ON ACCOUNTING

Warns Business Men Against Failure
to Check Up Their Business
Affairs

That the business man in every walk
in life must sooner or later look to
the unbiased accountant to audit his
affairs and thus give him clean bill,
was the gist of the remarks of |. f.
Thomas of the exporting accounting
firm of L. F. Reinhard & Co., of Spo
kane and Occur d'Alene, who is just
completing his audit of the books Of
the university, in speaking at the last
meeting of the chamber of commerce.
II am anxious to be friends with
my audience and to do so want to
find a way of getting on good terms,
and in addressing you on the subject
Of accounting l may say something
that might be contrued in the wrong
light, SO l say that imitation is the
sincerest form of flattery, and seeing
that the country of my birth, England,
has initiated America in so many
things you will not take it amiss if
you are told that you should initiate |

There is no excuse for any person
to avoid keeping his books in shape

to consult with any business house in
Moscow and will offer the experience

it is desired, giving any reasonable

Both my partner Mr.. Reinhard,

proce that a very large percentage
of business failure arise from this
one cause. The proof of the advisa-

by reason of the fact that the large

@That's what this paper says" replied
Will Bisbee doggedly, as if he felt the
necessity of lodging the blame. I'm
reading what it says right here: Ezra
Nudge, 1901. Therefore elected"
Starr had risen from his seat. He
reached mechanically for the paper, and
Will Bisbee, just as mechanically, passed
it over to him. The crowd was shouting:
Fake! Fake!"
"Let Starr read it! You're all balled
up, Will!' shouted somebody near the
platform.
One glance at the paper was enough to
convince Starr that something extraordi-
nary had taken place. He saw why it was
that Henry Treadway had been taken ill.
He looked down upon the frenzied crowd
below, and, as he let his gaze go around
the quarter circle, it met the eyes of Ezra
Nudge, sitting like stone image, his

hands on the top of his cane. He saw in
that steady regard Of Ezra all the covert
triumph that lay in the gray eyes.
1t was a challenge to Starr, and he
knew it. There suddenly came back into
his mind the evening at Ezra's house, and
the challenge he himself had thrown down
to the old man upon parting. Well, the
old man had taken it up! And with
vengeance.
STARR threw back his shoulders and
drew long breath.
"Order!" he cried at the top of his
voice.

ringing tones, "that our fellow townsman,
Mr.. Ezra Nudge, has been given 1901
votes-by his fellow citizens--and is
therefore elected the most popular man in
Borton.'

ring voices.

"Permit me to say that that word is out of
order. There is no reason to doubt these
figures. They are properly sworn to. If
Ezra Nudge is in the audience, will he
kindly step forward?"
OF course, Starr knew very well that
Mr.. Ezra Nudge was in the audience; but

he was dealing with him as one stranger
with another.
There was a low gasp as Ezra Nudge
rose and strobe down the aisle. He never
had seemed so magnifcently erect and
dignified as at this moment. AS he neared
the base of the platform--the very spot,
indeed, where he had suffered humiliation
at the hands of Clint Weatherbee not long
before-Starr bowed politely and beck
oned him up the little fight of steps to the
stage.
There was absolute silence in the hall.
If it was a farce that was being enacted,
nobody seemed to realize it,
Ezra Nudge was on the platform at
last. He stood facing Starr. They were
close enough to "wrassle,' as somebody
remarked afterward. Without a sign of
emotion, Starr took from the table the
silver cup, held it lovingly moment, and
then spoke:
"Mr. Nudge, have the honor to pres
emit you (acting for MIR. Treadway) this
beautiful loving-cup, which is yours by
virtue of being elected, in a voting con-
test, the most popular man in Borton. You
will find inscribed upon it certain words
that indicate that it is q token of the love
and respect in which you are held by your
fellow citizens. l felicitate you on the

A Case of Goiter Cured

IN goiter the results have been even more
miraculous. An attorney of Detroit,
for instance, had muscular rheumatism,
particularly affecting the muscles Of the
legs and back. In February, 1918, he
was attacked by exophthalmic goiter. An
unsuccessful operation left him reduced
in weight in a weakened condition,
troubled with insomnia, and delirious at
night. His eyes bulged, and there was
great trembling Of the hands. He could
read only few minutes at time. He
was "as nearly a wreck as man could
be and be alive
In this condition he went to Doctor
Baldwin, arriving at the sanatorium on
Saturday. The Doctor and his nurses
accused him of rambling all over the place
that night, although he had no recol-
lection Of it. The next day the Doctor
gave him a treatment. On Wednesday
prisms were put on, and he was able to 60
to town on the street-car. On Thursday
he went for drive about town. On
Sunday, after week Of treatment, he
bought a voluminous Sunday paper and
read it through. He continued to inn
prove until he regained his full weight
and strength, and his pulse and blood
pressure became normal. All evidence of
goiter disappeared.
OF course, these phenomenal results
follow only when eye-strain causes the
trouble. There are many other causes
for these conditions that lenses will not
help. These conditions, however, are
readily determined by examination But,
in Doctor Baldwin's experience, fully 80
per cent. of all stomach disorders are
cured by preventing the energy loss from
eye-strain. 1t is interesting and gratifying
to note that cases of insanity, melan-
cholia, epilepsy, functional paralysis, and
other eye-strain refexes and disorders,
successfully treated ten years ago, still
remain cured.

