BELIEVES IN
GOLDEN RULE.
WAsECA DOCTOR GIVES FARM
PURCHASER DISCOUNT
OF $4,000.
ALSO AGREES TO PAY TAXDs
NEXT THREE YEARS,
SOME GIFT.

In view of the widespread practive
Of money-kings throughout the country
to tighten their strangle-hold on their
debtors and demand the last ounce OF
the pound of flesh in truly Shylockian
fashion, the following story, originally
published in a recent issue of the
Waseca Herald, is indeed very refresh
ing, for it proves, thai there are wealthy
people although they may not be
very numerous who still have heart
that has not turned to stone. Read
the story and then compare it with con-
ditions in New Ulm and elsewhere
Here it is:
Receives $4,000 Gift.
To be handed a present of $4,000
was the pleasant experience of Max
|Schoenfeldt of Wilson township, last
Friday. The sum was not handed
over in cash, but he,was given receipt
for, that amount in payment on his
farm, which meant the same thing to
him.
Something like two years ago,
Schoenfeldt bought the DR., Muede-
king farm in section 29, Wilson town
ship, at price of $4,000. He made
small payment down and, as prices
and crops had been good, he expected
to have easy sailing. But when the
bottom dropped QUO of farm price, this
year, things looked gloomy for Mr..
Schoenfeldt, his good wife and little
children.
Shows Generosity.
Consequently, when he received a
notice to meet DR.. Muedeking in Wa
SEGA, last Friday, he came to town
with gloomy forbodings. Imagine his
surprise when the Doctor, instead of
demanding what was due him, gave
Schoenfeldt a receipt for $4,000 and
agreed to pay the taxes on the farm for
the next three years. Anyone but a
rugged young farmer would have died
of heart failure under the circum-
stances.
DR.. Muedeking is we'll known eye
specialist, who lived in Owatonna for
a generation and now resides in Min
neapolis. He felt that he was better
able to take the losses, due tothe drop
in prices, than the man he sold to and
acted accordingly. This world would
be much better place to live in, if we
had lots more men like him.

MATERNITY BILL
BECOMES A Law
sHEPPARD-ToWNERA ACTADDED
TO FEDERAL STATUTES
BY CONGRESS.
SIX STATES, ANTICIPATING
glas ADOPTION, PASS NEEDED
.-E4t9 ''siaa}
- LEGISLATION.

President Harding and Congress
combined to give the women of the
nation real tine of thanksgiving in
putting on the statute books the
Sheppard Towner Act. The bill,
which passed the Senate July 22 and
the House November 10, was signed
Novem Der % by President Harding at
the Capitol. Women in Minnesota
add their appreciation of the work of
Congressman Walter H. Newton of the
Fifth Congressional District, who
helped tremendously in putting the bill
through its last arduous struggle to
appear on the floor of the House.
Demand Was Widespread.
Mrs. Maud Wood Park, president OF
the National League of Women Voters,
as chairn of the Women S Joint Con-
gressional Committee, directed the
activities of the IA national wom.en's
organizations in their legisla tive work
for the bill. 2 "The enactn:ent of TIE
Sheppard z owner measure fulflls tie
prophecy which the League of Women
Voters has constantly made, that, if the
bill were once permitted to come before
the House, it would carry by substan-
tial majority" said Mrs. Park. Our
prediction was based on a knowledge
of the great demand for the bills
passage throughout the whole country
and the enormous interest that women
have taken in it,
Congressman Winslow, chairman OF
the committee in which the bill so long
rested, stated on the floor of the Horse
that mot in 10 years had there been
such interest manifested in bill as
has been shown in the Sheppard
Towner measure.
Six States Take Action.
Six states, anticipating the passage
of the bill, have passed legislation
authorizing their state health CT well
fare authorities to cooperate with the
Federal Government, and among the
first to do this was Minnesota. The
other five states ready to undertake
the administration of the funds avail
able are. Pennsylvania, New Harp
shire, New Mexico, South Dakota and
Delaware
Minnesota is now in position to re-
ceive the $4,000 authorized to each
state the first year by the Act, as soon
as the actual appropriation of money
is made by Congress, and to SIS, 900 for
the ensuing four years.

