THE DOCTORS QUESTION.
Some Advice Against the Use of Harsh
Purgatiyes and Physics.

A doctors's first question when con-
suited by patient is, Are your bow
els regular?" He knows that SO per
cent of illness is attended with mac
tive bowels and torpid liver. This con-
dition poisons the system with waste
matter and causes accumulation of
gases which must be removed through
the bowels before health can be re-
stored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics
may be truly likened to dynamite
Through their harsh, irritating action
they force a passage through the bow
els, causing pain and damage to the
delicate intestinal structure which
weakens the whole system, and at best
only produces temporary relief. The
repeated use of such treatments
causes chronic irritation of the stom-
ach and bowels, dries and hardens
their tissues, deadens their nerves,
stiffens their muscles and generally
brings about an injurious habit which
sometimes has almost, if not fatal re-
suits.

Attitude of Farmers,

AS a contrast to the automobilists
point of view it is interesting to see
the farmers attitude of the present
day. The time was, and not so very
long ago, when the farmer and the
motorist were supposed to be at cross
purposes, and to large extent they
were. But that is now ancient his
tory. T. c. Laylin, master of the Ohio
State Grange, voiced very forcibly the
agriculturists' point of view by saying:
Although the question of road i'm
provement is of direct interest to the
residents of our towns and cities, it is
and always must be one of prime i'm
portance to the farmers. By far the
greater mileage of our roads is located
in the farming districts, and the chief
use of these roads is by the farmers

NEEDLESS ALARM OVER THE
COAL LANDS
Present Situation Looks as If Some
One Was Rurylng Talent In
Napkin

A writer in the New York Sun has re-
duced the entire Alaska coal land situa-
ton to nutshell and an easily under
stood form as follows:
The controversy concerning Secretary
Ballinger is over the legality of thirty
hthree claims aggregating $3.50 acres,
known as the Cunningham claims. which
1t is believed if patented would fall d.
rectly into the hands Of the so-called
Guggenheim interests that are building
railroads through the glaciers, opening
the copper mines and, generally speaking,
turning an ice-bound wilderness into a
richly productive territory. We are to-
day proud of the fact that this tract
which cost us originally $1,000 900 has
already returned to us 1920, 00OO,0O of
products, but do we stop to consider to
what extent capitalists like the Guggen-
helms have been instrumental in that re-
suit! 1t has now been admitted that the
Guggenheims would have, SO soon as it
could be legally done, half interest in
these thirty-three claims, furnishing In
return the money for their working as
well as railroad for the transportation
of the coal.
Here is really the main point. see
much commentator for CLAWS and Pin
chot and others for saving the vast
coal supply of $3.50 acres from falling
forever into the hands Of monopoly,
thus shutting out the people. do not
recall that any of the critics have taken
the pains to indicate what proposition
these claims bear to the total Alaskan
coal deposits. It is not related that there
are 5l7 other claims in this and $50 in
the Matanuska district awaiting devel-
opment by their owners, who are individ-
ual claimants, over 10000 acres in all
not one of whom can proceed until the
machinery and transportation are at
hand. The only capitalists out Of many
who have been approached who have
been willing to advance money, energy
and brains in daring venture to open up
vast source of industry and turn new
useless commodity into thousand chan
nels OF prosperity are those who are
placed upon the defensive and accused Of
being monopolistic, when as a matter of
fact their prospective interest is but one
half of small percentage Of the whole.
The rest are the people, approximately
10000 of them who are directly inter-
ested and several million indirectly. To
balk this interest which will furnish capt.
tai and transportation, the entire Boring
River district, with its potential 100000
600 tons of coal Of a gross value Of
5000, 100000, although the people pay
trust price for coal all over the country,
is conserved as carefully as the one talent
wrapped in napkin and buried in the
earth"

In the matter Of the imitation coHee
factories Of Europe DR.. Wiley i close
indeed to the mark for in 4 recent num-
Der Of the Bulletin Of the Commercial
Museum at Rio de Janeiro is to be found
some interesting figures upon this very
state OF affairs. The Bulletin says:
There are 1l6 factories in France
engaged in making imitation coffee, 72a
in Germany, 568 in Austro- Hungary, $50
in Italy and a few in other countries Of
which no official figures may be had.
Their product is made from figs, beans,
acorns, barley, burnt sugar and waste
cereals, and they turn out over billion
pounds year, employing more than 5O,-
600 workers."
That there was a similar industry In
the United States at least is known, for
two years ago the Federal authorities at
New York turned back an Italian ship
with cargo of dried olive stones con-
signed to Pittsburgh firm. and to be
used presumably in making coffee substi-
tute- The French Chamber of Deputies
Is about to pass law forbidding the
sale IN France of coffee save in the bean,
and green, and it is not impossible that
similar action will be taken here.

Theater For Deaf Mutes.

A "newer theater" that will over
shadow many others not alone in its
novelty, but in the idea of uplift, is
being developed at the Wisconsin
School For the Deaf In DelaTan, Wis,
under the personal direction Of Super
intendent e. w. Walker. In a short
time 1t Is expected that the unfortu-
mates without hearing or power of
speech will be able to enjoy the stage
as fully and with the same understand
ing as those who hear and speak. The
idea grows out Of performance given
at Delavan some weeks ago, when
Shakespeare's Tanning of the Shrew',
was presented in the sign language.
