was caused by the accumulation of
waste matter and the emetic and
purge were the surest way out Of the
difficulty, even the blood letting hav-
ing the same objective.
The experiments and final practice
of Prof. G. Guelpa of Paris were a
saner idea, the drastic effects Of saline
purging being aimed at the unloading
Of the body without the disagreeable
nausea that accompanies the emetic,
and the blood letting being avoided be-
cause the withdrawal of much blood
serum and of body lymph accom-
plished the same purpose with con-
servation of the life elements of the
blood, its cells.
So, through Guelpa's plan, we can
rapidly remove from the body its acid
laden fluids, without at the Same time
taking anything Of which the body
stands in need.
The rapid removal Of the body fluids
creates great thirst, which is met by
| the drinking of much unsweetened,
fresh fruit juice, thus restoring the
| lost blood volume, and at the same
time supplying much alkaline material,
instead OF the too great percentage of
acid, formerly carried in the blood
stream and the body lymph.
| II the body can establish frequent
diarrhoea by which the toxic fluids are
voided daily, then no vomiting occurs
for this purpose, but in the absence of
| this the body establishes these cyclic
vomiting periods. when much waste of
acid character is emitted.
The vomiting Of pregnancy is a case
in point, and instead of a necessary
penalty Of pregnancy, as is so generally
believed to be the case, this morning
nausea and vomiting are merely ma
lures attempt to clear the body Of
the mother of the waste materials that
are making the creation Of a perfect
foetus difficult or impossible.
To terminate, quickly and perma-
nently, this terrible handicap to the
raising Of family, it is only necessary
for the mother to purge as Guelpa
taught. for two or three or four days
in sequence, limiting the intake of
food to either nothing but water or to
fruit juices unsweetened.
This has been demonstrated so often
that 1t has come to be the fully ex-
pected thing, and never has it resulted
in the slightest harm, but, of course, to
make this recovery permanent it is
necessary to continue to keep the colon
clear of debris daily, and so to arrange
dietary habit that no further causes
Of body intoxication are included in
the habit, which means to live largely
on the vegetables, the raw vegetable
salads, the fresh fruits and milk or
buttermilk, with little Of the breads,
cereals, starches, sugars or the meats,
eggs, fish and cheese, those concen-
trated foods so generally overplayed
in the average diet; or, in other words,
to stop creating so much acid debris,
and start in to rebuild the depleted
alkaline reserve. without which the
body can neither keep itself clear OF
its own debris nor function properly
in any way. Nature attempts this
through cyclic vomiting.

thankful for that.

morrow" squeaked Nanny hopefully.
Danny shook bis head. He'll be
here, all right" squeaked he. He'll
be here every day for the rest Of the
Winter. Yes. sir, that is what he will
do. 1t is what he has done in the
past, and there is no reason to think
he will not do it again"
"If I really thought that, would
move this very night" declared Nanny.
"Good!" cried Danny. Let's start
for the cornf1eld right now"
Nothing doing" squeaked Nanny.
II said If thought so, and I don't
really think so. He may stay around
for a day or two, but I doubt If he
will stay longer than that. And If
he didn't stay, wouldn't feel foolish
if I had given up my home here and
gone way over to that cornfield to
start a new home?"
"I don't think So" declared Danny,
in his funny, squeaky voice. II think
it would be a sensible thing to do
anyway"
well I, don't, and that's that!"
snapped Nanny.
And that was all Danny could get
from her. She simply refused to talk
about the matter any more that night.
Not even when early the next morn
ing they discovered Roughleg back at
his post would she talk that matter
over, but Danny noticed that she spent
much time that day watching Rough
leg. Several times he spread those
greet broad wings of his, once or twice
to no purpose, but other times to
enable him to drop on an unsuspect-
ing Mouse.
That night. as soon as 1t was dark,
Nanny announced that she was ready.
Ready for what?" asked Danny.
"To start for that cornf1eld. hope
you know the way" replied Nanny.
"Do you mean you are ready to 60
over there to hve?" asked Danny in
his squeakiest voice, because he was
so excited.
II mean I have changed my mind" :"
snapped Nanny. "Whep do we start9"

N Mouse had lived all Summer
VI a short distance from lone
i elm tree on the Green Mead
ows and had found it much to
their liking. The grass was plentiful
and sweet, their home was well hid
den. they had successfully brought
up several families and sent the chill
dren out into the Great World, and
they had had no special worries
there. So Nanny was well content.
She was satisfied to go right on living
there. When Danny proposed that
they go over to the cornfield for the
Winter she fatty refused. She had
made up her mind to stay right there.
And then appeared lone watcher
in the top of the lone elm tree. 1t
was Roughleg the Hawk, down from
the North to spend the Winter. Nanny
and Danny knew only too well what
he was watching for from the top
of that tree. He was watching for
mice, and those wonderful eyes of his
were quite capable Of seeing a mouse
move even as far from that tree as
was their home. AS motionleSS as II
he were a part of the tree, he sat
until those keen eyes Of his saw a
mouse move somewhere in the grass,
or saw the grass move where mouse
was. An instant later he would be
hovering over that spot, and lucky
indeed would be the mouse that es-
capped.
Danny and Nanny knew him Of old.

