SEEK TO STOP SALE OF SPOILED FOODSTUFS The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture is endeavoring to interest offleiais of the United Siates Army and Navy in preventing the sale, to the public of Pennsylvania, of foodduffs unlit for human consumption. Under an opinion from the attorney general's department, the Bureau of Foods. Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, cannot prevent the armynavy from disposing of these spoiled stores, when they are sold as being unfit for food The Bureau, however, can prosecute wholesalers or retailers who offer the goods for sale and this has already been done in the case of number of Philadelphia dealers who offered for sale candy that was rancid and wormy. The government holds large stores of candy and other stuffs at Gray's Ferry and other points in Pennsylvania. This stuff has been held so long that much of it is unfit for food. The government, in selling it has plainly marked It as being unfit for human food, yet unscrupulous men have purchased the stuff and offered it to the public as being fit for food. The co iperation of the army and navy has been sought by Director Fount of the Bureau of Foods and an effort will be made to effectually prevent this stuff from reaching the pub-

Short Hours are; Best

Phil'deiphia—A man can produce more for his employer in an eighthour day than on a 12-hour schedule, earn as much money, do better work, be more cheerful, and have more time for recreation. These views which sound like a trade union declaration were expressed by Robert W. Wolf, vice president of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, in a speech in this city. Mr .West presented his conclusions on the basis of a 16-year record of results attained by substituting the eight hour day for the 12 hour system. particularly in the pulp industrybeginning in 1904 with the Fenimore ( mill of the Union Bag and Paper Com-

pany.

In changing to three shifts the workers were paid the same rates for eight hours they had oeen getting for 12. and in re.urn they had increased not only their total output but its uniform quality, said Mr. Wolf.

It aws left for obscure practitioner of London, who made its his business to cure diseases whoch had baffled med'eal science, and who accomplished his cures by correcting displacements of the spine, or what is known 'spinal adjustments." The prince had been pronounced incurable, but as his chance* to eventually become kin- of Spain dependthe removal of his affliction, it was decided, as a last resort, the new treatment. The London healer diagnosed the case and immediately dlsco’ ered what all the regular doctors had overlooked—that of the joints of the prince's backbone had been displaced, causing pressure on the great nerves to the ear and paralyzing them This displacement was corrected by the Chiropractic method of spinal adjustments and true to the diagnosis, the boy's hearing was restored and he soon responded to the efforts to teach him to

speak.

This case is a notable one and worthy of the space of a page feature Sunday newspaper, but it may not be so generally known as It should be that this same work is being p» -formed right In our midst, in Broken Bow, if you please, and people whom we know, as neighbors and friends, are being cured flictions, which, if written up and properly featured would occupy the space of a number of pages of Sunday papers for every Sunaay in the year. Dr. L. C. Hayes of this city. Who is well known by the profession as one of the foremost chlropractics of the Stati. is daily performing cures by the method of spinal adjustments. These cases range from ordinary flu patients, who are seeking quick relief, to the most complicated ailments to which the human system is heir to. Rheumatics, who have tfied everything and failed, stomach troubles, liver, heart, lungs and kidneys respond to this treatment of the spine, and the incurables, people who have been tuberculosis, goitre, deafness, epileptics, paralysis, asthma, the blond, and a long list of other diseases and ailments, from which the science of medicine ha* been unable to afford relief. As a last resort and with perhaps the last hope seemingly go"e, the patient finds his way to Dr. Hayes' office. A diagnosis is made and an examination of the spinal column tells the doctor Just what teh ailment Is, the cause, and the adjustment of the deplaced vertebrae which have caused a pressure on the nerves that lead from the brain to the affected parts of the body, removes the cause and a cure is effected in a very large percentage of

case*.

Fevers and sickness o fall ordinary kinds, as well as insom:.ia and nervous troubles, are quickly relieved and that bugbear of the present day. appendicitis, comes under the list of quick relief and permanent cure, from the chiropractor's method of spinal adjustments. The cure of a prince, from faraway Spain, of a hopeless ailment which blighted his life, and by a scientific treatment thin is in its infancy compai.d with the age old science of medicine, which failed to give relief, is heralded over the world as one of the miracle wonders of the age.

