Decency in Coal Business.

The National Retail Coal Merchants associa-
ton has informed Secretary Hoover that as
result of his fixing the maximum price of coal
at the mine at So. so a ton there will be an in
crease in the retail price of much as s1.75 a
ton. One reason for raising the price of coal
is probably as good~as another but this is Ger
tainly curious situation. The object in es-
tablishing a maximum price is to keep prices
from rising above the level sea, in case they
should show any such tendency. Yet it is as
sumed that the mine owners Immediately will
take the establishment of the limit as permits
sion to avail themselves of 1t and make it the
minimum price well the maximum. This
has been, indeed common practice in such
cases in the past. Secretary Hoover bluntly
announces that he will not stand for it in this
case. and neither will he stand for retailers
raising their own prices in anticipation of
such rise at the mine, and blaming it on the
mine owners. The pubic is with him in this
matter. What the people want to see, above
everything else, is a reign of decency and mod

x.Ray for Infected Tonsils.

A-hay Tor lnlecte1 IohSiiS.
According to q recent report by
DR.. w. d. Witherby, X-ray treat
ment of infected tonsils and aden-
oids is not only safe and permanent
in effect, but will more thoroughly
eradicate the infection than will
surgical extirpation of the tonsils
and adenoids, the eradication Of the
infection being accomplished by
very small doses of X-ray applied at
two week intervals, about eight
treatments in the average case. DR..
Witherby remarks that the tom
sill (and adenoid) tissue is lynn
phatic tissue mainly, and this lynn
phatic tissue is an embryonic tissue
which is readily caused to shrink
or atrophy by X-rays.
This shrinkage of the overgrown
or thickened tissue brings about a
natural drainage of the crypts or
pockets in which the well known
streptoccus turks Aha, it is L,
not Witherby, who brings this hor-
rible accusation against the germs.
They Turk in the tonsils, not on the
surface. There is probably nothing
to be gained by using antiseptic
substances in gargles, so far as in
fected tonsils are concerned, for the
germs cannot be reached by an an
tiseptic- They lurk within the
crypts which are long, deep and in
hypertrophied or enlarged of old
shrunken tonsils, tortuous, so that
even the physician or specialist
cannot follow the villainous strep-
tococci to their lairs and treat them
to a germicidal bath. l am anxious
to make a distinction between
streptococci lurking in the tonsils
or in the tooth sockets and wagner
microbes lurking" under the what

house the germs in the tonsils may
at any time find their way to the
heart valves, to the joints, to the
gall sac, or to the appendix and

