It is probable that over two bill
lion, two hundred thousand pounds
of fish are used in North America
each year. Even if the amount
used were doubled or trebled it is
unlikely that the avaible supply Of
fish would be exhausted for many
years. There are now many gov
eminent bureaus for the purpose Of
! maintaining fish hatcheries to re-
stock the edible fish in the rivers
| and lakes. This is an admirable
measure Of precaution since fish
form a very valuable part Of our
dietary.
The composition of fish very
closely resembles that Of lean meat.
The average fish is four-fifths
water, contains about the same
amount of protein as lean meat and,
with the exception of salmon. her
ring and mackerel fiat fish. about
the same amount of fat. The pro-
tein Of fish is particularly valuable
because it is free from any mixture
with starch.
Fish is rich in potassium, phos-
phorus and sulphur, but is deficient
in sodium, iron and silicon. For this
reason a fish meal should always
be accompanied by the leafy vege-
table foods that are rich in the latter
elements.
There is popular superstition
that fish is . brain stimulant be-
cause Of the amount Of phosphorus
it contains, but this IL erroneous
since there is no more phosphorus in
fish than there is in lean meat.
When buying fish one should
avoid using those that do not have
. bright appearance of the eyes and
skin. The flesh should be so firm
that the pressure of the finger will
leave no indentation.
Fresh fish is easier to digest than
that which has been picked, smoked,
dried or canned in oil. The fish with
the finest texture is most easily d.
gested.
The ordinary refrigerator is not
cold enough to keep fish for any
great length Of time, and it is best
to pack the fish ss soon as possible
in Clipped ice and keep it there
until it is ready to be cooked. Com
mercial shipments of fish are usually
completely frozen and stored at .
temperature of from five to 10 de-
grees F.
Fish is an inexpensive protein
food that could be used many times
per week. 1t is likely that if the
public overcame the one-day-s-week
idea about fish the price would be
still further reduced, since there is
considerable spoilage with only Z
one day market.
1t is best not to use any starches
with fish meal, but as many cooked
and raw non-starchy vegetables may
be used as desired. No milk should
be used with the fish meal, as this

Washington, Oct. "a member
of the cabinet or one of the depart
mental assistant secretaries can stop
work to dash about the country de-
livering rabidly partisan campaign
speeches. He can peddle large doses
OF bunk to the people who pay his
salary and speak with little regard
for the truth. as many politicians
do. And when he returns to his
desk in Washington he is patted on
the back.
But if some lowly government
clerk or inoffensive stenographer
wears a Hoover button or q Smith
button or drives with partisan
automobile tag, that is quite another
matter. The perpetrator Of such q
misdemeanor is technically subject
to discharge for violating the rules
Of the Civil Service Commission.
A number Of classified civil serv.
ice employees already have been
ordered to remove such tags and
buttons and $4,000 printed warnings
have been broadcast through govern
ment offices over the country. There
are about 425.OOO civil service en-
ployes among the governments $780,
600 public servants.
Naturally, the apparent discrim-
nation against the classified en-
ploye as distinguished from the Of
ficials not under classified civil serv-
ice has often aroused criticism. But
there are important compensations
for the former, as has been pointed
out by Chairman William G. Dem
ing Of the Civil Service Commission.
As long As they function efficient
~, the 425,000 classified employees
are technically sure of their jobs.
The hight- executives, however,
must be prepared to give up their
position with bipartisan change Of
administration. The commission has
no control over them and they are
thus permitted to go out and work
to save their jobs in every political
campaign.
The commissions rules governing
political activities are designed to
keep politics out of the classified
service. II political activities were
permitted, the commission holds, Of
flee executives would be able, in
spite Of the law, to compel minor
employees to participate in politics

A DIFFERENT COOLIDGE

The American people have learned to look upon
President Coolidge Unconditional man, not to say

"Here my dead lie pillowed upon the everlasting

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Question: K. H. asks: will
you tell me the cause Of nervous
ness after doing various exercises
before retiring at night? This
nervousness lasts only about ten
minutes after / do these exercises.
Is it some nervous troubled"
Answer: 1t is best to take your
exercises early in the evening. ut
least an hour before going to bed. or
better yet, do them before dinner.
The exercises if taken just before
going to bed will stimulate you 80
much that you will probably stay
awake for an hour or 50. They do
not make you really nervous, but
simply increase your strength and
endurance to such an extent that
you feel 50 much stronger and it is
difficult to relax.
Question: D. G. writes: Il would
like to know how a person is to
know what to eat if he is not sure.
Of what his trouble Is. Is even doc
tors do not agree on what the
trouble is"
Answer: You will be perfectly
safe in following the diet az recon-
mended in my weekly menus which
are published in this paper each Fri
day. Have as many diagnoses made
as necessary until you find some
physician who can properly analyze
your case.
Question: A Reader asks: "Would
continued moderate use of milk of
magnesia latter meals) augment the
hardening of the arteries :"
Answer: Hardening Of the
arteries is produced by the deposit Of
minerals in the arterial walls. The
minerals in milk of magnesia can
never reach the arteries, as they are
inert substances and pass through
the alimentary canal without being
assimilated.
