Justice and Fair Dealing

TN these great new days in which we live, amidst
the rapid development of science and transportation,
bringing all nations and peoples very close to one an
other, during these prosperous times we are expert
encing, there comes a definite and ringing challenge
to every citizen to hold the line for right and justice
in periods Of peace" remarked former Speaker Rob-
et Lee Bobbitt to the Confederate veterans at the
thirty-second annual reunion Of Camp Ben McCul-
Tough. 1--WE simply engage in the philosophy OF fool
ing ourselves when we fail to recognize the dangers
which beset us on every hand, both from an inter-
national and national standpoint. True citizenship
consists not only in following the flag gladly in time
of war while the drums are beating, or Of taking a
temporary or spasmodic interest in the affairs OF gov
eminent now and then, but rather in the everlasting
and definite dedication Of the best that is in each OF
us to the cause of good government, based upon JUS
tice and fair dealing"
Former Speaker Bobbitt has been picked for at
torney general by newspaper correspondents he has
been picked for a place on the nine-judge supreme
court bench; he has been introduced, informally and
unofficially, as a gubernatorial possibility.
Diminishing all this, to quote from the vocabulary
Of the man in the street, in addressing the veterans,
the pride Of Laredo and the Rio Grande said a
ynouthful."

tobacco growers were helpless.

were unorganized. They were victims of the credit
system. Dairymen Of the west and the northwest are
cooperatives. They are the masters OF their own in

the prices. They move along scientific selling lines.
Some day the southern cotton grower may get the
idea. Then he will bow to the cooperative plan of
doing business and have a choice in fixing the price
of the basic staple Of a vast territory.

HOT WEATHER ADVICE TO
MOTHERS OF BABIES

Every baby must be given the best
Of food. Until 1t Is old enough to
take solid food, mothers milk on
cows milk properly modified Is all
the child should have except a little
orange juice or tomato juice every
day.
The fortunate baby Is the one fed
by the mother. If she is well enough
and has a sufficient supply OF milk,
that is the ideal way.
Unfortunately breast feeding Is
not possible in every case. In that
event the mother must find q
source Of supply for h~igh-grade
cows milk. You must take no
chance about this. It is absolutely
necessary to be sure that the milk
comes from a healthy COW and Is
properly handled before it comes
into TIE mothers hand.
In the preparation Of the cows
milk for the use Of the baby, there
are certain details which must be
observed. Your doctor or the dis
trict nurse will explain these to you.
Let me point out now that clean
illness Of milk, cleanliness OF the
hands that handle it. and cleanli-
ness Of the utensils used in its modi-
ficstion, ere essential to the health
and life of the baby.

short, her stockings too thin, her
heels too high.
But she was pretty, all the same,
and she had an air of dash and
snap that made her very attractive.
Billie introduced the tall, plain,
quiet looking fri first.

Mugs secretary" she said. "And
this is Miss Willie Taicott, who
helps her"

she said airily, pulling a bright pur-
pie hat down over her mahogany
hair.

gentle and sweet.

gone.
Winnie TaIcott is the office pet"
Billie Langenau told Chatty, as they
stepped out Of the Kinney building
into the sunny, crowded streets,
where vendors were selling violetS
and boys were dashing through the
crowd with newspapers, and every
body and everything looked gay and
cheerful and full of the job OF life.

dreamy. She was wondering if the
girl she had seen with the red

in Mr.. Van Mugs office.
IF she does, I haven't seen her
yet" she said to herself. But per-
haps she works in some other office
and maybe she doesn't work at
all. Maybe she's one Of the girls
who don't have to do anything but
wait for some man to come along
and marry them"
She wondered If the red-headed

you do it you'll be fresh and clean

with the boy friend!" Chatty
repeated the words to herself. i
wonder what she'd say if she knew
that I've never had a boy friend in
all my life? She'd never believe it,
Of course"
For she could tell, just by looking
at Billie L%angenau, that she was
the kind Of girl who has "boy
friends" from the time she starts to
school until she walks down the
church aisle to the strains of Here
Comes the Bride" Her brown hair
was wavy and had golden tints in
it. Her eyes were the friendliest,
sweetest eyes that Chatty had ever
SEEN.
And everything about her was so
clean and sweet ... Her little fin
gers, with their polished pink nails.
Her skin, with a film Of flower
scented powder on it. Her black
satin dress, with its spotless white
organdy collar and cuffs.
At noon she took Chatty out into
the cloakroom with her.
Well go to lunch together today"
she said. Your first day Is pretty
hard, I know, and we'll go out and
forget it for forty-five minutes. To-
morrow and always after that, one
Of us at a time will go out-so that
therell always be someone on the
job in our department in case any,
one wants anything out Of the
files"
There were two other girls in the
cloakroom.
One was a tall, plain girl, in a
plain serge dress and low-heeled
shoes.
The other was . bit wild looking.
Her hair had been dyed a dark red,
and it stood up in ringletS all over
her head. She had mascara on her
eyelashes and bright scarlet paint
on her mouth. Her skirts were too

Health and Right Living
By ROYAL s. COPELANC, NJ. ID.
Former Commissioner Of Health

