OVERLAND LIMITED, EN
ROUTiJ EAST, July 28. On
the Union Pacific now, one
of the greatest railroads in the
world the HEART of the
American railroad g y g t e m.
MoBt of the passengers and
freight from one coast of this
country to the other, pass over
the double tracks of the U. P.-
connecting with various other
lines at Ogdcn and at Omaha.' A
gold mine in the past, but suf
fering with all other railroads
now, in epite of a tremendous
cash reserve. No doubt it will
be a gold mine again. For one
can't cross this country and not
have absolute faith in its pow
ers of resuscitation.
There are 12 Pullmans, a club
car and a diner on this train
All the Pullmans are comfort
ably filled. Something like
$2200 in Pullman fares alone.
Doesn't look much like a de
pression. The round trip Pull
man fare from Medford to Chi
cago is within $30 of the pres
ent round trip railroad fare.
Something wrong there 1 War
prices for Pullmans and war
prices in the diners. If they
made expenses in 1029, they
must be coining money now.
Well, probably we shouldn't
begrudge the railroads making
money in SOME directions.
Heaven knows they are losing
enough in others.
A cross-country railroad trip
is always interesting. People
of contrasting, types and from
various parts of the world,
gather together for three days,
in a house on wheels, and dis
play various traits of complex
human nature. There Is a Ko
rean potentate aboard, he
looks like an Oriental doll
not much larger than the ex
pansive Panama he wears. His
wife is young and pretty, with
a gorgeous mop of frirzy black
hair, and , with their state
room door open she often
strums a ukelele. One specu
lates about 'them who they
are, where they are going, what
is their history as one specu
lates about many others.
Awakened early this morn
ing just before we reached
Cheyenne, by a commotion
across the aisle. At the sum
mit, 8000 feet, a couple from
San Jose on their first trip east
in 25 years, had simultaneously
suffered hoart attacks. The
porter was scurrying about and
a young naval officer en route
to Washington rushed first aid
with a huge silver whiskey
flask. Fully expected a double
obituary, from all the noise and
gasping, but the man was in
the dressing room sucking an
orange, when we got there.
"Thought I was going to die
sure" said he, "couldn't get
my breath, but the admiral
fixed me up and Rosey, too.
OK now,", and the man from
Snn Jose unlimbered his safety
razor.
"That hooch will cure any
thing," said the "admiral"
proudly.
It apparently cured a weak
hear, for half an hour later we
saw the man from San Jose
eating French pancakes and
maple syrup in the diner.
Rosey, however, stayed in
her berth and we heard her de
clare plaintively their return
tickets over the Canadian Pa
cific would HAVE to be
changed "for we go up 12,000
feet there. It would kill us
both."
After such an emotional
shock the man from San Jose
became intimately communica
tive, on the observation car
platform s
"Haven't left San Jose in
25 years. But this year made
more money than ever before.
I believe in spending it while 1
can. Not like one of my clients
who took $25,000 in cash out of
the bank and put it in a safety
deposit box. That's bad. Bad
oj her; aud everyone else, I
never advise my clients to do
that, but some of 'em do."
"CLIENTS!" The man
must be a lawyer. He wore
nose glasses on a broad black
ribbon, but there was no other
evidence of legal training. In
fact his treatment of the king's
English was scandalous. Also
he wore very loud and cheap
-sport shoes and rolled his
own cigarets.
The mystery was later ex
plainid. The man from San
Jose is a pawn broker I
No wonder he had a good
year and many "CLIENTS."
Thanks to the early morning
rising met the Korean poten
tate also on the rear platform.
Immaculately attired in linen
suit, under the expansive Pan
ama binders don't bother him
big as a minute) delicate
features, just the suggestion of
a mustache a face as expres
sionless as an idol.
He too became communica
tive. Talks perfect English,
graduate of Cornell, en route
to Washington, he surveyed the
passing farm houses and green
fields everything is green
and remarked in part as fol
lows :
"You Americans are so spoil
ed. All one hears is depression
and your farmers are so badly
off but look at them. In the
Far East when crops fail, the
farmers DIE, See the corn,
alfalfa, horses, cows and com
fortable houses. See that man
at the gate he doesn't look
hungry. There's a car in the
shed. He can press a button
and go to town for salt and
sugar. He can kill a pig and
have meat for a month. He
isn't in rags, neither he nor his
children are staggering from
hungor and fatigue. A native
with a horse and a pig is rich
in my country. And with all
that you say your farmera are
poor and your country ruined.
Tou don't know what bad
times are."
True enough. .But perhaps
that farmer owes money, has a
mortgage, due, will lose his
place. What thent
The little man smiled, and
shook his head.
"What thent I lived five
years in this country. No one
starves here. Look at the Red
Cross, your thousands of
charitnble institutions. Have
you ever been in China, in
Korea, even Japan, during a
orop failure t Not Do it some
time."
The little man produced a
oigaret, put it in a holder, as
big as himself (ALMOST) and
pressed a pocket lighter.

