TREATY OF PARIS

The Treaty OF Paris was signed
Sept. 8. 1883. between Great Britain
and the United States. and marked
the end of the American Revolution
and the recognized independence Of
the colonies.
The four questions that caused
great difficulties before the nego-
tiators reached an agreement were:
the boundaries Of the United States:
fishing rights on the coast of New
fOundland: payment of private debts
due from Americans to British cred
itors. and compensation Of the Loyal
lists.
Roughly, the boundary agreed upon
was the Mississippi river on the west.
the 31St parallel OF latitude on the
south, the Great Lakes and st. Law
renee river on the north and the At
lantic ocean on the cast.
The Americans were allowed to con-
tinue to enjoy the same rights Of
fishing at newfoundland rs when
they were English c~olonists.
On the third point 1t was agreed
creditors on either side should meet
with no impediments in collecting
lawful debts contracted before the
war.
Regarding the Loyalists, the Amer
lean negotiators consented congress
should be asked to recommend to the
state legislatures to provide for resti-
tuition Of conliscated estates. and to
cease all prosecutions commenced
against persons known as LoyalistS.

It has dawned on tho soviet masters Of Russia that

GOING SHOPPING

The first step in intelligent shop
ping is for the shopper to analyzc her
own particular needs. he points out,
These may be stimulated by some
thing she has seen in a store or read
in an advertisement. but she must
determine for herself exactly what
they are before she starts to satisfy
them. Her problem is to decide what
she wants to buy. not to learn what
a manufacturer or stores wants to
sell.
He advises women to read adver-
tisemcntS as a basis for selecting
what they want about which they
want first hand information. not as a
basis for making final decisions. and
to remember that the advertiser and
merchant r talking to a wide audi
nee and women must respond as in
dividuals In terms Of their own special
conditions.

(By Alice JudsOn Pealc)


The cas- Of Jim VS.. the Common

trial.
The charge was bullying and bru-
tality to dumb animals. The prose-
cutting attorney had a mountain of
evidence, whereas the counsel for the
defendant knew that hers was a

The trial was held with all the
formality and decorum Of real court
procedure. There were objections,
rulings and overrulings. There was
the swearing n Of witnesses, question:
ing and cross questioning.
Through 1t all the counsel for the
defendant was as happy as a trout in
a brook. She battled against the
stream Of evidence, alert for CONTRA
dictions, doing her best to cloud the
issue, and finally making a mastery
plea for clemcncy on the ground that
it. rather than punishment. would be
conductive Of good conduct in the fu-
ture.
Her client was judged guilty, but
her plea for clemency was granted.
When court adjourned she looked like
the victor Of a well run race.
You know" she said later, Il don't
think I'm going to be a doctor after
all. I'm going to be a lawyer. I
just love to argue and catch peoples
mistakes. I'm glad I was on Jim's
side because 1t was the hardest. Did

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Head Shakes

1oN~h 0sA0N@O
question: j. K. Asks: What causes
the head to shake violently from side
to side when one gets nervous? What
is the cure for this condition."
Answer: The head-shakinng Is due
to a form of palsy and comes from a
d~egeneracy of the r The cure is
to improve your health by hygienic
measures. and to remove every men,
tai or physical cause which may pro-
duce nervousness.
Saccharin
Question: Miss H. writes: my
father has diabetes and I want to
know what kind Of food this sacchar-
in is that is being used as a substi-
tute for sugar. The doctor has told
him to abstain from all fruits and
most vegetables chose that have
sugar or starch in them), SO to my
mind, that leaves out the best foods.
Answer: Saccharin is often rec
commended to be used as a substitute
for sugar, although it has no food
value. It is one Of the coal tar prod
ucts and its continued use is un-
questionably injurious. Practically
all fruits may be used by the diabetic,
IS the fruit sugar alone is not suffi-
cient to produce trouble as long as
other sugar is not used. There are
very few vegetables which are starchy.
Potatoes contain from IA per cent to
20 per cent. and Hubbard squard as
high as Is per cent. The rest Of the
vegetables are only medium starchy
or non-starchy. Most of the starch
which we use comes from the cereal
foods and everything made from
flour.
Watcr-brash
Question: Mrs. I. N. asks: "Will
YOU please tell me what causes water
brash? II bothers me through the
night. Is it some kind of indigestion,
and what do you think would stop
it,"
Answer: Wafer brash usually
comes from o%vcreating or using LIQUID
with your meals. Try cutting down
on the amount Of food you arc using
at dinner. and do not use any LIQUIDS
at all after 3 p. m.
