BAKERS PROMISE
TO LABEL
BREAD

After a conference with Mayor
Seymour and State Inspector of
Weights and Measures A. w.
Rinehart Wednesday afternoon
Tacoma bakers announced they
would obey the new state law and
either put 16 ounces In a five
cent loaf of bread or stamp what
the bread does weigh.
The state inspector made IL
plain the law must be adhered 10
but showed a liberal spirit and
no desire to be technical or quib-
BILE over one loaf of bread.
Local bakers have been evad-
ing the law by stamping their
bread "Over ounces" So the
BAKERS agreed to stamp the cor
rect weight, which is generally IL
to 13 ounces.
The bakers insisted that no one
under present conditions OF ma
teriaI and labor can sell 10
ounces OF bread for five cents.

Never, l suppose, has a party
combined so much of intellection
power with physical fitness, and
the result was apparent ia the
high level of mutual appreciation,
of intelligent cooperation and
wise enthusiasm.
After penning this remarkable
tribute to the men Captain Scott
describes the daily life in the
hut during the long months OF
the winter night.
But one expedition of any
length was made during the WIN
ter-night. Wilson, Bowers and
Cherry-Garrard made a five
weeks trip to the Emperor PEN
gum rookery at Cap Crosier for
the purpose of observing the PEN
gums during the breeding season.
Most of this journey was made
while the temperatures were as
low as 70 degrees below zero and
frightful billiards. were encount-
cred.
November saw the beginning of
the journey to the SQUIRT begun!
The outward course from the
Barrier was divided into three
stages-424 miles over the Bar
rier, 1875 miles up the glacier,
rising 5000 feet, and 353 miles

very unequal speed. We shall
start in three parties-the very
slow ponies, the medium paced
and the filters. We have decided
to begin night-marching and shall
get away after supper, I hope"
And then the second installment
OF the diary that was written on
a march to death closes with
this:
at Is a SWELTERING day.
The air is breathless, the glare in
tense. One loses complete sight
of the fact that the temperature
is low (22 degrees below zero)-
ones mind seeks comparison in
hot sunlit streets and scorching
pavements; yet, six hours ago my
thumb was frostbitten!"

NEW YORK, July "a. - The
second section of that immortal
! diary left behind in it's little seal
ed tube by Capt. Robert F. Scott
on the fatal dash to the south
pole, is given to the world today
for the first time, in the August
issue OF Everybody's Magazine.
1t is one of the most thrilling
documents ever to come under
the eye of man, telling, as 1t does,
from beyond the grave, of the ex-
petitions long, long night-wait
In winter quarters, of the final
dawn of the Antarctic day and
then-of that fatal start for the
great pole itself!
The whole party, as the story
"Opens, is at Cape Evans. They
arrived there April 13 and the
next day-Good Friday - Scott
notes in his diary as Peaceful
Day." The sun, he tells, makes
its last appearance on st. Georges
day.
The dark days of marking time
and waiting-waiting for the light
that would enable them to go
1orrn on' tinoir-grea quest--were
not spent in idleness. Inspection
OF all the trappings and instru-
ments, practice at setting up
camps and shelters, and the con-
tinuance of scientific observations
and Investigations occupied them.
"I-~ am very much Impressed
with the extraordinary and gem
eral cordially of the relations
which exist amongst our people, ;"
he writes at another time. 81 do

 This worldwide condition has re- suited In credit strirgency which is founding down the values of stocks and hampertng legitimate business ac- comnodation. The bear lrIve n the New York stock market yesterday, which sent prices tumbIing to new low levels of the year, began in London in the morning before New York was up. Paris and Berlin also felt the de- pression. In New York no doubt, the menacing attitude of the governme toward the old tobacco and Standard oil trusts and the attorney generals s new suggestion for a graduated ex- else tax on the output of tobacco factories a measure for the relief of the Independent Iroducers-these things increased the pessdmism of spectators and investors, but there can be little question that the same underlying cause affects all the great capitalist countries.

felt again in the market places. Eur ope seems to see it's political situation darkly, for some reason, although the
 Balkan peace conference has begun
 in Paris. All the Balkan states, near
 ly all the great powers, and of course
 bankrupt Turkey, are eager to bor- row in the aggregate vast sums at
 the earliest opportunity. Tn addition
 to these demands, the field of bor- rowing has been widely extended Of late by the inclusion of China and
 India, so that the demands upon capi-
 tai are probably greater than ever before. At the same time, costly puf,- lie improvements are being construct ed or projected by states and cities all over the world on a scale never before known. War armaments now involve an annual expenditure of an
 unproductive nature beyond all the previous experience Of mankind. The present luxury of living among an im- mense number of people has never been eQualed.
 Tn view of all the circumstances, 1t is encouraging to note @. case like that of, the people of Rhode Island, who
 have voted down a S2,000,00O bond is- sue for road improvement. Improve ments that can wait, should wait. In
 any event, 1t appears they will nave

 The difficulty perfectly solvent muni- cipalities and states have in borrow ing isn't confined to America The London market is glutted with undf- gested securities, and for several months 1rst-c1ass bond issues resting on indubitabIe security have been fore ed back upon the underwriters to car ry. This has happened to cities like Montreal and nations like Brazil. The French government is making unusual preparations to market a big loan, and the effects of it have been al- ready felt in New York in the shape of gold exports. The Chinese loan two weeks ago was a success not simply because it bore so high a rate of interest and sold so far below par.

