Owing to incomplete reports and mis- leading headlines in a number of Phila- delphia papers, the statement has been spread broadcast that the Pennsylvania Medical Society, at its recent convention in York, denounced the text-books on physi- ology in use in the schools and condemned the methods of the Woman’s Christain Temperance Union. The facts of the case are as follows: A few years ago a committee of five was appointed by the Pennsylvania Medical Society to examine school text-books on physiology. This committee, of which Dr. L. J. Lantenbach, of Philadelphia, was chairman, published a series of articles in the ‘‘Pennsylvania Medical Journal,’’ re- viewing 54 books onphysiology and hygiene, and pointing out what it considered erron- eous teaching. Oar organization answer- ed in detail all the criticisms on the text- books endorsed by the W. C. T. U., and published criticisms and answers in a pamphlet entitled ‘Science the Arbiter.” Copies of this pamphlet were sent last spring to 9,000 Pennsylvania physicians. The text-book committee presented a re- port to the recent convention, which severely criticized the books in general use, especially those indorsed by the W. C. T. U., and condemned the methods of our organization. This report met with much opposition, and when it came up for action in the executive council it was laid on the table by the decisive vote of 35 to 5. The text-book committee was discontinued because of its offensive allusions to the W. C. T. U., and a new committee of five ap- pointed in its stead to continue the work of examining text-books. This action of the Pennsylvania Medical Society is very much appreciated by the Woman's Christian Temperance Union. Opponents of scientific temperance in- plan of work outlined by the W. C. T. U. is not followed. Our organization asks that during nine school years not less than thirty lessons a year of twenty minutes each shall be given on physiology and hy- giene, and that one-fifth of this time shall be devoted to teaching the advantages of abstaining from alcohol, tobacco and narcot- ics. Surely two hours of each schoo! year is not too much time to give to a subject of so much importance to health and morals. The one desire of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union is that the children of to-day, who will soon be the citizens, and therefore the rulers, of our country, shall be thoroughly equipped for the duties of citizenship. How Oxen are Shod. Description of a Custom Common in the Moun- tain. In Texas there are oxen used to some extent, but, as the roads of Texas are com- paratively soft, there is no necessity of hav- ing them shod. [Possibly some Texas owner would ridicule the idea of shod oxen, yet there is a sale for shoes, or ‘‘plates’’ as they are called, which is no inconsiderable item in the annual sales of hard ware houses having dealings with the mountain people. Mountain roads are usually creek beds, selected for the reason that they are nearer level than the sur- rounding, abutting or overhanging country Hence, to be available for use, mountain oxen must be shod. The process is as once interesting, in- structive and dangerous. First, the ox is roped about either his fore or hind legs, then the remaining pair of legs are roped and the loose end of the rope pulled through the opposite loop. The act pulls the feet of the ox into a bunch, and he falls to the ground, a bellowing, squirming, thrashing mountain of exceedingly lively beef. When he has subsided to some extent the ‘‘shoers’’ proceed to drive a couple of stakes notched at the top at either end of the prostrate animal. Previously they have selected as the proper spot to throw him a convenient stump with exposed roots. Under one of these roots is thrust a rail or pole, and a couple of mountain men git on the pole, resting it across the neck of the animal. Others elevate the loops binding his hoofs to the notches of the stakes,and with the feet in the air—the order of things reversed, as it were—the brute is shod, very much as a horse might be. One of the plates is fitted and nailed on either side of the cloven hoof, and the process of shaping the plate is omitted. Occasionally the ox will thrash about and yank a stake out, crack- ing a mountain skull with it. Sometimes he will rise in his anger and deposit his weight upon one who seeks to shoe him; sometimes he will dig a hole in the moun- tain side with his horn, but at last science overcomes brute strength, and the shoeing is complete. When the ox is permitted to rise he is, to all appearance; and to all effects, as drunk as if he had been persuaded to imbibe a gallon of moonshine whiskey. He is a shamed and stricken ox, and the glory of his strength has passed from him, as did that of Samson, when the olippers of Delilah rendered his head as a billiard ball. This sickness lasts for some days, but it is never fatal. It is simply another little penalty the patient ox endures for being what he is. m———— —— commas SEE RE Re Y M. FAUBLE @& SON.

One of the most delightful social events of the season took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Diller Buck, near Warriors-mark, last Thursday, October 1st, at noon. If was the marriage of their daughter, Miss Della Buck, to Lloyd E. Confer, of Pitts- burg. A few minutes before the hour an- nounced for the wedding Rev. E. M. Aller, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, took his position on the large porch in front of the house, while the invited guests, numbering over 125, occupied the beaunti- fal lawn surrounding the home. Promptly at 12 o’clock the bridal party appeared on the porch where the ceremony was perform- ed. Miss Eva Ebbs, of Loveville, presided at the organ and rendered the wedding march with beautiful effect. After congratulations had been extended to the happy couple the guests were usher- ed into the large dining room where a sumptuous dinner was served. The women of Warriorsmark valley are known far and near as good cooks, and Mrs. Buck, under whose supervision this dinner was prepared, has contributed her full share to- ward keeping up this enviable reputation. The presents were numerous and usefal. After their wedding trip Mr. and Mrs. Con- fer will locate in Piitsburg.— Altoona Tri- une. An Errand to Do. Asked to Stop in Texas on His Way from Chicago to New York. One brother is a rich merchant in the Straits Settlement on the Malay Peninsula. The other brother was, until a few weeks ago, the cook in a cheap restaurant on South Clark street. The merchant sent to the cook a draft for sufficient money to pay his expenses out to Asia, and the cook gave up his job and has started for his brother’s home. The interesting thing about the whole in- cident is the letter, written by the wealthy merchant, which accompanied the draft. In the first place the draft was made payable in New York. *I send you the money in a draft pay- able in New York,’ wrote the brother from far-off Asia. ‘‘You can go over and get it cashed there. On the way I wish you would stop at Texas and see brother Thomas. I haven’t heard from him for two years now, aud I'd like to know how he’s getting along.”’ BrOKE INTO His HoUSE.—S.
