ANDREW JACKSON
A. D. 1913

The nations were playing a ball
game: "Catchl" !" said France, throw
ing the ball to Spain, who muffed It,.
"Quick !" cried Napoleon, "or England
will get it-catch !" Caught" said
the first American republic, and her
prize was the valley of the Mississippi.
Soon afterward the United States
Joined Napoleon at war with Great
Britain; and the old lion had a wild
beast fight against world-at-arms. In
our search for great adventure let
us turn to the warmest corner of that
worldwide struggle, poor Spanish Flor
ida.
Here a large Indian nation, once
civilized, but now reduced to savage
ry, had taken refuge from the Ameri-
cans: and these people, the Creeks
and Seminoles, fighting for freedom
themselves, gave shelter to runaway
slaves from the United States. few
pirates are said to have lurked there,
and some Scottish gentlemen lived with
the tribes as traders. Thanks per-
haps to them, Great Britain armed
the Creeks who ravaged American
settlements to the north, and at Fort
Minns butchered four hundred men.
Northward in Tennessee the militia
were commanded by Andrew jackson,
born n frontiersman, but by trade
lawyer very valiant man of high
renown, truculent as n bantam.
Without orders he led two thousand
five hundred frontiersmen to avenge
Fort Minns by chasing the Spanish
governor Tin time of peace) out of
Pensacola, and British garrison from
Fort Barrancas, and then (after peace
was signed) expelled the British from
New Orleans, while his detachment
in Florida blew up a fort with two
hundred seventy-five refugees. Such
was the auspiclous prelude to Jack
sons war with the Creeks, who were
crushed forever at the battle of Horse
shoe Bend.

GOOD FOOD SURPRISES
DRUGS

NEW YORK city spends thirty-tive
IN million dollars each year main
tanning its hospitals. OF this amount,
ten millions, or nearly one-third, are
spent for food.
This is quite different from the old
idea of a hospital. People used to
think they went to hospital to take
medicine. They know better now. A
hospital is place for making Sick
people well, not for dosing them un-
necessarily.
A hundred years ago doctors didn't
know what caused diseases or how
they could be prevented, so the only
thing they could do was to give such
medicines as they had, in the hope OF
restoring the patient to health. The
wise doctor today doesn't give any
medicine unless he knows that it's
going to help the patient. OF course,
this means that what medicine is given
today is much more necessary ana
beneficial than the larger quantities
that used to be administered. Doctors
give fewer drugs today because they
know more than their predecessors did.
t1OSpllulS Sptuu luolt HlbhSF lol i''N
than they do for medicines, because
they know that every patient needs to
be properly nourished, while compara-
lively few need drugs.
With our better knowledge of the
chemistry of foods and the processes
of digestion we are able to combine
feeding and medication in way that
the old-time doctor never thought of.
A certain amount of iron is necessary
for health. If you must have 1t In
hurry your doctor gives you prescrip-
tion containing iron, which will rapidly
Increase the amount of iron In your
blood. But he would rather give 1t to
you in natural way through your
food The iron you get in fresh vege-
tables and fruits Is better suited for
your bodily needs than the iron you
get in pills and in bottles.
So the doctor today gives his pa
tients, either at home or in the hos
pital, many needful substances In their
food which he formerly had to give in
the form of medicines. When he does
give medicine, he gives It because it
Is necessary and he gives the smallest
amount that will do the work.
Every capable physician knows to-
day that 1t is just as important for his
patient to have the right kind of food
as the right kind of medicine.

POINTS ON
KEEPING WELL
DR.. Frederick r. Green,
Editor of Health"
70. 1924. western Newspaper union.)
WHAT is INSULIN?

DIABETES Is disease character
~ lied by the presence Of sugar in
the urine. 1t has been known for thou
sands of years.
Formerly regarded as disease OF
the kidneys, it was found, about forty
years ago, to be due to degeneration
of the pancreas, following some infec-
ton, such as influenza or typhoid fe-
yer. 1t may be caused by obesity.
In 1890, Langerhans found that only
a part of the gland was destroyed III
diabetes and that the pancreas was
really two glands in one.
One gland secretes the pancreatic
Juice, which goes into the small intes-
tine and aids digestion. The other
gland manufactures a substance which
Is taken up by the blood and which is
necessary for sugar digestion.
The parts of the gland which secrete
this second substance are called the
Islands of Langerhans.
If these islands degenerate, then the
sugar in the food, instead of being
used by the body, is discharged through
the kidneys. So that, no matter how
much the patient eats, he is unable to
get enough nourishment, because much
of his food is thrown away.
Diabetic patients have enormous ap-
petites, but the more they eat the more
poorly nourlshed they are. To make
matters worse, the changed chemistry
of the body produces an acid condition
of the blood called acidosis, which
eventually poisons the patient.
He becomes unconscious-what is
known as diabetic COMMAND usually
never awakens.
In 1921, DR.. f. G. Banting. young
Canadian physician, determined to find
this mysterious substance, the absence
of which caused diabetes.
After many experiments he sue
ceeded in making a serum containing
the secretion of the Islands of LANCER
hans, which he called insulin.
1t is now made from the pancreas
of the hog, which contains more insulin
than that of any other animal.
Before the discovery of insulin the
only thing the doctor could do for dia-
betics was to give them starch and
sugar-free diet.
Since Doctor Banting's discovery II
is possible to restore the diabetic pa
tient to practically normal condition.
The doctor weighs the patients food,
estimates the amount of sugar eaten
and the amount of sugar excreted.
Then he gives the patient enough
insulln to digest the sugar taken into
the body. This enables the body to
absorb 1t.
Insulin is not a cure for diabetes. 1t
replaces the missing substance in the
blood of the diabetic patient and so
enables him to lead a normal life.
1t is not substitute for other meth
ods of treatment. Careful diet and
ways of living are still necessary.
1t is possible that Its continued use
may restore the pancreas to normal,
ut least in mild cases, but this we do
not know. as yet

