Very clever, gentlemen, very

that it isn’t lawful, you will have
the record of his reply in Herod’s
hand in an hour; and instantly he j

is lawful, he will lose his popular

GALL-STONES
1 If you are past middle age, fat,
“tubby” and—sedentary, you are a
likely candidate for gall-stones, and
especially if constipated and neg
lectful of diet, bowels and exercise.
Then, if you eat too much.
I don’t see as many gall-stone
cases as I used to—not at all; peo
ple are becoming educated.
Not all gall-stones announce
themselves by the severe pain of
passing through the bile-duct; I
once did an autopsy on an 80-year
old patient—a woman—who had
carried over seventy large stones
in the gall-bladder for years, with
out knowing she had them!
These concretions are caused by
long-retained bile in the gall-blad
der; they form somewhat like
sugar forms in the bottom of the
syrup-pitcher that is little used.
Prevention means—to keep the bile
moving; exercise helps to do this.
A plain, nutritious diet, and tem
perance in eating is another aid.
Plenty of green vegetables, the
“leafy” sorts are of use in the diet.
Lettuce, spinach, dandelion greens,
well-prepared cabbage, colslaw, and
such. •
,1 am partial to the coarser
breads at least once daily. People
have told me sweet milk , and eggs
“make them bilious.” I think they
are mistaken; the tei m “bilious
ness” is so old it has whiskers—
like all pious old frauds', it means
always something e/se.
Best remedy for/threat of gall
stones, Phosphate if Soda—I mean,
best family remedy; it is harimfig;.
Should be taken every momin®Jje
fore breakfast, enough to keep^jhe
bowels moving comfortably. A
simple, well-tfyed remedy is safer
in the household than a car-load of
exploited “»p(«cifte«” that spell I

Three Poultry Troubles
Are Seasonal in Spring
During the heavy production pe
riod of the spring there are three
seasonal poultry troubles which
cause considerable concern to bird
owners. These are prolapsis, blood
spots in eggs, and bumble foot.
“For the past three weeks we
have had daily letters about one or
the other of these troubles,” says
Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the
State College poultry department.
“Prolapsis is always prevalent at
this season especially among high
producing birds. This trouble is in
dicated by a portion of the oviduct
extending from the vent and is
caused by heavy, continued laying
over a long period. It may be
caused by the delivery of an ex
ceptionally large egg. The condi
tion is not contagious but causes
much concern.”
Dearstyne says that any bird
suffering from prolapsis is immedi
ately attacked by the other hens
and will be killed unless removed
from the flock. Attempts to wash
1 the exposed part with a mild anti
septic solution will help and may
prevent continued attacks but is
not always successful. Isolation is
best and if the case is severe, the
bird should be placed on a grain
ration and fattened for eating.
Blood spots in eggs also cause
needless concern, Dearstyne says.
This is caused by a small blood
vessel rupturing while the egg is
being formed. The condition is
physical and is not contagious.
Eggs with such blood spots are not
unhealthy nor unsafe for eating.
The only way to determine whether
there are blood spots in eggs is to
candle them before marketing.
Bumble foot may be caused by
a bruise or a cut but the usual
cause at this season is heavy pro
duction and a depletion of the tis
sue vitality of the feet. If it be
comes chronic, there is nothing left
to do but to fatten the bird for
market or table. It is difficult to
cure this trouble.
Josephus Daniels
Praises Legion
Josephus Daniels, war-time Sec
retary of the Navy, editor of the
Raleigh News and Observer, and
newly appointed ambassador to
Mexico, in the following message
highly praises the American
Legion, and the stand the organiza
tion has taken in regard to the ad
ministration economy program.
The repeal of the veteran’s act, re
quested by the President, and the
new law which gives the Chief
Executive absolute power with few
limitations over the affairs of the
disabled, was followed by a pledge
of loyalty from the Legion and an
offer to aid the President in every
possible way.
Mr. Daniels writes: “This coun
try can never discharge the debt of
AratiJUflo—*y ° "xtrfr-etic men WHO
responqed to the call when the
United States entered the World
War. Tile American Legion seeks
to carry on their patriotic spirit in
the days of peace. Legionnaires
recognize that the problems of
peace call for the high wisdom and
courage demanded in war. Orga
nized devotion to the public weal
is sorely needed in these critical
days. The whole people look with
confidence to the Legion to put de
motion to country first as they did
in 1917-18. They have been a bul
wark to true Americanism, and in
any hour when brave men are
needed in peace or war, they are
a sure defense against open or
secret) foes. I believe, with Secre
tary Baker, that ‘the Legion is the
greatest potential force for good in
America.’ ”
