AS the school election approach
cs we are reminded that a man
who has the interest of the COM
lnunity at heart must be chosen to
fill the position of school director
from which Harry Pettee is retir-
ing. We believe that w. M. Will
cy is the man, for he has done
more for this particular commun-
ity than any other. He is used to
handling big things and we feel
lie would be better able to keep
our schools in the front rank with
the progress that is in store for US
than anyone else. This position,
like that of mayor of our own town,
il not sought, but some must un-
t.ertake these public duties and
the best man is always the one
who cares least for it.

influential element in the empire, who
are endeavoring to exterminate Amer

The Salt Eaters.

knew of a lovely young woman
who was the greatest salt eater you
ever heard of. She was a bright
blonde, with an ivory white skin. All
her food had to be triple saited. At
thirty she dried up. At forty-five she
died of consumption. DR.. Tracy asser-
sverates that only small amounts of salt
are essential for, the we'll being Of
man. Bunge says that person using
a mixed diet requires only from 10 to
80 grains daily. Most people consume
excessive amounts, from $50 to 800
,-ains. Professor Vidal found that
vhen a patient who had nephritis
linaammation of the kidneys) took
20 grains of common salt daily for
several days he increased in weight,
due to dropsy. The dropsical effect
was caused by the salt. Vidal could
make dropsy appear and disappear at
will by increasing or withdrawing the
use of salt.
DR.. Tracy insists that we shall re-
frain from too-strenuous life, avoid
excesses in eating and drinking, be
moderate in all things and particularly
cut down our allowances of salt. ''The
reason why a person who has neph-
ritis should use little salt" he said,
SIS because the excessive use Of it pro-
duces dropsy and retards the activity
Of the sweat glands by increasing os-
motto pressure Of the blood" Thirty
grains Of salt a day will do for the av-
erage person Vidal, who is recog
nized European authority, recon-
monds the following daily diet in kid
ney diseases: Twelve ouces Of meat,
1874 pounds of potatoes. 8 ounces Of
sugar, % ounces Of butter, unsaltel
and 2-3 quarts of fruits.-New York
