nized that it has been adopted into
proverbial use. We speak of putting
more ginger" into anything that
needs enlivening-the tempo of
music, for instance-and a remark
like that speech had lots of ginger"
means it was the reverse of dull!
The uses of ginger both as spice
and medicine can be traced back
to the early Chinese and Indians,
through them to the Greeks and Ro-
mans, and the ancient Britons. 1t
is mentioned in Sanskrit-that an
cient sacred language of India, known
to none but scholars-and it is also
referred to in the Talmud, which is
the body of Jewish civil and canoni-
Cal law.
The Greeks and Romans are
thought to have obtained ginger from
the Arab traders Of the East, who in
turn doubtless got it from India. It
must have reached England before the
Norman conquest, since reference to
1t is found in the old Anglo-Saxon
leech books OF the 11th century.

FEW comparative studies can be
more interesting to the man in
the street or the woman in the kitchen
than that concerning spice prices
throughout the centuries Back in
the 18th and 14th centuries, for ex-
ample, a pound of ginger cost as
much as whole sheep. A sheep
could then be bought for one and
sixpence, or, roughly, IS Of Uncle Sans
present-day cents. OF course, it must
be remembered that money had an
entirely different purchasing power.
Laborers earned no more than a few
pennies per day. Small wonder that
"the spices of Araby" were highly
priced and reserved for the tables OF
the rich and powerful.
1t is also interesting to know that
until after the time of the Tudors
ginger was favorite havoring for
meats. When 10-year-old Richard II
was crowned in 1877 many of the
meats that composed the lavish coro-
nation feast are known to have been
spiced with ginger.
Ginger has long held . prominent
place among homely remedies. It fig
ured largely in a recipe against the
dreaded plague which Henry VIII is
said to have sent to the Lord Mayor
of London. During the l7th CEN
tury it was credited with being q
cure-all and proionger Of life. To
serve such ambitious purposes it was
distilled in wine and mixed with vari-
GUS other spices and aromatic herbs.
Ginger is still one of the popular
homemade wines, and in by-gone
days it was part Of practically every
cordial" Up until a few genera
tions ago it was an established Gus
tom of tavern keepers to have ground
ginger on hand for splicing porter
This was kept in large tins from
which customers seasoned the bever-
age to taste, then stirred their drink
with a red-hot poker!

lum halted. quivered a moment at
the end of its arc-and started
on its opposite swing. The first quiv-
ers were seen when sunburn ceased
being amusing and returned to its
proper place in the scheme of things
Stacks appeared as another little
symptom OF changing trend; long
sleeved sweaters we're donned on
emerging from plunge; dark glasses
came hand in hand with common
sense. And the whim of fashion spon-
sored concealment rather than over
exposure.
THE return to cover" will, in all
probability, be as slow to catch on
in some sections as was its nudist
counterpart. But the trend is def
nitely established. Fashion maga-
zines, shops, advertisements and
manufacturers realize this fact, and
are meeting it on its own ground.
The "dressmaker suit" is among the
first signs; gay cottons, silks, satins,
almost any material, are used to fash
ion gay and becoming garments with
ripping skirts, and evening-gown
bodices. For the very, very young,
whose slim. godlike lines are fat
tered by it, there is still the maillot-
but even that is different, with an
elusive quality that makes it seem
less revealing, more feminine than
the maillot of last year. Thanks to
be depressed by the sight of middle
age stuffed into the garments of
youth, with no kindly fold or flare
to soften the damages wrought by
time. Soft fullness, fiattering skirts
and gracious fabrics will paint hap
pier picture on our beaches.
Washington shops are full of bath
ing and beach outfits that breathe
this new, beneficial restraint If you
are over 25-and below that if your
figure is not perfect-pass by the
maillots and the clinging knitted
"one-piecers." Leave them for the
truly young, and the really slim.
Don't kid yourself that suit like
theirs will make you look like them.
1t won't and how!
Choose soft, full model with as
much care as you would an evening
dress. See that the color fatters your
skin. as the lines flatter your figure.
Look more beautiful than ever on the
beach this year-conceal your bad
points, and, by doing so. rejoice in
the thought that you are not only
being lovely, but are marching. in
the front of the fashion parade!

a woman who has wrestled hopelessly
for 25 or 80 years with a grouchy and
cantankerous man to learn that the
answer to her problem is spinach and
bread pudding.
The only drawback to this alluring
theory OF appealing to a mans better
nature through his stomach instead of
his heart is that there might be a divi-
sion of opinion in the family circle as
to what constituted nonirritating foods
and it is conceivable that a husband
who was addicted to savory soups,
steaks and onions, things la this and
a Ia that, would not be soothed by a
dinner of herbs but would, on the con-
trary, fly into rage and raise heck
over it, and say things that would send

