IN NEW YORK

New York, Nov. 29.-As, year up
on year, prohibition goes merrill,
on. the styles in speakeasies arc
constantly changing.
This winter the home-like buffet.
apartment speakeasy is in great
vogue. There are places where one
can drop in and sit about like q
member Of the family while order
ing individual drinks or bottles.
In Larger and more elaborate
apartments the bibulous New York
ers arriy by invitation. The invita-
tions tell you that the So-and-Sos
will be "home every afternoon from
2:3O to $780," They are 1T home.
-. and how! Fashionably dressed
women Of the cocktail set" come
in the early afternoon and few men
drift in until shortly before the din
ner hour. ..
I have on my desk . letter that
came in the mornings mail telling
me that one Of the polite boot
leggers" is now prepared to have a
squad of telephone girls to answer
all calls for refreshments at all
hours Of the night, while 4 "fleet Of
winged mercuries" will bring the
desired substance to your very
door.
Such concerns are so organized
that service departments operate to
get liquor with the greatest dis
patch to private parties"

Editorial Comment

Duluth Herald)


Americans of German birth and ancestry
will celebrate during the week Of November q
the hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the
landing of General Baron Friedrich William
Won Steuben.
That event is well worth celebrating, fol
this nation in it's struggle for freedom owes
more to the genius of this German soldier thar
many of its people realize.
Steuben. who came to this country because
Benjamin Franklin asked him to, landed al
Portsmouth, New Hampshire, December
1777. He went to Valley Forge terrible
place that winter. Later congress made him
q major general in the Continental army.
Washington appointed him inspector general
with the specific task of putting order into
the army. which up to then had been almost
without discipline, as an army without firm
government back of it is likely to be- The
value of his services in this vitality important
field was generally recognized at the time, and
is firmly fixed fact in American history. In
deed, it is pretty sure that if Steuben had come
earlier, the distressing conditions Of that win
ter at Valley Forge would have been prevented
It is right to observe this occasion, and
every American, of whatever ancestry, should
be proud to join in the celebration, not only to
recognize the value of the services of this Ger
man volunteer, but to emphasize the friendly
relations that ought to exist, and that will ex,
list, between this great people and the great
people across the water that gave birth to this
invaluable friend to the STRUGGLING colonies

Governor Sorlie's auditors, Thomas Poole
and William NJ. Schantz, supported also by
Hendrickson & Wilson, public accountants Of
st. Paul, have disproved the contentious of the
Fact Finding committee and the various Lund
reports in all of the material points. In an
other column of this paper. conditions sur.
rounding the wheat purchases for the State
Mill by the Midland Grain company of Mime
apols, are set forth as Shown in the official
report filed recently with the chief executive
of this state.
The examination disproves an arbitrary con-
clusion by Mr.. Lund that the Midland Grain
company made a middlemenS profit of $751;
326.84 on 318 cars of wheat delivered to the
Grand Forks MILL An analysis of the Midland
company's books discloses that an average Of
less than one and one-half cents bushel profit
was made on all grain sold to the state mill by
this company
Access to all books and records was given
to the accountants commissioned by Governor
SOrlie and the state bank examiners office.
The report as delivered is signed by two certi-
fled accountants and the state law provides a
penalty for Justification of such reports, a
safeguard which is wholly absent in the vari-
Gus reports Of Mr.. Lund. who, has not to date
been able to secure a certificate from the state
board Of accountancy.
It is not necessary to repeat the high lights
of the report just filed, as they are set forth
in the Associated Press news story released
this evening to all state papers.
How easy it would have been for the Fact
Finding committee to have summoned officials
of the Midland Grain company and checked
back figures and contentious before releasing
Same to the press of the state in an effort
to achieve political capital at the expense of
the State Mill and the Midland Grain company
Transactions with the I. S. Joseph company
as regards feed sales will be discussed in an
other article which is to follow the one on
wheat purchases.
The unfairness of the enemies attack upon
the Sorlie administration and their efforts to
wreck what they cannot control should be evil
dent to all fair-minded citizens of the state
after study Of this report.
Governor Sorlie has called special session
Of the legislature. Doubtless in his message
he will set forth in complete detail the scope
of its deliberations. All cards should be placed
on the table and thorough discussion as to
the future of every state industry should be
had If the state is to operate them, they
cannot continue to be the football of politics.
If the voters and taxpayers of the state have
had enough Of them it is not a very hard task
for them to express their desires through the
members of the legislature. Whether the state

