Sth, 1922 11,953 WHY CARE I8 OONSTANTLY URGED Perbaps there is woader on the part of some people that so much is said in behalf of safety measures. The impres- slon may be gained that inasiouch as there {s %o much advice offered upon the subject that the people ought to be thoroughly saturated by this time. However that may be the every day events speak to the contrary. There isn't anything that has received more attention’ than the safety at railroad crossings and yet fatalities continue o Piis 0p at such points. Bqually thorough attention has deen given to the matter of fires and yot carelessness and failure to encourage mafety keep the firemen busy. Highway accidents are frequent, re- gardless of all the regulations that have been adopted, damages caused, sen- cards that it has kept thés division alive. Great Britain has been disposed to show more lenlency toward Germany than has France. France still smarts under the horrible treatment that it sre- recelved at the hands of the invaders,i and there is no wonder that it is credu- lous over the possibilitfes of future at- tacks, or plans for such, Likewise France believes that it is making no more demands upon Germany than :t is justified in doing I view of the facts, and knowing what France has experienced it cannot be dlamed. Propositions have now been advanced by the premiers gathered at London concerning the question of reparations. If there is a carrying out of amy such ideas it will mean still further relief for Germany and mean that it has suc- ceeded in convincing the allies that its contention that it cannot pay what is now demanded is correct. As project- ed it would be ome of the grextest re- lisf measures extended to Germany. While this conferemce basn't developed entire harmony and ended quicker than expected, it remains to be seen what influence % will have upon the coming economic conference at Brussels. THEE COAL INDUSTRY. 1t s the fond hops of the people who are dependent umpon coal for fuel that the commission that is now at work: digging up facts will be able to so pre- sent the situation surrounding the pro- duction of coal that the difficulties and high prices experienced in getting it now will de consideradly overcome. Perhaps they are placing too much confidence n the carrying out of such recommenda- tiors as the commission may make, but there is nevertheless good and sufficient reason for belleving that the ocountry believes the time is at hand for the elimination of conditions which have| botibed wp to create shortages and high| prices every year or twe. The coal commission in a preliminacy statement has pointed out that there ars too many soft cosl mines and too mavny miners for an efficient handling of the coal bustness either from the standpoint of the mirer or the consumer. The in- dustry is over developed. The supply Is greater than the demand and yet the consumers are expected to support ali| those who stick by or enter the busi-| ness. Secretary Hoover, in his annual re- port of the department of commerce, de- «clares that if the soft coal industry could be stabilized there would be a cut of i 1 jdrop in and danco somewhere NORWICH “Come on and go for a long ride and we'll have dinner somewherd” began the popular young man who had just drawn his natty speedster up to the curb. “Oh, Egbert, I can’t!” sweetly said the extremely fashionable young woman who had just finished reading an article which stated that much as the modern man may play around with the frivolous, useless, butterfly type, he always picks a girl for her sterling housewifely qualities when he got married. She ostentatiously shift- ed a large bundle from one arm to the other as she sprke. “You see, Egbert,” she proceeded, giv- ing the astonished young man the full it of her eyes. ™I simply cannot Jeave home today because dear mother is in the throes of housecleaning and she needs my help——" “Great Scott!” gasped the popular young man. “Since when have you fallen for honsework- = “Why, Begbert,” thé fashionable young woman reproved him innocently, “I think home should come first in a woman's in- tersst, don’'t you? And I certainly never could enjoy myself off having a good time knowing that my mother was slaving and moiling in the house.” “I dom’t seem to get all this, some- how,” objected the popular young man. ! “T didn’t know yrn ever Mted a Gmmoe “The very idea!” laughed the fashion- able young woman. “Why, this very minate T am ‘carrying home a large hor- rid old pot roast which has to go on right away or it won't be done in time for dinmer!

Thrift of effort is personal efficiency, which depends largely on one's willing- ness to concentrate on one thing at a ] “I do feel kinda queer,” the popular young man said. “Have you got on a dif- ferent hat or anything, Marie?

The fashionable young woman looked a. trifio disappointed and puzzled. “Why, Egbert!” she remonstrated. “Surely you would not have me neglect my duties at home for the sake of my own pleasure, would you? I ean't endure disorder!” “I declare!” the young man said. “You said once that you never got up till noon and then you play bridge or dance till dinner and go to the movies or dance after dinner!” “I caw't imagine whers you get such funny notions,” the fashionable young woman told him sweetly and patiently. “That is not my idea of a real woman's life at all. 1 think an apple pie would | j &0 well with this roast.” “Well, if you wom't you wom't” the !young man said, disappointedly, leaning forward to touch the starter.

