THE VILLAGE coMMUNEs
 IN AUTocRATIc RUSSIA
The Product of Civilization and. In-
 stitution Peculiar to It's People
Special to The Bulletin.)

Especial to The Bulletin.)
 Washington, D. C., Nov. 10.-"There is an institution in Russia-solely a product of it's civilization and pecu- sians feel can never fail their country in its hours of necessity and from which they expect many blessings distinguishing theirs beyond other States in the years of coming devei- opment,| begins bulletin just pre- pared. by the National Geographic Society. This institution is the Mir, the Russian village, the peasant com rnune upon which the power of the Empire is builded. In autocratic Russia. the land with something suit ed to every temper. the village com munes form an excellent representa- tion of self government of the most extreme democratic type.
 ''The ,Russophil claims that his country's rural communes presents a practical solution, of every difficult social problem which eonfronts the statesman and. eonomist of the west. It is to be made the foundation head of such high quality of social jus tice in Russia, as the rest of world has never dared to seek. In short, the Mir guarantees to the enthusiastic Moscovite the greatness of the future of his fatherland.
 While few in the western nations agree with the Russians concerning the latter's estimate of the blessings of their village organization, the Mir is. nevertheless. of unusual interest to students of things Russian: With in it's. organization are included .-al- most fiye-sixths of the Russian peo- pie, and these fve-sixths are locally governed according to more advanced principals of equality and equal op- portunity than any other peoples in the present day world. And this Is found in the, worlds greatest surviv- ing stronghold of autocracy!
 The Russian village bears a strong resemblance to the patriarchical fam fly. While it's ties are not so fast munity' organizations elsewhere. The Russian village is an example in prac tical communism. The lands which the individual members till, are owned. and parceled out by the village; the grazing lands are common property is responsible for the taxes of its members. This village responsibility gives it a strong interest in the con- duct of its members individual af- fairs.
 .sThe land is redistributed periodi- cally among the members of the com munity, and this forms. their most inn portant political endeavor. While utterly democratic, there Is no cleo ton excitement, among them as no Village offices carry with them no honor and sSaall pay. On the other hand they entail much work. A story is told in Russia, that one peasant who had been guilty of some serious nnisdemeanor was informed by the proper village officer, that hencefor- ward, he would be incompetent to hold public office., The rniscreant bowed very low and spoke his heart felt thanks for the new privilege con- ferred 'The village assemblies meet in the open, air.

TURN OVER TIME When Nature Hints About the Food

 When there's-no relish to food and all that one eats doesn't seem to do any good, then is the time to make a turn over in the diet, for that's Nat ure's way of dropping hint>that the food isn't the kind required.
 For a number of years [ followed railroad work, much of it being office work of a trying nature. Meal times were our busiest. and eating too much and too quickly of food such as is commonly served in hotels and res- taurants, together with the sedentary habits, were not long in giving me dyspepsia and stomach trouble which reduced my weight from 205 to 160 pounds.
 There was little relish in any food and none of it seemed to do me any good. It seemed the more ate the poorer got and was always hungry before another meal, no matter how much I had eaten.
 Then I commenced a trial of Grape Nuts food, and was surprised how small saucer of it would carry me along. strong and with satisfied sensations of hunger, weakness or dis tress as before
 T have been following this diet now for several months and my improve ment has been so great all the others In my family have taken up the use or Grape-Nuts with complete satis- faction and much improvement in health. IT
 Most people eat hurriedly, have lots of worry, thus hindering digestion and therefore need a food that is pre- digested and concentrated in nour- ishment.s

SETTLE QUESTION
WOMANCITIzENSHIP

Since the last election, when the
franchise was granted women, there
has been considerable speculation as to
what constitutes citizenship. The Unit
ed States bureau of immigration and
naturalization has published the fol-
lowing regulations on this subject:
See. That any American woman who
marries a foreigner shall take the ma
~tionality Of her husband. At the ter
mination of the marital relation she
may resume her American citizenship,
if abroad, by registering as an Ameri-
can citizen within one year with a
consul Of the United States, or by re-
turning to reside in the United States;
o., if residing in the United States at
the termination of the marital rela-
tion, by continuing to reside therein.
Any woman who is now or may here
after be married to a citizen of the
United States, and who might herself
be lawfully naturalized, shall be deem
ed a citizen.
That any foreign woman who ae-
quires American citizenship by mar
riage to an American shall be deemed
to retain the same after the termina-
ton of the marital relation if she con
tinues to reside in the United States,
unless she makes formal remuneration
thereof before a court having iurisdie-
ton TO naturalize alien; or if she re-
sides abroad she may retain her citi
zenshp by registering as such before a
United States consul within one year
the termination of such marital
relation.
1t may also be stated that il has
been judicially held that a woman
during the marital relation cannot be-
come naturalized. See in re Harriet
Rionda, 164 Fed, $50. This decision
is followed generally throughout the
United States. Also in U. s. VS.. Co
hen, 179 Fed, S34.
