Girls Put Color of
Food Before Taste

"Girls Judge food mostly by their
eyes. They talk about the color rather
than the taste. A red cherry or a
green leaf, a fancy shape or dab Of
whipped cream casts the die"
This Is the belief of Miss Mary
Swartz Rose, a professor of nutrition
at Columbia university, writing In Hy-
geia on 1.-THE High Cost Of Growing"
Although 1t costs more to prepare
and serve food In these fancy guises
Miss Rose tells parents that 1t pays
to use the girls love Of beauty to sup
plement her weaker urge to eat. A
girl does not need as many calories Of
food as her brother, but the same
amount Of money can be spent on her
with good conscience.
Keep her diet literally supplied
with fruit and vegetables. Give her an
egg and a quart of milk a day. Insist
on her eating at regular tines and try
to arrange for her a wholesome life
that will give her a good appetite. She
Is learning at school that the physical
beauty. which Is one of her greatest
concerns, comes through health and
she has seen how quickly animals show
the effects of unsuitable food In stringy
hair and blotched skin"

Immortal Epic

The Niebelungen-Lied is a famous
German epic poem of unknown author
ship consisting of ancient ballads,
termed sagas. In its present form It
dates from the middle of the Twelfth
century. 1t Is divided into two parts,
the first ending with the death Of Seig-
fried and the second with the death
Of ,Kriemhild, his widow. Interest In
the Niebelungen-Lied declined after
the Reformation, but revived at the
close of the Eighteenth century; 1t
was not, however, until the early part
Of the Nineteenth century that scholars
realized the great literary treasures
contained in this poem. Richard Wag-
ner founded his musical drama en-.
titled "The Ring Of the Nibelungen"
on this epic.

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best
Or. KiImer'S Swamp Root

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that 80 many products that are ex-
tensively advertised all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, az like
an endless chain system the remedy Ii
recommended by those who have been
benefited to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case It shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has 80 large .
SALE" ...
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder ailments, corrects urinary
troubles and 'neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.

Determined on Ruhr Occupation.

Paris-Premier Herriot is deter.
mined that the Ruhr must continue to
be occupied and that funds to cover
the expense Of the occupation must bc
provided. even though he should be de-
feated by his insistency on this point.
He made his stand clear In the Cham
Der Of Deputies, declaring that to
leave the Ruhr would be tantamount
to Abandonment Of the rights Of
France, and when he asked for a vote
OF confidence on the question, 1t was
given 406 to rs. The Communists
alone voted in the negative.

New York-By a vote Of 353 to TAI
the democratic national convention
rejected League of Nations plank
embodying the deathbed views OF
Woodrow Wilson. This plank was
submitted as a minority report by
Newton D. Baker, former secretary OF
war. The delegates, two to one, sup
ported the plank on the league as
framed by a majority Of the platform
committee-it has a national referen'
dunn attachment.
The plank that was adopted had
been denounced by Mr.. Baker as fan
tastic, illegal, unconstitutional and an
unavoidable vagary-providing a sort
of postal card" referendum.
WIIsonian Idea Collapse Climax.
The collapse of the Wilsonian idea
at convention where every mention
of his name has been received fer
emily and almost with an air Of wor
ship, came at the close of two hours
Of argument filed with dramatic eli
MAKES.
Mr.. Baker In his peroration sum
moned the spirit OF Woodrow Wilson
to the convention hall. With choking
voice, he said his departed chieftain
stood beside him on the platform and
that he, Baker, was merely a mouth
piece through whom Woodrow Wilson
himself was admonishing the democ
racy to stand by the League Of Ma
lions.
Saturated with emotion, Mr.. Baker
said Woodrow Wilson won the war
won the world. won the peace and
died for what he had won, and that
the democratic party although wor'
Shipping its departed great, is afraid to
stand by Wilson's great ideals.
In one dramatic fragment he spoke
Of woodrow Wilson at the Great
White Throne in honor, a minute
later. as an imaginary republican edi.
tor. Baker spoke Of the headline he
would scream across the front page
were the convention to adopt the ma
jority referendum league plank--"dem.
ocratic Convention Repudiates Wood
row Wilson"
That was the contrast he played up
on-Woodrow Wilson honored In
heaven for his deeds and ideals, but
dishonored in his own party.
Platform Adopted.
After declining by the hair breath
margin the Ku Klux Khan by name,
the democratic national convention
adopted the party platform amid
scenes Of indescribable confusion.
The vote on the Khan issue was
al 500 In favor of the plank de-
nouncing the hooded order by name,
as demanded by the antiKlan demo
Gratis, and 542 $40 in favor Of the
plank condemning religious and racial
intolerance but not mentioning the
Khan. The narrow victory goes to the
plank reported by the majority of the
resolutions committee and defended
by William Jennings Bryan. u
After the acceptance of the religious
liberty plank-without naming the
Klan-the platform was adopted by a
viva voce vote and the convention ad.
journed until $3.50 q. m. Monday.

MACMILLAN RADIO
HEARD IN AUSTRALIA
Breaks All Records for 200 Meter
Wave Length Transmission
From Arctic.

Coincident with the return Of the
Macmillan Arctic exploration expo.
dition to this country comes the
startling news from Australia that
MacNillan's radio equipment has
broken all records for 200-meter-
wave long distance transmission.
Amateurs with low-poWer transmit
ters have worked across the Atlantic
and have covered great distances in
experimental work. but 1t has re-
manned for the little Macmillan trans
mitter to out-distance the best of
these.
Because OF the extremely small
space available on the Macmillan
ship, the Bowdoin. only an extremely
low-power transmitter of but 100
watt capacity could be installed. In
it's initial test the set gave promise
OF remarkable performance and
through the long year. during which
Macmillan was frozen in within IL
degrees OF the North Pole, communi-
cation was maintained with stations
all over the United States and Cam
ada and this was deemed excellent
performance.
However, little did MacMillan's op-
orator, Donald Mix. realize how far
his signals were carrying, when on
May 10. at 4:30 pm. Ope rator W. Cot
trell Of Cooge, Australia. heard WNP.
MacMillan's call letters. distinctly
communicating with 6XAD, the ex-
perimental station of Maj. Lawrence
Mott, located at Avalon, on the Cata-
lima Islands. There is no question as
to the authenticity of the record, as
the Australian amateur heard the sig
nails sufficiently we'll to enable him
to identify the peculiar 500-cycle self
rectified note. characteristic OF the
peculiar and unusual type OF trans
mittor with which the Macmillan eI-
pedition was equipped.
