The noblest spirits are those which turn to Heaven not only in the hour of sorrow, but in that of joy; like the lark, they wait for the clouds to disperse that they may soar up into their native element.—Richter. THE WORLD'S END One of the minor religious sects in this country is prophesying the end of the world in a few weeks, and warning other churches and the public. Its prophetess, a Los Angeles woman, says: "A black cloud will appear in the sky, growing greater every day until February 6. Then at midnight Christ will appear, and all the unrighteous will be blinded and killed by glory, and the dead will cumber the earth 1000 years be fore Satan awakes them to hell. But Christ will take the righteous with him, and they shall go to their reward." There have been many such propecies during the last 1900 years, and they have all ended in the same way. The sun has risen and set us usual on the appointed day, and life has moved on in its eternal stream. No doubt the wicked will be punished and the righteous will obtain their reward, for this is a fair and square world. And anything purporting to be a religious revelation is likely to have at least a kernel of truth in it. But the time appointed is in the keeping of the Master of the Universe. Life on this planet has endured for a long time, and may endure for many million years. Whether everything will end in a universal doom, at one time, is something no man knows. But wise men know that, for practical purposes, the world ends every moment and begins every moment. To each one, every moment is a turning point and an opportunity for choice. And while the race lasts, the world will end every time a human being dies, and be newly created every time a human being is born. to have at least a kernel of truth in it.

Too much California climate for that. MR. COOLIDGE'S VOTE SETS RECORD Calvin Coolidge was elected President, in November, by the greatest plurality ever received by a Presidential candidate—7,839,832. This was more than 433,000 greater than the plurality for Mr. Harding in 1920. Mr. Coolidge polled more votes than his two principal competitors combined. Complication of official figures showing the popular vote indicates the magnitude of the victory for Mr. Coolidge. No candidate for the Presidency ever was given a mandate from the people supported so overwhelmingly as this. It is a solitary verdict—the more solennil because so overwhelming. That Mr. Coolidge regards it with profound respect for the will of the people there is no gainsaying. He is accepting the mandate in the spirit in which it was given by his country-men. He is proceeding to carry out his pledges to the people. His administration bids fair to show the very closest adherence to the pledges which he and his party made during the Presidential campaign. The outstanding work of the administration, as pledged, is to lead the government into the channels of economy in expenditure combined with efficiency of service to the people, with reduction of taxes in the fullest measure which business like conduct of the government will permit. Nations, as well as individuals, must pay their just debts or suffer in their credit. LITTLE DOSES OF COMMON SENSE BY DR. W.F. THOMSON Old Dobbin and the Doctor are passing from our country lanes—both to greener pastures. It's useless, Old Timer. To dwell on the past; If you want to get thinner You must diet or fast. In the treatment of pneumonia, plenty of oxygen beats Gordon gin. Bacteria thrive in milk, also in babies—to the detriment of the babies. Our Nellie's grades are very poor—and study she avoids; The doctor says that he is sure It's due to adenoids. The knife, the X-ray and ra- Oh, they live in hot houses And they never do know That there's health in the weather With the mercury low. If all our pains are due to dislocated backbones, we want somebody to explain earache to us. By doctoring with chemicals, tainted meat may be made to look like new—that's why we have pure food laws. And they chased across the meadow, With the sun x'shinin' through; I watched the passing shadows As they scurried from my view.

America has comparatively few haughty women, and they can look that way in a barber chair. She is old enough to be called "Miss" when she no longer makes a practice of losing handkerchiefs. It's odd that Mr. Edison has thought up a cross-word puzzle to expose the ignorance of college men. Work makes prosperity; proper times are those in which people hope to get enough to sit work. As to inguition, the modern girl who selects her own husband does little better than the o. f. girl who was patiently passive.

Alight Lunch DINNER STORIES A lady staying at a hotel was frightened by a noise like that of a person running about in a room above the one she occuplied. The noise went on at intervals for two nights and then changed. as if the occupant on the floor above had gone mad and was skipping about. The lady did not believe in ghosts, but she was afraid of them, so she asked the clerk to investigate the mystery. It was a sick foreigner obeying the imperfectly understood directions of an English medical man: "Take the medicine two nights and then skip a night." "You say you want some name engraved on this ring," said the jeweler to the bashful young man. "Yes; I want the words, 'George to his dearest Alice, engraved on the inside of the ring.'" "Is the young lady your sister?" "No; she is the young lady to whom I am engaged." "Well, if I were you I would not have 'George, to his dearest Alice' engraved on the ring. If Alice changes her mind you can't use the ring again." "I would suggest the words, 'George, to his first and only love.' You see, with that inscription you can use the ring half a dozen times. I have had experience in such matters myself." A lawyer was arguing with the physician over the relative merits of their respective professions. "I don't say that all lawyers are villains," said the doctor, "but you'll admit your profession doesn't make angels of men." "No,' retorted the lawyer, "you doctors certainly have the best of us there." Bubonic plague is a terrible disease.

