THE lOWlY PEANUT TO
KNOCK HlGH.PRICED FOODS

London, Sept. 1.-Peanu's, locally
known as monkey nuts. are recon-
mended as cattle food by the I'M
perial Institute, after series Of
experiments with a view to finding
a substitute for the higher-priced
foods.
Before the war, these nuts were
imported in great quantities both by
Germany and France. They were
crushed and pressed for oil and the
residue pressed into cakes for cattle.
But England used but a small guam
tity as the people, when they eat
them at all, eat them raw being ig'
norant of the fact that they are i'm
proved by roasting.
India, China, and Africa are the
great producers Of peanuts, although
they are being introduced into Brit
ish tropical dependencies.

lips that opened in a genial smile, and
a nose of perfect contour. His face
only bore the rapidly vanishing traces
of some cuts and a few white marks
occasioned by surgical sewing. The
patient himself proceeded to confirm
the assistants assertions, talking in
the slang of the French !nfantryman:
Yes, it's myself; twasn't any good
for the Germans to spoil my portrait;
the doctors tricked them, after all.
AS you see, he has manufactured for
me a very decent face. For myself,
think he has improved it, and |
believe they'll find me more of a
knot hewn i get back into the coun-
try Then he lit a cigarette and
went off to see the show.
The surgeon had taken a portion
of the patients back and used it to
replace the cheek. With the skin of
the back he fashioned the lips. Then
he took a portion of the mans short
ribs to make the nose and the sub
stance of the chin. From the fore
head he took the skin for the nose
and from the stomach the skin for
the chin. Finally when the man was
practically refashioned and could be
permitted to look at his new face,
the doctor asked him if there was
anything he regretted. The soldier
replied, Yes, my moustache." "Oh,
don't you worry about that" said the
doctor, and without even applying an
anaesthetic he took from the hairy
nape of the neck small strip of skin
and grated it on the upper lip. 81
can't promise YOU" said the doctor,
that you will have as victorious a
moustache as that which YOU left in

HUMAN REPAIR FACTORY
SOME SURGICAL SCIENCE

London, Sept. 1.-(Correspondence l.
of the Associated Press Some re-
markable instances of surgical science
have been brought to light during the
present war, but the following story
telling how horribly mutilated SOL
dier was reconstructed from his own
list A French newspaper correspond
ent was admitted to the Rothschild
hospital to see for himself the mir
acle in question after the surgeons
had completed their work. The cor
respondent was shown photograph
of a man wounded in the French
trenches. 1t was a terrible picture.
The face lacked the lower portion OF
the left cheek, the chin had gone and
also the lips and nose.
While the correspondent was look
ing at this appalling picture, one OF
the hospital assistants made sign
to one OF the patients who was just
going out to spend an afternoon at
a picture show.
"Here is our man." said the assist
ant
The correspondent stared uncom-
prehendingly, but the assistant added
with a smile, Yes, assure you, this
is the patient whose photograph you
have in your hand; the man who was
brought into the hospital without his
cheek. Jaw. lips, chin and nose"
The spondent at first thought
the assistant was fooling him, but the
patient who was just goirg out bore
few signs of the dreadful wounds
depicted in the photograph. His right
cheek was the twin brother OF his
left cheek; he had an excellent chin;

EXCHANGE RATE
MAY BREAK OFF
BRITISH TRADE
CAUSING CONSERVATION IN
THE BUSINESS WORLD-GREAT
BRITAIN NOT COMPELLED TO
BUY HERE.

New York, Sept. 1.-Foreign ex-
change rates reached thei" most ser
ious stage today with an overnight
break of 2 l-2 cents in sterling, the
English pound selling in this market
at 4.5S II, close to the mark where
curtailment of big foreign orders to
the United States would follow, in
the opinion of bankers here.
Nothing like the violent break in
quotations had ever been recorded
in foreign exchange markets here be-
fore Foodstuffs, manufactured goods
and many other products, in fact. al
most everything except actual muni-
tions of war, were embraced within
this category.
The big break means that English
buyers, in addition to the top of the
market prices already paid by them
in this country for American products,
are called upon to pay It premium
of 2S II cents on every pounds worth
of purchases, or more than five per
cent. With London carrying this on
erous burden something new to Brit
ish bankers, as English money has
for generations been the worlds
standard of international finance, the
question discussed in barking circles
here today was how long Great Brit
tain would continue to buy her sup
plies as she was not compelled to
buy here.
Not an American contract has been
cancelled as yet, it was said, but the
heavy premium which British buyers
must pay gives every indication, in
the opinion of local bankers, that
cancellations will follow unless rates
are rectified very soon and that there
will be a decided slump in new orders.
What this would mean to American
industries could not be foreseen.

