NEW YORK CITY, July 2.
O's new streamline train for Washington. As usual the tt was
packed to the doors. AVe have been here a week and gone to
town on the L every day, but going or coming have never been
able to find a seat. Yet this Ij and all the other LTs they say, are
losing money. Something suspicious about this. Sounds very
much like frenzied financing at some stage of the game.
Perhaps if we stayed here long enough we too could read the
morning paper standing up, with one hand on a strap, and the
train jerking and jolting, coming to a sudden grinding stop
and then starting with a sudden forward jump, sending the
crowded mass of liumanitv forward and backward, like water in
a churn. Hut to date reading
morning. ,
Which was the reason we failed to see some startling news
until we finally secured a seat in "The Royal Blue," and were
shooting smoothly out of the Jersey City station.
Robert Ames of Boston, Massachusetts washed overboard
from his yacht in the mid-Atlantic, and his two sons one in
Harvard, the other just graduated both drowned trying to save
him !
Talk about, self sacrifice, heroism and filial devotion! noth
ing finer in all our annals of peace or war, than that.
If there is a hereafter and honors are awarded by some just
and benevolent diety, who could properly precede these two
lads, at the head of the procession!
The Royal Blue is a streamline train, of the latest coal burn
ing model and makes the run from New York to Washington,
a distance of 2125 miles, in exactly four hours an average of
over 55 miles per hour. The service was only inaugurated a
week ago, and is another feather in the cap of one of the oldest
railroads in the United States. They charge no extra fare.
We anticipated the trip with a great deal of pleasure and
were certainly not disappointed.
Isnnprinr tn nivlimirv frnin trnvpl
V-8 is superior to travelling in an old Model T Lizzie.
At certain stages of the trip the train hit it up at ninety
miles an hour, but unless one looked at the telegraph poles whiz
zing past in a solid blur, there was no consciousness of excessive
speed. In the first place the train is built low to the ground,
there is no swaying or vibration, the wheels run on ball bearings,
and while the construction is light, aluminum, and duralinm
steel it is sheathed and stream lined so compactly, that it
doesn't roar and crash over the rails so much as it glides in
fact it comes nearer flying ON the ground than anything we
have ever experienced.
While the Royal Blue has been running for a week, it is still
the transportation sensation in this part of the country. All the
wav from New York to Philadelphia the tracks were dotted
with people, school children,
every station there were crowds who had apparently come down
just to see the Royal Blue go by. And did it go by! When a
stop was made it was only for a
carries a mail and express car too!
railroads waste more valuable time sticking around stations
than in any other way.
Tho Royal Blue also demonstrates the much maligned "iron
horse" is still in the running. A steam locomotive, of the latest
type, supplies the motive power, and can if pushed make a speed
of 110 miles an hour. We were informed by a Baltimore and
Ohio official they expert this train to make the run to Washing
ton in three hours and a half before tho year is over.' That is
railroad progress and we herewith take off our hat, to Jtr. Daniel
Willard and t ho B. and O. !
The train is air conditioned throughout, cool as a cucumber
everywhere and tho furnishings within are both comfortable and
luxurious with davenports and shaded reading lamps in the
observation car, which is largely glass and shaped like a
"Corona Corona" cigar.
Association of ideas are often

CLINICAL TEST FOR CHRONIC LEAD POISONING.
Altho lead Is not Included with
the score or more of elements nor
mally present In the body, w be
lieve that the
body of every
dweller In city
or town contains
a trace of lead
City dwellers
dally take In
some lead from
one source or
another, this
metal being
widely used In
Industry and the
arts. Lead Is
taken Into the
body either thru
Ingestion (in water, food or medi
cine, or the habit of chewing, suck
ing or eating substances containing
lead or contaminated with It) or
thru Inhalation of fumes or dust.
No one now seriously Imagines lead
Is or can be absorbed Into the body
through the unbroken skin.
This usual. If not normal, dally
absorption of lead and the constant
dally excretion of a trace of lead by
the Intestine, kidneys and sxin (noio
back, wiseacre. It doesn't follow that
what comes out must go In the
asms way), complicates the diagnosis
of lead poisoning. Just where shall
we draw the line between the quan
tity of lead one may absorb or ex
crete dally without apparent Injury
to the1 health and the quantity
which is certain to produce poison
ous effects? And how can we de
termine whether the dally excretion
of a minute quantity of lead thru
the kidneys damages the kidneys?
If such damage occurs. It takes years
for the signs of chronic Interstitial
nephritis to develop. Meanwhile the
diagnosis, whether of chronic lead
poisoning or nephritis (Brlght's dis
ease) or arteriosclerosis, or neuritis
rheumatism" or headache or ane
mia or mental aberration or depres
sion or stomach trouble or unex
plained weakness of a given muscle
or musclo group or an unexplained
rise In blood pressure. Is a matter
of your physician's opinion.
Chemical testa of the excretions
for lead give unsatisfactory results,
for the reason already mentioned.
No one knows where to draw the
line. j
A microscopic examination of the I
blood gives a better index. It seems
that a constant manifestation of
the presence of a harmful quantity
of lead is a- peculiar stippling or
spotting of the red corpuscles In the
blood specimen stained for micros
copic examination. But the technic
of this test Is difficult and tedious,
and the reading of the result Is,
after all, arbitrary.
Probably the most satisfactory ,
gauge of the question in any case

While fascists rejoiced at Mussol

his big three-motor airship while It

here reiterated that Italy neltner

of her conflict with Ethiopia.
Once again they declared the mat

once for all directly between Italy
and Ethiopia. Italy wants no half

said, then war may be avoided. If
not, war Is certain.

