Doctor Tells How to Detect
Harmful Effects of Tobacco
Try These SIMPLE TESTS

New York: Doctor COnnor, formerly
.of Johns Hopkins hospital says: Many
men who smoke, chew or snuff inees-
sanity and who are seemingly healthy
are suffering from progressive organic
ailments. Thousands Of them would
never have been afflicted had il moi
been for the use Of tobacco, and thou
sands would soon get well if they
would only stop the use Of tobacco.
The chief habit forming principle of
tobacco is nicotine, a deadly poison
which, when absorbed by the system
slowly affects the nerves, membranes,
tissues and vital organs of the body.
The harmful effect of tobacco varies
and depends on circumstances. One will
be afflicted with general debility, 9TH
ers with catarrh of the throat, indiges-
ti0n, constipation, extreme nervousness
sleeplessness, loss Of memory. lack Of
will power, mental confusion, etc. 9th
ers may suffer from heart disease,
bronchial trouble hardening Of the ar
teries, tuberculosis, blindness or even
cancer or the common affliction known
as tobacco heart. If you use tobacco
in any form you can easily detect the
harmful effects by making the follow
ing simple tests. Read aloud one full
page from book. If, in the course of
reading your voice becomes muffled,
hoarse and indistinct, and you must
frequently clear your throat, the ehane
es are that your throat is affected by
eatarrh and it may be the beginning
of more serious trouble. Next, in the
morning before taking your usual
smoke, walk up three flights of stair

SHEEP-RAISING.

An association for promoting an increased interest in
sheeprasing has been organized 1t name and slogan are
"More Sheep---More Wool"
But the chief of the bureau of animal industry does

The quality of the wool depends upon the condition

GERMAN SHAME.

All Germany is still whining about the Shame" Of
the peace if it disgrace inflicted on Germany by
outside powers
1t is an abuse Of words. The German dramatist
Grlparzer as Max Harden reminds his feow-country-
men, wrote truly: Il know only shame on earth and
that is to do wrong"
The shame lies in the crimes committed by the Ger
man government and the German army with the enths
iastic support Of the German nation What Germany is
enduring now is merely the logical consequence of those
crimes. And if the Germans showed any moral apprecia-
ton Of the horrors and injustice they committed if they
were really and heartily ashamed of their deeds that in
itself would do much to wipe out the shame and win them
some respect

sheep and wool industry
Hence he urges not an increased number of Ocks as
the best solution of the wool shortage but an increase
the number of sheep kept by who have studied sheep
raising and where land and other conditions are favor
able
Probably he is right. The sheep business, like any
other business must be properly conducted if it is to pay
and that means knowledge of it as the fundamental prn
ciple. But there' no why many more men and
women should not learn the sheep business from the
ground up The field is large and so are the possible

A MANS OPINION.

CHAPTER XVII
The motor took us down to the train.
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1919-05-30
Push Road Building

! Four years ago 1t cost about $13,-
GOO to build a mile of sixteen-foot
concrete road in Wisconsin. Last
year it cost about $4,000 for a mile
OF concrete road in Wisconsin.
This means that in four years
the cost of concrete roads increased
about $4,000 mile. or almost fifty
per cent. These figures are for
Wisconsin, but it is safe to say that
the cost of roads has increased in a
similar way over all the country.
Yet good roads are cheaper than
ever before. Country people today
can buy more roads with their pro.
ducts than they could a few years
ago under normal price conditions.
While the cost of road building has
gone up, the price which farmers
receive for their products has also
gone up, so that 100 pounds Of milk,
or bushel of grain, will buy more
good roads today than it would four
years ago.
Today bushel of wheat at 1925
will buy lis square yards of con-
crete road at $1.79 a square yard.
Four years ago with wheat at ninety
cents and concrete road surfacing
at 81 rs square yard, one bushel
of wheat would buy threequarters
of a yard-a difference of almost
one half yard in purchasing power.
A similar comparison can be car
ried out for gravel and dirt roads, |
and show the same results There.
fore, road building should be push |
ed this year.

Buy a Home

Every laborine poor man should
buy himself a town lot, get that
paid for and then work to make
the necessary improvements. A
little here and a little there will in
due time produce you a home OF
your own, and place you out of the
landlords grasp; remember that
fifty dollars year saved in rent,
will in very few years pay for
your home. and the money it cost
you to move and shift about with
out loss of furniture and time. pay
the interest on a five hundred dol
lar judgement against your property,
until you can gradually reduce it to
nothing. You can all buy that way
why do you risk it? If you fail

do, you have made a home and es,
