FURRED TONGUE NO PROOF
Why It Is Supposed to Indicate Diges
tive Disturbance Never Has Been
Explained.
Just why a furred tonguo Is sup
posed to bo an Indication of a dis
turbance of tbo digestive apparatus
has never been explained. Tho Medi
cal Record calls to mind "tho respected
(and feared) spinster in our commu
nity a good many years ago who had
her own opinion about doctors. Urged
to consult ono of their fraternity
when a llttlo indisposed, she would ro
pel tho suggestion with scorn. 'All
they do,' sho would say, 'is to say,
"Lot'B seo your tongue. Ilow'a your
bowelB? Two dollars, please
Tho editor says ho has known physi
cians of tho old school who could dl
agnoso a case by looking at tho
tongue, Just as ho has known a physi
cian who could "dlagnoso" a case
of pneumonia in a child ho had novor
seen boforo when ho got ten feet away
from tho bed. And what la more, ho
could tell which side it was on and
even deslgnato tho lobo affected in
Bomo cascfl."
Of courso this Is sarcasm. Tho ed
itor Is ridiculing tho furred tonguo as
a symptom of trouble in tho digestive
apparatus.

A Man's

And when you skirmish

to a remarkable degree on
the food one eats.
For highest accomplish

Grape-Nuts

Will Reduce Baggage Rates
Tho Rock Island railroad has
agreed to comply with tho request of
tho state railway commission to re
duco Its rates on excess baggage In
Nebraska. Some of tho officials of the
road denied, at first that It had in
creased such rates. They alleged that
tho charge had been 16 per cent
of the passenger faro ever since 1007.
This amounted, however, to a confes
sion that an Increase had been auto
matically mado when the federal court
allowed tho company to increase lta
passenger faro from 2 cents to 3
cents a mile. When tho 2-cent faro
law went into effect in Nebraska the
railroads were charging fixed rates
ffor excess baggage. Then they
changed to a percentage basis of tho
passenger fare. The Rock Island
since that time has been charging
16 per cent of tho passenger fare.
This rate was not changed when tho
federal court recently permitted the
Rock Island to increase its passenger
fare in Nebraska, and tho percentage
basis of charging for excess baggage
consequently caused nn Increase.
How Dry Ballot Will Appear.
After conferring with representa
tives of tho Nebraska dry federation
and receiving their approval, Attor
ney General Reed has certified to tho
secretary of state tho title and word
ing for tho prohibitory constitutional
amendment as it will appear on tho
ballot next November. Tho law pro
vides that initiated propositions shall
be printed tit tho top of tho ballot,
preceding party circles.
Here Is the way tho proposition will
show up on tho bnllot: "Proposed by
initiative potition. Constitutional
amendment prohibiting thomanufne
turo, salo and keeping for sale or bar
tor, malt, spirituous or vinous liquors."
Attorney General Heed, tho stato
railway commission nnd Attorney J
A. C. Kennedy for tho railroad com
pany have agreed on Frank II. Gnlnea
of Omaha, as refereo to tako testimony
and mnko findings to tho fcdornl court
In the Missouri Pnclflc 3-cent faro in
junction suit. Tho federal court Bomo
tlmo ago issued a temporary injunc
tion enabling tho rallrond company to
colloct this rato from its patrons, nnd
It is now doing so, except between
competitive points, whoro It charges
tho samo as other lines.
Distribution of Harvest Hands,
Tho stato department of labor is
sending out blanks to wheat raisers
and tlioso In a position to mnko a
fairly accurato cstlmato of tho con
dition of grain. Theso blanks aro sent
to each county In tho state. Informa
tion is requested as to condition of
grain as compared with last year dur
ing tho month of Juno, tho number of
harvest field workers used last year,
tho probable number of oxtra men
needed this year, tho prevailing wngo
last year and tho probablo wago this
year.
Treasurer Hall Defendant In Suit.
Food Commissioner Harman, whoso
department has chargo of tho Inspec
tion of weights and measures all over
tho stato oxcept In tho larger cities,
believes that, as a general thing, tho
measuring pumps by which oil firms
sell gasollno to nutomobllo owners nnd
users glvo purchaser tho full amount
that ho pays for. Thcso pumps, says
Harman, hnvo been under Inspection
right along. Occasionally ono Is found
thnt runs short meneuro, and In every
such instance it is either corrected or
condemned.

