CAR DRIVING HARD ON FEET
Use of AcceIerator Causes "Short
Circuit" Of Pedal Nerves or "Motor
Foot" II is Said.

When car owners return from their
summer vacation many of them re-
turn limping. A new summer cpl
demic is at large in the ranks Of vaca-
tionists.
The new ailment has been given the
popular name of motor foot" In the
language of surgical chiropody it is in
dexed and classified under the name
of "metatarsal displacement"
Continuous motoring is the cause
of the ailment. 1t is right foot
trouble caused by the continuous strain
occasioned by long motor trips when
the driver keeps his foot in the strained
position required by the use Of car
accelerator.
This position causes displacement
Of the metatarsal bones which In turn
causes them, In motor language, to
"short" the nerves Of that part of the
foot. This in turn is the answer for
the pain that accompanies the dis
tinction of possessing motor foot"
motor foot" not only makes walk
ing painful, but practically eliminates
golf, tennis or any Of the other popu-
lar forms of active recreation.

bladder trouble and never suspect it.

gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am.
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..

scription, obtained at any drug store, may

All the men at the club have been
watching Johnnie Edwards, the invet'

there's been much surmising and con-
occurring, but Johnnie wouldn't give
himself away. 1t seems that Johnnie
has held the prize for the champion
smoker Of the club for ten years. 4
In the last week Johnnie has been
seen strolling around the room with
detected, lost appearance and be-
tween his lips always the inevitable
cigarette. But 1t was never lighted
Nobody liked to ask him questions and
he didn't volunteer any explanation, so
il wasn't explained until Jimmie Van

phone:
"NO, you have got to stick to your

enough, but Doc says you've gotta

Mr.. Biggs was planning to build a

bought an expensive saw. He left his

the intention of starting the job. Put

he came into the dining room and
flung himself down into chair In dis

"That new saw bought isn't worth

one of the worlds earliest civiliza-
| tons.
In the bottoms of these deep valleys,
some of which are fairly wide, and in
other depressions, tropical conditions
| prevail, so that the possible products
of Abyssinia range from those of the
tropics to those of the northern tenn
perate zone. Little has been done
toward the development of agriculture
beyond it's primitive stages. The rails
ing of cattle, sheep and goats for their
milk, flesh and skins is the more popu-
lar pursuit.
The Abyssinlan has been described
by one American as rather an indie
pendent, easy-living, battle-loving,
demonstrating, sensual, devil-may-
care chap" Socially, the people are
living In feudal times. The various
reigning princes Of the provinces owe
allegiance to the emperor and must
furnish soldiers to support him in
time of war; The land Is theoretically
owned by the emperor and those who
make use Of it are his tenants. Jus
tice" is administered personally by the
rulers and their representatives. When
person Is accused Of a crime the
first step is TO confscate his property.
Decision as to his innocence or guilt
can follow in due time. Because prop
erty has been unsafe for long period
people of wealth have buried what
they could for safe keeping. Vast
quantities Of gold, silver and ivory
are believed to lie underground at the
present time, the latter, of course, de-
teriorating.
Good Roads Are Scarce.
One great drawback to the CONNER
cial development of AbySsnia has
been the lack of roads leading up to
the high plateau and over its surface.
The routes of travel which have been
used for more than n thousand years
are mere trails, and the burdens have
been carried on mule and camel back
since the days Of the great Queen Of
Sheba, who, the traditions of the
Abyssinians say, was the queen or
Ethiopia. The royal line claims de-
scent from her and Solomon. Some

Jibuti, just below the mouth of the
Red sea, toward Abyssnia. The
Abyssinians permitted this to be ex-
tended into their country and In 1917

over this road large part Of the
hides, coffee, beeswax and ivory, which

Specialists in various fields who
have visited the country believe that
this is but a small part Of the prod

world, and that the people are enjoy
ing but fraction Of the prosperity
that they might enjoy II they devel-
oped their resources along modern
lines.
AS the only African people which
has been able to maintain its indie
pendence In modern times in war
with n European power the Abys-
sinians have become rather conceited
and are inclined not to recognize the
superiority even Of Western civliza-
ton and culture. Their victory was
won over the Italians In 1896 at the
battle Of Adowa where the pick Of the
italian army was cut to pieces. The
Abyssinians have bought large quanti-
ties of modern rifles in recent years
and could probably put in the field In
case OF war an army Of 100000 we'll
equipped soldiers, large part Of
them mounted.

NEXT THURSDAY
SET FOR RITES
OVER CARDINAL
Body of Gibbons Will Be
Placed Under Altar in
Baltimore Cathedral.
PRIMAL SEE UNCHANGED

BALTIMORE, March 25.-With Thurs
day Of next week as the definite date for
the funeral of Cardinal Gibbons, prepara-
tions are under way here for the recep-
ton of the distinguished cergy and lay
men who will be present at the last rites.
The body Of the late Cardinal will rest
in the archiepiscopaI residence until late
Easter Sunday. 1t then will be removed
to the cathedral, where the body will
lie in state until the close Of the funeral
services Thursday. The body then will
be placed in a niche in the crypt under
the high altar, where it viii remain so
long as the present cathedral stands
Despite the death OF Cardinal Gibbons,
Baltimore will remain the primal see of
the Catholic church in the United states.
II is stated. There viii be no shift of
authority, since the choice Of a successor
TO the archbishopric here involved no
question of seniority or rank. This means
that Baltimore will remain the seat OF
an archbishopric, a successor to the car
dinal to be named by Pope Benedict Nv
at some future date from among the bish-
ops and archbishOps of the United States.
It is believed. however, that the sue
cessor to Cardinal Gibbons as archbishop
OF Baltimore is not likely TO be elevated
to the cardinalate in the very near fu-
ture. Perhaps within the next six months
a new archbishop will have been selected
to take over the reins laid down by car
dinal Gibbons at his death.
The affairs of this archdiocese in the
meantime Will be conducted by an al
ministrator, to be appointed at a special
meeting of the consultors of the arch
diocese to be- held at the late Cardinals
residence.
