GIVE THEM THAT HOSPITAL
Est. Paul Dispatch)

Commander A. B. Carlson of the
North Dakota department., Amer

special purpose. General Frank T..
Hines, head of the Veterans bu-
reau, is also here and the North
DakOtans have him in view.
There purpose is to get gov
eminent hospital for North Dako-
tans in North Dakota. Minnesota,
South Dakota and Montana - the
other states OF the Tenth district

their disabled veterans. But when
the North Dakota disabled wet

he is compelled to leave home.
The government does not own d
single hospital bed in that state.
North Dakotans cling to their
own state, in sickness or in health.
They have an idea that North Da-
kotans regain health more quickly
in the clear, dry air of home than
anywhere else, and that they rest
easier with home folks around
them. Some of them actually pre-
fer to be sick in North Dakota
than to be convalescent anywhere
else.
Besides, North Dakota had more
casualties in proportion to the
number of men in action than any
other state. Having survived the

are asking, through their state
commandant and adjutant, that
they be given leave to be sick and
to be cared for at home. Why not?
Let them have that hospital. They
will keep on being sick until they
do. General Hines might just as

ON HEALTH
CARE OF THE FEET

AS most people know, but give
little attention, the type of shoes
worn and the fit of them are all i'm
portant factors in the comfort and
health of the feet.
Children between the ages of 9
and IA should be watched closely
and care taken in fitting them to
shoes. This is the period of great
est growth and the question of foot
expansion should not be forgotten.
Around the age of 13 children
girls in particular-are likely to be-
gin to get .fussy, about styles in
shoes, and from Ia to 81 is period
when this style idea gets most firm
ly implanted.

LETTER FROM SALLY ATHERTON
TO BEATRICE GRIMSH!AW
SUMMERS CnNTJNIIEn

After Mr.. Prescott received that
letter, dear Bee, from his mother-in-
law, he was grOuChy and nervous
and in the office very little. At last
| took matters into my own hands,
and one evening before Mrs. Burke,
whom you knew as Ruth Ellington,
l simply made the assertion that
there was nothing that would keep
him at home if he really wanted to
go and see his wife.
Mr.. Prescott could have killed me
with great glee, for he knew as l did
Mrs. Burke would write that to Les
lie. AS there was no other way out
of it, however, he departed with lit
tie son and little sons nurse yester-
day. .
don't exactly know what is going
to happen, Bee dear, for when John
Alden Prescott has his pride touched
and his ego r:icked little, he is
very hard to manage.
I'm alone in our department today,
and if l may say so, Pm rather lone
ly. John Alden Prescott is very
interesting study. He gives the kick
to my work which is more or less
monotonous.
Dear Bee, you're the very best wo-
man l have ever known, and l sup
pose it is because you are that kind
of woman, that have always an
uncomfortable inclination to tell you
all my most iconoclastic and damna-
bly, mischievous thoughts.
sometimes wonder, dear, If men
find us such a bundle of incongrui-
ties and foolish little vanities that
we find them. 1 presume they do,
for all these little incongruities and
vanities are very human.
Of course, l know the only thing
that makes us show the least bit of
divinity is love-love for our fellow
men. l don't believe I've ever loved
any one in the world, Bee, except
yourself and Sam. Sans love was
an ephemeral thing, glorious while

In old age a good shoe fit is even
more important. The foot having
attained its complete maturity is
very sensitive to changes in organic
life and the freest foot action should
be allowed.
Shoe filters and shoe statesmen
should be acquainted with the struc-
ture of the human foot and its va
rious peculiarities.
Different ages require different
shapes and different occupations
change the shoe requirement.
If the child arrives at maturity
with sound feet the chance for COM
fort in later years is good, provided
good shoe judgment is used.

