Much depends now on President Calles. If he can be ‘wise and firm he will be able to keep his country from plunging again into the welter of confused strife that always used to follow the murder of a president. If he lets the situation get out of hand, so that the s - ing politicians who are always willing to start a re tion for personal gain can successfully raise the banner | of revolt, there will be a disaster. Whatever happens, however, this much is clear: Mex- fico has a long and bumpy road to travel before complete stability can be had. A democracy rests on the willingness of all the peo- ple to abide by the rule of the majority. It presupposes & spread of education that makes every citizen com- petent to consider the questions of the day in an intelli- gent manner. Mexico has not reached those points yet. Her attempts at democracy are bound to be sketchy and jerky. A start, however, has heen made. During the past half dozen years the beginnings of a real educational system have appeared. Mexico is beginning to be mod- ernized. It can’t all happen at once. Obregon probably is not the last leader who must go out in the old way. But it is up to us, north of the Rio Grande, to be patient and sympathetic, lending a helping hand whenever we can and seeing to it that our government never puts any obstacles in the way of the southern republic's progress. for a presidential candidate by either of the ties, he is promptly surrounded by advisers who ; themselves politically expert. These advisers are al- ways suggesting that the candidate go in for some stunt | or other, usually quite alien to his personality, although | it is supposed to have a magic effect upon this or that | vote. If the candidate follows their advice, he quite as often as not makes himself a bit ridiculous, and not in- frequently alienates more votes by the procedure than he wins. Many times these sttnts suggested by the superwise advisers amount to nothing more than the candidate's losing his dignity wighout registering any compensating gain. We believe that the public is shrewder in these mat- ters than the political pundits suspect. Even a child of six knows when his father is “in character” and when he is not. Everybody knows that no spectacle in the world is more pathetic than that of a naturally austere and dignified man trying to be a good fellow—that is pretending he ig something he is not. It is all very well for an impulsive man like Roosevelt to do startling and boyish things. The Roosevelt its grew directly out of the Roosevelt temperament. Boyish acts and out- bursts were natural to him; at heart ke always re- mained an ebullient boy. But the political value of the Roosevelt stunts lay in the fact that the public, with its sure sense in such matters, recognized that they were an authentic part of Roosevelt. They were not forced. It might be stated as a general ule tha. the public is certain to know when stunts are forced and when they are not. All of us will concede that while the boy- ish acts of Roosevelt fitted Roosevelt marvelo would not have fitted Charles E. Hughes presidential candidate, we believe, is always remain “in characccr.” We think that the best adviser to any candidate is the adviser who says: ‘Be yourself.” In the cases of Hoover and Smith, both men are evi- dently determined to be themselves, no matter what advisers suggest; and we maintain that that indicates that both are wiser than the politicians, THE FIVE-DAY WEEK (Duluth Herald) : President Green of the American Federation of La- bor, speaking Wednesday before the Wisconsin State Federation, reminded his hearers that the great organ- ization he represents is committed to the policy of a general five-day working week.

BY RODNEY DUTCHER NEA service Writer year when all the smart political writers and nearly all the dumb Political writers are shaking their heads and saying that this election will be a horse race of which no man can forecast the outcome. _ And you can’t prove anything else by this r, either. Alveady Dr. Hubert Work has an- nounced that prosperity will be the Hoover campaign keynote and that experience has proved that you can’t ever trust the Bemocrats with pros- perity. ; Experience hasn’t proved anything of the sort, of course, but a great many people think it has and it may be that on November’s first Wed- nesday everyone will be believing what beat Smith, Meanwhile, Smith will undertake to offset that. He will parade a choice assortment of manufacturers, bankers, corporation lawyers and other millionaires. The list is headed by Campaign Manager J. J. Raskob, chairman of the finance committee of General Motors. iness may prefer Hoover, doesn’t distrust Smith, ar but it entioned figured in The prosperity holler is first only because it hi so many election ci before. Pi The trouble with doping this election is that not only will all the old de- ciding factors figure this. year, but also a great troop of new ones. | This, for instance, is the first and looked so red when it wi first proposed, becomes of a new convenience. It is another milestone in Progress. Most of us are pleased and take it for granted, pleased because there is to be a reduction in the gas rate and taking it for granted because things of this kind have become commonplace, Yet 2 gas pipe line from Cabin Creek to Glendive and from Glendive to Fargo is a distinct achievement. Some- body thought it out, investigated all its possibilities, saw the opportunity for service and quickly capital- ized it. The practical engineer had a good deal to do with it. He is the man who made the plans and turned his brain to solving the natural obstacles involved. He is the best forgotten man in America or the world as a rule. He builds our bridges, tunnels our moun- tains, constructs our railroads. He is always in the forefront of things, yet we seldom see him, honor him, or acclaim him. For instance, it is not a thing of steel that bridges ‘the Missouri river between Bismarck and Mandan. In the last analysis it is a man’s mind. The bridge is the thing he thought about, dreamed about, designed to a mathematical nicety. It is the thing of his mind. What @ wonderful mind. How wonderfully he served other men. What happiness, what convenience he placed at 1. studied. much unemployment.