Not long ago I told you about the
dangers which result from the abb
sorption Of body poisons. Why is it
we overlook the Importance of this
subject?
I have no doubt that constipation
is a far greater factor in disease
production than is generally be-
lieved. 1t stands to reason that the
presence inthe body of a ferment-
ing mass, must give rise to unpleas-
ant symptoms.
Fortunately. the lining membrane
Of the lower bowel, the colon, is SO
constructed that absorption through
its tissues is not great. But, in spite
Of this protective measure, happily
provided by far-seeing Nature. there
is some invasion Of the body by this
route.
Not only is there direct absorption.
but bacteria or germs find in the
content of the colon just exactly the
proper conditions for rapid growth.
Ultimately these agents, possibly of
disease, are taken up by the blood.
Once more we have occasion to be
grateful to the Master Creator. Pro-
vision has been made to filter out of
the blood these poisons, whether
they be chemical or bacterial.
But If their quantity and number
are too great, the poor, overworked
liver cannot handle them. Then
they get into the general blood
| stream and are carried to every part
Of the body.
Just what will happen then de-
ponds on chance and the resistance
of the individual. We are confident
however, that rheumatism, heart
disease and various Of the so-called
'degenerative diseases" may be
traced to the evil elects of chronic
constipation.
1t is unwise to regard constipation
as an unimportant condition. 1t is
certainly as much a mistake to neg
lect the intestines as it is to neg
lect the teeth. Neither should be
done.
Almost invariably constipation is
the direct effect of wrong eating. a
proper selection of foods will be
likely to benefit any case.
OF course there are other factors.
The walls Of the intestines are large
ly muscular. These muscles are
just as dependent on right living as
are your other muscles.
Nobody need be told the impor-
lance of exercise, sunlight and the
out-of-door life as being capable of
benefiting the general muscular sys-
tenn. They are just as important to
the welfare of the intestinal
muscles.
Think owe what / have said to-
day. Perhaps you. too. are among
those n%eglecting the intestinal tract.

Star Lore
MERCURY AN INVOLVEMENT
WORLD 20 SEE

BY Arthur Dew. Carpenter
Mercury keeps SO close to the sun
that very few people ever have seen
it. When at its greatest elongation
east of the sun, it is evening star;
west of the sun, it is morning star.
When in most favorable position to
be observed along either eastern or
western horizon, it is apt to be OBJ
struceted from view by miStS and
clouds that are always more prevail
ent in those localities. Even with
clear sky Mercury may be seen for
but a brief time at any one obser-?
walton. The length Of it's orbital
period Of rotation around the sun
is 88 days.

Washington Letter
Ry C. PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, July 30-More than 100 years
ago the French architect Latrobe visited America and
ch~eerfully wrote back to a friend:
America is like Poland, for everybody in Poland
has a title"
If the number Of titles then were numerous enough
to cause comment, one can't but wonder what would
be his reaction should be visit America today and
spend some of his time in Washington.
For the capital city Of these United States is the
one place where the title business flourishes. Every
one who pretends to have standing or is conceded
standing loses no time in making connection with
one.
And always he is something Of title and IS re-
ferred to with the title.
There have been many curious outgrowths as a
result Of this. Perhaps the principal and most inter-
esting on els the exceeding awkwardness Of express
sion.
For instance, "Mr." has practically vanished when
one refers to a high official of this or a foreign gov
eminent resident in Washington. But Mrs" re-
mains. When a husband accompanies his wife to a
dinner or some other formal function, unless the
reader be familiar with names, he has no way of
telling whether the titled one was with his wife or
with some other person.

4 oablegram from Rome RECORDS the TACT That DEL
egates to the World Congress Of Librarians, including
MANY of the leading librarians of the United States,
saw some of the most wonderful books on earth when
they visited the monastery founded by st. Benedict
lust 400 years ago.
During the dark middle ages when barbarians
were sacking libraries intent on burning them, the
Renedictine monk MontecaSsino patiently copied IN
mortal works and thus preserved for the day price
less books that would otherwise have been lost for
ever.
In the list is the oldest grammar in history pre-
served intact. Montecassino kept unframed the only
original copy. Upon this all grammars, down to the
English grammar taught in American schools, have
IN part been based. Another preserved is the oldest
text of a decree by Gratian, famous codifier Of laws

DISSOCIATION

There is absolutely nothing to associate coupled
names as husbands and wives. Illustrations are to be
found daily in the newspapers. To quote at random:
The British ambassador and Lady Howard are to
make their home at Langley Park for six weeks this
summer"
THE chief justice and Mrs. Taft have gone to
Murray Bay, Canada, where they have their summer
home
The secretary of state and Mrs. Stimson enter
tanned at dinner last evening"
In these three examples the use of titles is not
particularly misleading. Almost everyone knows that
Sir ESme Howard is British ambassador, that Will
liam Howard Taft is chief. justice, and that Henry L.
stimson is secretary Of state.

But, to quote further:
The minister Of Czecho- Slovakia and Nine. We
verka have taken a cottage at Arundel Park"
THE naval attache of the Italian embassy and
Signora Lais will sail for Italy August l."
THE minister Of the Netherlands and Madame
Van Royen have closed the legation and sailed for
Europe"
There is a mere handful of people who know the
full name of the minister of the Netherlands and even
fewer who know who the naval attache of the italian
embassy is.
AS a result there is a certain awkwardness in ex-
preston that could be avoided. One can understand
why the French refer to high and low alike as merely
"Citoyen" and Cheyenne"
Perhaps the advent Of women into high official po-
sitions will bring about a reform.
1t is hard to believe that newspapers would be per-
nitted long to report that:
