Time Out!

Time Out!
I got this idea at foot bali game
Something happened, like a black eye
or a broken rib, so the referee held uE
the game and stopped the watches
The time during which they were fixing
the orb or rib did not count. 1t wa.
thrown out.
Why can't we have something like
that in the great love game we are
playing? OF course, don't mean that
we shall stop the clock for repairs, but
still we might have certain timeles:
moments or zero hours when we tall
right out without having it recorded
against us. An Edison might invent q
lovers clock which would drop a minute
now and then without really losing it.
A man and a girl are going together
but they don't keep in step. They can't
Savvy each others wishes or motives.
They try mind reading, but they aren't
expert enough to dope out what's be-
hind the others brow. Then comes the
falling out, which would have been pre-
vented If onlu they had time out"
The man could use this special mo-
ment to ask the girl what she would
say in case he did propose. She, on
the other hand, could take a minute
out of the zero hour to ask him about
his intentions, which seemed to her to
have a matrimonial trend. It would be
time out" and nobody hurt.
To be able to say just what is in your
mind without having this counted
against you would be a great boon to
all people who wish to live fully and
sincerely. Most of us have to pretend
we have interest in people when the in
terest Is not there or act as though we
didn't care about man when We really
think he's a hero.
In this flapper age Of the worlds
history, there is now something likesthe
time-out business which I am recon-
mending, but we are still far away from
a perfect understanding with one an
other.
We have learned how to set the clock
according to daylight saving time. We
could learn how to work the hands on
time outs ever and anon.
In foot ball they use the time out to
repair the damage done to the players
head. With our time out, we could
prevent injury to the heart.
The law allows three days grace in
meeting obligations Of one sort or an
other. Why couldn't we have three
minutes grace in which a girl and a
fellow could speak right out and say
what they mean?
1t would be fine for the men, for they
cans take hint easily. We could tell
them just what we think without being
thought snooty. Yes, If we only had
time out"

Timothy Dexter u S. A. Made Himself Lord and Lived
Like One.
J. GLASS.
BY J. p. GLASS.

When, during the American Revolu-
ton, the continental currency became
practically worthless, Timothy Dexter
| of Newburyport, Mass, invested prac-
tically all his capital in it.
Crazy" said his neighbors, winking
and winding wheels at the side of their
heads with pointed fingers.
Timothy said to himself that If, as he
had heard, some hard-headed wealthy
Boston patriots were investing in the
currency, why shouldn't he?
Peace and firmly established United
States Government brought the value
OF his purchases to par. Timothy closed
up his modest leather shop, and en-
barked on important enterprises. His
speculation had netted him SAT, 900, and
he was, for the time and place, rich
man.
His contemporaries, his successors and
his biographers have fixed Dexter def
nitely as goofy individual. If goofi-
ness consists in doing successfully
everything that everybody else regards
as crazy, then he fits his picture. But
nearly all his abSurditieS produced re-
markably fine results.
For instance. he Is said to have
shipped eight shiploadS of bed-warming
pans to the torrid West Indies, the last
place on earth where they might be ex-

of them all-for use as frying pans and
dippers for skimming boiling cane
Sirup.
1t is recorded that he also sold 81 900
Bibles to the blacks of the same islands
who couldn't read them. The selling
method consisted in convincing them
that they would go to hell If they didn't
own one of the good books"
In those and similar ventures he
made large profits. He seems to have
proved that it is possible to be success
full by being crazy.
But he went further than that. He
demonstrated that a man needs only
his own thoughts to make him what
he wishes to be.
He wanted to be lord. Had he lived
In England he might have obtained a
peerage, but since he was in the United
States this was not possible. He found
simple way to surmount all Difficult
ties. He styled himself Lord Timothy

DIET AND HEALTH
By LULU HUNT PETERS, M. D.

Recently told reader who was fond
of eating raw starch that she really was
suffering from a form of plea, which is
depraved or perverted appetite Tor IN

infrequently showed q mineral def
cheney in the diet.
am bringing this up again because I
should not have limited the deficiency
to minerals, for in reality these de-
PRAYED appetiteS may also be due to q
deficiency Of other elements especially
the vitamins. In other words, the diet
that is deficient in any way may result
in a depraved or perverted appetite.
The craving for drugs and alcohol is
depraved appetite. How much Of that
may be due to deficient diet we don't
know, but certainly the sufferers from
such appetites should have their diets
looked into. Not long ago "Ex-Tank"
wrote that he found tomato juice allay-
ing his craving for liquor. Aside from
the zest of the stimulating acid taste,
tomatoes are very high in vitamirls, and
they no doubt supplied a need he had
for them. Orange and other fruit juices
and vegetable juices would probably act
the same. In the modern institutions
where they treat drug and alcohol ad-
diets nourishing diet, with especial
attention to the vitamtrS, Is part OF the
treatment.
other effects Of deficient diets, be-
sides depraved appetite and lack of APP
petite, include lowered tissue resist
ance.
It is well known that ricketts, is q
disease due to a vitamin D deficiency,
and that scurvy Is a disease due to q
deficiency Of vitamin C, and pellagra,
a disease due to lack of vitamin B and
perhaps complete protein. 1t will prob
ably be shown that some other obscure
diseases are due to lack of either the
vitamins or the mineral elements.

The London officer is, perhaps, the
politest Of all authorities. He towers

Of our American cities. SO long as he
performs his duties faithfully he holds
his job. Thus he is an independent

King, Minnesota commander Of the

mems and women's groups through
out the United States demand Of con-
gress sufficient funds to supply hos
pital beds for disabled wal veterans.
In a message to the Women's Over
seas Service league In session here,
King suggested representatives of vet.
eran organize ions meet in q central
conference to plan presentation of
their demands to congress.
For the first time in history we
have been beaten on the floor of con-
grcsS in our request for beds for the
disabled" King said. The house
voted us Sill ,000. 900 for disqualification
purposes and then the senate let the
bill die in committee. Until mems
and women's service and patriotic
groups know their strength politically,
we can expect no better treatment for
our sick and disabled men. I hope I
never will see the day when the
American Legion will become active
politically as a group. But I hope I
will never fail to see the day when
the individual legionnaires become
active politically in behalf Of our
boys"
