THE IMPORTANT FREICHTER

The ocean liner. Kipling remarked, is lady, and
very dressy, snowy at that. The Levathans and
Maestcs are the boats that get in the and make
patriotic Americans and Brtishers point with pride.
But it is the lowy frcghter that is really important
after all. Edward P. Warner, assistant secretary of
the navy, points out in the current Review of Reviews
that Americas hope of getting merchant marine Of
the first rank lies not in developing big transatlantic
liners but in launching host of prosaic cargo-car-
riers that can take goods to South America and
Asia.
The rusty-looking freighter may not be very in
spring to look at but it is highly important in the
business woodland that is what counts.

TWO CREWS ON THE Sd

The submarine S4, which rested the bottom of the
sea off Provincetown Mass, for three months, a
temporary tomb for her entire crew. has been repaired
and is afoat, ready to go back into service
One rather imagines that the members of the crew
will have to be men Of iron nerves. The submarine is,
of course, as safe as any other yet with too
much imagination might easily get the creeps serving
aboard it. Imagine curling up in bunk and meditating
that that very bed stayed under water for three months
with lifeless sailor stretched out on it!
The Sd must carry crew Of ghosts in addition to
her regular compliment Let's hope that the sailors will
be able to ignore them.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS


Question: H. o. Y. writes:
every time / turn my head to the
left my neck snaps. What causes
it? Also, my arms at the elbows,
and my legs at the knees become
numbsand ache if don't keep them
perfectly straight when I sleep. Is
it improper circulation, or my
nerves? ?"
Answer: The neck-snapping is
caused from some faulty position of
the vertebrae or ligaments in your
neck. This can probably be correct
ed by osteopathic or chiropractic
treatments. The numbness Of your
elbows and knees may be caused by
a mild form of rheumatism or by
poor circulation due to insufficient
exercise.
Question: B. J. asks: evil YOU
please tell me how to reduce the
ankles?"
Answer: There is only ono
method / know Of to reduce the
ankles, and that is by exercise.
Many twisting and bending exer-
cises may be used, but walking is
the best one of all, and will reduce
the ankles as much as they can be
reduced.
Question: Mrs. L. J. writes:
"Have had an itch On one foot UNI
derneath and between the toes for
about one and q half years. Can you
suggest cure for it? And what
causes a pain in the left chest when
taking a deep breath? This does
not happen at the time - usually
only when I laugh a lot"
Answer: You may be able to cure
the itch underneath your toes BY
bathing your feet frequently in
warm water to which has been added
handful of Epson salts. The feet
should be bathed at least twice
daily, carefully dried afterwards,
and boric acid powder sprinkled in
your stockings and between your
toes. The pain in your chest could
be caused by a misplaced rib, which
is rather common, or from adhe-
sions to the diaphragm. An osteo.
pathic examination would determine
the cause.

WAR BREAKS OUT IN
REFORM OPPOSITION
Trouble Attributed to Queens
Desire to Abolish Women
SecIuSion

New Delhi, India, Dec. 17.-(R)-
Reports from the frontier state that
King Amanullah Of Afghanistan and
Queen Souriya have taken refuge In
a fort, the army having turned
against them.
While reports of disturbances in
the remOter sections of Afghanistau
have been reported recently, today's
advices were the first indicating that
the disaffection had spread to Kabul
the capital, city of about 100000
population.
The trouble at Kabul was attribut-
ed to the kings drastic westernization
reforms and to Queen Souriya's de-
sire to abolish Purdah, or the seclu-
sion Of women.
No letters have been exchanged be-
tween Kabul and India for the past
month, but the telegraph lines are
still working.
The situation in Afghanistan has
changed for the worse in the last two
days and fighting between the gov
ernment and the rebels was reported
today both frcm Kabul, and Jalala-
bad, near the Indian border.
The rebels had some success in the
vicinity Of Kabul, capturing two small
forts and munitions.
At Jalalabad, the ShrinWari and
Khuguan tribes ceased negotiations
with the government and took the
field. They captured the Afghan
outpost Of Kaja and also inflicted
casualties on the regulars and irregu-
lars.

Bismarck, Mandan and Daw-

Called by Steele

Steele. N. D., Dec. 17.-(F-Every
male resident of Steele turned out
today to save the town from destruc-
ton by fire.
Valiant wor,;, in a temperature
which hovered around zero, enabled
them to confine the blaze to one
building. The loss Is estimated at
more than $4,000.
The flames were famed by q stiff
breeze from the north which made 1t
necessary to station men on the roofs
of other buildings in the town to keep
the entire business section from be-
ing destroyed.
According to an investigation by p.
G. McElroy. of the Kidder County
Farmer Press. the fire started shortly
before $3.50 o'clock this morning in
: the Gallipo restaurant, caused by q
coffee urn boiling over.
The restaurant was destroyed as
was the Steele Mercantile company's
general store and Art Yanken's drug
store, located in the same building.
The structure was IS by ITO feet
in dimension and was Of frame
Sheathed with tin.
Failure of chemical engine to
work properly kept the fire depart
ment from getting the blaze under
control shortly after it started The
engine arrived on the scene in time
to keep the blaze from spreading
from the restaurant but failed to
work. BY the time the other chem
ical engine arrived it was too late to
save the building The Steele fire
department has two Of these engines.
It was impossible to get detailed
estimate of the loss. It is known,
:. however. that all but the restaurant
was protected by insurance.
More than 100 men were on the
bucket lines which prevented spread
of the flames.
The Dawson fire department re-
sponded to an appeal for help and
word was sent to the Mandan fire
department. The latter. however.
haG not arrived at 10 o'clock this
morning. at which time the ruins
were still smoldering.
The Bismarck fire department was
also summoned, but telephone call
later informed the local department
that the fire was under control.
