THE HIDDEN SPRINGS OF
POWER

A man who is too lazy to shave
off his beard may nike the excuse
that it is bad for the throat to be
clean shaver. Some still claim that
it is wrong to shave because God in
tended the flowing beard for mans
protection and decoration.
Many cling to habits of the past
because of mental inertia and the
fact that it takes certain amount
of physical and mental effort to
change to new habits, even though
they may be good ones.
The willingness to experiment
with new ideas is browning glory
of human achievement. There was q
time when one who attempted to
change from an established custom
was looked upon as hereto and
was Stunned by other members of
the tribe.
Many people fall into the habit Of
drifting into certain groove Of
thinking, and they fail to realize
their hidden powers. AS is related
in a Hindoo fable. there was once
lioness who, while heavy with
young, went about in search Of food.
She fell upon flock of sheep, but
the eXertion brought about her
death. While yet dying. a young
lion was born to her and grew up
with the sheep, all the time thinking
he was sheep. He learned to nibble
grass and to feel ike the rest Of
the flock, frisking about and playing
with them, until one day another
lion came upon the scene This WIS.,
iting lion was amazed to see the
other young lion acting like a sheep,
and he said to him, Don't YOU know
that you are lion ?" And the young
lion answered, mo. I am a sheep"
and started to bleat. Whereupon
the other lion took him down to the
edge Of the water and made him
look at his own reflection. A great
revelation came to him. as he re-
allied for the first time he was
really a lion. Consequently his
whole attitude changed, and he let
out a roar that rocked the hillside.
At once he felt the strength Of a
lion, and he and the other lion
pounced upon the flock of sheep and
had good meal.
There are many people going
through life who have power and
strength far greater than they re-
alize. They must be awakened. AS
long as they bleat about their weak
ness, they can expect and receive
weakness. When they come to a
sudden realization of the strength
which is really theirs, they will be
like q lion in strength.
In an emergency, most people
have far more strength than they
realize. If they would tap this
power of life they would be aston
ished at their success in the world.
Live and be as your own true
self, and cast off the sheepish quail
ties and inferiority complexes which

digestive juices. Place under flame
for about Is seconds, then quickly
turn. Continue turning every few
minutes until cooked as desired.
The object Of this quick turning at
the start is to get both sides Of the
steak scared as soon as possible and
thus avoid losing the juice which
would otherwise run away immedi-
ately il the underside Of the steak
became hot before being scared.
Steak may be eaten rare, medium or
well done, as preferred, for digestion

treatment of perncious anemia have caused flooding

The magazine points out that while liver and liver
extract are of remarkable value to sufferers from
pernicous anema, they should never be used except
on the advice Of doctor. Many anemia sufferers as

Editorial Comment
THE SYMPHONY UNFINISHED
Detroit News

The contest for the completion Of Schubert's "Un-
finished" symphony is ended and the symphony re-
mains unfinished. The prize has been awarded the
Swedish composer, Kurt Atterberg, not for scherzo
and finale to be tackled to Schuberts work. but for
whole symphony whose only relation to Schubert
is that it begins in the same key and is meodous.
Ossip Gabrilowtsch and oher nromnent
had much to do with the outcome Of the contest Dis
patches from Vienna say in the finals of the COMPETE
ments of Schubert's symphony were even considered.
Either the Judges decided that nothing had been SUBJ
mted that was worthy of Schubert, they feared the
verdict Of the public and decided to be the safe side
Whatever the motive may have been that guided the
Judges, they were wise The unfinished" symphony
remains as it was left, incomplete but surely, a
great work OF art finished to the highest degree And

homage to Schubert by Of Europes most skillful
living composers. Thus dangerous scheme ends WELL

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: Jack writes: II am IA
years old and am very embarrassed
by my voice, which I cannot seem
to control. Sometimes it is very
high and sometime very rough.
Why is this ?"
Answer: AS a youth approaches
maturity his voice box or Adams
apple cnlarges, producing longer
vocal cords and deeper tones. This
change takes place within a remark
ably short time, and it takes a while
for one to get the vocal cords under
perfect control. A girls larynx does
not enlarge in the same manner as
q boys. consequently women do not
have big Adams apples as a rule,
nor deep voices, and they are not
troubled with the changing pitches
OF tone because their larynxes en-
large very slowly in proportion to
their growth.
Question: Mrs. J. asks: "What is
the chemical composition of dried
figs ?"
Answer: The chemical COMPOST
ton of dried figs varies, but the
average is about as follows: Water
~ per cent. protein per cent, fat
z per cent. suga- and othe. carbo-
hydrates I'LL per cent, mineral mat
ter 2:95 per cent. The mineral mat
ter is arranged in the following
proportions: Potassium AL parts,
sodium .4.5 parts. calcium 3.4 parts.
magnesium 2.54 parts, iron 6 parts.
phosphorus 4.63 parts, sulphur 1876
parts, silicon 1.5 parts, chlorine g
parts.
Question: Mrs. R. D. S, asks:
What treatment would You recon-
mend for adhesions? Can thew be
cured by diet and exercise. or is
surgery the only cure? Are they
likely to cause serious digestive dis
turbances. gas, constipation, etc. ?"
Answer: Many adhesions may be
stretched or even broken by hand
manipulation so that they will not
prove troublesome. Admissions are
always a result of inflammation and
can usually be avoided by living cor.
rectly.
