GET BACK TO NATURE.
Live the Simple Life and Win Health
and Happiness.

ana 1appineSs.
The movement to return to nature
and simple life is the solution offered
to the high cost of living problem, but
health experts and enthusiasts have
found it to be the only way of right
living or healthful living known today
They have adopted it as safe road to
health. They say that return to ma
ture means good digestion, sound sleep,
a clear head, placid mind, content
ment and joy to be alive.
But first, they say, it means getting
close to nature-living out of doors as
much as possible by working, playing
and resting in the open air and, above
all, by sleeping in the open air. "Out-
door sleeping is the best life preserver
known" 1t means also going to the
garden and orchard for your bill of
fare-tomatoes, lettuce, celery, spinach
turnips, beans, corn. peas, melons, ber
ries, apples. peaches. plums and all
other fruits and green stuffs untouched
by fire.
The real value of adopting the sim
pie life, according to the health ex-
perts, lies in the pleasure we find in
living it. To do it grudgingly or with
out knowing and appreciating its bene-
fits we botch it and fail, but to love
health more than appetite and seek it is
to have health, comfort, efficiency and a
long life. Start the simple life-begin
it today" is the motto of this health
movement.-North Carolina State Board
of Health Bulletin.

TWO EXPEDITIONS FAILED,
The Neptune, Commanded by Captain
Bartlett, Will Start For Arctic In
July-Bartlett Famous From His
Connection With the Explorations Of
Peary and Stefansson.

Peary and Stefansson.
New York.-For the third time a re-
lief ship is being fitted out to go for
and bring back Donald Macmillan, the
explorer who went to the arctic in 1913
to look for the new continent which
Rear Admiral Peary thought he had
discovered several years before anc
which he had named Crocker Land
Macmillan sent back word in 1915 that
he had made sledge trip of $50 miles
across the ice in the direction of the
supposed continent and had found no
trace of land, and many scientists have
since supposed that what Rear Admiral
Peary saw was an extraordinarily WV
id mirage.
According to message received from
the Shetland islands, the Macmillan
party are safe, and Bartlett will go
north to bring them back.
The new expedition will be command
ed by Captain Robert A. Bartlett, ia.
nous from his connection with the ex.
plorations of Peary and Stefansson,
and will sail from st. Johns, New
foundland, in the first week Of July

Some hustle little freight, shoe horses, do a lit He painting and then do piano tuning on the side to make lends meet" know for fact that there are in this territory individuals claiming to be piano tuners who never attempted to tune a piano before coming here. A sample of that type tried the other day to tune a thousand dollar piano with monkey wrench. If he had taken sledge hammer the same re- suits would have been obtained.
 It does then follow in view of the foregoing facts that when it comes to Patronizing Home Industry that An derson should not have fair show of Piano business both in tuning and the sale of pianos.
