A nye day (11.0,4 Safety When Motoring The automobile season is in full bloom. There never were so many beautiful and luxurious cats to be seen as is the fact to -day. The general use into which the motor car has come, in both city and country, is demonstrah- ed on any city avenue or country highway. The owners of these cars are hivariably enthesiastic over their purchase. 'I hey say in chorus that they wonder they Nsere without a car for so long a peeincl. They will tell you that the pleasure they receive is not to be defined In Newels; buy one, they say, and you will never regret it. And this is probably all tioe-provnl- ed always. that the purse will with- stand the luxury. The growing company- of antomobil- lets demands that there ebould be an increased observance of the rules that make for safety. It seldom happens that an accident in these cars is una- voidable. The exercise of a little judgment and control of the speed mi- crobe that seems to lodge in every motorist's nailed will save life aud car wear and tear, The Long island Rail- way Company has begun a campaign aloeg this line that might well be tak- en up by every railway company and automobile association, A feature of this campaign is the posting of gr eat, signs at many of the crossings ot the railw,ay, beating these word--; THIS SIGN MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE TO -DAY. - All the precautions in the world will not save the lives of those who drive automobiles recklessly - over railway crossings.

REILLY-STEER be hit hard, and that it is Os. apt to. he sou and yours 00 anybody How seldom does any automobilist step at a railway crossing [0 seriously inquire if a train, running perheps at sixty miles an hour, is coming. He has crossed the railways hundreds of times, and has never been in clanger; hence, he regards the crossings as quite safe. Yet what the railway company says in its notice -all the precautions in the world will not save the lives of those who drive automo- biles recklessly over railway crossings -is perfectly true. The generation in which we live is privileged beyond tbe dreams of tbe generation that has passed ou just ahead, The automobile is one oithese privileges, Let those who are happily able to enjoy it be careful not to abuse the rights of others, the rights of those who entrust themselves to the car, or the rights of the motor car it - 1 self. -London Fxee Press.

That eminent rotdicel roan, Sir Vic- tor. Horsely, in a recent article in the British Medical Jennie' in opposition to the rem ration, goee to boundless' trouble to make it clear that the rune ration is part c,f lbe "free ration diet- ary" ef the British soldier in opposi- tion to both scientific and military ex- perience, and is in no sense to be at- tributed to the advice or tenders of the army medical service. To quote Sir Victor: "At this point it must also be remembered, for the sake of our honor as a profession, that the Army Medical Service, though an absolete essential of His Mejeety's forces, has not only never been ac- corded a proper place in the ad- ministration of mile ary affairs, but even now has no tem esenta- tive on the Army Council; c.onse- quemly the medical profeesion cannot be held to be primarily re- sponsible to the nation for evrors in the vital question of army bye giene and the medical and surgi- ca4cnarfeaeotf LbastoLdyit. rt.s still, even in 1915, constitutionally, and in spite of the efforts of the British Medical Association, in a simila,r state to that of the days of Queen Anne, when tbe medical officers of His Majesty's forces bad ne real pesition and when the interests and health of the soldiers' were treated by tradition and beliefs in- stead orfceof science-, TScionee speaking through Sir Sir Lander Brenton, in his lectures on the "Acetone of Medi- cines," when telling of a party ef en- gineers surveying in tbe Sierra Ne- vada, says: " They camped at a fy,reat, height above the sea level, where the air was very cool, anti they were mis- erable, Some of them drank a lit- tle whiskey and felt less uncom- fortable. 4.t sI some ef them drank alittle Whil,l,ey rend event r) bed feeliT4r yerv jolly find com- fortable bele" 0 , 'Bet in the morn- ing the Int,” ttlio had not taken wniskey got up ell righi; ihose who had taken a little whiskey got op feeling •vevy unhappy; the men who had taken a lot of wide - key did not get up at all; they were simple frozen to death.
