ton Of the throat.

BACK TO AN OLD TRADITION

It is extremely interesting to read that the United
States Lines are planning To- build two huge new ocean
liners. each OF them larger than the Leviathan. What
makes 1t interesting chiefly Is the fact that these big
ships will be built in America and will fly the American
flag.
Before the Civil war American shipbuilders and own
es we're in the forefront Of the ocean transportation
field. The speedy clippers turned out at New York and
Boston were as good as any alloat, and were extremely
good Investments.
Then our ocean commerce dwindled: and 1t has been
many years since any large-scale building for the trans
atlantic trade had been done in this country. The
present move Of the United States Lines is merely q
return to the old tradition.

THROWING AUTOS AWAY

The facctious question. What on earth becomes Of
all the old autos" has been current ever since our auto
mobile age began. The National Automobile Chamber
OF Commerce. looking into the matter, has the answer;
they get tossed on to the scrap heap.
Every year the United States scraps 2,450.O00 auto
Of the entire number in the country.
Indeed, the American people are throwing away, annual
iy, onc-third as many autos as there are in use In all the
rest OF the world.
The Chamber OF Commerce points out, incidentally.
that the average life of an automobile In this country is
about six years and nine months. Which. when you con-
slider the automobiles cheap price. isn't q bad record
at all.

cigarette smoking is not necessarily
harmful providing you do not inhale
the smoke. 1t is now not believed
that nicotine is taken into the sys.
tenn through smoking, but is burned
and destroyed by the fire. However,
if you inhale any tarry-like sub.
stance, it is deposited in the lungs,
and this is decidedly harmful.
Gastritis
Question:-Mrs. w. l.. writes:
"Plcase advise me what to do, and
what causes my stomach to have a
raw feeling that seems to extend
up to my throat even to the nasal
passages? My throat looks rough
and red, with a burning sensation,
and l have ulcers in my mouth. Am
very and cannot sleep after
eating even light food, such as toast
and milk. Have gas on my stomach
and my heart beats hard and fast
after eating"
Answcr:-Your trouble is, at least,
gastritis, and you possibly have the
start of stomach or duodenal ulcers.
The cause is over-acidity of the
stomach; which is created through
dietctic indiscretions. Milk and
toast are not particularly light
foods, but an exclusive milk diet
should prove helpful in your case.
Try taking four ounces Of certified
milk every hour for a few days, and
then double the quantity used each
time so that you take eight ounces
every hour from early in the MORN
ing until you go to bed. II this
does not relieve you, consult a good
diagnostician and have a careful ex-
animation made In which the X.ray
is used to determine exactly your
condition.
Ringing in Head
Qucstion:-A. p. NJ. asks: "What
r the non-mucous-forming foods
which will cure ringing in the
head?"
Answcr:-Head noises are usually
caused by catarrh of the inner ear,
and will disappear as soon as the
excess catarrhal mucus is thorough
ly drained out. The diet for such a
condition should consist principally
of small amounts Of meat, fish, fowl,
eggs, non-starchy vegetables cooked
and raw, and fruits. 1t is best to
avoid all starches and sugars, as
we'll as milk products. These may
be said to be notwithstanding if used
in excess quantities, and the one who
is trying to cure himself of catarrh
should avoid the carbohydrates and
hydrocarbons as much as possible
until the cure is effected.

