DOCTOR LINDBERGH
Heart trouble among women is a subtle thing. Women's hearts say one thing and their lips another, but at last a method of diagnosis of cardiac allment has presented itself most unexpectedly. It is the Linderboden method. The flaw of it though, is that it will not hast more than a few weeks, for "Mindy" can be engaged only once for the first time; and the newness of its fleetingly transient
But the diagnosis! The procedure is simple. One need only remark that "Lindy" is going to be married, and all the women present will have their comments to make. A careful examination of these more or less casual remarks will give the clue to the heart condition of the speaker. If the subject being diagnosed replies that she thinks it is about time she was getting married to some fine girl—if that is the reply, the subject is married, completely married with no chance of escape. If the subject replies, "Oh! why could not he waited?" the subject's heart is not yet lost to anyone, but she is still worshipping that hero-ideal whom she trusts will appear some day.
If the subject speaks up quickly with "Yes, he was quite a hero, but you know, I think that lots of girls would not even like him" watch out. The heart of this subject is still her own, but dangerously near to being lost somewhere. If the subject should reply a bit disappointed, "Not that too bad? Now he will not be half as romantic a fellow." This subject has lost her heart, all right, and she has gained another, but she is not quite sure of its fidelity. She is in thou doubtful, romantic stage of love.
If anyone doubts the practicability of the Lindbergh heart diagnosis method, he should try it out and prove its worth for himself, but try it, remember before the news of his engagement comes to be news.
ARMS
A resolution is pending in the Senate providing for an embargo on the shipment of arms to a country violating the Kellogg peace treaty. At present, the president has the power to place an embargo against arms shipments to countries in the Western hemisphere where there is a domestic disturbance, and to other countries where the United States enjoys extraterritorial privileges—such as in China.
The principle involved in such a resolution is in keeping with our peace policy. It would make the treaty more effective by making it impossible for warring nations to secure arms from the United States, Again, it would increase the president's power in dealing with international relations. But is such a plan practicable? Other countries would sell armies to them and our efforts would be useful in addition to harming our export trade. Then, would it be right to place an embargo on arms to a small country which must depend upon its troops to carry on a war
while the great nations can manufacture their own materials and such as an embargo could not injure them?
CHICAGO'S ANNUAL EVENT
Gang war has broken out again in Bill Thompson's city. Several men posing as police officers formed the ring that unceremoniously moved down members of the North Ship gang of George "Bugs" Morrison Thursday. The slaying, in the form of a massacre, was something new in Chicago gang warfare. Before, the gangs took their victims "for a ride," hurting them into motor cars and raked their victims with gunfire. Never before, however, has one gang invaded—the stronghold of another, rounded up the victims and calmly shot them to death. The scene of the slaying is within a few blocks of two other sensational gang killings. The flower store, where Din O'Manson was killed among his roses and erasmamus, is about two miles south of the present killing, and it was near the flower store and nexus from Holy Name cathedral that Hymie Webes, another gang leader, and several others were moved down by machine guns, a year or two later.
As a result of Chicago's measures the state attorney has ordered the police to close every saloon, soft drink parlor, speakeasy, beer flat, or other disinterested place under penalty of being held directly responsible - intimating that they would be indicted if they failed to ober the order. Chicago can be cleaned up if the enforcement bodies will work conglomerally with one another. A new regime without so much politics might hold matters a whole lot.
SAVE THE DIMES
An Atlanta contractor has not spent a dine in 20 years, although he is not a miser. In fact, he is a prosperous man, owning a house, an automobile, and building and loan structly simply because he has saved every 19 cents piece that came into his possession for nearly 29 years.
The result of the contractor's fortra poses again the caution that it is the constant enderow which finally accomplies the desired achievement. So it is in seeing time or any other valuable commodity. Daily attention to lessons, even during a limited space of time, is far more apt to yield results than aquatic spherules at rare intervals. Besides the immediate gain to the individual it is not worthless to establish habits of duty to duty.
ARE THEY OR ARE THEY NOT?
The latest fat ad among antique furniture dealers is to cut their pieces first, the same as the bootleggers and to cut warehouse rye and bourbon. This method is reserved to make the supply of real pieces last longer. Something that many women with had been done long time ago. The chair or whatever it may be is cut down the middle and each side is then finished off with antiquated modern workmanships. This makes two antique chairs in place of one Americans are by far the coolest sufferers from deception on the part of antiquarians and it is estimated that seventy-five per cent of the so-called antiques that are bought by wealthy citizens of the United States are faked, whether in part or entirely, something that is apt to make some folks sit up and take notice.
To have something made back in 1400 or other some dart way back in history, is the aim of thousands of people, but if the theory is correct that Americans are the greatest sufferers, there is apt to be some examination done before purchase, and maybe they will not bite so quickly. One taste of pepper is enough for most people looking for relishes.
What President Coolidge will do after the fourth of March is a topic of speculation, but what he may do before that date is a subject of still greater concern.
It has been suggested that bootlegging is backed by the business interests of the country. How encouraging to find that at last someone has awakened to the fact that the bootleggers are doing big business.
Twelve Hundred Species of Plants That Have Rubber in Their Veins
Washington—There are easily 1200 species of plants in the world that have rubber in their hair, as Thomas Edison said in his recent birthday message. There are probably newer 12,000 such species, if we take into consideration all that have even a little rubber. The problem is to make any of them pay, and especially to make any of those that are hardy in climate climates into paying sources of the gum that bounces.
Dear Family,
11 Edison's hopes of establishing rubber plantations in the United States are to be realized, either harsh forms of the present rubber-yielding plants of the tropics will have to be evolved, or certain rubber-yielding plants of other regions will need to be up to a point where field rubber content will pay for its own extraction.
"Inside Stuff"
--actual chat the President, a function they hold too delicious and responsible to be intended to the voters. He has the Electoral College, been more than a form and a name. And the President and Congress actually voted on the office until four months later. And Congress is not called into regular session until three months later, as it was during the beginning of the active campaign for re-election of all the members of the House and of one-third of the Senate.

