REST, fresh air, good food" have
become well recognized as essentials
in the effort TO Danish pulmonary tu-
berculosls and DIR. J. Il. Byers. Il Ca-
madam physician, now adds a fourth
work" The tasks must be carefully
adapted to the patients conditions and
desires. Even patients confined to bed
seem to progress more rapidly when
allowed some interesting finger work
for part of the day and, contrary to
expectation. relapses have been less
than two per cent among persons thus
treated. In year only one small
hemorrhage has followed exposure to
the workshop. Aside from the cheer
ing effects of occupation, it is stated
that the vocational training has not
yet made q man wage Garner in a
new field, but that it has started new
lines of thought, and stimulated not a
few recovered patients to improve
themselves and become useful citizens.
Special industries are being arranged
for cripples leaving the war hospitals,
Perhaps in the near future something
to do may be planned for the sick and
convalescent in some definite way.

Your Finer Prints.

A good many people can change and
disguise their handwriting so that no
one could possibly recognize it. But
there is one autograph that none of us
can change-namely, that made by the
prints of the fingers. Every member
of the human race has certain delicate
markings on his fingers by which his
identity can always be established
These marks never change. The lines
are the same at seventy as at baby
hood. only grow larger as we grow old
err. The highly intelligent person has
more of detail IN his finger marks thar
one of less mental power. Women
have finer markings on their finger tips
than men, and those of negroes are
coarser than those of whites.

WAYsIDE INN IN sM0NG0IlA
caravansaries Have Undsraens pttle
/ Change During the Progress
4 of the CenturiesssssA sA

The inn Tin Mongolia) was g typical
northern Inn, such as soon became IA
miliar to us. On three sides or the
courtyard animals were feeding IN
open mud stalls, as they fed In Beth
lehem nineteen hundred years ago. On
the fourth side mems quarters were
scarcely different from those of the
animals. except in being closed. Our
camp beds had been put up in the Inn
yard, and we ate our evening meal
under matched caves. Wool caravans
had driven in and stood bulkily blot
ting the dusk, pointing toward the
gateway for start in the first white
dawn.
Chinese interiors are the finest Rem
brandts in the world, and this inn was
a particularly mellow, ingrauatlng
study, Olive Gilbreath writes III ASA.
From the open door of the Chinese
stove streamed a rudy light, when
threw into deep shadow the broad
k'ang where men sat or squatted over
pipes end bowls of tea. Our carriers
had joined the group about the f1lcker-
ing candles and in the yellow hght
their faces shone out like old por-
traits-strong, simple. oriental.
saisen player began his plaintive note,
and from the inn door poured a steady
babble of voices. On every side the
plain swept menacingFy in from the
horizon threatening to blot out the one
infinitesimal point of life daring to vlo-
late its solitude. But still the note
of the saisen player sounded ana
above the walls of the compound shone
the deep oriental stars. 1t was vaga-
bonds night.
Our cots had been made up in the
courtyard: consequently we opened
our eyes with the dawn. The wool
caravans had already disappeared; we
saw them. soft blurs in the half-light,
| descending the road toward China
which we had climbed the evening be
fore. We paid our inn bill-14 tung-
ties (about ten cents gold) for five
| travellers. two servants, three carriers,
two horses, two mules and the don
key-and we were off again into Mon
| golia.

NOT AN ORDINARY OFFICIAL
According to Little Daughter, Papa
Must Have His Time Pretty

This true story was told US of the
small daughter of certain nationally
known parsonage. The gentleman to
whom we refer is president of more
institutions, boards of managers. com
mittees, learned societies and other
organized activities than we have
space to print in this column.
One day when an important meet
ing was about To begin. this promi-
ncnt persons little daughter wandered
into the room. She was quickly eSpied
by the solemn people assembled, and
hurriedly captured by a functionary
who demanded the reason for her
presence.
''rm looking for my papa" she said.
And who is your father?"
Hes the president"

Happy Outlook.

"Giving in" to grouchy, disagreeable
moods viii, instead of helping oui
cause in any way, seriously hamper
the same. We must, externally, be al
our best always if we hope to make
any kind of progress along life's way
Try to overlook the disappointment
that somehow come to us all. Indeed
1t is better still to forget them. Get
into the habit of smiling and lookin.
pleasant.
This attitude will help you in man,
ways, and life will take on an alto
gether different aspect. The crouch,
girl or woman hourly stands in hel
own light. Added to that she casts ,
gloom over the bright spirits of thos'
whom she meets from day to day.

SUGAR RATION
 DISCONTINUED

H. B. Joseph, local food admins trator, issued notice today regard ing the discontinuance of sugar rationing as from tomorrow.
 This is the last restriction in the food conservation program to be re- moved and Nenana has now been put on pre-war basis, but, not withstanding the fact that the food conservation rules have been re- laXed, Nenanaites are urged to ob- serve strict economy in the use of sugar, as we'll as other items of food.
 The notice referred to is as follows:
 Effective at 1 a. m., Sunday, November 24. 1918, rationing of sugar and sugar cards will be dis continued in this district
 But on honor, you are to con tinue economizing in the use of sugar and all other food.
 Half the world is on the verge of starvation, and to do less under such circumstances is crime. It makes no difference that the food which we have here canno. be used to help those who need it owing to the lack of transportation the waste of food is none the less the act of one who has not reached the average standard of human civilization.
 Actual hostilities have ceased al most everywhere; but the results oi the conflict will directly affect us all for years to come. The Food Administration is mak ing extensive plans for relieving the situation. We can surely helE in some more direct way than say, ing food which cannot be made i'm mediately available.
 Plans for such help will be dis cussed by the Council of Defense and announced later.

SW|NDLERS TAKE SECURITIES FROM
 COlOREO BUYERS

DALLAS, Texas.-Exploitatio of the southern negro. who has reached new stage of prosperity as a result of record cotton prices and high wages of the past few years, has gained such proportions that federal and state authorities are preparing for a drive on per sons who swindle the negro out of government war securities.
 Interruptions salesmen have flood ed the south, telling the negro that his liberty bonds, war savings and thrift stamps are of less than face value and offering to take them in exchange for oil or mine stock or dazzling bits of jewelry.
 Negroes all through the South bought freely of government securi ties. Sometimes they did not know just what they were buying, negro leaders say, but knew the govern ment wanted money and quickly emptied their purses. Some thought they were giving instead of invest . ing.
 They were better off than ever before. Those who had farmed on shares the proceeding years had l obtained more money for their cotton than they ever expected to posses and those who worked for wages in the fields were paid twice the wages of few years ago. i A letter just sent out by Prof E. L. Blackshear of the negro eX- tension work in Texas, says negroes are being offered cheap and often worthless goods with the assurance that their saving stamps and Liberty Bonds are not of par value and will not be for several years. It is then casually suggested by sales men that the negro may be dead before his holdings reach par value and emphasis is laid on the enjoy ment he would get by the imme- diate purchase of their goods, possi. bly, cheap trinkets, a worthless sew Prof. Blackshear has written cir cular letters to the leaders of the race in the state, urging immediate action to stamp out the evil by a campaign of education
