Find Women Detectives
Are Failure In London

London.-After six months trial,
women detectives have been found
unsuccessful in the metropolitan
police force.
The women, however. are taking
1t stoically, the Policewoman's Re
view commenting:
The average woman Is by nature
entirely opposed to detective work.
Moreover. many women who wish
TO qualify as detectives are too
certain of their own personal ca
pacity and are often unwilling to
admit the absolute necessity OF
training as an aid TO their instinct"

MRS. WILLIAMS GAINS RELIEF FROM
RHEUMATIC PAINS
Or. w. {. Fitch Explains why
Natural Mineral Water Often
Helpful In Chronic Ailments

Mrs. II. Williams, 10 Princeton
Street, Clifton, New Jersey, writes
Il suffered very badly with rheuma-
tism but after taking Crazy Water
Crystals | am different person. They
are wonderful. | would not be without
them, they did me so much good" !"
Why is It that fine natural min
eral water, made at home from Crazy
Water Crystals has benefited SO
many thousands suffering from "rheu-
matte" pains and other chronic all
ments
DR.. w. E. Fitch, noted medical
authority on mineral water, in a re-
cent radio talk over the National
Broadcasting System stated:
For many years, II has been mys-
terry even to the medical world just
how natural mineral waters produced
the amazing results that have made
them so popular. Scientific and medi-
cal discoveries and research in the
last few years, however, are penetrat-
ing these secrets OF Nature, so that
now medical men have a new under
standing Of the reasons for the power
of natural mineral water to relieve
suffering. One of these reasons is
what is known as secondary mineral
ization, by which is meant that not
only the predcninating chemical con-
stituents of mineral water are of
aid but also what are known as the
secondary minerals-those present in
infnitesinal quantities. The very fact
of their being present in this way
causes them to have a much more
powerful systemic effect than if they
were there in larger quantities. Let
me recommend wholeheartedly to suf-
ferers from chronic diseases the use
of a suitable natural mineral water
as a powerful adjuvant."

ChAracteristics of Birds

Birds are Ike people. says a
writer In the Kansas City Star.
They have characteristics OF their
own. Each tree-nesting bird has
its favorite tree. The waxwing
loves the cedar; the crossbill. the
pine; the flicker. the chestnut or the
apple In the East, the cottonwood
In the West; the oriole loves the
elm; and the little yellow warbler,
the gooseberry bush or the willow.
The robin comes the nearest TO be-
ing lust folks" Always one OF
the first birds TO arrive In the
spring, he remains all summer. and
is one OF the last 10 depart at the
approach OF winter When our an
cestors. the Pilgrim Fathers, stepped
from the Mayfiower. the first bird
they saw they called the robin.
That was probably the limit Of the
Pilgrim Fathers bird lore.

Dishpan Renectors

The canyon OF the Colorado about
the Hoover dam Is brilliantly llluml-
mated at night by thousands of elee-
trio lights which are ably backed up
by great brigade OF dishpans. 1t
appears that these lamps are subject
ed to n variety Of hard experiences
and to keep them supplied with re-
fiectors which are ordinarily made
use of FOR this purpose would be "A
very expensive proposition by reason
OF the frequent breakage. A bright
new dIshpan was experimental with
for this service and the results were
found to be so satisfactory that they
were adopted all over the site. Ten
thousand dishpans were ordered for
this purpose.

Unfortunately there Is no reason
TO believe that the great bulk OF the
population Is prepared and willing to

problems OF the day. There Is still
IllIteracy. which Is not being de-

clouds OF prejudice continue to inter

OF the disposition to avoid problems
