The most pitiful thing in the world to see Is a sick child. No adult can look upon suffering Infancy without the un- comfortable feeling that somehow Na- ture hasn’'t done her duty, that the lit- tle one In the grip of disease is bei cheated out of robust health and happi- | ness for no reason whatever. And when dangerous drugs are poured down the little throat, or the Kknife slices through the flesh and the blood spurts, even the strongest man says & few things to him- eelf about such barbarous means of deal- ing with sickness and suffering. | NATURE IS NOT TO BLAME—THE | SPINE 1S! Thanks to scientific investigation, those | methods are now out of date. Before the cause of sickness, deformity and pain had been round, ANY method that promised re- | lief was better than none at all. But since the underlying cause of every malady of | childhood has been definitely, scientifically | and accurately located, no one who unde: stands the factors involved would tolerate wither drugs or operations.

Evans as due to the effectiveness of the appeal of | con- Mrs. Lloyd George and the tinued ascendancy of the premier in the mind of his countrymen. “To the premier this message of confidence from the people of his own land comes as no ordinary encouragement’ says the Observer. Only the Dispatch (the Northcliffe paper) views the Cardigan election as a sign of weakening by the prem- fer’'s followers. “If the prime min- ister’'s supporters care to claim the Cardigan election as a triumph for the coalition Liberals they are eas- ily pleased,” it says. The newspaqper describes the elee- tion as a vote of confidence in the preinier, who was represented by an energetic wife, but says that despite her personality, ' the glamor of her husband’s name and the magic touch of the Welsh tongue, he could not prevent 10,50¢ Welshmen, whem presumably were Coalitionists in 1919, from swinging to the op- position.

JUDGMENT FOR ECKERT Cows Sold Against Advice of Local Veterinarian Basis for Suit in_ City Court at Hartford. ° Judgment for the plaintiff to recover damages to the amount of $275 is di- rected in a finding of Judge E. B. Dickenson in the Hartford city court in the case of Fred Eckert vs. Walter Miller, both of Newingfion. The case arose over the sale of two tubercular cows by Miller to Eckert, one of which died subsequently while the other was condemned by the state health authori- ties and killed. Eckert through Law- yver J. G. Woods of this city brought suit alleging fraud and false warranty. The decision was given on the latter claim. One of the material witnesses in the case was Dr. B. D. Radcliffe, milk, meat and food inspector of the local health department. He informed the defendant that the cows were tubercu- lar and advised against their sale. Con- trary to his requests, the sales were made and the tuberculosis developed. Judge Dickenson in his finding explains that the defendant was apparently bet- ter acquainted with stock than the plaintiff; that the plaintiff had depena- ed upon the defendant’s word as to the condition of the cows and that the de- fendant had been informed by Dr. Radcliffe that the animals should not be sold, therefore he had been guilty of false warranty.
