Lack Of exercise, especially in the fresh
air, IS frequently the cause OF indigestion
and liver torpidity with consequent sal
lOWnesS and more serious skin troubles.
The lungs, in pumping fresh air into the
system and stale air out, act like bellows
in burning up the fuel upon which the
body Is fed. Walking with the avowed
purpose Of inhaIing deep draughts OF
fresh air should form part Of each days
regime.
Purposeful breathing also gives the en-
tire abdominal organs the best kind Of
massage Horseback riding is especial
ly beneficial on account Of the motion Of
Jolting it causes; riding astride is now
advocated for hygienic and health rea-
sons. In santsrfOum in Germany Cwhere
all manner Of out-of-door health treat
ments are INDUCED in without elciting

Germany is the home Of more health
fads Of a fantastic nature than any other
country. and one Of the most recent Is
walking on all fours for digestive trou-
bles OF one kind or another The treat
uent has taken hold of the public seTi-
ously as its rationale becomes more ap-
parent Although it Is many ages since
man assumed the upright posture, there
Is no doubt that our ancestors walked
on all fours. This position gives the
stomach greater freedom. Il unpacks
the liver and gall sack and allows a
freer interchange Of all the digestive
juices. II does a good many other things.
and Is especially recommended for
obesity and such conditions as give rise

products. One has only to remember that
animals, although gluttons. are rarely
troubled with indigestion and never grow
obese until they become old and useless
to see that this fad has much to recon-
mend II.

TELLS GIRLS OF
NITROGEN USE
DR.. Cushman Explains Role
Modern Chemistry Plays
in War.
CAMP GIRLS INTERESTED
Chevy Chase Encampment Passes
Through Rainstorm Without Disas-
ter; Sentinels Retrict Visitors.

"A man may be an excellent lawyer
or a good Congressman and yet not
know beans about chemistry"
Such was DR.. Allerton S. Cushman's
characterization of those members of
Congress who are stating that the
process of extracting nitrogen from
the atmosphere is obsolete, and has
been given up by Germany. DR.. Cush-
man, who is director of the Institute
of Industrial Research, was speaking
yesterday to the 200 young women of
| the Chevy Chase training camp. and
| they greeted the statement with a
burst of applause. For they were in
terested in his discussion of the neces-
sity for the development Of nitrogen
fixing plants in this country, and many
were making notes of what he said
on such scraps of paper-the backs
of letters Chiefly-as they had found
in their pockets. To them chemistry
was anything but a dry subject: nitro
gen is to play the leading role in the
possible war for which they are pre-
pairing themselves.
Germany developed her own water
power plants. DR.. Cushman explained,
for making her supply of this indis-
pensable material in munitions making.
But DR.. Cushmans speech was not
wholly of war. He began by pointing
out the importance of an adequate
supply OF nitric acid for use in COM
mercial fertilizers and drew attention
to the fact that while our population
was increasing the yield of our food
supplies was diminishing.
Urges Water Power Plants.
This condition DR.. Cushman believes
can only be remedied by an increasing
use Of fertilizers which will return to
the soil the supply OF plant food which
the crops take from It. He stated that
for our present supply of nitrates for use
n making our commercial fertilizers and
in making our munitions OF war we
were now largely dependent ON Chile.
from whom in 1914 the United States
imported about $1S.0O0,000 worth.
In his opinion, these large impOrtations
could be avoided II we developed some OF
our great potential water power which
is at present going to waste and used
it in obtaining nitrogen from the at
mosphere.
The officer of the day yesterday was
Miss Frances williams, captain. Com
pany A. and one of her main duties was
to see that the new rule barring visitors
from streets was enforced by the trim
young sentinels. There was need of the
sentinels for a host of visitors had come
out to see friends and to see what had
happened after the rain of last night
But those who looked for signs of dis
order or evidences of mud were disap-
pointed. The streets were as dry as a
chip. and. as Adjutant Wilson said. had
it not been for the patter Of the drops on
the khaki roofs just above their heads
not one of the 200 sleepers would have
known that 1t was raining.

