THE man living on the earth is
i exposed constantly to a certain
pressure of air. This pressure va
ries according to the altitude or
height at which he lives, commonly
estimated in relation to the pres
sure at sea level.
At sea level the weight of air
above the earth represents a pres
sure equivalent to that of a column
of mercury 760 millimeters high or
about fifteen pounds to the square
inch. At height similar to that
of Mt. Everest, some $4,000 feet, the
pressure is one-half as much.
When a man goes down into the
sea as in diving and in engineering
work carried out under water in
caissons and in tunnels, he is ex-
posed to much higher pressure.
In very deep sea diving men get
presSures almost ten times as great
as at sea level. In fact, the pres

Compulsory Auto Insurance

Massachusetts has done the rest of the country
good turn if she has proved by the breakdown of her
compulsory automobile liability insurance law that the
thing simply does not work.
Obviously insurance companies are not going to
continue in business where the outgo is more than the
income.
Neither has the element of safety been increased
BY such law if collisions and fatalities have mounted
In numbers since the passage of that law as is
claimed.
Some method of establishing financial response

CONSTIPATIONIS
PLAGUE OF RACE
Eat Fruits and Vegetables -
Properly Favored

The papers are full Of statements
and theories about constipation
one of the plaques Of civilized
people. What are the facts? A
famous food biologist was asked to
state the case and he summed it up
in these few words: "At least 500
of constipation is due to a lack Of
roughage in the diet. Eat bran,
cereals, and fruits and vegetables
both raw and cooked"
He went on to emphasize how
much more pleasant it is to eat
these healthful foods provided their
delightful tastes and flavors are
developed by the use OF sugar. He
spoke of how hard it is to get chill
dren to eat cereals, so beneficial in
their diet, unless they are properly
sweetened. He asked us to remem-
Der how many healthful fruits
would be unpleasant to the taste
without softening the fruit acids
and developing their remarkable
favors with sugar.
We should put it down as a safe
rule of health that all human beings
living in the civilized world today
need plenty of fruit and vegetable
fiber in their daily diet. Sugar, by
making nearly all such diets pleas
ant to taste and easy to eat, is the
one dependable aid to the eating of
roughage.
There is no substitute for sugar
In the normal diet. Sugar is Ma
lures ideal flavor for healthful
foods. Eat the things you need and
enjoy them. The Sugar Institute

What Doctors Think
of the
Laxative Habit

In all history, no Indian was ever
known to have constipation. Nor
need YOU. He cheWed the bark of
a tree called cascara. Today, we
have the candy Cascaret.
Cascarizing the bowels never
forms a laxative habit. If already
formed. an occasional Cascaret will
usually break the habit. For cas-
cara strengthens the muscular walls
Of the bowels, and their need of
any aid at all grows constantly less.
What other cathartic has this char,
acteristic? The writer knows of
none.
An evacuation brought gently
about by cascara will, nine times in
ten, be followed by full functioning
of the bowels on the morrow-and
for days after. For there is no RE-
ACTION as with Sickening salts, or
any Of the man-made purgatives
that go through ones system like a
bullet.
Physicians tell us cascara is the
ideal laxative the tongue tells
