MINERVA K.
NEW SALEM, Illinois, June 23. Here is the place for the
Lincoln Pilgrim, to linger. We should have stopped here on our
way to Springfield instead of on our return, for here a serious
effort has been made to build something that will be a fitting
and permanent memorial.
New Salem is on the direct route from Springfield to Rock-
ford via Peoria, Sterling and Dixon, which we selected for our
return. The greater mileage will, we are sure, be more than
compensated for, by more interesting and attractive scenery.
Nearly three hours of sunshine, after a solid week of dark skies
and rain, have already added tremendously to the enjoyment
of our journey thus far. -,v
These words are being typed on the banks of the Sangamon
river after a modest lunch of sandwiches and milk. That Lincoln
spirit and atmosphere we found so painfully lacking in Spring
field is all about us. We have just walked through the one
street of the partly restored village and looked into the old
log cabins, as well as the old Berry Lincoln store, where Lin
coln clerked, read the Bible, studied law and made a failure of
the mercantile business, but secured what proved to be a very
useful education.
It is a beautiful wooded country, New Salem having been
built in a thick grove of oaks, maples and hickories, on the
bluff high up above the river. We are seated near the site of the
old mill, and one can obtain a beautiful view of the Sangamon
valley, stretching away in the distance. The river is high, but
it flows by very slowly, winding between its muddy banks and
disappearing, around a curve perhaps a quarter of a mile away.
The low bending branches of trees, shrubs and long grass make
a frame of solid green, through which the dirty stream wan
ders, in many places the leaves touching the water.
Yes, it is very beautiful beautiful and restful, peaceful, and
soothing, in fact we are not at all sure it isn't LAY. In fact
as we regard a group of CCC boys, about a hundred yards away,
moving wneeiuarrows or sod, tnat strikes us as the fitting
word. CCC boys are scattered all over the place, fixing the road
up the hill, staking wires to some newly planted trees, and here
digging up sod, and one of them running a motor lawn mower.
It is all a perfect picture in slow motion. They are lazy,
EVERYTHING is lazy, this is a lnzy world, where Lincoln
spent five or six years of his formative period. And we have a
pious idea that when Lincoln was here, tending store, he was
regarded as lazy. There may even be hook worms in this black
damp soil.
We don't mean lazy in the conventional and deruiratoiv
sense. We have no reference to indolence or shiftlessness. It is
a matter of record that Honest Abe split fence rails and there
are piles of old fence rails all about hero now that he whs
husky and muscular, could handle the village bullv with mm
hand, etc., etc., but we doubt very much if he was as energetic
and industrious, as the young bucks down Springfield way. It
was so easy to read and think and dream up here that Sanga
mon river down there (Old Man River) higher than it has
been in '30 years but barely moving between its lush green
banks, somehow gives the key. That mnv bo the reason win-
Lincoln failed to make a go of store-keeping here it may be
why New Salem was built id 1829 and abandoned in 1839. whv
Lincoln movod away two years earlier.
Ouly one of the CCC boys is working now, the other four arc
in a group leaning on their spades and talking it over. The
movements of the one working reminds us of an old grand
father's clock a very largo one the movement of the long
pendulum back and forth, back and forth tick tock, tick
tock. Why go faster, with that old Sainrainon down there the
absolute silence all around, the birds chirping in the trees, the
sun shining through a damp hare that is rising from the rain-
soaKca eartn, vviiy indeed. Such a world wasn't made to rush
about in, it was made for relaxation, for reading and contem
plation. Ye editor feels lazy, too ho would like to tin OW HU'nv flip
pesky portable, lean back against a nico soft moss grown log
and just sit and think or as the old gag goes sometimes onlv
sit. That sort of thing is in the air.
And it somehow brings up Lincoln and our conception of
him, when just about a hundred years ago he was here right
on this very spot no doubt. For these were his formative years,
and we believe it was fortunate they were physically, not too
luuuno ur too acuve years, lie wasn't very busy in the store.
There were no movies at night. He had a irent final m H.,, t
study, to read, to think and to dream, and New Salem .. the
periect place lor such things! It was not here that Lincoln, the
lawyer and statesman was formed, but we have an idea it WAS
here, that Lincoln the nhilosonher

