ONCE UPON A TIME
THERE WERE NO DOCTORS!
The Doctor Was Not Much Needed Until Folk
Began to Break Natures Laws.
Doctor, Prsseh Prevention I, Bett.r Th,n Cur..

Doctors Preach Prevention Is Better Than Cure
Ninety per cent of all disease is
preventable, so doctors say. Eat
simple food, exercise wisely, sleep
sufficiently, and-what is vitality i'm
pOrtant-make sure of the daily
regular, thorough elimination o.
body waste, and the chances are nine
to one that you Will keep well, work
efficiently and enjoy life. Bowel
elimination Of food and tissue waste
Is all-important. But in case of ir-
regularity, disordered or imperfect
action do not make the common mis-.
take of taking harsh, violently acting
medicines, with the idea of forcing
the bowels to act. Nature believes
in mild methods. She responds best
to persuasion.
So in selecting a simple remedy to
regulate and assure proper bowel
action, you should not use harsh OF
violently acting remedies, no matter
how much has been claimed for
them. You should choose some we'll
known, time tested, trial proven
remedy, that has made its reputation
by being used for many years, by
all sorts of people, all over the world.
Take Beecham's Pills for example.
Beecham's is a household word, has
been for many generations. Beech
ans Pills is a household remedy,
has been for over half century. People
not only take Beecham's but recon-
mend Beecham's to their friends.
Their use is handed down from
father to son or from mother to
daughter, from one generation to
another. Did you ever hear any
complaint or criticism of Bescham's?
Isn't that a pretty powerful endorse
ment Of their worth? Druggists
are glad to sell Beecham's.

HOW ONE LITTLE GIRL LEARNED
TO READ g.

(By Eva NJ. Happen, Ph. D., An
thor of The Children's Hour, Folk
Stories and Fables.l =,
I have never taught child to read,
but know how one little girl learned;
and in spite of all the theories and al
the ssmodern methods" I still think
that it was the best way IN the world:
The child had alphabet blocks, and
when she asked what the marks on
them meant, she was told the names 8
of the letters, and she learned them,
lust as she learned the names
of common objects, such as, char;
spoon, table, dress, etc. Her father ana
mother did not care to have her learn
to read; they thought it was quite as
we'll for her to be interested IN roses
and ants and little brooks and trees
and dolls, and they were not afraid
that she would be slow in learning to
use books when the time came.
Meanwhile, they read aloud to her.
especially story telling poems; and
when they read. she always looked on
the book. Gradually it came to her
mind that group Of letters stood for
a spoken word, and she began to point
to each word as it was read aloud:
She learned the verses by heart Of
course from hearing them read so
often, and before long she was saving
them over by herself, making believe
that she was reading, and pointing to
the words as she smoke them. she
lost count occasionally. and in her
'sWhy. Phoebe, are you come SO
soon ?',@she sometimes read "W-h-y"
IS tsFkJg be,1 or "y-o-u' as come"
Sometimes she spelled word aloud
and asked what it was or what it
meant.
She was especially fond Of the
Blackberry Girl" and before her
father and mother realized that she
was doing any more than reciting it
she had learned to read its twenty
one stanzas. Moreover, in readinc
th:sss she had learned some two hun
dred and fifty words, and could recog.
1ize them anywhere; she knew from

vived at the Lyceum Theatre in 1917
"No such English has been heard in
any other American play I know Of
The speech, which Moody has given his
men and women-barring one or two
bits of rhetoric and one or two. OF
bookishness-is a marvel Of variety
melted down to simplicity. In this
language they say the most every day
things, they can be picturesquely hu-
morous, they can be imaginative, they
can easily attain beauty. It is as en-
crossing today as when it was first
given. 1t may exasperate you, but it
never let's your attention wander"
Richard Burton of the University
of Minnesota says in his book 1.-THE
New American Drama" that the scene
between Client and Ruth in the last
act, is very beautiful poetry indeed
Mr.. Moody's second play, 1.-THE Faith
Healer" is said by critics to be SUI
perior in technique to "The Great Di-
vide," but it was not a stage success
when presented in New York in 1909.
Mr.. Burton, mentioned above, thinks
that it may have been presented be-
fore it's time. He is always heretical
enough to think that the decision of
a Broadway audience as to what plays
are good and what are bad should not
be accepted as final. To it, however,
was granted an honor never before
granted to a play by contemporary
American playwright, that of being
produced at Harvard under the aus
pieces of the University.
Coo,o o,s%;oo w ooy,, ~, ~, &c
play, shave only good things to say of
it. The following is from the New
York Evening Post: The work is one
of rare quality, substantial addition
to the small, but increasing body of
literary Am erican drama. The sub
iect is of wide and contemporaneous
interest to the scientific inquirer as
we'll as to the religious enthusiastic it
is original in conception and often
powerful in executions; it contains pas
sages pregnant with thought and
glowing with poetic imagination"
Hermann Hagedorn in an article
written for "The Independent" in
1913 ascribes the weakness in MoodN's
plays to his attitude toward life. He
says that Moody saw all creation in
the light of the eternal struggle be-
tween the things of the flesh and the
things of the. spirit and that in his
works he set" himself the impossible
task of .reconciling the spiritual and
the material. He considers "The Faith
Healer" psychological impossibility
as no man can pursue a human pas
sion and at the same time. SUCCESSFULLY
cleanse the multitude with the pure,
fire of his faith. :.
Moody's death in 1910 was real
blow to American letters. Even those
critics who found faults in his plays
agreed that they showed possibilities
IF something, really fine. One critic:
writing in 1918, says that his plays
stand no chance of enduring and that
he permanence of his reputation must
rest upon his poems. But Mr.. Burton.
whom I have quoted above, says: 1T
would be depressing thought with
regard to the dramatic future in
America not to believe that so fine a
piece of, dramatic literature as this
asst Moody play was not to be in the
end on our regular native repertory."

FARM ACCOUNT
!. SCHOOLS POPULAR

e The demand for Farm Account
Schools has BEEN greater than it was
possible to meet in, North Dakota dur
ing this winter: Approximately 100
schools have been conducted IN more
than 30 countless Account books for
farm record keepii,gehave been in such
demand that more than 5000 have
been distributed. D..
The schools have BEEN one-day SEES
sions at which farmers have learned
how to make the, necessary entries IN
a simple record so that the informa-
ton is availablec for income tax re-
porting as we'll as: for the purpose OF
studying the farm BUSINESS. As a
basi for st-of-productlon calcula-
tions the financial statement thCt
made available is Of" great Importance.
Arrangements are being made thru
county agents and county farm bu-
reaus so that instruction can be- con-
tinued throughout the year through
the development of the community
plan of organization of the Farm Bu-
reau. 1t will thus be. possible for a
large number of farmers to complete
the years record. Exceedingly valu-
able information of practical use to
every farmer will be, obtained.
There are four. fundamental eco
nomic factors or conditions, among
others, which may be determined by
information made, available from the
records:
What is the right size of farm for
most profitable operation in given
community? f@
What is the most profitable degree
of diversity; that is,s how many diff
forent crops and classes of stock
should be included ir the farm organi-
cation to bring the greatest profit?
What type Of farm should be devel-
oped to be most; pruftableS that is:
what shall be the main big ENTERPRISE
on the farm to make the whole farm
most profitable :?
2 What is the standard Of production
or crop index :? That is, what is the
average yield, who makes more than
average yield, and how is it done and
at how much profit? FL
None of the above questions can be
definitely answered at present because
of lack of information.
Arrangements are being made for
charging the Farm Management De.
partment in order that the demand
for this work may be met and also
that the cost of production studied can
be materially extended.
