THIS JTHJSNttX TU Aliiij
DKHR IIl'XTINli is imiloiilileilly one of tin- uliief spurtiim
attractions of Oie-.ni. but ii the pnictice of killinsr hiiniiui
licinjrs instead of (leer is not cni-milcd, an aroused pulilie opin
ion will step in and put a stop to the sport entirely.
The ehief cause of this deplorable situation is inexperience
on i lie part of the I ter and an unrestrained frenzy to kill.
The two traits usually ?o together.
There appears to he no practical way to restrict lmnt!n:
licenses to those individuals who are ipialifieil, by experience
ami temperament, to use them; hut vc believe the various or
ganizations of sportsmen could do something toward cliinnal
insf the evil by a cmiipaitiii of I'diication.
This educational camjiain should be directed toward re
straining' the killing instinct on the part of the hunters, par
ticularly the younger and less experienced ones.
It is this instinct which, uncontrolled, soon rises to the plane
of an emotional frenzy, which is responsible for nine out of ten
of the tragedies which mar the sporting record of this state
during every deer hunt in"; season.
I'lidcr the spell of the mania, notliiiii.' in the woods l!at
moves, whether a stray horse or cow. or a fanner hiking across
country, is safe. The hinder is so concentrated upon killing; a
buck that he shools first and inveslimiles the situation Yrc
ipicnlly with the aid of the coroner afterwards.
If the hunter could be shown, before he starts out, thai this
frenzy to kill is not only a daii!.'er to the spur! and his fellow
citizens but In himself, there would be an excellent chance of
makiiiL' the woods at least reasonably safe for the liniilin- of
wild eame.
Toward this end it nii'jht be well to have each huntinr li
cense include a pamphlet on instructions to hunters, with orders
from the proper official that it be read before any hunting is
done.
Laws can't solve the problem. (Inly what is ir. 1 he mind of
the hunter can.

' KNIH KANX'i: IX llANCIN'C
Karly in the summer I wasted
an hour one afternoon watching n
''marathon dance." Not only That,
hut I squandered something like
$l.tiO for admittance to the diuw.
Or rather, my
newspaper friend
paid for the tick
cms for certainly
1 would never di
vert y nieklp into
nnysufh channel
myself.
It was the most
awful bore.
There were six or
seven couples In
the race. With ihe exception of
one couple, they jusi ;miheil ahout
the flour in a slow walk or stop
pd here and there to visit, of
course "dancini" all the time, that
is. slowly shifiim; weight from om
b'Z to the other as they talked. I
The one except iona I couple now
and then actually danced a few i
steps. It seemed foolish of them.;
bu: presently we saw there wai
method in their madness, for th
promoter of the :iff:nr would an
nounce through the loud speaker
that a "donation" of S.I or SH
had been made to this plucky
couple, and an attendant would
walk out find hand ihe money to
the couple. It 'seemed all cut and
dried, though of course I don't
know whether the "donations" i
were genuine or just a scheme to ;
keep ihe dancers at it a while!
longer. There must have been ;
Si', iiini "house' even at this dull;
part of the day. The so-called
dancers kepi up their strolling for;
4.". minutes. Then their "train-:
ers" or nurses fir other friends car-;
l ied thorn to rest rooms, where ;
they i-emair cd 1 a minutes, then
another 4i-rninuie walk around, j
Thto schedule they 1;.-M up, some
of them, for a week or longer. t
I have forgotten now whether
the thing Was stopped hy the all-:
thoriti-s or whether a
couide outlasted all th
won the prize.
Anyway, the thing
last one
rest and
de-
grading spectacle, and whether it
entailed any serious injury to the
health of the contestants or not.
it is sad to think that our people
will take such tawdry exhibitions
seriously, at least seriously enough
to milk" the yame worth while for.
the promoters. As a sort of salve,
to pu'dic indignation, the promot-
ers usually have a "doctor" in at
tendance ami a nurse or two. Some J
of the physicians who are. willing j
to accept such employment have1
attempted to show that the maru-.
thon dance is comparatively harm-j
less fn the apprei-iahle effects on j
the kidneys, on the heart, etc. j
though we have no criterion f.u-.
such views. Anyway. wha,t of it ? j
The t hing is pn proper race or .
let of endurfltice. It is purely and
simply a commercial exploitation ;
of the innocence and ambition and!
greed of a handful of idle young i
men and women. It belongs in t lie
same cntegorv with fool stunt fly-!
ing and other nitwit daredevil;
speetach-s favored by the rabble
at county fairs or in badly man-,
aged public recreation parks. I
If a team, or an individual, were
given six hours rest in one stretch,
and then allowed to walk about,
teeter on their feet, or even dance,
occasion. illy, the other IS hours, j
that migtu resemble n race or an j
endurance test. Ihit this ticket
selling scheme of dragging the eon- '
teslant out every hour of the IN
amounts to a mere trial of the;
victim's ability to dn without shen. '
Well governed cities are riuhtlyj

who promote the affairs should
go hack- to the race tracks or the
card lahles where their talents are
in demand.
QITNTIOXK AND AXSWKHS !
Chalk Is l ine.
On your suggestion t have been j
using prepared chalk, taking or!
I grains two or three times a .
day. for acid stomach and gas.
II has done me more- i:ood than
any other reniedv i have ever1
tried, and I have had this trout. lej
f-ince pirlhood. I get what is la-
holed "Precipitated ehalk. 1". S ,
IV" Is that all Hght? If I con-;
Unue taking this will it thin my;
blood or harm me otherwise? '
Mr.-. T. V.
Answer. Prepared ehalk Is
chemically calcium carbonate. Pre
cipitated chalk is probably the ,
purest preparation. It is harm -;
less, nnd has no effect on the ;
blood. That Is one reason why

it is preferable to soda or other
alkalih commonly used to neutral

doe.s not ulkulinize the blood as
soda does.
Who Said ( hilil .Minded.'
I'lim years old. fir. inches tall,
and weigh 1 4 pounds. Have been
taking 1 lemon, squeezing it in 1
teaspoonful of salt, takisig this,
and then swallowing l gins-, of
water afterward, for nine days, to
reduce. lint someone said this
would give a person t. h. Is thin
true? Will il really reduce . you ?
Mrs. F. A. J.
Answer. It in just a joke played
by ionic "beauty specialist" on the
credulous sex. The notion that
lemon or lemon juice will reduce
Is ridiculous. The nutritive value
of a lemon or its juice is merely
a little less than thai of an nranee.
Otherwise It is practically the" same
In effects. Too many half-Laked
"ex peris" hand out this hokum
about lemons and lemon juice to
the child-minded population. My
belief is that your lemon juice will
rather improve your health, cer
tainly will not reduce your weiyhl.
I think the salt will rather tend to
increase your weight, at least it
will tend to make you loggy. flab
by, and pale. Such excessive in
gestion of salt favors retention of
too much water in the. tissues. Any
how, your w eight is n o r in a 1 f o r ,
your age and height. Forget the ,
ridiculous nonsense.
Asthma From Pillow.
You referred to feather pillows
as a possible source of asthma.
What kind of pillows, would you :
suggest for an asthmatic sufferer
to u: e instead of feathers? Mrs.
-M. M.
Answer. I ,io not advise riis- ,
carding feather pillows unless skin j
tests with the feather allergin in- j
dicates sensitization. In such case,
kapoe or Inflated air pillows may i
be substituted.
