Argentine Paper Urges Use of Wheat for Fuel Present [trices for wheat anil corn have become so low tlint it is being seriously considered to use a large part of the available crops for fuel la power plants and factories. Much of this produce is already being used thus around Rosario for domestic purposes. In some parts of the coun try planters cannot afford to harvest their grain, Inasmuch ns the prices obtainable for it would not pay for the labor involved. Corn now is quoted on most of the Argentine markets at 3.G0 paper pesos a quintal (100 kilograms, or 220.5 pounds) and at this rate is a cheaper fuel than wood or coal, be sides being almost equally satisfac tory for the generation of heat and power.—I .a Naeion, Buenos Aires.

MORRIS FISHREIN 1 ftdltor, Journal of the American Medical Association, and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine Before giving advice to the Aged as to the conduct of their lives It may be well to recognize somewhat their economic condi tions. It is estimated by Dublin, statistician of a famous life insur ance company, that 1,250,000 persons In the United States who have reach sd the age of 65 are in want and are supported by charity, public and private. This means that 28 per cent or more than one out of every four are dependant. It has long been known that re tirement not infrequently has has tened the death of the aged. A suc cessful business man, when relieved of the usual life and caused to re sort to idle luxury, tends to degen erate rapidly. Every trifling ail ment begins to receive his undi vided attention. The mental atti tude is Important. Sir Humphrey Rolleston says that "a well-occupied mind, a happy disposition that thinketh no evil, naturally smiles Instead of frowning on a stranger or a new idea, free from anger hatred and Jealousy, the vice that gives no pleasure to any one, and an attitude of charity in its origi nal and best sense to all, tend to prolong life and make it a happy healthy prelude to crossing the bar." Thus one may point out that dignitaries of the church, chief just ices on supreme court benches, prime ministers, and those of simi lar professions whose activities are prolonged tend to live longer than others. Apparently the most important advice for attaining and prolonging old age has to do with the diet. A half-dozen proverbs attest the man ner in which men have aooepted this fact. “You dig your grave with your teeth”; “Man does not die, h« kills himself,” and best of all Hoo sier former: “Pigs would' live a lot longer if they didn’t make hogs ol themselves.” An investigation madi by one life insurance company re vealed that 13 per cent of some thousands of policyholders beyond the age of 40 were more than 20 per cent overweight. Persona at this age have usually stopped tak ing even the physical exercise of walking. Since it is impossible for us to choose our parents, all that we can do toward the prolongation of life is to avoid reventable diseases by the usual sanitary and hygienic pre cautions and by having physical ex aminations at least once each year to detect the presence of the dis eases of middle life that come on insiduously. Avoid worry since It is of the greatest importance in using up the inherent vitality. 'Moderation in all things, a certain amount of mental and physical ex ercise, some time in the open air, and a reasonable amount of happi ness—these constitute the prescrip- , tion for a long life and a useful one. Sez Hugh: i Vr} he HUNTING season is just another wild goose chase' Now We Dominate England. Prom the St. Paul Dispatch. Charges of the London Daily Mail that the fall of the MacDon ald government and establishment of a new national administration were dictated by United States bankers advances the interesting theory that history not only repeats but reverses itself. Complaints against Wall street ‘'ultimatums" and ‘‘dictation’’ to the Labor min istry are in the same spirit, if not the same words, as colonial protests against "taxation without repre sentation.” London liberals object ing to the selection of their govern ment by New York bankers are in little different circumstances from New Englanders declaiming against the British agents sent by the crown to preside over their des tinies. London and not Philadelphia may be the scene of the next Dec laration of Independence in Anglo American relations, and Wall strpet may be presented with as lengthy a list of grievancea as was King George. If London cannot protest, as did the colonials, against the en WOULDN’T FEED GUESTS Pittsburg — Probably John K.

Complaints, peti tions and objections now emanate from London, and if the Daily Mail is correct, the orders are given, and not received, on this side the water. A cargo of American wheat dump*d into the harbor at Liverpool would complete the setting. It is to be ( hoped hat Wall street will deal with its “colonies” more skillfully than did King George III. -»« WHEN THE LAST CANDLE BURNS When the last candle burns on your birthday cake. As the flame flickers faint and low, And its comrades have melted like years, my friend, Leaving memory instead of glow. You may wonder if another year— my friend, For you,, will one more taper light, Than the ones that graced youi natal tribute, when They shone like stars on frost gem bright. As twilight darkens in the west— my friend, With his lamp man views the work of day. When your sun is setting, this can dle—my friend, Then will search your life with its last ray.

