 Physicians buy, sell and praise Flaxolyn. Every day, in the Flaxolyn offices, many orders from physicians are received. They come from Seattle, San Diego, Sioux City, Syracuse from every state in the union and almost from every town op the map. And, in great many of the enve- lopes, tucked in with the physicians order, is an unsolicited letter, telling of the wonders of Flaxolyn.

WHY DO WE HESITATE?

Another American has been muir
dered in Mexico and the report comes
to Washington that Carranza has
ordered an investigation, 1t is not diff
ficult to forecast what an investiga-
tion by the minions of CarFanza will
amount to. After a long lapse of time
during which many other Americans
probably will be robbed and slain the
investigators Will find that nobody is
to blame unless it be the dead Ameri-
can.
Carranza is not merely radical; in
essence he is a Red, the original Next
can Bolshevik. His so-called govern
ment having appropriated almost
everything else available belonging to
foreigners, reached out to seize Amer
ica-owned petroleum fields. He has
believed himself safe to pilfer our pro-
perty. There can be no question of
fact as to his character and purposes.
The stock argument of the pro-Car-
ranzistas when confronted with the
facts of outrage and confiscation is
to accuse Americans of being inter
ventionists." There is some mighty spell
in this word which at a breath blots
out all wrongs done by Carranza. To
the men, who dare to protest against
spoliation by Mexico. the Mexican
group in power shouts you are trying
to bring on war" The facts are all
one way. Americans have been and
are being grossly wronged. No
charge has been brought against them,
save perhaps that they are enterpris-
ing intelligent and Industrious. Give
us a square deal" say the despoiled
Americans. you are trying to bring
on war" reply the Mexicans.
The assertion that Americans are
"interventionists" is cleverly designed
to, obtain sympathy from the ad-
ministration. If armed intervention
comes it will he because Carranza and
the small group in control with him
have made any other course impossi-
BILE and 1t will be undertaken in the
interest of the peace and prosperity
of Mexico as well as for the protec-
ton Of American lives and property
rights.

WHO WILL SAVE sToCKMEN?

The United States department of
agriculture has issued a circular urg-
ing the people to eat more beef in
order to save the cattle raisers from
bankruptcy. 1t is pointed out that
under the pressure of war necessity
production of beef cattle has eutrun
the demand since we no longer ex-
port beef TO Europe.
The circular points out that prices
of steers on the hoef have fallen from
IA to % per cent; that Wholesale prices
of beef have declined from ] 5 to 20
per cent. Why then do the people not
resume the pre-war consumption of
beef? The department furnishes the
answer in the following paragraph:
while the live cattle and wholesale
dressed beef markets have gone down
to the extent of 25 per cent the price
of retail beef cuts to the consumer
has been at a standstiIl in many cities.
has even increased as much as 20 per
cent on some cuts in some cities, and
where retail prices have been reduced,
the reductions usually are only from 5
to 7 cents per pound which means
only about 10 per cent reduction from
prices prevailing March l."
Why then does the department not
address the parties responsible for the
reduced consumption of beef? Let
it take the matter up with the re-
tailers. Why should not they save the
cattle raisers?
The circular cloges as follows:
The department has not the time in
this emergency to do more than to
present these outstanding facts. but
thus presented the facts demonstrate
clearly the commanding need for gov
eminent supervision over the manu-
facture. sale and distribution of meat
pruducts. Federal supervision of the
| interstate industry may well be &C
companied by state and municipal
legislation providing supervision over
| the intrastate and local industry. tc
| the end that federal, state and mu-
nicipal supervision may be correlated

speculation ana profiteering by fur
nishing to the public from unim-
peachable sources all the facts with
regard to the industry from the farm
to the table, in order that both pro-
Queer and consumer may have a
square deal.
The public already is in possession
OF all the facts that it deems it neces-
sary TO know. 1t knows that it is
being gouged by somebody on it's pur-
chases of beef. 1t knows furthermore
that buying more of a high priced
article Is a poor way to bring down tbs
price; that the one sure way of re-
! ducing the price of an article is tc
stop buying It.
The consumer is tired of being
called upon to furnish all the patriotic
service that may be demanded. He
would like to see the meat dealer con-
tribute his share toward the salvation
Of the cattle raiser.

Germany has ratified the peace

lowing similar action by three of the
allied powers. Probably there will be
little delay on the part of England
France and Japan. all of whom will
be anxious to resume business rela-
tions with their late enemy. The only
opposition to the treaty that is likely
to appear anywhere is in the United

the treaty, it seems that we should
be able to do so. And the senate will
ratify when the partisan political pos
sibilities to be found in long, drawn
out discussion of its terms, including

hausted. But in our congress 1t is

DOROTHY DIX TALKS
HOW to Win a Woman-2.
BY DOROTHY DIX
worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.

Many men are strong advocates Of
the bribery theory in courtship and
believe that the road to a womar's
heart is paved with gifts. This is q
mistake. Women like generous men,
and men who are not niggardly about
trifles, but no Woman's love Is ever
bought Every girl has what she calls
her candy beau, but she seldom mar
ries him.
An important point just here is that
he who would curry favor with gifts
must give with tact. The personal
element is always the strongest with
a woman, and she would rather have
five cent bunch of field flowers that
represented some taste or fancy than
fifty dollar bunch of American
beauties bought hit-or-miss.
In winning a woman be bold, but
be not too bold. Women hate BASH
full and timid man yet they loathe
the one who assumes ne is SO tas-
cinating no woman could resist him.
Many a man has lost the wife he de-
sired because he didn't have the cour-
age to pop the question, and many
another has been refused because he
had had so much the air of comforting
favor on the girl by asking her to
marry him that she couldn't resist the
temptation 20 say mo-,
Three dangers there are in court
ship. One is that a man will say too
much. Another is that he VIII say
too little. Too glib love making
argues too much experience. Too
little starves the heart of a woman
who is hungering and thirsting for
romance. During courtship is a time
when a man should let go his hold
on veraeity for it is every woman
right once in her life time to be told
that she is perfectly beautiful, brill
liaHtly witty. and complete eompen-
dunn of every feminine charm.
The third danger is jealousy which
is a boomerang that always returns
and annihilates the man. If he lets a
woman see that she can make him
jealous thereafter he is merely a
monkey on a stick that she makes
jump for her own amusement. On
the other hand, if he makes her jeal-
Gus he is simply furnishing the text
for future curtain lectures and I'M
founded suspicion.
The most vital point of eourtship.
however, is the ability to seize the
psychological moment when a woman
is ready to say "yes". Never propose
to a woman when she has on her best
tailor-made and is feeling fine and
fit. and as if she had the world in a
sling. Watch for some hour when
she is down on cher luck. and looks
slimpsy, and feels that all she wants
| is to cry on the second button of a
mans vest and have him call her,
baby.
But after all, these are merely tips
on how to win a woman's heart.