PERSIA REPLIES

MODERATION OF THE DEMANDS
IN UNITED STATES NOTE
RELIEVES PERSIA

Teheran, Persia.-The press is gen.
orally relieved mt what is regarded as
the moderation of the American de-
mands made in connection with the
killing of Vice Consul Imbrie. The
tone of the United States note is said
to be greatly appreciated.
The reply of the Persian govern
ment to the American communication
apparently meets with the approval OF
the majority here.
Washington.-The Persian note was
forwarded to Washington by Ameri-
can Minister Kornfeld, at Teheran, to
whom it had been addressed by the
Persian foreign minister. 1t apparent
ly was a full acceptance of the Ameri-
can demand that repuratron be made,
that those involved be punished, that
Persia bear the cost ef sending an
American warship to bring home the
body of the murdered vice consul, and
that hereafter complete protection be
given American citizens. 1t said:
"As your excelIency has observed,
are extremely chargined and depressed
by the lamentable incident of Friday,
July IS (the day on which Vice Consul
Imbrie was killed., and have eX-
pressed their feelings to that effect in
numerous instances and in various
ways.
"You state that your eXceIlency's s
government does not desire to APP
proach the situation in such manner
as to offend my government. The
Persian government regards this as
an evidence of the unequiVocal good
will and friendship of the American
government and requests your excel
lency to be good enough to commu-
nicate its thanks and appreciation to
the authorities of your government.
'"As | stated in the course of my
letter number 9,155, the imperial gov
ernment is making extreme efforts in
pursuing and Furnishing the persons
who caused and perpetrated the kill
| ing of Mr. Imbrie, and it will nc
hesitate to take any kind of steps in
| this connection.
considering the official status of
Mr.. Imbrie, the deceased, the Persian
government agrees with the sugges-
tions of the United States government
that the body of Mr.. Imbrie be ac-
| corded honors during its transporta-
ton. The Persian government is con-
cerned over the matter to such an
extent that it would ship the remains
of the deceased consul to America
aboard Il Persian man-of-war If Persia
possessed one. But inasmuch as it is
unable to do so it agrees to pay the
expenses which may be incurred by
the dispatch of an American man-of-
war to receive the remains.
"As to the security of American citi-
zens and particularly of American Of
ficial representatives, the Persian gov
eminent has always considered and
will continue to consider this as its
positive duty and gives assurance that
ii will by no means hesitate to fulfil
this duty 1t goes without saying tina.

Haverhill, Mass.rThe trial in Dis

to have been concerned in the early
morning clash here between klansmen
returning from an initiation ceremony
in Groveland and others resulted in a
sentence of thirty days for one man
and fines of so each for eight others
on charges of disturbing the peace.
They all appealed. Two of the four
men who received gunshot wounds in
the encounter are in the hospital.

Exercise for Tired Eyes

Lie on your back and roll the eyes
now to the left and then to the right,
look up and then down. Look straight
at the ceiling and then down. This
exercises all the muscles and rests the
eyes. Use diluted boric acid eye
wash; rest the eyes as much as pos
sible.

THE EAR-MARKs OF A LIVE TOWN

Doubtless there are many ways OF
ascertaining whether a town is dead
or alive but the one best and surest
test is by it's newspapers.
IL you see newspaper filled with
news items and live, attractive lOca
advertisements you can bet your bot
tom dollar that it is published in a
good town and that it's merchants are
awake to their opportunities. But il
the newspaper is devoid of advertis
ing, if it has not the cooperation OF
it's business houses, don't waste your
time considering that town as a place
in which to live or do business. Nine
times out of ten it's too dead tc
skin.
The newspaper reflects the com
munity just as truly as the mirror
reflects the human countenance A
prosperous looking newspaper is a
sign of a forward looking progressive
up and coming town where the mer
chants are on their toes, town
where the people do things and do
them in big way. You'll find it a
pleasure to trade with men and wo.
men of that stamp. Not only that
but you'll find it profitable because
those merchants are doing business
on a scale that enables them to give
their patrons the benefits of wise
buying. Furthermore, they are of
that alert variety who know what the
people want and are glad to offer it
to them through the columns of their
newspapers.
A live, throbbing newspaper is the
best advertisement town can have.
1t can only be a growing, prosperous
newspaper through this cooperation.
The newspaper is fighting for the
best things in the community twenty
four hours out of the day telling the
world of the hopes and aspirations
of it's citizens. The editor goes the
limit to say fine things about his
city and his friends and neighbors.
Yes, the world judges a town by
it's newspapers. If you doubt it, make
a personal investigation and you'll
find that statement is entirely the
truth.-StOrm Lake Pilot-Tribune.
