MAKING a VACATION PAY

The best investment that many
men make during the year is repre-
sented at the expense of their vaca-
ton. Theey are paying out money and
earning nothing, but they are putting
themselves in suberb condition for
great business on their return. They
are overhauling their physical and
mental machinery, renewing restor-
ing, lubricating. polishing the deli
cate workings and putting them in a
condition to run smoothly and noite-
lessly for the balance of the year.
There is no Investment which pays
such great dividends as keeping ones
physical condition up to the highest
standard-upon this hangs all our
success and happiness.
The right kind of a vacation null
tipites the pawer Of effectiveness OF
all the faculties; It increases caurage
confidence, self-respect; in fact every
success and happiness faculty Could
there be a better investment -(Ori-
son SWEET Warden in Success Mag
azine.)

YOUNG MEN OF CHARACTER
ARE ENTERING NAVY

Washington.-An excellent class of
men is being recruited for the United
States navy, enthusiastically declared
Captain Henry A. Wiley, in charge of
the enlisting personnel, who has Just
returned from an inspection tour of
recruiting stations and training
schools that extended across the con-
tinent. 1t is plainly evident, said Cap
tain Wiley today, that the young men
who are entering the navy are of high
character, with an intense patriotic
interest in the service
Many young men of high school ed
ucation who had begun an appren-
ticeship in some trade have recently
entered the navy, he said, some be-
cause of a particular liking for the
sea and others because of the oppor-
tun'ty offered to learn their desired
trade, as the navy today employs
members of nearly every craft.
These encouraging results, Captain
Wiley continued, are being accom-
plished by no attempt to entlce young
men into the navy, but by systematic
plan of publicity. All recruits, he
added, are shown the disadvantages of
the service before they sign their en-
listments.
Within three months or when the
harvest season is over, Captain Wiley
believes the navy will have been re-
cruited to its full strength with a wait
ing list Of applicants. It's present
strength is 47,727 enlisted men out
of the authorized number of S4,100.

GOVERNMENT AFTER
FRAUDULENT ADVERTISER
Warns Public Against People Offer
ing Salaries for Writing Letters.

Washington. The postoffice de-
partment has just discovered what it
claims is one of the neatest schemes
for obtaining other peoples hard
earned cash, formulated in years. The
department has been watching the
development of the plan for some
time and the recent numerous COM
plants from alleged victims of the
originator of the scheme has had the
effect of forcing the issuance of a
fraud order against the companies
concerned and the indictment of the
proprietor of the two offending or
ganizations.
According to the statements of the
post office detectives in charge of
the investigation, the ingenious orig
inator of the scheme had the follow
ing advertisement inserted in daily
papers throughout the country:
Young man wanted to copy letters
at home; SIS weekly made by easy.
congenial work, Send 10 cents as ev-
idence of good faith to -
Those who were desirous of increas-
ing their weekly stipend by the addi-
ton of SIS or more-for the amounts
specified varied in the different ad-
vertisements-sent the required am
cunts. In return they received a let
ter saying that the company was
ANXIOUS 20 get letters, to be used as
tetimonials, written on a snecial
typewriter which he was placing on
the market. On the receipt of SO the
proprietor of the film flam game
would send a little "novelry" type
writer which the postoffice detectives
claim can be bought at retail for 9S
cents and upon which it is impossible
to write 100 letters, much less the l.
900 for which the company" was
willing TO pay $40.
The originator of the plan is alleg-
ed to have admitted that he bought
the machines for less than a dollar
and that he sold over a hundred OF
them in three months through this
| advertisement.

st. Petersburg The Russian news

about the United states because of
the efforts made by strong American
business interests to obtain a foothold
in Manchuria. The American Har-
vester trust, which already owns a
factory employing 1000 men in Rus

The criticism arises out of a plan

Der of land plots in Manchuria of
from 5000 to $4,000 acres each should
be set apart by the Chinese govern

Both the japanese and the Rus

Moved Over to Wyoming to Big
Horn Mountains.
Sheridan, Wyo.-Ten thousand head
Of wild elk trekking across the state
of Wyoming, guarded and guided by
United States cavalry and many cow
boys, ranchmen and sheepherders, is
the unique spectacle which will be
seen some time bewteen now and
winter, If the plans of the state Of
ficials who have the project IN
charge, are carried out
The elk are at present in the Jack
son Hole country. in the extreme
western part of the state. 1t Is the
intention of the officials to remove
them to the Big Horn mounains, just
west of Sheridan, and in the extreme
northern portion OF the state.
1t is estimated that fully 10 900
head of elk winter every year in the
Hole and they simply eat the ranch
| men out of house and home.
The elk herd has finally become so
great a menace that the entire west
| ern portion of the state took up arms
in an effort to save the ranches and
| farms as we'll as the sheep and cattle.
The national government at the last
session of congress, appropriated $780,
900 for the care and preservation of
the elk in Wyoming.
| In Northern Wyoming are the Bis

others, total force of 1000 mounted

SUSPEND CHILD IN AIR
TO CURE PARALYSIS
Rare Treatment OF Affected Girl At
tracts Attention i'm London

London.-A very rare type of in
fantile paralysis in a girl patient at
the hospital for sick children, Great
ormond street, w. c., is now being
subjected to an equally unusual type
of treatment.
The disease, instead of being con-
lined, as is usual, to the limbs, attack
ed chiefly the muscles, along the spi-
nal column on one side, the result be-
ing pronounced and permanent lat
eral bowing Of the back.
To straighten out this deformity,
the patent. a girl of nine has been
Tor over six weeks suspended from
an overhead framework of leather
loops under the armpits and under the
trunk and legs falling in this way on
the unsupported back, is gradually
and apparently very uncomfortable
pulling the spine back into its normal
straight position.
The little patient Is very cheerful
and talkative, despite her strained
and apparently verp uncomfortable
position,
II can eat and sleep alright this
way" she said, "and l feel much
stronger than when came 10 the
hospital"
Every afternoon the suspension
harness is removed and the weaken
ed muscles are thoroughly massaged
1t is expected that another month
of the suspension treatment will have
brought the deformed spine suffl
| clently into line to allow of the fit
ting of a leather-and-meta jacket
which will have to be worn for som,
| months.
