1t pays to read the advertisements
in a newspaper and in many cases
saves the reader money. This has
been brought to our notice recently
in one case especially. During De-
cember, January and February we
advertised a very cheap clubbing
rate OF The Herald and Daily Cour-
ier-Journal, good only during those
months. Since the offer expired We
have received several applications
for this rate which We could not fill.
In fact it pays to read all the adver-
tisements in a newspaper.

Fists Across the Sea,

= London Saturday Review: When
the American ambassador tells us-in
some degree at least seriously-that
better English is spoken in America
than in England it really is a little too
much. At the Savage club dinner this
week he said, ION our side of the At
lantic we speak English better than
you do, and more of it," The Ameri-
ans are a people Cor air a people,
that, as Charles Dickens told them,
like to be Cracked up. They are rich.
They are-or seem to ~be-confdent of
themselves. They excel at the bust
ness of games. They make things
hum. But it is absurd to pretend
they speak good English. Their Eng
lish and their spelling of English
which, we are sorry to say, is initial
ed by English writer's who should
know better-are most unpleasant
Their twang is sometimes so. Nor is
American literature of much account
The Americans, it is true, have had
Emerson and Walt Whitman, two
great and original writer's and think
ers. and they have had Hawthorne
Bret Harte. too. counts in a smaller
way. whilst William Cullen Bryant
wrote a wonderful little poem. To a
Waterfowl. But the list of their writ
ers of genius, or even high talents, is
painfully restricted.

1.-THE imperfect or defective type of
woman is hat represented by the very
slight. thin-chested and nervous wom-
an which at present is so favored by
fashion" declared DR.. Richard Root
Smith, of Grand Rapids, in his inter
esting address. DR.. Smith added, how
ever that I'VE have no reason for be-
Iieving woman is worse off now than
she has been for many generations"
Other speakers included II. X.
Laughlin, superintendent of the
Eugenics Records at Cold Spring
Harbor, N. Y; DR.. Lillian South of
Bowling Green, Ky, and Prof. r. B.
von Kleinsmid, secretary of the Am
erican Association of Clinical Grimm
ology, of J~effersonville, Ind.
In his address on the Deterioration
of Civilized Woman, DR.. Smith assert
ed the same physical defects in the
woman Of today have been present
among women for many generations,
even among women of unCiviliZsd
times" Modern methods of living, I'VE
said, have not proven more disastrous
to m than to men. The speaker
said the most perfect type of woman
is that represented by individuals
compact in build. deep-chested with
steady nerves and neshy enough for
the anatomical angles rounded out"
The subject brought up for discus
sion by DR.. LauShlin was sterilization,
1Ie urged this method for preventing
the reproduction of degenerates and
declared that it had met with great
success in many prisons and else
where. DIR. South spoke of the hook
worm influences. She recently com
pleted an extensive investigation

Prohibition in Iceland.

The law prohibiting the importation
of intoxicating liquors into Iceland
which has been in effect since Jan. ],
1912, has been so strictly applied that
not a drop Of alcohol has been taken
into the country since then, unless by
smugglers, and none has been pro-
duCed there.
The law permits the selling of
liquor already in stock until Jan. -,
1915, but OF that day no more sales
of strong drink will be allowed.
The price of the spirits still on sale
has been increased enormously and it
is not possible to obtain drinkable
beer.
The total abstinence movement has
made great strides in the island. In
every district Of which are lodges
consisting of hundreds of members
says The Brooklyn Citizen. In most
cases hotels do not possess licenses
for the sale Of alcohol and in Rey-
Ilavik, the capital. strong drink a be
bought only in one hotel.
There are still many opponents of
prohibition and these work energeti-
cally against the application of the
law. arguing hat it means the restric-
ton of personal liberty and that the
treasury can not dispense with the
revenue of spirits.

BRIGHT
THROUGH EAST
BIG FINANCIERS OF THE COUNTRY
GATHERED Al CINCINNATI TO
ATTEND UNION CENTRAL LIFE
INSURANCE CONVENTION PRE-
DICTED GOOD TIMES.