INSULIN OR UNDERWEIGHT.
Correspondent 27 years of age says
he weighs 120 pounds, 36- pounds
underweight. He has not been sick
for the past
seven years. He
has tried every
thing to put on
a few pounds,
but recently gave
up the attempt
and concluded
tha his herl
tage was . against
him. He has
twin brother who
Is also In the
same condition.
Then came an
article In this
column telling of the insulin treat
ment to put on needed weight, for
persons who are underweight and
have no diabetes or other apparent
disease to Impair nutrition. He was
encouraged enough to aslc a promi
nent physician about It, and the
p. p. advised against It. Then he
communicated with his old family
physician. "Absolutely not" said the
f. p. T wouldn't take It If I weighed
only 30 pounds. Insulin shock Is a
aespernie xning;
Not so good. But the thin man
was game and didn't give up until
he spoke to a corporation medical
man. The c. m. m. advised him that
the added weight would be artificial
and that it was good only In cases
where weight had been lost after
sickness of some kind . , .
So what? ,
These objections are hypothetical,
not based on experience.
Probably hundreds who read this
have received insulin treatment to
enable them to gain needed weight,
have gained weight and vigor, and
havo never experienced Insulin shock
or anything but happy results from
the treatment.
A dollar to a doughnut that all
three of the physicians this thin
young man asked about Insulin
treatment have never used Insulin
In the treatment of diabetes or any
other condition.
Any physician who Is experienced
in the use of Insulin for diabetes
r-.ows that It Is perfectly safe to
give any one moderate doses of In
sulin, provided the patient Is in
structed about taking some food
along with the doso or soon afterward.
Insulin shock, or hypoglycemia,
sometimes occurs where a large dose
of insulin Is given and the patient
fails to take some food with It or
soon afterward. In certain cases or
diabetes, where the patient's diet
Is restricted, this Is a risk which
requires vigilance on the part ot
the physicians and a modicum ot
intelligence on the part of the pa- 1
tient. In ordinary circumstances,
however, where there Is no diabetes,
merely nutritional deficiency, In
sulin shock simply does not happen.
I have had reports from hundreds
of underweight readers who are de
lighted with the gam they have
made under Insulin treatment.
By the way. It should be of In
terest to all underweight Individuals,
whether , they receive Insulin treat
ment or not, that a liberal intake
of vitamin B has an effect com
parable with a moderate dose of m
BUlin, after you have taken the vita.
min B for several weeks.
I suggest that the thin young man
consult a physician who la trained
in the modern school.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Giddiness.
I know It la common and nothing
serious, but curiosity prompts me
to ask what is the "blackness" one
sometimes feels right after getting
up from a sitting or recumbent post
tlon, often accompanied with a tin
gling sensation as when a foot or
arm "goes to sleep." B. M.
Answeir Any one may feel such
giddiness for a moment on suddenly
getting up from bed or from a chair.
If it Is too troublesome It bespeaks
lneinctent circulation, neglect
dally, exercise, . overeating, shortage
of vitamin C, or anemia.
Condiments,
What food value Is there in pep.
per, Bpices and condiments? Are
they necessary for health, strength
and "pep?" M. A.
Answer They have no food value
They are not essential for health,
strength or "pep." They sometimes
serve to stimulate a poor appetite.
They act as carminatives, slight Irri
tants to the stomach and secondarily
to the genlto-urlnary . tract. The
practice of dousing mustard, pepper,
hot sauces on food which Is In ltscll
not appealing to appetite, accounts
for a great deal of bad health and
bad behavior. Occasional use of con
diments Is perfectly healthful, but
abuse of such stimulants Is akin to
alcoholism, indeed it probably ex
cites the craving for alcohol in many
lnstancea.
' Guide Book.
I should like a copy of your fa
mous guide book. AI60, please ex
plain what pureed means. E. T. K.
Answer Inclose dime and stamped
envelope . bearing your address for
copy of "aulde to Bight Eating."
Pureed means pressed throueh coarse
sieve or colander.

