DEFICIENCY DISEASES (Continued)
Pellagra

/ UEt1ClENCX O1SEt1OE0 \NVAAsAAA~S~|
Pellagra
Pellagra is undoubtedly a nutri-
tional disease because like all OF the
nutritional diseases it seems to be
caused by a lack of important ele-
ments in the food. Pellagra Is often
found in the Southern states and IN
the southern part Of Europe and fol-
lows a restricted diet of using too
much d~evitalized food and not enough
meat or other protein. The diet Is
the most important thing to consider
in the cure.
The symptoms usually begin in the
winter when there is a smaller variety
of food to choose from. The first
symptoms are a slight nervous and
digestive disturbance, followed III the
spring by sore mouth, heartburn and
diarrhea. The portion of the skin
exposed to the sun shows q sharply
defined inflammation after which the
patient shows marked mental and
nervous changes, even insanity, In
chronic cases the patient mag have a
recurring attack each spring, becom-
ing worse every year. It seems that a
toxic absorption from the lower bowel
is a secondary cause, and a cure rests
upon a thorough bodily houseclean-
ing program.
The best diet seems to be an oc-
casional acid fruit fast of from four
to five days at intervals of a month
apart, followed by a well balanced
diet as suggested in my weekly menus
found in this paper. 1t is especially
important that plenty of meat or
other protein foods be obtained. The
use of these menu will usually he
sufficient to correct the trouble after
the fruit fast.
Beriberi
The Chinese are a very old race,
and yet one of their first medical his
tories deals with beriberi, a disease
which is now known to be due to a
lack Of vitamin B. The sirst suspi-
cion that this disease was due to the
lack of some unknown food substance
began when it was found that those
who lived exclusively on polished rice
developed this disease, while those
who used unpublished rice did not
develop it. It was found that beri-
beri could be prevented either by
eating whole rice or by eating pol
ished rice and with it some Of the
pQlishings.
The patient affected with beriberi
has a pronounced weakness of the
legs and great fatigue upon exertion.
The stomach becomes tender, and the
muscles of the calves, hand and fore
arm usually ache. As the disease
progresses. the arms and legs may be-
come paralyzed. Some swelling or
edema usually accompanies the
trouble. Neuritis becomes well de-

A SeagOing Race

The fishermenis schooner races off Gloucester. Mass.
are not drawing the nationwide publicity that at
tended the recent America cup races off Newport: but
from almost any angle you would care to take, they
are better races and better sport.
The America cup was sought by two extremely costly
yachts, built and owned by multi-millionaire and fit for
nothing on earth but racing. The fishermens races, on
the other hand, brought together two commercial fish
ing'schooners. owned and manned by men who get their
living from the sea, capable of combating anything in the
way Of bad weather that the Atlantic can offer. The
race was a s.de-issue, a form of recreation INDUCED in
by two groups of artists in a very old and honorable
profession.
The yachtsmen got the long stories and the photographs
In the newspapers but the fishermen, to our notion,
make a more appealing contest.

Another Red Scare in the Making

The United States seems to be on the verge of another
Red" scare. The National Republican committee, fac
lions within the Democratic party, the National Grain
Journal, the "wets." the "drys," labor union officials
and union labor baiters. detective" agencies and others
are all discovering red plots galore.
1t Is getting to be both common and popular to Stig-
Matte political, economic and even social enemies with
the epithet Of Reds" The great danger is that if it gets

The National Grain Journal hooks up the cooperative
grain set-up with Soviet Russia, claiming that Alexander
Legge and Secretary of Agriculture Hyde are in secret
league with the Soviet government because Of theil en-
couragement of cooperative marketing of grain.
The National Republican committee defends Messrs.
Hyde and Legge because they are a~ppointees OF Presi-
dent Hoover and claim that Mr.. Hydes recent probe Of
Chicago grain exchange was mastery craftsmanship.
but they in turn attempt to link up the Democratic
party With Soviet leanings because Senator Burton K.
Wheeler of Montana, a Democrat, visited Russia during

officially recognize the Soviet government.
Detective agencies who have fattened upon 'red"

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Head Shakes

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-shaking is due
to a form of palsy and comes from a
degeneracy Of the nerves. The cure
is to improve your health by hygienic
measures and to remove every mental
or physical cause which may produce
nervousness.
Raw Carrots !
Question: Mrs. j. L. asks: Evil!
you please tell me what benefit I will
receive from eating a dishful of raw
carrots every day?" J
Answer: The raw carrot is an exy
cellent salad vegetable containing sew
eral of the most important organic
salts and vitamins. It makes an ex-
cellent remedy for improving bad,
pimply compilations.
The Milk Diet
Question: E. W.. r. asks: do you
recommend the milk diet as a cure
for chronic ailments?"
Answer: I often recommend the
milk diet in certain chronic diseases.
but the milk must be taken very care
fully and in limited quantities. Three
or four quarts a day are usually SUI
ficient. and the patient can seldom
take six or seven quarts, as recon-
mended by most milk sanitariums.
without bad consequences to the liver
and gall bladder following the milk
diet. It is true, you can put on a
large amount of weight with the
diet, but this weight is of very little
value to you, as it is only fatty weight.
and after a course of the milk diet
Is completed you will always find that
you feel weaker because of this &C
cumulated fat. In stomach ulcers.
gastritis and certain diseases of the
canal, the milk diet is very
valuable if taken in limited quantities,
as I have suggested.

Tax Equality as a Blessing

l-
Appointment by the city commission Of a group Of
local citizens to survey Bismarcks taxing situation should
result in benefit to the city as we'll as to the local body
polite.
The idea behind the designation of these men to in
~vestigate the valuation Of land and buildings is to put
matters Of taxation on a basis fair to everyone. Their
job is to devise q system which will remove the in
equalities in distribution of the taxing burden which may
exist at present.
This Is an aim which will have the support of every
fair minded citizen and taxpayer. Few persons wish to
evade paying their fair share of the cost Of government
and no one wishes to pay more than his fair share. II
some are favored, as the intimation now is they may be,
the rest Of the taxpayers have to take up the slack"
No one rushes to the county auditors office with his
tax payment in a spirit Of glee. The benefits derived
from the tax money are undoubted, but the cost OF
government and of public improvements never weighs
so heavily as at tax-paying time. II there Is to be
%srumbling about taxes then is when we hear it.
But add to this q sense Of injustice on the part of q
considerable number Of taxpayers and the situation be-
comes different. One mans knowledge that he is pay
ing more than some other man, whose property is of
apparent similar value. is liable to produce a canker in
his sense Of civic duty. Numerous comparisons Of this
kind are often heard in every community. It has been
heard in Bismarck just as it has been heard in other
cities and towns and about the countryside.
Very often these statements are erroneous and investi-
cation would prove them so. In many cases the injustices
are more apparent than real, and the way to bring this
home to q complaining taxpayer is to tell him the truth.
Misinformation may be combated best by honest informa-
ton. 1t is this sort Of information which the advisory
committees of taxpayers will give the public. They
are disinterested and the men named on the commits
sion to evaluate lots and land in the city limits have
established themselves in the public mind as competent
and honest.
1t viii be their job to help the city officials establish
in the mind of each taxpayer that his assessment is
what it ought to be-no more and no less. II this end
is accomplished their work will be of lasting benefit.