As result both the railroad and the northwest are benefited. Today there came to the Tribune’s desk a copy of that @plendid newspaper, The Christian Science Monitor. On its first page was prominently displayed with pictures @ story of the recent livestock special which passed through this section over the Northern Pacific.

There is a small amount of air or alimentary tract It is the excessive amount which causes painful symp- toms. Many pains in various parts of the body sometimes far removed from the digestive organs are only reflexes from intestinal pains from stretching by gas. Many patients have the odd habit of unconsicously swallowing air with their food or at the same time that they imagine themselves belching. I have examined many patients under the X-ray who, not having any gas in their stomachs would begin belch- ing. Immediately I could see them swallowing bubbles of air which soon filled their stomachs and caused unpleasant symptoms. This is simply a bad habit which must be corrected. Any inflammation of the stomach or intestinal tract will produce gas even when one is not eating. Pa- tients who correct their diet some- onder why the gas does not jately disappear, but it often to form until the inflam- subsided and digestion normally. Overeating, mation takes pl bad food combinations, eating too rapidly, eating when tired, drinking too much with Is, eating too often, using indi ‘ible foods, and the use of foods which are gas- forming in themselves are also causes of this trouble. After all these bad habits have been corrected, it sometimes takes several months to eliminate most of the gas-forming bacteria which are in the intestines for the purpose of breaking up food materials that have been used in excess or in bad combinations. One who lives on an ordinary diet may harbor millions of states, for instance, believe racial Breiutice will hold them for Smi ile that along with the religious sue and the likelihood that the so- called hyphenates will vote on na- tionalistic lines and you have a lot of prejudice to figure in. f IN NEW YORK | ene imran. July 24—The girl- distinct development unted feminine eman- about-town i cipation. Seldom does she appear with an escort. In fact, she would consider it just a bit old-fashioned to make her entrance in the company of a man. She tries terribly hard to show that she can “go places” and “meet people,” quite on her own. And she strains just a bit too hard in proving that she is completely in- dependent. Few of the hardiest he- men would lay claim to a similar sense of freedom where women are concerned. It has become quite the thing for this type of young woman to show up when and where she pleases. She even bangs at the doorways of the carefully guarded cocktail resorts and demands to put her foot upon the bar rail.

It is well for one afflicted with flatulence to taboo all onions, garlic chives, cabbage, turnips and condi. ments, and to select a suitable diet to which they will adhere strictly until they have overcome their trouble. Those who use restricted diets where a smaller amount of food is used will often be surprised to notice that they have more gas than they did before while eating carelessly. This is because the small amount of food does not entirely use up the digestive juice, and the re- sult is that gas is formed when the excessive acid fluids of the stomach pour into the intestines and are neu- tralized by the alkaline intestinal juices.

Many women’s disorders are ag- wated or entirely caused by istension of the intestines with poisonous gases which force the pelvic organs out of their normal Position. Most cases of flatulence can be benefited or cured by following the “Cleansing Diet” regime which I so frequently advocate. Those who are literaly walking “gas factories” will do well to send for the special article Dae Prepared on this “Cleansing et. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Question: K. J. asks: “Is there any way of making a large nose small by operation? If so, is it dan- gerous, and where would you advise me to go for it, and what is the cost of such an operation?” Answer: I would not advise any- one to try to reduce the size of his nose by an operation unless, per- haps, he happens to be in the the- atrical business. This operation is dangerous, and always very expen- sive if performed by a skilled plastic surgeon. You should be proud of your large nose, as physiognomists and phrenologists tell us it is a sign of great mental powers. Question: J. D. writes: “TI re. ceive a great deal of help through your daily writings, and am wonder- ing if you would advise eating dried figs, prunes, and fruit of that kind without being stewed?” Answer: The dried fruits you mention can be used without cooking and are even more wholesome when used in this manner. Some enjoy the flavor of the fruits when aah are soaked over night in a smail amount of water, and then eaten without being cooked. Question: W.R. S. writes: “I am a little near-sighted and look very funny in glasses. Could my eyes be cured any other way besides wearing glasses?” Answer: Near-sightedness can be helped to some degree by improving the general health, and by taking the eye exercises. These exercises will strengthen the muscles of the eyes sometimes enough so that you can go without glasses, even though your eye defect is not entirely cor- rected. It is advisable to wear glasses at least when reading, as long as the near-sightedness con- tinues, ne, where” and invariably is a partici- pant in the latest vogue, whatever it may be.
