It Is to
IT IS diffioult to please the Democrat:. The Oregon Journal
for example, has lambasted the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill,
innumerable times for imposing the highest rates in history
and robbing the common people for tho benefit of Big Business.
But when it comes to an Oregon product, the esteemed ,
Journal maintains that the Smoot-llawiey rates instead of being j
too high AREN'T HIGH ENOUGH! j
Oregon and Washington senators it declares, have an oppor- j
tunity to render their state
putting a ingn import tax on mmoer, as nas Deen aone on coai
and oil, and thus save the American market for American
ocrmen, ana pui minureas ot
the job.
IT IS difficult to believe one's cars! From the standpoint of
the Journal this is nothing short of political treason.
For if it means ANYTHING it means the Journal believes
in the principle of a high protective tariff. It means the Journal
agrees that such a tariff would reopen closed mills and put
thousands of idle men to work.
If this is true of Oregon's chief manufactured product, then
why isn't it true of the chief manufactured products of oilier
states f
J"0E.S the Journal seriously maintain that placing ,i liiuli
tariff on the chief product of Massachusetts, is a CHIME,
and placing the same tariff on the chief product of Oregon
ISN'T!
This is the only conclusion a reader of Oregon's foremost
Democratic nowspaper, can reach.
It curses out Hawlcy for granting tariff protection in the
East, and then curses him out for not granting it in the West.
Poor old Willis and all the other Republicans. As far as the
Oregon Journal is concerned they are demned if they do, and
damned if they don't !
Know Your History
TPHIS is a good time for the American people to read up on
the history of their own country.
During the past few days we
of Medford to whom we gave
One agreed with "Judge" that "the fear as to WHEN
business will return to normal is exceeded by the fear that it
HAS." He was convinced this depression is worse than, and
different from, all other depressions, and figuratively speaking
marks the end of the world.
The other w"s a middle-aged man out of a job, who was
convinced that for him there could be only ruin ahead, for men
down and out at 40, "never come back."
TpIE first man was advised to read tho history of the cco-
nomic depressions in this oountry the past 100 years. Such
a reading would show him, that every depression at the time,
has been gonerally considered the worst and the last, the end
of a good time era, never to return. And yet each depression
has been followed by an era of greater prosperity than ever
beforo. Judging the present by the. past, and this is the out
standing lesson of all human history there is nothing inhorient-
ly different in this depression,

Grant.
At 40, Grant was not only down and out, he was a drunkard
and a deadbeat. He and his family were kept from starvation
only by the grudging aid of his two brothers, who pitied poor
Ulysses, who had made a complete failure of everything he had
attempted. '
Yot ten years later U. S. Grant, was tho hero of his country,
President of the United States, later to be aoclaimed by the
crowned heads of Europe, as he made a triumphal tour of the
world, the most outstanding success in his generation.
XI71IAT folly then for anyone "down and out at 40" to see
only ruin ahead. Equal folly to regard this depression
as the end of the world, when all previous depressions have been
similarly regarded, and none proved to be.
"Know thyself" and know your country, it's the best recipe
we know for confidence and optimism at the present time.

MODERN METHOD OF TREATMENT OF HEMORRHOIDS.
Lay and medical readen will re
call with various emotions the con
ductor's characterization of tonsil
lectomy (removal
of tonsil with
g u 1 1 1 otlne and
anare or scissors
dissection) as
"the old Spanish
custom." Today.
Z am happy to
note, a large
share of the bet
ter physic lana
everywhere are
using or advising
for their patients
the modern diatherm method in
preference to the old standard sur
glcal tonsillectomy.
Nothing ao stabilizes a physician's
point of view of these quest ions as
having the ailment himself. For
yean I believed and practiced the
policy of waiting 48 noun In cases
of appendicitis and then operating
If operation seemed necessary. But
when I developed appendicitis my
self I didn't want to wait at all:
my anxiety was relieved only when
I was loaded on the little go-cart
on my way to the operating room.
Physicians u al n g the diathermy
(electro-coagulation) method for the
tonsils tell me a considerable share
of their patients are specialist. You
see, the throat specialist know
something.
Now please turn with me to a
tender subject the treatment ol
hemorrhoids (piles). Heretofore X
have believed and advised that the
standard clamp and cautery opera
tion Is the beet treatment. In thla
operation the base of the swollen
inflamed varlcoae vein which con
stitutes a hemorrhoid Is seized and
constricted In the clamp, and the
protruding maaa la either seared off
or first sheared off and then seared
with the actual cautery an iron
heated red hot. Thirty yean ago
this was perfectly good surgery. But
now It seems pretty crude.
Why this sudden change of atti
tude? Well, why have eo many good phy
sician changed their opinion and
practice in respect to the treatment
of varicose veins in the legs, in
fected tonsils and hernia in recent
yean? Because more satisfactory
and safer method have been found
practicable.
Here and there (at present I
know of only a few) physicians are
treating hemorrhoids with much
sattlsfaction by the Injection meth
od, which need not give any pain
and doe not detain the patient
from ordinary activities. This method
has proved so great an improve
ment upon the standard clamp and
cautery operation that I am confi
dent It will come Into wide use
among thinking physicians, and ac
cordingly I am giving the informa
along In Mussolini's path, or find a
new way, outside of anarchy?
In Nice, a divorced man marries

A few dava aco a man came to our

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Don't Toughen Skin.
Can you suggest some method of
toughening the skin on the bottom
of the feet? How about a dally
bathing with salt water and vinegar?
R. J.
Answer It is not advisable to try
to toughen or harden the skin of
the feet. Rather try to keep It soft
and pliable. Send stamped enve
lope bearing your address and ask
for Instructions for care of the feet.
Ultraviolet.
Are direct ultraviolet rays' tnju

welding? At what distance from
the flash do the indirect rays be
come harmless? Is the Injury per

Answer1 Yes. If the eyes are not
carefully protected the glare from
the welder is likely to cause cata

WISH THINKING.
By Alice sfudton Peale.
That people tend to believe and
to remember what is pleasant, that
they tend to confuse the wish with
the fact these are old stories In
modern psychology.
As parents, however, we largely
fall to understand and apply what
this means in rearing our chlldnn.
We peralat In demanding of thera
absolute truthfulness. We neglect
to make allowance for the child's
natural tendency to ay what he
wishes were so Instead of what
actually la so.
We say that he lie when he la
only Indulging in a crude and naive
form of the wish thinking which
is characteristic of most of the men
tal operations of adult.
If Johnny tells tall tales of highly
Improbable happeninga in the cias'
room and on the playground we may
let him see that we an akeptical
We may even say that he ha ex
aggerated and ask him to check
over the facts, but we should not
make him feel that he 1 a liar.
A child will alway remember the
day. the hour and the place when
a party, a treat or a pleasure or any
sort is scheduled.
He will not always recall Just
when his composition was due
on what day he waa supposed to
mow the lawn.
The aame drive which makes a
child forget dutlea and remember
pleasures, which makes him Invent
delightful happenings in place ot
painful and humiliating ones, causes
him sometimes to distort the be
havior of others.
He supplies for their action the
motive and Interpretations which
are more agreeable to him than the
actual ones. He misconstrue what
they do in hi own favor and say
and all this he does quite honestly
and Innocently.

of course, gets along with him de
pending in large measure on how
much he earns and provides but
real love died with old age. She .
won't admit it, of course, and like '
most egotistical men he won't face
the facts, declared C. J. Mains, the
nationally known expert on gray
hairs. Imagine a parade of gray
haired men down the main street
