The Tale of A Dog
TJEW things are really appreciated until they are lost. You
have a hound dog, have had him for many years. He
has become an old story and not a very interesting one. You
give him a half-hearted pat on the head, now and then, but
day in, day out pay little attontion to him. You tolerate him,
and decide if it were not for the children, old Fido would
be liquidated, as a household fixture, that has outlived its
usefulness. In short he is just a nuisance.
Then you get up one bright morning and find no Fido in
the weather beaten chair. No Fido to unlimbcr his antique
joint, and paw your trouser
made. Fido has gone. Someone
and he never returned.
PRESTO change. Fido was only a wreck of his former self,
Tlllf Vml Ann 'f Want in Inan )i!m Vnu rtowf a,nl, .Inn '4 ntant
him to suffer, out. in the cold
so bad after all. He was, all in
you ever had. No doubt his feelings were hurt. How could you
have treated him so indifferently the past few duys. Home
isn't home without having Fido to kick around.
Whereupon the most important thing in the world is to
get Fido back. Business calls. Yes but business isn't so im
portant, business can wait. The first thing on the program,
is to scour the neighborhood and find the dog. Neighbors are
phoned, the police chief is informed, an ad is put in the paper,
reward is offered. And great
who has merely been making a
borhood garbage pails, with his
his moth eaten tail, returns.
Democracy s
GO WITH the voting franchise which, from coast to coast and
border to border, is being exercised today, by the free
and indopendont citizens of this great country. It's an old
story. Of course they are voting probably the largest out
pouring in the country's history. But there are pr'eciouB few
citizens going to the polls, with any very keen appreciation
of the priceless privilege they
must be .performed. Some have
performing. One vote won't make any difference, let Ocorgo
do it. If 60 of the men and women of the country, go to
the polls today, it will be a high average, from ten to fifteen
million of them will probablv
But what a different picture
many other countries of the world, had happened to this one.
Imagine what the humble citizen of Germany or Italy, would
give, to have what every American, high or low, has today
the inalienable right, to participate, as an entirely free agent
n determining, what, his government should be. A right that
makes him the ocpial of every
or poor, no one greater or more
IT IS to be hoped, this country
nenitin institutions, to really
pears to be a deeply imbedded trait of human nature, not to
fully appreciate what ono has until it has gone. And then the
saddest words of tongue or pen, arc these four words, it might
have been. Appreciation comes, hut it comes too late!
With free governments, however, falling all over the world,
with true democracy remaining, only with English speaking
peoples (including the Scandinavian) it would seem, possible,
for the people of this country to at least appreciate what they
have, as they never have before, and njiikc up their minds to
fight harder, and make greater sacrifices, than over before,
to keep, what at such sacrifices of blood and treasure, was
given them.
CO WE coino around, by a somewhat different route, than
heretofore, to that same old wheeze, familiar to all our
readers for lo these many years. if you haven't voted there
is still time to do so. Those who fail to vote, are slackers, false
to the primary obligation of good citizenship.
The first step toward the decline and fall of democracy,
is minority government. Those who have the vote, but are too
lazy or too indifferent to exercise it, arc doing all they CAN
do, to bring about, minority government. In a democracy,
mmm-iiv government cau l endure, for no free government
can ondurc, unless it is backed by public opinion, unless it
expresses the will of the majority. And only the people them
selves, hy exercising their franchise, can bring that about
So once more, if you haven't voted, drop whatever you
are doing, and go to the polls and do so. Majority rule, con
stantly exercised, is today's democracy only hope
Looking Into The Future
pROBAMIjV tonight, certainly . tomorrow, congratulatio
will begin to pour in on a new President of the Unit
Mates Congratulations are fitting. To be President of the
I nited Stales, is the greatest honor that can be bestowed upon
any human being, now inhabiting this old ball of dirt and
cinders.
Hut as, on the eve of this momentous decision, we look into
the crystal ball, as we look at the world today, ami the
probabilities of the future, particularly the preplexing prob

whoever is elected, we fear we won't, feel particularly inclined
to march up the street, banging a wash boiler and' throwing
the editorial ehapeau into tho orotic.
No, the responsibilities are too great, the future too un
certain, the job too appaling. We shall not be surprised if four

railed to win buck in V.KKi, and was free to return to private
life not the victor, was the one lo be congratulated !

