How Flour Is "DOCfOred. "

A large part of the activity Of gov
eminent officials concerned in the pure
| foods crusade has been expanded upon
the exposure of adulteration of ice
cream and fiavoring extracts and other
Injuries, says the Evening Wisconsin.
Now there is an inquiry as to the prin-
cipal component of that food which is
''the staff of life.
Investigations are in progress in the
Bureau of Chemistry at Washington
with reference to the current process
of whitening -four by the use of nitric
acid fumes, in order to test as far as
possible the effect of such bleaching on
the health Of consumers.
The preliminary inquiries, it is stat
ed, have shown that the effect Of the
fumes is to change the natural oil of the
grain into chemical substance which
cannot be classed as food They also
produce important changes in the gIu-
tinous content of the flour, giving it a
less digestible quality The worst fea-
ture of the whitening process is that it
renders possible authorizations and tends
to conceal inferiority, inasmuch as CON
sumers are habitually guided to some
extent in their choice of -four by the
color of the product. This makes it
feasible tn incornorate cheaner 0ours
which have been artificialIy whitened
Does the change of color thus pro-
duced fall under the clauses of the pure
food law forbidding the coloring of food
products to conceal inferiority? If it
does there is no reason for the officials
to wait very long before putting a
short, sharp stop to business which
has villianous aspect,

Books raised the shade and looked
out. saying thin-I softly to hmseI.
A sodden landscape merged into lead
on skies and fine, driving rain yelled
but slightly the misery of the scene.
Across the road score Of ducks
waddled contentedly through the mud
DIV field to puddle that had formed
in n corner of the lor. but half dozen
bedraygled hens squawked dolefully as
they picked up the angleworms driven
TO the surface by the continued rain
and rushed back 10 shelter. The cows
in the side pasture huddled under the
drInping trees, and the dog trotted
ocross the road with his tail dragging
almost in the mud as he made for the
protection of the barn after being driv-
en- from the inviting kitchen door.
Brooks had come 10 Centerville for
purpose-a purpose that was not BEST

Teachers Are Scarce.

81 don't know of anything scarcer in
this state than teachers, said State
Supt. C. P. Cary. There may be a
shortage reaching into the hundreds, |
cannot just tell. do not know what to
attribute as cause unless it is the
great prosperity of the country.
"The greatest shortage is in the ru-
raj schools. These are largely taught by
high school graduates and | presume
that in many cases now the parents
have become sufficiently well-to-do so
that their daughters ard not compelled
to teach
'In large number Of the high
schools of the state and in the city

erintendents are spending a great deal
of time and money to secure capable
teachers to accept.

NH We're III for TAT for Japan.

Washington %. ca Herald.
Now that much of the silly war talk
about the relations of the United States
and Japan has died away, one may dis
cuss the question of Japanese immigra-
ton into this country without being ac-
cused Of adding fuel to the yellow flame.
We have a treaty with Japan which ad-
mits japanese TO this country. This cen
hardly be altered by putting the Japan
csc on the same basis as their neigh
boris, the Chinese, without giving gross
oifense. But it seems there should be
an easy way out Of the ditiiculty-a way
out that could hurt nobody's pride, and
at which Japan, be she ever so sensi-
tive. could not take otfense. This way
is TO grant to Japanese immigrants. of
whatever class, precisely the treatment
accorded to American immigrants in
Japan If we should model our treat
ment of the japanese in America on
the treatment Of Americans in Japan,
we should not allow Japanese scholars
to attend our schools at all. We should
prohibit japanese from owning real es-
tate IN this country; we should forbid
them purchasing certain securities. We
should not allow them to leave certain
of our ports without permits. and we
should make it difficult for these per-
mits to be granted If we charged 80
cents admission to our theaters, we
should raise the price on Japanese de
string to attend to 81, and the same
scale of advance would be carried out
in our hotels and in our shops. In short.

ergy bent upon taking back to town
Bess' promise, the dreary round of
paror life irritated him
Dickie Langdon. who had been the
life of the stormbound party, had re-
chrfstened Willow farm the Ark. with
an allusion to the animals that went
two by two. The landlord was Noah,
the colored servants Ham ana his
wife, and, with n sudden switch To
.'Pinafore,' Langdon has insisted that
Brooks was Dick Deadeye because of
his disposition. and Brooks had not be-
lied his nickname. 1t was not easy
even for patient man to sit quietly
and see The hoped for opportunity
pass, and Curtis Brooks was not
patient man.
All through those last weeks in Co
lumbia he could shut his eyes and see
the Big rock with Bess and himself
standing beside 1t Just rs they had
done the summer before. Now that he
was here he could not even see II from
the windows because of the curtain of
mist and rain. Tomorrow he would
have TO return to town, and then there
was another long trip to Caregena.
The frown was still on Brooks face
when he went down to breakfast.
Langdons jollity irritated him. and
when they went back to the parlor
after the meal he was gloomy and
|dispirited. Even Bess could not win
him out of himself, and finally he went
to his room to write some letters. he
announced.
Writing consisted In sitting before n
table with pen and ink ana paper near
at hand and staring at the drenchcd
landscape before him. Even the ducks
had sought cover. for now the rain
was coming down In sheets. He could
scarcely see across the yard, and. with