The Debunker
BY JOHN HARVEY FURBAY, PHI. d.

ITULIUS CAESAR was a famous
Roman general, statesman, orator
and writer. His accounts OF the Gal
lie wars are widely read today. He
was five times consul and four times
dictator-but he was never Emperor.
If he had not been murdered by
Brutus and his friends he probably
would have become Emperor. The
Empire Of Rome was not founded till
81 BIC. and Julius Caesar was as
sassinated in A BIC. For several
centuries Rome had been a republic.

STARTS
RELIEF WORK

LURAY, Va, Feb. 27.-Federal
Emergency Relief headquarters
for Page county opened here yes
terday in a room Of the old school
building on Main Street. It's pur-
pose, according to members Of the
committee present at a meeting
over the weekend, is to assist in
carrying out the Administration
program.
The meeting was called hastily
after the unexpected arrival OF o
representative Of national head
quarters and Miss Harriet Tyne,
Of Staunton, State field worker.
The Federal worker expressed his
surprise that Page county had
made no application for relief,
and said it must be that they did
not need it, as Page and one other
county were the only two in the
State not having applied. When
told that Page county had 2,456
names on the unemployment list
with only a fraction Of them work
ing, he could not understand it.
Miss Tyne told the committee
that Page county'S quota was $10'-
900, Of which already half was no
longer available because no appli-
cation was made. The respon-
sibility for applying, she said, was
on the board of supervisors.
Those at the meeting were told
81 500 would be available for them
at once, and more if needed. Miss
Dorothy Smith, society girl Of
Luray, was appointed admins
traitor. She will be assisted in the
office by Miss Elizabeth Berry,
who has been a clerk in the I'M

Work Planning Committee
Seeks to Keep Those in
Greatest Need

Plans for dropping another
thousand Of the $4,000 Civil
Works employees in the District
this week will be worked out at a
meeting Of the work planning
committee of the local CWA to-
day.
Capt. Howard F. Clark, chair
man of the committee, said he
had received orders from the Of.
flee of Harry L. Hopkins, Federal
Civil Works Administrator, to
drop 1000 more workers this week,
thus reducing the local quota to
$4,000. -.
Further orders for reduction OF
the local CWA force to be made
during March are expected to be
sem out by Mr.. Hopkins today,
Captain Clark said. Demob1iza-
ton of the local CWA began a
week ago, when the District quota
was reduced from 1880 to $4,000.
Captain Clark and his commit
tee today will go over the various
local projects to determine where
to drop the 1000 who must go to-
morrow.
It is the plan Of the committee
to make the cuts where they will
hamper the work the least and at
the same time to drop first those
who have the least need Of the
work.

BUDGET FACES
HARD FIGHT IN
ARLINGTON
Increase in Tax Rate and
Prospect of More Raises
Causes Split

Adoption Of the budget of Ar
lington county, Va, for the fis-
cal year 193435, which calls for
establishment of q tax rate Of
$40 per 500 valuation, is eX-
pected to be opposed by many
civic and other organizations as
well as individuals, according to
reports current at Arlington
Courthouse today.
County Manager Roy s. Bra
den submitted to the county
board recommendations that
would carry a tax rate Of $2.35-
a 15-cent increase over the cur
rent year-the additional amount
to be applied toward school debt
service.
Second Raise Asked.
Then the board stepped in and
decided $4,000 must be raised
to aid in purchase of lands for
the proposed George washington
Memorial Parkway. They hiked
the proposed levy up an add1-
tional S cents, which, 1t Is esti-
mated, will bring in about $780,
900.
However, the money must be
raised by June / to match a
similar State amount that will
revert to the treasury if it is not
obtained at that date. The tax
money would not come in until
after July l.
Mr.. Braden said he hoped the
county would be able to raise its
share and added there were sew
eral plans advanced, but refused
to disclose them.
More Increases Seen.

would have to increase taxes fur
Their in the next few years to
