SOLDIERS WILLS ARE
HARD NUTS TO CRACK

Berlin.-Questions OF the validity OF
soldiers wills, generally made in the
field and often in the form of letters
home. have given the civil courts some
hard nuts to crack. In more than one
case the perfectly patent intention of
the devisor has had to be ignored be-
cause he did not know how to draw up
a binding document.
Two such cases haze just been
passed upon, and the %verdicts have
been opposed to each other through
sheer accident. The first is that of Il
soldier who wrote from the trenches
of France to his ~fiancec, telling her
that if he should fall he wanted her to
nave one-half of his property. He sent
a second letter to her parents, which
he signed your Son Fritz" The first
was signed Your true Fritz"
BY accident rather han by design,
ne wrote out in one of the letters his
full name and address to indicate how
letters to him should be made out. The
court held hat this accidental inser-
ton of the full name legally established
the identity of the testator, as his sig
natures did not, and, therefore, upheld
the validity of the letter-win.
A similar case went the other way
because the letter was signed only by
a Christian name. A mother sued in
behalf of her daughter for half of a
fallen soldiers estate, on the basis of q
letter signed only Heinrich" and not
dated from any definite place. Though
there seemed to be no moral doubt Of
Helnrich's intentions, the court ruled
against his fiancee.

Spiral Skating.
From Outing,


The spiral need not be skated on the
same edge by both skaters. The gentle
man can skate on the outside edge
backward and the lady on the outside
edge forward or vice versa.
We suggest the following: Gentle
man on right backward outside edge,
lady on left forward outside edge,
either keeping the lady's left hand with
his right, or holding her around the
waist in dancing position.
All the elementary figures can be
combined in many "a Spirals need
not be skated in the original form they
can also be done with changes of edges
and threes.
After having completed the spiral to
the point where the speed is nearly fin
ished the waltz is a pretty continuation.
There are many waltzes. The posi-
ton Of the partners in the waltz is the
same as the one taken by a couple on
the ball room floor. 1t is skated to
music and the waltz which is most
commonly danced and contains the
easiest steps is called the once back
waltz" The old fashioned name for
the step is "the Dutch roll" This Is
an ordinary forward three skated on
the outside edge on the right foot,
shortly after the turn. the left food
is put down and the skater continues
on the left backward outside edge.

What is "Arteriosolerosis?
From the st. Louis Post-Dispatch.

AN Nv ASohA l.
The word "sclerosis' gives us our
clew. 1t is a Greek word. meaning
hard" Advertisements is one of the
commonest chronic decays or degen-
GRAFTON in the body, including a. grad
breakign down of the tiny muscles
in the walls of the arteries. with hard
ening and loss of elasticity.
Our arteries are the first organs to
the changes of advancing age,
They are very elastic tubes, their ma
terial being compared to rubber, and
They are made in three layers-the out
N. middle and inner-and it is the in
her one which suffers his change and
decay.
Being elastic, the arteries dilate with
each heart beat. thus reducing the
shock TO the organs which the force
pump action would give if the blood
We're conveyed in rigid tubes.
In time, as we age. these hard work.
ing arteries grow weak and lose their
elasticity. like the tubes do in an old
steam boiler.
Ii they become very weak and brittle
they burst and apoplexy is the result.
Isie most frequent causes Of this dis
ease are. first. overWork, bodily or
mental. particularly the former; and.
second. the poisoned condition OF the
blood produced by infections-such as
blood poisoning, tuberculosis and
HiiSIitS ulseaSe-anu third, OVereatlng
and the use Of alcohol.
These last two causes act nv nro.
duc1ng poisons or toxins in the blood
which weaken the muscles of the blood
vessels. Overeating tends to arterio-
sclerosis. and we are said to dig our
graves with our teeth. The pa~ralyzing
effect that these causes produce upon
the kidneys results in piling up in the
body an excessive amount of waste and
other self made poisons.
How may we keep IL arteries soft?
The answer includes the Whole cues

feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces Of Jad

take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
