This is a paragraph from a NewYork dispatch: "Sufferers from tuberculosis whom Dr. Friederich F. Friedmann treated with, his vaccine before his . departure from Berlin to this country are responding; remarkably to the treatment, according to a cablegram received today by ' Dr. . George O'Hanlon, superintendent of Bellevue hospital. The cablegram came from a Berlin physician. Dr. O'Hanlon said." . There is now a tendency on the part of the public to give Dr. Friedmann fair" play. Too much attention was paid to the howl of the "ethical" doctors and the doctor was viewed as a; faker. Maybe he is but no harm will come in allowing his tests. Time will tell and the man may be in earn est and be on the right track. SECRETARY of the Navy Daniels owns three newspapers and wears white socks all the year round. That's all right as long as he doesnt' get the linotype men in any such bad habits. "FAKE" PARIS GOWNS. From the capital of France comes a wail about the use of fraudulent labels on dresses and other articles of apparel, which are sold ia the United States as French "creations, but are really made in America. The noted "men milliners" of Paris say that their business is injured in this way and they are defrauded of their property in their trade reputation. it is ciear mat tnese trenenmen wronged, for they alone are w"ally entitled to the use of names ch mean much for business purBut it Is also evident that the of these falsely named gowns sily duped and deserving of Vmpathy.

They pay fancy prices for what they believe to be imported products, and they show that they are perfectly satisfied with the workmanship and tbl fabrics of . their own country. They cannot tell domestic from

French. results, and therefore theyi suffer no real loss in the quality of what they buy. Their only injury lies in their feelings, it they ever find out how they have been cheated. Certainly the practice of using the names of foreign dressmakers on gowns they never saw is indefensible, like all other frauds, but it is plain that American products in their line are good enough to satisfy the most exacting purchasers. Women who are willing' and able to pay for the most famous names and the best French work and materials cannot tell the difference when they get American apparel. Then why not buy the American gowns to begin with, under American names? Why risk being swindled in seeking to get French dresses? BALKAN colors are very much the thing this spring and when you see some of them comiiig- from the Standard Steel car district in Hammond you'll know they are right in style. A WOMAN'S FRIEND. The IndranapoIIs Star, taking a conspicuous position upon an adjacent housetop, shouts loudly that Carl Fisher is a member of the Progressive club and a believer in the principles of the progressive party. It is inferred that Mr. Fisher is especially attracted by the new party's championship of the weaker sex, it having been observed that Mr. Fisher recently contributed $25,000 to the cause or me downtrodden woman hood. Fort Wayne News. KENTUCKIAN is in Washington with a plea for office because he has a wife and thirteen children. . President Wilson had better hurry and give him a job or else he will be calling at the White House with the thirteen children one of these days. HAMMOND'S NEW HOTEL. Tho opening of the Hotel Mee in Hammond a five-story structure ab solutely fire proof and equipped with every modern convenience at last guarantees the city something which it has long needed a first class hotel. The venture is a serious one and its building and equipment should be a matter of "pride for the business men and manufacturers of the city. The hostelry is deserving of their support and recommendation to their friends. Hammond can no longer be sneered at as the jumping off place. Travel ing men and visitors needn't dash off to Chicago now as soon as it gets dark because they can't find, a decent hotel and loyal Hammond people should stand ready to apprise them of the fact that ample hotel facilities are at their service. WHO IS'T? Lake county, Indiana, has come to the front with the meanest man a rich man who went to the poorhouse to disgrace his relatives. Lorain (O.) News. thepj: is something in this. Thousands of little Berlin girls and boys feel very sorry for themselves, and heartily wish that 1913 had never appeared on the scene. The reason is that Herr von Jagow, the1 Berlin Chief of Police, has issued an order prohibiting all children un der fourteen from going to moving picture shows. . . The picture theatre is not alto gether in favor with German official dom. Films are condemned as beln "unpatriotic" because they are for eign and increase the violent ad miration of the average German for things English and American. The reason that children are ex cluded from picture theatres Is that they are alleged to be too exciting and to have a bad influence. "How can children who have seen pictures of Indians fighting and cow boys riding recklessly go home to their exercise books and do thei evening study work?" asked a Ger man police official. "We want ou children to grow up into peaceful citizens, and not into cowboys." STATISTICS show that nearly billion telephone conversations were had in the IT. S. last year. No sta tics on question "how many time girls said lines were busy" however WELL FOLLOW SUIT. The commercial club of Gary has taken up the idea of a public market such as the Dispatch is agitating for Michigan City, and after a commit tee had inspected many easter markets, they reported enthnsiastical ly in favor of the proposition. To this end the town is now engaged in

