Unless they display "a spirit of unfairness scarcely In keeping with the fine tradition of your paper." Unlesa the facta as stated, tho basically correct may serve to mislead "It they are not followed up by the brief statement (about 1300 words) contained herein, which I trust you may find space tor." Unless they have stated Vie case so clearly, so accurately, so fairly and so entirely In keeping with the opin ion of the reader that he I provoked to offer his heartfelt congratulations. Unless they contain a typographi cal error, giving a Rabelaisian flavor to an Innocent sentence, which makes the whole town laugh. (Exchange) U. S. Wants No Dole Tile misery of unemijbyment is to become the object of much demagoguery this fall and winter. Intensification of the welfare work of existing agencies is the only sound method of unemployment relief yet discovered. Where co-ordination of established welfare agencies and public poor departments seems tral community unemployment committee is advisable to handle details of registration of the jobless and to supervise efforts to provide work for them. Local less unsympathetic than national therefore more desirable. There is a growing opposition to any form of dole for the unemployed. There will doubtless be an insistent demand for this type of aid from tho next Congress. In New Hampshire any form of dole issued by the federal government will reflect upon the FARMER, FOR THE AGRICULTURAL WORKER IS LEFT OFF THE LIST OF THOSE WHO BENEFIT WHERE GOVERNMENT DOLES ARE GRANTED. The farmer, how ever, pays a disproportionately large part of the taxes from which the governments share of unemployment funds would come. ' The New Hampshire farmer is in no position to stand heav ier tax burdens to provide either partial unemployment relief to wage earners, or to contribute to government subsidizations of economic and social movements designed to further raise the standard of living of the American people and thereby create a greater domestic market. Nor is the New Hampshire farmer in a position to success fully compete with labor as long as industry maintains wage scales not subject to direct fluctuations, as is the farmers in come, when commodity prices, as on milk, tumble precariously. If standards of living are to be still further advanced in or der to increase the size of the domestic market, the farmer must expect his burden to go on up proportionately, unless more effective devices for taxing intangible wealth are discovered in the meantime. James M. Langley, Chairman, Unemployment Commission New Hampshire. Tammany Turns Reformer - THE Tammany Tiger has assumed a new and strange role. The same Tammany which has endavored to block at every step the Seabury inquiry ordered by the Legislature after a succession of scandals had aroused a public demand for investi gation of social corruption in that the "housecleaning'' be York state. The same Tammany which the blossom of official honesty York City "the cleanest and best conducted city in the world," according to Mayor Walker is now discovering that up'state cities are veritable sinks of iniquity, which must be investigated and purified. But to the pure all things are pure. How could the innocent and gentle kitteu which the new Tammany pur ports to be, see so muoh that is evil and so far from hornet THIS is the same inoffensive little beastie whose mas- ter termed the legislative investigation a crucifixion of Tammany and in the next breath admitted he, had made a secret telephone call to ask a judge on vacation to hear a plea for a Btay of sentence for a witness in the Seabury inquiry who had been adjudged in contempt of court for refusing to tell with whom he had split fees said to aggregate $2,000,000 while acting as an advocate before the municipal bureau of standards. This is the same purring pussy which has bared its claws ut Governor Roosevelt for daring to accede to the. public demand for a special session of the Legislature to give the Seabury in vestigation the power necessary to compel such recalcitrant Tammany witnesses to testify. This is the meek little Tiger which demands that the jungles of corruption in other cities be thoroughly explored. UNDOUBETDLY there are tilings in other New York cities which could well be exposed to the cleansing light of day. But enough has already been uncovered in New York City by the splendid work of Mr. Seabury and his aides to show that other housecleaning jobs can wait until the mass of misgovern nient which has accumulated in the Tammany attic has beon removed. , If Tammany had been in any degree friendly to the investi gation which is so evidently necessary in New York City, there would be loss reason to feel that this new reformist zeal is merely an effort to drag a red herring across the trail of the Tiger. And if the Tiger had really lost its stripes and become a lily-white kitten, it might expect more success in this effort. As matters stand, there is every indication that the Seabury inquiry will continue steadfastly and calmly to help the people of New York City obtain decent municipal government.

