CONSTIPATION (Continued)


 Yesterday we talked generally on constipation and told you of the two general clinical varieties-the atomic constipation and spastic constipation. The word atomic means without tone and it is applied to a form Of consti- patton in which there is lack of tone in the muscles in the intestinal tract, so that 1t has not enough expulsive power The atomic constipation is characterized by hard dry stools, but no fatulence (gas). or pain If this atomic type goes on long enough it may eventually irritate the intestinal mucuous membrane enough so that there is a low grade of inflammation with the production of a good deal Of mucous This inflammation may cause muscular spasms of the intes- tinal tract; that is why it is called the spastic type.
 The stools of this spastic type are apt to be ribbon-1ike and contain a and pain.
 Causes of Constipation.
 1. Insufficient quantity of solid food. There may be too little bulk to excite normal peristalsis (the worm like movement by which the alimen- tary canal propels it's contents). g. Too highly concentrated food: which are almost completely absorb ed.
 B. Insufficient fluids. 4. Astringetn foods or drink: checking the normal amount or mu cous and other secretions. 5. Indigestible foods which may bt 1 too hard and bulky 10 move rnrougT the bowel easily, or which may cause abnormal fermentation and thus hin. der peristalsis.

Mine Mules Long In Darkness See

I Eazleton, Pa, Aug. 1O-The coal mine mule, which ordinarily spends years of his life in the darkness of mine tunnels far underground, re- tains> his eyesight even though he does not use his eyes.
 So veterinarians in the anthracite region have determined following ex- animation of many of the mules which have been brought to he surface since the mines closed. last spring. With this announcement the veterinarians exploded a theory held by many for years-that because he did not have ny. use for his eyes, the mule lost his sight.

Five minutes later their stoNd chauffeur, his face betraying no in terest whatever in them or in the battle whose sounds had for a long time come to his ears, was proving the worth of his engine as they swept back to the Porte de Romain- ville

 She was troubled over his defec- ton, and he had difficulty in pre- venting her from leaving the crazy taxi-auto and coming with him. When they were at last out Of sight, he proceeded to the Prefecture and nonchallantly related his story. There followed certain interesting formalities which cast a light upon national psychology.
 First of all, Ilanes story was in- vesugated, and his casulties fetched in to the morgue and hospital. The delight felt by the police. who had longed yearned for the heart blood of Both Chicoq and the equally dan gerous but subtler Marecha1, was ad-

subject that has engrossed my attention for time
past 1t deals with the report of four very prominent
citizens of my State all Free Masons and active in that
fraternal order The report is made to Judge Paul j.
Mccormick of Los Angeles Roman Catholic citizen of
that city who had submitted to the Masonic committee
with full authority of the officer of the Knights
of Columbus in the United States complete copy of all
the work. ceremonies and pledges used by the Order of
the Knights Of Columbus for their full examination and
inspection That Masonic committee consisting of Motley
Hewes Flint thirtythird degree Mason and past grand
master of Masons of California formerly postmaster of
the city of Los Angeles and president Of of the
largest banks in that city; Dana Reid Waller thirty

BAR William Rhodes Hervey thirtythird degree Mason
and past master and master of Scottish Rite Lodge and
formerly superior court judge of Los Angeles County;
and Samuel E. Burke, thirtysecond degree Mason and
past and Inspector of Masonic district of the