Seeking to get closer back to nature,
the young bucks up this way have

It looks like a council of the tribe In

The Idea, of course. Is to acquire a

If thla crar for tan continues one
may expect by next year to see them

Surprise For Joe Angelo

Copyright King Pastures Synd., Inc.
Washington News, describ
ing American soldiers using
force, and tear gas to drive vet
erans of the World war, from
their encampments at the capi
tol, is disquieting.
No one will suggest that (he
country's laws should b'e ig
nored, or set aside, even for
men that have fought for their
country.
But all wish that a difficult
situation might have been han
dled more satisfactorily, on
both sides.
Curious things happen in
war, and in peace that follows.
You have heard of Joe Angelo,
of Camden, N. J., in the big
war. Joe Angelo was aid to
Major George 0. Patton, in
charge of light tanks.
One night of a patrol, Patton
was badly wounded by a shell
fragment. Angelo dragged him
to safety in a shell hole, stayed
with him all night.
Angelo was decorated for his cour
age, but learned that there la little
nourishment In decorations. He was
In Washington, looking for a Job or
payment of hla bonus, and It became
the duty of Major Patton, now In the
United States cavalry, to drlvs Joe
Angelo with other veterans, out of
their Washington quarters in Camp
Marks.
Calling out the army, to bum the
camps of the "bonua army" and drive
the veterans out with cavalry, ma
ohlne guns, Infsntry, tanks and gas
attacks, will supply what Is called
"extreme radicalism" with texts, for
many a day.
Calling out the army has happened
rarely In Washington. . It occurred
during the "whisky Rebellion"" in
1794. and can happen, hereafter only
by direct order of the president.
Thick-necked men and the conceit
ed kind, with thin necks, used to say
women must not vote, because they
lack the courage of us men "
They vote now and every day, prove
that they have more courage than
"ua men."
Your realize it, when you read
about Miss Earhart, crossing the At
lantic alone, or the two lady pilots,
Mrs. Marcells of Centervllle, Mtas.,
and Miss Phaden of Baltimore, going
up to beat the women's non-stop fly
ing mark of 130 hours.
Women's real every day courage Is
not recognized.
Yesterday, In the thick traffic of
Lafayette street, New York, a middle
aged women, sailed along, dodging
heavy trucks and big fast cars, alt
ting In a little "bath tub" aide car,
of a three wheeled motorcycle. A
boy of sixteen drove It, another
younger boy sat back of his brother,
talking to his grandmother.
She pointed out the interesting
sights and queer people, waved her
arms, turned her head, skimming at
high speed within a few Inches of
truck weehls. The boys had said "It
is perfectly safe, Grandma," and for
her, It was perfectly safe.
You, proud man, would not have
taken her place for the real estate
that she passed on her swift career,
If all the great companies In America
had lnaured you. But her grandsons
had said It was safe, and ao, It was
safe. She wore black silk, and an
old-faahtoned hata May ahe live
long, to defy the Fatea.
Americans hove been assured that
Russia has no respect for womea,
their rights, or the sacred msrriage
tie, but certain young Russian hood
lums have not found It so. Following
mistreatment of a young girl, tour of
them have ben ahot, eight aent to
Jail for long terms, and no protests,
or weeping could save them.
Former King Manuel, kicked out of

