population have always felt that the

that they would make a much better
chief executive than the Incumbent.
The tarlH or tre taxes have alwaya
been the pole-axe, with which the
plutocrats apllt the people , up the

much; Toft waa too fat; Wilson waa

After a trip across the country
this is apparent: however de
pressed humanity may be, in
the year 1D32, Nature ISN'T!
One wonders if Nature had
not decided to make np what

material way, have been suf
fering. For certainly the coun

eastward never looked more
glorious, nor for that matter
more prosperous. Arising early

river, we had the pleasure of
seeing northern Illinois in the
early sunrise hours, and won
dered more than ever why some
modern Corot has not placed

earth's surface on canvas. Fat
sleek cows grazing in lush
green meadows ; obese pigs and
swarms of little ones ; chickens,
ducks on a pond; a perfect sea
of corn, tasselled out higher
than a man; grnin in the shock
a threshing crew over there,
pulling off the tarpaulin get
ting to work, rolling hills,
'dotted with groves of trees;
huge barns, comfortable farm
houses, silos sticking up, like
towers in the chateau country
of France; a quiet, winding
river below, a Budden hollow
roar as the train dashes over a

silence. Very modern and
somewhat cynical, this young
lady who is en, route to New
Tork to study for the stage,
but exceedingly intelligent,
and refreshing in her honesty
her complete absence of pose
her clear-eyed (we almost
said virile) candor.
This morning she could
scarcely have denied the beau

HER kind of beauty. Anyone
waxing lyrical over northern
Illinois she would regard as
incredible a bit soft in the
upper story.
She would be wrong there
however. The intolerance and
immaturity of youth would be
to blame. For it all depends
or largely srj upon where one
tfas born. It makes no differ

mountains, or fhe plains or
the tenements of New Tork for

this country, have as yet no
interest in the presidential elec

political. They are only in

it is going to get better. -
As one man who boarded the
train at Kearney, Nebraska,
expressed it, "I care a lot more
about what the price of wheat
will be next November than
who will be elected. What dif
ference does it make anyway
Hoover or what's his name
Roosevelt, it's all the same."
No doubt, this public indif
ference will change, and of
course the local politicians are
talking politics now as usual,
but the rank and file, bot' : on
the train and off showed no
more Interest in partisan pnli
tics than In the Sino-Japnrrese
war.
.Vice President Ourtis and his
party passed us in western
Nebraska, en route to , the
Olympic games. The entire
train knew he was coming but
as far as we could find out
only the present writer and
one middle aged woman on the
Overland took any interest in
the matter. We stood on the
observation platform and gave
"Charley a wave."
It then developed the mid

not entirely political. She was
greatly disappointed when she

Newspapers and public men
in Europe muck this country
for declaring violently against
tanks and poison gas before the
League of Nations and using
tanks and poison gas against
our own veterans, gathered in
Washington to demand pay
ment of their bonus. '
Hereafter perhaps this coun
try wijl reserve some of the
tender consideration that it
pours out on foreign nations,
for its own former soldiers.
If you don't believe in using
tanks and gas against foreign
ers attacking your country,
you should not use them
against your own soldiers,
plunged in misery and asking
relief, jobs or the bonus from
a government supposed to be
grateful.
' Mr. Waters, commander In chief of
United States veterans driven out of
Washington by United States soldiers
would start a "khaki shirt" party
uniting In a great army all the veter
ana and all the unemployed and
'clean o.t the high placet of govern
ment."
It Is easy to understand Mr. water's
Indignation Immediately after events
In Washington, but' reflection, and
the average America!., will tell him
that the United Statea la not at this
moment inclined to turn over Its
government to fssclst blackAhlrts,
Hitlerite brown shirts 'or an Impro
vised psrty of "khaki shirts."

Americans, told that they were to
compete In a marathon race of
twenty-six miles three hundred and
eighty-five yards, grunted and said
"that is for boys." They want the
marathon extended to ninety or at
least eighty miles and give MEN a
chance to show what they can do.
The Frenchman Baron Pierre Cou-

thing In the gamea Is not to wit. but
to take part; the Important thing In

have conquered but to have fought

Excellently put, but from the

take part AND WIN. To struggle,

these spots are not apparent when
the baby .is born but appear within
the frit month of life. Occasionally
the mrk disappears spontaneously
after a few months. Perhaps this
spontaneous disappearance is favored
by the application of a film of collo

the contraction of the collodion as
It dries and hardens.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Cream of Tartar.
What do you think of taking a
teaspoonful of cream of tartar with
a spoonful of sugar tn a glass of
water once a day, as a laxative?
W.'E. S.

Soda for Cramp In Thigh.
A medical friend who does not de
sire publicity informs me that he
has found' by accident1 that a dose
of sodium bicarbonate (saleratus,
soda) , 1 mm one-half to one tea
spoonfu relieves cramp In the thigh
muscles promptly, in from three to
five minutes. We should like to hear
from our readers about this. The
doctor does not say how the soda
Is to be taken suit your own prefer.
en ce take it as powder washed down
with water or dissolved In a half
glassful of water.
What. No Pillow.
Our three children, 7, 6 and 3,
have never slept on pillows except
as young Infants. None of the adults
In our family uses a pillow. What
is your opinion of this? H. A. J,
Answer It Is Immaterial, bo far
as health is concerned. Use a pil
low, two pillows or none, as you
prefer.
Insulin for Progressive Arthritis.
Your article, told of the use of In
sulin for progressive arthritis, also
parathyroid hormone Injections. Could
my mother, who receives Insulin for
dlsbetes, and also suffers from Joint
trouble, take parathyroid Injections
advantageously? W. T.
Answer The remedies have no spe
cific effect on arthritis, but are
rather given to Improve metabolism.
Tour mother's physician can best
Judge whether such treatment would
be advantageous to her.
