MEETING ADJOURNED TO THE
HAW HAW CORNER

This is indeed a rare summer day
A number of bowlers throwing their
weight about the green. So instead
of holding our regular school session
today, children, we are going to adj
iourn to the haw haW corner where a
guest instructor will entertain you fol
a while. Now listen:
Dear Doctor:
When the discussion on skin
absorption came up previously
fully intended writing,-now at
this revival of the topic cannot
resist.
I had always understood that
the skin did not absorb anything
until a beauty parlor expert Mote

sageS and their customers a shade
more credulous) told me to make
up a mixture of one-third castor
oil. one-third olive oil and one
third so-and-SO'S mango cure as a
scalp treatment for dandruff. This
I did and after rubbing it on my
head I noticed a violent purga-
ton.
This I ascribed to something I
had eaten. But later when again
saw the beauty parlor expert I
commented on the mixture as a
dandruff remedy, and she warned
me that too much of it rubbed on
the head would cause purgation.
Then told her of my experience
and she laughingly said it is a
pleasant way to take castor oil.
have passed the suggestion on
to several friends (among them
two trained nurses, and each of
them had the same impression,
that the skin will not absorb any
thing. However, after one of two
applications to their scalps they
all agreed it could be nothing but
the castor oil so absorbed.

''Sell Now" Not 'Buy Now"
Duluth Heraldj

DR.. julius Klein, assistant secretary
of commerce, uttered these words of
wisdom in a recent radio address:
It is up to American distributors
to execute a sell now" campaign
and not wait for their customers
to get into buy now" frame of
mind.
Not only is that true, but in every
city there are enterprising merchants
who are proving that 1t Is true by ap-
plying it.
There are also in every city mer-
chants who sit and wait for business
to come back.
Can there be any doubt about which
type Of merchant is most likely to
survive this trying time7
It isn't mere theory that the aer-
chant who goes out after business will
get 1t. Merchants ARE going out
after business, and they ARE getting It,
There are some facts about the
present situation which some people
who should know better seem to have
forgotten.
One Of them is that at least five
sixths Of the earners are still at work
and still earning. Though almost all
Of them have had their incomes Pc
duced, few of them have been cut
more than the percentage Of the re-
duction in the cost Of living. SO that
the incomes Of five-sixths Of the earn
ers. measured In buying power. are
still unimpaired.
II many Of them hesitate to buy,
that Is product Of the current trend
Of thought. II they are induced to
buy by bargains. attractively set forth,
they can buy and they will buy. In
deed, in response to many q sincere
and persuasive advertising appeal,
they ARE buying.
The wise merchants are those who
realize these facts and who realize
that this Is the last Of all possible
times when 1t Is safe to relax in tn
eenuity and enterprise. Indeed, it is
. time Of Ill times when ingenuity
and enterprise are most needed and
ere most profitable.

The Lausanne Agreement

It was cheering news which came
from the session Of European powers
at Lausanne. The new agreement on
debts and reparations will make It
possible for business to thrive again
in Europe and 1t appears that some
of the political bars were torn down
as each nation conceded something
toward . solution Of the common
crisis.
From the American standpoint,
however, the agreement will not be
received with unmitigated pleasure.
The reason for this is the provision
in the new pact which makes 1t some.

This should not be the case and, in

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Calcium for Collie

Some time ago you described dis
covery of some medical scientists that
collie could be quickly relieved by the
injection of some calcium compound
into the veins. Would you be good
enough to give us the reference to
this?-(J. w. Coz
Answer-Drs. Bauer, Salter and
Aub, Boston, found that the very
slow injection into vein of 20 &C. of
scribe per cent solution of calcium
chloride promptly relieves the severe
pain of collie, be it lead collie or collie
from gallstones or renal collie. They
caution that not more than 2 &C. of

The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1932-07-11

In some of our older textbooks we
find the bald assertion that castor oil
will sometimes have a purgative &C
ton when rubbed on the abdomen"
of young children. But these ancient
medical tones are stuffed with a lot
of hooey. That's why medical or doc
tor books published more than 10
years ago are dangerous for the un-
sophisticated layman to delve in, and
misleading even for the trained med
ical reader.
Among old-fashioned nurses the
conviction still prevails that feeble

olive oil (sweet OLD rubbed on the in

is sheer absurdity to imagine the
baby can be nourished through the
skin. The advantage the feeble in

Hoover VS.. Garner

It begins to appear that the con-
troversy between President Hoover
and Speaker Garner over the relief
bill will become a major issue in the
coming presidential election and both
men appear content to have it SO.
The basis for the disagreement is
simple enough. Garner asserts that
his stand is one based on principle.
Hoover contends that his is the only
practicable method of making the
same principle effective. Both men
claim to be seeking the same thing,
which is easier credit and improved
business for the country.
They are agreed that further gov
ernmental efforts to extend relief to
the country can best be accomplished
by broadening the functions and in
creasing the capital of the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation, the
two-billion dollar baby born at the be-
ginning of the present congressional
session. They are agreed as to how
much the capital should be expanded.
The question of how the Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corporation shall go
about the business of relief is the
sticking point.
When this lusty infant was brought
into being. the law specified to whom
it should loan money. Briefly, the list
includes banks, railroads, insurance
companies and other similar institu-
tons Hoover would stick to those
limitations in handling the additional
two billion dollars now in prospect.
He contends that this is the only
practicable way and that, by benefit
ing these institutions, the people gen.
orally are aided.
Garner contends that this list con-
stitutes a selected clientele which the
president is willing to help to the eX-
clusion of individuals and of other
business. He wants the law govern
ing the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration revised to permit loans to
any person or firm offering adequate
security. AS precedent, he cites the
War Finance Corporation, which OPP
Grated under the Wilson administra-
ton and which was authorized to loan
money where it saw fit.
The Hoover argument is that, by
bolstering major business enterprises,
the credit and financial structure of
the nation is strengthened to the
benefit of all.
Garner argues that relief, applied
at the top, doesn't trickle through to
the lower strata; that many sound
businesses and individuals with ade-
quate security cannot now borrow
money because the credit stringency
continues undated. He would in
clude minor with major business in
distributing benefits under the bill,
contending that the money, after all,
is the peoples money, and that the
people should share directly in the
benefits.
1t is a real argument and one on
which neither man seems disposed to
yield, although the president can have
his way by vetoing the bill and fore
ing congress to write a new one.
The final decision, however, will be
deferred until November when a jury
of some 100000 persons will report
its findings on this and numerous
other issues via the ballot box.