NARCOTIC HYSTERIA
It is probably the rule that committees of congress are not as competent as some other agencies to get involved in problems, yet the proposal of Representative LaGurrieri for a congressional investigation of the recent bombings in Paris would be enough to end it. That is that it may tend to enlist the abyss that has somehow the oppremanda of zalotos who ask us to believe the country is going to the war.

Conditions are bad enough if they are any indictments at all. The law should be written down, but the very few passer of narcotics thrown into vileism. But no permanent good is in themselves. If they are merely overalienated they are moreover alienated we are moved by desire to justify their
The "millions of narcotic users," including our school children, who are represented as slaves to the buildup are in a very few hundred thousands, a considerable proportion of them emancipate when the real story is told. We know that many of the antagonists draw a long bone are to be found not only in common observation but in such statistics as are provided by LaGuarda himself. That statement estimates the value of narcotics manfully imported in the host site and then delivered to the authorities. When we divide this by the number of days in half a year and consider the host to the addict of an average day's dose, the "million" dissolves into air.
MR. HOOVER IS ELECTED
Hirbert Hoover and Charles Curtis were elected recently to be the next President and Vice-President of the United States, placed in Washington, in joint session of the two Houses of Congress. The votes of the Electors of the forty-eight States were read and counted by the House of Representatives, and the result was announced by Vice President Dawes. At the moment, not sooner, it became technically proper to refer to Mr. Hoover as President-elect. That is now in status.
It was the intent of the Constitution makers that the Electors should
- All the present rubber trees and vines are warm-climbing plants. The Parra rubber tree, Hoya, which now grows in Hawaii, is one of the world's crop on the East Indian plantations, is decidedly a tropical form. It will just comment to grow in the tropics where it lives. For money unless it is permitted to bug the equator. It is out of the question for the United States proper.

The original "Digital raphur" of the Ornate Renaissance garden is leg, the same tree used as an ornamental in thousands of apartments, and in larger sizes as a display piece in many greenscapes. This tree is very hard to find. It is still very sensitive to frost, and so hardly be expected to pay its way even in the South miles new climate can be produced.
Glycerine •contains rubber
Glycerine is more extensively in the adjacent states of Mexico, there is a native bush, the ginkgo, which contains rubber in paying quantities. It has the same properties as rubber but it is tiny bits of the pure substance, not as a milky juice which has to be complexed and expensive treatments before it can be used. Glycerine is also part of the corporation which has a large plantation in southern California, but even its native rubber plant requires the best heat for growth and texture.
Adhesive tinted rubber: Moisture
Perhaps third in present importance is a rubber production is the Malagasy plant, which Mr. Edison in now try to expand its reach with a new tropica, it now produces only a small fraction of the world's rubber, but it lends beauty by plantation methods and with more modern means of extraction than those now practiced in its homeland.

FREE SPEECH AND PRESS
"Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or of press." Although this has been a part of the Constitution of the United States since the beginning of our great republic, attempts have been made and are still being made to violate the spirit of this fundamental law.
Nearly a century and a half ago men of mind and vision saw the need of truth, and freedom of expression in the world. But it was upon the dangerous waves of time.
The most disquieting feature at the present time is the fact that in some instances American students' tempers are being made to encronach upon the Freedom of student expression. Thus we find that Americanism becomes strong, and that the solidarity of the university might not be disturbed, students are forced to submit to instruction.
The tendency to close certain vital subjects to student comment is not only apparent but pronounced. Adherence to this tendency that思于 think freedom of speech and press for the students exists only when it does not approach the realm of personal criticism, that in many cases their mistakes are felt kissing by the student body .

AT the portals of our large cities—New York, Baltimore, Detroit, and soon Cleveland—a semaphore halts a luxurious flyer drawn by a puffing steam engine. A simple switching maneuver, and electricity takes charge. A giant electric locomotive, quickly under way, glides silently into the home stretch with its long string of Pullmans. Like a thoroughbred it makes the run—irresistibly. Passengers alight in a clean terminal—clean because there is no smoke or soot. Another milestone in transportation—another event in the life of the iron horse! Civilization is progressing, with electricity in the van. How far this advance will take us is a problem for our future leaders. It is for them to develop and utilize new applications of electricity—the force that is pointing the way over uncharted courses, not only in railroading, but in every phase of progress.
