MAKING DIET CHANGES WITH
THE TIMES

A good habit il just Is hard e
form - . bad one, and likewise
just as difficult to change q . bad
| practice.
The willingness to experiment,
with new ideas is the crownine
glory Of human achievement!
There was . time when the one
who attempted . change from estab.
lished custom was looked upon Is q
hereto, and was Stunned BY other
members Of the tribe.
The housewife 10 often content b
feed the family upon the same foods
day after day, only because It II
the easiest way. It takes effort to
think up new ways Of hy9ienic cook
ing, and the tired cook, enervated
by bad eating habits herself, is sat
isfied to use the frying pan rather
than 60 to the trouble Of cooking Z
roast, or learning how to use the
steam pressure cooker.
Many housekeepers still use the
old. fashioned broom. and avoid the
vacuum cleaner Is. IL il were an in
vention Of the devil. Men used ia
be too lazy to shave off their boards,
making the feeble excuse that it was
bad for the throat to be clean
shaven. Some still claim that II
is wrong to shave because God in
tended the flowing beard for mans
protection and "decoration!"
This clinging to habits of the past
is mostly because Of mental inertia
and the fact that it takes q certain
amount Of pahysical and mental
effort to change to new habits, even
when they appear to be good ones!
The plea is made by some that
what was good for their grandpar-
ents 10 good for them. One might
Is well refuse to use automobiles
and elevators for the same reason!
We are living in . scientific age,
and the fruits Of modern science can
not be enjoyed unless we are will
ing to learn new ways Of living
which fit the new age Of advance
ment and progress!
The pancakes Of our Grandfathers
did not cause the same amount Of
trouble that they do today, with our
nervous systems % highly sehsi-
TIED to modern living conditions.

Editorial Comment
New Roads While You Wait
Man, Xoa.k Earonin Dorkl

Sensational doings in the air haven't dis.
pensed with the need for wel-built highways
on terra firma. How We have advanced in the
last few years in the speed at which these high
ways can be built is shown by the statement
that in 1910 an entire month was frequently
required for building single mile of concrete
highway, while today trained builders, armed
with mammoth paving mixers that turn out
a cubic yard of fresh concrete every minute OF
so, can lay a concrete ribbon 1900 feet long
in eight or ten hours In less than four days,
that is, he can accomplish what few years
ago it took month to achieve. It is reassur-
ing to know that no matter how rapidly auto
mobiles are made there are machines which
can manufacture good roads fast enough to
keep up with them.

WASHINGTON ~
LETTER MM

I Interpretation OF the positive &C.
required to prove ownership Of thu
sub surface and to abandon the plar
to limit ownership rights to 81
| years, which we claimed vas re
troactive and confiscatory.
The new regulations were baset
on . supreme court decision Of I
few months ago. They represented
. defeat for the policy Of former
Ambassador Sheffield, who in /
speech to the American colony il
Mexico City called for . concrete
backbone" in our dealings will
Mexico. Gales had previously in.
sisted in his notes to Secretary
Kellogg that the dispute be allowed
to simmer until specific cases under
the law had actually been decided BY
the Mexican courts.
It was significant that tho Mexi-
can supreme court withheld its de-
cision until Sheffield had left and
Morrow had arrived, bringing in IN
era of good feeling with the blessing
Of President Coolidge.
Now the oil companies will have
to show Mexico when and how they
obtained their titles. That is likely
to be the next bone Of trouble be-
tween Mexico and the oil companies,
but probably not between Mexico
and the United States.
According to statements inserted
in the Congressional ..ecord and
elsewhere published, about $40, OOO,-
900 worth Of oil resources-said to
be about on-third the value Of Amer
lean oil holdings in Mexico-was
turned over by the E. L. Doheny oil
interests to the Standard Oil inter-
ests and is being held in escrow
pending final decision Of validity
Of the Doheny titles.
It has been reported that only
81. 100000 of the agreed price of
$4,000. 900 was paid 10 Doheny
by the Standard. The Doheny titles
must now be registered with the
Mexican government.
1.-THE nub Of the whole Mexican
question:" said Senator Frazier Of
North Dakota last year, ''lies in the
fact that certain American corpor-
atoms and individuals claim prop
erty in Mexico on titles Of very
dubious validity"

The Harbinger of Peace

The Harblnger OF Peace
The fountain head of the American Legion
in the United States visits Bismarck Monday.
He comes winging his way out of the east, a
harbinger Of peace. He flys on mission that
has, as it's intent, the creation of interest in
the universal draft act now pending in Con.
gress.
Edward E. Spafford of New York, national
commander of the American Legion, has been
delegated by his buddies to preach the gospel
Of the universal draft-a peace plan and a
preparedness measure.
What is the American Legion's peace plan ?
In the words of Bernard M. Baruch, chair

easy-goine, old-fashioned habits Of
eating which do not fit in with the
changes that have been going on in
this new age Of keen competition
where the plums Of success can only
be plucked by those who are not too
lazy to reconstruct their habits Of

