Our Foreign Population.

| The question of foreigners in America and
Of those who may seek to come to our shores after
the war is over is one that presents certain elements
of difficulty,
1t is probable immigration laws will be made
! much more strict and that immigration from the
| countries now at war with America will be pro-
hibited-at least for a heightened period. This en-
bargo however is likely to be unnecessary, for the
reason that the enormous loss of man power in
| Europe by reasons of the war, is certain to lead
foreign governments to bar the door against any
permanently leaving their shores
All of foreign birth in America will-doubtless-
ere the war closes have experienced change Of

even many have maintained the idea that the

lures to minimum, and then say good bye" and

This notion is however disappearing. A tremen-
dous blow has been struck EUROPEAN prestige and

used visit Germany in search of scholarship and
culture regard central Europe as the abode of
barbarians. East of Germany. Europe is in chaos
It's condition may excite compassion, but not defer

dangerous. Germans now perceive that they must
abandon this idea and make their choice-go back
to Germany after the remain in the United

the privileges of American citizenship.
In the long the alien question will be solved
by the continual growth of the United States.
We are nearly as large as all Europe and require

If Germany had succeeded in dominating Europe
it would have been a continual to America.
But this war-unIess all expectations are disap-

A SLIGHT
MISUNDERSTANDING

1t is bad enough to have ones
wrist broken, but when it is the
means of almost ending ones TO-
nance it is truly a calamity. OF
course it had to be the left wrist /;
fate never chooses the lesser OF two
evils.
On Natalie Carfield's left hand
was a make-believe engagement
ring or, to be more exact, the dia-
mond was genuine and only the
engagement was make-believe.
Natalie wore the ring on her en-
gagement finger out Of pure love
of mischief, and it was fun while
it lasted. But the end was bound
TO come, and it brought misunder-
standing in its wake Everybody
in Natalie's home town knew that
the position OF the ring was only
a girlish within; but when she went
among strangers it was a different
matter. 1t was while she was at
tending a house party at West
banks. the home of her friend,
Margery Locke, that the ring be-
gan to make trouble.
One of the guests at the house
party was Doctor JACK Claiming.
How he ever fell in love with Ma
talie without knowing she was en-
gagged is hard to tell.
Fate chose that day to decree
that Natalie should break her left
wrist. and as Doctor Charming was
the only physician who could be
summoned, he was obliged 10 set

BOwlegs in Childhood.
My little girl began having
slight outward bowling Of the legs
when she began to walk, at II
months. There seems to be no
bowling above the knees. Now at
% months they are curved quite
badly. The doctor prescribed cod
liver oil and daily "springing' at
the point of greatest curvature just
above the ankles. He says little
later he will fit special shoes to
favor strengthening of the legs. Is
this treatment likely to do any
good? MRS. A. R. e.
Answer-Yes. The child probably
was raised on some food that fat
tened with much sugar or starch
but failed to supply vitamine and
real strength building material.
Cod liver oil (the pure article) is
an excellent remedy Generally the
bowling gradually disappears as the
child develops better strength.

The Pupils.

The dark round spot of the eye
is the pupil. The pupil is surround
ed by the ring of the iris, which
gives the eyes their various colors.
All eyes are dark gray or brown,
but when there is comparatively lit
tie brown pigment in the iris we
call the eyes Bite; little more
pigment makes gray" eyes; still
more makes brown" eyes; and the
greatest amount of pigment in the
iris makes "black" eyes. Imagina-
ton, you see And when it comes
TO violet, azure and other tints, well,
only a youth in love can see them
at all.
The pupil is naturally small when
| the eye looks at a bright light, and
large when the eye looks at a dark
! surface. The pupil is small when
the eye regards a very near object
and large when the eye regards a
distant object.
Fear makes the pupils grow large.
Belladonna tor its active princi-
pie, atropine) or homatropine,
dropped in the eyes, causes wide
dilatioIl or enlargement of the pu-
pill for several days, together with
temporary loss of ''accommOda
ton" that is, the capacity to focus
the eyes for near vision.
A doctor can tell little or moth
ing about general conditions by
looking at a patients eyes, though
an experienced observer may get
many clues by an inspection of the
eyes and sometimes much help in
making a diagnosis. n
All eyes are practically the SAME
size, whether they are called Large"
eyes or small eyes. Large" eyes
are eyes with widely opened lids;
small eyes have narrowly opened
lids.
So, after all, there amt no sech
thing as big blue eyes after you get
married and settled in life.
A person under the effect of full
dose of morphine or opium has very
small pupils. But a morphine or
opium habitue doesn't show any pc
Culiarity of the eyes.
The pupil in early infancy Is
small; it is larger in youth and
early adult life; it becomes smaller

Nearsighted eyes generally have
large pupils; farsighted eyes have

tract when a bright light is brought

the pupil is permanently large In

The United Cities.

The consolidated city idea with boroughs for each
of the cities Of Rock Island, Moline, and East Mo-
line Endorsed by the Tri-City Federation of La
Dor, meets with the approval of The Argus. The
plan has long been advocated, and its execution
would mean a unified municipality of not less than
100000 people. and probably the second city in the
state. 1t would insure economy and better manage
ment of city affairs, and Of the cities would
lose their present title identity, but we would
have one great commercial and industrial munich

Dear Mrs. Thompson: | am go
ing with two men and both OF them
seem to care great deal Tor me.
They are entirely different and /
like both very much. One is a
steady worker and makes fairly
good pay, | think, and he ID get
ting quite a bank account because
he saves so well.
The other man has worked in
three places this last year and has
made the change each time for a
good increase fin salary. He says
that money isn't worth anything
unless it gives US happiness. lie
takes me to nice places and always
spends a great deal Of money on
me. This man is very interesting
and has a pleasing and sociable ma
ture.
The man who saves his money
likes to talk and read and he IS
very interesting, too. l like him be-
catise he is so we'll informed about
everything. The thing | don't like
is that he never spends any money
on me or on himself to have good
time.
Which of the two men do you
think would make the better hus-
band? DOUBTFUL.
A great deal of unhappiness is
caused in this world by men who
will not give their wives money for
necessities. A woman should be
cautious about marrying man who
is close with his money before mar
rage. I do not mean that she
should look for a loose spender-
such a man can cause as much mis-
cry by his recklessness as a miser.
From your description Of the two
men 1 think I should prefer the lib
eral man if he is interesting and
intelligent, providing he does not
spend to the point of endangering
your future happiness by living
above his income.

move all the tough portions from

add a tablespoon of melted butter,
half teaspoonful of salt, a table
spoonful of chopped parsley. Fill

Add boiling water to half cover,
and stew an hour. Remove the
strings, and brown the heart in a

Brown Sauce-Rub together a
level tablespoonful of flour and one
gill (one-half cup) of the liquor in
which the heart was boiled, stir IN
til boiling, add a teaspoonful of
browning or kitchen bouquet and
a quarter of a teaspoonful of salt.
Strain over the heart, and serve.
Potatoes-It is wise in a family
of two to boil six potatoes at one
time. Use two of them mashed or
plain as soon as done. Another
two may be used for hashed in
cream sauce, and the remaining
two for hashed brown potatoes.
This saves time and fuel.