From the Pathfinder. Statistics prepared by the Brus sels government allow that the Bel gian people are short in stature. The figures reveal that 39 per cent of the population of Belgium ranges in height from 4 feet 3 inches to 5 feet 3. The next 69 per cent are also short, their heights ranging up to a maximum of 5 feet 7 inches. Only 2 per oeni, of th« population is taller than that MOON DOES NOT RULE WEATHER Paris —(UP)— The Abbe Moreau, director of the Observatory of Bourges, and famous as a prophet of good and evil days, has declared that the influence of the moon was practically negligible in its effects on the weather. "The moon has no connection with changes in the atmosphere, which cause areas of depression, winds, rain and the extremes of temperature,” the Abbe said; “all that it affects on earth is the ris ing and falling tides.” The venerable Abbe asserted, however, that both the ancients and not a few modern students believe that there are indications given by the moon which bear a close relation to weather predic tion. "We only have to cite the words of General Bugeaud, the conquer or of Isley, contained in one of his letters dated Nov. 29. 1841," the Abbe pointed out. "General Bu geaud wrote, ‘Eleven times out of twelve the weather during any lunar month can be Judged by the 5th day; that is, if the 6th day re sembles the 5th, and it being clear, the rest of the month will be more or less the same. If the 6th day is compared to the 4th day, the pre diction comes true nine times out of twelve.” The Abbe Moreau observed, however, that not only General Bugeaud wrote of this prediction, but said that it was known to the ancieuts, particularly to Virgil, who had mentioned it In the First Book of his Georgies. The ancients believed that the 4th day of the new moon was in dicative, and they believed it was an infallible sign, based on long observation. Pliny the Elder wrote, accord ing to Abbe Moreau, "In Egypt it is observed that the 4th day of the new moon must be taken as an in dication. If the lunar body shows Itself clear on the fourth day, fine weather will continue throughout the month.” Cupid’s Aide Declares Gin Marriage Law Works San Francisco —(UP)— Cali fornia’s “gin mariage” law has achieved its purpose, in this city at least, according to Grant (Cupid) Munson, license clerk, who has been smoothing the path of love for 25 years. Designed to prevent hasty mar riages, through the influence of gin, or otherwise, by enforcing a three-day delay between applica tion and issuance of marriage li censes, the iaw has enabled many to chanke their minds, Munson said. He disclosed that there is a wide discrepancy between the number of applications made and the number of licenses called for and issued. Not all of these, how ever, are due to a change of heart, according to Munson. Some, he said are due to a misunderstanding of the law, couples believing they can obtain a license here and b# married in another county. -M . Q. E.

Craig walked into Jail here recently and explained that his conscience was bothering him because he passed a $20 short check in Providence, Ky., some time ago.

Millions of mothers know about California Fig Syrup from experi ence. A Western mother, Mrs, J. G. Moore, 119 Cliff Ave., San Antonis, Texas, says: “California Fig Syrup Is certainly all that's claimed for It. I have proved that with my little Dorothy. She was a bottle bnby and very delicate. Her bowels were weak. I started her on Fig Syrup when she was a few months old and It regulated her, quick. I have used It with her ever since for colds and every little set-back and her wonder ful condition tells better than words how It helps." Don't be imposed on.

Resented What Seemed Slur on “Profession” When a motion picture happens to center on some particular profession, a certain Los Angeles exhibitor makes it a point to give special per fomances for those to whom the pic ture might be of especial interest. The doctors of the city were his guests at the showing of “Doctors’ Wives” and the newspaper people when "Front Page” was booked. One day this manager was sitting in bis office when two rough looking men brushed the attendant aside and confronted him. “Listen, feller, what's the big Idea?” one of them wanted to know. “Every time you got a picture about some kind of a profession, you invite them people to see it free.” "Well, what’s wrong with that?” “Ain't nothing wrong with it.
