crossing the river and exploring the
region. all efforts to find 1t proved un-

IF the women OF today continue to

Rome ruined that empire.
THE wife no longer contributes to
the family income by creating values.
With the increased standard OF elab-
crate dressing she is often fits chief

Modern industry has converted
men into earners and women into

Now we have the parasite woman.
The whole idea Of the women Of the

WAS A PRISONER OF MYSTERY
Authorities Believe He Is the Son Of
Hungarian count-carried Many
Classical Books.

Trenton, n. ia letter received in
German Valley, N. J., from Easton, Pa,
indicates that man who served two
years in the New Jersey state peniten-
tiary was none other than a son of
Count Czerny. Of Hungary. He never
revealed his name, not even so much
as to tell bis attorney who he was de-
Tending. When arrested he carried two
suit cases filed with books by Greek
and Roman authors.
John Doe," as the man was record
ed. was found about two years ago in
the belfry Of a school house In Ger
man Valley. The bank at Califon had
been robbed not long before. and be-
cause blowgun. soap and small guam
tity of nitro-glycerin were found in the
belfry, It was surmised the prisoner,
who refused to disclose his identity,
had cracked the bank When taken be-
fore a police justice In Morristown he
said he knew nothing about the blow
gun, soap and nitro. His only expla-
nation was he had been tramping from
Easton toward New York, and was d.
rected to the belfry by a fellow vaga-
bond.
He insisted another knight Of the
road had cracked the bank. Half q
dozen indictments, including one
charging bank burglary, we're handed
down. but John Doe" was acquitted on
every charge except that Of carrying c

Chicago Board Of Health Issues
Warning Bulletin.
Urges Vegetarian Diet and Gives
Pointers to Those Who Must
Have Meat--Much Nutrition
In Cheap steak.

Chicago.-"Don't make a junkshop
of your stomach" is the warning OF
the Chicago health department in the
weekly bulletin issued the other day.
The editor of the bulletin advocates
a vegetarian diet, but for those who
must have meat with their meals he
points cut way to get around the
high cost of living problem.
The cost of an article of food is no
true guide as to its real nutritive
value" he says. For example. glass
of pure milk with bread and butter, an
egg and a dish Of fruit, costing all
told rs cents. is much better meal
for the average person than a big sir
loin steak. which, with trimmings.
viii cost five times as much"
The trouble with many people is
they are willing to pay high prices for
food that, while it tickles or pleases
their palates. is of no more value than
that costing much less.
"A pound of protein or fat from a
tenderloin steak at 2s cents a pound
contains no more nutrition than the
same amount from shoulder or round
steak at less than half the expense.
Even In these days Of high prices rs
cents will buy meat enough, with vege-
tables added, to make savory and
nourishing stew for six persons; and
the entire cost. including bread. butter.
coffee and vegetables. need not ex
ceed 10 cents per person.
According to the Londan Lancet,
there is very little difference between
the nutritive value of wheat and rye.
One distinct advantage Of rye bread
is that It keeps fresh longer than
wheat bread. Rye bread also has dis
tinct laxative properties.
'.The effect Of deep breathing as a
mental stimulant is very pronounced.
Two minutes exercise Of deep breath
ing will remove all feelings of slug
gishness, provided, Of course. that the
exercise be taken In room with the
windows wide open. or. better still, In
the open air
Tho mouth is the seat Of many Of
the communicable diseases. For this
reason mouth sanitation is important.
A clean mouth and sound teeth are
big factors in promoting physical
health. Oral hygiene. as It is called.

nized branch Of medical school inspec-
