The Method of Choice.

A nose and throat specialist writes

patients from the age of 10 years
upward

not last long. perhaps only thru a

Constructive Work


In very excellent edition, The Mi

interesting picture of the North Da-
kota Ignite industry, one which many
of us too often take for granted and
dismiss lightly.
The publisher of Minot's enterpris-
ing daily has set out in fine style just
what the industry means to this state
in wages 1t is piece of constructive
work, directing attention to the vast
coal deposits in this state and how
they serve North Dakota in aiding
industry generally and various kinds
of commerce particularly.
This edition is authority for the
statement that there are five hum
dred and sixteen billions of tons in
the vast coal veins of the state. Such
figures are incomprehensible and
sound like the astronomers estimate
of the distance the moon, sun and
stars are from the earth.
This states yearly production of lig-
mite is nearly two million tons a year.

some shrinkage since the peak year

COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS OF
THE RIFLE

In primitive physiology the bile was
one of the four humors and the an
clients called it choler and ascribed to
it Feasibility. To this day the term
choleric means hot-tempered, passion
ate temperament, fiery disposition,
readily excited to anger. This was as
sociated with ordinary yellow or
greenish bile, and brunets of strong
physique were SO because of their
bile.
Darker or black bile was even
worse. This accounted for melan-
choly-and sure enough, the very
meaning of melan is black or dark
| and cholic means bile.

that if any healthy person receives a

Doubtless somewhere between the
theories of these two schools lies the
way out. Public confidence must be
revived first for that, all agree, is the
cornerstone of recovery. It is at very
low ebb today because the American
people are staggering under a tax load
unequaled in all history. It saps the

cation of property goes merrily on,
some politicians are urging new bur-

BILE too is most interesting:

NO one who scans the economic
horizon carefully expects a vigorous
or boom revival of business until some
very vital political and economic is
sues are settled, but most of them are
sure that after lower levels have been
reached, the climb will be slow, steady
and substantial. Economists contend
that wage levels must 60 lower and
be expressed more in terms of what
the farmer gets for his produce. This,
they contend, will mean lower prices
for farm machinery, decreased freight
rates and complete readjustment in
all lines Of enterprise.
Other students, however, contend
that the dear dollar must be offset
by a general rise in all commodity
prices so that the debtor can repay
his obligations in currency nearer
in value to that which he borrowed.
Liquidation now, under the increased
value Of the dollar, is impossible with
no market or no price.
Only when a proper balance has
been struck, which will bring all bust
ness down nearer to the level of agri-
culture, can there be resumption OF
prosperity, say many observers. That
process entails a drastic cut in taxa
ton and all forms of governmental
expense. If rents are to go down to
some other levels, taxes must pave the
way for such an adjustment. If prod
ucts of the factory are to be lowered
10 meet the decreased purchasing
power of the farmers, then wages
must hit new levels.
Into the picture too comes trans
portation costs. On many farm prod
ucts today the price will not even
cover marketing costs. Freight charges
on many items have closed distant
markets to the farmer of the middle
west.
Here then are two schools of econo-
mists. One hopes to maintain the
present standard Of living by uphold
ing wage scale greater in many in
stances than war time through some
kind of initiation or stimulus which
will increase commodity prices to keep
pace with a soaring medium of ex-
change so that some form of liquida-
ton might be possible. There are, on
the other hand, those who declare
that the industrial bottom has not
been reached and that public conf
dence will not be restored or the latent
buying power released until everything
hits new levels. In other words the
farmer gets far too little for what he
has to sell and pays far too much in
proportion for what he must buy.
These students advance the belief
that there will be several years more

There was no going back.
In the drawing room which she
had engaged, Fanchon, in a Dor

of the windows, listening to the beat
of the wheels along the shining
tracks imposter, they said to
her, imposter, imposter.
But she argued that, in a sense,
she was doing no real harm. Jennie
Carstairs had never known Evelyn

never have loved her. The girl was
literally nothing to her, save some
one of her blood to whom she owed
a belated duty. If Fanchon took, her
place. Fanchon would, she vowed,
live up to it; she would give back
value received, for affection and
peace she would render affection and
duty in return. And when time had
passed and there was no longer any
danger, she would go quietly away
and never bother anyone again. II
was not on the cards that Evelyn
would live.
She thought of Evelyn dying,
with no one of her own about her
and her heart CONSTRUCTED with an

She opened Evelyn's big, fiat,
roomy handbag, stained with rain
and with Fanchon's own blood.
There were letters in it. From Mrs.
Carstairs. Long letters, written in
a vital, nervous sort of hand. There
was money. There were the photo.
graphs of Evelyn's parents; there
were snapshots of, Fanchon thought,
the place in which Evelyn must have
last lived and called home. There
were also snapshots of the school in
Honolulu and the one in San Fran
cisco.
1t would not be hard. 1t would
be more or less natural that Evelyn
would not speak much or often Of
her mother and father to the people
who had cast them out. As far as
Hawaii went, Fanchon was on per-
fectly safe ground there. She studied
the letters, the photographs.
Suddenly a thought reached her,
stopped her heart for an instant.
Evelyn must have written her
aunt. It was beyond conception that
her hand and Fanchon's should be
alike. Fanchon fixed that fact firmly
in her mind. She must remember.
She remembered something else,
with an effort. Remembered that
among the small pieces of luggage
Evelyn had brought on the plane
had been a little portable typewriter.
1t was quite within reason that her
letters to Mrs. Carstairs had been
written on the machine. If so, so
much the better.
She thought of the meeting that
lay ahead of her. She longed for it.
and yet shrank from it. But no
great display of affection on her part
nor on the part of Mrs. Carstairs
would be necessary or even reason
able. For they had never known
one another.
Yet Jennie Carstairs' wire had
been affcctionate in the extreme.
Due. thought Fanchon, logically. to
the situation, to the tremendous
peril in which she knew her niece
had been placed. 1t was natural
enough. Natural, too, that she
would not ask Evelyn to talk much
OF the accident.
