'It is well,' ohscrves the Philadelphia Inquirer, 'when the President of the United States and the prelates of a great religious hody agree upon the nature of the disease and the remedy.' While the President deprecates a tendency to shift moral obligations on government and institutinnnlism, it is insisted elsewhere that govern, pient, too, has its part in effecting reform by improving unhealthy eeonomic and industrial condition., . "A feeling of disquiet pervades the separate messages when they take account of conditions in the home. In their message of 'love urn! counsel,' the Iiishops of the Episcopal church, in convention at New Orleans, say they 'see a weakening of the tics and a loosening of the standards of home life, due to lack of proper parental con trol and to the absence from homes of definite religious influence.' They say further: " 'We see in our land lens of millions of men and women who acknowledge no connection with religion, and, as a result ' a large proportion of our children growing up without re ligious influence or religious teaching of any sort. Can we fail to sec the connection between this situation and the spirit of lawlessness, the startling increase in crimo, and especially the increase in the number of youthful crimhuds now chal lenging our attention.' "And to President Cuolidge, too, it is apparent that 'there are too many indications that the functions of parenthood are breaking down.' Jn his address to the international convention of the Y. M. C. A. of tho United States and Canada, in Washington, quoted in full in the metropolitan papers, President Coolidge warns us further that 'too many people are neglecting tho real well-being of their children, .shifting the responsibility for their actions and turning over supervision of their discipline and conduct to the juvenile courts.'

You try this corkscrew for seven days; you sternly test it in fifty ways; you pull the cork from n row of flasks, you pul the bungs from n dozen casks; and if you find it tho best you've known, you send the makers n silver bone; but if you find it a false alarm, you send it back, and it's done no harm. You send it straight way to Gigg & Uard, and they'll acknowledge no feelings hard; they'll merely nuk to supply your homo with their newly pat ented fiue'-tooth comb. You send, no money, you merely say you'll try tho comb as the makers pray; you'll comb your whis kers mid comb your hair, and try it out on a polar bear, and if it isn't tho finest comb you ever used on your classic dome, you send it back and no harm is done; but if it suits you, you send tho inon.

In the presence, of all and sundry medhul or health writ ers who cshh.v to explain thlnK to the Ki-and old public, I keep my kelly Mil lied firmly dowji upon my ears; at th sumo time I modestly inuke no boast as to what miht huvo happen ed to all tho sick cats people have con sidered me incompetent to attend, had people felt more confidence In my medical skill. The jjjreat Dr. Osier himself unquestionably had many su periors In tho practice of medicine, though he wan the foremost teacher of his time. For that matter, I have no doubt that there are many reme dies, cures or methods of treatment or of diaKnosl.H better than those which wo consider tho best; 'knowledge of which pood doctors have not imparted to their colleajxues. In other words a very fine doctor may be a poor teacher, a. miserable author and no authority at all; and vfre versa. Nearly every morsel I offer is a translation from the tnedlcnlese into everyday parlance. Rarely, however, I yet internal Inspiration. This morn inff as I lay in the borderland between slumber and waking, sniffing suspi ciously for the aroma of coffee when you pet it you know the cook has ruined the coffee nnd thinking how nice it is to he young nnd determined to avoid work that's one thing Osier drew the line on, one learns In read ing CtiMhlng's Ufo of Sir William, and Carlyle, loo, carefully evaded, ac cording to Proude In fact the lives of all great men nil remind us we can make our own fairly easy It is the first 10 years of living without labor that Is hard as I drifted aimlessly among these Idle thoimhts it dawned upon me fro mthat birthplace of ideas, tho subconscious, that the public has never been properly appraised of the fact thnt we are in a new era, and that consequently nearly everybody is still puttering along In the old. at consid erable cost In health and money. Tho new era Is that of asepsis, tho aseptic era. The old era was that bf antisepsis tho antiseptic era. ! Jtlght here it will become obvious ! to tho discerning reader though I! am not nt nil sure there Is such a i render that powerful interests in perfectly good odor nre wllliiTg nnd prepared to spend the public's Inst loose dollar If necessary to keep the public -hack in the antiseptic era. nnd it Is more thnn mv Hfn ns ft tenher is worth to even Ihdlcato or identify i these interests. Jf you can't guess who or what they nre, you may re- ! main there where you are dawdling. If yon do pet tho Idea you enn readily comprehend how the very life of nn extensive Industry" nnd business de pends on holding the householder in tho antiseptic em nnd why the Inter ests appropriate such nn enormous amount of the householder's budget to tho purpose of keeping him in that ern. For, once tho householder breaks- away and takes a think for himself he Is pretty certain to hop blithely forward into tho aseptic era. nnd once arrived there ho will inevit ably cut down ruthlessly on tho sum he has been in the habit of squandering- nnnunlly on mere fancies. Several laymen have nlready heard that tho nntlHoptic, era of surgery is a thing of the past nnd that modern surgery is aseptic. I want everybody to know that tho same advance has been made in sanitation and In house hold practice. If I can ldnnt in your mind a suggestion which will not only forward your general well being but also snvo you pood monry. it won't matter much whether I am a success or n failure with sick cats, you'll have to admit I am a good teacher. Well, before we call It a day. let's make certain wo know what we've just been talking about." Asepsis means without Rerm life, without poisoning of that character, free from infection, a state of sterility so far ns germ life Is concerned. Anti-sepsis merely signifies retnrded or discour aged perm life, n condition which bin- tiers the growth or multiplication of germs, or nn effort to get rid of ln- body. nnd the majority of tho agents which were popular iti the old era did not greatly disturb the germs which happened to be disporting themselves on the surfaces or in the cavities of the body. This does not imply that germicidal agents aro of no vulue in surgery, win llatloti or household practice. ' The first aid application of lodln or other germicidal agent to the fresh wound is still, tnu hest routine practice. All I hope to convey to the greatly misguid ed layman in this respect is the sug gestion thnt it is' practically always futile, if not actually harmful to at tempt to rout germs with antiseptics. once the germs huvo invaded the tis sues; that Is, It is foolish to:imaglne such agents hnve any remedial value after Infection has taken place. Whether antiseptics nre- worth while In the prevention of infection di ns prophylactics against dlseuse, is a question to debate another time. QUESTIONS AND AXMVKRS. Bleeding to lcaili.
