Blood is strong and full of life-gi\»l
ing vigor when there are plenty of fedl
cells in it. Anaemic people have little |
strength because there are not enough]
red cells in the blood, It is thin ahdi
watery. Weak blood makes faces pale,
pulls down the styenigth and leaves the
body tired, weak, and sickly.
A course "in Gude's Pepto-Mangan
restorés weak blood\to its normal
strength, Taken regularly for a while
it adds red cells to *he Blood. Then
with good blood, the strength and
vigor of health returns. There\js pleas- |
ure in living, with good blood funning

EFFECT OF LIGHT ON EYES
Simple Reason Why Luminous Watch
Dial Is Not Visible in Dark
Tunnel by Day.
-
Why should a watch dial be lumin
ous at night and not luminous In a
dark tumnel by day? The trouble is
not with the dial but with your eyes.
in sunlight the pupils of our eyes con
tract and shut out part of the bright- j
ness; in darkness they expand and
tot in ail the ligh* they can. But our
pupils do not contract or expand in
stantly ; they take fifteen minutes or
more even to go from their smallest to
their largest size. At night most of
us are in artificial light, which is sel
dom so strong as daylight, and conse
quently our pupils expand a good deal.
When we put out the light our pipils
do not have to expand far to enable
us to see well in the dark. |
Dials are luminous only when the
hands and the numbers are co:lted‘
with luminous paint, which is made by
mixing radium with zine sulphide in
the ratio of one to a million. The
amount of radium on any one dial
cannot be measured except by the In
credibly refined methods of a modern
science. A year or twe ago a well
known imember of congress asked the |
chief of the bureau of standards in
Washington whether he thought he
could take the “little end of nothing |
whittled down to a fine point and use
it to poke the pith out of a mouse's
whisker.”
“Oh,” replied the xcientist, with a
smile, “that would be coarse work,
very coarse, indeed.” ‘
DESERTED WIRES FOR ALTAR
Japanese Feminine Telephone Opera.
tors, Superstitiously Inelined, In
terfered With Business.
The extent to which tradition and
superstition often interfere with Jap
aliese business is Indieated by the
sudden increase In marriages among
telephome opérators this year. . Ofia
of the oldest customs in Japan is
to assign the name of a bird of an
dnlmal to éach yeat. The year 1920
was “monkey year,” which in Japan
ése is pronounced “saru.” Now, as
this also means “to go away,” the ap
prehension has arisen that girls mar-
Med in that year aré very apt to bhe
deserted by thefr hugbands. The fol
lowing year, however, I 8 that of the
birds, for which the Japanese word
“tarf” means “to take.”” Hence a
marked increase has been noted In
the number of girls who have taken
the matrimonial plunge.
As might beé expected, the result has
not tended to.lmprove the Japanese
telephone service, which is operated
exclusively by the governmemt. There
are about 200,000 appiicatione for serv.
fce now waiting to be fllled, and
there is about one-half a telephone
for esch 100 inhabitants, a# against 14
telepliones fof. esch 100 inhabitants in
the United States.

OUT-OF-DATE MACHINE
A committee made up of three mem
bers of the senate and three members
of the house 1s now considering the
whole problem of the organization of
the executive departments of the gov
ernment with a v'ew to finding out
how to reorganize them so as to in
crease their efliclency and decrease
their cost of operation. It is about
thme. The great executive depart
ments of the government have not
been reorganized or greatly modern-
Ized since Alexander Hamilton's day.
Represeiwative Reavis of Nebra<lka
is one of the members of this joint
congressional committee that is mak
ing the present investigation. He put
the resolution through the house that
brought about the appointment of the
committee. He is a part of the na
tional government machine and he
ought to know what helis talking about
when he says that “while the gov
ernment of the United States is the
world’s biggest business, 1t 18 likewise
the world’s worst managed business.”
That is an indictm@nt and a state
ment of fact that will stand the closest
scerutiny and the most unsparing
analysis. But lsten to Mr. Reavis:
“Why should the Interior department
run an insane asylum and a college for
negroes and a school for the deaf?
