Paddle Your Own Canoe" and Get Husky

MADISON, WIS.-Is he a white AvA man? That's what the freshmen are asking. Of course, in time his tan will wear off and the question will be answered. Well, anyway, by pad ding a canoe 1,200 miles this summer, travelling alone and earning his way, studying to occupy his time in camp, Milton H. Erickson, of Beaver Dam, a student in the University of Wiscon- sin, found a way to build up his health and prepare himself to continue his college course.
 Pale, underweight, convalescent from infantile paralysis, and almost too weak to walk any distance, he decided last June that he must do something for his health. Starting out alone in a canoe, with S490 in cash and a small supply of food, he padded until late in August-down the Yahara, Rock and Mississippi rivers, and back up the Illinois, Hennepin canal and Rock. He returned robust, strong and ready for college work.
 He earned his food along the way by cooking for campers. working for farmers, helping in fish market, and

They arrived in New York September Il, and have vis- ited acQuaintances of wartime days in New York, Boston, Pittsfield, Syracuse Buffalo, Chicago Green Bay, St. Paul and Omaha. From here they went to Colorado Springs, and then go to Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Los Ange- les, Las Vegas, Kansas City, St. Louis and Charleston. At each city they expect to meet the boys whom they knew in France.
 NJ. Danlos Is a Paris lawyer. He speaks no English and his wife speaks but little. Nevertheless they have had no difficulty In following their itinerary.

TALES FROM
 BIG CITIES
low Meet "Elsie Smith," Typewriter

Grammage last January signed a cer- tificate that he had formally vacci- mated Elsie" against smallpox. The certificate, signed personally by Gam mage, was the only vaccination cer- tificate signed by him in his five years at the hospital, the investigators say.
 The detectives, Investigating "Elsie" and her work, found that the pay checks were indorsed with that name and that below appeared the name "A. F. Webb" Both names were In the same handwriting. They had been put through a bank at which Webb does business, according to an official of the staff.
 And what do you suppose this off- cial goes on to say about "Elsie?' Why, merely this: "We have the state ment of several employees who say they were ordered to carry the name on the pay roll and to mark Elsie present every day. Elsie Smith did not exist. She was simply an L. O. Smith typewriter used in the office."
 Dr. Gammage denied all knowledge of any pay roll padding. Nevertheless Health Commissioner Bundesen, who is new to the job, asked pr. Gammage to take a leave of absence till 'Elsie" could be completely investigated. Dr. Gammage refused. So Health Con- missioner Bundesen suspended him.

The Canadians Are a Friendly People

rity for the yacht, the charterer left his automobile with Mir. Sovereign.
 Two weeks later the charterer re turned, told Mir. Sovereign that the yacht was in dry dock at Detroit, and, since he had concluded not to buy it asked for the return of his automobile
 Mr. Sovereign went to Detroit. The yacht was rot in dry dock, but marine records showed that it had registered going down through the Welland canal to Port COlbourne, Canada. The yacht was located at Toronto, but its recovery became a problem since the yacht had entered the port illegally.
 Sovereign gathered gang of roust. abouts and they swooped down on the yacht just as 1t was preparing to take on a cargo of 500 cases of whisky. The yacht had made several trips and had made a profit of S2OOOO for the smugglers.
 Posing as a runner returning with a cargo, Sovereign had not the slightest difficulty navigating the Canadian wa terways. Every one was friendly, even cordial.

)o Not Overcrowd the Poor Flivver!

Hammond here and demanded in a resolution that the city council pass an ordinance prohibiting the loading of automobiles to the point "that the girls have to sit on the mems laps" The meeting was called by Mrs. Ida B. Wise Smith, state president of the Woman's Christian Temperance union.
 A petition addressed to the city coun- cil, now being circulated, states that immoral conditions in Des Moines are largely due to practices in automo- piles and taxicabs.
 "We call your attention to the rapid ly growing evil of young girls riding In automobiles seated on the laps of young men," the petition reads. 'This leads to undue familiarity and the parked car evil"
 "We believe that these dangers to our young manhood and our young womanhood can be very largely pre- vented by the adoption of proper ordi- nances with adequate penalties pro hibiting the practices referred to-"
 Members of the city council have not yet indicated what action they will take upon the proposed ordinance.

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and bladder trouble and never suspect 1t.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease
 If the kidneys are not in a healthy con dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 Pain in the back, headache, loss of ann bition, nervousness, are often times symp- toms of kidney trouble.
 Don't delay starting treatment Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre- scription, obtained at any drug store, may be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.
 Get medium or large size bottle im- mediately from any drug store.
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., for sample bottle When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Advertisemen

CHICAGO.-The Windy City is hav- - ing a reform spasm-of sorts and all sorts of municipal graft stories are coming to light. Just now the common people are laughing over "Elsle Smith," It appears that "Elsie's" name first appeared upon the pay roll of the Municipal Contagious Disease hospital In October, 1921. She's been drawing $50 a month as a typewriter ever since. Her address was 2313 Fed eral street, which turns out to be an automobile salesroom.
 The superintendent of the hospital Is Dr. Arthur E. Gammage, who draws $3,6OO a year. A. E. Webb Is a stew ard at the hospital.

tistic. Such a dish is
 PIanked Ham With Eggs.-A slice of ham minced and moistened with cream sauce is spread on a fireproof platter with Impressions for each egg which is to be placed on it. Drop an egg in each small nest, season, place the dish in a hot oven to set the eggs. Serve corned beef hash in the same manner and garnish with pars- ley. A plank may be used. but must be very hot when the meat is placed upon it.
 Salad Anna.-Cut half-inch slices lengthwise of head lettuce. On these sections lay alternately segments of orange, grapefruit and tangerines from which all tough skin and mem. brane has been removed. Serve with French dressing beaten smooth with spoonful or two of catsup.
 Celery With Cheese Sauce.-Cook celery cut in small pieces until tender. Butter baking dish or individual bak- ing dishes, put in a spoonful of eel cry, some seasoning, then a spoonful of rich white sauce; cover with grated cheese, finish with buttered crumbs and bake in hot oven until thoroughly heated through.
 French pastry owes It's charm to its frivolous appearance, shape, color and decoration. The same ingredients used in the ordinary way would not ap- peal. We have (the most of us), not passed from the ginger-bread-man stage; we like the taste of food that appeals to the eye, imagination and color sense. The allurement of attrac- tive food draws us to out-of-the-way places, and the most popular places where food is served are those which cater to the magic influence of we'll prepared and well-garnished food.
 Stafford Sausages.-Put six ounces of lean beef through the meat chopper, add one small onion, two branches of parsley. Add one cupful of cold corn mush, one teaspoonful of salt, few dashes of cayenne, one half teaspoonful of poultry dressing {; mix well to blend. Mold into sausages and fry until golden brown in hot fat.

He could borrow
 money from an Edgeworth smoker

 "I went into the smoking car. I looked over the men and decided to tell my story to one of them. But which one? That was the question. It was answered quickly. A man pulled out a pipe. Hes the man for me, thought. But when he took a can of Edgeworth from his pocket, then knsu.
 "He lent me the trifing sum asked for, and in thanking him I mentioned that I was an Edgeworth smoker and that was what influenced me to speak to him, a perfect stranger.
 Perfect stranger!' he laughed. Not on your life. No pipe smoker is a perfect stranger to another-especi- ally if they both smoke Edgeworth.' !"
 There does seem to be friendship among Edgeworth smokers. We don't claim that the tobacco is responsible for this so much as the kind of men srho smoke EdgeWorth.
