemental as the ; sun-dances and tho devil-worshipping, stunts of the aborigines, whose ignor-j anco and low mentality wo profess to , patronize from our superior Intellect- i ual plane. If an honorable friendship ; cannot exist between two human lie- . ings of npposito sex, without the siis- 1 picion of an immoral influence, it's pretty near time for this weary obi , world to shut up shop and call it a day! If you are shocked, my children ascribe my revolt to tho weather or tho high price of fur coats. Both ' upset mo today.
