DAME NATURE HINTS
When the Food Is Not Suited.

When Nature gives her signal that
something is wrong 1t is generally
with the food. The old Dame is al
ways faithful and n should act at
once.
To put OF the change is to risk that
which may be i~rreparable. An Arizona
man says:
"For years could not safely eat any
breakfast. / tried various kinds OF
breakfast food, but they were all soft.
starchy messes which gave me dis
tressing headaches. l drank strong
coffee, too, which appeared to benefit
me al the time, but added to the head

were no better, for ] found the toast
very constipating.
"a friend persuaded me to quit the
old coffee and the starchy breakfast
foods, and use Postum and Grape-Nuts
instead. / shall never regret taking

REAL PROSPERITY.
Sioux Falls Press:

Sioux Falls Press:
There are many examples Of west-
ern cities which have sacrificed ev-
erythiAg to rapid material pro-
gress. The public spirit of such
cities has been all in the direction
Of outstripping every rival In
growth, and later there has been.
a reaction from the boom whjsh
brought disaster and ruin to many.
Moreover, it has been generally con-
coded that the ultimate material
progress of such cities was hindered
rather than helped by the so-cal!ed
boom; that the cash and concessions
given away might have been kept IN
the hands Of the people with profit
to all.
Moral questions also como into
conflict with the rush for material
progress. A wide-open town Is
sometimes considered good for bus
mess and stimulating to the growth
OF the city. Yet II this sort 81
grown makes q community ruled BY
the forces Of evil, the cleaning up
process must be adopted some time,
and the city will eventually suffer
materially by its compromise with
unhealthy conditions merely for tAs
sake of growing faster.
The foundations of our nation
were not laid in the sands of mere
material progress. If that had bee.
all The early patriots desired, they
would have continued to be colonies
merely and benefited by the influx
of capital from Europe. They SUI
fered temporary privation, poverty
and tn eravages Of war to make a
country glorious for future ner
tions. Eventually greater material
progress was made than could have
ever been effected under colonial
conditions.
This question must be settled and
settled right. The compromise Of
Tered permits the DEVELOPMENT of tho
resources Of the country by privat.
capital without an entire surrender
OF the rights Of the future geners-
lions. Under such a system as
much material progress will be made
a is possible, without j%eopardizlns
the whole future Of the nation.

12,08U CONSERVATIVES IN

of Consumption in the following bui-
letin issued recently:
From several investigations that
have been made, it is estimated that
on an average about fifteen per cent
IT the prison population of the couu
try is afflicted with tuberculosis. On
this basis. out of $4,000 prisoners
housed in the penal institutions of
continental United States at n Civ
en- time, not less than $4,000 are in
fected with this disease. If the Phil
;lnpplne islands and other insula~
possessions were taken into consid-
GRAFTON the number would be much
larger. Some of the prisons OF
Pennsylvania, Kansas and Ohio show
such shocking conditions with refer
ence 10 tuberculosis that many war
dens admit that these. places OF d,-
tentloa are deathtraps. Similar
conditions could be found in almost
every state, and in the majority OF
cases the only sure remedy is the de-
struct-en Of old buildings and the
erection Of new ones.
Only twenty-one prisons in fifteen
states and territories have provided
special places for the treatment OF
their tuberculosis prisoners. These
institutions accommodate, however,