NEGLECT A BOIL AND Nature will cure any boll x ab scess but she doesn't earn .-.ow much the victim, suffer froru the slow but sure cure she effects. It Is ull the same to nature if the curing kills the patient. That holds true whether It Is a case of a simple boll or a broken leg or croup or whatnot. It doesn't matter much what you've got nature will cure It, all right, If you live long enough. A boll near the rectum soon be comes a large abscess, and the ab scess, If not promptly - opened and drained, presently becomes a fis tula. Not a few ca: of bolls or abscesses In this region terminate In natural "breaking" and complete healing after a few days' drainage. But you never can tell and you never should put your trust in na ture's surgery. A few whiffs of laughing gas or of ether and the' doctor can ac complish In a second or two, pain lessly, what nature taken days ti accomplish and regardless of the suffering of the victim. Fistula Is a kind of tunnelling of the region by a boll or abscess that falls to "break" or be opened on the skin surface. At first the tunnell I ng Is along one tract; If long neglected It may have several branch tunnels. The whole fistula ts like a boll. Sometimes there ts a small opening on the akin stir face, sometimes there is an opening Into the rectum. But these openings are small, and do not permit free drainage. They may become sealed up for a wttlle, now and then, but they rarely really heal spontaneously. Nothing Is more futile than using salves or other local remedies In the hope of curing fistula. There can be no argument at all for any other treatment than sur gery for fistula. In some cases the surgery Is very simple Indeed. But surgical treatment Is absolutely es sential. There Is a common notion that fistula Is cften tuberculosis. It may occur more frequently In persons whose health Is handicapped with tuberculosis, and In rare cases the fistula itself may bo a tuberculosis condition. But no matter. It la curable by surgery, Just the same. When there Is a boll or. as doc tors call It, lschlo-rectal abscess, it la risky to wait till tomorrow for surgical opening and drainage, for by tomorrow It may be a fistula. Generally the best results are ob tained by ambulant treatment of such abscess or fistula. That Is. the healing proceeds more satisfac torily If the patient keeps up and about throughout the period of treatment. The general medical profession ought to be ash'amcd of the record of the treatment of all rectal dis eases. Too often your glib prac titioner Is willing to make a guess at the nature of the trouble with out bothering to make an examina tion If the patient seems a gullible sort. .

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Good Posture. I notice you decry the old army carriage. I was brought up to hold myself as tho I were trying to look over a wall on tiptoe. Please tell us what posture you recommend. P. M. Answer Tour Idea Is good. An other is to stand and sit and walk as tho one were supporting the celling or a large basket of bananas on the head. Another la to keep the chin thrust Inside an imaginary high collar. NEVER try to throw out your chest or pull In your belly. Never mind these. Baby Fond of Mud. Ben aged 2 year, growing like a weed, healthy, has 16 teeth, but Dvery time we let him outdoors he dives for the mud and eats It. H. C. Answer No great harm, as long as the mud Is not polluted by human or animal excrement. Many children have "pica." as doctors call it odd fondness .-for sajid, ashes, garden soil, etc. and as long as they get no actual filth or polluted things It Is of little significance. They get over It presently. There's Just one danger don't let the baby chew on any patnted things, such as cradle or crib or chair rungs or toys, for an infant may develop serious chronic lead poisoning from the paint so Ingested, Impacted Wisdom Tooth. Daughter suffered with migraine for years. Doctor advised extrac tlon of Impacted wisdom teeth. Dentist made X-ray which showed what he thought might be a super numerary tooth in amongst the nor mal teeth. He removed the teeth and the headaches ceased for more than a year. Then they began again and got worse and worse . . finally sho came home, dentist went to work and ifc was work! and after three hours got out the burled root or mass of the supernumerary tooth (from the side opposite to the headaches) and after she re covered from this operation she has never had a headache since. . . . M. H. R. Answer About half of all adult never erupt or cut from one to all four third molars (wisdom teeth). In not a few Instances Intractable "neuralgia" or headaches may be caused by an Impacted or unerupted wisdom tooth burled In the Jaw, and X-ray film will disclose this. In such cases surgical exhumation of the unerupted molar Is the only relief. Young Lady Has Lost Her Spurs Three years ago my daughter's heels were so sore from spurs she could not wear her shoes. , Doctor operated on them and they have never bothered her since.

