In reading about artistis, “and singers in particular, outlined in ‘Musical America’,” it behooves every one of us, be we artists or just plain every-day folks, in these strenuous times, for our health’s sake to follow the rules laid down for these concert stars. Here they are: “No cigarette smoking because it roughens the throat. No alcoholic beverages. No midnight parties during work ing season. Early rising, because the mind is free and more keen for concentrated study. ' Lots of fresh air, because oxygen is n nerve calmer. Walk briskly on account of the good stimulation. No loud talking or laughing on the day you sing. Rest, because it is very vital for poise. Keep away from annoying, trouble some conversation on the day you sing. Keep your mind carefree, bright and happy. f Eat dark gread. it is more whole some and digestible than white bread. Avoid sweets, rich pastries, ice cream also is bad. Light supper three hours before singing; choose easily degiested food. Do not mix milk and acids. Avoid speaking on train because of ”001 dust. If not. damp and raining when on tour, take brisk turn on platform whon train stops long enough. If possible, ride backwards, for it less trying on the eves. • Keen your mind off the length of th« trip; it hns to be done. Instead of Coue, if he does not suit your case, try common sense or anv science which makes von forgetful of self and your cares.

Notice To Readers Of Star In Shelby The Star has- decided to give its subscribers who are served by our boy carriers in Shelby until Tues day evening February 5th to re new at the rate of $2.00 per year. After that date the paper by car rier will be strictly $2.50 per year. This is a slight increase (2c per month) and is brought about by the increase in the delivery service. We have been forced to put on four carrier boys in Shelby in order to handle the papers yvith * dispatch and give better service to our sub scribers or send the papers through the postoffice at 1 cent per copy. If they were sent through the postoffice it would cost us $1.04 per year for postage on each sub scription, which is prohibitive. Please renew between now and Tuesday and get the benefit of the $2 a year rate. After that date the price by carrieitJn Shelby will be $2.50. A statement has been mail ed all subscribersSn Shelby. if you have a box at the post office and get your other mail there, we can change your paper from carrier to postoffice and con tinue if, through the office for $2 per year, but if you have your other mail sent to your home through the postoffice carriers (J. A. Weaver or W. O. R. Putnam) the Dostoffice will not let these U. S. Carriers deliver them and they must be delivered by The Star’s 'own carrier boys. Please let us know at once which, service you want, the postoffice service at $2 or The Star carrier service at $2.50, but remember the postoffice won’t serve you with The Star unless you go to the office for all your mail.

The old rate of $2 continues by mail. RUSH STROUP Attorney at Law Royster Building Phone 514. They are standardized in order to bring about uni form therapeutic efficiency to the patient whenever required. This efficiency is most needed in the sick room—not merely in the laboratory. f What is true of drugs must be true of foods. Purity and efficiency in the can is only part of the problem —purity and efficiency in the kitchen is the true test. The law requires that baking power contain 12% leavening gas at the time of sale to the consumer. This measure insures uniform leavening efficiency and protects the health of the public In order to comply with this fixed jreandard for bak ing powder, manufacturers must produce and pack their product so as to avoid the deterioration which . may result from absorption of atmospheric moisture. Baking Powder manufacturers to avoid violation of the law, also spend thousands of dollars yearly in testing grocers’ stocks and removing "spent” goods from his shelves, in spite of the fact that every pos sible precaution had previously been taken against deterioration. With the exception of Texas, the pure food laws are not applied to bak ing powder mixed with flour at the mill and sold in bags as “Self Rising Flour.” There is no penalty on the manufacturers if this fails to “self * rise”—the consumer is the “goat”—he is the one that pays the penalty through indigestion and ill health that comes from eating bakings that are not properly raised. The standardization of baking powder is a pro tection to both the consumer and the manufacturer—who welcome such laws and co-opcrates in every v/ay possible. .But l Not so with the self rising flour manufacturer—he resents such laws and fights such legislation. Why? Because a standardization of self ris ing flour would require pioisture-proof containers instead of cheap saexs —because low grade “clears” could no longer be sold as “fancy patent * flour.” It would also mean he mutt maintain expert chemical control such as is now maintained by baking powder manufacturers.
