UNWlsE INVESTMENTS

We sometimes wonder why the public year in and
year gives billions Of its hardearned money to stock
swindlers. Everybody knows the country Is polluted
with wildcat securities and still these guble ones give
their money to stranger his unsupported statement
that the stock he is selling is not gamble and is the
shortest route to wealth. Some shrewd stock statesmen
have even admitted their investments gamble and
thus appealed to the gambling instinct in their victims
Perhaps national weakness for backing stocks Is
partially explained in the report Of the United States
treasury that there $soo00oo in government secur
ties Of which the redemption dates have expired and no
longer draw interest which have not been redeemed by
their holders. The government docs everything within
its power to draw its bonds in for redemption but such
efforts can not succeed among bond holders who
obvious the interruption Of their interest payments
The experience Of the treaEury department and the
prosperity Of the dealers h worthless stocks make it
manifest that tho public Is exceedingly gulible. Is
swayed by . passion for gambling against odds has
money than 1t knows what to do with. All three
may contribute equally but the amount Of unredeemed
government securities to tip the scales little
In favor Of the third and last And 1t Is
no secret that the American people spend their money
on many other things as foolish as wildcat stocks

MARK TWAIN'S PROOF

BATTLE Ok kEIAANGION
On April 10. IT'S, the American
revolution began with the battle of
.Lcxingtor5 ThanlS4 to the ride Of
Paul Revere the night before. the COL
onial minutemen were prepared for
the coming of the British troops
The battle, fought on the village COM
mon, ended with the retreat Of the
British toward Concord.
Fighting began before five o'clock
in the morning, after q night OF ter
ror. Women and children. reused by
rumbling drums and ringing bells,
fled to isolated farms, SO with the
coming Of dawn-and the British
Lexington was practically deserted,
except for determined men who knew
that war could not be avoided any
longer.
A check made by the committee of
safety on this same day revealed
that there were only IL field pieces in
the entire state Of Massachusetts,.
Weak arms, indeed, with which to
challenge the British government!
But there had been collected 81 $40
firearms, 17.441 pounds of powder,
22,191 pounds of ball, 10000 bayonets,
and other comparatively large stores
of arms and provisions. This is inter.
esting because 1t proves that the COL
onists had regarded for some time
their fight for freedom as inevitable.

CThiS Ii the fourth OF q series OF
articles telling readers just how to
take q cleansing spring diet)
THE FIRST DAY IS THE HARDEST
This first day Of your eliminative
fruit diet will In many ways seem the
hardest Of any during this diet treat
ment. When only such q small
amount of food is used as that con-
tanned In the orange juice, your body
will begin to throw out vast quanti-
ties Of morbid material. The blood
takes this poisonous matter up and
deposits It In the lungs, kidneys. skin
and bowels, and from there It Is elm
mated through the ordinary func-
tions of these parts. While the tox-
ins are literally racing out OF the
body, they must be carried to the
eliminative organs through the blood
and lymphatic circulation.
Owing to this large amount of tox-
ins suddenly freed, you will generally
notice at least q slight headache and
usually even on the first day your
tongue will become coated. the mouth
taste bad. and your breath will have
q decidedly offensive odor.
Aids to Elimination
After two or three days the elimina-
ton Is 50 great through the skin that
your friends with . good sense Of
smell will be able to detect Q toxic
odor II they put their noses close
to your skin. The frequent sponge
bathing which I recommend will elm
mate this unpleasant odor TO some ex-
tent.
The enemas advised keep the intes-
tines comparatively free of toxic ma
terial almost as soon as 1t Is formed.
A large amount Of water drinking
will give the kidneys added fluid to
carry off the wastes which are de-
posted through these organs of elm
ination.
The deep-breathing will eliminate
the carbon-dioxide gas and other
poisons, and also assure you of plen-
tiful supply Of oxygen with which to
burn up the tissue wastes.
But in spite Of this elimination you
may feel toxic. and your head may
ache for the first day or two until
your system has succeeded in elimin-
ating the first great mass Of toxic
material which has been accumulat-
ing in your body for perhaps even
years.
I am sure that the elimination Of
toxins Is at least ten times as great
during the fruit fast as at any other
time providing you use these other
aids for elimination which have Sug-
gested.
Do not fail to follow ALL of my in
structions, as I have dieted many
thousands of patients, and know that
each detail of these instructions Is
necessary to secure the most complete
results.
Do Not Think You Can Substitute
Laxatives For the Enemas!

fail, with often disastrous results,

Talks .p&6&
-. !, Parents !
A SIMPLE QUESTION
(Bv Alice hudson pealel

Certainly it is the voice OF Satan
which says to the child through the
lips of an adult, Whom do you love
best, your mother or your dad?"
And Satan is at his wickedest when
he prompts one OF the child's own
parents to ask the question.
OF course, the parent who asks the
child to say whom he loves the most
is himself jealous Of the child's pref
erence. Such a parent loves his child
with possessive love that crippleS his
development and stands between him
and the world.
The mere asking of such q question
awakens train Of disturbing
thoughts. If the child is made to
think about it, he usually will be
forced to realize that he loves one
parent more than the other.
At once he is In conflict. II it is
his father who asks the question, and
It Is his mother whom he loves best,
he is constrained to lie miserably, or,
II he is clever, to make some tactful,
evasive answer. In any event he is
sure to feel guilty and disloyal toward
the one ne loves less.
Perhaps hts bad conscience makes
him attempt to compensate for his
lesser love by little acts Of special
demonstrativeness. He tries to show
more devotion than he feels. Love
becomes thing he owes, instead of q
free gift. Thus he begins one Of the
most painful hypocracies In human
life.
It is profoundly cruel to make the
child measure and compare his af-
fections He should accept them as
naturally and unconsciously as the air
he breathes. Fathers and mothers
must allow their children to love them
each according to the degree and kind
Of love which each calls forth.

Spring invariably brings Of forest fires in every