SYS'OPSIS: At Sinorila rlorw. Juanlta Basara, rns cigarettt ffirl, i accepted tociaUy by Nellie Bel' atee, her prandeoii, Kirk, and their friende. Meanwhile the Marquceet ' Cabrera, the chaperone Divitl has provided, eaeta appraieing eyea on the fewele Juanita'a new Iriende tcear. Juanlta does not knout her at part ot "lit thady pant, nor doet Molly Divttt tell Juanita of her hueband't thievino plant. Bo tar in her new role Juanita hat not met Erio Ltdbetter, who tn trying to remove her veil at Dlvitt'e gambling houte, had intuited her. But the hat met Adrian Fouchf, who had brought Ledbetter there. At the and the marqueta vitit Aire. Belaite at Biloxi, Kirk tentet that hit wooing maket Juanlta like the guilt, ready to fly away. Chapter 20 ADRIAN OR KIRK? SVFTEN Kirk bad that sense with Juanita. the sense of some thing with wings. ... Why did she evade him so oCten. as she had a moment ago on the beach when he bad come closer than be erer had Icome to her? Had some man been Id her lite? :Were they sending ber about America to forget? For all the marquesa's babbling, she had given so bint of sadness in Juanita's scheme of things. Vet sadness seemed the essence of Juanlta. ex cept at such moments as when she played the guitar; for instance. Perhaps it was grief for some one else. Juanita's mother had died the year before. Her father had died when she was a child. Whatever was in her past, Kirk felt that it stood between them more than any prospect ot the fu ture. He would not find the win ning ot Juanlta an easy matter if he took her back to New Orleans. People were mad about her. They liked the marquesa, too, for that matter. No easy race. There was Bob by Crenshaw with his millions, and there was Rod Stevens. Nelly had had them both to dinner, and twice they had driven out on their own invitation. There was Adrian, too. Adrian was in love continually. With Juanlta he seemed prepared to be serious. Tbey would see Adrian tomorrow. He was giving Juanita a dinner on Tarpon Point. And Cranshaw and Stevens were making all sorts of plans for Easter week when Juanita should return to New Orleans. Juanita aeeraed to enjoy them all. Kirk could not distinguish a difference in her manner with any .of them, unless It was with Adrian. Adrian she seemed to avoid, not openly, but in a way that Kirk could divine. For himself, be was certain that she liked him, aware that she turned to him in any an noyance, such as when Adrian had arrived unexyectedely. That night Kirk recalled, was another time when he bad seen her alone. They had gone out into the garden in the moonlight, and he had shown her the bulbul bush. Its red flowers were not open yet, but he had picked one of the buds for her while tbey sat on the garden bench, and the sound of music and dancing came from the verandah, it was a night on which Stevens and Cranshaw had come too. But Juanlta did not turn to him tor refuge from tbe past She let It drop like a veil whenever be came close. , . . Her eyes were full of the sea as sho turned to him, making a move luont to go back. Their hour bad f.ono fast The marquesa was waiting on the steps. Kirk went ahead to meet' her. She stood, bending toward him as he ascended, talking rapidly. Juanlta saw Kirk take out his wal let The marquesa affected to pro test Presently she was radiant, running back Into the house. Juanita looked away as Kirk ap proached. She felt chagrined. Kirk was smiling. "She gives ns bait an hour more," he said. They walked toward the Island's other end where the sun was begin ning to go down in a welter ot red gold. "I'm going back to New Orleans tomorrow," said Kirk. "I'm leaving at six o'clock before you're awake." "I'm not certain I shan't be awake," Juanita answered. "There's been a mocking-bird lately outside my window. I pall him my alarm clock." "Set him for five o'clock," begged Kirk. "Have breakfast with me to morrow In the garden. Does the marquesa sleep hard enough?" "That's her sleepiest time. But aiiy should she care?" "She shouldn't But she does look after you with a vengeance." "She's not looking after me now," uan!ta answered. Kirk's hand tightened on hers, ".'"hat a chance!" he said. It was tranmii! here at the Island's . Parents A M:W M IIOOL KKPOBT By Alice Judson Peale. The parents or a six-year-old boy who had sent him to a progreslre school were chaftrlned to read In his annual report at the end of the year a lengthy discussion of his social difficulties. He had. it appeared, a tendency to u?e abusive language, to Assault his playmates, often without provocation, and on one occasion had even flour ished a pocket knife with blood thirsty Ui rests. It seemed to these parent that the problem of their boy' behavior while at school waa the school's af fair, and no concern of theirs. Schools existed to teach children i what they cuftht to know and It was their business to matte their charges behave. other