 ansson's theory that they are desend-
 ants of Scandinavians who may have
 drifted over the icy north of this con-
 timent seven or eight hundred years ago. Those white people, mostly of light hair and eyes, no doubt were
 descended from families that Eric the
 Red, pirate, murderer, outlaw, first
 from Norway and then from Iceland, but always daring adventurer and prospector, had prevailed upon to leave Iceland and settle in Greenland. There had been Eskimos in Greenland before
 that time, and in the centuries fol-
 lowing there were warlike invasions
 of them uopn the holdings of the orig inal Icelanders living in Greenland. Between that great island, and the | mainland, or ice, of North America there may have been frequent voyages of warning peoples, and so some of the Greenland descendants of the Scandin-
 avians may have settled with the Es- kimos on this side.

The conduct of Captain Cousins and the crew of the steamer Congress as reported in our recent dispatches was admirable. That they got all their passengers and themselves as well ashore without loss of life would seem to indicate coolness excellent discipline, and possibly heroism of which we shall doubtless hear later.

ABOUT EATING.

Ten or fifteen years ago it was re- ported that John D. Rockefeller, the richest man in the whole world, was quite depressed in spirits and that he expected to be called upon at any hour to face the Creator and give an ac- count of his stewardship. His health generally was bad and collapse seemed imminent indeed.
 The cause of this sad condition was his stomach which for many years had refused. even in it's most willing mo- ments to do more than partial duty. This useful, not to say necessary or gan, was said by his enemies to have been poisoned and paralyzed by fear. his haunting fear of the men he had Iut ouI of business which is Il nice Way of saying rob cd ami ruined. iiowevv. this u ay have De2I,. he was d chronic dyspepsia, suffering acutely and despairins of life.
 The report, possibly apoeryphal, was current that he was willing to pay million dollars to any physician who would cure him.
 And Il came about that he was cur ed but not by the skilled men of medi- cine. as 1t happened, nor by the use of drugs of any sort.
 A kindly philanthropist named Fletcher persuaded him to chew his food and to throw aside all worry and haste at meal time. He was told to eat anything he wanted but to masti- cate il thoroughly, to chew it until there was nothing left to chew on.
 Thus what we all know as "Fletch- erism' got d great deal of prominence and 1t soonh ad many disciples most of whom found health in consequences.
 In the case of John D., his stoamch soon resumed it's full and proper func- tions and he has been living along serenely ever since, cavorting about the golf kinks, blinking blandly at pedestrians from behind his chauf- fer's back, attending weekly prayer meeting and otherwise disporting him. self according to his peculiar nature. Furthermore he seems likely to live a long time yet.
 From all of which it seems reason able to infer that Fletcherism may be d good habit for anyone to acquire.
 What is it? Why, simply this: Go to your meals in an unhurried and un- worried frame of mind, chew your food It it all gone. Don't swallow any of it, when it is well enough masti- cated it goes to it's allotted place with no effort on your part. Eat anything you wish but do not overeat. Eat a little less but eat it more." If you have only ten minutes in which to feed why, take your time just the same. What you can chew well in ten minutes will do you infinitely more good than a whole dinner bolted in haste.
 Thorough chewing is claimed by Fletcherites to be a cure for all the ills which come crowding upon the carelss and hasty eater.
 A faithful adherence to the teachings of Fletcherism will bring with it con- plete freedom from indigestion and its productive capacity and far keener enjoyment of eating than is possible under customary ways of bolting food.
 It IS an old fad and seemingly a permanent one and is worth trying es-

Doors of Diplomacy Open
to Consideration of Peace

Prussian militarism were considered
in German quarters as being some
what related, at least in the British
viewpoint. Limitation of ornaments
and the regulatory measures which
necessarily would develop from a
league to maintain and enforce peace
might, it was suggested, result salts
factorily to Great Britain.
Guarantees for the future in the
German viewpoint is taken to mean
much more than peace terms. Guar
antees, it was ,said,- would have mu-
tually to be assured by all the
nations involved in this war, as well
as the neutrals. 1t is contended that
the European belligerents could not
regulate their armament without the
same regulations applying also to the
neutrals, including the United States
One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the premier's speech from
the American viewpoint was his ref
erence to the naturalization of Great
Britain's shipping. While just what
is contemplated is not clear, It Is
realized that any such step might
have far reaching effect upor
American commerce.

UP TO CARRANzA
FOR A FINAL SAY
RESPONSIBILITY OF ACCEPTING
OR REJECTING TERMS
OF PROTOCOL
my Associated Press,


PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 20.-Secre-
tary of the Interior Lane and his
colleagues on the Mexican-American
joint commission have placed upon
General Carranza the responsibility
of deciding whether the American
government should continue its eff
forts to effect a satisfactory and
amiable adjustment of the difficulties
between the two countries and then
adjourned until after the holidays.
1t was made clear that there can
be no mediation of the conditions on
which American troops will be with
drawn from Mexico. or that the atti-
tude OF the government as outlined
in the declaration Of policy made by
Secretary Lane when the protocol
was signed at Atlantic City has not
been altered.
The message Of the Americans was
in reply to that presented by the
Mexicons when they reconvened
Monday. 1t was believed by the
Mexicans that they would receive
Carranza's answer within a week OIL
ten days and that the conferences
might be resumed not later thar

of the central powers
reserving the same right.
Regarding guarantees the entente
will require for the future and the
general subject of reparation, Ger
man diplomats were sure their gov
ernment would at least be willing to
enter a discussion. Germany holds
to the view that If one set of bellig-
erents brings up the subject Of rep
aration, the other may with propriety
do SO, and that she would have claim
for damage in Poland, Galicia and
East Prussia, which have suffered
from the armies of the entente. How
ever, Germany is represented as
perfectly willing to discuss in a
conference any and all subjects re-
lating to compensation, and it was
pointed out that 1t was cheaper for
any belligerent or set of belligerents
to make reparation than to continue
the war, at least until next fall
when, it already has been announced
Germany again will offer to enter
peace negotiations, should the pres
ent efforts fail.

mand for guarantees of peace that
should be permanent centered atten-
tion again on what each party con-
siders might insure such guarantees.
Partial universal disarmament has
been mentioned at the German en-
bassy here in dispatches from Berlin,
while Lloyd George limited at the
substitution of popular for secret
diplomacy.
The allied emphasis on reparation
is regarded by American officials as
one of the stumbling blocks in the
negotiations at present, for it Is
feared that Germany is in no mood to
do more than abandon some Of her
military conquests.
No clear statement has been made
as to what is meant by reparation,
but 1t is assumed that with the allies
1t looks forward to the restoration OF
the devastated parts of France, Bel
GUM, Poland and Serbia.
The subject of guarantees for the
future is regarded by German Off
cials here as being so intricate as
being impossible of solution without
lengthy conferences.
