Found Guilty.

A Magistrates Court recently held
that we were guilty of "practicing
medicine without license" and we
appealed the case to the Circuit
Court
There is no provision on the Statute
OF Virginia by which Chiropractor
can get license by examination other
than the regular medical license, and,
as the Legislature does not meet for
nearly year from now-and it will
be impossible 70 get legislation be-
fore then-we have decided to GIVE
TREATMENTS FREE to all who are
In poor health rather than see them
suffer and die before we can get legis-
lative provision and protection for
our services
Surely no one can consider it q
crime to offer FREE AID to the suf-
fering and sick.
Dozens of folks in Shenandoah, and
adjacent counties are testifying that
they have regained their health
through Chiropractice after all other
tried methods had failed. Now is your
chance to put Chiropractice to the
test. r. B. MITCHELL,

NEcKHE HALTED A ROMANCE
Lovers Who Had Been Apart for
Forty Years Made Up When Man
Wore Woman's Present.

Forty years ago John Emmons and
Charity Timmons Of Bishopville, Del,
were twenty years old and sweet
hearts. With her own hands Miss
T1mmons made necktie as q gift for
her young gallant. The evening Of
the day he received It Emmons put 1t
on. He didn't like the colors and re-
placed it.
AS usual, he visited Miss Timmons
that evening, according to a Selby-
vile OelD dispatch to the Philadel-
phia Ledger. 1t was a nice summer
night. The moon revealed that he
was not wearing loves token and Miss
Ttmmons demanded the reason.
ITS too loud" replied the youth.
DO you mean you VIII never wear
1tF Then you don't love me-" sobbed
the girl, and she went into the house.
That apparently was the end Of tha
romance. Emmons went to Portland,
Ore, and prospered. AS the owner Of
a big department store In the far
Northwestern city, he returned to
Bishopyille last Christmas for visit.
1t was inevitable that he should
meet his former sweetheart In the VII
lage. Soon each learned that the old
love would not die; that each had con-
sidered the other the only mate and
that neither had married.
OF course, Emmons proposed. Miss
TImmons did not refuse him, but she
bought a tie as nearly like the one
that started all the trouble as she
could find. Then, when he wore it
without f1inching, she coyly murmured
yes" And so they were married the
other evening.

Shows kindergarten's Value.

The importance Of the Kindergarten
as an Anericanizing influence was
urged by Maj. Bradley Martin, presi-
dent of the National Kindergarten as
socjauon, at the recent regional cid-
zens' conference in New York.
The kindergarten" said Major
Martin, as obviously the ideal means
OF Anericanizing the family through
the child; as the child through sing
ing patriotic songs and playing games
with other children and receiving
moral and ethical instruction, not
only learns our language, but also
adopts our point of view and becomes
a patriotic citizen; and through
mothers meetings and home visits the
family is assisted by the kindergarten
teacher in the difficult task Of adapt
ing itself to the economic and social
conditions that it finds in this coun-
try.

BEWILDERING TO THE MIND
That Are Almost Beyond Com
prehension Of the Layman.

One great difficulty in the study of
astronomy is to comprehend the i'm
menstty of the distances and sizes in
volved. For instance, we can form no
conception Of the size or distance of
the sun.
Suppose there was a spherical shell
of the diameter of the sun. Suppose
a great genie should drop into this
shell. every second, night and day,
ball the size of the earth. How long
would it take TO fill the shell? Would
it take an hour, day, or week? In
fact, 1t would take two weeks, and
when full the shell would contain more
than 100000 earths.
Tie distance to the sun is 90 100000
miles. How long would it take a can
non hall to reach the sun, If shot from
the earth, and continued on its course
at a uniform velocity? In order not
to underestimate the distance some
might say year. In fact it would
than 100000 earths.
Automatically speaking, the above
distance is very short. The sun is our
nearest star. Strain the Imagination
by trying to comprehend the velocity
of light which would pass seven times
around the earth in one second of
time. Now stagger the brain by trying
to think of stars, so remote from US
that million years are required for
their light to cross the enormous abyss
that separates them from US. Think
of it! When that ray of light, which
now enters the eye, started on it's
course, perhaps there was no life on
this earth.-John Candee Dean in the
indianapolis News.

Cotton Stalks Will Furnish Paper.

The possibilities of cotton stalks as
q source of paper have long been sus-
pected and experiments in this direc-
ton have been made, but for one rea-
son or another it has never proved
quite practical.
The nearest approach to success has
been made recently, and 1t is an
nounced that there Is plant at
Greenwood, Mass, where so tons Of
paper are made every day from three
times that amount Of stalk.
Certain thin tubular fiber In the

ply of the cotton stalks Of the South
