that place, but can see no good
reason for a resident of the prai
rie, in writing for your paper,
calling the former "Hardman." or
the latter "hard scrabble." Bo
far as we can learn from the
farmers there are quite aa good
and prosperous aa in the other
parts of the prairie and we dent
think It fair for "Itemlter" to
wound the feelings of the nelgh

The unpaid Chicago school teachers
declined to eat lunch with Chicago
bankers. Roth are caara, In their re
spectlve professions. The bankers re
tain thela money, and the school
teachers thela urroald salaries. The
school teacher, however, for yeara has
been regarded aa something to fight
with, and who receives no publicity,
cava when ahe spanks the Incorrigible
on of a prominent cltlaen, and rouses
the' community. The sons of Chi
cago banker better behave themselves.
The Mooney Case Again
SSUMING Tom Mooney is a menace to the country, he is
' a far greater menace in jail as a martyr, than out of it
aa an agitator.
As long aa he remains in prison, he is a constant issue for
the radicals, serves both as a talking point for new recruits
and a source of revenue for new campaign funds.
The Mail Tribune has always favored Mooney's release be
cause it has believed, and still believes, there is a reasonable
doubt as to his guilt. .
This reasonable doubt is sufficient to justify such action.
But we also believe his release would be good policy from the
standpoint of the public welfare.
We are tired of the Mooney case and believe most other
people are tired of it. Giving Mooney his freedom would end
the case, as far as radical propaganda is concerned.
i
rE radicalism that Mooney represents, does not constitute
a very serious danger to this country. The United States
as a whole, is congenitally and organically ANTI-BOLSHEVIK.
What danger as a free lance agitator Mooney WOULD rep
resent, could best be opposed by free discussion and education,
far more effectively than by repression and incarceration.
So both as a matter of justice and a matter of public policy
we favor ending the Mooney case, once and for all, by trans
ferring Tom from San Quentin, to his San Francisco home. .
BUT we realize, of course, there as about as much chance of
this, as there is of the radicals and reds dropping the
Mooney case, as their most profitable source of revenue and the
spear point of their un-American propaganda.

DOES IT MATTEB MO CH WHAT YOB EATT
ft ?''Ir
Another popular ftUacy we wlse-
acree reluct to relinquish Is the no
tion that any fool can prescribe a
diet. I know, tor
n every day a lot
iJ ol Wiseacres ask
me to prescribe
one for 'em. It
Is obvious they
take me for a
fool, because as
a rule they mere
ly mention the
name of some
real or Imagin
ary malady and
ourtly order me
to send the diet
for It. Or some
of tne more gullible ones go to the
trouble of telling me the nature,
cause and symptoms of the malady
without delay.
Take "acidosis" for Instance. Now
there's a purely Imaginary malady
that almost any fool but a physician
can recognize at a guess. Makes a
pleasant variation from "autointoxi
cation" when you're played out on
that line. Moreover, some of the more
snooty mediums are manifesting ac
tuai diffidence about unpleasant dla
ousslons of certain bodily functions
and It Is growing increasingly diffi
cult to sell "autointoxication" treai-
men-., but "acidosis" Is a subject on
which anybody can say what he likes
ana nobody can stop him. So "acid-
osls" 'Is now all the rage amongst the
n 01 polio 1, and many are so badly ob
sessed that they Insist on counting
the calories, assaying the vitamins
and knowing precisely how acid the
ash of every Item in the bill of fare.
S f ar as my observation goes, there
Is rarely any serious harm, done by
all this monkeying with diet. Oc
casionally some girl with more beauTr
than brains goes to extremes with
reduction and presently finds that
the latent tuberculosa that this lights
up will keep her reduced for a long
while. It is quite roncetvable, too.
that Injudicious restriction In the
variety and quantity of food consum
ed may impair health or various func
tions through vitamin deficiency.
Catering to the popular demand
for dietetic hokum Is quite a business
In this free country For every odd
notion or belief about food there is
at least one "author.ty' 'in the form
of a 'self-confmendej "food experc '
or "specialist." From the fancy that
tomatoes' cause cancer, rheumatism
or acidosis to the belief that fats,
sweets, buckwheat f.iid other good
iooos cause pimples, there Is some
such "authority." That's enough fori
uie wiseacre mind. .
I do not mean bo deny that In
some particular conditions special!
dietetic treatment ts helpful. Indeed.1
I pass out such advice to many ovr-
respendents reduction regimen, cor
rective protective regimen, menus for
victims of peptic ulcer or hyper
acidity and for the well members of
the family snd suggestions in refer
ence to the diet In many other con-
anions. But I do believe that It
doesn't matter much what you eat
if. you are fairly well,' provided you
have a normal liking for a reasonable
variety of natural or not too much
processed foods.
Even in diabetes as we now under
stand the functional fault, It is im
possible to prescribe a suitable diet
without such know'-dge of the pa
tient's Individual capacity to meta
bolize or utilize the different food
materials as the physician obtains b7
tolerance tests.
Show me your cut and dried diet
list for this or that ailment and I'll
point out the misconceptions on
whloh it is based.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Born With a Veil.
Some time ago you had an article
about babies born with, a veil. Mj
son was born that way. Please tell
me what significance this has. . . .
Mrs. S. O.
. Anfwer Before birth the baby Is
contained in a membranous sac,
floating In amnlotio fiuld. Usually
when the neck of the womb Is fully
dilated, at the beginning of the ex
pulsive stage of labor, the membrane
spontaneously breaks- and there is a
gush of waters. Sometimes this does
not happen, or the physician or mid
wife does not ruptur the "bag of
waters" and the membrane is thus
intact when the child's head Is bora.
It has no significance
Hankering for Salt.
What would cause an Intense han
kering for salt? I eat a teaspoontul
of dry salt every day. Is it Injuri
ous? Mrs. 1. H.
Answer It is harmless in that
modprate quantity. Perhaps your
diet does not Include sufficient fresh
meat Where the dltt is largely vege
tarian there Is Insufficient salt pres
ent in the food.
Lip Reading. '
Please tell readers every deaf per
son can learn to read the Hps In

words properly with the Hps. In this
way I can talk by the hour with
some of my friends and never have