end. No wind at alL The waves lapped the white sand lazily. Tha sun was sinking fast after Its way in these waters. Soon It would bcr gone, as If a hand had dropped it into the void. . . . Kirk and Juanlta were silent The bathers be gan to flock toward the pavilion. The sun dropped like a red bal(, leaving the dusk. i t Madame Fouche sat In the sum parlor and talked with Mrs. Belaise while Adrian walked the verandah,, his eyes on the sound, now steeped) in the after-glow of dusk. Adrian and his mother had ar rived aforetime. Tbey would spend tonight and tomorrow night In. White Aloes. . "I was thanking of you, Nelly,"' Madame Fouche explained, fanning gently. "Thanking how you sit all day while de yong peoples ron 'round." Madame Fouche was voluminous and comfortable, with black, roman tic coiffure and an agreeable, smile. She had dressed In black since the death of Monsieur Fouchd nine years before. Madame and Adrian lived alone now in the stone bouse. Monsieur Fouchd had been part ner in tbe firm of Belaise and Fouchi, cotton brokers. Tbe Belaise bad been Nelly's husband. It was tbe business that Kirk had inherit ed. Adrian had taken bis place In tbe firm, but cotton, he hd discov ered, is an exacting mistress. Monsieur Fouche bad not died poor. There were some smalt rent houses and a plantation near Baton Rouge. Adrian described himself as look ing after these. Nelly was dressed In a flowered taffeta, with a bertha of old lace. On the table beside her were the. remains of the collation with which she had endeavored to stay the ap petites ot ber guests until dinner. Rhoda, Lorena's daughter, carried out the great coffee urn, and the dishes, restoring order to the sun parlor. "And so," said Madame FouchS, "I tell Adrian, 'Tek me when you give your dinner to Sefiorita Flores, and let us go up tonight.'" "That was sweet of you, Theo neste," said Nelly. "I would never have punished you like this, making you wait for dinner, If I had known. I told them not to eat dinner on tbe yacht because and I didn't want to go with them. They always want me to, but I save myself." "You do not like Sheep Island?" "No, Ship Island's all woods. If Kirk would take me to Caprice But he won't" "De doctor say you mus lay off de gamble ouit" "For a while. Only for a while," Nelly answered. "Pauvre enfant! I will play pinochle wld you. And it you will go to Adrian's party on Tarpon Point I will go too." Nelly shook her head. "That's woods again." "Woods Is nlze. Anyhow, besides, what kin Adrian do? Kirk, he ron away wld Sefiorita Flores. He say, 'Look what I And!' en he ron." Nelly laughed. "I'm to blame. I bad him brlug Juanlta here." Madame leaned forward. "Sefiorita Flores. she is ver' rich nonf" "I couldn't tell you," said Nelly.' "Ever'body say sbe Is rich," Madame remarked. "De marquesa, now I should not say de marquesa Is rich. I thank Sefiorita Flores have feet de bill. Sefiorita Flores she give de air of some one who have money, Nelly, though she have only one jewel dat pearl ring." "I gave her that" said Nelly. "You?" cried Madame. "You give her dat ring? ... Ah, yez when she bring back de necklace!" "No. She wouldn't take anything then. I gave her that later, because it was Delphine's. She looks Ilka Delphine." "Kirk's mothair? ... I do not see " "You've seen only Delphine's pic tures. Sometimes in the evening when Juanlta plays Delphine's harp, It seems as it Delphine bad come back." Madame cast a startled glance at the space by the piano. "Nelly," she said after a moment "I have not know you feel like dat I mus' tell Adrian. He mus1 stay away." "Stay away?" "Adrian is ver' interest in Sefiorita Flores. But he mus' let Kirk have her sence you feel like dat." "That's thoughtful, Theoneste. I'd love to have Juanlta, but I'm afraid she's not for either Adrian or Kirk. She's engaged." (Ccfyritb, Dedi, IliU 4- Ct.) Carel.at N.llyl Sh ahouldnt l.ava her Jewels lying around, tha marquesa agrees with Madam Fouehe tomorrow. A school report should be an ac count ot scholastic progress, not a record of behavior. It Is an old-fashioned point of view, but one ettU held by far too many people. The progressive school quite rightly holds that It la not Just the child's mind that Is being sent to school, but his whole self. And It Is this whole self that must be educated. If you are fortunate enough to be sending your child this year to a school which holds this more en lightened attitude, you will be wise to give It your cooperation. Especially during the first years, re ports which include observations on character development and social ad justment are far more vital than any mere record of academic achievement. From them you may learn how your child ts .getting on In the things that matter most at thia stage of hie growUi. You will get new lights on hts personality, perhaps discovering prob lems you did not know existed and wwta of which you had been unaware.
