OLD Max Ochs is interviewed ex-
tensively by the Davenport Democrat in
its Sunday issue as to why he has
not yet married. Max is one of our
neighboring city's richest bachelors. In
the interview he says there are so
many pretty girls in his home town
he has not had the heart to attempt
to make a choice, but adds that the
is because he has never been in love.
Perhaps not That's what all the old
hard shells say, but have you noticed
how hard they tumble when the onli-
est one comes along? Max says he
is As. We don't believe him.
IF you happened to be IN the bust
ness section of the city Saturday night
1t is probable that you witnessed the
spectacle on Market square, medi-
cine peddler, a red hot wagon and a
popcorn van competing for the nickels
of the crowd that had been attracted
by a cornet attack at the hands of the
chap with the mysterious cure-all that
he was letting go at a scandalously
low price in order to head off the pro-
cession to the cemeteries. We don't
believe that even Buffalo, Iowa, would
stand for such an exhibition. It's high

trums were given to understand that

Beef in Boston in 174O.

A writer in the Yale Review, who
notes that in 1740 beef could be bought
in Boston at II cents a pound, seems
to imply that that price was all it was
worth. Invariably a steak for dinner
was heralded by the vigorous pounding
with the potato masher welded by the
stalwart arm of the cook" The meat,
in fact, often came, he tells us, from
the carcass of "a COW than no longer
gave milk or a bull that had lost its
bloom"

The Reason.

While there may be danger of over working the word efficiency, there is little likelihood of pushing beyond due limits the idea which it has come to represent It stands for getting the maximum amount of results from the minimum expenditure of time, money, energy. The expert, the efficiency en- gineer, is invading all lines of busi- ness, eliminating waste in all it's forms. If it is worth while to pay efficiency engineers to show us how to retrench on business lines, is it not infinitely more important to employ efficiency engineers of the human ma chine? The real office of the physi- clan is to keep his patients we'll. All conscientious, up-to-date physicians agree to this. Since there is such an agreement among physicians, what is the contribution of osteopathy to the healing sciences? What is the reason for it's existence?
 The distinctive contribution of os- teopathy is that that mechanical de arrangements of various tissues of the body, by interfering with the blood and nerve supply of the organs, and consequently their functions, are a fruitful source of disease.
 No other recognized school of heal ing holds. these ideas, and since in the twenty-two years that osteopathy has been practiced as profession it has demonstrated in countless thou sands of cases that the theory is true, that it works, it would seem that the fact that it cures cases that nohing else will cure is sufficien req son for it's existence.

Recently Sultan, the four-year-old snow leopard, lost his mate, and for nearly "A hours he stood with his forefeet planted across the body of the Sultana, in the cage at the Bronx Zoo, New York At intervals he rais- ed his headI and roared long and plaintively. Ever. time he did this the lions and jaguars on either side of the leopard cage raised their voices in a deep-throated plait. In an effort to make Sultan abandon his death watch, Keeper Schwartz placed a big, juicy steak in the section of the cage inside the animal house but Sultan paid no attention to it. No keeper would dare attempt the removal of Sultana's body while Sul- tan was grieving, and it was not un- til forced by hunger to leave her, that Sultan was shut into the cage long enough to allow Schwartz to take her from the enclosure.