equipped, but numerically superior,
Ethiopian defenders In 1896) was an
exception only because of the dif
ference In proportion between the
forces. There wete only 4.000 Italians
against 100,000 Ethiopians."

famed fascist slogan "better to live
one day aa a lion than 100 years as
a lamb' In this wise: i
"Every Italian prefers a life of
heroism to a life of uselessnrss."
That phrase brought the greatest
ovation yet from the Italian youths

men Italy already has sent to her
colonies adjoining Ethiopia. j

done by a de-leadlng diet (low cal

or promotes excretion of lead, ana
If two or three weeks of this falls

reasonable to conclude that the lead
Is not due to lead poisoning.
The low calcium diet contains no
milk, no cheese, no eggs, very little
fruit or vegetables. It Includes meat,
potato, liver, tomatoes, rice, canned
corn, bananas, raw apples or baked
apples or applesauce, butter, breaa
made without milk, soda biscuits,
crackers, sugar, pepper, salt. No nuts,
no peanuts.
Readers need not ask me what
medication aids or promotes excre
tion of lead. That Is for the patient's
physician to decide. The low calcium
diet Is only for mild chronic lead
poisoning. More acute or severe trou
ble would be aggravated by such
treatment.

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
complain bitterly In these
days because we can produce
more than we can sell, and call
loudly upon the government to do
something about It.
If the law of supply and demand
stands In the way of the govern
ment's doing something about It, we
Insist upon Its repeal.
WELL, back Tn the beginnings of
Southern Oregon,- they produc
ed more than they could sell a lot
more but they didn't call on the
government to dispose of the .sur
plus. To begin with, the govc-nmi-nt was
a long way off and made up of hard
boiled Individualists who believed In
the doctrine of root hog or die, nnd
to end up with the pioneers of
Southern Oregon weren't the kind of
people to cry to the government for
help In every little emergency.
They, too, were rugged individual
ists.
LINSEY Slsemore, pioneer of both
the Rogue and the Klamath
countries, reminiscing the other day,
gave a fascinatingly Interesting pic
ture of the beginnings of the South
ern Oregon country.
"The early settlers of the Royue
River valley he said, "lived In one
of the richest rfeglons of the west, but
they didn't get lch quick. The prin
cipal reason was 'ack of markets.
"They could produce, but they
couldn't sell. Business was mostly
by barter and trade, what little
money they had coming from the
mines. They live! well, but they
couldn't get rich."
4
(CAN example of prices:
"My fathe was a greot trader,
buying stock all over the Roue
Rlger valley. I remember once wnen
we were out on a buying trip, a man
offered a cow and calf for sale. My
father finally bought the two for
$8.00.
'After we had left, he said to me
That cow and calf aren't worth 3.00
but the poor devil needed the
money'.
NE piece of equipment constantly
-
carried by his father Lir.sey re
members well. It was a pa'r of sad
dlebags, with a money bag on one
side and a heavy pistol and holster
on the other.
In the money bag, he carried silver
and gold money Trat. you know,
was shortly aftee the Civil war, and
people were suspicious of paper
money. They'd had their fingers
badly burned with It. especially those
who came from tho South. They
wanted good, hard money that could
be relied on.
They'd heard the same old rosy
tales about printing prew money
that we're hearing now and these
tales of paper money prosperity had
turned out to ba rank frauds. They
wanted nothing more to do with the
stuff.
So Llnsey's fathct had to carry
gold and silver with which to do his
buying. ,
ii A BOUT the first Industrial en
's terprlse I can remember In
the Rogue River valley," Llnsey says,
"was a salt spring my father bought
from some men who had fltrd on the
location. '
"He carried the salt water down
from the spring in wooden troughs
to big Iron kettles In which the
water was evaporated by boiling. The
resulting salt could be sold for cash."
THE next Industrial enterprise,
catering to an equally primitive
need, was a pottery. It wlil be de
scribed In a subsequent article, as
this column Is getting about long
enough for present-day newspaper
readers.

BUCHAREST, Rumania, July a.
(AP) Elizabeth of Hohenzoltern.
princess of Rumania, today aban
doned hope of restoration to the
throne of Greece. She obtained
divorce from former King George.
The capital heard whispers that she
Intends to marry her secretary and
run a model farm.
Greece Is to have a plebiscite in
the fall on restoration of the mon
archy. Elizabeth and Alauander Szanavy,
tall, handsome, 40-year-old Greek
who served In the Czarlst army dur
ing the world war, have been on
excellent terms for some time. Re
cently Szanavy became court cham
berlain and personal secretary to the
former queen.
Friends say Elizabeth had farming
tn mind when she purchased an
estate from Count Toraczonyl, Hun
garian magnate, near Tim I soars not
so long ago. She reportedly paid
35.000,000 lei (about 3,5O0.OO0) for
It.
These friends say the ex-queen in
tends to convert the magnificent
estate Into an experimental farm on
the American model and manage it
with Szanavy. The estate Is the only
place In Rumania where rice
grown.
Elizabeth, now living In a pala
tial residence at Bucharest, not far
from that occupied by Mme. Magda
Lupezcu, King Carola red-haired
friend, expressed no surprise when
Informed her divorce suit had won.
It had been understood long In ad
vance that the proceedings would
be pure formality. They were held In
secret, and fhe court needed only
io minutes to return Its verdict.
George, now living In London. Bald
no attention to the trial. He was
not even represented by counsel. He
has five days from next Monday to
appeal, but It is not believed he will
do so.
It was announced Elizabeth would
resume her old title of Elizabeth of
Hohenzollern. Princess of Rumania.