do next until his dying day And it is
the basis of the family fortune.
II this seems an exaggeration, con-
slider these few facts: What occasions
the first rift within the lutte with the
newlyweds? What starts their first
scrap? Isn't it when the bride sits her
bridegroom down to meal of dish
water coffee, soggy bread. overdone
meat and underdone vegetables? Who
are the happy and contented husbands?
Are they not those who sing their
wives corned beef hash and pies and
cakes in the market place?
Who are the men who turn joyously
toward home of an evening? Are they
not the ones who can sniff in their
imaginations the savory odors OF the
dinner of the things they like best,
cooked the way they like them, that
they know is awaiting them? Who
are the men who are as domestic as
the house cat and against whom no
siren can prevail? Are they not the
men who have been gorged with good
food until they are too lethargic to
move further than their easy chairs
at the fireside? And what is the one
thing Of which no man ever tires?
Isn't it eating? A man may lose his
youthful enthusiasm, his sentiment
talityi his desire to step out, his in
terest in most things in the world,
but he never loses his appetite, and
as long as he keeps that his wife has
sure thing to which to appeal.
All Of which goes to show that the
way husband treats his wife depends
a lot on how she feeds him.

How Hamilton Ron
u. S. Treasury

IRON brilliant career as =
l. leader in the American revo-
luton, Alexander Hamilton
plunged at once into the task OF
launching the new government
when Washington named him first
secretary of the treasury.
Hardly had he taken Office
when Congress referred to him
mass of staggering problems
bearing on the meager financing
of the new nation. Hamilton re-
Spondeo with succession of pa
pcrs ana a series Of administra-
tive acts that permanently marked
the conduct of his cabinet office.
He issued two important re-
ports on public credit, one up
holding the ideal of high ma
tional honor, and a second on
manufactures, urging their en-
enlargement through a system OF
bounties paid from surplus rev.
enues accruing from tariff. This
latter document has served ever
since as one of the great argu-
ments for the American protective
tariff policy.
Hamilton urged also the crea-
ton of a national bank and the
use of power by Congress to pre-
serve at all times the welfare
of the people" In his office,
meantime, he had established a
smoothly working financial set
up, creating such order and con-
fdence in the treasury depart
ment as to make it steady prop
for the whole structure Of the
country.
Hamilton is shown here on Z

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. s.
(UP)-An intensive drive to

Tennessee is being staged after
public health officials received

donation from the federal gov
eminent.
The general program provides
for distribution of drugs through
county boards of health and more
than half the money will be spent
in this phase of the campaign.
The campaign also will include
distribution of literature, motion

pamphlets, and talks by private
physicians before school audi
ences and civic groups.
DR.. w. C. Williams, state health

campaign would be "far less than

MONKEY BANDS
ARE AT LARGE
IN CALIFORNIA
Origin Is Unknown, But
Leader Is Large and
Powerful Simian

SAN DIEGO, Calf, Sept. s.
(UP)--Therc is much monkey
business in the back country Of
San Diego county these days as
rancherS tell strange tales Of
band Of simians which are run
ming wild in the vicinity of Jamul,
20 miles east.
Conflicting reports Of the rene
gadcs make it impossible to deter
mine their number, species Of size.
One thing is assured: there are
wild monkeys in San Diego coun-
ty, and Luke +. Pace, Jamul
ranchcr, has the hand Of full
grown female to prove it.
Pace shot the animal as she led
band of half-grown macaqucs
on a chicken raiding expedition in
PAGES hen coop.
SPECULATE ON ORIGIN
There is considerable spcclla-
ton AS to the bands origin. Mrs.
Belle J. Benchlcy, executive score
tary of the San Diego Geological
society. suggested they escaped
from thier owners and have prop
agated during the passing years.
Another report is that motion
picture company turned them
loose eight years ago after filming
picture in the vicinity Of Jamul.
Others contend they never were
domcsticated but wandered north
from Central American jungleS
years ago.
The leader, a big black fellow,
is the most elusive and cunning
Of the band. Many have reported
seeing it swinging from the limbs
of the giant oak trees in the late
evening, but at the sight Of ku-
mans, it scuttles away into the
deep canyons where it is lmpossi-
bic to trail the creature.
Farmers in the region argue
that the male is not a monkey but
an ape. and those who have
glimpsed him agree that he is OF
ncar-man size.
Hunters by the score have
sought the cvasivc colony. but
always have been thwartcd by
the iunglc-likc underground and
rough terrain which makes hunt
ing impossible. =,
So until "bring en- back alive
expedition succeeds in outwitting
the black leader and his band, the
chickens will continue to disap-
pear, cats. ranch tools and small
articles along with them, children
will run home fearful of the
"hairy men," and weird screaming
and chattering will reSound from
the tall oaks to awaken the good
people on Jamul on moonlit
nights.

SOUTHERN PRODUCTS

BANKHEAD'S GOAL

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Sept. 5.
UPl--Southcrn products, made
by southern producers from
southern raw materials, are the
solution to the south'S economic
problem, according to Senator
John II. Bankhcad, d., Ala.
Addressing a luncheon club
here, Bankhead, author Of the
Bankhcad cotton control act and
other measures designed to aid
southern agriculturiSts, said:
IF some concern from the
north or cast would come down
south and establish itself and in
sist on making southern products
with southern raw materials and
insist that they be sold in the
south, then one of the most Scri-
Gus problems would be out Of the

THE trouble with the whole

Bankhcad said the most serious
of the south's disadvantages is
lack of capital. The question is, "

Commenting on the National

senator said that these problems