general system is high. The tissues of the leg are evidently below par in their ability to resist disease, possibly as a. result of the injury suffered in childhood. For such conditions you should apply dressings saturated with hot solution of boric acid. which are kept from drying out and cooling by placing over the dressing a piece of oiled silk or waxed paper. About one tablespoonful to the pint of water will give you a suitable degree of strength in which to use the boric acid.
 Dear Doctor:-I have a pain in my back over the kidneys. Have had 1t for three or four months. I always have to get up as early as three or four o'clock and stay up the rest of the night After I am up an hour or two the pain wears off. Then ann not bothered any more till the next night or morning when the same trouble appears again. have taken several different kinds of medicine, but it did no good. Please advise me what to do.
 The condition you, describe is known as Flnnbago and is one form of auto intoxication or self poisoning which frequently is the result of absorption from the digestive tract of some of the end products Of defective digestion. It would be wise to have the urine exam ined, so as to be sure that the kidneys are not involved. A laxative and non stimulating diet must be used. Large quantities of water, or pints should be taken daily for a time. Compound aeutain is a valuable stimulant to the liver, kidneys and other glands thro which the poisons of the body should be eliminated as rapidly as possible. For relief of the acute attacks, not r7e 10s7 the Home Health club books are of great benefit, followed wdth some good, stimulating nntment containing To- bel1a.

LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS
Beautiful Eyelids

Did you ever think that one of the great beauties of the human face is the upper eyelid?
 The next time you are in a shop or 3 street car where you can look at a good many women at once, make a few comparisons.
 You will find that the woman with the sunken. eyes Is as ugly as the one with the beetling brows.
 When ones eyes are closed the dis tance from the edge of the upper lid to the brow should be the same as from the lid to the base of the nose.
 Your upper eyelid should be almost translucent, soft and unwrinkled and of creamy Whiteness.
 If you find your eyelids getting dry and wrinkled put a good flesh food on them at night and bind a cloth on them when you go to bed.
 Never rub the eyelids harshly and never rub your eyes When they itch give them a bath in an eye cup With a weak solution of boracic acid.
 To massage the eyes rub very gently with the two middle fingers from the nose outward toward the temples, then take hold of the eye wtnkers and pull the upper lid down over the under lid as far over on the check as possible and roll your eye up as far as it will go- Do this three or four times. :
 Then look down (with the eyelids closed) as far as you can for three or four times
 twist your eyes to the temples and to the nose. Do this at night after wash ing them with the boracic acid and then bind the flesh food over them. In the morning you will see a great i'm provement-

He Is Also Conceited and Likes to Be
 Left Alone.

The American ratt1esnake Is really one of the most human of living creat- 11res. says Professor Manley, an Eng fish naturalist of wide repute. He Is a socaabIe, amiab1e~repttle, and, more over, a most honorable enemy. But he Is also extremely conceited. He knows that he possesses a death-deal- ing power and is consequently of the opinion that because of this he should be considered the terror of the wilder ness. Other animals understand per fect1y how he regards himself the tebad man. of the region. and they recognize his terrible power. For this reason they have had to study his limitations, which he in his egot- ism is blind, to.
 The rattlesnake gets frascib1e on oc- casions, Professor Manley goes on to say. He becomes most cross when his vanity has been wounded. But he rarely bites human being except when he is of the opinion that his own personal safety requires it. Neither does he go out hunting trouble. His sociabIe instincts lead him to seek the same comforts with which men sur round themselves, and if men would only leave him alone he would not object to their company at all. If he enters a room he mediately seeks a retreat under a stove or g. bed or a dresser and sometimes win work his way laboTious1y into the very walls of the house and emerge through the ceiling paper, or again will crawl be- tween blankets or under mattresses, not dreaming of the commOtion his discovery would cause.
 Dogs are perhaps the most danger ous enemy the naughty ratt1er has to face. Together with hogs they are the only species of animal that are al most entirely immune to the venom of the rattIer Oftentimes a shepherd dog will come out badly bitten and used up from his first encounter with a rattIer and have to be taken care of for days by his master. After ward, though, he becomes wiser, and in due time develops into an adept at the art of killing his enemy.
 The cat is by far the c1everest of all at playing with the rattler and out witting him at his own game. He seems to be aware, too, that pUss is making fun of him, and she therefore succeeds in working him up to a ter rible rage. She has no trouble at all in inducing the snake to coil, and then she cautiously stretches out a forepaw in his direction. He becomes furious and strikes, but her paw is not there, for of the two the cat is in fnitely the quicker.
 Coyotes are much the same in their dealing with the common enemy. playing on the weaknesses of the snake for their own pleasure for long lengths of time. Horses are not near Iyl so clever or wise in their dealings. Of course, one reared on the range will avoid d rattIer as a mule avoids work. and at the dread sound of the

rattler will leap and shy. Eastern horses taken west do not know so much at first, though they speedily learn. There seems apparently no uniformity in the rattling.
