Today Your Liver and Brain. More Hohensollems ? How to Fight Ford. How to Dodge Lightning. ^ By ARTHUR BRISBANE J Dr. Crile of Cleveland, one of America’s ablest doctors, tella the surgical congress in London that man is a machine in which the brain and liver do the important work. The liver plays “the fore most part,” and its effects on the brain are immediately apparent. The human body is an electric ma chine, with the brain as positive and the liver as negative poles. Don’t let this frighten you into the belief that you are a machine without a soul. Gas tank and magneto are as important in auto mobiles as brain and liver in your body. But the motor requires a driver—someone at the wheel. It’s the same with you. There’s a driver sitting inside your skull, or wherever the soul lives, and that rules. _ But Dr. Crile's statements con cerning the liver’s importance are true and important—especially important to those that absorb modern bootleg products that soon make the liver resemble a piece of worn-out rubber matting. The Crile statements take you back to old Bible writers, who taught that the bowels were the seat of our emotions and affec tions. The ancients of Greece also believed that the heart, liver, etc., were all important. As great a man as Aristotle believed that the brain was a cold mass, useful only to supply moisture for the eyes and nose. Germany, in England’s opinion, has reached the stage at which they give the patient oxygen as a last hope. But France says that Germany is in the pink of health and is holding back untold billions in gold out of sheer cussedness. England sends to America and other countries an important note requesting strictest secrecy. France’s constant cry is "pay me." The Institute of Economics at Washington, endowed by Carnegie with >2,000,000, reports that Ger many at present can pay nothing. It has paid, thus far, more than five thousand millions gold. Any body that can straighten out that tangle has ability. The Hohenzollerns are willing to try. Agitation for their return stirs Germany, and the former kaiser yields his rights to his oldest son. Wise ex-kaiser. Something tells him, perhaps, that the Ger mans have had enough of the fam ily that began as small money lenders in East Prussia and ended by leading to ruin and bankruptcy one of the most efficient nations on earth. If Germany ever again accepts Hohenzollern leadership, turning aside from its men of great ability to follow the accident of a mon grel royal birth, it will deserve whatever it gets. Tha|jpx-kiiser’s oldest son did fa*cm1. Mr. Cox, you probably have for gotten it, but he once ran, slowly, for president, says Ford won’t do because "he is an autocrat in in dustry.” That is not the way to fight Ford. An autocrat in in dustry that cuts prices and raises wages seems to the average man the right kind of an autocrat. To fight Ford tell the people that he has a new patent dollar, much better than the old, 10 times easier to make than Bryan’s silver dollar. That will interest those with a few of the dull old dollars stored away in savings bank or real estate. Or remind the people that Ford, never permitting any drastic change in his Ford model, would start all sorts of changes in Uncle ■lam’s old "model,” dating back to 1776. You can’t hurt Ford by attack ing his fortune or his power. The people approve both. But many of them will not approve a new fangled dollar, or too radical 'hanges in government. Older men especially disapprove .-iolent changes. Women are in luenced more by old than by young men, in their opinions, numorista to the contrary notwith ttanding. Frighten the old men and they will frighten the women /oters. Women will decide this 1924 election. Professor McArdle, who studies louds, lightning and such thhgs Tor Harvard university, tells you vhat to do when the lightning is lashing. If you are outdoors and ■an’t get under a roof, lie down >n the ground. Don’t stay on your feet or out n an open field when you see leavy black clouds coming up; get under cover. Don’t stand under a tree with thick leaves. Lightning selects your body for its passage to the earth. Don’t stand in an open doorway or at a window near a chimney. Lightning follows air currents. If you hang your wash on a metal clothesline, don’t touch it when the ightning flashes. Farmers should not tie cows and torses to a wire fence. The timid boy, by birth emperor of China, with everything taken from him but a generous income and a palace in the forbidden city, is a fugitive from the palace, driven out by a rebellion among the eunuchs. Those eunuchs, num bering 100, rebelled in western fashion, because some of their number were discharged. They became a part of the im perial establishment long ago, be cause they could be trusted to watch the emperor’s great collec tion of wives. A hundred seems a good many for one little wife and one or two assistant wives that the boy emperor is allowed to have, under modern conditions.

P. Buwalda of the geology department of the University of California as In many previous instances buildings were shaken down. Although the great San Andreas fault, from which the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 came, is the near est to these towns, professor Buwalda said It was difficult to determine with out more complete Information whether the shock came from this fault or from one of many sub sidiary faults in southern California.

