 You do not secrete sufficient of the alkaline juices. It is quite prob able that you have been in the habit of drinking some kind of liquid while eating.

What ever it is, chew until 1t becomes a liquid by being mixed with the saliva. Then you can go on with your meal, but take with it absolutely no drink of any kind. Chew everything you eat just as you do the dry toast, and you won't require the liquid. Tea and coffee are absolutely forbidden. After a week you can eat fruits, all you will thoroughly chew. It is quite probable that couple of tablespoon fuls of olive oil at night, followed by a teaspoonfuI of cream of tartar in water the next morning for sev- eral days would benefit you greatly

 Diabetes is fatal in a, majority of cases and is much more dangerous to the young than to the old. You will have your life prolonged by judicious diet and proper habits of living. In the Home Health Club book, Vol. 2

PROTEST HOLD-UP . OF IL. s. MAIL BY
 BRITISH OFFICIAL

Washington, June 17.-The first official protest growing out of reports of the interference with the malls since the European war began was before Secretary Lansing of theN state department today with a request for action. The complaint in point was that lodged with thesecretary by Swedish Minister Ekengren who in a letter written on instructions from his government. stated that United States mail pouches destined for Sweden had been broken open in England, that letters had been open ed and censored and that one regis tered unit had been retained.
 The communication recited two specific. instances of interference with United States mails for Sweden, pointed out that such acts were in violation of the provisions Of the world postal convention and asked that appr6priate action be- taken.
 While state department officials de- clined to indicate what if any action would be taken, it was said in dtplo- n1atic circles that representations probably would be made by the Unit ed States to Great Britain asking that

Bell Telephone Co. Makes
Big Gains During 1915

That prosperity is still continuing
in Harrisburg is proven by the figures
given by S. B. Watts, local manager of
the Bell Telephone Company of Penn
sylvania. in an interview this morning.
He stated that on the first day of De-
cember. 1914, the Bell Telephone Com
pany had in service on the Harrisburg
exchange 1895 telephones, and on the
first of December, 1915, there were in
service 1854 stations, or gain OF 66S
stations, and that the business of the
first eleven months of 1915 shows an
increase of 149 stations over the same
period of 1914. He also stated that
it is not only in Harrisburg, but that
Hummelstown shows a. gain of SO sta
tions for the first eleven months; Mid
dletown, Is, and Steelton, 80. This
simply goes to prove that business is
picking up and that there is more
money for the people to spend for
the necessities of life.

To Ward OFF Winter
Complexion Ills

To keep the face smooth, white and
beautiful all winter. there's nothing
quite so good as ordinary mercoliZed
wax. Rough, chapped or discolored
skin, inevitable IN this weather; is
gently absorbed by the wax and re-
placed by the newer fresher skin be-
meath. The face exhibits no trace of
the wax, the latter being applied at bed
time and washed off mornings. Creams,
powders ami rouges, on the otner hand,
are apt to appear conspicuous at this
season. because of alternating eXpan-
sion and contraction of the skin. due
to changing temperatures. | advise
an ounce of ncrcoiized wax at any
drug store and use like cold cream.
This will help any skin at once, and in
week or so the complexion will look
remarkably youthful and healthy.
Winds and flying dust often cause
squirting and other contortions which
make wrinkles. You can quickly get rid
of every wrinkle, however produced, by
using q harmless face bath made by dis
solving / or powdered saxolite in 1s

credit for her work at home as part
of the industrial course.
Shop and mechanical work are an
important part of the Gary plan. The
instructors in these lines are skilled
laborers and get regular union wages
They instruct the boys in carpentry,
plumbing, planting. metal work,
printing and electricity, while keeping
the school in repair and doing its
necessary daily work. Since the build
ing is in constant use, constant repair
is necessary, and the young mechanics
learn from the first to face practical
problems.
The well-equipped Gary school in
cludes a printing press. where the
pupils may get a very fair knowledge
of that trade, including photography
and engraving. The Froebel School
now manufactures some of its own
text books, and many of the schools
take orders for outside work. The
printing plant of the Emerson school
in Gary did nearly two thousand dol
lars worth of printing work in one
year and made a profit over all eX-
penses of that department In the
of the work was over three thousand
dollars, and here also the work more
than paid the expenses of the course.
The defective child and the brilliant
child are the two great problems of
the public schools. Curriculums fit
the average child fairly we'll, but the
backward one cannot keep up, and the
bright one is idle half the time. The
Gary plan is easily adjusted to both
of these cases. A weak child may
spend most of his time in carefully
supervised play until he is strong
enough to study, and one who learns
slowly will be given plenty of time.
Prom otion is by subjects not by
grades. Tho brilliant youngster can
thus go ahead as fast as his aptitudes
Will carry MIN.
Evening Schools
According TO this new idea, the ad-
vantages OF school are not merely for
children. but for any citizen who
wants education. The Gary plan COM
prises evening school for men, and
last year there were more men en-
rolled in the evening classes, in some
of the cities, than there were boys in
the day school These evening schools
are divided into sections just as the
day classes are.
The privilege of using the school
shops is also, extended to all citizens
Anyone may make anything he wishes
in the school shops by merely paying
the price of the materials.
This maintenance of night school
for adults is a great deal more expen-
sive than day school, but its value to
a community Is equal to the cost, in
the opinion of most educators. For
one thing, it is the surest and quickest
way to make citizens out of aliens

