theology TO the thousand years dur

by the decisive victory Of Christ over
the adversary, and followed 10y n

fcient protein. Occasionally, O.
overweight is due to disorders of
certain glands, but generally it
means overeating and lack of
exercise.
A restricted diet given to re-
duce weight can easily be made
both appetizing and filling by
good preparation and the choice
of bulky foods. With few ex-
ceptions anyone can reduce both
safely and comfortably.
The early detection of sugar
in the urine is of great import
ance. For months or years this
may be the only symptom, and
if diet is begun early these cas-
cs almost always do well. The
2reat point is to begin to diet
before the person is aware OF
illness, and this can be deter
mined only by examinations OF
the urine once or twice each
year. Even more delicate tests
are now easily made, and if PEG.
pie can be induced to take these
examinations even when not
feeling sick, both the frequency
and the number Of deaths from
diabetes can be very much less.

How to Avoid Diabetes.

Columbia, Mo-, Nov. 1.-Di-
abetes is a disease seen chiefly
after the age of So years, though
it may occur at any age, accord
ing to DR.. M. P. Ravenel of the
School of Medicine of the Uni
versity of Missouri, president Of
the American Public Health AS
sociation. Apparently diabetes
is on the increase in the United
States, and it is estimated that
one million persons suffer with
diabetes in this country. 1t is a
disorder of nutrition. the earli-
est manifestation of which is
the appearance of sugar in the
urine. The underlying cause is
injury to the pancreas, probably
by infections of various kinds.
The chief secondary, or exciting
cause is errors of diet, especial
ly the excessive use of sugar
and starch.
Persons who are much over
weight are especially liable to
the disease, and it is rarely seen
in those who are below the av-
erage normal weight. A tenden-
cy to the disease may be inner
tied, and those belonging to
families in which it has occur
red should avoid use of starch
and sugar, and keep themselves
below normal weight. In reduc-
ing weight diet and exercise are
the important factors. The d.
ct should be reduced only under
the advice of a competent ply
stefan or dietetist. The reduc.
ing diet should not be arduou,
or weakening. Fat cannot b.
made out of nothing, and nor
nal weight can be maintaineC

HARDING RESUMES
HIS WORK TODAY

St. Augustine, Fla, Feb. 10.-Back
vacation. President-elect Harding
waded into a vast accumulation Of
correspondence and other miscel-
laneous business that must be cleared
away before he can give serious
thought to final decisions on the per-
sonncl Of his cabinet and other major
problems. h.
Mr.. Harding returned t. st. Angus
tine last night from his h%ouseboat
cruise along the Florida coast and
established offices in a St. Augustine
hotel, which will be his home until
he leaves for Washington to be in
a~ugurated.
Only the most urgent communica-
lions have beer forwarded to him
during his trip and the stack Of UNI
answered kilograms and letters prob
ably will occupy virtually all of his
working time for the remainder of
the week.
While the president-elect was
cruising on the houseboat Victoria he
also kept as far away from his prob
lens as possible, and it maybe said
authoritatively that the most i'm
portant decisions Of the coming ad-
ministration, including the personnel
Of the cabinet, are but little nearer
contamination than they were three
weeks ago..
Definite selections are yet to be
made for practically all of the ten
cabinet positions and in regard to
most of them one guess seems as good
as another.

Tells of Conversation

1C1AS VI SOUVCESIlOu y
In further support of his state
ments Brinton told of a conversation
he claimed to have had with President
Hagan of the Observation-Disclosures
Bank in the course of which Hagan
attacked Brinton in connection with
the heavy loans which the Publishers
Service Bureau had obtained from the
bank.
Brinton said hat he had told Hagan
that he was no longer in charge Of the
Service Bureau. bug that he had gone
to Walter Liggett. who was his sue
cessor there, and that Liggett had ad-
mitted the large loans but had de-
Tended the policy of securing them.
This was the reason the league
heads determined to get control of
a bank, Brinton declared. 1T was
growing more and more difficult to
raise money or league paper, so
Townley declared they would have
to buy a bank. Hastings went out
and secuted around, and as a result
they decided to buy control of the
Observation-Disclosures" the witness
explained.
$50 after a final conference Hast
ings went to Fargo and bought con
troll, he was assisted by Porter KIM
ball."
Brinton was questioned as to the
letter from the transit of
the Bank, Of North Dakota, in regard
to funds sent to the Scandinavian
American bank which he had pro-
duced at the hearing of the house
committee Tuesday. Brinton said
attorney in st. Paul. and %intinlated
that he was not anxious to have Mr..
Lemke get his hands on it.
Near the end Of h hearing Brinton
was questioned as to the causes of his
break with Lemke and the other
league leaders, the effort apparently
being to show that the break, and his
attacks on the league chiefs had been
caused by their failure to endorse him
for the league nomination for either
lieutenant governor or congressman
Brinton promptly offered to produce
letters showing his feeling on these
points. Some of the letters, he said,
were in st. Paul, but some he believed
were in Bismarck, and could probably
be produced today.
The hearing adjourned with Brin-
ton still on the stand, and he will be
recalled this afternoon. it was under
stood.
Failed to Change Story.
Mr.. Sinkler's attack failed to cause
Brinton to change any part of his
story. Two poi1ts of weakness were
brought out. They were his inability
to state definitely the dates OF many
Of the events of which he spoke. and
his admission that his Knowledge OF
many statements made to him by
other persons. although in most cases
these persons were Lemke, Townley
J. r. Waters and others who were
at that time regarding which the wit
ness was testifying, high in the coun-
ellis of the league.
Brinton yesterday morning finished
for the time being at least his testi-
mony before the house audit com.
nittee.