diagnosed as incipient tuberculosis, on
examination at the sanatorium was found
to have diabetes. He had nearly three
per cent. Of sugar, and his blood pressure
was 220-about 20 millimeters too high.
On being "fogged down" by prisms, he
was entirely relieved of the eye-strain,
symptoms Of diabetes disappeared, and,
what is more wonderful, his blood pres
sure fell to $50, and remained there.

Curing Sickness with Eyeglasses
By EDWIN F. BOWERS, Md

converge our line of vision to focal point
from fourteen to twenty inches from the
eye, and to hold it there more or less
tenaciously during the working day, the
external eye muscles are brought to
condition Of spasm.
This results in the muscle fibers be-
coming thinned and weakened, and the
muscle finally being shortened. Also, the
ciliary muscle, which flattens and elon-
gates the eyeball Thereby altering the
focal point of it's lens), and the ciliary
nerve become strained from over-fatigue
from this excessive use.
This constant and abnormal exercise of
the nerves and delicate muscles results in
the wastage of tremendous amount of
nervous and physical energy, which is re-
flected along the lines of least resistance,
producing painful or dangerous disorders,
sometimes in organs remote and appar-
emily unconnected with the original source
of trouble. 1t may even cause dis
ordered function in some of the glands.
Further, as the energy Of more than two
thirds of the brain is used by the visual
centers, any extra strain upon the nerves
and muscles of the eyes naturally causes
a weakening or even an impoverishment
of the brain itself
Now, we provide crutch for lame
leg, a sling for an injured arm, truss or
a bandage for weakened abdominal
muscle, and rest for a damaged heart.
Doctor Baldwin contends that it is equally
sensible to provide mechanical help which
will relieve strain and bring rest to
weakened eyes.
This the Doctor accomplishes by what
he calls the repression method which
consists in dimming the vision and re-
taxing the spasm of the ciliary muscles
by placing convex lenses before the eyes.
This cuts the vision down from one
quarter to one half, and rests the entire
visual apparatus. 1t conserves nerve and
muscle activity, prevents dissipation or
loss Of energy, and naturally strengthens
the nerve centers, relieving the reflex
symptoms, and ultimately restoring nor
NAL vision.
If the short eye muscle does not stretch
back to normal under the relaxing treat
ment, it is carefully divided. This little
operation definitely prevents any recur-
renee of the trouble from that group Of
muscles.
A patient who complained of progress
sive exhaustion, and whose condition was

Astonishing Effects Of Eye-Strain

VET have seen some of these miracles,
and have interviewed and heard from
many others who have been miraculously
restored to health. | have studied the
records of scores of cases, and talked with
physicians and Psychologists who first dag
nosed the conditions.
To see Doctor 2. l.. Baldwin perform
these feats of physical legerdemain, one
must journey to Kalamazoo, Michigan,
where Doctor Baldwin has sanatorium,
chiefly devoted to new and marvelously
successful method of treating tubercu-
losis and other germ and degenerative
diseases.
Doctor Baldwin's astonishing sue
cesses in treating systemic disorders by
adjusting the eye muscles seems to be
founded upon excellent reason. He claims
that, inasmuch as the natural position of
the eye is in distant" or parallel vision,
and as civilization requires most Of us to

TIP to within few weeks ago, had
any one told me that with eyeglasses
they not only could but did cure
cases of goiter-some of which had even
been operated upon without relief-and
any number of diabetic, kidney and high
blood-pressure conditions, should have
sent him hand-tooled, highly illumined

/ might have admitted that, by re-
lieving eye-strain and defects of vision,
it is possible to relieve migraine and other
forms of headache, neuralgia, dizziness,
and fainting spells, stammering hysteria,
and epilepsy, nervous exhaustion, de-
spondency, asthma, heart irregularities,
insomnia, spinal curvature from head
fitting, nausea and dyspepsia, rheuma-
tism and pelvic pains, backwardness in
school children, and perhaps even sub
normality or insanity, as DR.. George M.
Gould and other eminent observers have
been telling us for many years.

rect all these disorders but also to cure
