Kort Kail police dog don't ohange his ways, he will never oe a deputy-sheriff. N1LS Messrs. Asprey of London have , recently originated finger-nails which may be attached or de tached at will. They are made' up to fit each individual finger, of silver or gold, plain or lac quered, In any desired tint. 1 (Vanity Fair ad.) . tit regard to the above there Is nothing much to say except that progress marchee on relentlessly, and that each of the Messrs. Asprey's "recently originated fingernails" set one back the price of two hlnd-tlres. Messra. Asprey's artificial fingernails are detachable, and more fashionable than those originally Installed by the Lord. Many women do not like the location of the eye-brows as fixed by Maw Nature, and have shifted them. Therefore It Is not surprising that the fingernail hues do not suit. Messrs. Asprey have the rainbow to pick from. Nature picked out a tint that would jibe perfectly with the human hide, making a slight error In not sllowlng for the peacock com plex of the race. People wearing the Asprey make of nails, will no doubt always hit the nali they are aiming to hit. It would be alaconcertlng to mlas, and smash a tit artificial thumbnail, the origi nal thumbnail, and the thumb one i tarts with. The Asprey nail la not suited for a sudden desire to scratch, cr picking up a pin for good luck. The wearer has already had his shsre of luck. As for scratching, they will Dave to beck up sgsliut a sharp cor ner, when nobody Is looking. The artificial, or "recently originat ed fingernail," la the work of genius and the field for Improvement on the accessories of Men are unlimited. It would be no surprise If a contraption was Invented to put sneering on a higher social plane, resulting In the offender of good form sneering a match of cathedral chimes, Instead 0. s raucous "who-is-she." The president continues to refuse to act like a Democrat, and tinker with the value of the dollar, via In flation. One Inflationist wsnts chesp money dropped from airplanes, so everybody will be rich. A much easier and pleasing method would be to turn everybodv loose In a bank with a wheelbarrow and a scoop shovel. When the present supply of toln Is exheuated let everybody be hit own mint, ' Back Where We Started From A SIILLION dollars is lot of money. Ten millions ia more. But this Bonneville Jam on the Columbia, is going to cost $31,000,000! Where is the money coming from! It is coming from the government But the government has no money of its own. The only money it has, or can get, must come from the tax payers of the country. So the tax payers must supply this $31,000,000. But have the tax payers any money! Doesn't look like it, here or anywhere else, Most tax payers can't pay their tax bills now. How are they going to scrap, up $31,000,000 more 1ITELL, the answer to that is, they AREN'T. At least not " now. Uncle Sam's credit is atill irood and he is going to use it. This $31,000,000 will come under the head of credit extension, credit acceleration, or what have you. It was the keystone of the Hoover recovery program. In recent weeks it has become the kystone of the ItooBevelt recovery program. President Roosevelt also has the N. R. A. He has the C, C. C. He has the farm relief program, devoted primarily to reduction of supply growing less foodstuffs, slaughtering more pigs, and dumping their carcasses in the Mississippi. But credit expansion, when all is said and done, remains the principal recovery factor, at the present writing. "Wholesale inflation, starting the presses printing money, is still a card up the president's sleeve. DUT in spite of the hue and cry about "greenbacks", "non interest bearing treasury notes," etc., etc., it promises to remain there, for the time being. So, after long wandering we come back to where we started from. The Roosevelt administration is going to try out credit expansion FIRST, just as did the Hoover administration. The other recovery proposals will help. But the final success of the program as a whole, depends upon credit and nothing else. If that fails and only if it fails, will the more radical pro posals, so strongly favored by Senator Thomas of Oklahoma, and other leaders in the Democratic party, be tried. What Price, Bonneville Dam! DUT to get back to this Bonneville dam. Why is it being built t Merely as a relief measure f i No. To supply a demand for more light and power in Oregon, ivhich is not now supplied? No, again. The present private companies can't sell their resent production, and can supply the needs of any future industrial development, through a period of 50 years. Why then! TO SUPPLY CHEAPER UQHT AND POWER. That is the answer. And cheaper light and power WILL be supplied. There is no doubt of that. What will the private oompanics do thent One of two things. Either meet that government competition, or go out of business. Which will it bet No one knows. Only the future can determine that. But it will mean .cheaper light and power for the people of this country, and that, let it be clearly stated, is what they wont. , TPOO bad ! . NOT cheaper light and power. ' This paper favors that, not only as a principle, but as a beneficial factor in its own business. But the roundabout and costly way we have been forced to get it! now could choaper light and power have been secured in any other way t B.v having laws with teeth in them, compelling private light and power companies to sell their product at the LOWEST TRICE CONSISTENT with a fair profit. Laws which would have rendered impossible the financial juggling, the watered stock jobbing, the holding company manipulations, which sent Snmuel Insull, for example, a fugitive to Greece, and reduoed the power and light industry as a whole to a finan cial racket not operated primarily for public service, but solely for private profit. npiIS COULD have been done. And if T. R. had lived ten . years longer we believs it WOULD have been done. For he saw the handwriting on the wall and he had the cure in his pocket. That cure was not to go to public ownership, but MAKE PRIVATE OWNERSHIP BEHAVE! That would have been the better way, the soundly American way, and under such leadership as he would have provided, ' we are confident, it would have been done.

