HUNS AND TURKS.

If the Hypothetical man IN the
street has had two desires in this
war clearer and stronger than others,
they have probably been these: First,
that German military power should
be crushed; and second, that the
Turks should be driven out Of Europe.
The first aim lhas been attended to,
and the peace terms laid down y-the
Allies seem to give assurance that
Germany need be feared no longer. 1t
is /. yet quite evident what the
rep ntatives Of civilization now
functioning at Paris intend doing with
the Turks.
The presumption is that the Mos
lems are to be driven out Of Europe,
back into the remote hills Of Asia
Minor whence they first. came to op-
press better races and fonent endless
disturbances of European peace. II
the Peace Conference has not made a
definite decision to this effect, if it is
still hesitating over the question

roar of protest from the civilized
world as will bring a quick Shift OF

The Turk has had his day, and
much more than his day. He never

Whether Greece assumes control Of

jacent Greek settlements of Asia Mi

Another hope of the surreptitious
inpyer IS is blasted. The Supreme
Ccurt Of Maine has handed down a
decision declaring that Jamaica ginger
is4an intoxicant. and its sale or pos
session In a dry State is unlawful:
The decision is based on an analysis
of goods seized by the Maine authori-

found to contain anywhere from % to
80 per- cent alcohol. In these higher

MEXICO OR aIIXICO:

A nice, cool game for summer

CITY CREDITS.

The term city credits is not in it
self very illuminating: but something
of the sort is needed to correspond to
9srural credits" Things cannot be dis
cussed without having convenient
names for them; and the thing itself,
in this .ase, is forced into the field OF
comment by a bill prepared by the
Department of Labor and introduced
in the United States senate.
This measure aims TO provide fed
eral help for the 'own-your-own-
home" campaign. 1t recognizes the
Gripping scarcity of homes through
out the United States especially in the
Industrial centers. 1t is based on the
principle that if country people have
"A right to borrow money from govern
sfnent banks on easy terms to build
homes or improve their homes as
they may do under the rural credits
system, city people have just as good
a. righs to federal help in financing
their homes.

THE DANGERS OF SUGAR.

The substitution of candy for alco-
hol is very useful If one must lie
everstimulated, the effects Of doing

But there is tendency at present
to think that because candy IS a vel
'aab!e foood. its unlimited use cannot
hurt anyone.
This is far from the truth. Sugar is
a useful food So is lettuce. But .
diet consisting chiefly Of lettuce could
hardly be called well balanced.
The danger in candy is the same as
the danger in alcohol. namely the
temptation 10 consume TOO much and
to let ii destroy the appetite for

the introduction into the system Of

TO do far more harm than good. The
game holds true of ice-cream.
For one thing. sugar does stimulate

The nervousness Of which so many
Americans complain can be overcome
almost wholly by plenty OF air, exer-
else and wholesome diet containing
plenty of green stuff. Candy works
in two ways toward nervousness. II

vous system. with a consequent ten

the appetite for the other foods
which should accompany it.
Candy is good food. Use it freely

No Social Barriers In Turkey.

To those unfamiliar with Turkish
customs it may seem strange that
Talaak Pasha, who has just resigned
the highest dignity in the Ottoman en-
pire, should have been earning his liv-
ing only few years ago as an obscure
telegraph clerk. Yet such big jumps
are perhaps easier in Turkey than in
any other country. For although the
Ottoman Turks often show the utmost
contempt for the numerous subject
races that help to make up the Turk
ish empire, they recognize no social
barriers among themselves. In the
eyes of the sultan all are equal. Thus
it may easily happen that, given the
necessary ability, even an emancipated
Ottoman slave may become grand vi
zier, and perhaps marry into the sui
tan's own family.