IT E ICE AGE

If ice were suddenly wiped. off
the face Of the earth along with our
systems of refrigeration, all OF the
large cities, during the summer time,
would find themselves without fresh
meat, without fresh milk, or eggs.
Butter would be served melted, and
a mighty odor Of spelling fish and
meat would smite the 1ostrils.
Photographers would have trouble
in getting out gelatin plates. and
the enormous mountains of ice
cream cones which we consume each
day would cease to be. Cheeses
now shipped and ripened with the
aid of ice would no longer have a
uniform flavor, and the distilleries
would have difficulty in controlling
their beer and hops.
The farmers would have to stop
shipping long trains Of perfectly
kept fruits and vegetables from the
gardens, from the farms to the city
centcrs. The margarine manufac-
turcrs would have a hard time pre-
senting the housewife with a butter
substitute, and chocolate manufac-
turers would have to begin all over
again, back at the time when it was
impossible to accomplish some of
the processes Of chocolate making
during the summer.
The silk worm eggs, accustomed
to being retarded by cold until the
mulberry leaves are ready for them,
would hatch too soon, and this would
have a disastrous effect on the silk
stocking industry. No one in the
city could SAY 1t with flowers
when the blossoms could no longer
be regulated as to blooming time,
nor shipped OF stored in lowered
temperatures.
The dynamite manufacturers who
keep their dangerous explosives at
low temperatures while nitrating,
and the blast furnaces would have
their worries also. The artificial
ice skating Kinks, such as those in
California and Florida which depend
on man-made ice, would have to
close their doors.
While these things important,
I believe that the greatest value
Of refrigeration to the world has been
accomplished in handling our meat
supply, Much Of the trouble and
danger whicA we're formerly due to
eating rotting or infected meat has
been done away with by u modern
method of handling meat in a frigid
atmosphere. 1t is also beneficial to
the flavor of meat if it is kept
awhile, and it is we'll known that the
taste of chicken improves after
proper storing. Freezing meat does
not impair its value in any way, but
actually makes it more tender and
more easily dgestiblc.
America may well be termed to be
entering upon a new ice age, not
destructive like the famous age Of
millions of years ago, but this time
beneficial to life.

SELECTING GOOD IMMIGRANTS

The Commercial Law League OF America, meeting IN
Montreal. adopts q report urging amendment OF the
immigration laws so that only those who Will make good
American citizens" will be admitted to our shores hence
forth.
II this Is not done. the report predicts that popular
government In the U. 8. may become a thing Of
the past before the end OF the present century"
Ever since the adoption OF the country, we have had
seers who predicted a speedy end to popular govern
ment. We seem to have evadcd one peril only to run
into another, right from the start. 1t Is not so very
long. Is time goes, since it was asserted that popular
government would end II the aboli:ionists were not
quickly suppressed: nor is it so many decades since It
was %prophcsied that our government would tumble II
laborins men were allowed to organize into unions.
Yet, somehow, we have survived: and 1t may be that
We shall continue as a self governing nation even II our
immigration laws remain unchanged.
With the first part Of the law leagues resolution. how
ever, we are in hearty agreement. BY all means. let
US admit only such immigrants as will make good Amcri-
can citizens. First. however, we might find out how we
are ever going to tell in advance.
Outright lunat!cs and half wits. to be sure. ought to
be banned. But then what standards arc you going to
set up?
Will you raise a strict physical standard, so that no one
nnalformed or diseased can enter? You may keep out
another Steinmctz II you do.
Will you set political standards. to keep out all rebels
and radicals? Such . statute would have kept out q
certain Pole named Pulaski, who was such a radical
that he had to flee from his own country-so he came
to America. fought under Washington. was made a
brigadier general by the Continental congress for gal
lantry at Brandywinc, and was killed in action helping
to free the southland OF British troops.
Would you keep out all men who have criminal rec
ords? John Paul Jones. another hero Of the Revolution,
would have been excluded on that basis.
Would you exclude pacifists and conscientious obicc-
tors? The parents OF President Hoover could not have
come in under such q law.
The plain fact Of the matter is that humanity is un-
practicable. We might save ourselves a great deal of
trouble II We put . Chinese wall up along our borders,
and insisted that no one come across who is not exactly
like We are: but we would lose more than we would gain.
There is altogether too much worrying about immiera-
ton nowadays. anyway. Our existing laws seem. In all
conscience. to be strict enough. II we are too careful
about excluding undesirahes. we are apt to bar a few
geniuses as well. And that Is 4 chance we can't afford
to take.

HUSBAND BEFORE PRISONS

A prisoner in a state ~penitentiary
recently received a wire telling him
to come home a. once as his wife
was dying from a rattlesnake bite.
The interest in the incident does not
lie in the rattlesnake bite. but in the
fact that society so puts the human
relationship Of husband ard wife
first that a social relationship Of
state and prisoner is not ever con-
sidered when the first relationship
is threatened. What's more. prison.
ers are generally released long
enough to visit their close sick and

The "ideal husband" was recent

aided by 100 graduates Of the Uni

Earmarks Of that q avis, the
husband ideal, seem to be that he

not forget how to make love; COM
fortably provide; manage the fur
mace; not argue; control his temper;
take care Of the garbage, and take
care Of plumbing leaks.