Fl'BTIIEB COLON
The fundamental or underlying
trouble with a lot of people who Buf
fer with apastlo constipation, mucous
colic, oolttu or
gome similar
complaint Is they
know so many
things about the
p h y s iology and
hygiene of the
alimentary tract
which ain't so.
The nostrum peo
ple, quacks and
fad or cult heal
ers as well as we
orthodox medical practitioners, have
taught them these things, and are
still teaching the same line of ho
kum. ' In the antecedent talk about colon
physiology we pointed out a fact that
Is seldom considered, namely, that
the contents of the lower colon of
man and Indeed of all mammals In
health. Is dry( solid, formed tn masses
or lumps. It is a common mistake
to strive to keep the colon contents
liquid or fluid by means of cathar
tics, freak diets, bowel washes and
the like.
It may be a matter of Interest,
though It has no particular hygienic
importance, that from one-fourth to
one-third of the weight of the normal
contents of the lower colon In mam
malia Is composed of the bodies of
bacteria, dead and alive. These bac
teria are not 6nly harmless but prob
ably beneficial to the host. What
does matter, and hence should be
known by everybody, Is that these
germs naturally present In the In
testine serve to disintegrate the food
residue, splitting up gases and acids
Into products which are the nat
ural excltora or stimuli of Intestinal
paristalsls or propulsion of the con
tents.' That's a lot for the layman to
learn In a day, particularly when his
head Is already stuffed with the old
hokum above mentioned. But the
gist of it ought to be easy to under
stand and good to know; Ordinarily
your own colony of colon microbes,
If not Interfered with this Is the
IMPORTANT part of It If not inter
fered with the bacteria naturally
present In the Intestine aid digestion
and help to keep you comfortable
and well.
Here la a little lesson which may be
difficult to learn, due to obfuscatlor!
of the subject by the purveyors of
sour milk nostrums. I hope It will
help the bewildered layman to see
more clearly when I say that the
propaganda of the lactlo vendors has
been ten times aa grert an Influence
upon popular knowledge of colon hy
giene as the various Bulgarian or
Acidophilus preparations have had on
the flora and fauna of the Intestinal
tract.
That's the end of the lesson for
ten-thousand Frenchmen, "almost
hysterical In their delight when their
champion won."
French, men and women, can play
tennis, or anything else that de
mands great nervous energy. Leng
len, Borotra, Cochet, all prove It
But If the California boy, Vines,
keeps hla health, and continues to
Improve, he will be the world cham
pion in a year or two, as Helen Wills
Moody of California, is woman cham
pion today,
Chicago's Judge Trude, by Implica
tion, approves birth control, and Is
first with a Judicial decision to that
ef'ect. He made a husband pay his
wife separate maintenance. She did
not want any more children, and the
Judge agreed with her that the exist
ing number, five waa too many.
This would interest the mothers of
Napoleon, Marconi and Caruso, whose
families numbered from about a
dozen to nineteen.

num waa a "neat housekeeper:" con
ducted herself as a lady at tell times;
and was an Ideal mother, In the care
of a minor child whose custody she
seeks.
Evidence was also produced In an
effort to show that Barn urn was of
a surly and quarrelsome tempera
ment, staged "parties" and took trips
with other women, waa "close" with
money and failed to provide for his
family. Witnesses testified to a
number of Incidents of family life,
including the charge that ,he drove
gxieats away from his home by flour
ishing a pistol.
Witnesses for the plaintiff for the
moat part were kin and women
friends.
The case will probably be conclud
ed for consideration of the court by
Wednesday. The plaintiff la repre
sented by Attorney Charles W.
Reames, and the defense by Attorney
A. B. Reames.
Mrs. Barnum In her complaint,
seeks 133,000 alimony In a lump sum
or $360 per month, the custody of a
minor child, one-third of the real
property and $1000 attorneys fees,
and suit money. The case has been
pending for two years.
The defense Is expected to Intro
duce evidence to show that Barnum 's
wealth la far below the plaintiff's
claim. He la a son of a pioneer

