your blood and body tissues is regu-
lated upon a normal basis the irrita-
ton you speak of can absolutely be
removed il there is no organic trouble.
The total nitrogen eXcreted by your
urine should be Systematically estimat-
ed by the kjeldahl method, and this
should be measured with the total
nitrogen in the food which you are eat
ing. 1t is quite likely that there will
be found a nitrogen retention which
excess simply generates poison and this
latter poison acts upon your nerve
centers as an irritant just the same as
the toxic effect of morphine. cocaine
or of alcohol. Until this factor of elm
nation is thoroughly understood in
your case it is quite likely that your
nerve centers will continue to be de-
pressed. and be irritated. The best
counsel can give you would be to
have yourself thoroughly checked up
by the accurate methods Of the chemi-
cal laboratory SO that the food you
eat goes into production 100 per cent
strength and energy instead of only so
or so per cent strength and energy,
from the depressing waste matters that
circulate about through the blood
stream.

TALKS ON HEALTH
(By Donald McCaskey, NJ. d.
Ma,.;ns Old Worry. d Your sessts,

Masking Old Worry Dc Your eesstsr.
You may be timid and easily fright
ened. You may become so physically
and mentally worried that nothing but
discord and future trouble looms up
ahead Of you.
II at such time you will realize that
your imagination is holding the whip
hand over you and coupled with the
other human quality. fear, Is running
AWAY with your chariot. as II were, you
will then be able to put on the brakes
and bring reason to your rescue.
There are just three things for YOU
to do.
First, do your worries have any
cause at all? This point should first
be settled once for all.
The second point Is. your worries
may be the result of cause which
is greatly magnified.
This point should, likewise. in your
own mind be clearly decided upon and
settled at once.
The third thing to decide is What
Is a fair and just estimator" This
latter is the balance wheel. 1t comes
between the two extremes of no cause
at all for your worries on the one
hand. and the magnified cause on the
other.
Ask yourself. therefore, when you
are in a worrying mood, rs THE
CAUSE OF My WORRY REALLY
AND EXACTLY AS SUPPOSE-1S
1T A RIGHT CAUSE-AM JUST
AND HONESTLY ESTIMATING MY
OWN MIND THE ANTICIPATED
CONSEQUENCES THAT ARE CAUS-
ING MY WORRYING?".
Don't let fear and imagination crowd
out of your life the impartial and fair
minded quality of reason. Make your
worries boost you on into a stronger,
healthier and more courageous frame
of mind.

PROHIBITION BENEFICIAL
Mendelson Tells Of Effect Of
Dry Law on Business
in Denver.

- ri
business men Of Denver that the ef.
fects Of prohibition are beneficial and
am convinced that IL the vote wa.
to be taken, again. there would be q
much larger majority in favor Of
ousting the seloons than there wal
at the deciding election said Han,
Mendelson. Of Denver. Colorado, ex.
pert agriculturtst for the Great West.
.ern Sugar company, In an Interview
yesterday. ss s@.
OF course. the general business
boom discounted the bad effects OF
prohibition. for 1t has its bad effects
but the improvement has been suf-
ficaent to make itself felt above the
prosperity Of the times.
Mr. Mendelson said the groceries had
increased by 80 and the business OF the
dry goods and other stores had in
creased proportionally. The effects
OF prohibition were not as keenly felt
IN Colorado as state as they will be
In Montana. he said, for the reason
that many OF the country places had
been dry long before and the transit
ton had been gradual.
Traffic BY Auto.
Mr.. 4Mendelson said r1at the liquor
traffic Into Denver at the present time
Is carried on mostly by auto trucks
running between that place and Chey-
enne. Wyoming. The legislature is at
present. taking steps toward stopping
this practice by the passage Of more
stringent laws.
Better Homes.
A very noticeable effect Of prohibi-
ton, continued Mr.. Mendelson. is to
he found in the fact that large num-
Der of the cheap workingmens homes
are vacant. while the higher class
dwelling places. which had been va
mand. The pay envelopes of the men,
undiminished by the toll OF the sa-
looms are providing more comforts for
the families.
Not all the saloons of the town have
gone out OF business. said the Denver
sAAAAAs Aooltc VI NllCIIL uSiSt CIIttuseu
into delicatessen stores and restau-
rants. One such former saloon which
used to run a restaurant In connec-
tiOn with the bar. has now empha-
sized the restaurant department with
such success that It has been found
necessary to double the working staff.
THE prosperity of Colorado has
been greatly increased by the revival
Of mining within the state, especially
with regard to the tungsten mining.
but the fact that prohibition has. con-
tributed much toward this prosperity
Is recognized by the people to such an
extent that the recent proposed
amendment to allow the SAFE Of beer
within the state was beaten by a large
majority" said Mr.. Mcndelson at the
the conclusion Of the interview.