The financial outlook for 1914 is
considered to be very bright by all
the big financiers of the east said
A. F. Colwell, manager of the Fargo
branch Of the Union Central Life IN
surance Co, who has just returned
from a convention of the maagers Of
the company and its financial repre-
sentatiVes held last week in Cincin-
natl.
The conventions" continued Mr.. Col
we'll, was the largest ever held and
the rapid advancement of the company
was looked into with great interest to
al! those present. A new feature adopt
this year was that of having the
financial representatives Of the COM
pany meet with the life men, which
was most interesting from every stand
point.
North Dakota came in for a good
BIT Of valuable advertising through the
able address Of Mayor NJ. F.. Murphy Of
Grand FORKS. He quoted from the lat
est census report data, which surprised
everyone present, even though from
Iowa and Illinois, which states were
mentioned by way of comparison. He
showed that in the last census report
n North Dakota stood fifth among
me states from an agricultural stand
point and Ventured the assertion that
she would stand first when the next
census is taken.
WI huipHy praised the good JudS-
1nent or the company in it's investment
of 100000 in North Dakota farm land
mortgages, which showed what con-
serVative eastern capitalists think OF
the agricultural possibilities of this
safe and the future of it's land.
1t was very interesting to note the
different addresses given by leading
financiers Of the east and their great
faith in the outlook for business and
sound development during the coming
year: Considerable reference was made
to the administration currency bill
which seemed to meet with the sincere
approval of all.
Mr.. Wright, president Of the Union
Trust Co, and vice president of the
First National bank of Cincinnati, said
the currency bill would do away with
financial panics for all time to come.
"Che new home office building OF
the Union Central Life Insurance Co.,
one of the finest structures in the
world and the ta1lest anywhere ou-
side New York Ciy, was greatly en-
joyed by all present. 1t was the first
convention held in Cincinnati since it's
completion"

and the information which she gath
cred was given to the conference.
Society by its sale Of liquor and
tobacco encourages mental deficiency
which results in crime" declared DR..
kleinsmid. whatever may be said
In the way Of excuse for the moderate
use Of alcoholic beverages and tobac-
co among adults, there can be no JUS
LITIGATION for the use Of these drugs
by adOlesCentS.'
He urged that as a remedy for
crime. he scientific study of criminals,
instead Of punishment, be taken up
and carried out. There is, however,
a danger Of excessive sentiment al
ready in treating criminals" he said
in conclusion. Il refer to the inef-
fectual efforts Of some of the Ions
haired men II short haired women
who are trying to work reforms"
DR.. stephen Smith, president Of the
conference, at the day session, de-
Clared the normal age Of man is 100
years, in spite Of the fact that only
three mem in 1000 reach that age.
DR.. Smith is well INC active at the
age of 90 years.
Among the other speakers today
WERE, DR.. Louis +. Bishop of Ford

man of Newark, N. j., and Cressy l..

Medical Opinion On Modern Dances.

The latter day dances nave been dis
cussed and criticized from almost ev-
cry standpoint. To complete the list,
The Journal of the American Medical
association las recently raised it's dig
nified and professional editorial voice
in gentle warning. 1T seems some
what late" it says, "to enter a mild
protest against the fervor with which
the newest 'so-called' dances a been
taken up by a public already saturated
with various nerve and mind destroy
ing amusements and caprices. 1t seems
unnecessary to call attention to the
fact that the tango. the various waltz
es, the maxixe, etc, are being %arduous-
ly cultivated by callow youth and cal
loused old age. The problems created
by these dances differ according to the
age of the participants; for the young
the question of morality is paramount;
for the old the question of too great a
strain on a dilated heart or an arter-
iosclerotic vessel is apparent. The
physician will do well to caution the
stiff-jointed, aged patient, who derives
too great a pleasure from these-to
him-potentially harmful amusements'"