Hugh Glass Episode to Be Perpetuated by Memorial Neihardt Club Will Dedicate Monument to Nebraska Trapper August 1,100 Years After He Braved Death to Crawl 200 Miles to Civilization Following Attack by Grizzly Bear. Neihardt club will dedicate a me mortal at the forks of the Grand river, In northwestern South Dakota, August 1, marking the beginning of the 200-mile crawl of Hugh Glass, Nebraska pioneer trapper immortal lzed by John H. Neihardt, poet laureate of Nebraska, in his "Song of Hugh Glass.” Glass crawl, tradi tion has it, began in 1923, end the ceremonies August 1 will mark the centennial anniversary of the famous episode. "We mean to mpke it an nltar of courage." asserts Mr. Neihardt, "We will take the cement with us—It will be a concrete marker—but wo will use the sand of the country.” The memorial will be a huge con crete altar tapering slightly from its foundation to a table-like top, on which, as part of the ceremonies, a fire will be kindled after the manner employed by Glass when he redis covered fire In the course of his crawl. To Perpetuate Episode. "We're going to put that monu ment there to stay.” declared the poet. "It will have a massive founda tion and will he immovable. The only way a person will be able to mar the bronze Inscription on the side will be by taking a hammer and chisel and going to It. "But who wants to do that?" he inquired. "We expect that people will take shots at it occasionally, though." Mr. Neihardt will act as mason while the others prepare the cement. The crawl of Hugh Glass Is one of the pioneer traditions of the early days of Nebraska. Glass was the best hunter and trapper In Major Henry'a troop of 80 men that eet out west from the Grand river bound for Yellowstone to found a trading post. In 1833. Glass was sent ahead of the party to hunt. At the forks of the Grand, he was suddenly beset, by an enraged grizzly that tore off hie face with its savage claws, crushed in his chest, broke his leg and left him in a dying state. Companions Nurse Him. The party behind found him thus and, unable to delay their march to care for him, since the country was alive with hostile reds, they left two men behind to nurse him, one of them, Jimmie, Glass’ best friend and boon companion, and the other a nondescript trapper whose aid was purchased with gold. The latter fellow, as the days went by, turned ’’yellow” and finally by a series of clever ruses preyed upon Jimmie to abandon his friend and flee for his own life from the Indians. Unwilling. Jimmie finally conceded to desert Glass. In leaving the multl lated man, the other trapper, un known to Jimmy, availed himself of Glass' flint and steel and gun. After a long period of unconscious ness, Hugh Glass awoke and found himself devoid of the barest neces sities of life. He saw from the tracks about him that his troop had left him behind to die and he became bitter, resolving to live that he might kill Jimmie for leaving him. Crawls to Civilisation. By superhuman effort he managed to live until hls wounds had healed, leaving him horribly mutilated. Then he set out to crawl the entire dis tance of 200 miles to Fort Kiowa, north of the present town of cham berlain, S. D., in order to avenge hlm selm on Jimmie, The black rage that had eaten into hls heart spurred him on to super endurance. A broken knife blade he found In a deserted Indian camp served him as a steel to strike a spark from the crude flint he found In a stream bed and the resulting fire preserved hia life during the cold months of winter. Finally he reached civilisation and In due time found Jimmie, who had been left blind when he fired the gun obtained from his trapper companion, unknowing that It had been pilfered from Glass, and It exploded In hls face. So overjoyed was Glass at see ing hls friend once more that he could not do the deed that was In hls heart and the two friends were re united. The MacMillan Publishing compsny has printed the ’’Song of Hugh Glass” and "The Song of Three Friends," In the new Modern Reader's series of American Classes which will be used In the public schools. 1.0.0.

Gunboat Fights Battle With Chinese By AmrUIrd Press. *“ London, July 23.—Previous to the recent capture of Wuchow by the constitutionalists the United States gunboat Painpanga, while patrolling the West river, protect ing American interests, was fired on by artillery and rifles at Dos« lng, 27 miles below Wuchow, by Kwangsi troops, although the ship was flying two large Ameri can flags. It la the first time In the history of the West river that an American gunboat has been fired on. The Pampanga, In self defense, was forced to return the fire of the attackers. Some difficulty was experienced in maneuvering the ship. The action lasted about 1U minutes. There were no American casualties. An apology for the attack was demanded by Lieut. Leland P. Ix>vett, commander of the gun boat, and given by the Chinese. Lieutenant Lovett last week brought peace 18 this section of China for the first time In many months by acting ns an Interme diary between the forces of Sun Yat-Sen, southern constitutional ist leader, and the Kwangsi army under Hhutn Hung Ying.