If he keep on the way the la headed I predict she will be mar ried a short time, and ft will seem too long to her. . . And she Is ra ther curious to know my methods Ideas on birth control, my own personal belief from a physician's as well as a re ligious point of view. "Please do not refer me to our family doctor," she says, "because I want to know what you think. You see, you're sort of an Idol. ..." As an Idol I have no religious views to offer. As a physician I would advise any girl who contemplateea a marriage of that sort to remain unmarried. As a plain man I can't understand why any woman should want to marry a man who will countenance putting off the raising of a family, even for "Just a year or two." As a health expert I can assure the young woman who intentionally contracts such a marriage that her unhapplness will begin the moment 'she says "I do." As a brute I believe a man regards the woman he marries either as a piece of calico for his diversion until he lamps another piece of calico that looks a bit fresher and more attract ive; or else as the ideal mother for his children. When a marriage has been blessed there may be good and sufficient reason for the introduction of con traceptive measures. But any one who is well enough, strong enough and financially "able to marry can have no possible pretext for remain ing childless. It Is I lit lie for those contemplating marriage or those who have recently married to ask me for contraceptive information. Nor will I give such In formation to anyone who purports to have borne several children, for I know all mankind are liars. Any good family physician can and will give his patients the best advice about this, in any Instance where advice or Instruction is warranted. Only well defined medical Indica tion warrant the giving of such ad vice by the physician. Only the family physician should be permitted to give suoh advice In any Instance. Where such discretion Is granted te others than physicians In good standing It la Invariably abused to the great detriment of the race. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Cramp In Leg You have mentioned various meth ods of preventing or relieving leg cramps that disturb rest at night. I have found It efficacious to place the hollow of the foot of the leg In which the cramp occurs on the In step of the other foot and press steadily for a few. moments. (P. H. C.) Answer Thank you.

Foot Itch Borne time ago you gave a recipe for "Whiteman's salve" for ringworm of the feet (athlete's foot). We used It and found It cleared up a number of obstinate cases In our classes.

Beverly Hills, CaJf NtW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O. Mclntyre DUT we fear it is too late now. The fat is in the fire. Such a popular resentment has grown up against the light and power combines, publio ownership and operation through such gigantic enterprises as Muscle Shoals, Hoover Dam and now Bonneville dam, appear to be the only answer. e e e a e THE cost of sucli a radical revolution in the national light n rtA nnvip ln4na.i-w -nil!

Securing cheap light and power, through drastic control of private companies, would have cost nothing, except perhaps, less excessive profits among a few inside manipulators. Every light and power company would have been assured the legiti mate profits its stockholders deserved. And we would have had the plant already, adequate to .supply the demand. But securing the same end exactly, by the present method, means first, taking hundreds of millions from the taxpayers, more millions from the tax rolls, and scrapping the privately owned national plant, at least in part, which will add mil lions more. No sympathy need be wasted upon the privately owned com I anics however, at least not upon their leaders like Insull, oq their finnncinl manipulators in VTal! Street. They are merely reaping the whirlwind sown by their blindness and their greed. But it is a stupendous and a needless price to pay I Meeting Srheduled A large num ber of members are requested to bo pesent Monday afternoon at i o'clock, for the meeting o( the Oreatsr Medford club to be h-ld In the club rcoma on the third floor of the city hall.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y., Sept, 29. This hlgh-porched spa nestllnj snugley In the Adirondack foothills owes much of its more recent fame to Its local Mark Twain, Frank Sullivan. So fre quently has ho Juggled this lo cal through his far clcal screeds there should be a Sullivan Square. Saratoga is a one street, ono month town, whose population during the month of August geysers, like a IocaI spring, to 60,000 and sim mers to 14,000 the rest of the year. Its wooden hotels, becomingly vener oble, drafty and creaky, are shuttered anve for five weeks yearly. "Tne United States" is in Its 67th year.' Inns of consequence spread their hlgh-celllnged verandas on the sin gle wide avenue Broadway, euro lined with maples and elms. Busi ness la chiefly tourist shops. Life centers around Its beautiful race course, a 16-mlnute walk. Once Sa ratoga waa America's most fashion able watering place. In the corona of eclipse, the old grandeur shines through. Some of the best families cling to Saratoga during the season. But mostly It's a horsey, blue-ahtrted crowd, touts, rail-birds and the looklng-wlse boys :n wake of ponies wherever they go. Few summer gatherings are so polyglot. In a leading tavern the past sea eon a New York gangster waa en throned with his bodyguard of eight plug-uglies, across the corridor from a famous family of sportsmen, high In society. There are no barriers. Oambllng is wide open from old frohloned hlronomus to the more fashionablo baooarat.

Native springs range from a fuzzy flu with a blear Donated bite to a sulphurous gush that has the linger ing taste and fragrance of a for- Cotten egg. It's all free and they bring jugs and bottles. Some drink a gallon or two a day. plump ladles come year after year In their relent less war on double china. tmbllng the same promenade that re veals the socially eligible young sportsman, Jock Whitney. Oddly, one oi" the charms of the resort Is the stuffed-sofa tackiness of hotels. They are staffed chiefly with Negro help, waiters with snowy rizzes and a "befoh-de-wah" obsA quity.

HOPE Something akin to pain Into my heart comes stealing With autumn here again A melancholy feeling; The murmur in the breeze A prayer for the departing; The sighing in the trees A requiem Is starting.