WHAT TO DO WITH HAMMER-TOE.
When on at the small toe b
comes humb-backed or flexed at the
first Joint It 1 called hammer-toe.
The hump or top
of the Joint
stands up promi
nently above the
plane of the
other toes, and
the patient la un
able to straighten
It out.
Crowding to
gether of the
other toes, from
wearing shoes
either too short
or too narrow or
pointed, c a u s es
the distortion. The summit of the
flexed Joint la subject to constant
pressure against the shoe leather and
often develops a painful corn.
Taken early, hammer-toe may be
corrected by adopting proper foot
wear, or hotter by going barefoot or
wearing open sandals much of the
time. When rhoes aro worn the up
pers should give plenty of room for
the toes, particularly avoiding pres
sure upon the hump: the uppers
should be of soft loather.
In more advanced hammer-toe a
careful application of narrow straps
of adhesive plaster over the hump and
under the toes on either side, and
a second strap under the tip or head
of the hammer-toe and over the tips
of the toes on either side, will retain
the toe In proper position and In
the course of several wecka correct
the deformity. The adhesive plaster
may be most readily removed by soak
ing It for a few moments with ordi
nary kerosene, when a fresh appli
cation Is made.
Where the conditions of long stand
ing there la contraction of ligaments
under the Joint and at the side, and
in order to relieve the trouble It Is
necessary to divide these contracted
and shortened ligaments, then retain
the toe In straightened position hy
me-ns of a splint f: -' two weeks. The
ligaments may be divided subnitane
ously. that is, through a small punc
ture at one side of the toe, under
local anesthesia, palnlesr!y and blood
trssly. j
In a few cases where the Joint la
much changed In shape and sine from j
prolonged partial dislocation (com
parable with bunion) nothing short
of resection will give relief.
The enlarged, distorted heads of the
bones must be removed and the toe

As anyone can see, thla Is reducing
stray analysis to Irs proper level. But,
when such a system Indicates any
thing less than a 50.000 majority. It
indicates nothing. So when .most of
the analysts now rut Illinois In the
category of "probably Roosevelt.' they
do so oit of respect for the Chicago
Kelly oNsah machine rather than from
the figures, which Indicate only that
the state Is highly doubtful.
Tho same system also gives the fol

The trouble la that these figures
probably underestimate the Roose
velt total 3 or 3 percent, because
the Digest does not reach much be
low the tele phone -subscriber and
auto-owner class. Another serious
defect Is the fact that straw polling
does not work out as accurately In
populous centers as in the country
districts. It la physically Impossible
to poll a city, especially If a-political
machine la operating In It. Cross
sections of sentiment Just do not run
with divisions as clear-cut as In rural
communities.
Consequently, these analyses should
be taken only for what they are
worth an Interesting Indication.
Chairman Farley la said to havo
run Into more trouble than the Re
publicans In raising money during
the last two weeks. The unofficial
and voluntary levy on federal em
ployes la suposed to hava been boost
ed from a to 3 percent In soma ln
atancea. Most amusing or the latter-day
campaign stories la the ona about the
newsman whose girl-friend works for
tho government. She received a let.
ter Inviting a contribution, without
mentioning any figure. The news,
man disguised himself as a govern,
ment employe merely by washing his
race ana leaving Ms hat at home.
He called upon an assistant treas
urer hero, and asked what contrlbU'
tlon should be made. The assistant
treasurer told him: "Three percent."
"That's all I wanted to know." said
the young man, bowing himself out.
The assistant still thinks he was
talking to a customer.
The government will resume busl
ness Wednesday. It haa been In ad
Jourment for about alz weeks. Every.
body In the department haa been
out campaigning for Roosevelt.
The exodus from the agriculture
department waa so great that the
president appointed the weather bu
reau chief aa acting secretary of ag
riculture a couple of weeka ago.
Everyone above the weather man waa
out campaigning.
Likewise, tha acting secretary of
the Interior la the comparatively low
ly chief of tbe geological survey. The
preeldenttal order appointing him ex
pires today, when the secretary and
all the higher-ups are expected to
return from the stump.
It la a matter of general Inside
knowledge that strong pressure waa
put upon some reluctant AAA of
flclala to get them to make speeches.
H. R. Tolley, AAA administrator, ac
tually apologized In hla first one.
He explained to a western audience
that It was the first time he ever had
done such a thing.
Another high agriculture official
Inalsted on taking leave without pay
before doing any campaigning.
