(Coos Bay Times) Charles Forty of Port Orfnrd passed through Marsbfleld today In his wny to Sensldo, where ho will iiiuke his hume. Hysteria over "Involution" has hit our fair city. Tho leading downtown foe ot tho Darwin theory, Is pulling up a stiff fight against it, unham pered by the slightest knowledge of tho Iarwln theory. Old F.dd Minns, who has been fight ing the lleef Trust for 17 years, with out getting iii a solid punch, has put up his dukes ugulnst tho fish trust. It Is nil right to figure that tho Con gressmen charged with accepting graft In the Disabled Veteran scandal, Were opposed to tho honUH, because they didn't want the "boys to prosti tute their patriotism." . The YMCA. secretaries In Turkey have been detailed to feed the ousted beauties of tho Caliphate's harem, but the girls won't overeat, If the oi'Hiini gntlun delivers grub, liko It delivered cigarettes in Franco.

McADOO'S eminence as a Democratic enndi iliite dues not proceed from any inherient superiority, but iVnin tlie fliilnesH of tlm Kurroiinilinif country. If there were any Democratic candidates available comparable to Cleveland and Wilson in bye-gone years, Mr. McAdoo, with bis oil .-pattered halilimeiits would be dropped like a hot cake, lint there arc none. Therefore the McAdoo movement refuses to down, and unless something very unexpected happens, Mr. Dobeny's special counsel will enter the New York convention with a substantial lead over his nearest opponent. '' lint this does not mean a McAdoo nomination 'by any means. In fact, as a sporting proposition, the former Secretary of the Treasury has only about one chance in ten of landing the prize. This is un doubtedly a chance worth striving for, but it does not alter tho fact, that in all likelihood a dark horse n very dark horse will win the Democratic nomination. Who-will the dark horse be? Ah, there is" a very interesting question. Certainly it won't be Al Smith, it won't be Heed, it won't be Davis, it won't be Underwood, for with any of these candidates the Democrats would be beaten before they started. The candidate with any chance to win must be liberal, he must be untainted by Teapot Dome, he must be far enough removed from Wall Street to satisfy the followers of labor and the farm Moo, and probably he will, have to be dry enough to satisfy William Jennings Itryan. Where is such it candidate? Kx-Governoi Kalstim of Indiana is mentioned. Governor Iial.stim is not well known in the country out side of Indiana, but he is as well known as Governor Cox who, if we remember rightly, was the candidate in 1020. lie is a good cam paigner they say, and perhaps has never been attorney for any thing as wicked lis ii bank or corporation. IJalston and Walsh hiw would that sound? Not impossible, lint wouldn't Dryan and Walsh sound better? Seems so.

