as not only justified. but adds that we

could do that without suffering any

Think of what small thing We are
asked to do in comparison with the
great object at stake-the winning OF
peace. This nation has a great adj
vantage In its food resources and IT
ought to make the best CT it at a, time
like this. There are a variety of
wholesome and nutritious foods which
will not bear expectation or keep in
condition for supplying camps. and By
reasonable self-denial and regard for
what is at stake in tho war, we can
get on comfortably at home and spare
food enough to meet the wants OF the
Allies. This applies to meat as we'll
as wheat. Administrator Hoover
states that while before the war our
average export Of beef to the Allies
was less than 100000 pounds a
month, in the last two years it has
averaged 22,0O0,000. and they are now
sending vessels to load an average OF
7O.000,000 pounds for the next three
months.

UP TO GERMAN PEOPLE

The uprising Of German labor
against the militaristic government
which now rules has an echo in the
referendum being conducted by the
Chamber Of Commerce of tue United
States with reference to our postwar
trade with Germany. which will hinge
largely on whether the German govern
ment becomes in reality responsible
instrument controlled by the German
people. II not, it is the opinion OF many
that the American people will have to
enter an economic combination against
Germany for self-defense. The Boston
Chamber Of Commerce. which favors
tho referendum, contends II the war
we're to end with the present govern
ment Of Germany in control. much OF
the value of trade to Germany would
be turned into common treasury for
the furtherance OF imperial and MILL
tary ends. The United States. in COM
mon with other nations, could not al
ford to do anything which would ad-
vance Ger1uany's commercial success
so long as 4 military autocracy had
the power to turn that business sue
cess into weapon against them.
; There is direct evidence that the
business men OF Germany are today
thinking of this waf not ONLY in terms
of present military results, but in
terms Of future business success as
well, because recent dispatches, and
information from other sources, indi'
! cate that increasing attention-is being
paid by the German newspapers to
: the growing difficulties Of re-establish-
! ing German foreign trade after the
war. It was also maintained that evil
| dence is increasing that German busi-
ness men are regarding with appre.
hension the possibility that German
! goods will find no market after the
! war in the ports of her present
! enemies.
II the German business interests can
be brought to thinking in terms other
than those instilled by the deceiving
Junker government, they will join
with the present labor demands for
popular representation in the govern
ing authority Of the empire. II the
spirit of this referendum could be COM
municated to them in any way 1t Is
believed they would readily see the
way to avoid the American suggestion
OF a practical boycott, and that 1t
would be TO their interests to. act &C
! cordingly. They should be impressed
with the distinctive feature Of this
referendum which is a recognition that
under normal circumstances, business
kbovcotts and other artificial interior
ence with economic laws are unsound
and in the long run Improbable to al
concerned; and recognition that, II
the German government is made re.
sponsible to the German people. the
| rest of the world can be measurably
sure that German prosperity will not
be used by German military ambition.
Such knowledge ought to go great
ways in increasing the strength of
the present leaven working in Ger
many that Kaiserism is impossible on
earth.

HeC0ro.
native American, Mr.. Sheridan, who
was born in Sterling, Illinois, has
lived In Chicago since 1888.
For twenty years he was manager
OF the shipping department OF the big
packing plant of Morris & Company at
the Stock Yards. In 1912 he was ap-
pointed deputy clerk OF the Criminal
court and was elected member OF the
Cook county board of assessors in the
fall election of that year. In this
capacity he served two years as sec.
rotary of the board and two years as
chairman, and during his entire term
his course has been guided by an eye
single to the welfare of the public,
fair play to the taxpayers duty. He
now holds the position Of chairman
of the board Of assessors.
Mr.. Sheridan received his education
In Sterling, Illinois, where he grad.
uated from the public high schools.
He afterwards attended business col
lege and thus equipped he started out
to face the world, and in the worlds
battle has met with great success.
Mr.. Sheridan is member Of the
Knights of Columbus, the Maccabees,
the Loyal Order of Moose, the Irish
| Fellowship Club, the Englewood Pa
triotic League, the Soldiers Relief So
ciety and is an auxiliary member of
the State Council of Defense. He Is,
as we have said, a Democrat from the
ground up, and is now Democratic
ward committeeman from the Thirty
first ward, He was member OF eX'
emption board No. ~ until January
~, 1918, when Governor Lowden ac'
cepted his resignation which Mr.
Sheridan was obliged to tender so he
' could attend TO his official duties as
member of the board OF assessors.
Mr.. Sheridan has the distinction OF
being complimented upon the fact
| that his board of exemption had not
cost the government a single penny
for anything while he was member
OF that body, as he furnished the
clerk-hire, room, light, heat and
everything else pertaining to the
work.
AS stated at the outset, Mr.. Sheri
dams term expires in the coming fall
He is a candidate, within the lines OF
the Democratic organization, and if he
is nominated for reelection (Which Is
a certainty he will undoubtedly be
reelected He is a man of quiet ant
unassuming ways, and his candidacy

Chiropractic-What It Is.

Chiropractic (Kiro-prak-tik) is the
Science of locating the cause Of dis
ease and the Art of removing 1t by
adjusting the spine, which relieves
pressure on the nerves and allows
natures life-spark, or nerve energy, to
flow freely to and from the brain.
The cause OF disease, as the Chiro'
practor finds 1t, is subluXation OF one
or more of the vertebrate which dee
crease the size of the opening through
which the spinal nerves pass, and
impinge or press them, hence shut Off
portion of the nerve supply to the
organs or parts, and the result will be
disease, deranged functional activity.
A normal nerve supply to any organ
or part Of the human body generates
normal function and maintains health.
In adjusting the vertebrae to re-
lease the pressure, the Chiropractor
uses and needs nothing but his hands,
The whole object of his work is com.
pleted when this pressure Is removed.
Nature does the curing. In some cases
daily adjustments are necessary for a
| time. In other cases, however, three
adjustments a week will bring splen-
did results, The Chiropractor should
be the Judge as to the frequency of
| the adjustments.