How did it get that way Why should
one/personnel in the pension bureau
in the Interior department bhe caring
for the disabled soldlers of the Civil
war and the Spanish American war,
while another personnel In the bureau
of war risk Insurance of the treas
ury Is earing for the veterans of the
World war? Why this hodgepodge of
totally unrelated purposes which Is re
sulting in endless duplication and ap
palling expense ¥ ;
T will~let Mr, Reavis go on witheut
further interruption. As a member
~of the house he has his share of the
‘ responsibllity for the conditions he de
seribes:
Thére are 39 separate governmental
agencies handling engineering, architec
i tural and public works functions, all of a
| related kind. There is no good reason why
| all these agencles should not be co-ordi
' nated In one department and about 3§ of
the useléss organizatiens done away with.
Thereé are 26 government agencies engaged
in furveving and mapping; theréd are 27
separate and distinct agencles engaged in
public building opeérations; there are 18
agencies authorized to build roads; there
| are 19 engaged in hydraulic constfuction;
' there are 18 doing work on rivers; there
are 10 engaged in public land functions;
thére aré 1§ doing chemical lnveaur?:mn
connected with pubiic work operations:
there aré 22 doing engineering and re
' &earch.
{ Many of these agencies have been in
active for a number of years, but they
are keeping up their personnel in antiéi
patien of work in the future. We could
save $300,000,000 a year, in my judgment,
by doing away with useless bureaus and
duplication of activities,
- Scme of the duplications are ridicu
‘ lous“and absurd. For instance, the gpv
ernment seeks to protect the wild animals
in the national parks. If a brown kadiak
bear has twin cubs, one brown and one
black, as often happens, and one should
shoot the brown cub he must make his
settlement with one department, but if
he shoots its full brother, the black eub,
he must settl® with another dcpartment.
If you were to shoot a fox in Alaska your
settlement would be with the Department
of Agriculture, while If you trapped the
same fox you must make your settlement
with the Department of (Commerce.
The government issued last year
through lits several bureaus and depart
ments 16 cookbooks. The last one that
was issued was published by-ithé board
of vocational education. This is a board
organized by the congress for the purpose
of rehnbilitating crippled soldlers of the
World war, to prevent, as far as possible,
their becoming develicts In life. . . . It
may be of interest to state that while the
government has beenr issuing 16 cookbooks
and consuming vast quantities of print
paper in these and similar useless publi
cations, 1,300 country town newspapers
have suspénded in the last three months
because they could not secure print paper.
Mr. Reavis and a great many others
have sensed the feeling in the coun
try and in congress that the time has
come to put an end to all this sort
of thing. He gives reasons for his
bellef :
One of the reasons is that the people
demand that their taxation be reduced.
For many years we have been collecting
the revenues of this government through
- systems of indirect taxation. The reve
| nues have been collected through a pro
} tectivé tariff and by, excise taxation on
Intoxicating liquors. Indirect taxation of
‘ this kind prevents the people from realiz
ing fully just who is paying the expenses
of the government. THhéré was a timeé
when the expenses of the fgovernment
amounted to only 1. cents per capita per
yéar, ‘Toddy ‘the ‘annual per capifa ex
pénss excéeds $4O. ‘This tremendous ex
pense has made it necessary to resort to
direct taxation, and the peoplé¢ have gud
denly Tecoiné pafnfully awate of who
pays the expenses of the goveérnment,
I am Vorrv cdrtdin that the ellmination
of duplications anf! overlapping in the de
partments will result in the saving of
milllons of d6llars. There 18 no reason
why it should not be done.
There is every reason, in the presence
of the stfife and furmoll that prevafl in
this counfry and of the unrest occasiored
by the high cost of thé necessaries of life,
that the government should he put upen
a gane, efficlent and economical basis,
Whoever by publie c¢lamor or other
menns can induce congress and the
exerutive departments to organize the
_routine business of the national gov
ernment will have performed a great
public service. Note that I say “‘or
ganize” and not “reorganize” for In
' no proper sense has ihe federal busi
' ness ever heen organized.
