health had been declining, and for the iast six weeks he had been confined to his bed under the care of a physician and a trained nurse. He ts survived by a widow. Mary Bolton two sons, James Monroe, who lives near New Goshen, and Jacob Harvey, who has been a ganger in the revenue service for the last 21 years.

For the last twenty years Mr. Bolton has figured prominently in political circles in the county. He was nominated on the Democratic ticket in 1898 for county clerk, but was defeated when the entire republican ticket waselected. Again in 1900 he was a candidate on the democratic ticket for county treasurer. This election resulted in a tie vote and the state supreme court awarded the contested election to the republican candidate. In 1906 Mr. Bolton again made the race for county treasurer and was elected. His faithful service in the office led the party to nominate him for the second term and lie was elected.

All day Thursday many friends visited the Bolton home to offer their sympathy and pay tribute to the man whom they had learned to love.

Monastir Endangered.

.Judging from the size of the Bulgarian forces rushing from Tetovo southward and from the initial success of their new turning movement, wnich has changed entirely the military situation in southern Serbia, Monastir is in distinct danger. Not only has the Bulgarian maneuvers necessitated abandonment by the Serbians of their position at Babuna pass, but the Serbian forces which have been holding this entire region are now in peril of being surrounded and cut off by the Bulgarians advancing southward from Krushevo.

Little is known of the Serbian situation in the north except that determined resistance is still being offered by the Serbians against both Germans and Bulgarians who have made no fresh gains of consequence.

In southwestern Serbia successes for the French and British are reported. The Bulgarians are said to have been compelled to retreat on the Vardar lVont and to have sustained a check at the hands of the British in the Rabravo section.

The enemy's artillery seeks not only to strike at our defense, but

and an attempt made to carry it into execution when the people discover that it does not go to the root of the evil. "Searching and groping for fresh above all to destroy systematically the

Yesterday the enemy's batteries directed bombardments against flourishing towns of Mossa and Lucinico on the Isonzo plain. These towns are now heaps of smoking ruins.

CLEAR DOCTOR WHO ALLOWEDINFANTTO DIE

abortions a day and an automobile accident every round of the clock is hardly in position to criticise a man who holds that death is preferable to life to a defective."

The telephone rang. Dr. H&iselden answered and for five minutes talked with a woman. She pleaded with him to save the baby's life. When he returned from the telephone he smiled grimly. "She called me names," he said. The little bundle stirred and a faint cry was heard. "Not much longer to wait, little one," said the doctor gently. Then he added to those near him: "He's dying."

Dr. John B. Murphy, former president of the American Medical association, and physicians and professional men and women, including a number of clergymen, generally took sides with Dr. Haiselden. But his critics were just as numerous.

Mrs. Anna Bollinger, the mother, remained nearby. Many times she asked: "is it dead?"

She remained steadfast in her belief that death was best for the little cue. She has three healthy children and the plight of the condemned one is believed to have been due to an attack of typhoid fever which the mother suffered recently. The authorities took no action further than to determine that no death certificate should be issued until after an investigation by the coroner.

Doctor Issues Statement. In a signed statement today Dr. Haiselden gave his case: "I say again that it is our duty to defend ourselves and the future generations against the mentally defective we allow to grow and suffer among us, and add to our burden and our problem. All conscience says it is our duty. "Farmers select the best stock for reproduction the best seed, without rust or other disease, for sowing. "Poor humans rely only upon cnance, and defectives are as welcome as any to enlarge families. Think of it! "And only the mother will look after the idiot child. If the mother is taken the father and brothers and sisters will not care for it. It is put into an instiution and there the burden of the poor unfortunate Is weighted down ever more. "Institutions are an abomination To herd the insane or the lesser defectives like cattle, as is done, is a crime and a sin. And to make matters worse, this unfortunate class has no attraction that is going to draw the keeper, the guard, the nurse or whoever takes care of it, to greater kindliness. Those who take care of the insane, many of them, growing unfeeling, unkind, neg lectful and indifferent. "And yet, I am asked to allow this child to live, knowing what I know. feel towards some of my critics as 1 would toward one who would willingly allow a hydrophobic dog to run in flock of sheep and do as impulse directed because one shrank from hurt ing or crossing the doy. "If children of some of my critics were killed or injured by a defective they would see a good reason for checking the supply of the latter in the world."

DISROBE WOMEN, SEARCH.

Austrians Find Spies Carry Messages Under Plasters. PARIS, Nov. 18.—Amazing ruses are being employed by women spies along the Austro-Swiss frontier, according to a Geneva dispatch. The Austrians are forcing all women to disrobe and be searched.

Military documents recently were discovered concealed beneath a plaster on the back of a woman who carried her arm in a sling. All women travelers are taken to a bath room, stripped and scrubbed with hot water.

Frequently thin pieces of paper on which military information is written are found stugk on women's backs and concealed beneath veneer or cosmetics.

Painter School Chiropractors Have Their Sheep Herd of Imitators

To be a leader, to be the man to convince and perfect an idea, requires brains and years of careful research and study. To be an imitator is merely to follow in some one else's path with sheep-like stupidity, and repeating, but poorly, with parrotlike mimicry, the teachings of the master.

And as it has always been with every new thought, chiropractic has been imitated. The science of chiropractic was discovered by D. D. Palmer, of D.avenport, la., in 1895. Until that time no one had ever dreamed of chiropractic. Now, there are many schools that are only mimicking the originators of this wonderful science.

Chiropractic was not fully developed until 1903, when B. J. Palmer, son of the discoverer, D. D. Palmer, after years of assidious study, finally perfected the first theories. The wonderful development and growth of chiropractic is unparalleled in the history of scientific endeavors and was only achieved under the guidance and watchful care of the masterful mind and indomitable energy of B. J. Palmer.

Mr. Palmer has successfully launched a college for the instruction of chiropractic and has graduated thousands of highly efficient practitioners from his, the Fountain Head School of Chiropractic. The course taught by the Palmer school consists of eighteen months and includes the study of forty subjects. The sheep-like imitators' longest course is six months, while many courses are correspondence studies.

But no school so fully understands chiropractic as to be able to compete successfully with the Palmer Fountain Head School. At the Palmer School the original thought was achieved, and, common sense tells you, no man or group of men can know more about this science than its originator.

You owe it to your health to take chiropractic adjustments for the cause of your disease, and at the same time make sure your chiropractor is a Palmer school graduate.