HABMON M. WALEY. one of the

Weyerhaeuser, gets 4S years In the
federal penitentiary a t McNeil's
Island.
8evere punishment if he la kept
there for the full term of his sen
tence. But not as severe as the death
penalty.
IJTAliEY'S comparatively mild sen
's tence ANY term of imprison
ment is milder than death has given
rise to rumors of a deal. It la guessed
that the federal authorlt'les may have
promised Waley escape from the death
penalty In return for disclosures re
garding his confederates.
If that la true, fear of the death
sentence still worked in the Interest
of Justice. Capital punishment Is a
grisly and terrible thing, but it haa
its uses in controlling crime.
nOEE Important, really, than the
severity of the sentence or Its
lack of severity; whichever way you
choose to regard It? Is the prompt
ness with which Waley was caught
and punished.
The kidnaping was on May 24. On
June 21, less than a month later, one
of the kidnapers was sentenced to
federal prison, after he had confessed.
That Is quick work, and good work.

If the president of the United States

Its activities during the past year
have brought tremendous publicity
to Jackson county. j
Many chambers of commerce hold
weekly forums but the local chamber
only holds such meetings when the
occasion demands.
During 1934 only 14 forum lunch
eons were held, with 12 the pre
vious year, but at most of these
meetings an outstanding, national
figure was the guest of the city.
Letters received from those enter
tained would indicate that their re
ception In Medford was very much

favorable publicity to the city and
establishes the fact that Jackson
county is a friendly and hospitable

To the Editor:, As long as the lions
are fed they can be kept quiet, but
when-the beef gets so high and you
don't have any money to buy it with,
what then? While some sections of
the country get par of the dole that
the government is sending out, wnat
about the remaining part that don't
receive any?
If our government continues In the
future as It Is now, how long will
It be until we are under a dictator
ship and communism will be under
full sway? The average American
can't walk out of his door on the
public highway or street without be
ing met with some declaration that
you can't do this, or you oan't do
that. How much longer are ";he
American (red-blooded, I mean) peo
ple, who will give their souls and
bodies for American principles, going
to stand fon'such domination?
Look at congress. What has It
done? -Those congressmen not all of j
them, for there are some merf there
that have got the good old American
blood in them and will not be dom
inated by any one-man power, re
gardless of who they are, or what of
fice they hold, but will fight to the
last ditch for liberty for the Amer
ican people.
What we need In the United States
of America today, a we never needed
so bad before, is men and women who
look to the Declaration of Independ
ence as their every day guide, for
them to follow every day.
Don't wait until It Is too late, but
act now, and save America for the
future generation for freedom and
not oommunism and dictatorship. '
Don't wait for George to do it, but
do It yourself.

ONLY A BOO
Somebody poisoned my dog today,
Though he never did anyone 111;
And so he is through with his oanina
play,
And his wagglety tall Is still.
No more shall I walk In the fields
with him, .
Along at my side to Jog;
And I don't cere If my eyes are
dim
Somebody poisoned my dog!
He was homely, I know, as a dog
could be,
And only a mongrel, too; 1
But I loved him and he loved me,
As people and dogs may do.
Nothing on earth could disturb hla
trust
Or his love and faith befog,
And now he lies here in the dust
Somebody poisoned my dogt
He crawled to me feet and he licked
my hand,
And then with a gasp he died;
And though some people can't un
derstand I patted his head and cried 1 i
For It Isn't funny to lost a friend
From off this "earthly cog,"
And he was loyal unto the end-
Somebody poisoned my dog!
I wonder how anyone could have dona
This por little fellow harm;
But here he lies his race Is run
Though his body's still soft and warm.
My life is lived on a peaceful plan.
My pace la a quiet Jog.
But I wish I could find the snafca
of a man
Who poisoned my little dogt
