Don't Wait Till the Last Minute to Buy What You Want fop Presents. All hough more and more is be ing said every year about doing Christmas shopping early, a large share uf the public docs not coin niHiily ileciile what it wants until about December 21. Such persons are hardly likely to lo much preliminary buing. There are a good many people wiio do not care to make such perfunctory gifts. They are sick of presents thai, are so ill-suited to I tie needs of I he recipient that they find their ways into closet shelves and waste baskets as soon as they can be safely put out of sight. Such people have Christmas bioing in ininil all through the year. If you have your eyes open in that way the things you like turn up in unexpected quar ters. If you wait until just before Christmas scrimmage you almost never find what you want from the tousled assortment of pawed-over poods. Tlie next two weeks are a golden time o buy Christmas gifts. The store will have addi tional slocks wliich are fresher to. day llian I hey ever will be sub sequently. Think of that, if the lough plight, of the poor clerk under the strain of the pre Chrislmas week does not move your heart. Li gbts flio foment You Uoni Them T! HE Pilot Acetelyne Gas Machine is entirely auto matic in operation and requires no attention what ever. Every light is started with an electric spark, which does away with the use of matches, and also makes it impossible to open a gas jet without the gas being ignited at the tip. This rr a :liine makes gas just as it is reeded and posi tively no more. This it( m alone is a great saving over other machines that have a different style of mixing, which leaves a quantity of gas in the resivoir, which loses its burning qual ities the longer it stands. Gas from this machine can be run to any of our out buildings. This is absolutely the only machine that is giving perfect satisfaction at all times and under all conditions with out any extra expense after installation. This machine can be seen any time at our store.

HEATING! HARDWARE! j Kditor I'lallsniouth Journal: fn a recent article entitled "Health llureaus and Medical Freedom," your paper touches on li question of increasing import ance to the world, and I would like to stale briefly the conditions making necessary Hie organiza tion of the National League for Medical Freedom, which is oppos ing Hie establishment of a na tional bureau of health. The American Medical assncia- as previous ones of a like nature, because the American Medical as sociation wanted such a law. The National League for Medi cal Freedom is not composed" of cranks and quacks, but of intel ligent ciliens, who make no criticism of the treatment, accord ed I he sick by I he practitioners of any school, but they art! opposed lo anything in (lie shape of a "medical trust," ami many allo pathic doctors, members of the lion was originated for the pur-! American Medical assoociat ion, pose of encouraging ils members ; ym,v with the move- to 11 higher ami more dignitlcd plane of llioughl ami action, and lo make more easily available for the public the results of seicnlillc rosenrrh through the free ex change of conclusions resulting therefrom. The association is composed almost entirely of nllo-j pal bin or "regular" physicians ami their original purpose was truly laudable, but Ibis first thought has been losl sight, of in the manipulation of the associa tion for selllsh ends by I be politi cal doctor who are in I he minor ity. In their work we have seen many attempts in various slates to isolate and disqualify the sin cere practitioners of id her schools of healing, giving no considera tion of the good those persons may have accomplished and be lieving investigation along oilier lines to be only an encroachment on their privileges instead of something which the people were entitled to. How well these plans succeeded may be seen in the fact thai the t'niled Stales governmenl employes only "regular" doctors for the simple, reason thai 110 others are able to pass the exam imiuons provided, ami llus now applies to some 7,000 positions Knconraged by some successes in those efforts and spurred on by the growing popularity of the homeopaths, osteopaths, eclectics -Christian Scientists and chiro prnclies, these clever politicians conceived the idea of centralizing in a national bureau of health which they Imped lo control, the power to eventually dictate the methods to he employed in t ho treatment of disease. These con elusions are verified in slate menls made by officer of h, as orialion and ils various ad Vocales. The attempts to scour a national bureau of health hav extended oer a period of nior than a score, of years, the latest being embodied in what is known as the "Owen bill," being (ho first, one filed in the senate during the recent special session of congress Us sponsor is Senator Robert I Owen of Oklahoma, and he has ttnid he present" d the bill, as we menl, hoping to rid the profes sion ol tlu sligina of cheap politics. The medical freedom advocates wish lo give to the "regular" doctors any credit to which they are justly entitled, at the same lime believing that the unfortunate should have the full 1 lenellt of discoveries by any scientist, there being no man able o frame a law tlisl inguishing who hall and who shall nut do some good thing for humanity. The igue meinliers liclievo that quackery ami jealousy will bo suc- essfully eliminated only by lovating the ethics of the science of healing disease above I hose do- grading thoughts, and according lo the unfortunate the best pos- ible service, with the full know- edge that results will accurately lelerinioe which Method shall en dure. The league offers no legis lation, is not opposed to quaran tine or sanitary regulations, has no criticism lo make of any per- LEGAL NOTICE.
