He SET Up Type
When the Times
Was First Born

Who should blow in today from
the far north but Arthur G. Bell,
of the famous Bell printers ink
family, the first regular linotype
operator The Times ever had.
A dozen or so years ago, when
The Times was making its first
bow to the world, Bell used to sit
at his machine and set up Just
about all the type, the local
news. telegraph doings and sport
scandal that went into the four
pages.
Not only that, but he did a lot
of editing while he was pound
ing the keys.
AS the result of this valuable
experience he is now editor, part
owner and manager of The Times
at Fairbanks, daily and weekly.
He says it's some paper, too.
Although he has been In Alas
ka for a number of years, Bell
still sticks to Tacoma as his
home. He Is here now for a rest
and change of climate. He is a
brother of Stanley Bell, of the
Stanley Bell Printing Co.
He says that Fairbanks Is look
ing forward to great things, nota-
bly, supply or reasonable fuel,
with the completion of the gov
eminent railroad. He expects to
take jaunt back there soon,
after he has had chance to take
good look at his home town.

WHAT DISPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT

Indigestion and practically
all forms of stomach trouble are,
nine times out of ten, due to
acidity; therefore stomach suf-
ferers should, whenever possible,
avoid eating food that is acid in
its nature, or which by chemical
action in the stomach develops
acidity. Those sufferers who
have been obliged to exclude
from their diet all starchy, sweet
or fatty food, and are trying to
keep up a miserable existence on
gluten products, should try a
meal of any food or foods In mod
crate amount, taking Immediately
afterwards a teaspoonful of bis
lurated magnesia in a little hot
or cold water. This will neu-
tralize any excess acid which may
be present, or which may be form
ed, and instead of the usual feel
ing of uneasiness and fullness,
you will find that your food
agrees with you perfectly. Bis
urated Magnesia is doubtless the
best food corrective and anti-acid
known. It has no direct action
on the stomach; but by neutraliz-
ing the acidity of the food con-
tents, and thus removing the
source of the acid irritation
which inflames the delicate stom-
ach lining, II does more than
could possibly be done by any
drug or medicine. Do not dose
an inflamed and iritated stomach
with drugs. but get rid of the
acid--the cause OF all the trouble

MORE MEN WANTED
FOR WINTER WORK

More men are needed for winter

opinion of T. l.. Stanley, federal labor
agent cooperating with the state de-
parttnent of agriculture and labor
Mr.. Stanley believes that this phase
of the labor problem is of vital i'm.
pOrtance. If sufficient men are found
to fill the demand for this kind Of
work it means that more of it will
be done and the proportion of sea.
sOned labor, never as satisfactory as
all the year round work, will be re-
duced.
1--WE find that there is real scar
city of men for winter work through
the state" declares the labor expert.
"The many coal mines in the west
ern part of the state need men to
mine and haul coal. The Bitumina
mine of Washburn in Mclean county
needs eight or ten men to mine and
three to haul.
AT Hebron the pressed brick COM
pany is also in need Of more men.

men was never better all over North
Dakota. Steady employment may be
secured on farms for those that fill
these qualifications"

cheap stuffs as formerly they would
not look at.
What is more, they did all this on
their own motion. No government had
to lecture, to eXhOrt or even to ask
them to save. They seem to have felt,
all of them, that when the life of
France hung in the balance was no
time to be thinking of dress, and they
put the clamps down hard on every
expenditure big and little.
The whole nation is doing it. Thrift
was always pre-eminent French Vir-
tue, but since the war began these
people have found new wrinkles in it
that make their old.time thrift look
like extravaganza. NJ. RibOt, their H.
nancial genius, says they are fighting
the war on their stockings, meaning
their savings. But the amazing thing
is that as fast as they empty the
stocking at one end they put some
thing into it at the other.
TO beat a people like that is some
job.
For this reason with some Others)
France is far and away better off than
any other country in the war. High
prices and all, she is in the best con-
dition, and the least likely to get hurt
when the thing is over.
A few staples have been cruelty
high priced and there has been no
corresponding increase of wages, but
you can't find here the usual results OF
that sort OF thing. The people accept
it stoically. To them it is part OF
the invasion, to end when the invader
is kicked out.
Nearly all the French coal mines
are at present in the enemy's hands;
as, therefore, coal must be imported,
it has reached unprecedented figures,
$25 a ton or more. Potatoes, TOO, for
some mysterious reason, have risen al
most 100 per cent. But many other
things have shown little or no In
crease.
The average increase Of the cost OF
living in France has been that in Eng
land, or about IS per cent.
One reason why meat prices, which
have scared elsewhere, haven't scared
here, is a very pretty reason for US.
France has no beef trust; the govern
ment does the slaughtering. Also. the
government has fixed up meat price
list, compelled butchers to display It,
and comes down bif! on any that fool
with it. And France, always raising
its own meat, has conserved its cat
tie supply, which Is where she has the
bulge on the rest.
But there Is a lot more to the great
reserve strength Of this nation: When
the war is over, French soldiers will
come back to their jobs, and for most
of them there will be enough to go
around; because the chief job in
France is tilling the soil on your own
farm, and that's the Kind OF job that
doesn't get away from you.
There are nearly 100000 French
farmers that own the farms they cul-
tivate. Their jobs are clinched.
Thirty.five thousand families own
all the land in England.

insanity of commercial competition
