Spy in Russia
Slept in Tomb
Englishman Tells C. of Cl. Wo
men of Experiences in
Soviet Land.
Can an Englishman turn Russian?
Is it advisable? The answer to the
first is, "Yes, for a time." It has been
done. To the second Sir Paul Dukes
\ ould reply, "not exactly." lie ehould
know; he has tried it, and succeeded
fairly well.
Sir Paul Dukes, addressing the wo
men's division of the Omaha Chamber
of Commerce last night, did not give
tlie impression of one who had slept
in soggy bogs, gone hungry for days,
served In the red army, and at one
time marched in a communist parade
to celebrate the "world revolution."
Sir Paul had lived in Russia for
11 years when the order deporting
nil foreigners came.
"Of course I went along with the
rest, there was really nothing else to
lie done,” he said with an expressive
shrug.
"For a time it looked like an im
possible venture, but I finally suc
ceeded. One of m.v false teeth came
out. This added to my disguise.
AVith my hair grown over my neck
and ears 1 was a regular red.
"Slipping over the Finnish frontier
with the help of the soldiers who at
that time were at war with Russia,
I made my way to Petrograd. It was
about as easy to get fodd there then
ns it is to get a certain beverage here
now.
"In every house X went I had a
different name, a matter of precau
tion. Frequently red secret police
searched houses which fell under sus
picion for little or no reason. I left
on® home because of this disturbing
habit of the police. In the next place
I escaped only by playing an idiot,
which I can do rather well.
“In the red army we got more to
eat. Many of the ezarist officers
were forced to see their wives and
children sent to a concentration
camp. They would rather have their
dear ones shot.
“AVhen I decided to desert the army
I slept in a hog one night, hut that
was ton uneomfnrtahle. The next
four nights I had a good place to
sleep—it was In a tomb in a ceme
tery.
“There Is only a. small portion of
the red army which is hark of
Trotsky. Of the 150.000.an0 Russian
people, only about 400,000 are hoi
sheviks. This is about one-third of
1 per cent, one bolshevik for 300
Russians.
“There will he a split in the Russian
government, now that Benin, its har
monizing element, is gone. But the
peasant is becoming enlightened and
will some day win out.”

St. Valentines Day and Leap Year Offer Double Excuse
for Maidens to Shower Longings Upon Hearts' Desires

"I »111 h girl after your own heart;
Please he my valentine.”
Tile picture accompanying the verao
is that of girl with freckles on her
nose, Tint wholesome and demure.
Cprtalnly looks like a leap year val
entine! And only 6 cents, girls!
In fact. Valentine day goods In the
stores take cognizance of the fact
that this is leap year. Here's another,
accompanying a picture of a good
looking young cook In the kitchen:
"If just an ordinary maid,
S«y. aueh n maid as I,
Should ask fo be your valentine.
Now what would you reply."
Another reads:
"To the most polite man in the
world:
Pardon me, hilt will you he my val
entine."
And another, spoken by a maid:
“My w hole affection is set upon you;
Please say you like me a little bit,
too.”
Of course, being a girl's valentine
doesn’t necessarily mean being her
husband. But would a girl ask a fel
ler to he her valentine if she weren't
more than half willing to go Into life
partnership with him? Me-bhy! Mebby
not!
But, oh. the hearts that are fairly
bursting with yearning for other
hearts! Oh, the dreams of Mins with
some particular being of the opposite
sex! Oh, the heartache when that
other being doesn't respond. Afcd, oh,
the torture when, alas, the other be
ing perhaps is charmed with someone
eise.
Opportunity KnorUs.
Valentine day gives an opportunity
for the expression of these longings.
A little verse, a healthy hint, two
red hearts dripping blood where they
have been pierced with the same ar
row, Cupids, cherubs, forget-me-nots!
What could be sweeter? What, In all
the world is half so sweet ns love's
young dream? And love is always
young.
But not all valentines sre pretty
though they outnumber the ugly
ones, 100 to 1. The burlesque val
entines, printed In colors, on cheap
paper are still with us, though in de
creased numbers.
Not one person In 100 rails for a
comic valentine, but here they are
for those that do, with their funny
pictures and their "doggy” verses, j
Look:

Anil wails of gum you chew;

Isn't that mean, girls? And hers's
one for those who knock ths little
balls around the fields:
tiolf Hug.
Innr style of pulling on tho green,
Your driving off a tee
would makn a dandy "movie” scene
Entitled "Hugs is lie.”
And this frightful picture of a
pedagogue:

Oh, how we love our teacher!
She knows more than the hooks;
Hut if the truth were known,
She's as foolish as she looks.
The encyclopedia describes Valen
tine as ' a little known saint snd mar

Doesn't that make you laugh?

Why do
Chiropractors
use the word
USt insteadof t
Chiropractors use the
word "adjustment” in
stead of "treatment” be
cause the word "adjust” exactly
expresses what they do. It
means “to make accurate; to
bring into a true relative posi
tion.” As chiropractors employ
it, it means to correct the posi
tion of a vertebra which is out of
alignment, so that it assumes its
proper relation with the verte
brae above and below.
To “treat” means; “The ap
plication or giving of remedies
for the cure of disease; medical
or surgical care of a patient.”
Illustration may further clar
ify the distinction between these
words:
To soften hard water you
treat it with borax or some other
chemical—you do not adjust it.
However, if your carburetor is
not working right you adjust it;
you do not treat it.
Hie chiropractor applies no
remedy, mpdicine, liniment, lo
tion or any other thing designed
1n act upon the disease or the
diseased organ. He merely cor
rects a mechanical obstruction
which ha* acted as a hindrance
to nature’s efforts to “treat” the
disease. All treatment is ap
plied by the natural forces of the
patient himself. That is why
Chiropractic results are real and
permanent.
If a patient with an acid
stomach calls upon a physician,
the doctor prescribes a drug to
neutralize chemically the acid
condition; he uses an alkali, as a
rule. A chiropractor, caring for
the same patient, would find the
? DEFINITION ^
The practice of Chiropractic
consists of the palpation
! and adjustment,with the hands,
of the movable aegmenta of tha
! spinal column to normal post
„ tion for the purpose of reieaa- ^
^^nt^thejimonedjmpulse^^l
vertebral subluxation which is
pressing upon the nerves lead
ing to the stomach, through
which the “power within” con
trols the secretion of acid in the
stomach glands, and would ad
just this vertebra so as to re
lieve the pressure and permit
nature once more to bring about
a proper chemical proportion in
the gastric juice.
Thus it is evident that tho
chiropractor cannot bo said to
“treat.” for the fundamental
fact upon which the science of
Chiropractic is based is that
there is an intelligence within
which builds, controls, repairs
and adapts the body to the re
quirements of life, by means of
mental impulses, which it sends
through the nervous system.
Not a muscle moves, not a
gland secretes, not one of the
functions of nutrition, breath
ing, circulation, etc., is carried
on except through vital foi-ce, or
mental impulse. It is the Chiro
practic theory that the power
which heals the body’s wounds,
mends its broken bones and
adapts it perfectly to its en
vironment is self-sufficient—cap
able beyond all the wisdom of
man. According to Chiropractic
teaching all that is necessary for
the restoration of health to dis
eased organs, is to open the lines
of communication and allow the
normal power again to flow
through. This requires nothing
but an adjustment, and the fact
that Chiropractic succeeds where
other methods have failed should
rommend it to thoughtful, in
telligent people.
The word “adjust” indicates
the difference between Chiro
practic and all other methods.
It is the difference between find
ing the primary cause and cor
recting it, and "treating” effects
of that cause for temporary re
lief or for the suppression of
symptoms.
