THE DIFFERENCE fHE DIFFERENCE by New York and Montreal of Dr. Fried- The difference in treatment by New York and Montreal of Dr. Fried ann, claimant of a cure for tuberculosis, is very noticeable. - Hi Club -in hand, our American medical societies \ greeted, Priedmann and compelled him to bore a hole through their red tape for his • demonstrations. No American doctor had come 'anywhere near a cure for tuberculosis; hence,; in their opinion, Friedmann must be a fraud. Friedmann hadn't joined any American > Medical [association hence, he must be welcomed with a degree of suspicion that amounted to rank insult. : t-^^B;' \w& But the treatment accorded Friedmann by; the Canadian medics was the reverse. The Royal Edward institute threw open its doors and enabled Fried mann to make a half-hundred demonstrations^ first thing. Their idea was that 4^?*, there is the slightest chance; that this German doctor has a cure for/ the dread scourge, ethics and formalities and jealousies must not for a minute de -[lay development of that chance. . : , )-, The Canadians have treated Dr. Friedmann as a possible benefactor of mankind. ' : i Those New Yorkers have treated him as a lot of Congo savages would treat a white man who offered them quinine for their fevers. It makes no difference whether Dr. ; Friedinann has or has not discovered all that he claims, the attitude of the New York County Medical society, especially, has been that of a dog in the manger, a mighty small and yellow dog, at that. SOMETHING MORE THAN THE DIRT |R Hartford Times bewails the abandonment of New England farms and the trend toward the west and declares that "a reinvigorated" Connecticut £' farm may be as good as one in the west. V^'l * ; Your editor of reactionary New England never sees any farther than the dirt Make Connecticut dirt profitable and her youth will not abandon it for lowa, or Oregon, or California dirt, is his notion. But for the New England youth there are in the great west. other things than productive dirt. There are such ■r things as freedom from mttihess, social and vocation equality, and . abundant opportunity. If the sons of .New England farmers were just agri cultural engines, just content to divide up the old place when father dies and go on digging dirt until the cows come home for the last time, as did their fathers, the sad increase in the number of: abandoned New England farms might be stopped. But, so long as youth and enterprise protest against sod der-ness and reaction, the cry of the great west will be heard and men who want to grow as men will heed it, no matter how reinvigorated the soil of New England. . .. '-.'". IT'S IMPORTED L V "We frequently buy what has been imported simply because it has been imported," says a down east editor. <r. T f ':, I '-'.. This is true, and it has something to do with the high cost of living. Take, for instance, such things as wines, raisins, olives, prunes, fancy sausages and fancier millinery. . No foreign country produces these things in superiority to the American product, and yet when milady, or Mr. Man, gives a " spread " only ; the things with the foreign label will do. This is practically true, too, of the whole list of canned and preserved stuffs. ;•-* :i The handsomest costumes and most lovely millinery are made right here in America. They sell at lower prices and contain as good material, but tho imported hat or dress willrget first choice simply because it is imported. The idea seems to be that the thing is more stunning, more valuable because it comes from a long distance and, hence, bears a price that your neighbor can not afford. This sort of conceit, or pride isn't confined to our women. Our |; men carry a load of it of their own.