Frank II. Woodland, class of 1D01),
of Omaha, was elected president of
tho University of Nebraska alumni at
Its recent swtdon hold in Lincoln.
Ho succeeds N. '.. Snoll of Lincoln.

Holds Serum Law Unconstitutional.
Because the hog cholera serum law
passed by the legislature of lfMfi tendi
to create n monopoly and because It
porvontH a farmer from treating his
own hogs or a veterinarian from pur
chasing soium with which to treat hogs
of those who employ blni. tho not has
boon declared unconstitutional and
void In an opinion b tho supremo
court of Nebraska, announced Satur
day. Tills decision Is given In the test
suit fiom Douglas county, whoie C. C.
Hall was lined $.10 and costs because
he sold serum without llrst obtaining
a federal license from the department
of ngrietilturo of n stale penult from
tho llo stock sanitary board, and with
out having given n bond for ?r.,000 as
requited by the state law. Another
count of the Infoimatlon alleged that
the salo was unlawful because tho
bottle contained no price mark.
In construing the I'nlted States
serum lam, tho opinion by Judge llnmcr
bays It is apparent that government
licenses aro required, not by poisons
who may bo engaged merely In the
salo of scrum, but by those manufac
turing It. The Nebraska law, by limit
ing the sale of serum to those holding
government licenses, is construed to
glvo the maniifactuiers a monopoly on
the business, and for that reason Is
declared to have the effect of fosterinp
a monopoly.
Expenses Were Less This Year
In tho first flvo months of 1016, tbo
state government nnd institutions of
Nebrnska wcro administered for $217,
000 less than in tho s.imo period n
year ago. The 1015 period included
tho outgo for legislative salaries and
expenses, but docs not account for all
of the difference.
The policy pursued by stnto ofllclals
in holding down expenditures nnd giv
ing tho people tho benclit In tho way
of reduced stuto taxes Iiub cut down
tho disbursements of tho state treas
ury about $12,000 to 115,000 per month,
in addition to the money saved by not
having a session of the legislature this
year.
State Auditor Smith's statement for
May shows that In that month this
year tho warrants Issued by his oirice
totaled $370,481, while in May a year
ago the amount was $455,775, being a
dlffercnco of $85,000 in favor of this
year.
For tho first five months of 1915
tho warrants issued came to a total
of $2,286,013. In tho first five months
of tho current year, tho outgo has been
held down to $2,069,340.

Attorney General Reed has filed nn
nnswer in the supremo court to an
application of the Standard Oil com
panv nnd other oil companies for a
writ of mandamus to require the stato
treasurer to permit tho uso of $12ri,
000 of fees In tho treasury for tho pay
ment of oxpenscs of the oil Inspection
department before newly collected
fees aro used for such expenses. Tho
nttornoy general, representing Stato
Treasurer Hall resists tho application
by alleging tho fees have not been ap
propriated by tho legislature for such
uso; that tho stato treasurer does not
know what pnrt of tho $125,000 was
derived from oil Inspection fees nnd
what part from food, drug nnd dairy
fcos; that tho food and oil commis
sioner has sovcral thousand dollars of
fees In his hands which will bo miffl
dent to pay running expenses; that the
companies hnvo no legal right to mnln
tain this action.

Ono medical nutcomo of tho war Is
tho discovery that sphagnum moss nnd
lino snwdust aro excellent substitutes
for absorbent cotton as dressings for
wounds. Tho moss is tho long-llbered
kind commonly found In swampy
places In this country thnt florists nnd
nurserymen uso for protecting tho
roots of plants during shipment. It
takoB up moisture better than absorb
ent cotton and docs not grow sodden
bo quickly. Of courso both tho moss
nnd tho sawdust aro sterilized before
they aro used for dressings. Youth's
