In spile of Ihis fact, we eoiistant ly observe th? temleiiey to make distinctions, on purely siiperf ieial (.'rounds, and render moral judg ments, on the basis of class, hank deposits, race and what not. A recent development in BiiK'land emphasizes, the point. Only u short lime api Kutrland had a (jeneral elccti somewhat similar to .ur presidential contest. There were three main parties, Liberals, Conservatives and Labor, and the Labor party like the present Ln Follette party, made its principal campaign on the issue that the only hope for thi average man, the only iii public life, was to place Ihc Labor party in power. Well the Labor parly won, and Hamsay Maedonald who had a poor war record hut an excellent record for devotion to the under It.jr and the virtuous poor, was named Premier. Now observe what transpired. A few months after Mr. Maetlon lid's election, Sir Alexander (I'rant a wealthy business man of Scot laud was awarded a baronetcy liy the Labor Premier. Less than four months Inter it developed that the landed aristocracy and the social clete, had been presented with $150, li'Kl in slock in Ihc firm of McVitie and Price, his property for life. '.he donor licing none other than ('rant. There heint; no election on in Kntrland, there is comparitivcly lit tle excil nt caused by this somewhat surprising procedure. But when the politicians unlimhcr again, KiiRlnnd will be treated to a performance not unlike Ihc recent Dauf,'hcrty-Fall-Doheny melodrama. All of which only noes to show possession of any class, any sex, or human nature. There are crooks in all parlies are splendid men in All ;'so in polities, as in social or business life the only safe rule is to consider absolutely nothing but the character of the individual, regardless of whether lie comes from or to what party, QUILL Tint luippk'st people art' those A man isn't linked until lie begins to complain fibout the rules.

If the Government can't make mMvc itself popular with silver men: RipplingRhijmoS' SURPLUS THIS WORLD is amply stocked with woe, so don't increase its store; if you spread sorrow as you go, pray do that stunt no more. We spread fierce stories in the mart ns we pur sue our way, and they distress some neighbor's heart, and spoil Jlis happy day. Elijah's mantle we assume, our forecasts darkly run; with prophecies of jrrief and yloom we spoil the people's fun. We talk all day of grievous pains, of aches in knees and shins; and men who hear our mournful strains east off their cheer ful iirins. ('ontai-'iotis is the brooding frown that we are prone to wear; one crouch will ipieer a happy town and fill its streets with care. One mournful wiht witlitearwet face, and hair and pirmciits torn, will sow to salt the market place and make ils people mourn. In many homes there is no sound of honest, whole some mirth, because Tired Father sits around ind scowls for all he's worth. In countless stores there is no trace of pep aiuoni: the clerks, because the boss's fro.eii face has chilled the whole blamed works.

To tho Editor: In your Issue of the 27th liiRtant, is an iirtlclo hontloti: "Shale Hyndlrate in County a I.IUkIouh One." AVhethor the writer was cratl- fyinu his iimllco or not, his effort reads like It, and is untrue Innsmueh as Its language is altogether mislead ing to tho prejudice of this company. it is truo that as first Htarted here It was known and designated in a rrust Indenture," a "The Ilartmnn Syndlcnto of tho Pacific Coast." and was planned along tho lines of what la known all over tho country as a 'Massachusetts Common Iaw Trust," and is supported by the courts In many states and In many instances lias been supported by tho supreme court of the rutted States. This Trust Indenture was drawn in Los Angeles and was filed with tho county clerk of this county, aftor Mr. Hartman had found that there wero rich shale beds in this cuunty and slate, and an appli cation was made to the corporation commissioner for a permit to operate under It. This wiut denied by tho corporation commissioner, ho con tending that it was In violatiun of the State Act of 1917. A correspondence of considerable length and ninny personal Interviews with tho commissioner, the state bank superintendent nnd the attorney gen eral followed, which finally, resulted in a friendly agreement with the at torney genoral, by .-which, ho was to commence an action ngalnst the Hart- man Syndicate, raising simply tho question of Inwv as to whether wo wero violating tho laws of tho state; wo both agreeing that tho question should be settled hy our supremo court. It was finally agreed between 1 mo und Attorney General Van Winkle, iB therefore a healthful gain. Her that he should commence the action, j reduction has been accomplished with charging that wo wero operating in, a coincident improvement in her phy vlolation of tho law of 'Oregon and slcal well being. That Is always tho stato wherein, and I agrocd that If no case, if the reduction regimen is at all question of fact wore raised, only tho question of law. (the fact, of course that wo wero oporatlng under Hiiid Trust Indenture, I would not deny,) I would demur and the one who should bo defeated in tho circuit court would appeal; and thus got tho question to the supremo court. Tho suit was wholly a friendly one, to socure a con struction of our siipreme court on a now law that had not yet been tested out. The only question which was raisod was whether our operations wore in violation of tho law. The question came up on my demurrer, was argued before Judge Thomas and by him tho demurrer was overruled. This loft the matter for us to appeal. We had oxpoctod to carry tho case to the supremo court of the United States If noceasary- At this point tho attorney general notified us that all of our operations, In selling shares under our indenture, would have to stop until a final determination of the enso was had In tho highest court appealed to. This presented a new dilemma. If wo hnd to go to itho Unltod States supremo court, it might bo years be fore tho matter would be settled thero nnd In tho meantime our extensive equipment would go to the junk pile through non-use; our shareholders would bo scattered and discouraged and tho inevitable result would be a wreck of the enterprise. At this Junc ture wo ndopted tho only course open to us; which was to Incorporate under the laws of Oregon and abandon our Common Law plan. Again the attorney general, desir our not to wreck a proposition which had for its purposo the development of what appeared to be a great and valuable resource of our state, finally agreed that if wo Incorporated under the corporation commissioner and abandoned further Operation under our Trust Indenture, and confess a judgment, he would make it a nomi nal one of two. or three hundred dol lars. This we consented to and pro ceeded to the work of Incorporation. The several extensions of time your correspondent cites was nothing un usual in court, but tho statement of them would be misconstrued by the ordlnnrv reader to the prejudice of tlio company. C. It.

