ANOTHER DRY BANQUET.

AT the meeting recently OF visiting
governors at the Antlers' hotel In
Colorado Springs, the order went out
from the state house that no bever-
age stronger than grape juice, lem
onade and Manitou water should be
served. One paper describes the ca.
terer as almost paralyzed with as
constituent Evidently Governor
Anmons is of the same opinion as Sec
rotary of the Navy Daniels and 9TH

hold public offices should not indulge
in alcoholic liquors.

MILK AND WHISKY.

A certain man was in a bar-room
complaining loudly of the high cost
of living. Among other things, he
mentioned milk Just think of it,"
he said, milk nine cents quart.
How Is poor man to buy milk for
family at such a price as that ?"
Shortly afterwards he began to in
quire of the bartender the price OF
different grades of whisky. The best
grade was $3.50 quart, another
grade could be got for $125. while q
still cheaper one was only 81 a quart
The customer thought a few minutes,
and finally settled on that at 1928
Milk nine cents quart; whisky S1.25
a quart! No doubt the milk Is high,
and wages are low enough, but we
venture to say that the man who pays
$1.25 for a quart of whisky, when his
children could get fourteen quarts
of milk for the same money, is a poor
father Exchange.

A SCIENTIFIC FACT.

A man may undertake marriage
without wrong to himself his wife or
posterty, II he is morally and physi-
caily sound. But the habitual drinker
has no right to marry, not even the
man or woman who INDUCES in an oc-
casional drink. 1t is a scientific fact
that the child conceived at time
when either parent has been drinking
is inevitably the heir to nervous dis
orders which may very seriously af-
feet its life.-Dr George J. Fisher,

AS FATE HAD DECREED
BY ELLA WARRINGTON DAVIES.

why did you, who seem to be a wo-
man of education, choose such mental
employment as nursing?"
There was a sneer under the smooth
tones of Mrs Orme's voice that made
Julia Dayton bite her lips to keep
from answering hastily. Finally she
replied quietly: Il nursed my father
and my mother through serious i'll
ness, and when necessity arose
chose the career of a professional
nurse because l believed that | was
well fitted for It,"
And you chose wisely" said Doc
tor Orme, who had entered his sister
in-law's room unannounced
Miss Dayton made no reply, but
went about her work preparing some
thing for her charges comfort. trying
to appear unconscious that two pair of
eyes were watching her closely. Mrs.
Orme watched her because she felt
curious, and was beginning to notice
what a charming woman she was.
Doctor Orme watched her for both OF
these reasons, and for the added one
that, while they had fought together
to keep life In the body of his sister
in-law, vain, proud woman. he had
become deeply attached to the nurse.
He knew nothing OF her, but could
not doubt that she was good, gener-
GUS, and refined She never talked
about herself, but conversed on any
other subject with an ease and knowl-
edge which delighted him. Mrs Orme
was not pleasant woman to nurse;
she was fretful and naughty and az
soor as she had recovered enough
to be waited upon by a non-profession-
al nurse, Miss Dayton announced that
she would leave, as soon as her place
could be filled She felt that she had
already stayed too long under that
roof. because she had suffered much
on account of the arrogance of her
patient. Also she felt that should she
remain longer and be constantly In
the company of Doctor Orme, who
made the house his home, she would
lose her heart to him. She could not
hope that she. an unknown nurse,
might secure the love of this man,
wealthy, talented, and already famous
in his profession. Yet Julia Dayton
was mistaken He had already yielded
to the charm of her presence, and rec
ognizing the true woman beneath the
cold professional manner she assumed,
ne was assured she was worthy
mate for him, and determined to ask
her to share his future. When he
learned that she was about to leave,
he wrote to her, as she avoided being
with him, and confessng his love
asked her to marry him
Put your answer on the table near
the window in the sick room this
afternoon" he wrote in conclusion,
and pray that it may be the kind of
answer which my heart desires"
When Julia received this letter the
tender feelings she had so resolutely
crushed back-escaped from their
bonds, and her heart filed with joy;
she acknowledged to herself that she
loved him. Accordingly, she wrote
him letter telling him her life story,
Her childhood and youth had been
spent in home of wealth and luxury
Il accept your offer not because you
will restore me to my former place
in society, and relieve me from life
of toil-but because l have learned
y" love and respect you"

mission of the New York Postcard
uate Medical school has been making
an intensive study of pellagra in this
country for three years. Eerything
which might have even a remote
bearing on the cause or nature OF
pellagra has been studied by a spe-