ASTHMA CURES

Considering that asthma is q
symptom and not q disease, it is,
of course, very foolish to continue to
treat such symptoms with reme-
dies without at least attempting to
remove the probable cause.
AS I explained in yesterdays arti-
Gle, there are only three principal
causes Of true asthma or bronchial
asthma. These are excessive Gas
pressure against the diaphragm,
lack Of mobility to the diaphragm,
and excessive formations of mucus
in the. bronchial tubes. The cure
then must come from removing
these causes, and fully one hundred
per cent Of all cases can be cured
through properly regulated diet and
exercise.
It is rtt. nonsense to consider
that the pollen Of flowers or the
smell Of horse hair or rabbit fur
can In any way be q real cause of
asthma. It is true, there. may be
many ex- Ling or irritating causes
Of bronchial asthma, especially that
caused by excessive mucous, but the
fact remains that the mucous MEM
brapes of the throat and lungs can
not be affected by the irritation Of
goldenrod it the sensitive one will
follow some very simple rules re-
garding exercise and diet. One can
thus make himself immune to any
possibility of q bronchial wheeze
from the effect Of irritating micro
organisms.
The suffering asthmatic is deluded
and deceived many times by prom.
ises of cures through the injection
Of serums and so-called protective
agents made from various proteins,
the pollen Of flowers, and animal
hair and excretions. Out Of thou
sands Of estimates examined, I
have yet to find single case where
any one has been benefited by such
treatment. Generally, the contrary
is true, and the patient is made
worse by the addition to his blood
Of some foreign substance not har.
monious with the body's natural
metabolism.
There is, perhaps. some excuse
for the continued use Of opiates in
the form Of smoking powders, or
for the patient using adrenalin for
relief. The asthmatic IL justified
in relieving his suffering in any
way possible until he has learned
how to remove the true cause Of
his trouble. However, when he is
seriously attempting to cure his dis
order by hygienic measures, all
remedies taken to relieve symptoms
seem to interfere with the produc-
ton Of permanent cure.
The asthmatic must entirely elm
mate the opiates, and give up adj
renalin, at the start Of . treatment
with dieting and exercising. He
often has to spend several days in
hard fight with symptoms, and
there is considerable suffering from

Still holding his sister in the

I'm glad to know you. It was
mighty nice Of you to take care of
my little sister for me-"
Faith almost laughed aloud.
The words were SO commonplace.
She hardly knew what she had ex-
pected from this magnificent giant
who had journeyed from Minnesota

odd that ordinary words could come
from mouth like that. Her eyes
flicked an amused glance at Cher.

And her face was SO pale, so rigid,
that Faith was suddenly awed and
afraid.

This special warning is issued to
those of my readers who wish to
cure themselves Of asthma, but who
might make the mistake Of trying
to continue along the lines Of their
old treatment for relief, and at the
same time, use my newer ideas re-
garding q cure Of asthma through
diet and exercise.
Tomorrow's Article will contain
instructions on how to begin the
cure of asthma.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: w. r. S. writes: II
am little near-sighted and look
very funny in glasses. Could my
eyes be cured any other way besides
wearing glasses
Answer: Near-sightcdness can be
helped to some degree by improving
the general health, and by taking the
eye exercises. These exercises will
strengthen the muscles of the eyes
sometimes enough so that you can
go without glasses, even though
your eye defect is not entirely cor
rected. J, 1t is advisable to wear
glasses at least when reading as
long IS the near-sightedness con-
tinues.
Question: p. F. E. writes: II re-
ceive a great deal of help through
your daily writings. and am won
dering if you would advise eating
dried figs, prunes, and fruit Of that
kind without being stewed."
Answer: The dried fruits you
mention can be used without cook
ing and are even more wholesome
when used in this manner. Some
enjoy the flavor Of the fruits when
they are soaked overnight in
small amount of water, and then
eaten without being cooked.
Question: Mrs. Caroline E.
writes: Every time I turn my head
to the left my neck snaps. What
causes it? Also, my arms at the
elbows and legs at the knees be-
come numb and ache if I don't keep
them perfectly straight when 1
sleep. Is it improper circulation,
or my nerves."
Answer: The neck-snapping is
caused from. some faulty position Of
the vertebrate or ligaments in your
neck. This can probably be COR
rected by proper treatments. The
1umbness of your elbows and knees
may be caused by a mild form Of
rheumatism or by poor circulation
due to insufficient exercise.

Old Masters

She sat and wept beside His feet;
the weight
OF sin oppressed her heart; for all
the blame,
And the poor malice Of the worldly
To her was past, extinct, and out
Only the sin remainsd-the leprous
state;
She would be melted by the heat of
love,
By fires far fiercer than are blown
to prove
And purge the silver ore adulterate.
She sat and wept, and with her un-
tressed hair
Still wiped the feet she was 30

And He wiped off the soiling Of

From her sweet soul, because she