Writes: What is the normal blood pressure? ANSWER: For an adult the normal blood pressure is the normal systolic blood pressure and should be from 120 to 130. This should not increase much in those of advanced age and should never really go higher than 130. QUESTION: D.L.V. writes: Have had catarrh for years. What kind of diet would help to cure this annoying trouble? ANSWER: Several hundred words would be necessary to give you a correct description of the diet necessary in your case, and this, of course, is not possible in a column of this size. If you will continue to read these articles, the necessary information will be given from day to day. First of all you should eliminate all sturches and sugars from your diet; also do not use milk in any form. Substitute the good proteids, fruits and the non-starchy cooked and salad vegetables, which are not mucus-forming foods. QUESTION: Mrs. I.M.B. writes: I am 56 years of age, have a bad liver, intestinal indigestion, a weak stomach and kidney, a weak and rapid heart, a bad case of catarrh and am constantly troubled with an excess of acidity in the system. What shall I do? ANSWER: From the various symptoms described suggest that you try a general fruit juice fast from ten to fourteen days, as described many times in this column. Then take two small protein meals night and morning; having an acid fruit luncheon. No starches. QUESTION: Mrs. L.L. writes: I have your book and tried the orange juice fast for five days for Asthma, which helped me very much, but after the fourth day, felt a light, funny feeling in my head. What would cause this feeling? ANSWER: The feeling you mention is purely a fasting symptom. You did not fast long enough, and you should start another fast, continuing from about three weeks to thirty days. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1925 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying POLAR AIR TRIP HAS VALUE—Stockton Independent There are few if any undertakings that could appeal more to imagination or arouse more public interest than the proposed flight of an airship across the Arctic region, over the North Pole and return to civilization. While the enterprise probably would not be so hazardous to the participant as many an arctic exploration ventured in sea-going vessels, yet it is such a wide departure from methods whose possibilities have been demonstrated by experience that it creates the impression of possessing new dangers. The objective is worth while, and, if men choose to take the risk, they will be accorded unstinted praise and will be accompanied by all the good wishes of the people of the country. The distance to be traversed is not as great as most people would believe without having studied the map. In fact, the round trip, if fairly good luck be had, could be completed in 48 hours or less. Nevertheless, there are so many unknown factors to be considered, so many conditions unfamiliar to navigators of the air, that one need not be accused of pessimism if he regards the chances of success as exceedingly small. But the venture cannot be a complete failure. Even though a part, or all of the adventurous explorers fail to return, they will at least ascertain some of the obstacles to be overcome, and will thus assure the success of later undertakings of the same sort. Fortunately for the cause of science, recent inventions have added much to the value of such a tour of exploration and have increased the probability of its success. Not the least of these is the system of aerial photography, developed by an American inventor, Sherman L. Fairchild, whose cameras have been used with great success in mapping cities, mountains and forests. A series of photographs of the arctic region will afford highly valuable material for careful study under the magnifying glass and in the security and comfort of the scientist's office at home and for the entertainment and instruction of the people who may view them through the aid of the silver screen. A DREAM TRIP TO MARS When you derive into a book it should be an adventure. A book that doesn't afford an adventure for the mind isn't worth reading. Dreams of An Astronomer, by Camille Flammarion, France's great astronomer, affords adventure that sends the imagination whirling: In it Flammarion takes his readers on a trip to Mars. "Thirty-seven million miles from the earth," he begins an account of the martian visit. "It is not very far, astronomically speaking. It is, in fact, quite near, a few paces away." "The world of Mars is the first station of the Solar system, the first planet we meet on leaving the earth to visit the remote regions of the heavens. "The further we move away from the earth, the smaller grows the apparent size of our own world.

"The further we move away from the earth, the smaller grows the apparent size of our own world. Seen from the Moon, our planet hangs in the sky like an enormous moon, four times the size of our own satellite, and 16 times as luminous, for it is located in space and reflects the light received from the Sun, as it done by the moon and the various planets of the solar system. "At the distance of the orbit of Mars, at the time when the planets are in greatest proximity (37 million miles), the Earth no longer shows a sensible disc, but is still the biggest and brightest star in the entire heavens. The inhabitants of Mars, therefore, admire us as a brilliant star in the sky, showing aspects similar to those which Venus shows u.