Lessening of Craftsmanship Standards

Secretary of War Weeks declares that the
legislative branch of our national government
probably never has been at lower ebb than
it is today We might expect such a charge
from some civilian, but it comes as a surprise
from member of the presidents cabinet
Congressman may well wonder whether Sec
rotary Weeks is speaking with the approval of
the president The secretary finds that the
direct primary is responsible for the lessening
of the standards of craftsmanship in congress-
He halds that the direct primary has SO palp-
ably lessened the standard of men willing to
serve in public affairs that prompt action
should be taken to greatly modify or repeal it
Which isn't very much of a compliment to
members OF congress, nor is the statement
likely to be taken by the electorate as favorable
comment on their ability to intelligently gov
ern themselves
Then the secretary doesn't take kindly to
the with which the public adopts amend
ments to the constitution. He thinks the peo-
pie are not sufficiently educated upon the is
sues involved in the amendments proposed.
He speaks Of reforms and reformers of the
professional type who are rushing about try
ing to reform everybody, and deplores the
work they are doing in creating false impress
sions and putting through false doctrine. Mr.
Weeks is talking after the fashion of Leslie NJ
Shaw, former secretary OF the treasury Mr.
Shaw has been speaking on all occasions, es-
pecially on the chautauqua platform, telling a
dire tale Of the fall of representative govern
ment and the setting mp OF social democracy.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Vaivular Heart Disease.
1 would like to have information
about valvular heart disease Is
this dangerous? How does it af-
feet person? MRS. j. Z.
Answer-Your query is rather
difficult to answer. l can imagine
no benefit to you If l should tell
you valvular heart disease is dan
gerous, for example. Nor can l i'm
agine it would do you any good if
l were to give you list Of symp-
toms of valvular heart disease to
try out in your caselassuming it is
your case you have in mind. l have
a little pamphlet l send to readers
who have this trouble, but not to
readers who seek to find out
whether they have heart disease.
Your own physician is the only one
who can determine whether you
have valvular disease and intelli-
gently direct you as to general
treatment and hygiene.
An Alkaline Bath.
Would a warm bath in water
containing a considerable quantity
of soda be injurious to the system ?
Hope to see the reply in your col
umn soon. 1 have used the soda and
someone told me it has thinning
qualities. A. r. c.
Some one spoofed you
then. The bath would not be in
furious, in fact, such a bath is
sometimes very soothing in cases of
skin disease associated with dry
ness and itching of the skin. But of
course it won't reduce weight. 1t is
silly to imagine any kind. of bath
will reduce weight.
Asparagus.
We have always supposed that
asparagus was healthful. Recently
we read that it is not.
MRS. w l. C.
Answer-As an appetizing relish,
and a source of vitimins, iron and
roughage and filler, asparagus is
certainly healthful food. The
only serious objection I see about
asparagus is that SO much of it has
apparently succumbed to senility
before it arrives at market,
Facial Def0rmity From AdenoidS.
Kindly state whether enlarged
tonsils and adenoids can cause the
jaws and nose of the person to be
deformed, and whether the deform-
ity is permanent if the tonsils and
adenoids are removed. D. R.
Answer-Yes. The deformity is
likely to be permanent if the OBJ
struction, whether tonsils or ade-
noids, is not removed in early
childhood.

The Dog Family.

Fashions in dogs are changing. You may
have noticed lately that the majority of lost
and found ads, dealing with CANNES, are for
Airdales that have strayed from home The
Airdale craze IS refreshing, after the epidemic
of diminutive dogs that looked like a cross be-
tween a starved rat and dwarf giraffe. Pop
ularity Of different breeds of dogs seems to
travel in waves. There was an epidemic OF
hounds long ago, when a man had little social
standing unless his kennels housed at least
five Pug dogs had their day. So did water
spaniels, fox tarriers and Newfoundlands. The
Boston bull" was all the rage when the Glib
son girls clothes and huge. bullying pompa-
dour were in style. To psychologist each OF
these dog crazes reflected the trend of the
times" Now it's the Airdales day-probably
because he is expensive and one-man dog.
The dog-which in the wild state never
barks-is one of the few animals that have &C
companied man, in friendship, during the long
march out of barbarism. Originally dogs,
jackaIs, foxes and wolves belonged to the same
family The origin of the domestic tame
dog is lost in the mists that enshroud the period
of the cave man. Professor Shalers researches
in dogology led him to believe that dogs were
first domesticated TO provide emergency
food supply during famine. A more plausible
guess is that dogs tanned to help crafty
mans craving for submissive affection, also to
tickle his vanity. Our primitive ancestors, no
doubt, felt very much pleased with themselves
when they contemplated the dogs they had sub
dued from the wild state. Nevertheless, the
dog has accompanied man into so-called civili-
zation, and in return has been rewarded with a
maze of legislation concerning his legal status,
rights, ownership and conduct.
The oldest monuments of India and Egypt
show that ancient man reveled in ownership
of Fido, Towser, Bruno and Bog. Today we
have him in magazine stories and the news,
which correspond to the carvings on monu-
ments of long ago. How the dog has survived
mans passion for extermnating animal life
is riddle, despite the affection with which he
rewards kindness TO him. That's why the
study of dogs is inseparable from the study of
human nature.
