McADOO, is vv maintained that if his name tioned for high office, liis association with Mr. Dohcny would never have been considered by the senate committee. Partisan polities, Mr. McAdoo blames, for the entire miserable performance. Mr. McAdoo is quite right in being indignant, 'but he is quite wrong in blaming partisan polities for his predicament. The force behind the McAdoo exposure does not come from Republicans, but from democrats, from those members of Mr. McAdoo's own party, who oppose his nomination. This is personal not partisan politics. Republicans have been de lighted and amused by the McAdoo incident, but they have not been working to defeat McAdoo's nomination by the Democrats. Probably the Republican leaders, wider tho circumstances, would like to see McAdoo chosen. The effort to grease the skids for McAdoo with Tea pot oil, has come -and conies today, from the Smith, Reed, Murphy, "'aggert factions of the Democratic party. And this is quite natural. Everyone can agree that ns legal ad viser of the Dohcny oil interests in Mexico, the former Secretary of the Treasury as a lawyer in private practice, was well within his right, and justified in getting as much money as Mr. Dohcny would pay. When he resigned Mr. McAdoo frankly stated he did so because he wanted to make money. lie proceeded to make it. Hut what Mr. McAdoo could properly do as a private citizen, and what he could properly do as a candidate for tho presidency, 'were and arc two different things. "With the recent oil exposures as a cer tain issue in the coming campaign, with Mr. Doheny as one of the chief malefactors, tho question is automatielly reduced to the follow ing political query "Does the Democratic parly wish to choose ns its standard bearer l.fce chief legal adviser of the man who gave ex-Secretary Fall a check for $100,000?" ' . ' There is the entire situation in a nutshell. It is not a matter of partisan polities. It is a matter of democratic party policy. Mr. Mc Adoo has a right to be indignant, but not against the Republicans. His indignation should be directed principally against himself, and Fate, for having chosen a path to width -which by an unforsecn chain of circumstances led to the QUILL Not every woman marries a man try it later.

Wax, he has a wooden knee; ho sometimes wobbles in his tracks, from pain he's never free; but when I nsk him how the stains, "I'm feeling fine," says he. If he elected to repine nnd groan and tear his hair, if he sent up a frequent whine, to chide him none would dare; but ho insists he's feeling fine, and right side up with care. So he's become a house hold word, and when we see him pass, we say, "Heboid that grand old bird I lie sounds no vain 'alas;' he makes all grumblers seem absurd, and in the ten cent class. For he' has gutta pereha feet, and he must wear a wig, with wooden teeth he's doomed to eat the luscious prune and fig; and yet he finds existence sweet, and grand and fine mid big.

The kind you have always bought bears signature ot mm Personal Health Service By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.

Lcttera thou Id be brief and written in ink. Owing to the large number of letter received, only a few can be answered here. No reply can be made to queries not conforming to instructions Address Dr. William Brady, in care of this newspaper. ; LcuniJiiB Tilings A correspondent describes a rather common and harmless condition in children which Is called geographic toncue, from the m a p 1 i k e marks which are seen on the tonKue. She says "1 took him to six doctors. None seemed to be able to ton me the cause or what it was. At last I took him .to Dr. , the child specialist, who said n o t h i ng serious, called geographic tongue, didnt require treatment. But today while waiting in the dentist's office 1 marled reading n dental mag azine. It had an article describing such a tongue and said it was syphilis. Is that true? 1 am greatly upset nbout it." A moral which may be drawn from the Htnry is that laymen should leave medical literature severely alone for the best interest of their health and peace of mind. There is no mischief capable of working more havoc than an attempt on the part of the layman to study "doctor books" or to read de scriptions of diseases or their symp toms. I believe it would be the part of wisdom for thev layman to study or read nothing relating to disease or health unless tht reading matter has been approved bynis family phy sician. So much printed, matter dealing with disease and health is wrongly inspired nowadays that it Is really unsafe to put ' confidence in anything of tho kind unless it has the sanction or approval of some properly qualified censor such as the family doctor. Jtight away somebody will remark that some family doctors are incap able of passing Intelligently upon such reading matter, since the doctors have not familiarized thonisilves with the great mass of printed matter dealing with theso subject,. That is often ;iuit true, but if the doctor has not nad time nor inclination to investigate all the pulilicatioil.'l personally, he ha: available responsible sources of information. So has the laity in gen eral. Kor examplo, nnybody may send :i query of this kind, along with a stamped envelope for the reply, to the American Medical Association, 535 N. Dearborn street, Chicago.

I know of no blood test which would detect such a condition, unless perhaps the germs might be found by making a bacter iological culture from the blood. Hernia, Is there any cure for hernia?

Letter. from the stnto Kamo' war den's office in Portland' have been received by a number of sportsmen in Modford and Ashland containing re leases to be siRned by them .for the wild ducks and geese that they were keeping in the various cold storage places in town, as these birds were confiscatert uy the government. This action was taken as the result of a state law covering all migratory birds so that they could bo kept i:i cold storage no later than Januaiiy 15. On January 27th, Kny Steel, U. S. game warden arrived in Medford and inspected all the cold storage places and noted the names of those who had game there nnd has since sent them these notices of confiscation. This lnw is little known in the val ley and is exciting some comment anVong sportsmen. EE THE GREATEST THING IS THE WORLD by Laurel Ora A missie of my acquaintance whis pers confidentially that she's not goine to marry her Lord Jim. "No?" this is my sur prise, for I know the child is mad about him; "No," she said, slowly, "and I am afraid you are. going to think me hard and mercen a r y. But tho truth is, Lord Jim is earn ing only $2800 n year. Ho likes his Job, too, and that's the trouble. I don't believe he would ever leave the firm, and I know they will never pay him more than 15000 a year and that will be years from now." How in tho world can a marriage be a success on less than 1100 a week?" she looked at me a little ashamedly. because she feared I would scold. But Wanda . is . quite right if that is the way she feels about Lord Jim. If she loved him as much as she must love a man who is going 'to be her husband, she wouldn't stop to -think about the things she must co without on 2800 a year? It is true that Wanda cannot have Rolls-Royce, but I know at least one young matron in this town who has a Royce. who would gladly exenange u for a flivver coupe if she could have a Lord Jim with all Lord Jim's win some ways with ;it. Money does not bring happiness. Poycrty is a terrible handicap for love In a cottage to sur vive; I dolefully admit that. It isn't right for a man to ask a girl to mnrry him if he cannot support her in com fort. Nor is it fair for a girl to fix a luxurious idea of existence of ease and idleness in her mind as a necessary adjunct of marriage. "I cannot cook or keep house worth a cent," said Wanda, a little bit brazenly. What would Wanda think of a fellow who said with equal boldness: "I cannot support you; honey, but I think we ought to be married?" ASPIRIN Beware of Imitations!
