Morrow of New the nation suffers the loss of a brilliant, dis- He served it faithfully at critical to its benefit and renown. His , when his mental powe; were at their zenith and when his future prom achievem-nts in importance the accomplishments of his past. Mr. Morrow had the distinction of attaining eminence in three fields of endeavor, any one of which exhau: Pt in rare instances, the capa: ity of the m richly endowed. He attained signal success as a lawyer, a financier and a diplomat Af 24 years' practice before the New York bar, he severed connection with one of the leading law firms to associate himsclf as a partner with the banking house of J. P. Morgan & Co. He remained with it 13 years—the period including the momentous days of the World War in which the firm took a more active monetary part than any other private institution. He retired from business to become Am- bassador and plenepotentiary to Mexico at time when relations between that nation and the United States were strained to the point of rupturing over the fiscal obligations and anti-alien land legislation of the Southern republic, and when border outrages by its lawless elements and the religious policies of its Government imperiled the safety and aroused the resentment of numerous residents of this country. Mr. shv surpassing best a Morrow's triumph composing ail differ- ences between Mexico and the United States and in restoring friendly feelings b:tween not only the governments but also the peoples of the two re- publics made of him a commanding figure. He was urged to solicit political’ honors. He was nom- inated by New Jersey Republicans for the United States Senate. Undoubtedly, he was the only member of the party in the commonwelth last year of sufficient strength to defeat th: Democratic aspirant. Great expectations were entertained of Mr. Mor- row in the Senate, where his diversity of talents and independsnce of character would have been afforded greater opportunity of promoting public welfare than they had hitherto enjoyed in any post or mission.

The inability of doctors to cure or plain the common colds has long sapped the 1 man’'s faith in the medical profession. A long step towards removing this reproach has been taken \)3’( Professor A. R. Dochez, of Columbia University, New York, and his collaborators. Their experiments, | which are described in the current number of the “Lancet,” show beyond doubt that the cold is caused by a virus small enough to pass through any filter | and to elude the power of any microscope, and that the ordinary bacteria which have shared the blame for colds in the past are, in fact, present only camp-followers of the true virus. Professor Dochez succzeded in cultivating the cold virus, and in pro-| ducing typical colds both in chimpanzees and in| human beings with it. To have discovered the cul- prit is not, of course, the same thing as to have outwitted him. But it is the indispensable first step. If the cold virus can be isolated and cul- tivated, its habits can be studi and methods evolved either of attacking the virus itself or of counteracting its evil effects. That does not mean that 4ve can look forward to the discovery of some magical cure which we have only to swallow or sniff to bs free of colds forever. Our strongest weapon against colds will continue to be, as against most infectious disease, to take reasonable precau- tions against distributing them. If infectious persons could isolate themselves for the first few days of their colds we should make good progress towards the control of colds, even without knowing just what the cause of colds may be. Now that Professor Dochez has explored the c: to devise m specific and effectual precautions. But it will still rest with us snufflers and sneezers to carry them out. even to e Hard times didn’t seem so hard to the old-timers.—(Boston Transcript.) hardened = NATURE GIVES THIS COAL NUT now.
