MOllK ABOUT VITAMIN A
A most Impressive amount of ex
periment evidence concerning the Im
portance of vitamin A Is being ac
cumulated. This vitamin has now been shown
to have a bearing on many diverse
dlscasC(Ji mcludlng pyorrhea, child
bed Infections, stone formations, res
piratory diseases, xerophthalmia, a
serious disease of the eye, night blind
ness and more recently and this Is
very Important degenerative diseases
of the spinal cord In man and ani
mals. 1
Certain diseases of the eye and
nervous system, particularly night
blindness, have been known for many
centuries, and the ancient physicians
recognized that these dl senses had
some relation to dietary deficiencies.
Hippocrates, the ancient Greek phy
sician, recommended ox liver dipped
In honey as a cure for night blind
nefca. In Japan bird's liver was em
ployed and In Newfoundland codfish
liver. ' . :.
It Is not adduced from this, that
tho ancient physicians had any
knowledge of the existence of vita
min A, but all of the foregoing rem
edies are known to be rich In this
vitamin and undoubtedly proved ef
fective as a treatment.
In 'recent months some Interesting
facta on the relationship of vitamin
A deficiency to degenerative diseases
of the spinal cord have come to light.
It has been shown that puppies
fed on a rickets-producing and vita
min A-deficlent diet developed not
only rickets but also great muscular
weakness.
When these animals were fed vita
min D their rickets disappeared, but
muscular weakness and a certain
amount of muscular incoordination
remained.

George Pierce
Is Held in Jail
In Multnomah Co.
PORTLAND. Ore., Aug. 29 W -George
Pierce, 36. alleged "under
cover agent" working out of the dis
trict attorney's office here, was held
In the city Jail on an extortion
charge, accused of having demanded
and taken money from a Chinese, ar
rested in a lottery raid.
Fierce, who displayed a Umatilla
county deputy sheriff's badge, was
arrested In the place Friday . night
when the police raided the shop. Oh
Sing, alleged proprietor, was accused
of having lottery paraphernalia.
Police said Pierce admitted to them
later that he does not hold a sheriff's
commission here or In Umatilla coun
ty. The Chinese said Pierce prom
ised them protection and took money
from them on that basis. Pierce
charged that the Chinese had offered
him money but that he refused It.
Lotus Langley, district attorney,
asked by Pierce to assist In having
him released from Jail, was quoted
as having replied he would do noth
ing until be had determined whether
tho extortion charge was true.
FORMERLY IN LA GRANDE
Local authorities were interested In
the Pierce arrest In Portland, as a
George Pierce formerly . operated In
this locality as a prohibition agent
with the Btate forces.
Whether this is the Bame George
Pierce or not is unknown, but It Is
believed locally that It Is the same
man, as after leaving here he went
to Pendleton.
The St. Louis Art museum pos
sesses what is rated as one of the
finest collections of Chinese art in
this country.

BEGIN IIKltK TODAY
Clierry Dixon, IB and pretty,
(all. In love with Dan Phillip,,
newspnper reporter whom her
wealthy, arUtocratlo parents have
forbidden her to see. When
Cherry learns Dan's telephone
messages have been kept from her
she steals out of the house to meet
him. Her father discovers this
and threatens to send her to Cali
fornia. Cherry defies him and he
orders her to leave.
She goes to Dan, tells him what
has happened and asks him to
marry her. The ceremony Is per
formed that night by a Justice of
peace. Next day Cherry, who has
only the dress she Is wearing, goes
shopping. Bhe opens a charge ac
count, makes purchases that total
S03.70, and then Is ashamed to tell
Dan of her extravagance. Her
maid comes to see her next morn
lng and promises to send Cherry's
clothes. Cherry returns her pur
chases to the store. Bhe sets out '
to find an apartment but Is dis
couraged to find those she looks
at so expensive. While Bhe Is
waiting for Dan the telephone
rings.
NOW OO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XIV
Dan's voice came to her over the
wlro. "Hello, Cherry. Say. I don't
know when I'm going to be able to
get awny from here. You'd better go
out for dinner without waiting on
me. Thought I'd better toll you "
"Oh, Dan I" Cherry's disappoint
ment was obvlouB.
"I'm sorry, dear. Make It lust
as soon as I can. What kind of a
day did you have? Any luck with
those apartments? Did you find
anything you liked?"
Dan's tone was cheerful, casual.
Cherry, after her wearying, disap
pointing day was suddenly swept by
loneliness. She must see Dan. If
he couldn't coiito to her she would
go to him.
"Where ore you?" she asked
eagerly. "I don't mind about din
ner. I'm not hungry but it's lonely
here. Let me come and stay with
you until you finish your work."
"But you can't, Cherry!"
"Please I"
"I'm sorry, but It's Impossible.
It's simply well, It's Just out of
the question. I'll got there as soon
as I can, but don't wait for me. I
may be tied up for three or four
hours yet."
The whole day had gone wrong
for Cherry. She was weary and be
wildered and frightened by what
she had learned of the way living
costs can gobble money. Now for
Dan to disappoint her was tho last
strawl Suddenly Bhe was like a hurt
and petulant child.
"Why can't I come?" she domand
ed. "Why won't you let me? And I
don't see any reason why you should
havo to keep on working." It's al
most six o'clock "
"Cherry! Don't you understand?
I'm tied upon a story. A big one.
I can't tell you about It now, honey,
but this Is going to be real news
when It breaks. I've got to keep
on the Job "
"But whero are you?"
"Down at tho union station."
"Why, Dan, why couldn't I come
down there? I supposed It was somo
place a long way off! Listen, I
don't caro what you say, I'm, com
ing!". (Continued on Pago Five)
