MOTORING IMPROVES THE
BLOOD

DR.. Monneyrat and DIR. Legendre,
French physicians. have made a study
of the effect of motoring on the blood
and find that it is a most healthful
exercise. DIR. I-eeendre cites a few
cases in which the corpuscles Of
the blood have been counted
before and after an automobile jour
ney of some duration. In one case a
patient had 100000 red corpuscles
per cubic centimenter of blood before
he started on two weeks trip. At
the end of that time his blood con-
tained 100000 red corpuseles to the
cubic centimeter In other words, an
anemic man had been made normal
DIR. Monneyrat cites instances of
men whose blood had been enriched
to above the normal by automobile
Journeys the number of red corpus
cles having sometimes increased to as
high as 100000 per cubic centimeter
What is true of the number of cor
puscles is also true of their strength.
The most important constituent of the
red corpuscles is hemoglobin. pa
tient of DR.. Monneyrats who had only
so per cent. of the normal quantity of
hemoglobin in his blood was sent on
a months journey in a motor car;
after it, his blood contained IS per
cent. of the normal quantity of hemo-
globin. In the case of another more
serious case of anemia, in which there
was only 10 per cent of the normal
amount of hemoglobin, three months
of motoring raised the quantity to rs
per cent.
These benefits to the blood are pro-
duced by the rush of pure air against
the body and into the lungs, which it
stimulates to deeper breathing. The
open-air travel also promotes quiet
ness and sleep in nervous patients.

when the cry is back to the farm"
and young men are being encouraged
to invest their lives in the rural de
velopment of New England, it Is worth
while to mark one whose entire life
of 81 years was spent on the farm
which his fathers for three generations
back had bequeathed him, and who
found in the career OF a farmer ample
opportunity for personal, intellectual
and moral growth and for the service
of the community and the state.

IT was not simply because they had
lost one who had served them ably
and faithfully as selectman, assessor

was an even more personal sorrow

highway, invited the wayfarer to stop

NO PUBLIC SYMPATHY WITH
STRIKE

The great express strike at New
York has not ELECTED much sympathy
from the public for the corporations,
for the demands of the men are rea-
sonable and the conduct of the big
dividend making concerns most un-
just. In these times the men are ask
ing that their working day be limited
to eleven hours: and the pay of all
men advanced from s45 month to $50
a month. and a corresponding advance
of 50 a month to all assistants who
We're getting less than $75 a month.
The companies replied in contention
that their volume of business made it
difficult if not impossible for them to
reduce the working day; and that with
present earnings as they were it was
impossible for them to increase the
wages OF the men. The men soon
found that with no orga MIA ton be-
hind them they were in no position to
urge their demands with any degree of
force, so the helpers and assistants
proceeded to Join the union OF team
sters in order that that organization
might champion their cause.
The current issue of the New York
Independent states the case right when
it says:
"The strike offers another point of
view than that of difference between
employers and employees These are
express companies against which the
strike is waged. Now the express
companies are the banded enemies of
the people. Again and again our post
masters general have recommended to
congress that they give the people the
parcels post, such as every nation in
Europe possesses, and such a privilege
as the United States itself gives to
foreigners abroad. A package weigh
ing eleven pounds a, German or Italian
can have sent him from America at
cheap postal rates, for that is an in
terna tional privilege; but an American
husband cannot send such d package
to his wife by mail from New York to
Philadelphia. The limit is four pounds.
and the rate sixteen cents pound.
1t costs less by far to send a packa ge
to the end of Europe than from Boston
to Salem. We have been told that the
reason Tor not giving our people the
same advantage that other countries
have Is that the department stores
would rob the country stores of their
trade, But the country stores have no
organization that has made any such
complaint They have been made a
stalking horse by the express compa-
mics, which are the principal organiza-
tons that have a great interest to de
feat the people"
