PERSIAN SLABS ARE
 NOT ALL IDENTICAL
Reigning Ruler Compared With Nasr-ud-din by English Press

London, Jan. 2.-The Shah of Per- sia, who has been visiting England, bears little resemblance, physically or otherwise, to that other shah, Nasr- ud- din who came here in 1875 and again in 1879, and on both oc- casions left behind him some not par ticularly savory memories. There was little of the saint about him, but he was picturesque and could not be re- stricted to the bounds of English con ventional responsibility. Therefore the public of a generati ton ago took a much keener interest in him than Londoners are doing in the reigning Shah.
 The latter is fat and placid, does everything that he is told to do. never upsets the programs that are pre- pared for him and shocks no one.
 In making a comparison between the two the Star recalls some of the escapades Aof Nasr- ud-din when he visited these shores.-
 During his '73 visit, it says, he de- manded to see B prize fight. So, after a, consultation with Lord Queensberry a glove fight was arranged for his de1ectation in Buckin gham Palace stables. As usual the Shah was late,
New Britain herald., 1920-01-02

so the venue was changed to a quiet spot in the corner of the palace gar denS.
 On his way, the Shah dashed through a room where a deputation of bishops was waiting to see him to beseech his august protection for the Christians in Persia. They followed him into the gardens and presently found themselves in a ring around two prizefighters. The fight was stopped; the Shah waxed angry and the good Lord Shaftesbury of pious memory, who led the deputation denounced the holding of "a prize fight in the queens palace.''
 But things were ultimately smoot1ed over, though what the Shah said about the Christians in Persia re- quired strong gloss in the interpre- tation.

PEACE MEETING
 AT TRADE CONFAB
Business Interests of Powers Lately at War Resume Old
 Relations,

The Hague, Jan. 2.-Trade confer- ences between bankers, merchants and salesmen of the Entente countries and central powers have succeeded the mysterious gatherings of spies in the hotels here and at Amsterdam. The iron, steel, shoes, ships and sealing 8 wax of commerce are the topics in stead of the routes of submarines, troop ships and food ships.
 Whatever may be the opinion in America, or England, or France, re- garding resumption of business with Germany and Austria, the representa- tives of the business concerns of those countries show nothing but a keen de- sire for such trade at the conferences here.
 The other day, at one of the Hague hotels, the groups seated in the lobby. engaged in earnest conversation on trade subjects, included:
 One-English ship owner and direc- tor of one of Germany's biggest Transatlantic lines;
 Two-Belgian banker and German automobile manufacturers;
 Three-American travelling sales man and Hungarian general importer.
 All of them so far as the corres- pondent could judge from the frag- ments of their conversation that came to his ears, were on friendly terms and keen for business

Mexico City, Jan. 2.-LuiS Cabrera, secretary of the treasury, commenting recently on the high price of silver and the temporary shortage of silver coins here, asserted that the republic was really benefited by such a con- dition, as Mexico is a pretentious pro- ducer of silver and numerous mines that have been closed for some time are reopening under the stimulus of current prices. It is stated that ap- proximately 62,00O,OO0 ounces of sil- yer will be produced in Mexico this year.

Newspaper Mistakes

DEPTH ICAN VOTE IN
SOUTHERN STATES

Atlanta, Ga, November Al ennes-
see and Louisiana were not the only
states in the solid South" in which
the Republicans made unexpected
gains in the presidential election.
Latest reports from Florida show
that Senator Harding carried a num-
Der of towns in the state, including
st. Petersburg, Orlando and Daytona.
The returns from the outlying dis
tricts are coming in very slowly and
Republican leaders predict they will
show further gains.
For the first time in history several
towns and country precincts in the
Sixth Mississippi district gave Re
publican majorities, the towns includ-
ing Seminary and Runnels. Some
counties in Alabama. heretofore
strongly Democratic, also returned
Republican majorities.
In two congressional districts in
the South, the Seventh Alabama and
Tenth North Carolina, the Republi-
can candidates for congress have made
charges of fraud and threaten to con-
test the election Of the Democratic
representatives.

tunity has been given to the trade to

the opinion of the officials that there
s now no excuse for any shipper fail
ing to mark the quantity of the con
tents on packages Of fruits and vege-
tables within the jurisdiction Of. the
law.
It is not Necessary for the present
and until further notice to mark the

bage in crates; cantaloupe and casa

WHAT ARE vITAMINEs?

