I am rather good looking, and don't use any cosmetics as I have natural complexion, but 1 am a little atout.

What I am really try ing to get to la this, do you think that because I am stout that I don't get any engagements. 1 am very sociable, and all my friends like me, and even married men that I meet want to take me out, but I wouldn't go out with a married man, but why Is It that the married men like me and not the single ones?

It la sincerely hoped It will be confined to that date, and not run Into next January. It la fun to be fooled, as the cigarette ads claim, but It la no fun to stay that way against one'a better Judgment. Last year proved to be an exceptional year In which to be fooled, and there seemed to be something about the process that was delightfully thril ling. In several Instances several who were completely fooled, were In great fear nobody would find It out, and acted accordingly. Last year most of the wholesale fooling was done by home products, but occasionally a well dressed and glib stranger would come down the road from the south, and cash a few bum checks, sell stock In a Bolivian gold mine, and take the family bonds back to Frisco to determine If the numbers were terrd. One atrsngcr who did so. Is Why Parr Elected Fehl "piIE text for today's discourse is furnished by Mr. Bert Harr of Jacksonville, his communication being printed in anoth er column of this issue. "When Mr. Harr confesses that his sympathy for Judge Fehl can be traced back to the Parr libel judgment against FehPs paper, the Pacific Record Herald, he points out a common malady. It is, in our judgment, scarcely an exaggeration to say' that the libel judgment against Fehl elected him county judge. Or in view of certain doubts concerning that election, that same idea might be more accurately expressed, by stating that but for that judgment Fehl would have come no nearer being elected county judge than he came to being elected Mayor of Medford, which except on one occasion, was not very near..' T THB light of recent tragic developments, Mr. Harr has looked into that Parr judgment more carefully, and we take it, has come to the conclusion that the judgment in question wag not bo far out of the way after all, that HAD he looked into it as carefully BEFORE this tragedy, as he did AFTER, he would never have allowed himself to become either a Fehl sympathizer, or a Fehl supporter. We are not only certain that Mr. Harr is absolutely correct in his present judgment, but any fair minded person who will do as he has done, will look into Fehl s past record, and the place this Parr judgment occupied in that record, will, we are confident, come to the same conclusion. Fehl Sympathy Unwarranted THE mistake our correspondent made, is the mistake so many people in Jackson county made, they considered this libel judgment entirely apart from the Fehl record, they were ruled by their sympathies not by their reason. They didn't analyze it even then, but because it was a heavy judgment, and be cause they believed it would deprive Fehl of his news paper which however it did not do they decided it was excessive, unjust, wrong, and therefore in resentment against those responsible for the judgment, and in sympathy for the victim of it, they marked a ballot for Fehl, just as soon as opportunity offered, entirely disregarding the fact as to wheth er Fehl was, or was not, fitted by character or training for the job. " Now Editor Fehl called Roy Parr a murderer, which is what the lawyers call libel "per se" that is libel in itself only defensible if the statement is true. Unless Fehl could prove this criminal charge, present evidence to establish it beyond a reasonable doubt, then no jury in the world could have done other than what this Parr jury did, hand down a verdict of guilty, and assess the damages. Fehl not only couldn't prove it, he didn't try to prove it, he made no pretense of proving it, more than that he refused to retract it, in fact seemed to glory in it. . OW if this had been the first offense of the kind, on the ' part of Editor Fehl, or if he had shown any disposition to modify or withdraw a charge that he oould not prove, we admit sympathy for him, and resentment at the verdict might have been justified. But this was no only NOT his first offense, it was only one of literally hundreds of similar offenses, extending over a period of ten or fifteen years. Year after year he had falsified and libelled, villified and abused, traduced and maligned, un justly and unscrnpuously accused practically every public offi cer in Medford who had tried to do anything for the betterment of the city in whioh he lived. He had called them grafters and crooks, boodlers and penny snatchers, pirate r and robbers, anything and everything, a mind perverted by malice and hatred oould manufacture. For years this weekly flood of falsehood and slander was ignored. Times were good, the city was going ahead in spite of all Fehl tried to do to prevent it, the victims simply rose above it, and decided this was the price that those serving their community, to. the best of their ability, had to pay. Fehl Himself to Blame The Lesson to Be Learned 'TPHE above, in a sense is water over the dam. Nothing can now bring the dead back to life, the crimes committed can't be recalled. But we heartily agree with Mr. Harr, that if the people of Jackson county will profit by the lesson they have learned, and hereafter investigate both sides of a question beforo they take any political action concerning it, then George Prescott did not die in vain." This does not mean a Polyanna complacence, it does not mean letting things slide, it does not mean abandoning every legitimate effort to correct evils and working for every desir able reform. But it DOES MEAN adopting the same attitude toward future political issues, that should have been adopted toward this Roy Parr issue, withholding judgment, refusing political action, until all the facts are known, in short insisting at all times, and under all circumstances, on a SQUARE DEAL, and all that term implies. That's all. But if as a result of this tragedy, this should be the comer stone of political action in the future, then indeed this calamity win have been "converted into an instrument of good," be worth to this and future generations,, the terrific price that has been paid!

