MOLLENDO, Peru, February There is no excuse for Mollendo. ‘Why anybody should go to the trou- ble of hanging a city on the edge of a few formidable rocks passeth all understanding. There is not even a harbor here and when the tenders | Trought as in from the ship we were #natched aloft in a chair suspended to a derrick vhich whirled us up and over a pile of cargo and de- vosited us with a thud on the pier. At a town a few miles north there is a fine natural harbor but the graft- ing government officials haven’'t been made to see it in the proper light et 1 struggled through the “Aduana” Rnd past the pirate horde of “flete ~—those evil hombres that clamber up the sides of ships and infest the wharves scarching for baggage to ®mash—and at last gained the creaking portals of the Hotel Fer- grocarril on the edge of town—it's all edge. The roaring ocean chew- ¢Ing away at the rocky to of the city soon lulled me to sleep, but the police force soon woke me up. About every five minutes a policeman blows a squeaky toot on his toy whistle which is answered by the other braves along the line, thus proving that they are awake and kegping the peace—but at the same time most successful in destroying mine The Southern Railway of Peru, Ltd., swaited me and I clambered abroad, after buying my babbage back from the fleteros, and settled dow in an easy chair in the “Coche Salon. .

Disputes are foolish and are vain A waste of time with nanght to gain 0ld Mother Nature. | Peter Rabbit should have been at | home in the dear Old Briar Patch, but he wasn't. Here it was broad day- light and he was still over in the Green Forest. “You may well is the on sensi Jor it wouldn’t be safe the Green Meadows big cousin, Jumper the Hare. “True, quite true.” replied Peter. “But you know how nervous little Mrs. Peter is. She’ll worry all day Jong. I ought—I really ought—to start for home this minute.” Just then a low, deep, booming Mound like distant thunder caused Peter and JuMhper to sit up and point their long ears straight up. “Huh!" @xclaimed Jumper, “that startled me as stay. In fact thing to do, to try to cros now,” said Peter #1 GUESS YOU HEARD WHAT I SAID,” RETORTED JUMPER. for just a second. It is so long since I have heard Thunderer the Grouse drum that T had forgotten that he does drum. I suppose that from now on we will hear him often enough until Mrs. Grouse gets right down to housekeeping. Thunderer certainly does like to make a noise.” “I wonder what he would do if he @idn’t have a hollow log on which to beat,” sald Peter. Jumper turned and stared at his ) “Would you mind saying that safd politely, PLEY. A Peruvian passenger was just bidding his friends good-bye. There were five friends to speed the parting guest, but he took his time. Throwing both arms around the nearest friend, he kissed him on both cheeks and dramatically delivered himself of a | long farewell “My dear and honored friend,” he said, “it is the time to say good-bye I am about to leave you for three hundred and sixty-five days—twelve months—one year— and my heart is breaking—I am sad—etc., etc., etc but, God willing, I shall return hence —three hundred and sixty-five days —twelve months—one year——" And then turning to the next friend he threw his arms about him, kissed him, and repeated the very same thing. And he went through the same performance with the next—and the next—and the next, until the train, starting with a jerk, tore him loose. Whereupon he sank sadly into a chalr and fell into a fitful slumber that reflected his Latin emotions in the expressions of his face that seemed to change with every bump of the train as it went lurching along up the foothills of the Andes. What a rough train! It is rougher and harder than the Way of the ansgressor. Sometimes I feared the car would leave the tracks—or what would be worse, its crazy bucking would wake up my Peruvian friend who might in a startled moment mistake me for one of his comrades and feel it incumbent upon him to bid me farewell for some three hun- SOLICITOR large “compensatlon: permanent; 210 Tnternational Bldg.

