that all internal treatment was most
disappointing. he used static" or
friction machlne-made electricity to-
gether with a powerful 500-candle-
power lamp as a cure for the dis
order.
DR.. Grace advises that the victim
of sciatica continue his work. He
must not go to bed. but visit the
x-ray department Of a hospital or
dispensary.
There the tender parts Of the ham,
string muscles, the joints where the
sciatica is worst. are exposed for
twenty minutes to the rays of q 500
candle-power lamp. This Is put as
close to the bare skin as the heat
will permit
After the twenty minutes have
elapsed. the sufferer Is placed upon a
chair on a platform before one of the
electric friction machines used often
to generate x-rays.
A pewter plate or piece Of metal Is
placed over the sciatic nerve. just
where the soreness is most severe,
and this pewter disc-about three and
a half by four and a half inches In
surface-is connected to wire
which goes to the friction machine.
A little pain Is felt at first. but 1t
soon disappears. About twenty min
utes of this treatment every day for
two weeks will relieve almost all the
pain Of the sciatica, according to
DIR. Grace.

Why Not a National Dish?
The United States Of America Has
No Stew to Uphold Its Name
Oh, Shame Upon Shame!
By MRS. CHRISTINE FREDERICK.

NHE other day / asked three
people what they considered
as our national dish. One said
baked beans: another said
corn bread. and another said roast
turkey: at which / smiled a Mona
Lisa smile and said nothing.
But il would seem an anomaly
for the greatest nation on earth to
have no national dish which it
might offer at the banQueting
board of all the nations. From
Italy comes spaghetti" the Hun
garian offers us his goulash: the
Frenchman tempts US with pot
au-feu;" Ireland has her stew;
China her chop-suey: Russia her
''schee" and 'bosh." If we analyze
all of these national dishes we
shall see that they are developed
on the same principles-that Is,
they are all a combination of meat
and vegetables cooked together.
