A Curved Ball.
Many boys do not understand why
a ball may be made to curve in its
flight. Here is the explanation; When
a bail is thrown it is retarded in its
forward motion by the resistance of
the air, which exerts a pressure not
only on the face of the ball, but a
resisting force on its sides by fric¬
tion. If tho ball bo simply thrown
forward the friction of the air will be
equal on each side of it; but, if one
side be made to move faster than the
other, that is, if the ball be made
to rotate on Its own axis so as to
Increase tho lateral friction, the
natural result Is a curve in the di¬
rection of the side on which Its mo¬
tion has been retarded. That is tin
philosophy of a "curved ball."

Dootore doctor? Cuat Know Taatea.
j "Do know how their ow
; medicine taatea?” was a question
to a group of physicians.
"To be sure,” said one, “but
have hard work to convince our )W
tlents that we do. 'If you only
how this beastly stuff tastes, doctor,
you wouldn’t ask me to take It,’ la
the complaint they make when dosed
with an especially disagreeable con¬
coction. And they are hard-headed
people, too, who -say that—people who
are by no means raving in delirium.
No matter how sincerely I may pro¬
test It 1 b hard to persuade them that
I do know how the stuff tastes just
as well as they do.
"‘How did you find out about it.
Is one of their trump questions. \ou
have never been laid up with Ml
tbe diseases In tbe dictionary. How
did you learn what the different rem¬
edies taste like?’
"It never occurs to tbe average
patient that tasting drugs is a part
of a medical student’e education, and
that no man is qualified to practice
until be has learned the flavor of the
medicines he prescribes.”—New York
Press.
FOOD LAW
know Teople now demand tbe right to
exactly wliat they eat.
To be tokl by maker or retailer that
the food Is “pure” is not satisfactory.
Candy may contain “pure” white clay
or "pure” dyes nud yet be very harm¬
ful. Syrups may contain “pure” glu¬
cose and yet be quite digestible and
even beneficial. Tomato catsup may
contain a small amount of salicylic or
boracic add as a necessary preserva¬
tive, which may .\gree with one and be
harmful to another.
Wheat flour may contain a portion of
coru flour aud really be Improved.
Olive oil may be made of cotton seed
oil. Butter may contain beef suet aud
yet be nutritious.
Tbe person who buys and eats must
protect himself and family, and he has
u right to, and now demands, a law
under which he can make Intelligent
selection of food.
Many pure food bills have been In¬
troduced and some passed by State
legislatures; many have been offered
to Congress, but ail thus far seem ob¬
jectionable.
It has seemed difficult for politicians
to formulate ft satisfactory bill that
would protect the common people aud
yet avoid harm to honest makers and
prevent endless trouble to retailers. No
government commission or officer has
the right to fix “food standards” to de¬
fine what the people shall and shall not
eat, for what agrees with one may not
agree with another and such act would
deprive the common citizen of his per¬
sona! liberty. The Postum Cereal Co.,
Ltd., perhaps the largest makers of
prepared foods in the world, have nat¬
urally a close kuowledge of the needs
of the people and the details of the
business of the purveyors, (the retail
grocer) and, guided by this experience
hare prepared a bill for submission to
Congress which is iutended to accom¬
plish the desired ends, aud inasmuch
as a citizen of the U. S. has a right to
food protection even when he enters
another Stale it is deemed proper that
the gov’t take control of this matter
and provide a national law to govern
all the States. A copy of the bill is
herewith reproduced.
Sec. 1 governs the maker whether tbe
food is put up in small packages scaled,
or in barrels, boxed or otherwise,
Sec. 2 governs the retailer, who may
open a barrel and sell the food in
small quantities. When he puts the
goods into a paper bag be must also
enclose a printed copy of the statement
of the maker which was affixed to tlio
original pkg. and inasmuch ns the re¬
tailer cannot undertake to guarantee
tbe statement of ingredients he must
publish the statement of the makers
aud add his own name and address as
a guarantee of his selling the food as
it is represented to him which relieves
the retailer of responsibility of tlie
truth of the statement and throws tt
upon the maker, where it properly be¬
longs.
The remaining sections explain them¬
selves.
The Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., for ex¬
ample, have from the beginning of its
existeuce printed on the outside of each
and every pkg. of Postum and Grape-
Nuts food a truthful aud exact state¬
ment of what the contents were made
of in order that tbe consumer might
know precisely what he or she was eat¬
ing. A person desiring to buy, for in¬
stance, strictly pure fruit jeily and
willing to pay the price has a right to
expect not only an equivalent for the
cost but a further right to certainty
as to what he eats. Or he may be
willing to buy at less cost a jelly made
part of fruit juices, sugar and a portion
of glucose. But he must be supplied
with truthful information of the Ingre¬
dients nnd be permitted to use his per¬
sonal liberty to select his own food
accurately. ’
The people have allowed the slow
murder of infants aud adults, by tricky
makers of food, drink and drugs to go
on about long enough. Duty to oneself,
family and nation demands that every
man and woman join in an organized
movement to clear our people from this
blight. You may not be able to go per¬
sonally to Washington to impress your
Congressman, but you can, in a most
effective way tell him by letter how
you desire him to represent you.
Remember the Congressman is In
Congress to represent the people from
his district and if a goodly number of
citizens express their views to him, he
secures a very sure guide to duty. Re¬
member also that the snfety of the
people is assured by insisting that the
will of the people be carried out, and
not the machinations of the few for
selfish interests.
This pure food legislation is a pure
movement of the people for public pro¬
tection. It will be opposed only by
those who fatten their pockets by de¬
ceiving and injuring the people. There¬
fore, if your Representative in Con¬
gress evades his patriotic duty hold him
to strict accountability and if necessary
demand equitable and honest service.
This is a very different condition than
when a faction demands class legisla¬
tion of the Congressman. Several
years ago the butter interests of the
country demanded legislation to kill
the oleomargarine industry aud by
power of organization forced class leg¬
islation really unworthy of a free peo¬
ple. Work people wanted beef suet
butter because it was cheap and better
than much unclean milk butter, but the
dairy Interests organized and forced the
legisiation. The Jaw should have pro-
Tided that pkgs. of oleomargarine bear
the statement of ingredients and then
let people who desire purchase it for
just wbat it is, aud uot try to kill it by
a heavy tax. Manufacturers some-
times try to force measures in their

"The trouble," said the druggist,
‘‘is that you have recently taken to
using sand soap.”
“I have; that’s a fact," said the
girl; "but what has that got to do
with it? That makes my hands soft
and smooth.”
“Yes,” replied the druggist; "that’s
all it does If you use It properly. But
If you don’t, It gets under the nails
and scratches the under surfaces of

which touches them sticks. If you
use the sand soap only on the skin
and keep even the lather away from
the nails you’ll find the trouble will
cease.”—Philadelphia Record.
own interests but contrary to tbe in¬
terests of tbe people and the labor trust
Is always active to push through bills
drafted In the Interest of that trust but
directly contrary to the interests of tbe
people as a whole. Witness the anti-
injunction bill by which labor unions
seek to tie tbe bands of our courts and
prevent the Issue of any order to re¬
strain the members of that trust from
attacking men or destroying property.
Such a bill Is perhaps the most Infam¬
ous insult to our courts and the com¬
mon people ever laid before Congress
nnd the Representatives in Congress
must be held to a strict accountability
for their acts relating thereto. But
when bills come before Congress that
are drawn In the interest of all the
