During the twelve months ending
IN June there we're four hundred and
forty-four women in the English bank
ruptcy courts. Failures among mar
ried women showed a marked increase
during the year, as against a material
decrease In the failures among spin
sters and widows, and commentator
accounts for 1t by suggesting that a
woman attempts too much when she
undertakes to run" both business
and family. The explanation seems
adequate. Successfully to manage the
anairs of a household calls for as
much OF commercial acuteness as the
average human being is able to COM
mand.

A reading British medical organ
warns the young men in the secondar,
schools and colleges to avoid medicine
as career. In spite of all recent
restrictions and efforts to raise the
standard Of admissions to medical
schools, In spite of long courses and
additional training In hospitals, the
profession is so "congested' that the
average practitioner finds 1t hard to
make a decent living. The spread OF
mental healing and the improved sani-
tary conditions of our cities and towns
are among the causes of the decline
OF medical incomes In short. young
men are urged to shun medicine un-
less they are devoted to the science
Oh health, take an Intellectual and hui
manitarian interest in 1t and expect
10 practice at sacrifice. 1t may be
observed In passing that there is
scarcely profession which does not
complain Of oversupply of practition-
ers and decreasing demand for their
services or falling returns. 1t would
not be 2 bad thing II thousands OF
young men intended" for law. medi-
cine, engineering, teaching were in
duced to take up farming and garden
Ing and see what brains, education. in
dustry and efficiency can do by way
of increasing the yield of land. But
this aspect aside, there Is no real
ground for pessimism as to the future
OF the medical profession. The old
order changeth, but the new situation
creates new opportunities and new
sources OF usefulness and income.
Harvard has Just established a de-
partment Of preventive medicine and
hygiene, and here is its prospectus:
1t has for It's field of work the laws
or health In relation to the preven-
ton of the occurrence and the limita
ton OF the spread of disease; it will
consider the laws of the town, the
state and the country in their bearing
on the health Of the community, and
the natural history of disease in rela-
tion to the individual and the COM
munity; 1t will train men for the in
vestigation of these problems, and
men to fill various offices in boards
OF public health and other public
health work; 1t will meet the growing
need for men to direct the people in
ways of rational healthy life" 1t is
certain that other colleges will follow
this example of Harvard. The health
departments and the public school sys-
tens will enlist more and more phy
slclans In their services. More and
more Will be done nationally and To-
cally by public, semi-public and pri-
vate agencies-like insurance COM
panies-for the promotion of health
and the prevention of disease and
death. Research will also be extended
and stimulated, for such problems as
cancer, consumption, pellagra and so
on are pressing for solution. The ills
human flesh is heir to are still MANY
and terrible, and there Is plenty of
work for trained and earnest physi-
clans. The period of transition brings
hardships to many, but there is no
occasion for anxiety as to the future

the test, and is growing in public favor with each sue
ceeding month and year. Why should it not? When
it is known to be.the product Of the select Spring wheat
of the Jim River Valley, manufactured in q mill equip
ped with the most approved modern machinery, and
under the watchful eye of q man at the helm who has
made the flour process a life study.
From the picturesque hills of his native town, when a
boy he was accustomed to the whirl of the mill stones
and to watch the process of -four making. Crude as
it was in those days, it became to him a fascination,
which materialized in the Master mind as we behold
him today.
In the Eyes Of a Hungry Boy, what to him has more
beauty and attraction than "A Loaf Of Mothers
Bread?" Especially so if made from Snow White
Flour.
These are the days when Purity is required in food
stufs, as we'll as in Craftsmanship and Character
building. There is nothing that defles that enters into
Snow White Flour. It will stand the Pure Food Law
You get freshness as we'll as Nutrition out of Snow

berry of the Jim River Valley Spring wheat, thus Civ
ing to the loaf a newness and sweetness not found in
bread baked from what is known as Fall or Winter
wheat flour.

And you will find Cleanliness every where in evidence.
You are Invited to Try a Bag of this Flour.
Bread baked from Snow White you will fd retains Its
flavor and freshness throughout the week in which til

of authorizations. Baked into bread or biscuits It's
light, sweet and palatable, beyond the makeup of the
average run of most brands of -four.
We have nothing to detraCt from Gold Medal
but we place Snow White before you, on the same level
We say to all: If dissatisfied with Gold Medal try a
sack of Snow White, which you will find TRUE TO NAME,
without having undergone the bleaching process which
is no longer allowed by law.
Take your choice as between Snow White and de1 or

REMEMBER that bread made from Snow White will
retain its freshness for a full week, and at all times
you will find it wholesome, nutritious and sweet.
