attacked as tuberculosis has been for

Gives Advice on Food and
Habits On His goth
Birthday,

LOS ANGELES. Calf, June DIR.
James Martin PEBBLES. physician and
author, who not long ago celebrated his
Goth birthday anniversary and who wrote
a book on How to Live Century and
Grow Old Gracefully, ascribes his long
life in large measure to abstinence from
eating animal flesh. DIR. PEBBLES stopped
eating meat when he was 80 years old.
He wrote his book on the rules of living
when he was 81.
Asked what he considered the greatest
cOntributOry cause to his long life he in
stantly replied:
"One cannot strengthen life by living
on death. | cannot bear the idea of eat
ing dead COWS and dead hogs; and itsiG not
necessary. See how strong are horses
and oxen; they do not live on dead flesh.
Other rules he made for himself and
which he said he believed had helped him
to reach his advanced years included
Go to bed every night at $50. Ont
of bed every morning ut six. Never use
tobacco. Never use intoxicating liquors.
Never complain.
Avoid all worry and keep an harmon
iouS mind. Worry is among the worst
things in the world. Have a strong will
power. Always look for the new. Keep
calm s.. .... ...
On his 99th birthday. DIR. PEBBLES
walked erect. only occasionally using a
cane: his sight is good, although he used
spectacleS for reading; his hearing las
good as ever and his appetite and diges-
ton he declared excellent. His long
white beard and hair gave him a truly
venerable appearance.
| Asked what his plans for the future
were@he replied:
To live Il number of years more and
to write at least another book. This will
! be on the progress of Christianity as ii is
| preached, showing how preachers are
leaving hell fire, birthstone, purgatory and
many other old-time dogmaS behind.
What Il variety of mighty changes
! since my birth! - he exclaimed ''Napol-
| con then had just died on the Island of st
| Helena; old Hickory Johnson, as he was
/ then called, had just been elected presi

| a budding state and the great wide west

| Later came telegraph, telephones, rail

THE POWER OF ADVERTISING.

Your daily newspaper actually per-
forms the feat that fortune tellers
falsely claim.
Past, Present and Future are por-
trayed in type and pictures. The news
stories relate the deeds and words OF
yesterday and today. 1t is the priv.
ilege Of the advertising writer to ac-
curately predict the apparel, food and
amusements Of tomorrow The gown
that Mrs. Brown will wear at next
Tuesdays bridge battle, the breakfast
food and coffee that will tighten
Smiths morning gloom, the very gar
ments Of infants that are yet to be are
pictured in the advertisements.
The ordering of our daily lives is
influenced by the power Of advertis-
ing The luxuries Of yesterday become
the necessities OF today, because ad-
yertising makes mass production pos
sible.
The news provides a momentary
thrill, or gives cause for an instant's
thought. Advertisements influence the
choice of those intimate articles for
daily use, that determine comfort and
well being.
Idle workmen take up their tools.
when advertising creates the buying
impulse.
The orange growers in California,
the date pickers Of Smyrna, and the
silk weavers Of japan depend upon
advertising to market the product Of
their daily toll.
Mary OF Main Street knows the
skirt length Of Parisian Marie, the
Peau Brummel Of Broadway and the
barber Of Brownsville are collared and
clothed alike. through the magic Of the
printed word.

at any time since they were taken into
custody, in the opinion OF Captain Mer.

escaped recently from one Of the camps
near Moscow. Captain Cooper at the
time of his capture was commander OF

Polish army.

nished by the soviets, Captain Cooper
said. All OF the Americans would have
died long ago, Cooper believes, if II
hadn't been for outside aid from time
to time.
Captain Cooper said he was on the
verge Of starvation several times, mem
bers of British railway mission who
were also prisoners coming to his res
cue with food in one instance and on
other occasions, eatables having been
sent him by foreign welfare organiza-
tions.
The food ration of the average camp
follows:
Morning-imitation coffee half pound
black bread, spoonful sugar.
Noon-two spoonfuls cooked mush
made Of cereal resembling bird seed.
Night-cup OF hot soup. A small
amount of potatoes and a piece of meat
usually not larger than an egg, were
served on an average of about twice
a month.
The black bread, according to Coop

American army, was captured by the
Germans during the Saint Mihiel drive,

X. p Kalemantiano, a graduate Of
the University of Chicago, accused of be-

years, most of this time having been
in solitary confinement. Originally, Ka-

Cooper heard, but later this was com
muted to 20 years Imprisonment, and
at last accounts the sentence had been
reduced to five years. Kalemantiano

LITTLE THINGS PUT TOGETHER

Big things are merely little things
put together.
The backwoodsman goes 10 the city
and is overawed by the sight OF the
tall buildings. Yet those buildings are
constructed Of small bricks any one
OF which, considered separately, is
quite comprehensive.
So It is with most large accomp-
lishments. We are mystined and i'm
pressed by big battleships, big busi-
ness success, big political triumphs:
But all big things are made up Of
small units. Battleships are construct
ed OF comparatively small pieces OF
metal. business successes are made
up OF day by day thinking and plan
ming and working political triumphs
are the result Of year in and year out
work with the voters.
The tasks which face you may seem
large and difficult, your troubles may
seem unsurmountable Yet II you live
one day at a time, II you divide your
undertakings into units and tackle
them separately, you will find that
the things which seemed so difficult
are not so hard to handle after all
You may want TO save n thousand
dollars. It may seem a hopeless un-
dertaklng Yet II you can save a de-
finite amount each week, you'll find
that a thousand dollars is not so diff.
cult 70 Accumulate. II means merely
saving approximately ten dollars a
week for two years. or five dollars q
week FOR four years. II your savings
are deposited In savings bank. com
pound interest will work for you and
make your funds increase supris-
ingly.
Whatever you undertake, remember
Just this: big things are merely
little things in combination. You
can do the little things, taken sepOr-
ately. So you need not worry abou,
the big things.