FRACTURES SPINE.

Mrs. Albert Kamrath was called
from her home at Buffalo Lake to the
bedside Of her brother, Hubert Frei-
holz, of Fairfax, who is patient at
the Union Hospital here. He sus-
tanned a fracture of the spine, just be-
low the neck, by falling from load of
hay. The lower part of his body is
completely paralysed and his condition
is critical. Gustav Freiholz, father Of
Mrs. Kamrath, is nicely convalescing
from the effects of a recent operation.
Mrs. KamratH returned to her home
in Buffalo Lake, Monday.

vENTILATING THE HOME.

Just recently received letter from
young lady attending school, saying
that she has had a cold for several
weeks, and that she just sneezes and
coughs something "awful.i' She took
great pains to add that she couldn't
account for it, because she never slept
with her bedroom windows open To
you, Home Health Club readers, I'll
give you just one guess as to the cause
of the young lady's cold. To transpose
one of Solomon's sayings: what
would it profit one to gain a world of
knowledge, and, in doing so, lose his
health?''
If the value of fresh air were reck-
oned in dollars and cents, we would all
be figuring out ways and means of
getting it. Come to think of ie, it has,
indirectly, decided money value.
Health and clear brain are worth
money. Proper ventilation of the
home is requisite to both.
1t is true that most of our homes are
built without any thoughc to ventila-
ton. While the fact is regrettable, it
not valid excuse for living and sleep
ing in almost air tight rooms. Rooms
have windows and doors, and these can
be used in such al way, even in the
coldest Of weather, as to give fair
degreesof ventilation.
i 1t was walking along the street a few
days agoand noticed two men working
Outside on a house. One was7naiing
weather strips around the. windows
against the sash, and the other was
putting up heavy storm door. I was
reminded of an old song had heard
somewhere, the words of which ran
something like this: "a little more
work for the undertaken. A little
more work for the casket maker" J"
Colds, pneumonia, consumption-but
what's the use, you all see the point.
How can doors and windows be ar
ranged so as to permit ventilation
without permitting a draft through the
room? The best and most practical
device that l have found is the de-
fector If one cares to spend the
money, he can have them made of
plate glass. Most any one who can use
saw and hammer can make one out
of a pine board that will give as good
service as glass one; the only differ
ence being in the looks. Take a one
half to three-fourths inch board, six
to eight inches wide, and saw it the
length to fit into the window frame at
the bottom. One edge must rest on
the window sill. Elevate the other to
an angle Of about 60 degrees. Now
tack small cleats on both sides of the
board so as to hold it in position, and
allow it to be slipped in and out as de-.
sired. The edge resting on the window
sill may be planed to the proper angle
so that it will set firmly.
You see now the window can be
raised from a raction Of an inch to
five or six inches, and there will be no
draft through the room as the air is
DETECTED or thrown upward toward the
ceiling.
A window on the opposite side of the
room may be lowered from the top,
thus securing ventilation. Suppose
there is only one window in the room,
use the defector and lower the top
sash. While this will allow only poor
circulation of air, it is great deal
better than none.
You see, in getting ventilation, the
idea is to have the intake near the