What are these peculiar substances
which we are urged to have in our
diet, but which we do not understand
They are called vitamines. The best
answer to this question is to give q
little Of their history.
Several years ago we believed that
If we gave the correct amounts Of
proteins, starehes, sugars, fats and
mineral salts we would be well nour-
ished. SCIENTISTS fed a sufficient
amount Of these substances, pure, to
animals and people and they found
that four things happenedi First,
growth stopped in the young. Second,
building up did not keep pace with
wasting away Of bodily tissues in the
adult. Third, certain diseases de-
veloped, and fourth, old age came
early,
When these same foods We're given,
but eggs, butter and few other sub
stances were added, both animals and
people grew and thrived, if free from
actual disease. Continuing these eX-
ueriments thew did such things as
this: They selected 40 children from
four to 10 years of age in an orphan
asylum where the children had enough
Of bread, meat and vegetables. They
gave each Of these a quart Of fresh
milk d day in addition to the regular
food. At the end of five months the
differences, mental and physical, were
so phenomenal as to be almost unbe-
lievable. Their appearance, chest,
heiehth and other measurements,
their ability to pick up weights, run
without fatigue and do mental tasks
was remarkable.
Then they took groups Of our
Southern people of low vitality, peo-
ME who live chiefly on tuber vege-
tables, meat and molasses. They
added milk, eggs and leafv vegetables,
and in six months their eyes had
frightened, their vitality increased
and old age diseases, such as harden
ing of the arteries, certain forms of
kidney trouble and pellagra had dis
appeared when not too far advanced
The same was true with groups of
cotton mill ana fisher folk, who lived
mostly on tea or coffee and white
bread, fish and salt meat,
(a) The people who live too largely
on meat, potatoes and bread furnish
very hieh mortality from tubercu-
losis. The addition Of milk, eggs ana
lpafv vegetables contributes to their
vitality and resistance.
OBJ Those who live too largely on
cornmeal, sweet potatoes and meat
.havd high incidence Of pellagra.
(c) In communities where no fresh
milk is used, pellagra is high; where
most is used, it is lowest. The same
can be said of the other protective
foods, milk, eggs and the leafy vege-
tables.
ID Certain foods are called pro-
tectiye foods because they contain
those misunderstood substances
called vitamines. which correct the
faults of the ordinary diet.-The Pro-
eressive Farmer.

FIRST RACE WON
IN DIRECT CONTEST


The gubernatorial contest between
Roberts and Col. All Taylor is the
first real, direct fight in the history
Of the state between a Democratic
candidate and a Republican candidate
In which the Republican won, Brown
low and Senter were chosen at a time
when there was no Democratic organ
ization and the elections were practic-
ally at the mercy Of the Republican,
or radical, party, as it was then called.
Gen. John c. Brown, gallant soldier
and splendid statesman, was chosen
in 1870 Along in 1880 the Demo-
Gratis split over the state debt and
Alvin Hawkins, Republican nominee,
got the office by minority vote, In
1884 Hon. Fl. Clay Evans received a
clear majority Of the popular vote,
but was refused the seat by Demo
cratic legislature. Later on, when
Democrats were divided over the pro
hibition issue, Gov. Hooper was twice
elected; rather a fusion than Re-
publican victory. Col. Taylor, how
ever, as stated, registers the first
clean-cut, straighout victory for his
party in the states history.-Nash-
