THE POWER OF SUGGESTION.

To the Editor: Suggestion is one of
the greatest forces known to man. By
a simple suggestion many seemingly
impossible things have been accomplish
ed. Also by this same force men have
lost their lives Everything looked at
may suggest good or evil according to
its quality.
The mind Of young people are very
susceptible to suggestions whether for
good or evil. The child Is mind is very
plastic, and often much harm is done
by suggestions through pictures and
otherwise. The mind Of many children
are poisoned with suggestions Of strife,
hate, fear, murder, and many other
things, before they reach their teens.
The other day met a little boy, on his
way home, with book he obtained at
the public library. ! asked to see the
book, it contained twenty cuts or pie.
lures and eighteen of them were sug
gcstive of murder, bloodshcd strife,
death, men in open battle, shedding
each others blood. Passing the picture

boards that were wholly unfit to be
seen by children, on anyone else for that
matter. One person shedding the life
blood of his fellow man, suggestions of
hate, cruelty, revenge, murder Many
pictures seen in the movies are sug.

things suggested to the young mind call

Dangerous Spring and Summer
Fire Season Is Possibility

Washington, March 3.-The possibil-
ity of a dangerous spring and summer
fire season in the national forests in
the west is pressaged by reports that
two forest fires occurred in January
and that the snowfall in much of the
Rocky Mountain region and in the foot.
hills has been much below normal, the
forest service announces.
January fires are almost unheard of
in the national forests and the snow
reports are regarded as especially sig.
niticant, as they indicate that unless
the deficiency is made up the forests
will be dry earlier in the spring than
usual, with consequent increases of the
fire menace.
The fires repoted occurred in the
Pike forest, in Colorado, and in the
Black hills forest, in South Dakota.
The latter is believed to have been of
incendiary origin, according to the dis.
trict forester at Denver. The total
area burned over comprised about rs
acres.
The district forester at Ogden, Utah
in charge Of the national forests in
Nevada, Utah, and southern Idaho re
ported that the snow in this region
also is far below normal.
BE careful about the kind of diges
tive remedy you put in your "tummy,'
warns the department of agriculture
/ Examinations of number of product,
wnicl purport to contain certain en-
Gyms Of ferments supposed to be usefu
in promoting digestion shows that thes,
contain little, if any, of these activ,
agents, the department declares.
Further investigation shows that th
manufacturers frequently have employ
ed sufficient quantity of pepsin, dias
tase, pancreatin, trypsin, or similar ma
terial, but in many cases no attemp
has been made to determine whethe
the material used is really active. Ii
certain cases manufacturers have com
binea pepsin and trypsin, which ten,
to negative each other.
''Tne great trouble with many o
these preparations" says the depart
ment, "is that they dom keep wei
and while active at first, after tim
lose their digestive activity. The d,

turcrs that preparations claiming

A significant Indication of the spread
of southern interest in diversified
farming is contained in the estimate
CT the bureau of crop estimates tnat
more than double the quantity of oats

IN the cotton states last fall than in
1913.
The fall sOwings in 1918 amounted to
approximately l,S72,000 acres; in 1914
to 3,775,000 acres, an increase of ,9O3,-
O0O acres. If the same acreage is sown
to spring oats this year as last, the
1915 crop in the co,ton states will be
more than 6,257,O0 acres. Recent re-
ports, moreover, indicate an intention
to increase the spring sowings as well
The increase III the fall sowings of
wheat, though not so great as with

crease in the acreage sown to fall wheat
and oats is 100000, or more than 10
per cent of the land planted in cotton

spring seedlings of oats and wheat show
no departure from the practice of form

HEALTH INSURANCE

Some people are naturally thin
There is also a natural pallor but
most people who are both thin and
pale are far from we'll and they need
a tonic.
Many people neglect to take a tonic
until they get so sick that a tonic is
not sufficient just because the demand
of the debilitated body is not insistent
enough. The pale face. weak nerves.
enfeebled digestion are neglected un-
til the point where pain or actual
breakdown requires medical treat
ment. A tonic taken in time is the
best health insurance. 1t supports
the overtaxed system. the worried
nerves until nature can make re-
pairs.