purely of secondary Interest. In the
small Intestine the motor or peri
staltic function Is regulated by or de
pendent on such chemical substances
as glucose, lactose, amlno-acids, pep
tone, glycerin and soaps, there being
all natural by-product of digestion
of a wholesome mixed diet. In the
large intestine the products of bac
terial fermentation of carbohydrates,
and such gases as hydrogen and car
bonic acid gas, are more active In
maintaining the motor function.
A year or two ago some all-around
specialists who know how to get

needs stimulation, Issued public
warnings against the practice of eat'

natural foods. They Implied that
such foods are all right for rabbits
but too "Irritating" for many up

mentary canals are not so long.
Personally, I approve of the food
In the form the Creator offers It.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Drowning.
Does water enter the lungs at the
time of drowning? If not, under
what conditions does water enter the
lungs? What amount of water enters
the stomach? A. P.
Answer. As a rule only a trifle of
water la found In the windpipe, and
none In the lungs. Some mucous
froth, perhaps stained with blood, is
found in the windpipe. The lungs
are merely congested or overfilled
with blood, as In asphyxiation from
smothering. Considerable water may
enter the stomach, mouthfuls which
the victim is compelled to swallow
aa he struggles for air. Death Is due
to shutting off of the air, not to the
water that enters the breathing pas
sages. The en ranee of a little water
into the windpipe, however, may ex
cite spasm of the larynx or choking
which would contribute to the as
phyxia. Baby Teeth.
Is It advisable to have a two-year-old
child's teeth filled ' or pulled
when they decay? Mrs. K. W. H.
Answer. Some of the baby teeth
should be filled, for their premature
loss tends to make the permanent
teeth Irregular.
Boric Acid Snuff.
Kindly Inform me about snuffing
boric acid for catarrh . . . F. M. R.
Answer. I do not advise It. A
reader reported that he finds great
relief from chronic sinusitis by snuff
ing a pinch of powdered boric acid
once or twice a day.
How Soon Resume Exercise?
How soon after confinement should
a woman start the exercises you ad
vised? Mrs. W. P. P.
Answer, As soon as her physician
gives her permission.

Oregon Indians'
Condition Today
Written by Mrs. R. C. Van Valzah
and read before Crater Lake Chap
ter, D. A. R.
(Note Since this article was writ
ten there have been before congress
several bills relating to Indian af
fairs In Oregon, which when passed
and put into effect will change many
of the conditions mentioned).
Chapter 8.
Henry D. Dlllstrom, one-eighth
Modoc, who was employed at the
agency said that machinery that the
Indians could use and was a lot
better than what they had, waa con
demned and destroyed rather than
let the Indians have It. Dlllstrom
was discharged from the service be
cause he thought that the Indian
blacksmith at the agency should
shoe a team of horses for $3 which
was the regular wage rather than
send them an all day trip at $4.60
a day to Culloquln where the black
smith charged $14 for the horses
from the agency, making the Job
cost $18.50. All this because the
agency blacksmith was an Indian.
A few years ago some Indian
girls from Klamath were attend
ing St. Mary's academy. They had
dental work done In an office here.
A statement of the cost was sent
to the agency and a check received.
No voucher was signed. Some time
after, the father of one of the girls
visited the dental office and In talk
ing about the work asked If It would
be possible to find out the price
of his girl's work. The price waa
given him. He shook his head and
said, "Thpy said it was about five
times that amount. They cheat us
nil the time and we can't help our
selves." The Indians are discussing three
pinna" whereby they can rid them
selves of the Indian bureau. First
la the Carter plan. Second the cor
poration plan. Third the plan where
by they sell out "lock, stock and
barrel." put their money into gov
ernment bond and receive the in
terest. In that way the capital
would no be dlMlpated.H
I quote thla from a letter from
Ida Crawford, a Klamath Indian who
has taken an active part In the
Klamaths' flirht for property rights.
She WTltes: "The polttjcal situation
entirely responsible for the condition
Is exactly as it was 100 years ago.
Pernoris of Indian descent, and the
Indiana themselvea. now know that
reservations are maintained for graft
and exploitation, with terrible wrongs
to the Indians.
If the people of the TJ. S. would
only move against the huge appro
priations made hy conrera for the
maintenance of the parasitic civil
service employee of the Indian bu
reau, a great saving would be marie
to the tax pa?rrs of the nation and
a great and lasting good doe to
the American Indian."