Thunderer the Grouse doesn't strike a hollow log with his wings to make that drumming noise. A good part of the time he isn't even on a hol- low log when he drums. He isn't now. Listen to that. You never heard him drum better, yet he isn't on a hollow log.” “I know better!” retorted Peter, beginning to lose his temper. “Why., ever since T was big enough to wab- ble my nose I've known that Thun- derer uses a hollow log for his drum- ming. 1 didn't suppose there was anybody living in the Green Forest who didn’t know that.” “Still, I say that he isn't using a hollow log for his drumming now, and, what is more, he very seldom does,” insisted Jumper. Vell, all T can say is that for one who has lived all his life in the Green Forest you don’t know much,” as- serted Peter. “What I know I know,” retorted Jumper. “I don't swallow whole every tale I'm told like folks I might mention. Have you ever seen Thun- derer drum?” Peter was forced to shake his head and say that he had not. “Well, I have,” declared Jumper. “I have seen him many times.” “T've seen the hollow log he uses,” declared Peter. “Did you look to make sure that it is hollow?” demanded Jumper. No—o,” confessed Peter reluc- tantly. “But it is so old it must be hollow,” he added. Jumper merely grinned. “You are talking about something of which you know nothing,” said he. (Copyright, 1925, by T. W. Burgess.) PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. Noted Physician and Author. Cheese for Acidosis. Until just the other day limburger chee: had always been a mere hypo- ical questipn to me. So far as v own senses were concerned, there mas no such thing, although I be- Meved limburger cheese existed. And iy lack of faith in the folk tales and Jegends about it w fully justified Awhen T found a package of it knock- g about the grocer’s counter all mealed with parafin paper and foil. T was a little disappointed with the personality of the cheese. Tt seemed artterly drab and neutral in character, Put I credited that to the infancy of the cheese—it was just a 19-cent or trlal size package apparently intended for experimental purposes. Tenderly ¥, carrled it home in my vest pocket fittle T recked how brave that was. About a week later. along toward 2 k onc morning I put down the ¥ fn the blue room to inventory the commissary department, and there lwas the dainty little package of lim- Burger, waiting patiently to be spread bn some biscuits. I unwrapped the vuckage, and immediately appre- ended that it was a condition which konfronted us and not a theory. This opinion was fully sustained by the nanimous verdict of the household hat morning, and several subsequent hallots confirmed the primary verdict. Although excluded from the voting, I eserve the right to make a minority eport, and my judgment is that Hm- urger cheese makes a pleasant and Wroper spread for bread. biscuit or crackers. Cheese Is perhaps the richest source ptg phosphorus in gur dietary. It is puperior to any allbged “nerve tonic” r any organic phosphorus in the form ¢ medicine, as a source of phos- rug f0X Ahe human systei, P‘hov. phorus has little to do w system, however. Less than 1 per cent of all the phosphorus in the body is contained in the brain and nerves. All these wonderful hypo- phosphites, glycerphosphites and other phosphorus combinations are Just applesauce—nay, a teaspoonful of applesauce contains more phosphorus for the body. The phosphorus compounds in the body, particularly the phosphates in the blood and protoplasm of other tis- &ues, enable the blood and tissues to remain neutral or faintly alkaline, in spite of constant production of acia products of metabolism. Cheese, any kind, is of great value, therefore, in the diet of one with a tendency toward acidosie, Acidosls is a state in which the neu- trality of health is lost and an excess of acid products of metabolism is formed or retained in the blood and the tissues. It has nothing to do with real or imagined ‘acidity” of the stomach. It has nothing to do with the question of eating acid fruits or vegetables. The liberal use of acld fruits and vegetables opposes any tendency toward acldosis, as a rule. Acidosis is a feature in many disease conditions. The principal acid sub- stance concerned in acidosis is carbon dioxid. the gas given off by the lungs. Cheese is too often avoided by ill- informed folk who imagine it is “in- digestible” or “constipating.” It is neither. There is no food substance of equal food value more easily or readily digestible than cheese, There is no-food which constipates. Cheese being so completely digested leaves little residue in the intestine, and is therefore less laxative than some other foods, but it is not in any sense binding. opssisnt, 1058 N ___ h the nervous OLICITOR wanted.
