 Physicians have long known that who ever could discover a remedy that would cause the food that one puts into the stomach to turn into good, rich, flesh making blood instead of going to waste, would also discover how to put healthy. muscular flesh on to thin, under-nourished people, and this has now been accom- plished.

Business at the Nerwlch post office for the quarter ending Oct. shows a gain of 10 Der cent. over the cor responding period of a year ago. This increase is to be seen in all depart
 nents of the office except in the sale of government securities such as war savings stamps and U. s. treasury certificates.
 The treasury department has called the attention of Postmaster John. F. Murphy to the falling off in this de- partment and has asked that an earn est appeal be issued to the public to invest their savings with the govern ment as the use of such funds Is or great importance to 1t, These invest nients pay about IA per cent. and the security is unquestioned. They can be cashed at any time with accrued interest, During the past few years many who had purchased war saw ings stamps were obliged to have them cashed before maturity. It had been the expectation of the government that current sales would more than balance withdrawals, but such has not prev ed to be the case. The treasury de- partment and the postmaster urge | these investments on the ground that it is a patriotic duty to help finance | the government and give government 1 securities the preference when tht returns are equal if not greater thar will be received elsewhere.

 LOVERS CRITICIsE QUARANTINE

The dog quarantine at present in force in this city was a subject dis cussed by several speakers when it was brought up by Wi1is Austin at the reg ular weekly monday luncheon of the Rotary club Wednesday at the Waure- gan house. MT. Austin called it one fo the most outrageous things that had ever been perpetrated in this city and said that a rabies scare was in the same class with talk about sea ser pents. The quarantine had not been put on by the state commissioner on do- nestle animals until seven weeks after a person had been bitten by an alleged mad dog. MT. Austin said he was not I talking for his own dogs. which could | be- well taken care of, but for the hun dreds of other dog owners and dogs whom the quarantine bore heavily on. | c. A, Gager, Jr., said he was in sym pathy with what had been said and mentioned that while the alleged case of mad dog happened last July, nothing was done for five or six weeks. J. N. Weymouth also spoke against the quar- antine, while Judge N, J. Ayling said he thought some possible benefit in the safeguard 1t furnished was to be con- sidered.