Home Health Club Notes.
Dear Doctor: / am troubled with
hiccough. s Have had il for three
years.. am u years old. Have a
good appetite and feel well. An at,
tack comes on, by. a flow Of mucus, Or
saliva, which later becomes frothy.
After three. or four days the trouble
stops, and I am free for three or four
days. I have never heard Of but a
case or two of such continued attacks.
Mrs. S. S. G..
Answer: Your case is a very un-
usual one, and will require skillful
treatment to effect cure. l once
heard of a similar case in Chicago
hospital which had resisted all drug
treatment. Finally an Osteopath was
called and in few treatments was able
to stop the trouble entirely. Some
trouble was found in the neck, which
was irritating the nerve that controls
the action of the diaphragm. | would
advise you to consult an Osteopath.
Sometimes teaspoonful doses Of onion
juice, or very few drops of oil Of
cloves on sugar will stop an acute at
tack. In Volume No. 2 of the Home
Health Club books a number of simple
measures are. given, including de-
scription of the iOsteopathic treatment.
Dear Doctor: When / was " years
old I had the .1flu." Ever since that
time have been bothered by pleuresy
more or less and my back is quite weak
most of the time. I am now 20 years
old, five feet two inches tall and weigh
about 108 pounds. Have never
weighed much over 110 pounds. This
past summer and fall l have caught
cold very easily and sneeze often. Will
be very grateful for any information
you can give me as to what should do.
Have read your letters to people in our
family paper and know they are nearly
all helped. I have asked my folks
to buy your club books.
Miss A. R.
Answer: If you purchase Volume
2 of the Home Health Club books and
you follow the method Of treatment de-
scribed in it under the heading of
Catarrh, also under the chapter en-
titled Consumption, you will be able to
do very much for yourself. The Eng
lsh edition costs Sc. 90 and the Swedish
$3.50. I am sending you catalogue
describing all Of the Home Health
Club books. This book would be
worth more, to your family than any
thing which they. could buy for, that
amount of money, tsas it would save
them many doctors bills. Now, in re-
ferring to the chapter on Consumption,
the simple method of treatment di-
rected under that heading would be
~ < Z =
beneficial in your case and prevent any
disease of that kind You would
also be greatly benefited by avoiding
the eating Of candy, sugar, cakes, pies
and any other foods made: with sugar,
including jams, jellies and preserves.
You should make a practice of eating
freely of fresh raw fruits and raw vege-
tables.

I have great dog.

He wagged his tail feebly.

Haley Sacrificed Honor To Aid Friend

4
Springfield, Mo, Nov. President
Harding will be petitioned by the
American Legion of Missouri to wipe
out the stain of dishonorable dis
charge from the United States army
given to Harry w. Haley, who served
in prison for his wartime buddy.
The story of Haleyts sacrifice is
unique in annals of the world war.
Twice wounded while serving with the
Canadians in France and later a pri-
soner in Germany, he had returned to
Canada after the war to enjoy his COM
Tort. On the eve of his wedding he
sacrificed his sweetheart and his liberty
for the comrade who had saved his
life on the battlefield Wounded and
left in No Mans land Haley was
slowly dying from loss of blood when
he was picked up by Private Thomas
G.. Jones, an American After taking
his buddy to safety, Jones disappeared.
Back in the lines again, Haley was cap
tured by the Germans and lost all trace
OF his rescuer On May 20, 1921, Haley
arrived at the home of his sweetheart
in a Canadian city His wedding was
to occur at s O'Clock and the guests
were assembled Then Private Jones
reappeared He had deserted from the
army at Fort Slocum, N. Y, because
they were going to send him back to
Germany, he said. He was suffering
from mustard gas burns and had a wife
and two children dependent upon him.
Haley acted quickly Telling Jones to
return to his wife and keep quiet, he
informed his 6ance of his intention
She declined to wait while he served
the term Jones would have to spend in
prison An hour before the time OF
the wedding, Haley took a train for
81. Paul, MINI Going up to the first
policeman he met. he declared he was
Private Thomas G. Jones, wanted by
the American army for dcsertiou.
In trial by court-martial at Fort
Crook, Neb, Hlley stuck to his story
and under the name OF jonc, was sen
rcuced TO be dishouorably discharged
and to serve six months in Lcaveu-
worth prison When he lacked but
is days of serving The term, the au-
thortes learned of the substitution by
checking linz prints and descriptions.