ITocrastination is certainly bent on the theft of time, not only yours and mine, but everybodle's. It all comes about by leaving things undone until we want to go somewhere, when there is a mad rush which could have been avoided if just bit of foresight had been used. Heated arguments in the bosom of the family, late trains, and that halfready felling that takes the joy out of life, could all have been avoided. When we get home from our summer vacations we know every weak spot in our baggage. We are familiar with its poor locks, inefficient straps, hte multiplicity of useless trays, the back-breaking weight of suitcases, cheap, but roomy; of broken trunk castors, dilapitated hat boxes, and all the rest of it that spells trouble We empty our traveling receptacles and send them downstairs or upstairs for the winter, and then forget, in the spring they are brought back for packing, and their weaknesses halfforgotten. stand forth again, and so does our temper. It is almost impossible to get a repair man for these things in a hurry, and our old worries begin. How much better is to have all the repairs made before storing the baggage, when all of the deficiencies fresh in our minds! Then we can rest easily and work expeditiously when next the commodities are needed. Keys should all be tagged. Trunks and bags should be marked, ad a list kept of what is stored in

them.

All bathing parapher.-.alia should be carefully washed and mended, to be ready when wanted. regular vacation stuff that changes but little from year to year should be cared for in the same way. and anything lacking should be listed for spring shopping days, insiead of being left until haste and cllstering heat make shopping an awful task. When men’s clothing needs pressing and repairing, why wait until the last of the week when everyone is rushed, and the work likely to be poorly done? Begin in time. Fresh collars, cuffs and shields are needi-d often in tailcredsuits, so don't wail until it is Lime to go out before replacing them, then madly tear around and stir up the entire family. Do it now !

One woman never thought about filling her lamps until it began to get dark, then she had to get a candle see how to do the work. Another woman never merdod small tears in until she had a rent “worth while." then she said she felt as if she hail "done something." The old story of not having time i answer friendly letters is threadbare. If we counted the time we waste we could have written reams Taxes should be placed on the individual's loss of time, and if they high enough to scare how we would begin economizing that which we now waste! It is astonishing how we all love to watch others work.

This same idea works all along the line of household endeavor and makes hard work out of misdirected tasks that should slip by without a ripple. It would be an eye-opener to many of us where we go behind the scenes of one of the monster modern theatre production during a pennormance, and see how every one has a task for which he is responsible, and nobody standing near to watch or prod.

! What is Wrong With the Color Scheme That people are physically and mentally affected by colors is a scientific fact recently under discussion in medical journals because of experiments in the use of colored lighting for the treatment of certain ailments. It is said, for example, that certain colors are just as irritating to the nerves of many people as is the sound of a saw being sharpened, according to the Ne wYork Herald The stimulating effect of a red flag on a bull is well known, but the fact that bright red handkerchiefs are used by some trainers to stimulate athletes, pecially long distance runners, has been much of a secret. The same line of experiments have shown that scarlet colorings have a beneficial effect on indilent children; that blue is magnetic, soothing and conducive to mental concentration: and violet in combination heloful in cases of insomnia, while headaches yield to mauve, violet anu green. Special exhibits demonstrating the ffects of color lighting were a feature of the annual electrical exposition opening in Grand Central Palace on October 6th. Here suggestions were given, such as the prospective effect . wild, raving husband of substituting a blue lampshade in the living i for the purple and orange shade, which has subconsciously driven him from home. When he becomes a quiet stay-at-home, the use of a combination of blue, mauve and medium red is likely to lead to a desire on his part to take wifey to the theatre, etc.

Life Saved By Massage of the Heart Never give up a case of apparent death under an an anaesthetic hopeless until massage of the heart and Its various accessories has been given fair trial. Such is the advice of the Lancet (London), in su- iming up article by Dr. Lionel Norbury on the subject of cardiac massage. Heart failure under anaesthetic is less common than it used to be. In 1911 276 such deaths were reported in Great Britain, but In 1917 and 1918 in all the military hospitals of the British Isles there were only 136. The method employed is to cut a hole either below the diaphragm, through the diaphragm or in the walls of the chest, insert the hand and gently massage the heart while artificial respiration is being performed, until the organ resumes its normal pulsatior Comparisons “You know.” said the woman whoso motor car had run down a man, "you must have been walking very carelessly.
