Edge continued. II do know, how

MI!ahOney Clan Starts
Automobile Trek
To Pacific
By International News Service

NEW YORK, April 3d.
Scores of neighbors and friends
yesterday shouted hearty hail
farewell as four automobiles
bearing seventeen members of
the Mahoney Clan started on
their caravan trail from
Jamaica, N Y, to the Pacific
coast.
AS the caravan got under
way movie cameras recorded
the manner in which Rex, the
German police dog; Bobbie, the
cat, and Jerry and Dick, the
canaries, who hit the trail also,
evidenced their approval of the
transcontiRental trek.
Three of the Mahoneys were
policemen here until few days
ago. Another brother, a bank
teller and two relatives and
their families are included in
the party, which carried a radio,
musical instruments enough for
a small-sized orchestra and all
the comforts of "a home on
wheels"
After one of the Mahoneys
had been ordered West for his
health, the entire clan decided
to accompany him and enter
business in Los Angeles.

PRESIDENT ASKS RULING
ON NITRATE RATE APPEAL

President Coolidge has asked At
torney General Stone for an opinion
on the status of the appeal OF
American manufacturers of sodium
nitrate for a higher tariff rate on
that product, it was learned today.
Efforts of the tariff commission
to raise the sodium nitrate duty was
blocked by importers who attacked
the validity of the flexible tariff
provision of the Fordney-McCumber
tariff bill. Their injunction against
the commission was over-ruled,
however, but the situation has be-
come so complex that the President
desires a legal opinion from the At
torney General.

WHEN THEY MARRIED YOUNG
In Medieval Times In England Babes
 In Cradle Were Wed

Modern opinion which is happily in favor of falling in love and of adult marriage, is often shocked by the air of business which pervaded match making in the days of chivalry, and by the many cases of grown men married to little girls not yet out of their teens.
 For reasons of property or to settle family feuds, or simply to assure their own future, babies in cradles were sometimes betrothed and even married {; all that the church required was that children should be free when they cams of age, at IA and 12 years of age, to repudiate the contract if they desired !,
 Nothing seems to separate modern England from the good old days so plainly as the case of little Grace de Saleby, years old, who for the sake of her broad acres was married to a greAt noble, and on his death two years lafer to another, and yet again, when khe was Il to a third, who paid 300 maeks down for her. There is an odd mixture of humor and pathos in the story of some of these marriages. John RigHhar- den, 8 years old, was carried to chi hkrch in the arms of a priest who co$xed him to repeat the words of matrim4nl but half way through the service Ethe child declared he would have to l9lrn no more that day, and the priest dps wered, You must speak little mofe, and then go play you

AT DON'T know how it is, but l ss don't seem to enjoy my food like
 I used to do," bemoaned Grand pa Jones, pushin gaway his plate of hot cakes and signing.
 His extremely modern daughter-in- law looked at him with shrewd bright eyes.
 Father" she said, abruptly, you're getting old. That's the trouble Don't try to eat lot of food like you used to when you were spry young fellow down on the farm. You had a lot of work to do then, hard, understanding work. You could eat a fat pork and fried potatoes and hot cakes and syrup for breakfast at four o'clock in the morning and get away with it, because your system needed lots of good, energy producing food.
 "Now, it's different. You sit around all day. Your only exercise is lit tie walk now and then down to the post office. You ride in a car instead of walking. Your teeth are not what they used to be and life seems discouraging.
 "Try eating some fruit and soft boiled egg and a slice of toast for breakfast. And don't eat again till you feel hungry. Eating is habit. A bad habit. Don't begin to get bad habits in your old age"
 While she was removing the break fast dishes her father-in-law sat re- garding her in silence.
 Presently he gave a long low whistle of approval and got out of his chair a trifle stiffly.
 q dunno but what there's a lot of common sense in what you say, Marty, he said, thoughtfully.
 He stopped eating hot cakes and fried ham and> felt better and younger.
 In old age there are inevitable changes which arise in the digestive and circulatOry organs of the body. The circulation is less vigorous. The rerv- ous system responds less quickly to ex- ternal stimulation. There are certain degenerations in the secreting organs, and as a result carbonate of lime and phosphates, derived from food, are apt to lodge in the tissues, causing a gen. eral stiffening up and decreased func' tioning.
 The muscular tone of the intestines is apt to deteriorate slightly. The cir culation becomes a bit sluggish, and there is a consequent reduction of the rate of absorption.
 In other words, as one grows old one slows down little in every way mentally (not always)? physically and as regards endurance.
 One tires easily and sleeps less heavily, and as a consequence sleeT means less in age than it did in youth
 One has less energy to expend. It ii only logical then to realize that ont requires less food. Many an old per son lives quite happily (and most com fortably) on a comparatively smal quantity of food.
 The amount of fat and starch in foot for older people may be considerabl! reduced, to the benefit of the eater Sudden changes in diet should b. avoided and intervals between meal should be heightened.
 Food, as one grows older, should b. modified, simplified and apparently re duced if one would be well.

MISS HANBY OF ATTALLA HONOREE AT SHOWER

The Gadsden. Times has the following account in which friends of the bride will be interested:
 Among a number of delightful cour- tesies extended Miss Maurine Hanby, q bride-elect of the Christmas season, was a miscellaneous shower" given by Mrs. George P. Walker Saturday afternoon. The decorations were pOtted plants, ferns and poinsettas, denoting the ar rival of the Christmas tide. Misses Mary Frances Lee and Beatrice Walker received the gifts for the bride and Miss Mamie Rec Burkhalter had charge of the "bride's book where the guests registered. The receiving line was com posed of Mrs. Walker, Miss Hanby, Mrs. E. K. Hanby, Mrs. R. c. Cobb of Birmingham, Miss Thelma White and Miss Louise Hutcheson. The gifts. which were numerous and beautiful were presented by Mrs. c. N. Elliott of Birmingham, who represented negro wash woman and forced her way in, to collect her pay from the bride. Her stunts in dancing and fortune telling created much amusement.

 So Raggedy Ann tiptoed out of the bushes and up to where the rope lad der lay under the tall hickory nut tree. and then Raggedy Ann picked up the rope ladder and ran with it as fast as she could go.
 Old Heezy, the Witch, knew in a mo- ment that something was wrong and out of the door she popped and, look gedy Ann was doing.
 Here! You bring my magic rope ladder back here" Heezy growled.
 q shall never bring it back until you throw Raggedy Andy down." Raggedy you have to go to the grocery to get to have the rope ladder so that you can get down!"
 And Raggedy Ann dragged the magic ladder into the bushes and tangled it amongst the stumps and logs so that it could not get unfastened by itself. Then she walked back under the hickory nut tree and sat down.
 "Just you wait, Miss Raggedy Ann v old Heezy, the Witch, howled, You'll be sorry cause I shall never throw Rag gedy Andy down! So there!"
 "Oh, yes you will, when you get very, very hungry, spect!" And as Raggedy Ann had discovered a clump of candy covered cookies growing in the bushes she gathered her apron full and sat where Heezy could watch her eat them