plan is the use of the children to in
struct each other. The young peda-
gogues are graded upon their efii
cheney. The desire TO excel before
their fellows is, of course, a great
stimulus to effort. This feature of the
plan is the subject of a good deal of
discussion, educators disagreeing as to
its value, but it has undoubtedly been
used with success.
The Gary plan is purely and typi-
cally American in its origin. 1t was
worked out by William r. Writ, a
young educator who was placed in
charge of the public schools of Gary,
Indiana. Gary is an industrial town
with a population Of $4,000. There
are nineteen different nationalities
represented. To educate the children
of this motley crowd of alien laborers,
and to make good American citizens
Of them with rather scant appropria-
J tions, was the problem that confronted
Mr.. Writ.
Out of this difficulty and this need
grew the big idea that is now attract
ing the attention of all progressive
American cities.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid
troubles bring misery TO many. When
the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently, and the poisons
are carried to all parts of the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains, heaviness, drowsiness, irrita-
bility, headaches. chilliness and rheu-
Tnatism. In some people there are
sharp pains in the back and loins,l
distressing bladder disorders and
sometimes obstinate dropsy The uric
acid sometimes forms into gravel or

affects the muscles and joints, it
nauses lumbago, rheumatism, gout

why. my DEAR" said Mrs. Stevens,
bustling into the apartment, this is
the first l have heard anything about
Warren's accident. Why didn't you
let me know; perhaps we might have
done something to help you"
But there was really nothing to
do" explained Helen. "Of course,
was terribly worried until I heard
but Bob did everything possible, and
then we have insurance, so there Is
really nothing to worry about"
But, my. dear, I heard he was out
with his stenographer.'
Helen swallowed hard and turned
her face away a moment. 1t was
going to be harder than she had
imagined to bluff it out. Then she
turned to Mrs. Stevens calmly and
said:
Wherever did you hear such an
absurd story. OF course, Warren is
supposed to have done something
behind my back, and 1 am supposed
to be home in sackcloth and ashes
meditating on divorce. Is that the
story?"
Mrs. Stevens was staring curiously
at Helen.
do you mean to tell me that it
isn't true?"
We'll. that depends upon how
much you have heard, and what you
believe
"I am anxious to hear from the
beginning, so hurry and tell me-"
Helen was gaining poise as she
went along, and now she continued
promptly.
well, if you really did hear a
weird story, all that can do is
to correct it. Warren did have Miss
Evans out in the car that night, but

heard the fact?"
Helen Makes Bold Effort to Be Calm
"Why, the men downtown were talk
ing about it. Mr.. Stevens told me
about it, and, of course. Helen, l have
not mentioned it to anyone. l under
stood that you would tell me all that |
wanted to know. I remember the
time that came TO you about Will. 1
shall never forget it, never"
Helen had no idea of confiiding in
Mrs. Stevens, much as she liked her
for e friend.
The story goes" went on Mrs. Stew
ems, that Warren had an accident on
the Boston Post road, and that you
demanded that he discharge the girl
Immediately. Is it true so far?"
I'm the main. AS I said, Warren
did take her out in his car, and 1
knew she was doing so.
isn't it strange" Helen went on,
"how things like this are exaggerated?
Warren met Miss Evans as he was
going to the lodge meeting. She had
been having dinner with girl friend
and was hurrying home. She stopped
before taking the subway to telephone
her mother out in Westchester and, to
her amazement, was told she was
very ill.
"Then she missed the train and
Warren offered to take her home. He
