York:

The North German Lloyd liner Stuttgart docked last week at a Manhattan pier. Purser Emil Re- mer had a $6,400,600 gold bullion shipment to deliver. Gauntleted, cartridge-belted policemen swarm- ed up the gangplank. Others. arm- ed with‘ sawed-off shotguns and sub-machine guns, stood about 1n anxious readiness on the pier. The heavy gold was stowed into armor- ed trucks, ominously loopholed. The bristling caravan, like a par- ty of Forty-miners crossing Indian territory, moved of! warily toward Wall Street.

The ways of Uncle 8am are past jinding out. There is something both comical and tragical about them. Just now he is professedly, and only that way, strong for Prohibition. It was not always so. During the War allCmada was under Prohibition‘ and fairly dry. The United States was wet. And in those days a lakeful of booze wassmuggled into Canada from the Sta-tea. That was before the 18th Amendment and the Volstead Act were passed.

Presto, change! ‘Seven Canadian Provinces are now in the wet col- umn and the 48 States are in the dry column. The flow oi “liquid fire and distilled abomination" is now in lthe opposite direction, the rum-run- [tiers across the Lakes being, as they

Five ; years ago there came intopower in j South Africa a Government which owed its elevation to some extent to a. wave of Anti-British, seces- sionist, republican feeling. There were fears in South Africa and in England as to what the result might be. The position of South Africa and the Empire was felt to be a delicate one. Think for a moment -the worst thing this Government has done from the point of view Y of your ideals has been the prefer- ence clause in this German treaty, and that clause is not immediately effective. It is in the nature of a contingmt possibility. it was not an act but a gesture. 1n the words of its official apologists it is a piece of window dressing. ' But please don't forget to view it in relation Q what was feared five years ago, and remember that it is the worst thing from your point of view that has been done by a Gov- ernment believed to be hostile and antagonistic to the tie with the British Empire. If you do so you 1 will agree there has, indeed, been great progress. That progress and advancement I cordially welcome. It may be regarded as indicative of the supreme achievement of British Imperialism in recent years, as an- other manifestation of the genius l which British statesmanship shows l from time to time.

Butfwhat about folks who are sick in body, patients with tuberculosis for example?

Here again ‘Banting’; discovery of insulin has been able to"give_help. Dr. H. G. Zelter reports his exper-i ience with forced feeding and the use of insulin in the treatment oi ten cases of tuberculosis -of the lungs.

The duration of the treatment was from three to four weeks. The results proved that insulin is a valuable help to the forced feeding of undernourkh- ed tuberculous patients. ‘There was a definite increase in weight of the patients.

It affects all the building up and tearing down processes of the body, by making it possible for the tissues to useup the starchy foods more completely.

Now this doesn't mean that folks that are well should take insulin to get foods used up more completely.

If you are well you should go about your daily round of life getting enough work or exercise to give you an appetite: enough food to keep your body well nourished, and enough sleep

to enable you to feel fresh and alert -

in the morning. In fact you shouldn't have to think of any of these three things, they should all be done with- out any thought on your part.
