Over in Italy the public is taking enthusiastically to the dime novel literature of a decade ago this despite the movie thrillers of the present day, which supply tlfe longing of the youth for deeds of the wild west age. But, as is usually the case, distance in miles makes for inaccuracy, just as the old pioneer is wont to say that distance in time distorts the real wild west as he knew it. In Italy, for example, Buffalo Bill riding a camel appears on the cover of American dime novels translated and printed in that country. Another cover shows Bill in a gondola rescuing a fair damsel from a burning Mississippi river steamboat. A third has Bill at bay in a canyon flanked by African lions and tigers.

Some of our ideas about Italy are equally as ridiculous. Thats why wars are possible.

To settle an argument, state whether the flag on the capttol wis at half mast the day that President Harding was inaugurated I. A. The flag that floated over the place where the new president was to stand was at half mast on the morning of March 4, 1921.

It had been lowered as a mark of respet upon the death of ex-Speaker Champ Clark on March 2. Shortly before the inaugural ceremonies, the flag was raised to full staff in other diseases. It is well known, for instance, that while many per sons are extremely sensitive to poison ivy, others can handle it with impunity In diphtheria also, it is found that some persons, known as "carriers, actually have the germs of the disease in their throats without being infected thereby So you may be immune to hay fever and regard it as a good deal of a joke when your friends complain of it. However, your immunity may be only apparent, the freedom from attack being due to insufficient exposure, and on of these days you hiay visit a place where the air is full of hay-fever pollen Thereafter you will be less likely to treat the subject as a joke. Find Your Own Wood.

Eighty-five per cent of the cases of hay fever are caused by the pollen of the different kinds of rag weed. That is why there are more victims in late summer and early fall. Various grasses, including even timothy, will cause the disease, and in addition to the, rag weeds the chief offenders are the cheno-pods and the wormwoods. Now it is extremely interesting to note and important as well that every victim has his own particular kind of pollen to which he is susceptible and will not react to any of the other kinds. An individual sufferer is usually subject to the malign influence of a single botanical group.

That gives one a sort of exclusive feeling. It is almost like having a complex, which the psychoanalysts have made so fascinating. Of course if your pet pollen demon is the common or fence corner variety of rag weed perhaps you cant put on so many airs, but you may be able to strut a little over the thought that that Is evidence that you should tipt associate with common things. But the important feature connected with this phase of the hay fever problem is that you must first discover your own brand of poisonous pollen before you can be treated according to modern methods and probably rendered permanently im- Washington, D.

Perhaps he has been hearing from America. Enrique Robles, professionally known as sChicorrito, champion bull-fighter of Spain, been spending his vacation in this country and during his stay he took in a big league bal game, the first he ever saw.

Enrique whidh.is probably Spanish for, Henry or Hank didnt tnink much of the game. Said he: The "people made much noise and I could not understand why they should be so excited. A few men, wearing very dull clothes nothing like the brilliant costumes of our bull-fighters were running around and f' throwing a little ball and trying to hit it with A stick. It was very uninteresting. Sounds like the comment of a man from one of the planets, but perhaps Enrique couldnt 'understand why anybody should be excited in a game whei'e nothing was killed or wound ed.

In the bull ring there is likely to be much bleeding, either of man or beast, or both, and in his opinion it takes a lot more nerve to face an angry bull than it does to stand up to the plate and take a chance with a cannonball pitcher. Had Enrique ever been "beaned by a pitcher.like Walter Johnson, probably he would consider a toss from a bull mere pastime. v' Coal 0 If a cabinet member were to become president when congres; was not in session would he call a session at once I.

The inoculation test, made with hypodermic needle or by scratch mg the skin and rubbing in th polletn, having shown the type of protein to which you are unduly sensitive, you are ready for treat ment This consists in giving you repeated inoculations of the same protein in graduated doses Similar to Typhoid Treatment. This is in principle similar to the method of treatment whereby per sons are made immune to typhoid fever and other bacterial maladies The human organism is stimulated to develop protective agents within the blood stream, or it may be said to become desensitized. At any rate, after a sufficient number of treat ments the hay fever victim frequent ly ceases to be susceptible to the toxic influence of the pollen that has made life a burden every sum mer or fall By wav of caution it should be stated that this immunization meth od of treatment is a comparatively recent development and that it should be undertaken only by thoroughly competent physician. However, probably the best cure for hay fever is a preventive meas ure that anybody and everybody can apply without danger or the possibility of any complications.

This the simple process of destroying the noxious weeds before they reach the flowering stage. If there are no weeds there will be no pollen-infested atmosphere and no hay fever. And if the weeds are cut or otherwise destroyed before pollination there will be no seeds to sprout again another season. Many states and municipalities have laws or ordinances providing for the destruction of weeds and the Hay Fever Prevention association is constantly agitating for additional legislation alohg that line. Unfor tunately many of the state laws that were enacted some years ago do not specify the pernicious rag weed ill the- list of weeds that are to be destroyed and it has been found necessary to seek amend ments to those statutes if they are to benefit the hay-feverites.

But experiments have demon stated that concerted community action can accomlpish much toward making any given section practically free from the hay-fever menace. As long ago as 1915 such an experiment was tried in and about New Orleans with splendid results. The city authorities co-operated in seeing that all the rag weeds in that vicinity were destroyed that summer -and it was found that the senon of hay fever in that city was several weeks. Thf pollen was to reduced within a half-in-le distance of the city as to render It. Innocuous except- to the most susceptible, and these eventually escaped by temporary removal to the center of the city, beyond the reach of the pollen-laden winds.

Golden rod was long blamed at one of the most fruitful tourers of hay fever, but tt has been found that this was a mistake. The pollen of golden rod, end of daisies, dan delions and sunflowers, as well, will produce the symptoms it directly inhaled, but at a little distance inch plants are harmless. Their pollen Is too heavy to be carried by the wind. Get after the weeds, especially the rag weeds, is the slogan of those who know that hay fever is distinctly a. preventable disease.

The announcement by the Ku Klux Kollege that it has purchased Valparaiso university in -Indiana comes as a surprise to most of us.

It is not the theories of the Ku Klux Klan which most of us object to so much as it is the methods which they are associated with in the public mind.