THE GHEATEST TniNCJ IS THE WOKU) by Laurel Ora When Von Imagine You've 'au-liitl Cultl Into It Apparently some go to Florida to oseapw tho cold, nnd some 1o- cnuse it is too hot for them. Wc often think judges would he more lenient if they didn't have to listeit to ho inueh oratory. Most of the people who are hent with toil have learned how to 1)" bent without being broke. The disadvaiilatfp in being a very small tax payer 'in that you never learn to io with a clear conscience. Why should this glorious free people accept foreign titles when all possible honor is conferred by the word "millionaire"? This is the fourth of a series of arti cles about 'the medicine euphoaril, which I hope, mother, aunt Kanny or sister Kate is carefully cutting out nnd preserving until the series is fin ished U get one off my chest about twice a week) for the complete collec tion, bound In a lit tle book, will make !i valuable key to the medicine cup bon rd and ma y be kept In one of the empty pigeonholes of the cupboard for future reference. If you've tuned in late, don't usk me for back copies, as I have none for dfs- tributlon. Sodium citrate has another purpose in tho medicine cupboard besides that which I described In the last article. rt maybe advantageously employed. together with a still homelier remedy, Common fhble salt, to prepare a solu tion for a wet dressing for any sore or wound which behaves as you may possibly Imagine a wound behaves when you're "taking cold into It." Of course, there Is no such possibility the Idea and the phrase itself are ridiculous. When a puncture, cijt scratch abrasion or other break of tho surface is followed after some hours or days by swelling, redness, perhaps throb blng pain, you may be fairly sure the wound has been infected, usually thru your own careless or unintelligent handling. Germs of the typo which produce inflammation and suppura tion chiefly strains of streptococcus and staphylococcal have Invaded the tissues thru the wound. Perhaps you put tho germs on the wound yourself In some dirty ointment or salve. 01 carried them there with your imiuisi tlvo fingers, or rubbed them In from your unclean clothing or from dress ings which were not sterilized. If, be sides the local discomfort, you feel somewhat chilly or feverish, as tho coming down with socalled "grippe," that is probably what doctors call sep tlcemia and what laymen call "acute blood poisoning." In time of soptice mia prepare for the surgeon. Rut let'i see what wo can do for tho merely local evidences of wound infection such ns I havo described. Dissolve a tablespoonful of sodium citrate and three tablespoonfuls of salt iu a pint of boiled water; soak gauzo or common cheese cloth in this wring out to prevent dripping, nnd apply many thicknesses loosely upon and around tho hand, foot or region affected, as hot as bearable, and change these compresses several times a day or night. If the wet compress be covered with some oiled silk, rub ber dam or waxed paper, with a little I'otlon and a bandage. It will do for ieveral hours,' but should not be per mitted to become dry pour a little of the solution 'about the seat of the wound onco or twice in tho night, or if tho wound is painful, remove the dressing nndf soak tho member for half an hour In a few pints of the solution, kept-as hot as bearable, then apply a freshi dressing. Such a dressing serves every good purpose of a poultice, yet does not favor bncterla growth as poultices do. The solution favors drainage from the infected tissues always a desirable surgical condition. Such a dressing is tlio ideal first aid or homo treatment for the condition described, be it from wound, boil, carbuncle, corn, callus. bunion, hangnail, runaround, felon or what not. the questions answered here, readers who wish a reply will please remem ber to' sign their 'questions properly.

You seem to think fat people have no character or backbone. 1 am 5 feet 5 inches tall and weight 194 pounds and I'll stand the meanest things you may say if you'll only tell me how to get thin. (Mrs. J. V. A.) Answer. Well, they haven't any backbone not so far as I have exam ined 'em. Just wait until I got after tho ski miles and you'll wonder if I lovo anybody but myself.

Is there any danger of marking my baby be cause I dislike my neighbor so in tensely? v I am worried about It. (Mrs. S. M.) Answer. No. ' If that were possible nearly every kid running around the neighborhood would be marked. A reasonable knowledge of embryology or prenatal develbpment would make a great source of humor out of tho superstitious yarns which worry you now. Schools are places where chil dren nro kept safely protected from knowledge of themselves for the du; raiion of their formative years and taught a lot of twaddle called algebra, Caesar, Shelley and physiology. When a girl Is turned out of school she Is assuredly uninformed. If not always innocent, and after she Is thru school her education begins.

ARK too prone to rise mid sny, "Our neighbor are n boneheinl erew; far from Culture's path they stray they do not like the books we do." This morning fiaffer Cripess came by, and said. "I feel a mental wreck; I read that Joseph Conrad guy till I had fautods in my neck. I found his story pass ing tame, a washed-out, dreary thing and pale; I wonder how ho got his fame? He surely cannot tell a tale." Then indignation filled my breast, I thought to swat him with my lyre; but 'pru dence told me it was best to let it. slide nnd curb my ire. This Joseph Conrad seems to me the monarch of the writing men, nnd when with him T sail the sea, romance ami youth are mine ag.'iin. So when il nutty neighbor claims that Conrad is a false alarm, a bitter wrath within me flames, and I am moved to do him harm. Hut (ial'fer Cripes spends hours and days perusing Shakespeare, in his shack; he reads the sonnets and the plays, goes through the book, and then turns back. And Cripes can quote forever more the Hard of Avon, line by line; but Sliakespejire is to me a bore, and gives mo spasms in my spine. And so I say it is not well to roast a friend iu bitter tones because ho praises Harold Bell while you arc boosting Itedford-.Tones.
