weighed down. The girl thinks she is unhappy
and sometimes frankly miserable. She manu-
features causes for her misery or else exagger-
ates unduly the trifles that are not TO her lik
ing and makes them causes for her depression.
Moreover, besides these, Indigestion causes
even graver troubles. | can recall several in
stances of persons whose serious decline IN
health began with various symptoms OF indi-
gestion 1t was never ce,u to me whether
Indigestion was the cause of the effect of their
maladies.
How to prevent Indigestion? There are many
effective ways.
Much walking is extremely helpful in curing
indigestion. ! have often advised walking as
q stimuant to the torpid functions Of the body,
and | consider il the best aid TO health and
beauty that a woman can have.
Again let me tell you that coarse cereals are
an enemy to ill-health and Indigestion. Dat
meal, whole wheat, rice, all being large fibered
foods, stir the stomach and intestnes to activ-
ity. which is good for indigestion.

BUSY WITH THE SPUDS

Germany. for instance, uses
each year four times rs many
spuds per capita as the United
States. This does not mean that
Michel eats all these tubers, but
that he makes them over into
starch and alcohol; that he gets
flour and feed from them; that
in general he uses them for all
they are worth while we do not
even attempt 10 do so.

The Country Is Not Satisfied
With the Republican Nomi-
nation or Platform
There Is Little Hope That the Democratic Nominate
and Platform Will Satisfy Them.

The demand for third party spreads throughout the
mtre country. In the Republican nomination the nation
was allowed much Of tho inside workings for the
Republican psrys good It has that only last mo-
investigation by the Senate spued by Borah and
emphasized in newspapers prevented the outright sale OF
the Presidency
Ivory Soap would have had the pleasure and profit OF
buying the Republican nomination publicity had not
stopped it.
Hastily at the last moment, the Republican party
threw overheard those openly bidding for the nomination
and took in place ticket representing quite well tho
interests that usually buy nominations.
As there is dissatisfaction with the Republican ticket
and platform there little hope In the Democratic ticket
and platform soon to be handed out
The people told that group Of professional poll
cans gathered at French Lick is planning to pick tho
and build the platform They know that tho chances
hundred to that San Franciscos Democratic
vention will produce close imitation Of the Republican
product, with another label .,...

stupid Government extravagauce, working mon that see

ity. Without them, all the talent
in the world would do you little
good in the theater, which exacts
a tremendous toll of both physical
and nervous force. II, after look

gains and losses, if you have your
eyes focused on the work and not
the expected applause, and you
still feel you would never be salts
fled without having tried your
luck in this manner, suppose it is
something for you and no one else
to decide. As for entering a dra-
matte school, I'm not so sure "old
stage hands" would tell you that
would be the best method. think
it is generally understood that In
the theater itself one most quickly
becomes a real actress. The small
est part on the stage or the work
of understudy with your eyes and
ears open would probably do you
more good than several years at
a school. For, as Belasco says, IF

her. He is forty-seven years old.
while she 10 ,twenty-one. He is
from the West and is visiting hero
In the East and is anxious to have
his niece marry him and go back
home with him. Is there a law pro-

they were to marry. could they be
separated by marriage annullment?
BABE.
There is a law in the District Of
Columbia which prohibits the
marriage of an uncle and niece.
Section 1888 of the District code
specifically prohibits "the mar
riage Of a man with his brothers
daughter or sisters daughter"
and declares that any such mar
riage should be absolutely void. AS
such a marriage is not considered
legal in the District Of Columbia,
it could be annulled.
The laws of the different states
vary in regard to the intetmar-
riage of relatives 1t would be
necessary for you to consult the
law of each State to obtain def
mite information in regard to all
the States.

still am not discouraged and would
be willing to work long hours in

short hours in one which bores me
to distraction (stenography). Ihate

Saturday night comes, for the brief
respite which Sunday gives. So you
can sec 1 am not exactly "en-

something quickly IN order TO help
along, I decided to learn stenog-
