The bootlegger Is product Of mod
ern times. He originated in the
United States, but he has q way Of
appearing in almost any country
where people want something which
Is prohibited by law. His latest ap-
pearance is In Germany: and there,
Of all things, he Is peddling-grand-
mothers.
It happens like this: In Nazi Ger
many q man hardly can hope to get
q Job unless he can prove that he has
'untainted Aryan BLOOD way back to
the third generation. Consequently
there is q huge demand for family
records to prove that ones grandpar-
ents were suitably Nordic.
A lot Of people aren't eligible for
such document: others are eligible
enough, but have no papers to prove
It. So there IS q brisk business in
forged papers. For price, the Ger
man bootlegger will help you prove
that your blood Is strictly German
gentle for three generations back.
OF all forms Of bootlegging the
world has seen, this surely is one Of
the oldest.

Governor LANCER tells President
Roosevelt that many North Dakota
farmers are In the mood to blow up
bridges to prevent farm supplies from
reaching the cities. Most North Da-
kota readers will receive this news
as startling and as indicating q de-
gree Of agitation among farmers
which no one had hitherto suspected.
II 1t IS true, then the embattled
farmers have strangely kept the facts
hidden from all of us. Talking with
men who are In direct contact with
farmers over q wide area every day,
We get the information that farmers
In Barnes county are probably now
less agitated than for long time
past. Most Of them, say our inform
ants, are persuaded that the govern
ment Is making an honest attempt
to help the farm situation, so they
are willing to wait and see what
comes Of 1t.
Ever since we have been in North
Dakota there have been farmers who
have been willing to express ideas
indicative Of violence. even when
farm prices were good and money
plentiful. But the number Of such
was extremely small as compared
With the whole group. There Is NO
question but what some farmers are
red and would resort to violence. But

larger groups to the latter body and

The Grange is definitely against
the strike and picketing tactics, does
not recognize the Holiday associa-
ton.
The Farm Bureau. second In size

titude but Is more vigorous about 1t.

officials have aided In the agitation.
but that Is about as far as It has
gone.
As 1t stands, therefore, the pres
ent farm strike is the child OF very
small minority Of the nations organ
lied farmers. Like an obstreperous
and badly-behaved boy, 1t is demand
ing the right to sit in the front seat
and drive the car without having
invested anything In the machine or
shown any aptitude for running 1t.
That. on the basis Of present in
dications, is why the farm strike is
proving abortive in many districts.
It explains why, II worst comes to
worst, the strike will be broken very
quickly by other farmers.
Iowa legislators told Governor Her
ring that SO per cent Of the farmers
around Sioux City are opposed to the
strike ana to the tactics being used
to sustain 1t. They may be wrong
as to the percentage but they could
hardly err as to the majority.
These are the circumstances which
cast doubt upon both the advisability
and the ultimate success Of the farm
strike.

Ethical Brewers

A code OF ethics has been drawn up
for the brewers Of the country; and
It contains . few paragraphs that
make interesting reading.
One provides that brewers will not
directly or indirectly sell beer to un-
licensed outlets or to people who are
In any way evading local, state or
national laws governing the retailing
Of beer.
Another provides that no officer or
director Of brewery may have any
connection. either as partner, officer
or stakeholder, In . place engaged in
the retailing Of beer.
Here are two exceedingly sensible
provisions. II the brewers had ad-
hered to them strictly In the days be-
fore 1920, there would have been less
reason for the experiment with q ma

A TYPICAL BIT OF NERVOUS
IMPOSITION

School teacher aged 81 had been IN
poor health for several years. She had
many nervous" symptoms. She was
frail, easily tired, woke up mornings
unrefreshed, ate we'll enough but
nevertheless lost weight and had
"flushes."
She went to her family physician,
who made perfunctory examination
and told her she had slight anemia
and was nervous" He kept her TAX
ing iron tonics and the like for three
years, and the patient lost ground.
Finally she went to another physt-
clan, who told her she was merely OF
nervous temperament and had become
tired out from the strain Of teaching
and needed q rest. She was accom-
panied by q friend, who pricked up
her ears at this and said to the ply
stefan: "You say she Is nervous. What
we wish to know is what Is really
wrong with her."
Don't 60 away, brethren. This IS
going to be good lesson in health Tor
doctors.
No sooner had the brazen young
woman uttered this remark than the
physician turned to her with dis
dainful smile and wittily observed:
"You have been reading DR.. Brady.
haven't your"
Thanks for the ad, my dear quack.
After that the physician disregard
ed the patients friend and quickly
sent the patient on her way still de-
ceived.
The friend who had been 50 thor
oughly squelched by the doctor now
brought pressure to bear and per-
suaded the poor teacher to go and see
q doctor who had shown his diagnos-
tic ability in another case the young
woman knew about. This doctor
hazarded no opinion until he had car
riedabut complete examination. Then
he informed the teacher that she had
tuberculosis and had undoubtedly had
1t for two years.
Brethren, is there any need to point
q moral?
OF course it takes some courage for
q doctor to inform a patient he doesn't
know as yet what the trouble Is. Pa
tients Of limited intelligence are quite
likely to quit cold and 60 to some doc
tor who can and will tell 'em what 1t
is at the first sight, and there are
plenty Of such humbugs practicing
medicine and in good standing 50 far
as the public Is aware. But this Is q
risk the physician has got to take II
he has honorable ambition. II his OBJ
ject is to make money perhaps he can
achieve 1t better by catering to the
ignorant In this matter.
Likewise it takes some courage for
a doctor to inform nervous"
"anemic" or tired out" patient that
the actual trouble is tuberculosis.
There is likely to be some such char.
latan as the one who made the wise
crack about reading Brady. who win
persist in assuring the family that the
notion of tuberculosis is all bosh-
until something serious happens to
settle the argument.
I should like to warn Ill young per.
sons who may be anemic, tired out,
nervous" and who have lost weight
and strength, to beware Of drifting
along on the assumption that the
trouble = 20 simple. or ct least to take
no such attitude until . patus-taking
| physician has made st least one exam.