A doctor was examining children of BULLETIN, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1922 Don't Spoil a Good| Meal With a Bad Stomach It is really a pitiful sight to see so many thousands of people worrying about what they can eat and what they can't eat. Dyspeptics, they call themselves, but they stretch the imagination when they do it. All these people need to make them healthy, cheerful and of sound ap- petite is a box of Mi-O-Na Tablets. The stomach of a dyspeptic is over- worked and run down. It needs help to digest the food, but more than that it needs a prescription that will cleanse, renovate, strengthen and put elasticity into the stomach walls. Mi-O-Na -is the prescription that will do this and do it so promptly that you'll wonder why you didn't try it before. It stops belching of gas and distress after eating in five minutes. It is un- doubtedly the greatest stomach tonic ever given to the public by a special- ist in stomach diseases. Leading druggists everywhere and The Lee & Osgood Co. sell Mi-O-Na on the money back plan. L_tag;hieat If Back - And Kidneys Hurt Take a glass of Salts to flush Kidneys if Bladder bothers you. Eating too much meat may produce kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, pas- ticularly backache and misery in the kidney region; rheumatic twinges, se- vere headaches, acid stomach, consti- pation, torpid Jiver, sleeplessness, blad- der and urinary irritation.

RESTRICTING ARMAMENXNT, ‘What must be regarded as tho see- come of the conference in this country for the restriction of armament is .the| call for the Pan-American oconference| on disarmament among the South' American countries whicrh is tn na w-iq in Chili next spring, and »y the ex- pressed desire of Brasil for an cailir meeting of the representatives of Argen- tina, Brazil and Chili for the purpose of a preliminary discussion looking to such an end. This is an instance where these lead- | ing countries understand that they are making heavy outlays for their mil. tary establishments and if they can come to an understanding regarding such expenditures, instead of plunging ahead with the idea of not letting the other fellow outdistance them, it .01 result in a great saving and 2 much better telationship. The three sesmers have most at stake, and naturally neir problems will be the most complicated, If they can through an agreement, m- dicate in advance of the big conference what they are prepared to do they can do much to simplify the discussion be- fore the bigger conference. ‘What was set in motion at Washing- ton has had its influence throughout the world. All that was planned by the con- ference has not as yet been ratified or @ocomplished.

An old adage tells us with deep truth that anything worth doing is worth do- ing well. There is no place in our pro- gressive “ American life today for the elipshod, careless person. Those who merely shuffle along, dodging essentlal details, are out of place in our current life. Opportunities to broaden and advance come only to those who prove their ability, step by step, and are willing to take infinite pains with each thing they do. Nature does not endow us with the genius of doing big things quickly and well. Progress must be acquired by diligent application and concentration, first upon the seemingly unimportant ap- plication and concentration, first upon the seemingly unimportant tasks and then on those of constantly increasing consequence. Learn how to do well one thing at a time. This involves not only the feat of accomplishing the definite undertak- ing, but it is a lesson in valuable ac- uracy. The mistake often is made of trying to do too much or of endeavoring to ad- VARG o0 IRUMLY.

It has through long years become the -standard and meanwhile has passed through twelve editions and many reprints of each edi- tion. T The thirteenth edition is now out. We understand that the author had spent his entire time during the past two years in re-writing the book from cov- er to cover. In the new edition there is nothing left unsaid. The entire field is covered. Dyke’s Automobile - Encyclopedia is probably unique in the stress that it lays on the importance of fundamental prin- ciples, and on insisting that these be understood before secking to learn about specific features. Far oo many car owners—and mechanics as well—are su- perficially informed on such subjects as ignition, storage batteries, starting mo- tors, genérators, transmissions, clutche: etc. ‘The éxhaustiveness with which the jbook treats these subjects—and all oth- ers—makes it easy for the man who has read it or who has it handy for refer- ence, to diagnose his own troubles, and, if he wishes, to make his own repairs. In short the book makes a pretty com- petent mechanic of even the casual reader.. The man who will study it will emerge from its study as a well equip- ped mechanic prepared for any emerg- ency. It is jammed full of information for-every car owner. Its scope can be judged from the fact that’ on -repairs alone ere is covered such things as engine, clutch, transmis- sion, universal joints, rear axle parts, electrical parts, how |to repair radia- bearings, tions, rings, differential gears, ete.