end of this year and turn over its
records and material to the public

are cases of adenoids that will not
subside under the most hygienic care
of the throat and nose. Fortunately,
the pound of cure is under weight in
the case of adenoids. If they are
taken early enough they can be re-
moved by a trifiing and almost pain
less operation, although lacking in
the element of danger. They are
taken off as easily as fungus is re-
moved from a tree. The soft, PUPPY
mass is so slightly connected with
the healthy tissues below that they
can be scraped off with small sur
gical spoon or curette. The horror
of the knife need never be associated
with adenoids unless the child has
passed beyond seven years of. age,
and the tissue has grown more I'M
yielding.
The surgeon insists that it is i'm
proper to refer to the removal Of the
adenoid as an operation since it
is no more risky and much less pain
full than the extraction of a tooth.
1t is the result of the operation
that is of paramount importance.
The habit of nose breathing is quick
ly formed, the open mouth closes, the
vacant look disappears and the child
begins to fill out.
Sometimes they grow from three
to five inches in a single year fol-
lowing the removal of the adenoids
and jump a grade or two in school.
The time will come when no child
will be permitted to suffer from ade-
noids after his seventh year." con-
cluded the doctor, land then we shall
have little deafness, few cases OF
stunted growth and very little back
wardness in children"
The observant person cannot fail
to notice on the street cars or in any
crowd where there are very young
children, the frequency of the ade-
mold face. The pinched and unused
nostrils, open mouth and vacant ex-
preston proclaim the presence OF the
spongy growth, to which the pasty
complexion and inertia of the child
further testifies.
The appearance is less frequent in
older children, as the adenoids have
a tendency to disappear as the child
natures. By this time, however, the
mischief has been done, and he never
regains the time lost in early child
hood, when his body should have
been growing most rapidly, his mind
developing and his senses growing
more and more alert. This absence
of the evidence of adenoids in older
children is also due to the vigilance
of parents who have had the trifiing
operation performed, and thereby re-
moved the handicap under which it
has entered the race.

ADENOIDS ARE WEEDS IN THE THROAT

upon the ear tubes is constant deaf
ness is likely to ensue. Gatherings
in the ears are nearly always the
result of an inflamed adenoid.
1T is true that two-thirds of what
we call taste is really smell. Stop
ND the nostrils, and you cannot tell
the difference between apples and
onions, as you may know If ever you
have had bad cold.
Parents, hurt in their pride, first
of all, deplore the child's open mouth
They command it to breathe through
it's nose and the child tries to obey.
But it might as well try to breathe
through its ears. Sometimes they
carefully tie up its mouth as it sleeps
and it nearly chokes in its efforts to
obtain a little air. BY morning 1t
is pale and fatigued from lack of air
and the muscular effort of the night.
eff any affection can be worse than
adenoids, it is misunderstanding
parents who insist that the child
close its mouth when to do so is an
impossibility."
Before the surgeon proceeded TO
describe the operation for adenolds
he displayed numerous photographs
of children taken before the opera
ton and a few months after it, in
every instance showing "a surprising
development of the body and growth
of intelligence in the face. The mar
row shoulders, pigeon breasts and
slender limbs had changed complete
ly, and in few months the child had
grown as much as he could in two
ordinary years. Nature arrested is
like a train that is late-as soon as
the arresting cause is removed she
goes ahead at double quick time.
The vitality of the mucous mem
brane and tissues of the nose will
carry off the worst of colds and de-
stroy invading germs, but the useless
and half-dead tissues of the various
tonsils that are grouped around the
back of the nose and upper part OF
the throat have no such power of
recuperations. They ale dangerous
sponges, disease traps, and the sooner
they are removed the better in most
cases.
To be exact, there are the first,
second and third tonsils, the pair on
either side of the palate, the adenoid
behind the nostril and the tonsil that
it situated just above the pharynx.
This last occasions much trouble to
singers and others who use the voice
very much.
When an ounce of prevention is
still worth a pound of cure, there

HUNT PELLAGRA CAUSE
TO OPEN FIELD HOSPITAL AT
SPARTANBURG, S. c.
Federal Government Renews Effort
to Solve Mystery of New Disease

SPARTANBURG, S. C.-In a re-
newed effort to solve the mystery of
pellagra, the strange new disease
which is filing southern insane asy-
lums and, in Spartanburg at least,
causing more deaths than any other
malady, the public health service of
the federal government will open a
field hospital here July 1. The build
ing has been placed in readiness and
the equipment ordered.
DR.. R. A. Herring, past assistant
surgeon, who will be in charge, said
that the public health service ex-
pected to maintain the pellagra hos
pital here for five or six years. He
will be assisted in his researches by
a corps OF seven physicians and sci
entists, the personnel of which has
not been announced. The hospital
will have % beds, but it's purpose is
not so much to provide treatment for
sufferers as to provide material for
the Investigators, though in return
for permitting themselves to be the
subjects of examination and research
the patients will be given the best
possible treatment.

pital the second of two of the most
exhaustive Investigations ever made

THEIR EVENING MEAL.
For Which Poor Japs Pay Only One
or Two Cents

1t was toward evening when a
slovenly looking fellow with traV-
cling restaurant landed on the street
corner, rang a little bell, announced
to all that the evening repast was
now in readiness, says a writer in de-
scribing sight in Japan, which par
| ticularly impressed him. Many of the
poor people nowadays find it hard to
buy a morsel of rice or even barley
and as a last resort turn to this
"macaroni" restaurant. where they
are able to get meal for one or two
cents. l wondered if this man got
his supply from the manufacturer
whom l saw kneading the dough on
straw mat with his feet, not a
great distance away.
Dipping ball after ball of this
"macaroni'' into boiling water and
again in succession into separate
bowls, the vendor adds a sprinkling
of cheap soy and green onion cuttings
and sticking into them the crudest
kind of chopsticks, presents them to
his miscellaneous crowd of custom
ers. Sturdy coolies leave their cart
shafts, haggard women release loads
of boxes and bundles from their
backs, children sorely in need of
handkerchief and staggering under
the heavy load of an often unwearied
younger brother or sister, aged from
two weeks to three of four years
all hollow chested on account of ex-
cessive toll and their constant stoop-
ing posture, with great rapidity bolt
down this seething mess. The noisy
gulpings and much gurgling and
sucking in of the breath which SO
distress a westerner may be excused
by the fact that in their minds it
only shows polite appreciation of
their food.