Well, it appears f.iat an lllinol:i woman believed her and followed in the footsteps of Mrs. Jack Kpratt. The llllno'.s woman now broadcasts her story and you may ll-ton In on tt if you like: Dear sir: I have been read ing your articles with great interest for several years, but didn't "come down to enrlh" a bout m y o w n weight until I read tho flr.U extract you printed from Mrs. Jack Spra,tt's" letters in which she said she had Inst seven pounds the first week. If sho could do it. J could, and so I stnrte'd. Tho first two days were awful, but after that It has been no effort at all. Five years ago when I was married I weighed 118. After my first baby came I began to gain nnd latterly I have reduced to 127 pounds. How much farther do I need to go? 1 am V4 years old and 05 Inches tall. I feel better now than 1 have felt since I left college. The last summer has been a pleasure, anil how 1 have dreaded tho hot weather before. Altho my henlth has always been good, 1 did havo quite a bit of trouble with vari cose voiris, and now theseh:ive almost entirely dipappeared. ljist. hut not least, altho you prob ably will not think much of this. I havo had my hair bobbed! And my husband hns fallen" all over Again. Friends just stop and stare, How did you do it?" "I never saw nny- thing like it" nnd "I guess I 11 havo to try that," I hear on every side. Am I happy ? So much so I just have to write and thank you, Dr. Brady, nnd also "Mrs. Jack Spratt" for ono of the best things that has ever happened tp me tho regaining of my long lost youth, for such I feel it is. Very sincerely. (Mrs. M E H.) I suppose Mrs. M. E. II.. like "Mrs. Jack Spratt." attained her present stato of happiness via tho Karell route, or rather the Karell system with supplementary trimmings by lirady. Karell was a good doctor, so I believe he would approve of the trimmings which I added to meet present conditions. "Mrs. Jack Spruit," an occasional reader, n fat one tit any rate, may re call, dwelt on backbone she proved that a proposition I had ventured to mako was false. She proved tliat a fat woman may have a backbone. after nil. All right, I was in error about that. And I am glad to have Mrs. if. E. II. corroborate "Mrs. Jack Spratt." Only Mrs. M. E. H. wasn't a .fat woman to begin with. A woman not over 10 per cent too henvy for her height isn't fat. Vet Mrs. M. E. 11. was headed that way and her recovery advisable.

C.eneral health Is good except occasional attacks of indi gestion and chronic dyspepsia. (D. Jf) Answer. That's' two bad guesses, best two- out of throe, so I would nd vlso you to acknowledge to yourself that your health Is Impaired and con sult a physician about your trouble. Xo I'w Saying So I huve been doctoring with a doctor who said I had Indigestion. Now you say thero is no such thing. Will you kindly advise mo then? (Mrs. R. M. U) ' Answer Yes, I say so In every com bination of words I can devise, but it's no use. I udvise you to read and heed tho answer given to D. J. above. Perhaps I ought to specify a compe tent physician. Ktarcll Into Dextrin In an article about tho "Costive Infant" you stated: "Boiling converts the starch in oatmeal to dextrin." Is that correct? Does mere boiling con vert starch? An authority on this subject will be appreciated by yours truly. (VV. O. C.) Answer Prolonged boiling, accord ing to Wllthnus. . converts soluble starch Into dextrlns, maltose and fin ally glucose. This process is acceler ated by boiling with dilute mineral acltls.. Dry heat, such as toasting. causes starch granules to burst with the formation of dextrin. Thnt's why toast, if the bread is made crisp all thru, is more soluble and therefore more readily digested by an invalid. Oatmeal water or cruel or other cer eal water or gruels should bo boiled for hours for very young infants, in der to convert much of tho starch into Bolublc dextrin. This rule does not apply to tho feeding of older chil dren or adults, for In all except very yountf infants the capacity to digest starch is well developed. Often, in deed, it is better that oatmeal be cooked only a few minutes for adults, with a view to leaving considerable unchanged starch to reach the intes tine and undergo tho wholesome or desirable lactic fermentation there. 1 r Poems That Live "Vro Hut My Spirit IihimhI rmn tho 'Air' Were but my spirit, lousod uton iho air !