raising ?1 50,0 00 for the purpose of Installing a modern market place. Let Michigan City watch the Gary ffort, and profiting by our neighbor's experience, follow in their footsteps. Michigan City Dispatch. MAN has asked youth who eloped with his wife to bevthe best man at his second marriage. What's the answer? We give it up. OVERCAPITALIZATION. Some sharp declines have been witness in stocks of companies that overcapitalized their assets to the ex tent of placing too large a value on the good will of the business. When there Is a heavy demand for money water-logged stocks are the first to suffer. Bankers refuse to accept them as securities in loan pegotiations and the owners are forced the unload. Values then shoot down. This is one of the penalties that small holders have to pay when thoy buy stocks of attractive appearances but of unsecure stability. CHAIRMAN of the Woman's Re formatory Committee of the Illinois Woman's Democratc League sayE, 'No woman can maintain her selfrespect unless she wears a corset. Time now for the corset makers to begin to advertise the brand she must wear. PRESS-MUZZLING LAW. There were doubtless some good features in the law amending the corrupt practices act that induced the legislature to pass it and Governor Ralston to sign It, but certainly the Zearing amendment seeking to muzzle newspapers was not one of them. This provision ' seeks to prohibit newspapers from a full and free di cussion of a man's character or fitness for office, or of the possible motives back of his acts; and it especially seeks to prohibit the use of cartoons whereby a man's peculiar characteris tics or foibles or the motives actuat ing him may be depicted. A momen't thought will show that this law was not passed in the inter ests of the people, nor for the promo tion of honesty and uprightness among candidates for public office. It places newspapers at the mercy of gangs of croojis and will prevent in many instance from giving the peo ple the information they should have White County Democrat. ' MRS. Pankhurst says English suffragettes are' abused. How can you abuse anyone who pours molasses in a mail box, who throws acid on statesmen, blows up property with bombs etc? ,

HEARD DT RUBE IT seems that sack cloth and penance will be followed by forty days of raincoats and goloshes. OLD-FASHIONED girl who wore red petticoats was neyer known to be a suffragette, to figure in the divorce courts or to dance the bear cat. WAY things go now days man has to have a flood-proof as well as a fire proof and wind-proof house if he wants to help the insurance companies to survive. JACOB B.IIS IS LOST IN FLOODED INDIANA." Headline. Indiana is to be sympathized with. It has enough troubles without any stray bull moosers being at large. THE TiV FAD. Wile telefone and telegraf wires are down we haven't so many news sub jects to be discust so we will turn our attension (guess we got it spelled rite) to this nu simplified speling that has alredy taken an extensiv hold on th country with the cubist art. It is carakteristik of the American epul to dout true knoledge and to follow new ways, which provokes us to lafter. However, bye and bye, the basebal season will sart, and the publik will then give themselva up to this gladsum sport. NOW that the Hon. Homer Carr and his Gary Tribune have flopped from the republican to the bull moose party and from that to the Tom Knotts" peevo democracy, we take back all that we said about the 'steemed Indianapolis Star being the champion flopp'er of In dianny. IT'S .a wise young fellow now days who makes his bride swear to love, honor, obey and not be a suffragette. "THE erovernment is close to the people." W. J. Bryan. But the pie counter is as far away as ever from the faithful. "PLEA FOR THE EDITORS." Cin cinnatl Enquirer headline. Other democrats out after the postmasterShlps will hardly plead fo them. however. AFTER all the Little Calumet Is a well-behaving river. While it Is on a little ear just now It is cutting no ca pers like some of its Onto cousins. INK factory wants to locate in this region. While we have a lot of blots on the community guesB wo can stand this one. PORTER COUSTV TRAGEDY. (Sedley correspondence to the Valpa raiso Vldette.) A young gentleman of our neigh borhood was sadly 'disappointed one night last week. He dressed in his very best, with the intention of cafl ing on his lady " friend. The dirt - roads were so bad and the mud so deep he decided he would have to " wear his rubber boots. He looked for . them where he left themt but no boots could be found. Alas, the gentleman could not go without his ,boots, so he stayed at home. We wonder who the Joke is on, the boots ortthe gentleman? "I HAVE known but one god politician and he is dead."

NO doubt some of the pessimists will blame the new democratic administra tion for the floods and cyclones. IF Noah" ana his ark were on liand at Dayton the old gent could pick up a little spare change aiding In the rescuework.

.YtOMA AND THE FRANCHISE. East Chicago, March 26. Editor Times: Dear Sir: Even If every woman In sue, Is that any logical reason why water, etc.. etc ad Infinitum? Homemaking is not an art which has its " dozens of other commodities employed as food which are below the standard of purity. Proper and adequate homemaking and rearing of children absolutely deman that women take part in a wide range of activities outside the home, so much of the work of the home having been transferred to the factories. Then, what have we to say of the women who are forced Into business, and of the unmarried women in states where tho female population predominates in Massachusetts alone there are thirty thousand more women than men. Their place Is not in the home, and never will be. They need the protection of the ballot. I refuse to believe that women like Kvery state in the union needs tho woman's vote. Less than one-fourth of them have It. Our beolved Frances E- Wlllard said: "If prayer and womanlb Influence are doing so much for God i by Indirect influence, how shall it be when that electric force is brought to bear through the battery of the ballotbox?" And Florence Nightingale, the heroine of our childhood, "It seems to me almost an axiom that every taxPver ought to have a voice In the ex pendlture of the money paid. Women are all taxpayers; some of us directly; most of us indirectly. KATHARINE SANTL ' President Equal Franchise League.
