Albanian Charged
With Killing Friend

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Oct. 29.-
Police were seeking a motive today
for the killing of r. o. Clayton by
Edwin r. Hicks, a friend of many
years standing, in a shooting af-
fray at the latter's home.
Clayton, police said, drove to the
Hicks home in a taxicab to look at
some lots he owns near there, and
Hicks walked out with a letter, de-
claring he "did not like what he had
written in it,
Hot words followed, and Hicks
fired three times, each shot striking

In asserting that taxes could be
reduced even though a bonus bill
were passed, Senator Curtis explain
ed that his statement was contin-
gent upon the expectation that the
bonus bill would be along the lines
passed by the last congress and
vetoed by President Harding. Such
a bill would involve an expenditure
of about $76 100000 the first year.

ACIDOSIS

She is suffering from acidosis. Acts miserable and looks
worse. Have you seen her lately? You would hardly know her
she has gotten so thin.
How often today one hears remarks like that, for acidosls
seems to be the disease of the day. How shall one guard
against it? First of course, refrain from eating acid produc-
ing foods. And by an acid forming food is meant not one
which is acid in its reaction, but one which produces an acid
condition during its m%etaboism in the body. This occurs IN
dependently of whether or not the food is or is not acid in it.
self. Acid producing foods are: meats, poultry and fish; nuts,
legumes and other foods of high protein content; some of
the fats and the cereal grains.
As harmful as is ill-chosen food there are other equally
as pronounced causes of acid condition. Lack of fresh air and
lack of healthful exercise is a potent factor in the promotion OF
an acid condition in the body.
But of quicker and more violent action than improper food
and the lack of air and exercise is indulgence in the unwhole-
some emotions of anger, worry and fear. These, says one ply
stefan, will turn the blood decidedly acid in a brief while.
Does not that last statement help TO explain the prevalence OF
acidois among the American people today9 The busy, rushed

Ind of the Queen of Sheba.
at means the knowledge of all
the herbs, and fruits and balms, and
spices; and all, that is healing and

gory in meats.
ut means carefulness, and inven-

lingness, and readiness of appliance.
1t means the economy of your great
grandmothers, and the science of
modern chemists; it means much
testing and no wasting. 1t means

ers,'"
That's what John Ruskin had to
say about 1t. John sat down a fairly
comprehensive set of specifications,
but there are a few things he over
looked.
Cooking means, in addition to all
the above, the temper of an angel
and the foresight of an army quar-
stermaster, to be serene when Friend

Boss home to dinner without prev

Cooking means patience with In

At the Ditmas

Reversing the usual order of
things, a prominent actor who wit
messed a p~re-showing of Univer-
sails latest production, "Merry-Go-
Round,' at once made application
for the book rights to this unusual
screen play and negotiations are
now in progress to this end.
The usual procedure is to pic
turtle popular books, but in this
case the opposite will be done, the
authors name not as yet ready to
be given out, as the negotiations
are not quite complete. But there
is no doubt but that they will be
quickly consummated.
So unusual is this reversal of the
usual that all book world is inter-
ested in the outcome, which will
prove whether screen stories made
into books are as successful as
books into screen stories.
"Merry-Go-Round" is now play
ing at the Ditmas Theatre.

Proper Foods

1t always seems most surprising
that there should ever be anyone
who can have the advantage of pure
and clean cows milk, who would
voluntarily choose a proprietary
food, but this is quite a common
practice. 1t is so much easier to
believe the advertisements of foods
that are bought in a can, than t.
put ones faith in ordinary cows
milk, water and sugar as a substi-
tute for mother milk.