STOMACH TROUBLES
DUE TO AcIDlTY
So Says Eminent Specialist

So-called stomach troubles. such as
indigestion, wind, and stomach-ache
are in probably nine cases out of ten
simply evidence that fermentation is
taking place in the food contents of
the stomach, causing the formation of
gas and acids. Wind distends the
stomach and causes that full, oppress-
i've feeling sometimes known as heart
burn, while the acid irritates and in
flames the delicate lining of the stom-
ach. The trouble lies entirely in the
fermenting food. Such fermentation
is unnatural, but may involve most
serious consequences If not correct
ed. To stop or prevent fermentation
of the food contents of the stomach
and to neutralize the acid and render
IL bland and harmless, a teaspOOntul
of bisurated magnesia, probably the
best and most effective corrector OF
acid stomach known, should be taken
in a quarter of glass of hot or cold
water Immediately after eating, or
whenever wind or acidity is felt. This
stops the fermentation, and neutralizes
the acidity in a few moments. Fermen-
tation. wind and acidity are dangerous
and unnecessary. Stop or prevent them
by the use of proper antacid, such
as bisurated magnesia, which can be
obtained from Bomar Drug Co, 7. y.
Coleman. ReXall. and F. j. Ramsey,
AID thus enable the stomach to do
its work properly without being hin
dered by poisonous gas and dangerous
acids.-M. f. 7.

COMPENSATION
LAW IN EFFECT
OPERATIVE IN ITS ENTIRETY =
ITS coNSTiTUTIoNALiTY MAY
LATER BE ATTACKED BY COAL
NINE OPERATORS.

Oklahoma City, Sept. 1.-The much
heralded workman's pensation
law, generally regarded as one of the
most important acts of the fifth legis-
lature, becomes operative in its en-
tirety today, Wednesday, September
l. That portion of the law providing
for the creation of an industrial COM
mission to have charge of the ad-
ministration of the provisions of the
act became effective August /, but
the law as it operates between en-
ployer and employe was held up un-
til september /. This was done in
order that the commission could be
appointed and complete the organiza-
tion necessary for administering the
act before the compensation feature
became operative. Compensation for
all accidents which occurred after
midnight Tuesday, in the different
forms of employment enumerated in
the act, are subject to adjustment
under the terms of the law.
1t was announced at the offices of
the commission Tuesday afternoon
that all details necessary to the prop
er administration OF the act had been
completed and everything ready for
the law to become effective. 1t was
stated that only a small per cent of
the employers of the state had COM
piled with that feature Of the law
which requires that the policies of
liability insurance carried by employ
ers to insure their employees compen-
sation, to file copies of the policy
with the commission Employers who
fail to do this are subject to a fine
OF 81 day for each employe until
such time as the policy is filed. MI
merous letters have been received
by the commission from employers,
giving various reasons why their pol
icies have been delayed, and stating
that they would be filed in due form
in a day or two.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1915-09-02
Coal Operators Object.


Because of an alleged failure to Sc
cure liability insurance at rate
which they considered reasonable,
coal mine operators have registered
vigorous objections to the law and it
is understood will soon institute pro-
ceedings before the supreme court to
test the constitutionality Ct the act.
1t was announced some time ago by
coal operators at McAlester that this
would be done, but the proceedings
had to be delayed until the act be-
came entirely operative.
The compensation provided for in
the act shall be payable to persons en-
gagged in the following employment,
which is defined by ae act as "haz-
ardous':
Factories, cotton gins, mills and
work shops where machinery is used;
printing, electrotyping, photo-engrav-
ing, and stereotyping plants where
machinery is used; foundries, blast
furnaces, mines, wells, gas works,
water works, reduction works, ele-
vators, dredges, smelters, powder
works, laundries operated by power
quarries, engineering works, logging,
numbering, street and interurban rail
ways not engaged in interstate com
merce, buildings being constructed,
repaired or demolished, farm build
ings and farm improvements excepted,
telegraph, telephone, electric light and
power plants or lines, steam heating
or power plants, and railroads not en-
gagged in interstate commerce. If
there be or arise any hazardous oc-
cupation or work other than those
hereinabove enumerated it shall come
under this act"
