Chapel Hill Chaf

Frequently the desolation OF
men when a woman's party is
going on has come under my OBJ
servation. A new variation of
this tale occurred in Chapel Hill
the other evening. Mrs. George
Coffin Taylor had a candy-pull-
ing party for her daughters, and
one of the guests was Miss Elsie
Lawrence. When the time ap-
preached for the party to break
up, Tom Lawrence went to es-
cOrt his sister home. Through
the Taylors' window he saw that
the merrymakers were not quite
ready to disperse. With the feel
ing that | believe is common to
all males on such an occasion,
he was reluctant to enter, and
so he decided to pass the time
by walking up and down on the
sidewalk. Mrs. Taylor CHANGED
to look out, and through the
darkness she saw a long, slender
form passing constantly before
the house; and she could see that
the man now and then peered
searchingly at the windows. Mr..
Taylor was not at home, else the
matter would have been very
simple. The professor would
have marched to the edge of
the yard and in his most elegant
English - Shakespearean, as
modified by the patois of South
Carolina-would have inquired
of the stranger what the hell he
meant by such a performance,
or words to that effect. The
more Mrs. Taylor thought about
it the more uneasy she became.
The man certainly did look sus-
piciOus-and he was entirely too
much interested in her house.
So she decided to telephone to
the G. K. G. Henrys, her neigh
bors across the street. Mr.. Hen
ry, examining the stranger from
his door, was no more favOrably
impressed than Mrs. Taylor had
been. He telephoned the police,
whereupon Chief Featherstone,
accompanied by another officer
for safety's sake, hastened to the
scene in an automobile. The
chief accosted the suspicious
character. Tom explained that
he was waiting for his sister,
and so the evening ended hap
PLY.
Murmurs of revolt against my
old dilapidated pipe had reach
ed my ears, and at last Clyde
Eubanks decided to speak out in
behalf of an outraged populace.
"If you'll stop smoking that old
thing, and let me have it to
throw away, I'll give you a pipe, !"
he said to me as | stood beside
his soda fountain yesterday
morning. Now might have
said no to this proposal but for
one circumstance had become
aware of signs of rebellion in
my own household, and it had
been borne in upon me the day
before that the days of my an
cient brier were limited. SO |
accepted Mr.. Eubanks' generous
offer and walked out of the store
with a handsome new pipe.

A Trip East

ton | found that one of the pas
times of the community was
smelling the custom house. A
shipload of liquors had been
seized by the Federal officers,
and 5000 cases had been locked
up in the big building across
from the waterfront. 1t was not
only under lock and key but un-
der guard night and day. "All
that stuff has not stayed in the
cases." said the citizen who
drove me by in an automobile.
you can get a Whit of it as
you pass by" In the interest of
strict truth | must record that |
did not smell it; maybe because
the wind was blowing from off
the river, maybe because had
a slight cold, maybe because the
odor was only a product of my
friends imaginative nose.
| found in Wilmington a deep
skepticism about the disposal of
alcoholic drink seized by govern
ment agents. Some time ago the
cargo of rum-running ship was
brought to land, and hundreds of
gallons of whiskey and brandy
were poured into cutters in the
sight of the multitude. But the
opinion was general that, before
the pouring ceremony, the con-
tents of the bottles and jugs had
been freely diluted, spirits being
taken out and water being put
in to fill part of the vacated
space. Ny acquaintance told me
that fine liquors which had come
off the ship were sold in Will
mington for weeks afterward. |
don't know whether this was so,
but it is evident that many peo-
pie in the city believe it.
AS in other towns / have Wis
tied near the coast, in Whining
ton | was conscious of a more
leisurely atmosphere than that
of our own piedmont region.
Does more leisurely mean more
civilized? | don't know. The
people | know in one part of
the state are as lively and en-
tel fftaining and hospitable as
they are in another. The diff
ference between the east and
the middle is a difference l
find impossible to define. ]
shouldn't be surprised if, after
all, the impression l bring home
is due to a simple physical fact:
the aspect of the countryside.
Around Chapel Hill and Durham
and Pittsboro, as you pass along
in an automobile, you see so
many banks of red clay, so many
jagged gulleys cutting through
the fields. Around Wilmington,
everywhere you go, the vegeta-
tion comes close to the roadsides.
Sometimes it is natural woods,

There is unselfish community side Of this buying

SAUERK RAUT.

No doubt many remember in famous silly season
ten years back when eating sauerkraut was regarded
as sign Of dsloyaty Not few gave up their spare
ribs and sauerkraut rather than be ranked with the
public enemy. It was at about that time too when
German fried potatoes taken from the menus of
hotels and restaurants. But these foods have come
back, not exactly with vengeance but in properly
sustaining way.
Last year four hundred thousand forty five gallon
barrels Of kraut made and sold in this country
for which the manufacturers got than three and
half million dollars. Another item Of interest is that
sauerkraut not originally German dish at ALL The
Germans and its victims rather than its in
ventors.

bage was first made in Asia and then passed along into
Germany whence it found its way here. Many doctors
and detitians strong for it. They have to be to
recommend it.

THE CURE OF CONSTIPATION

| The CURE OF CONSTIPATION
| During the first period Of the cure
Of constipation il is advisable for .
patient to use one or two enemAs
daily for the purpose Of clearing out
old waste material and lessenin9 the
amount of Inflammation IN the in
festival tract. Each enema should
contain one quart Of plain warm
water, and should be taken through
a long rectal tube from an enema
bag that is suspended about four or
five feet high on the wall, with the
patient in the knee-chest position.
The use Of enemas does not pro.
vide the real cure, but is helpful
course Of treatments which tends to
lessen inflammation of the intes-
tines and to increase the flow Of
secretions. There is no danger Of
enemas weakening the bowels, as
might occur from the continual use
of strong laxatives.
It is we'll to begin the diet with
q three or four-day fruit fast, using
only one kind Of acid fruit at q meal,
eating as much as desired three
times . day. For example, use or
anges one day, apples the next, and
grapes the third, etc. You must be
careful not to eat or even taste any,
thing else, such as bread, potatoes,
soup, or candy, because If you do
you will not have the results you
desire.
After the three or four-day fruit
fast you may begin on your regular
diet, but it is advisable to avoid
stArches, sugars and milk for q
time. Eat large quantities Of greens
to provide the intestines with plenty
of bulk. This is very important at
first until the intestinal muscles
have become strengthened through
their work Of pushing the cellulose
Of the greens forward. Large salads
should be used at least twice q day,
and two or three cooked non-s tarchy
vegetables, such as spinach. carrots,
summer squash, asparagus, celery,
etc.
1t is important to cultivate the
habit of going to the toilet at 4
regular time, morning and evening.
Do not allow anything to interfere
with this habit, which will be one Of
the best that you have ever cult
waited.
Constipation is much more COM
mon in civilization than in savagery,
and this is partly due to the position
assumed at the toilet. The savage
squats and in this way the position
Of the internal organs is entirely
changed and the rectum is opened SO
that the movements are more COM
plete. This position may be initiated
by drawing q chair in front Of you
and placing the feet on top Of the
chair, drawing the knees to the
chest.
You should walk about five miles
daily, and short walk before retir-
ing will enable you to sleep better.
You should also take daily exercises
while lying on your back in order to
strengthen the abdominal muscles
After about three weeks of the
enema regime, stop the use Of the
enemas and the bowels will usually
begin to work normally in about
three days. # they do not behave
entirely satisfactorily repeat these
