NO TROUBLE
 AT ALL NOW
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN Has
 Benefited This Woman

Millions today are eatin 2 Kellogg's ALL-BRAN-guaranteed to relieve both temporary and re- curing constipation.
 The cause of constipation is the lack of roughage in food. Add suffi- cient roughage and constipation dis appears. Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is nearly all roughagc.
 Here is a letter from Mrs. II. Gilbert, 107 E. Knight Ave, Collingswood, N. J., which will be interesting to many sufferers:
 'T had a very serious operation in
 October and when I came from the
 hospital my main trouble was con-
 stipation. One day l said to the doctor.
 I am going to eat ALL-BRAN, and
 since I started l have TO trouble what
 ever. So you see I can't praise it
 enough and am always telling my
 friends what il did for me-"
 You will enjoy the nut-like flavor of this delicious, ready-to-eat cereal. It is rich in iron, and when eaten with milk or fruit juices, adds i'm portant vitamins to the diet.
 Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is an es- sential in any reducing diet. It means everyday health to people all over the world. Your grocer has it n.the red-and-green pack age. Served everywhere. Made by Kellogg in Battle Greek.

The Republicans seem to be lying

they expect to carry the county for

not yet harmony in that part either.

Paul Sommer, of Morgantown, and
Ed. Alexander have been elected as

brought up by Slim Shaw, but the

The Inaugural Parade

Scoop wasn't going to say anything
about an inaugural parade for Mayor
Stemple until "Monk" saw Col. Bell
and requested an especially elaborate
affair. So, after writing to the An
Gent Order of Corn Justice Extrac-
tors from Hoyes; Order of Mystic
Kegs, Sand Flat; the politicians from
Swanton and Sheriff Casteel, of Oak
land, Scoop decided he could have a
mammoth parade and inaugural cere-
mony on next Monday evening, as
they ali promised to be there.
The sheriff has decided to let out
his "birds" so that they can join their
respective societies as they appear in
the parade, and as Scoop is glad to
announce that he has again engaged
the services of the Shantytown cadets,
and the Quality Hill Fife and Drum
corps, the parade promises to be the
biggest inaugural event since the
Fair was held in Sweeney's pasture
lot.
Mayor Stemple wants to be crowned
queen of April Showers right in front
of the City hall, and in order to bring
him to the proper place at the right
time the parade will form in Hogan's
alley and will proceed through Sween-

SCOOPS COLUMN

We can make our lives sublime,
And departing leave behind US
Footprints on the sands of time'-
but not by simply being named after
some of them. At least that is the
opinion of those who watch the book
in the Office of the Clerk of the Cir
cult court which contains the names
of all applicants for marriage licen-
ses.
Seldom, if ever, has an applicant
come to Oakland for marriage IL
cense, with a first and middle name
like William Mckinley, George Wash
ington, Isaac Newton, BENJAMIN
Gump, Major Hoople, Theodore
Roosevelt Oliver Wendell or William
Jennings, who ever amounted to
more than truck driver, day laborer,
or a glass blower, a persual of the
records shows.
The fond parents who name their
children after some idol may be hitch
ing their wagon to a planet, but
wouldn't it be far better to give them
a handicap to overcome such as Ethel
bert, Percival, Reginald, Angelina,
Sylvesterita, or force upon them the
desire to become radio announcers.
This almost assures success for your
prodigies, but don't blame Scoop if
this recipe doesn't work, because if
Ethelbert turns out to be only a
truck driver or an ice man, it's Just
going to be too bad, that's all-too
bad.

The Amalgamates combined with
the IZaak Waltons of the Ananias
club in throwing a big April FOOLS
party on the banks of the Little
Yough river, just below the mill dam,
on Tuesday morning about 1870 a.

Since the fishing season had only
just begun, Jim Painter contented
himself by telling a story which near
ly everybody believed, but when the
Amalgamates suggested really get
ting down to work and fixing some
bricks in sacks and pocketbooks with
strings attached to fool the Oakland
people, that was too much for any
body to believe.
1t is rumored, that because of
April's well known weather, the party
was all wet but this would not be
verified by any of the members or
Reed Smouse.

