There is one fundamental factor upon
which to build confidence; that Is there will be
a good demand for our food products for
months to come, war or no war. We have
plenty to spare for export from the crops of

age in 1918 Europe it is certain will raise
small crops next year, even if the war termi-

European soil cannot be adequately titled this
year and it will be years before the devastated

therefore, of profitable prices for our surplus
food products for some time to come Addi2

Preventing Premature RuriaIs.


 The fear of being buried alive al ways has been, and is, so widespread that the French Academy of Science some years ago offered prize equal to $7,500 for the discovery of some means by which even the inexperi- enced might at once determine wheth- CT, in given case, death had ensued or not. A physician obtained the prize. He had observed the following well-known signs: If the hand of the suspected dead person is held towards a candle or other artificial light, with the fingers extended and one touching the other, and one looks through the spaces between the fingers towards the light, there appears scarlet red color where the fingers touch each other, due to the blood still circulat- ing; it shows itself through the tis- sues which have not yet congested. When life is entirely extinct, the phe- nomenon of scarlet spaces between the fingers at once ceases. The most extensive and thorough trials estab- lished the truth of his observation.

Schalk is bundle of energy. On the bench he shows the same aggres- sive spirit he does back of the bat. He is always the first of Comiskey's players to report for morning practice and he is working hard to perfect his batting power. Just now Schalk is showing rare form at bat and speed on the bases.
 Schalk was particular pet of Kid Gleason, former White Sox coach. It was Gleason who took the youngster in hand when the Sox bought him from Milwaukee. Schalk showed abil- ity from the start, but he was a little rough on certain plays.
 For while he had trouble in solv. ing the delivery of Walsh. Gleason took pains to coach the kid. He got down on his knees back of the plate and showed Ray how to stop Walsh's low splitter. Billy Sullivan, the vet eran catcher of the Sox staff, was all ways one of Schalk's particular ad- visers. Ray always had the whip, but he had to be shown the weakness | of various batters, and now he looks like the best ever seen in Chicago back of the bat.

BREAKING THE NEWS GENTLY
That He Should Not Shock the Nerves of His Friend.

In Liverpool there is a man, writes a contributor to Pearson's Weekly, who is famous for his calmness on every occasion. One day he strolled leisurely into the office of a friend.
 I've just had chat with your wife," he began.
 "Why, I didn't know she was in town"
 "Oh, she wasn't in town," replied the other. "I called at your house."
 T didn't know she was receiving to- day." said the husband, with some sur prise q thought she had a head ache"
 "She didn't mention it to me-" said the calm man. There was quite a crowd at the house."
 "A crowd!" echoed the husband.
 Yes" went on the calm man. "They came with the fire engine"
 "The fire engine!" gasped the hus- band.
 "Oh, it's all right" went on the calm man. Its all out now. It wasn't much of a fire, but I thought you'd like to know of it."

HIN RIGHT DIRECTION
Federal Trade Commission Has
 Started Well.
Long-PrevaIent Form of Business Fly pocrisy Discountenanced Plain Notice That the Law Is Hence
 forth to Be Obeyed.

One form of business hypocrisy has been discountenanced at the start by the new federal trade commission. It will not make rulings in advance on knotty. questions submitted to it by corporations. It will not open consultation room for those who are reluctant to obey the antitrust laws. It will issue no certificates of char acter based on hypothetical conditions.
 Business that is mixed with more or less politics has industriously cultivated the idea that public reg ulation has left it in hopeless doubt as to right and wrong. In this frame of mind it has asked the as- sistance of the commission, probably not so much for the purpose of learn ing what it should do as to find out how far it can go without getting into trouble.
 The antitrust laws condemning con- spiracy, monopoly and coercion are as plain as any other laws. They run against evils universally recognized Men who are tempted to commit the offenses thus forbidden are not ignor- ant and they do not fail to weigh the responsibility. It is no more possible in good morals to maintain a public agency for the guidance of such peo- pie than it is to expect the district attorneys office to instruct the popu- lace generally upon the loopholes of the criminal law.
 The claim that the Sherman and Clayton acts are ambiguous as to their main purpose is pretense designed to encourage and excuse their non enforcement. It is made plain almost every day that jurors, prosecutors and even judges are not keen in support of these statutes, but nobody who reads and knows enough to do busi- ness can rightfully plead misunder- standing or doubt as to their meaning. If there were no law at all on the subject, most men would know in their hearts that the things prohibited are wrong.
 A disposition to get as close as pos sible to the line between law and law lessness, perhaps to overstep it, has characterized too many of our busi- yers in private practice who do not hesitate to give advice in such cases, and some of them have been made rich if not famous thereby.
 The trade commission avoided a SC. rious' pitfall when at the beginning of it's career it refused to enter into competition with the professors of the art of skating on thin ice.

After all the fans have been heard from regarding the spectacular work of Ray Schalk, formerly of the Brew CTS, who is drawing pay from the White Sox ball club as catcher, few remarks on the youngster from the boss, Charles A. Comiskey, might be interesting.
 "On all sides I hear good things about Schalk, and his actions back of the bat bear them out" said the Old Roman, in discussing his prize. "Schalk shows more life than any player I have ever seen. He is level headed and his thinking and natural ability stamp him as one of the great est catchers in the world today, and he can claim equal distinction with the great and only Buck Ewing, con- sidered in his day the peer of all back stops"
 Commy isn't given to boosting play CTS very often. He likes to see his boys win and wants to know what's the matter when they fail. But he has been sweeter on Schalk than any youngster who has broken into the game since Ed Walsh came to the front.

Eddie Collins will feel out of place with the White Sox, because Eddie can hit.
 Ed Walsh hopes to be a come back. There are seven other clubs roofing against him.
 Kitty Bransfield, former Pirate first sacker, wants job on the National league umpire staff.
 Manager Rowland's successor at Peoria is lazy Hoffman, former man. ager of a Tri-state club.
 Stewart Jackson, a former Kansas City newspaper man, has been made assistant secretary of the Hoofeds.
 There is a suspicion in the mind of Manager Rowland of the White Sox that Big Ed" Walsh is about to come back.
 Forrest T. Plass, last year manager and part owner of the Dubuque I. 1. I. club, has been appointed scout for the Detroit club.
 "Joe Jackson all over again." is the description applied by the Cubs to Polly McLarry, the recruit second baseman from Louisville. Branch Hickey has resumed his practice of daily conferences with the Browns, and begins the work each day with half-hour session of talk in his | hotel room
 In the opinion of McGraw there is no better fielding third baseman in prospect than Angelo Aragon of the | New York Americans. He says the little fellow is as quick and fast as Maisel.

 My food did not agree with me, and I grew thin and Respondent. I could not enjoy the simplest social affair for I suffered constantly from nervousness in spite of all sorts of medicines.
 "This wretched condition continued until I became interested in the let ters of those who had cases like mine and who were being helped by eating Grape-Nuts.

 q had a new feeling of peace and restfulness. In few weeks, to my great joy, the headaches and nervous ness left me and life became bright and hopeful.