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
INDIAN TORIES
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Now when this story begins it
isn't going to have anything to do
with Nancy or Nick or Mister Snip
Snap.
But before it ends it is going to
have a great deal to say about them.
Just you wait and see.
It's about Scamper and Scramble
Squirrel who were staying with their
grandparents in Maple Tree Flats SO
they could 60 to Meadow Grove
School and get an education, their
own house being too far away to
come such distance every day.
One Friday after school Scamper
and Scramble passed an Indian toby
tree. There it was, hanging all
over with long brown beans that
looked for all the world like cigars
or tobies.
Lets get some," said Scamper.
Lets agreed Scramble.
So up they climbed and pulled off
a whole bunch of the tobies and
stuffed them into their pockets.
Than they slid down again.
"Whatta you got? asked Billy
Bunny. hopping up.
"Tobies!" said the Squirrel boys
"Really ones?"
Goodness no! What do you think
Granny would say if she caught US
smoking. We should say not!"
Lets smoke 'em anyway, just
for fun" said Billy. "These old
things can't hurt flea. I've smoked
corn silk lots of times"
"All right! Got any matches ~
asked Scramble.
"Nope but I'll get some," said
Billy.
Billy ran into his house and got
the matches and come back. He
should have asked his mother, but
he didn't and that's where the
trouble began. For little hoys have
no business with matches and his
mother would have said mo"
But she was out in the garden, so
he reached up on the kitchen mantel
and got handful.
When he got back there was q
Wnole crowd there all waiting for
matches to smoke their Indian to-
bies. There were the three Wood
chuck boys and Cutie Cottontail and
just about everybody.
Well, the little rascals lighted
their make believe tobies and puffed
at them, but they weren't so very
good. After little while they threw
them away Git had been raining, I'm
glad to say, or they might have set
the woods on fire., and went on
playing with something else and for
got all about their tobies. .
But at supper time Mrs. Cracknuts
began to .sniffle and sniffle like
everything. \
"Boys!" she said severely.

New York, Sept. 19.-The major
ity of important men in New York
are those who have slipped into the
city, unnoticed, and who sneaked up
on success when it wasn't looking.
One of the most successful maya
zine publishers in this mecca Of pub
locations slept three nights on a
park bench and was fed life sustain
ing meals by a S sympathetic woman
when he arrived in New York.
When ready to walk back to his
home in Boston, detected by his fail
use to get on in the big town, he
won SIS by his wits and began a
career that has been unusual and
profitable.
He is James r. Quirk, editor and
publisher of one of the most prom
inent photoplay magazines.
With another newspaper reporter,
rich mans son in excellent finan-
cial standing, they had been refused
jobs by every city editor in New
York. Quirk bet "1-to-3" that he
could see any editor in New York.
At the time all New York was agog
over the disappearance of an actor,
facing criminal charge.
Quirk walked into a newspaper Of

HAVE A HEART, BRAZIL!
CCleveland Plain Dealer)

(LleVeland Pla1n Dealer)
The scent sandwich chased the
scent piece of pie into the obliv
ion of all but forgotten blessings.
Now a convention of restaurant
men is told that the scent cup of
coffee must follow. Brazil, it ap-
pears, is to blame. 1t seems a
long time ago that Scent eating
houses flourished, and coffee and
sinkers formed the staple break
fast for men whose pockets were
as flat as their stomachs.
Life among the quick and greas-
les won't be the same If Brazil
persists. Taking the time-honored
price tag off the Mocha mug takes
away its democracy. It's like
turning sandlot baseball into golf.
The coffee, may be just as good,
and the mug a little cleaner, but
charging more than nickel for It,
is as much lese majesty as it would
be to call the prince of Wales by
a nickname. A nation deprived Of
scent coffee might be in condi .
ton almost as serious as some of
the campaign orators would have
us believe.

Of votes.
More Paving Added
Petitions signed by far the
greatest majority of property own
ers affected were presented to the
city board last night calling for
the paving of Seventh Ave. N. w.,
from the north line of Main street
to the south line of Second st. N.
w., and for the half block on
Second street N. w. from Seventh
Ave. to the alley. Another petit
ion calls for the paving of First
st. N. w, from Sixth avenue to
Seventh avenue. This adds three
more blocks to the steady string
of contracts which have been a.
warded through the summer and
makes the fifth addition to the or
iginal "a block contract entered
into with the Woodrich Construc-
ton Go.