She has been too busy readiust-

"The second reason is that we,
as a country, are SO rich in our

should accept a new interpreted

Italians True to Their
Native Music

New York City.-Coming from
Italy, the people of which are the
most musical in the world
William Scott, famous orchestra
conductor, has an interesting
theory about the great and sudden
popularity Of modern American
jazz abroad.
During the World War. before
America became an Ally" he saws
"she was the only nation with time
to develop her music. She brought
jazz, in its earliest stage, into the
trenches with her. Her foreign
comrades-in-arms received it dur
ing what was probably the high
est emotional peak in their lives.
"They took it back home with
them. This was the beginning of
its steadily increasing popularity
Mr.. Scott explains.
! "Italy alone, of all the countries
did not, until today, begin to know
and accept jazz. Now it is heard
all over my native land. There
are two reasons for Italy's be-
lated recognition of jazz.

il does not freeze in moderate

when the temperature is 40 to so
degrees below zero the ruptures of
tissues in trees caused by freezing
ran often be heard as a sort of
sharp report. As a rule freezing
that produces sufficient pressure to
rupture the tissues results in verti-
cal cracks running up and down

In succeeding seasons of growth
the tree attempts to heal over
these cracks but ridges of protrud-
ing scar tissue remain as evidence
of the ruptures. The wood of trees
is frequently frozen, but generally
no serious rupture results because
the moisture is evenly distributed

Pharaoh's Curse in Garage

Centuries before Socrates drank
the hemlock men knew that anyone
shut in a small room with a brazier
of burning charcoal would be taken
out dead. Even savages knew, as
they know now, that because of
some terrible poison-the oldest
known to mankind-safe fires are
to be built only at the mouths of
caves and not in the unventilated
depths. We now recognize the poi
son to be carbon monoxide, and its
presence in long-unopened caves or
tombs probably explains the mys
ferrous deaths of early excavators
and tomb robbers, and may be re.
sponsible, it has been suggested, for

"Police Force" Keeping
Insect Pests in Check

For a good many years now
science has been fighting insect
armies. and, euriously enough,
amongst its most potent weapons
are insects themselves. 1t has been
found that there is hardly an in
sect which is not proved upon by
some other kind. Nature has, in
fact, evolved a kind of insect DO.
lice force, which keeps marauders
from becoming too numerous. The
greenfiy, which does so much dam
age to roses, has a powerful foe in
the larva of the ladybird. while
ichnumon flies serve to keep the
devastations of caterpillars within
bounds.
But this police force is not al
ways adequate and science is en-
gagged in the production of flying
squads. Whenever a plague of OBJ
noNious insects is noticed in any
part of the empire, others which are
known to prey upon the pests are
bred in large numbers at an insect
zoo in a Hertfordshire village and
are sent out to do battle.
Policeman insects have already
been sent to Australia. New Zaa-
land. Canada, India, Africa. and
the West Indies. and every year the
flying squad of the scientists is
waging more and more relentless
war upon insect robbers and pirates
in all parts of the world.-London

Origin of Some Names of
Garments Now Cornme

Goat comes from the word that
formerly meant a frock as well, the
same word being found in the Ital-
ian GOTTA short surplice worn
by the clergy. "Frock' is from a
Latin word meaning a shaggy cloak.
skirt" comes from the same word
as shirt" Trousers is from the
French "trouser,n to tuck or fasten
up. Boot" is connected with the
Italian .'botta." a hollow skin.
Sock comes from "soeeus,n a kind
of shoe originally worn by Roman
comic actors, and Stocking is from
Teutonic word. "stock," the stump
of tree-henee, covering for the
"stumps," or legs! Jacket" is from
"iaeque," coat of mail. "Jer-
seys" were made from yarn spun in
Jersey. robe" is from Latin
word, "ruba," meaning spoil" or
'plunder'-fine clothes being once

Muslin is said TO get its name
from Mosul, Turkey, where 1t was
first made. "Marocains traces its
origin to MaroS-French for Mo-
rocco. Tweed" was originally
"tweel." but its association with the
river Tweed led to its being given
treally mistakenly its present
name.