TOBACCO SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE OUT finally not long before this Parr verdict by the way, when the cumulative effeot of this character assassination and poison-spreading began to be felt; when more and more people beoame convinced that because the absurd and outrage ous charges were NOT denied, they must, or at least SOME of them BE TRUE, and particularly when Fehl turned from maligning the living who oould fight back, to the dead who COULDN'T, certain city officials did bring charges of crim inal libel against the Record Herald. To those who followed the trial carefully, there was no doubt whutever of Fehl's teehnioal guilt. Again he could not prove his charges, again there was little effort to do so. His defense was almost entirely an appeal to sympathy, his acquittal duo entirely to the fact that at that time. Fehl did show some r-eerer "hTdid sols I aild h was felt tllat let off that time, he would mend his wavs wen on his way towards fooling I and adopt a different course in the future. ruuua . prison tor Kmc time.

Not only the smoker but the non smoker In the same loom, breathing the came atmosphere. Is subject to carlvin monoxide nolsonlng. Some year, ago Dr. Collin of Wtlkes-Barre snd Mr. Walsh, mines Inspector, made tests of air laden with cigarette smoko and found apnroxlmately 3 per cent of It in various samples. Nor mally fresh air contains no carbon monoxide though the air of a street with heavy automobile traffic usu ally shows traces. Eei-rntly Alexander O. Gettler, Ph. D., and Marjorle B. Matties, A3.. Be, M.. made a study of the csrhon mon oxide content of the blood. Ideally the hlood should contain none, but in these days almost every person's blood contains at least a trace. Most city dwellers tested showed sn aver age of 0.37 per ont, country resi dents 0.25 per cent, New York street cleaners 0.69 per cenc two taxi driv ers 1.47 per cent and 4.33 per cent. These Investigators found that smok ing causes a marked Increase in the carbon monoxide content of the blooJ. a cigarette quickly 'Jumping the rate up to 0.70 or 0.60 per cent. One of the street cleaners, whose duties expose them to greater hazard of caibon monoxide poisoning than traffic police encounter, had three times as much csrbon monoxide in his blood as another who had spent the fame number of hours at work on the street but had not smoked The man with the high carbon mon oxldo had consumed six cigarettes while walking and riding several blockt to the hospital where the blcvd tests were made. Many studies of the CO hazard, now In the lltersture, become ques tionable now. because It must be known whether tho subjects had smoked before the analyses of the blood for OO were msde. If we are' to draw an concluslous from the tests. Heretofore this factor has not been considered and In few If any such observations has the smoking factor been checked. T'.-.e untoward effects produced by mild gassing with cirbon monoxide are trlklrurly Ilka those of tobacco smoks poisoning. . whether of the smoker or a non-smoker exposed to the smoke-filled atmosphere. Hab itual or excessive smokora seem to become heedless of the amenities; this loss of consideration for others is naturally more noticeable in the case of the femlnene addict. It Is not hat the person Is really a bold hussy nor Is she giving her imper sonation of the sophisticated movie star: she is Just forcetful of the fact that the secondhand smoke really poisons non-smokers who have to Inhale it and Is sufficient to bring on the symptoms of mild poisoning in sensitive individuals unaccustomed to It What are the symptoms of mild carbon monoxide gassing? They are quite the same as those of tobacco smoke poisoning: Tightness across forehead, headache, flushing of the skin. If the victim' Is not rescued at tills stage, the headache Increases in severity, throbbing in the tern- pies, weakness, dizziness, dimness of vision and nausea follow.

Much Interested In occasional al lusions m your column to mystery story plots ... I am guilty of a few. How about the air bubble thing injeoting a bubble of air into the victim's veins? Is this a deadly thing, and would post-mortem Investigation discover any evidence of the cause or death? o. B. A. Answer Air embolism from serious Injury or oocaslona:!) from ravages of d'sease. Is a well tecognized cause of sudden death, and it Is readily recognizee in necropsy. But the ac- cldental or Intentional injection of a few air bubbles Into a vein ia harm less.

To the Editor: Permit me to humbly congratulate and to thank you for your wise and timely editorial In Sunday's issue "Jennings Is the Man." To any reasonable human there seems no question that Ralph Jen nlngs, because of his BALANCE OF QUALITIES. Is the choice of the people for sheriff. This Is true, em, phaticauy. Otherwise, why would the MAJORITY of voters go to the TROUBLE of writing in his name on the ballot? If there ever was a time that Jack son county should SEARCH for i man of poise, composure, perspec tive in his duty, Intelligence, exper ience. fesrleBsness. and Just fairness to all THAT TIME IS NOW. We should solicit Ralph, rather than HE the Job. That, perhapa, is the case. In my humble opinion, those re sponsible and empowered by law to appoint a TEMPORARY or PERMA NENT sheriff, If and when such ap pointment ta legally necessary, would be recalcitrant In their duties, to consider any other than the proven TYPE OF MAN as represented In Mr. Jennings. If Mr. Jennings wilt take the Job, then all good citizens should get back of him NOW. Lets not give up. state papers any further opportuni ty to justly call us complacent and STUPID. A. R.

Recognition Lost, Je.pan has not only quite the great body of more than 60 nations mak ing up the league, but has cast aside the greatest recognition It ever re ceived from the western, world by simultaneously removing Itself from the council or directing body of the leagu. It was given a place with the British Empire, Prance and Italy as oie of the four permanent mem bers of the council, on January 10, mo six years later another per manent seat was given Germany. The notice of resignation Is an ac cordance with paragiaph three, ar ticle one. of the league covenant, providing "any member of the league may. after two year' notice of its Intention to do so. withdraw from the league, providing that ail Its inter- nat.mal obligations and alt its ob ligations under this covenant shall have been fulfilled at the time of its withdrawal."
