The liquor problem and the narcotic problem are two dis

The Porter law will keep them separate
The League of Nations committee narcotics failed dis
may last winter to limit the production Of opium because the
producing countries refused to agree limitation
Opium proftabn its various manufactured forms is
worth its weight in gold It is surprising that the League

Too much money was involved for of its members.
The United States fortunately not member Of the League
s however the most promising market for narcotic manuac
turers It has large and growing population of narcotic ad
diets and it can pay fancy prices for the product
That why the Hearst newspapers have been fighting
stenty and consistently for the Porter the

Crisis in Fiscal Affairs Of

Failure Of Congress to Agree viii Be Serious.

There is serious side the deadlock between the Senate

than reach mpasse seemingly firm in their de-

there sound for this being the outcome Settle

These differences not deep enough to warrant legislative
holdup J.
The fact is that it not the actual differences pay
that stake The differences more or less
personal with resentment against the attitude Of Representa-
tive Simmons and those who support him in the House. Our
fremen policemen may become the victims OF these ami
osies their would be far better to accept the
pay scales indorsed by Mr.. Simmons
There is most important principle involved ina the diff

Senate resentment House bosss bringing about bitter
ness that will be difficult to set aside.
The House, whole has listened for so many years to
the charges of Appropriations Committee bosses that Wash

It will be difficult to have members change but many Of
them are ibued too with antagonism against bosssm and

The Senate knows well that while this cys tax rate is
comparatively low the assessments upon which the rate IS
based are about highest the country. If the assessments

and would not be Objectionable to taxpayers.
The Senate cannot be wrong all the time in this matter.

There was so much in life

How should I set his feet
straight? I hadn't chosen
wisely for myself, nor set my
own feet straight-then, how
could I guide him?
Over and over I asked my
self those questions. Bruce,
as thousands of mothers and

I couldn't decide life for him.
I couldn't choose what he was

HIM THE BREAKS, AND
TAKE A CHANCE HE'D MAKE

I could give him all I had
all the love and labor and
faith and pride that was in
me. And then trust him to do
his best with it.
That's what I did with my
son, Bruce. And I've never
been sorry. My boy died when
he was 81. That isn't very

counted in character it was
plenty. He lived long enough
to make good. I don't know
whether he'd have been a 'aw-
yer. or a locomotive engineer
a millionaire or a hobo-and I
don't care. HE WAS A MAN.
That was enough.
Tell that to Fred. Bruce. Tell
him to give the boy the breaks.
Love him and believe in him
and give him all he has-and
take a chance on the rest.

Secrets of Health
BY DR.. Louis E. Bisch-

The average person feels best
when the wants Of nature are
complied with regularly and
daily, yet again there are others
who seem to enjoy good health
without daily attention to the
digestive tract.
That marked individual diff
ferenceS exist as regards con-
Stipation and its mental and
bodily effects there can be no
question.
In some the s ighteSt devia-
ton from routine leads to head.
ache, mental torpor and even
depression. III others no such
effects are >cted.
It remains, therefore. for
each individual to study his own
nature in this respect.
However, many persons are
bothered with the problem as
to what to eat or what medi-
cines to take so as to keep the
digestion free and acGlve.
Drugs should not, Of course,
be taken for sluggish ntestines,
unless exercise, diet and all
other measures fail.
Change in the customary diet
should always be given a fair
trial first.
Plenty Of leaves and stems,
what is called "roughage." is of
the greatest benefit. Turnip
greens, broccoli, spinach. cab
bage, brussels sprouts, celery,
onions, peas, beans and all the
salads like lettuce, chicory, dan
dsion, ETC., are excellent in
this respect.
Dried fruits as well as fresh
