RED BLOOD AND BIG MUSCLE

The full-blooded man or woman
usually has large muscles. Pale peo-
pie are ordinarily thin; their muscles
are small.
Muscles are red not only because Of
the blood in them but because they
contain hemoglobin, thesame substance
that gives the red color to the blood.
And it is this hemoglobin that carries
oxygen in the blood and stores it up in
the muscles.
Well oXidized blood is necessary if
we would have strong muscles. In fact
oxygen is the great supporter OF life.
Oxygen is used up when we work.
When a set OF muscles are active, as
those OF the back when we lift some
thing, their oxygen is used and unless
the blood is rich and red with oxygen
bearing hemoglobin those muscles ache
If you are pale and your back aches
don't blame your kidneys. Try build
ing up the blood with DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. These pills cause an in
crease OF hemoglobin in the blood and
so enable it to carry more oxygen.
There is renewed life and ambition.
Everywhere that the new blood goes it
carries vigor and this tonic treatment
is the one thing that most rundown,
debilitated people need.

New York. March 2.-There was a
reaction in the food situation yester-
day and dealers who a few days ago
bought potatoes and onions and Of
fered them at high prices were willing
to sell at loss to themselves, it was
announced by Joseph Hartigan com
missioner Of weights and measures.
The onion market, the commissioner
said. is acompletely demoralized, y
dealers who bought at from $40 to
Sl2 per 100 pounds now offering them
at from IS to ST. The retail price of
potatoes dropped to six cents a pound
compared with eight and nine q week
age.
Commissioner Hartigan asserted he
had received an offer from two Paci-
fc coast states to supply large guam
titles of potatoes at four cents a
pound. Owing to the continuance of
a boycott against live poultry by
housewives on the East side, few
sales were made yesterday, although
it was said % carloads were received.

Two Cents An Acre.

The Danish West Indies be-
came territory of the United
States Saturday. Alaska passed
under our flag on March 80,
1867. Fifty years and one day
separated the two annexations.
For Alaska we paid 81, 200,O 900,
for the Danish Islands $25, 000,-
900. The sum we paid for Alas
ka was thought to be too much /;
in fact, most Americans did not
want it at any price. But Rus
STA needed money, and Russia
had stood by us in the war just
closed, had been a powerful fac
tor in preventing interference
from other European nations,
and we bought the supposedly
barren and worthless territory
as a way Of partly repaying our
debt Of gratitude, and for no
other reason. Thus did Alaska,
as Secretary Lane puts it, edge
her way into a protesting and
inhospitable democracy"
Since then she has brought us
over three-quarters of a billion
dollars. Her story is just begin
ming. She is still practically I'M
inhabited, for she is one fifth as
large as the United States and
has only $4,000 population, but
in 1916 she contributed $780,
100000 to our trade. She is
beginning to mine coal, and is es-
timated to have one hundred
and fifty billion tons of it.
Though her gold fields have
never yet been adequately work
ed, she mines $4,000, 900 a year
already, and $285,OOO 900 has
been taken out since the early
eighties. Last year nearly $4O,-
600, 1000 of copper was mined.
The fish caught in Alaskan
waters since the purchase came
to $780, 1000. "Furbearinq

AVOID FADS IN EATING
HEALTH EXPERT ADVISES
We Should Eat All Sorts Of
Foods, DR.. Nj. p. Ravenel
Declares.

'Fads in eating should be
avoided" DR.. M. P. RaveneI of
the department of preventative
medicine of the University of
Missouri advises. Generally
speaking, a mixed diet gives us
the best production of proteins,
fats and carbohydrates, all of
which are necessary for our
well being. Especially at this
time when food stufs are so ex-
pensive, one should be able to
eat all kinds of foods.
"There is no age at which a
person can not acquire the habit
of liking all sorts of foods. Even
an adult can overcome a preju-
dice, or even a dislike for certain
foods, or a food with which he
has become disgusted because,
perhaps, he was made sick by
it from overeating. Food habits
are more easily taught, however,
in early life. Every boy and
girl should be taught to eat at all
sorts of foods. This enables
them a great variety Of food,
which insures a better balanced
ration. It enables them to enjoy
travel and sightseeing more.
Travel is spoiled for many people
through foolish food habits ac-
quired in youth.
"In illness the chances for re-
eovery are enhanced by being
able to take all kinds of nourish-
ment. Physicians are frequent
Ily embarrassed in treating pa
tients who have strong food
fancies which they think they
are unable to overcome.
variety in food insures bet
ter appetite. Monotony in food
is apt to lessen appetite. 1t is
we'll known that ~appetites, as
well as digestion are largely
psychical. 1t has been shown
that when prisoners are fed or
a monotonous diet, even wher
that diet is ordinarily good, they
are affected with loss of appe.
tite, vomiting and other digest.

Constipation and Indigestion.

These are twin evils. Persons
suffering from indigestion are
often troubled with ~constipa-
ton. Mrs. Robert Allison, Mat
toon, ILL.,, writes that when she
first moved to Nation she was
a great sufferer from indigest-
ion and constipation. Food dis
tressed her and there was a feel
ing like a heavy weight pressing
on her stomach and chest. She
did not rest we'll at night, and
felt worn out a good part of the
time. One bottle Of Chamber
lain's Tablets corrected this
trouble so that she has since felt
like a different person.

There is an old saying that

and thereby enable it to effect a

usually required. This is par
ticularly true of colds. Cham
