Big changes in the way we live do not come all at once says R. C. Greth, manager of the Harmon Motor company, local dealers in the Stude- bake cars. We pass from one era into another without knowing that the transition is going on. but once the changes are made We cannot go back from faiI, fat and forty, to the slender days of youth
 Stand on Michigan avenue, Chica- go, any time, any day, between seven c clock in the morning and midnight and you will see a steady stream of automobiles two abreast going in both directions at an average speed of twenty or twenty five miles an hour, each car carrying an average of three or four people if a touring car, or a good size double horse load if it is a commercial car.
 ~Supposing We had i'd handle the traffic on Micigan avenue today with a horse and carriage at six or eight miles an hour, and commercial traffic with plodding two horse teams at four Inlies an hour. That means that we would have to have a street five times as wide. or five stories high, or five sabWays. You could not take this traf- IlC OH MlcIllSdn avenue ana put II on Wabash, State or any other parallel streets, because they too are crowded with traffic like Michigan avenue.
 Supposing the big Chicago depart ment stores had to go back to the day of the horse and wagon at four to six miles an hour and a load radius of seven or eight miles, where today they use commercial cars at a run mi nj DFtVr carrying two or three times the load over three or four times the distance.
 "What is true of Chicago is true of every other city. The horse is being naturally eliminated something better has taken it's place Machine power is superior. It not only has ten times the efficiency hut alsn len

Orange Blossom Farms.

A minor trade which has been badly
hit is the orange blossom industry.
Weddings are simple affairs nowadays
and there is not much demand for the
fragrant white flowers. Practically all
the orange blossom that reaches Lon
don is grown in the south of France,
a few miles back from the coast line,
in the sheltered valleys Of the Alpes
Maritimes.
There is, in ordinary times, always
demand for the blooms, for the per-
fume manufac turers are ready buyers
if the other market should fail. These
plantations are handed on from one
generation to another in the same fam
lily, and there would be small encour-
agement for rival planters as the trees
do not yield much in the way Of 4
floral crop until they are fair age

Kidney i e Co.
BY DIR. III WArsoN)

The kidneys and the skin work in
harmony. They're companions, the
skin being the second partner. IF we
are anxious to keep well and preserve
the vitality Of the kidneys and, also,
free the blood from noxious elements,
we must pay special attention to a
good action of the skin and to see that
the kidneys are flushed so as to elimi-
nate the poisons from the blood.
Sweating, by hard work or in bath,
at least once a week, helps to keep the
skin and kidneys in good condition.
Flush the kidneys by drinking plenty
Of pure water with meals and between
meals. Occasionally obtain at the drug
store Anuric, double strength, which
will help flush the kidneys and the in
testines. You will find that Anuric is
many times more active than lthia
and that it dissolves uric acid as hot
water does sugar.

Says Corns Lift Out
Without Any Pain

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind Of a corn can shortly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
will apply on the corn a few drops Of
freezone, says a Cincinnati authority.
At little cost one can get a small bot
tie Of freeZone at any drug store, which
will positively rid ones feet of every
corn or callus without pain or sore
ness or the danger Of infection.
This new drug is an ether compound,
and dries the moment it is applied and
does not inflame or even irritate the
surrounding skin. Just think! You
can lift off your corns and calluses
now without bit Of pain or soreness.
If your druggist hasn't freezone he can
easily get a small bottle for you from
his wholesale drug house.-adv.

A crowded. worklnen congregated be-
fore the riksdag building in Stockholm
recently to emphasize their demand
for the stoppage of al exports Of food
for a better distribution Of foodstuffs
and for an immediate commercial
agreement with Great Britain. Pre-
mler Swartz had finished speech in
forming the two chambers Of parlia-
ment Of the Swedish food situation,
and the crowd called for Hjalmar
Branting, the socialist leader, who left
the session Of the lower chamber to,
speak to the demonstrators. From the,
steps of the riksdag he promised that
he and his associates would continue
to work for the realization of the work.
ingmen's just demands. Mayor Lind:
hagen and Editor Hanson, J member
OF the socialist executive committee,
also spoke to the demonstrants. The
assemblage was orderly throughout.
Hunger demonstrations are reported
from several points in Sweden. More
than 5000 laborers formed procession
and visited the city hall. Twelve hun
dred persons are said to have taken
part in a similar demonstration in
bookkeeping. Prime Minister Swartz
submitted to the riksdag a detailed
statement on food conditions in Sweden
and explained the necessity for the
recent reduction Of daily rations. He
said the ration had been adjusted
first on the calculation that $4,000
tons Of rye and wheat would be avail
able the first Of the year. An inven-
tory showed, however, only 100000
tons from which 10000 tons would
have to be taken for seed. The pre-
mier said 10000 tons had been pur-
chased abroad, but that it was uncer-
tain whether or when it could be
brought in. Throughout the delivery of
the speeches in the riksdag the crowds
outside were quiet, but occasional
cries for a republic and revolution
were to be heard. This demonstration
has caused an enormous sensation in
Stockholm and rumors of a revolution
are persistent throughout the country.
Fresh demonstrations of a far more
serious character are expected May /.

Dissatisfaction with the size of the
bread ration, the shortage in many
kinds Of provisions, and high prices
generally resulted in a strike of la
borers in all the shops in the town Of
Vestervik. The laborers quit work
at noon and, forming procession, WIS.,
tied municipal authorities, who prom
ised the workers supplementary
bread cards and reduction in the
price of milk and food. At Karlstad,
400 woman factory workers assembled
at the city hall and demanded an in
crease in the bread allowance. The
shortage in many articles Of food daily
grows more apparent Potatoes cost

dealers are reducing the milk allow

DEN MARK.

The earnings Of the Danish steam
ship companies were announced at the
Copenhagen exchange March 5. Every
body was watching the figures, for it
was known that the profits were very
large in some cases. Denmark had
made 100000 and distributed 60 per
gent as dividends. Norden could boast
of $2,42O,OOO, giving the stockholders
10 per cent, and Dannebrog, Carl and
CORN gave 20 per cent each.
The Berlingske Tidende says that
among the jewels Of the German en-
press which have Just been sold in
,Copenhagen was a magnificent dia-
Enond necklace, a gift Of the late J.
Pierpont Morgan. The necklace con-
SISTED Of 375 large and small brilliants.
Another jewel was a bow-shaped dia-

People passing the Feldborg planta-
'tion last winter often noticed that a
fox walked along the road few feet
behind them almost like dog. The
difference was, that the poor beast was
$50 hungry that he did not know what
to do to get bite to eat. Crows would
Ioften come close up to the houses look
ing for scraps of food.
A Berlin dispatch says a Danish
physician offered $25O,O0O to the Ber-
lin municipal council with which to
send 10000 Berlin children to Den
mark. The children would be kept in
the northern kingdom for the duration
lof the war and six months thereafter.
fThe offer was accepted.
The coal famine compelled the
Danes to cut down the railway traffic
very materially. The passenger traffic
was hardest hit, being reduced to one
third of it's former volume. It is esti-
mated that the reduction will save
5000 tons of coal a month.
Over $4,000 pounds of tobacco was
raised in Denmark in 1916 The Danish
factories bought the whole crop at a
price Of about 20 cents a pound.
Many Danish distilleries have been
closed, and the result is that hundreds
of persons are out Of work.