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: Marie asks: "What is
the cause Of peritonitis, and how
long can . patient have same before
death takes place?"
Answer: Peritonitis simply means
inflammation Of the peritoneum
which is the membrane lining the
inside Of your abdomen. Disease
or inflammation in any Of the ab-
dominal organs can spread to the
peritoneum. Peritonitis is . serious
condition, but not necessarily fatal.
Most deaths from peritonitis take
place after surgical operations.
Question: Mrs. B. X. asks: 'Is
nut margarin . good butter substi-
tute?"
Answer: I do not know Of anw
nut butter which 10 . perfect butter
substitute. The nourishing part Of
butter is practically 100 per cent fat,
where the nut buffers are usually
from 40 to so per cent fat. Oleo-
margarin Is closer to q butter SUBJ
stitute. but any of these so-called
butter substitutes are healthful foods
If used in the proper manner.
Question: w. N. H. asks: "Will
you kindly tell me if . radium pad
will help cure one Of stomach trouble,
such as belching gas, and ulcers?"
Answer: Those who specialize in
the treatment Of disease by the use
Of radium do not use it in the treat
ment OF ulcers or to get rid Of flat
u!ence. Il is used principally to burn
OF warts or moles, and in the treat
ment Of various types Of cancer. It
is used for its destructive power.
The theory is that it destroys de-
generating tissue more quickly than
normal tissue. It is . very danger
Gus element to use and should only
be used by . skilled physician who

scientist. whose car was used WedneS-
day night In an attempt to kidnap E.
Percival Wilson, banker. disclosed that
the blow struck Kephart on the head
by thugs, who attacked him shortly be-
fore Wilson was held up. was easily
sufficient to render him unconscious
for the five or six hours he laid IN the
Soldiers Home grounds.
DR.. Adams said late last night that
Kephart has bruise behind his right
car, and that the place Is stil swollen.
The skin Is scratched In several places
indicating. DR.. Adams declared. that
the scientist was struck with rough
blunt instrument. or perhaps by a
sand bag covered with rough cloth.
Dr. Adams asserted that while 1t is
possible that an aneSthetic was ad-
miniStered to the man, the blow alone
could have been solely responsible for
his condition
No signs could be found which would
indicate q kick in the stomach, DIR,
Adams declared. such as Kephart told
police he received. The absence of
marks on Kephart's body does not show.
however, that he was not kicked, DR..
Adams explained. Kephart's supposed
connection with the kidnapping of Wilson
was termed absurd by the doctor.
DR.. Adams said last night that he had
not known Kephart before yesterday
and that he examined him at the re-
quest of near friend who is also an
intimate OF the injured man.

mitted last night that they were no

SPECULATIVE LOAN
CURB IS FAVORED
No9beck, Reporting on La
Toilette Request, Warns of
Dangerous Situation"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
Submitting report today on the La
Toilette resolution approved by the Sen
ate banking committee asking the Fed
cral Reserve Board to admonish mem
ber banks to restrict the amount of
brokers' loans, Chairman Norbeck of
the committee warned Wall Street that
the situation is and continues to grow
more dangerous"
In his report Senator Norbeck called
attention to the fact that the brokers
loans have increased from $3,733 685,-
600 in January to $4.S61. .10S.0 900 on May
Q, new high record. He said 1t was
obvious that the loans from New York
member banks of the Federal reserve
system were for speculative purposes
Country Looks to Board"
Congress and the country" the re-
port said. ARE looking to the Federal
Reserve Board for leadership in matters
of banking and financing, in order that
we may not have the unnecessary rep
etltion OF disasters that have befallen
us in the past.
whatever goes up must come down,
and tho history of the boons Is that
the higher thsy go the more suddenly
they break. 1t IS no defense of the
aoiEGSt ID say IlldI lIlS TlSkS are WlIc-
spread That Is only another way of
laying that the losses will not fall so
heavily on the centers. but will b.
borne by the whole country. This is
not surprising The speculative buyers
are not the experienced class; they are
the lambs.
Resolution Is Modified.
THE higher the market goes the
more widespread the condition. We
can find small consolation in the fact
that the losses will be borne by those
least able to bear 1t. scattered over
every State in the Union"
The resolution was introduced by
Senator La Toilette, Republican, of
Wisconsin. and comes before the Senate
somewhat modified. It asks the board
not only to admonish its banks to cut
down on the loans. but to recommend
legislation. Senator Norbeck said in his
report that the resolution Is extremely
conservative, only aiming at preventing
a further aggravation of the present
dangerous system"
