Basil Santoine's bedroom was so
nearly sound-proof that anything
going on in the room could not be
heard in the hall outside 1t, eve close

approached these doors, listened

Eaton waited while she went to n

her hands-in a position TO watch
both Eaton and her father while they

"Rather, I was careless"
you were careless?" Santolne
smiled derisively. Perhaps you
were-in one sense. In another, how
ever, you have been very careful, Ea-

as though the attempt to run you

A TWISTED FOOT
is MADE NORMAL
Electricity and an Operation Cure for
Infantile Paralysis. Strengthened by
Surgeons Treatment.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-The first
cure at the Broad street hospital OF
infantile paralysis by treatment OF
electricity and an operation and re-
setting OF bones was announced today
by Supt. A. ]. Barker Savage.
The case is that of Richard Mason,
aged IA, of Flatbush. A year ago his
foot was twisted out of shape and he
limped as a result of having the dis
ease when a child. For six months he
was given electrical treatments to
strengthen the nerves and muscles be
lore the operation could be made.
Otherwise, the bones would not re-
main in place.
The operation was performed Nov
ember 9Th by DIR. Walker Brickner.
He rectihed the position OF the astrag-
illus bone in the right foot and other
bones that had been pushed out OF
place by the use OF the foot in its
diseased condition.
The cast was removed a few days
ago and Richard has since been exer-
cising the foot with the aid OF a pair
of crutches. A specially constructed
shoe is being made that must be worn
until normal strength returns.

Clean Kidneys
By Drinking
Lots of Water
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys if
Bladder Bothers or
Back Hurts

Eating too much rich food may pro-
duce kidney trouble in some form, says
a well-known authority, because the
acids created excite the kidneys. Then
they become overWorked, get sluggish,
clog up and cause all sorts of distress,
particularly backache and misery in the
kidney region, rheumatic twinges, severe
headaches, acid stomach, constipation,
torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and
urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, begin drinking lots of good
water and also get about four ounces of
lad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and
your kidneys may then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for years to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to activity; also to neutralize the
?cids in the system so that they no
.onger irritate, thus often relieving blad-
der disorders.
lad Salts can not injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to help keep
the kidneys and urinary organs clean,
thus often avoiding serious kidney dis
orders BY all means have your physi-
clan examine your kidneys at least twice
a year.

ALL SNOWFLAkES
ARE Different
VERMONT MAN HAS PHOTO
GRAPHS OF OVER 1000 ICY
CRYSTALS. OTHER FACTS.

JERICHO, Wits the open sea-
son for snowflake hunting in the
Green mountains and Wilson A. Bent
ley, 81, self-made scientist, writer,
farmer, piano teacher and lecturer, is
happy
For SO years he has been chasing
fakes and Shooting" them with his
camera with favorable luck. But his
catch this winter seems to be the best.
When the storm is heaviest he sal
lies forth with his mittens and wooden
tray. If luck is with him he catches a
few choice specimens near his home
and then rushes back to his labora-
tory. There he slips off his gloves,
puts on cold pair, impales the flake
on feather, transfers it to a cold
glass slide, slips it under microscope
and brings his camera into position.
Snowflake Designs Used in Bakeries.
If the flakes are thick and solid
they may last a whole day for pho
tographic purposes; If not, Bentley is
out of luck. During a favorable win
ter he gets about 800 fakes. In all he
has more than 1000 pictures, which
make the largest snowflake photo
graphic collection in the world.
OF what practical use are these pict-
ures?
They are used as patterns" Bent
ley explains. "They have come to be
used extensively in art schools, par
ticularly in the class rooms of Bos-
ton. No two fakes are alike. Nature
never repeats.
Silk manufacturers use them as
patterns for ties and dresses. Jewellers
fashion delicate designs from ideas
they get in snowfakes. Even biscuit
makers are beginning to transfer ma
lures handiwork to their cookies"

American People Are
Now Buying More Stamps
In Midst of History's Largest Post.
Office Boom. Billion More Sold.

The biggest demand for postage
stamps and stamped paper in the his
tory of the United States is in full
swing. Postofice department officials
take it as an indication OF improving
business throughout the nation.
A billion more stamps were issued
during the last six months than dur
ing that period year ago, and val
ues showed $30,000000 increase,
leading officials to believe there will
be no annual postal deficit at the end
of the fiscal year in June. A year ago
the deficit amounted to $60,815, 400.
Orders for postal cards in carload
lots have been received, the demand
being larger than ever before during
a similar period. One firm in the Unit
ed States recently bought 100000
pre-canceled stamps.
Demand for stamps has been so
heavy it has been impossible to keep
ND with it, and as result the reserve
supply has fallen 200,0O0,0O0 below the
figure set as a safe margin.

The first question which occurs to
the cotton farmer contemplating pois-
oning is whether it will pay to do SO.
From the following any cotton grow
er should be able to determine the
question for himself:
1t will pay to poison
If the weevils are really inJurng
your crop seriously; and
If your land is sufficiently fertile to
WELD at least one-half bale per acre
with weevi injury eliminated; and
If your farming organization is such
that you feel assured that the poison
application will be made at the right
time and in the right manner; and
If YOU are willing to spend the full
amount necessary to provide an ade-
ouate supply of busting machinery
and poison
You should not poison il the cost
OF the calcium arsenate, the cost OF
the labor to apply it and the depre-
citation on the busting machines will
total more per acre than the current
value of 100 pounds of seed cotton.
Hand guns should be figured as de-
preciating 100 per cent in season
and the larger machines about - per
cent
The next extremely important ques-
ton is that Of the busting machinery
which should be used. Extensive eX-
perience has shown that it is impossi-
BILE to get satisfactory results by us
ing makeshift devices to apply the
poison. and the only safe procedure is
to provide an ample supply OF the
specialized dusting machinery which
is now on the market for the treat
ment OF cotton for the control of the

types, prices and capacities are now
being manufactured which meet the
Requirements and circumstances OF al.