ANGER

Ever stop to consider how foolish
is anger-how useless?
Not only this, but anger weakens
and unnerves and renders US unfit
for battle, be that battle of the
brain or the Drawn.
Ever watch two professionals
spar? See the clean-cut exhibition
of skill and science as each re-
ceives and returns blow for blow.
But wait till one becomes angry.
Gone is all that fine science and in
its place is the brute lust OF battle.
Now see how terribly unprepared
is the angry man to stand before
his smiling adversary. Passion
driven and furious, he is an easy
mark, and his defeat is foretold
from the beginning. Again and
again the scientific blows Of his
cool and quiet opponent beat down
his guard and are driven to vital
parts of his person, and blind with
passion he is powerless for defense,
to say nothing of ofrense.
And as in the sparring ring, 50
in the larger circles Of life. The
man who can with Il smiling face
and stout heart meet the blows of
life is armed for the fray and vic
tory is his. The shafts of OPPOSE
ton, of envy, of malice, of hatred,
roll from him as the water from the
back of a duck. He is imperviouS
to attack. lie is unconquerable.
Does your temper give way I'M
der the annoyances and vexations
of life? Then stop-back up-get
Il fresh grip on yourself.
Remember, anger never conquers
any but the heart that harbors it.
Smile.

CHOOSING A HUSBAND

Husbands are not made to order
they just grow. To get a good one
you have to know him when you
see him. He may not look like the
man your fancy painted, vet you
will recognize in him the qualities
that go to make up the reliable, en-
terprising amiable man. As a, rule
women are not possessed of acute
business minds and are not as OBJ
servant as they might be. One af-
ter another they will fall into the
same open trap, just as though they
were blindfolded or were impelled
by some uncomfortable force. The
majority of them seem to think
they must marry, and all that is
necessary is to find a man that is
good looking or rich. The average
girl first takes a fancy to a pretty
man, and thinks and dreams of his
lovely hair, charming eyes, elegant
dress, divine mustache and dovelike
voice. She declares he is too sweet
for anything. This fever passes off
in time, but toe oftcn leaves a per-
verified taste. A dandy figure, swell
manners and gathering tongue are
apt to even outweigh a good heart,
industrious habits and moral worth.
Even after marriage visions of the
early ideal rise up to disturb the
serenity and tranquility of the do
nestle scene. Better such an ideal
had never been formed.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1916-11-08

should ever be permitted TO reach
maturity without being given the
ground work Of liberal education.
There can be no greater menace
to the safety of this republic than
that Of ignorance. It is the father
Of crime and the mother of treason.
OF late we have been deluged
with argument for national prepar-
edness. To our way of thinking the
most effective preparedness that
this nation could attain to would
be to see that every child within its
borders is lifted above the soul
paralyzing slough of ignorance. 1t
would be worth more than the en-
tire heavy ordnance of the Kaiser
or all the dreadnaughts of Britain.
"Vox populi, vox Del" is indeed
noble sentiment, but it is true
only in so far as the voice of the
people is the voice of an enlightened,
intelligent people. 1t were a mock
cry of an omniscient God to sup
pose otherwise.
Let us people awake to the
great fact that this land can never
be what the Creator intended it
should be until our people are all
intelligent, educated, well informed
citizens.
There are few social or political
problems of which education is not
the sure solution.

GRAND JURY REPORT

Following is a complete report Of
the Montgomery County Grand Jury
submitted to Judge Young the past
week:
To Hon. William A. Young,
We, the grand jury for the Octo-
Der term, 1916, would most respect
fully report that we have been in
session six days and have diligently
inquired into all violations of the
law of which we had knowledge or
about which we could obtain proof
and as a result have found and re-
turned into court IA indictments for
various crimes and offenses. 1t is
with pleasure, however, that we note
that very little disorder of any kind
is going on in our county and that
peace and quiet prevails to a mark
ed degree.
We would suggest, however to
the Sheriff and his deputies, to the
, Chief of Police and his deputies and
to all constables of the county, that
greater attention be paid by them to
violations of the automobile laws
of the state, relative TO licenses,
speed, traffic regulations, etc. We
believe that such violations should
be tried in the inferior courts while
the occurrences are fresh and the
facts easily obtained. 1t appears
that such laws have been spasmodi-
caiiy enforced, but we believe thai
the constant and rigorous enforce
ment of such statutes, will do much
to prevent accidents and cause a
greater respect for the law and the
rights of the travelling public. In
the belief that the officers named
will carry out this recommendation,
we have concluded to take no other
action upon the subject, but request
the court to charge the next Grand
Jury to investigate whether or not
the above recommendation has
been observed and if not that in
dictments be returned against those
who are derelict in their duty.
We would further report that we
examined the public buildings and
find them and the county records
well kept, except the Court House
clock, which we find is frequently
wrong. Since many people rely up
on such clock, we should recon-
mend that greater care be exercised
in seeing that accurate time is
kept at all times.
All of which is respectfully sub
mitted. r. C. Robinson,
Foreman.

Not infrequently we see mothers
who mentally and physically antago-
nize their daughters, but there is Il
spiritual law, as well as the law of
good taste, which should compel Il
daughter to be respectful and po-
lite to her mother, even if she can
not give her love or admiration.
