list and food expert, to the mothers who
attended his lecture at the FOrsythe
dental infirmary the, other afternoon,
says the Boston Post. Today we are
eating too much brand and too little
bran," he added.
Zone -four is just as good as another
and 1t is ridiculous to pay an extra
dollar or two to get some particular
brand" he continued. "White flour.
regardless of brand and price, is de-
v;talized and demineralized food prod

on sale at the grocery stores because
no one asks for them.
'"rhere Is only one food that you,
can live upon alone and that is milk.
If you mix whole wheat products with
milk you can live forever. We have
failed to realize what splendid food
can be found in Indian corn meal. We
do not know how to live.
"Women are blindly following a vi
ctOus fashion in wearing high-heeled
stilts that ruin their health and make
them unable to become mothers. The
mothers Of this country are eating
white bread, cake and ice cream, and
then expect their children to be born
healthy.
d "Candy never should be fed to chill
dren. The child does not have sweet
tooth until it Is acquired by being fed
sweet stuffs. No wonder its teeth de-

women use malts and make every eff
fort to put on flesh before motherhood.

Let Clocks Alone.

We wish persons would cease max
ing us and others impatient about small
things. With a shortage of the tobacco
crop and a threatened baseball strike
we have quite enough to occupy our
minds without bothering about this
nonsense called the daylight saving
plan." Some European put the clocks
ahead an hour over there and now
few in this country ask that the same
thing be done. 1t will get people out OF
bed earlier and let them work in the
cool of the morning, say these folks.
What difference does it make what
time 1t is If one is ready to get out OF
bed? The day begins with the rise of
the sun, and all foolish persons can get
up at that time by setting alarm clocks
after consulting almanacs. But there
are many persons who find morning
sleep good for them; wherefore, they
prefer to lie abed, and putting clocks
an hour ahead would not help. The
sun fixes the time, anyway, and when
1t is six o'clock no man on earth can
make it seven by merely saying 1t Is,
Neither can clocks and watches. Let
well enough alone.-New York Tele-

Jobs for Blind Soldiers.

It is an established fact that the

and sensitiveness of touch their fellow

French, with their usual forethought,
have taken this into consideration in
planning for occupations for French
soldiers after the war. French scien-

decided that the blind soldiers will

Addition to Navy. Strength.

Several advantageous features have
been incorporated in a new kite balloon
lately constructed for use ut the navy
aeropautical station Mt Pensacola, Fla.
The balloon is described, with illustra-
tions, in the Popular Mechanics Maga-
zine. One of the noticeable differences
in It's design from observation craft
Of the sort employed in European
countries is the total absence of the
sausagelike rubber bag at the posterior
end. An additional feature which is
somewhat distinctive is the provision
of an air flap or pocket on the under
side, near the middle. This is held open
by guy lines extended from the free
edge to the observers basket swung
far below and is understood to give
the device, with the help of the tail
cups, considerable stability. To facilt
tate the handling Of the balloon n reel
accommodating 1000 feet of cable and
operated by power transmitted through
n flexible shaft from the rear wheel Of
n motorcar, Is employed. The envelope
is 81 feet in length and has a maxi
mum diameter of % feet.

MoLDs THAT FIT THE FEET
Invention Of Shoemaker Expert En-
abIes Even the Badly Afflicted
to Walk With Ease.

Work Of truly remarkable character
is being done by shoemaker-an or
thopedic expert-of New York, in the
fitting of shoes to those who find diff
ficulty in walking in ordinary footgear,
says Popular Mechanics Magazine. For
ordinary cases a series Of Inner foot
molds" has been prepared, in sizes to
fit various feet. These resemble or
dinary insoles in general appearance.
but the upper surfaces are uneven,
having indentations and projections
that insure a contact anatomically per-
feet. for the sOles of the feet. The
edges are curved slightly upward.
When mOlds are found in which the
feet rest in comfort, supporting the
weight of the body in perfect balance,
these molds are worn inside shoes Of
a suitable size. The feet then rest on
a sort Of cup-shaped. cushion and are
kept from pressing unevenly against
hard, fiat surfaces such as are found
in ordinary shoes: In footwear thus
fitted, the weight Of the body is equally
distributed to the parts Of the feet
best able to sustain it, all Of the foot
surface being used. A normal condi-
ton for the feet is thus made pos
sible. and the bones, muscles and liga-
ments are permitted to move natural
ly. Some extraordinary cases have also
been successfully fitted with footwear
after walking had become burden
or u seeming impossibility.

THE COURAGE OF A MAGAZINE

Have you ever stopped to think
what queer town this would be
how inconvenient for you-if there
were no stores here? Without the
stores there couldn't even be town..
Well, the cnly way to make stores
possible is to give them patronage.
We are not losirg our heads over
the mail-order danger, nor do we
think it one of the seven deadly sins
to buy something out of town occa-,
sionally. But ives do maintain that
every citizen of Central City should
make it his or her practice to buy
of the merchants who are helriDg 10
pay our taxes, who are employing cur
own friends and neightors. who are
building up the town, who are indi-
rectly making it possible for all of
US to make cur li,irg!
We are gratified to learn that one
of the great national magazines. and
he greatest. in the women's field,
has decided to exclude all mail-order
advertising from it's columns and
thus cooperate with local merchants
everywhere. That this is a proper
step can he seen by looking at the
facts. The magazine mentioned, The
Delineator is sold locally through The
Golden Rule D. G. Co., who also sell
many Of the goods advertised in it's
columns. Naturally, the store own
ers prefer that the advertising which
they promote shall help them, which
is Gully fair. The Delineator recog-
nizes this. ard, in spite of loss in
revenue amounting to hundreds of
Thousands Of dollars, has made the
sacrifice in the interest Of local deal
ers.
But the issue is broader than this.
A store such as Golden Rule CO..

essity. Now IL We all should divert
a part of our trade to far-distant con-

meager stock, and would have to
realize far bigger profits on the
things we had to buy there. So we
congratulate the Golden Rule d. G.
Co., and the Delineator on it's recent
move, which recognizes that. in a
brad way. retail stores are the leg
ioal channels fer distributing goods
and that to trade at home" pro-
notes the best interests Of all. You
tan do your part to help this town
by giving your preference to these
mere hants who show an interest in
the town ard to that magazine whit h

dermine us.

Since the great European war be-
