lions day or two ahead. Clouds, hui
midity, and the winds are reliable
signs, though not infallible. The most
threatening looking cloud may not be
quite heavy enough to precipitate its
moisture before the wind carries 1t far
away. Some persons also claim to
know when rain is approaching by spe'
cial sensitiveness.
These are short range predictions
Human beings cannot be relied upon
to gauge the weather more than day
or two ahead, so the meteorologists
insist And the same is true of the
creatures of the animal world.
The squirrel in the autumn hides as
many nuts as he can find, not as
many as he figures he will need for a
long or short winter. Unusual activ-
ity of bees does not necessarily mean
that they anticipate a long winter
either. In southdn California bees
collect honey all yer round as busily
as if a long, cold winter was about to
set in any minute
More credible is the statement that
cattle are restless just before storm.
Human beings are similarly sensitive
to the electricity in the air and the un-
usual wind-either hot or chilling
which often precedes storms.
But as far as the coming winter, or
any winter is concerned, one prophet
or sign is as good as another If you
take the advice of the government ex-
perts, you won't buy your coal or your
winter overcoat on the strength of the
squirrels antics or the strangely sig
nificant acorn crop.

BAD BREATH

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub

bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath

bad breath by all who know them
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets act
gently but firmly on the bowels and
liver, stimulating them to natural
action, clearing the blood and gently
purifying the entire system. They
do that which dangerous calomel does
without any of the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening,
gripping cathartics are derived from
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets without
gripping, pain or any disagreeable eff
fects.
DR.. F. NJ Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac-
tice among patients afflicted with
bowel and liver complaint, with the
attendant bad breath.

of Illinois are spending $7O,0OO,000 this year in
extensions and improvements of service.
All this points to an optimistic viewpoint OF
most of the big business men of the country
The heads of these organizations are not mex
perienced business men, but executives who hold
their positions because their foresight is good
and their executive judgment sound.
They are preparing for the better days which
they see in the near future. None of them
would jeopardize millions of dollars if they did
not know that the investments would make sound
returns. And while they are fortifying and
Strengthening their own companies by these out
lays, they are also giving employment to thou
sands whose purchasing power is thereby main
tanned.
These OUTLAWS speak of returned prosperity
They are not opinions of financial leaders, but
positive facts that the leaders actually believe
what they say.
The multiplication of these evidences of bust
ness will hasten quickly the day of normally
Every man who is given employment on these
jobs becomes buyer. With the money in hand
these men are able to pay debts they owe to
the dealers and to purchase other commodities,
which in turn will stimulate buying and the pro-
duction of goods
And in passing it is interesting to note that
the price of many commodities are cheaper than
they have been in many years, some of them in
fact, cheaper than they were in the pre-war
period. Persons who have delayed buying nee
essary commodities because they believe prices
will go still lower will be showing wisdom in
buying now.

Paving the Way for Prosperity

Irrespective of what our personal feelings to-
ward some of the larger corporations may be-
the promptness with which some of them are
providing work for the unemployed by ordering
extensions to their plants and making alterations

be placed to their credit
Take the United States Steel corporation as
an example. 1t has provided $10,OOOOOO to ex-
pand its facilities. The standard Oil company of
New Jersey will spend S2,OoO,O 900 on its refiner-

Dope for Weather Prophets
BY FREDERICK j. HAskIN

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. IT,
We are going to have hard winter
this year."
! You hear lot of amateur prophesies
to this effect, and a few to the con
trary. Some base their predictions on
the way the squirrels are piling up
nuts and some on the report that
muskrats have thick fur, and some on
the fact that ducks have come south
sooner than usual.
| The government attaches no signi.
flcance to special industry on the part
OF squirrels, or to any of these other
Things. Nor does it consider reports
OF early flight of birds to the south a
true warning that winter will set in
sooner than usual. The government
biologist and metorologist regard these
Phenomena as interesting but no more
to be relied upon than the pretty story
OF the ground hog and his shadow.
The fact is" says DR.. A. K Fisher,
OF the Biological Survey, I'VE have no
proof that animals are supplied in ad-
vance with instructive warnings of
storms or cold weather. On the other
nand, there is good deal of proof
that they do not know in advance
about weather conditions. If they did,
there would be fewer catastrophies in
the animal world.
Weather changes often overtake
olrds, for instance, with tragic results
II birds could sense storms far ahead
we would not hear of 100000 Lap
land longspurs being beaten to the
ground in driving storm in Mime
sofa. This incident occurred in the
spring when these birds were flying
north. They were caught in the gale.
After it was over, psychologists meas
ured the area of the frozen lake where
the birds lay dead and then counted
the birds to square yard According
to careful estimate, 100000 were
wiped out that day. When birds DO
seek shelter in a storm it is generally
because they can no longer keep up
in the cir. not because they sense the
storms approach"
Early migration of birds is common
ly accepted as an infallible sign that
winter may be expected at once Birds
really migrate, DR.. Fisher says, not
because they anticipate cold, but be-
cause the food supply is disappearing.
ual in the fall it may mean that win
ter is setting in and destroying their
chances of getting food, or it may
mean that less of the food needed by
those particular birds is available. Or,
as third supposition, there may be
unusually large flocks of the birds in
a locality and the food supply is not
lasting so late as usual
What Makes Fur Grow.
By the same specious reasoning, it is
sometimes asserted that animals are
provided with thicker fur in prepare
ton for a severe winter. The facts,
so far as science has studied them, are
that animals do have thicker fur in
cold winters. Animals in very cold
climates have thicker coats than sim
liar species farther south This is
well-recogniZed fact in the fur trade,
where furs from the far north bring
much higher prices than pelts from
warmer ATTITUDES.
The overlooked fact here is that the
warmer coat is furnished by nature
after the cold sets in, not before.
Roughly speaking, the cold stimulates
the skin to produce thicker fur. Yet
reports of thicker fur on animals in
