Mother AT COLLEGE
With Three CHILDREN
Finds II Hard to Keep Up
With Daughters and Son.

st. Paul, Minn.-When three children
in the family are graduated from high
school in the same class the thing for
the mother to do is to take them to
college. according to Mrs. W. S. Aid
rich of Rochester and also of the Uni
versity of Minnesota.
Furthermore, if the mother has the
inclination. she should attend college
herself, is the even more radical state
ment Mrs. Aldrich made. She is put
ting into practice what she advises.
1T makes you feel younger. Posi-
lively it Does" Mrs. Aldrich assured
her visitor, after the strain Of the
weeks examinations had passed. But
it's no snap keeping up with the
youngsters" Mrs. Aldrich went on.
They're fresh from high school and
it takes a good deal of concentration
to get back to studying after you've
been out Of the habit for 81 good many
years. / enjoy it, though, and ! in
tend to keep it up. I'm going to have
plenty of use for what get here" she
said enthusiastically.
Mrs. Aldrich. registered in the uni
ersity directory as an unbiased acade-
mic student. is accompanied by two
daughters and a son. all enrolled in
college courses at the university.
Miss Mary e. Aldrich is taking a
combined academic and music course.
Miss Miriam Aldrich is a regular aca-
demic student. S. Allen Aldrich, the
son. has gone in for agriculture. All
three are members of the class of 1918
They are freshmen this year.
During the first semester the Al
driches avoided persistently every at
tempted interview. Their rather novel
venture they desired subject to no

any Of them found the work at the
university too difficult.
Even with the passing of examina'
ton week and the personal belief on
the part Of the Aldriches that they had
passed the ordeal successfully. there
was no opportunity to gain word
from them.
But there's one fact. l assure you.
Mrs. Aldrich added finally. ITS
genuine rest laying aside the books
once in awhile and taking q bit or
genuine recreation doing housework."

MUSIC MAKES HAIR GROW.
Boston Holds Out Hope For the Bald
Among Us.

Boston.-Bald men, if you would
have your hair return go in for music.
At least that is the cure prescribed by
DR.. r. Kenrick Smith. a prominent
Back Bay physician. The peace, har-
mOny and joy of music are what make
musicians hair grow long. according
to DR.. Smith. He says:
eff fright or grief will turn the hair
white, which we all know sometimes
occurs, why is it not perfectly logical
to assume that the opposite extreme.
that is. the tranquility. peace, har-
mony and joy of music would tend to
produce an opposite result?
"An expert statistician. after months
Of labor, announces that only one of
every hundred devOtees Of music is
hairless, while in every other profess
sion eleven in every 100 are bald. This
may, in part, be due to the habit tradi-
tional to musicians of always brushing
their hair backward"

Chicago a mental af-

So announced DR.. William s. Sadler,
a nerve specialist, in an address to
the Chicago Underwriters associa-
ton. But the gradual cure is easy.
! "A game Of baseball a round of golf
or long walk in the country will do
more to cure Americanitis than all the
medicines the doctors can hand out"
said DR.. Sadler.
He prophesied that soon a sickly
man would not be able to borrow
money nor get commercial credit, for
banks and business houses will keep
as close track of the physical condi-
ton of borrowers and time customers
as they do now of their clients finan-
cial standing.

PHYSICIANS MUST : REGISTER ID GIVE DRUGS TOPAT|ENTS Office of Revenue Collector Busy Taking Names of
 the Druggist sand
 Practitioners

Physicians and druggists are devoting much of their attention just now to the provisions of the new law regarding the sale and distribution of narcotic drugs, which goes into effect March 1. Under the law not only druggists who handle any derivation of opium or cocaine, but physicians who administer it must be reg istered at the internal revenue office. The mere possession of any such drugs with out being properly registered will be taken as prima facie evidence of a violation of the law and the penalty is severe.
 1t is said that some physicians have been ouoted as saying that they would not register, and would continue to ad- minister the drugs when, in their opinion, their patients needed it. Physciians who do net register will not be able to se- cure the drugs from any druggist, because the druggist who sells to an unregistered physician would lay himself open to inn prs1nnlent for a violation of the law.
 At tie office of the collector of internal revenue there is a very busy scene. Drug ginsts and physicians throughout this dis trict are paying their registration fees ard getting numbers, by which they will be lpnown and under which they will make purchases

PROPOSE CHANGES
 IN TOLLSAT CANAL
Secretary Garrison Orders New Computation in
 Freight Charges

Panama, February 2l.-Under instruc- tions of Secretary Garrison. changes are being proposed in the regulations for computation of Panama canal tolls which it is estimated will decrease revenues from the classes of freight affected ap- proximately 20 per cent
 It was discovered that the fixing of toll.' under the Panama canal rules at s1 20 a ton was illegal, the rate being greater than that sanctioned by law This arose from the difference between a ton as de- fined by the canal rules and a registered ton as measured under the United States statutes for ship registration The lat ter definition was applied in the Panama canal act of Congress, which provides for a maximum charge of $1.25
 The new rules will provide that the az gregate tolls paid by vessel at the rate of $1. 20 a canal ton must not exceed the aggregate tolls as computed on the basis of $1.25 a registered ton.
 The question arose specifically in con nection with lumber deck loads. Pacific coast shippers claimed that an illegally high rate was being charged The re- vised rules will be promulgated in con formity with an opinion of the Attorney General

The Dixie club met in Birmingham Thursday. Friday and Saturday of last week, viewed the city, elected new of- ficers, talked of business and decided il was all right and left for their homes This organization is composed of cleo trical men from Cincinnati to New Or leans. Oscar c. Turner of the Turner Electric company was reelected presi- dent, Thomas A. Burke of Atlanta, seere- tary and treasurer, and James Clark, Jr., of Louisville, vice president
 The club meets once a year to discuss credits and other matters affecting the trade, and business conditions and the outlook generally There were 16 repre- sentatives of IA cities present at the re- gently closed meeting, and every one of them appeared to be highly optimistic The statement was freely made that busi- ness would be normal within the next 30 or 60 days, and that business men would proceed along the lines usually followed in prosperous times.
 Oscar C. Turner, the clubs president. was especially optimistic. It seems to be the general sentiment of the club that business conditions have recovered com pletely from the temporary depression. ' said Mir Turner. "Of course, we don't ex- peet prosperity to jump up and slap us in the face. but it is sincerely believed that a steady improvement will be noticed heao eforward."