July 23.—President Harding came to Alaska with an open mind concerning his Alaskan policy and he is going out today after a 15 days’ tour a strong conservatism When he entered the territory there was a well-defined division of opinion among the Americans accompanying over the cabinet on his policies, par ticularly whether control over the great territory should be vested in a single department. Secretary of the Interior Work be lieved it should and favored the De partment of the Interior having com plete domination of everything from forests to seals. Secretary of Agri culture Wallace strongly opposed this and apparently has won his fight. At any rate control of the vast- territorial forests will continue to be vested in the Agricultural de partment where they have been while the Interior and War departments will continue their extlsting spheres. Convinced of Unwisdom. The fortnight's visit to all of the principal cities and conversations with Innumerable territorial prom lnents, has convinced President Hard ing of the unwisdom and unfeasibil ity of giving Alaska to any single agency of the government. To do so would not only have met with de termined opposition In congress but also would have invited a repetition of the old conservationist fight that helped to wreck the Taft administra tion. The conservationists, now headed by Secretary Wallace and Col. W. H.

Chamber of Commerce Adopts Wheat Slogan (OnliniMMl From F«cc One.) slbllUy for their affairs, and our present attitude tends to discourage foreign trade relations. Existing rates of exchange, too, go far to make such trading unprofitable nnd unsatisfactory. In the present emergency, we must rely chiefly on our home market. In 30 days, our own people could work out a peaceful revolution in the price of any commodity. All that is nec essary is an aroused public sentiment and intelligent co-operation. Tho plight of the farmer requires pitiless publicity. The public should be made to understand that of late he has been bearing more than his share of the burdens of life. We should bear our fair share of these burdens. We cannot all buy a thou sand bushels of wheat, but we can buy a bag or a barrel of flour, and we can do It now. In every home and hamlet In the land there Is a potential purchasing power, which should be exercised without delay. Aid of Chambers Urged. Chambers of commerce throughout the country ought to make an active effort to relieve the situation. They have responsibilities to the public which nannot be ignored. By such unselfish service they would mate rially increase their present prestige and power. The appeal to the public will be pressed to the limit. Omaha Is one of the greatest primary grain markets in the world, and Nebraska is one of the great grain producing states. We are directly and vitally Interested. The movement, however, should have the enthusiastic support of every loyal citizen, and every financial, commer cial and industrial organization—east, west, north and south. Let the slogan be: "Buy a thousand or morp bushels of wheat or a bag or barrel of flour. The Federation of Nebraska Retail ers, through its executive secretary, C. W. Watson, transmitted to J. David Larson, commissioner of the Omaha Chamber of Commerce, a let ter in which it was stated that the executive committee of the associa tion will meet this week to consider the wheat and flour buying campaign and expressing a desire to be in ac cord with ail other organizations iden tified with this movement. Aid Is Volunteered. Marshall Brothers of Fremont wrote for Information on the campaign. The Miller Cereal mills of this city sent the committee a letter stating that the company will extend free-hand ling, insurance and storage charges on wheat with a reservation to par ticipate in any profit on a 50-50 basis. The M. C. Peters company offered to furnish storage for 25.000 bushels of wheat free until December. The Billing Dental Supply company wrote that the campaign which has had its impetus in Omaha will materially Im prove business conditions and stated that (he company will be responsible for the purchase of 1,000 bushels of wheat. W. J. Coad of the committee stressed the importance of increasing the consumption of flour and referred to a movement in Minneapolis to pro mote the increase,! use of bread.

George A. Roberts, another member of the commltte* and himself a grain man, explained that any firm at the Omaha Grain exchange will handle orders for either cash wheat to he stored, or for future delivery as the purchaser may want it. He added that members of grain exchanges and boards of trade of other cltiea will handle orders In a similar manner, subject to the regular commission. Mr. Robers stated that the close of the market yesterday indicated a steady condition, particularly for a Monday when 1,020 car’s were offered at the opening on the Chicago market. The committee decided to communi cate with each commercial club In Nebraska and enlist Its co operation. Iowa (-indorses Plan. J. M. Gillan, agricultural commis sioner of the Chamber of Commerce, reported on his visit to Sidney, Neb., on Sunday. He stated that a meeting will he held on Wednesday noon at Sidney to support the wheat and flour buying campaign, and In the evening a meeting of bankers and business men will be held. The Oma ha committee was requested to send a speaker to Sidney. Mr. Gillan re ported the crops in the Sidney district are in excellent condition. George H. Gutru of Newman Grove State bank wrote to the committee this idea: “Would it be advisable to interest the Federal Reserve bants in the mlddlwest to encourage a ‘Hold your wheat campaign' by more liberal policy of loans on agricultural paper, such as wheat In farmers’ hands or storage receipts?"
