Some One Explain This Herbert Bayard Swope, commissioned to make an investigation of conditions in Germany, In a series of articles printed in the New York World has taken up the food problem there. His figures show that the price of foodstuffs in Berlin are in some instances cheaper than they are In New York City. Bread, cornmeal, butter, potatoes, in fact, the necessities of life are as cheap In Berlin as in New York. This prompts the World to say: "In the table of food prices in Berlin cited by Mr. Swope in yesterday's World the eye is caught by such scarcity prices at $2 a' pound for tea and cocoa, $1.75 a pound for ham and bacon, 30 cents pound for pears and half as much for apples, 0 cents a pound for geese. "Quite as sensational, read in New York, is the list of foods still cheaply sold. Berlin pays 8 cents for 1.1 quarts of milk. Potatoes are 1 Cents for 1.1 pounds, or 21 cents a peck; our wholesale price is more than double, and a Western moving-picture show has sold admission tickets for two potatoes each. Berlin pays 6 Cents for 1.1 pounds cornmeal; though corn is an American specialty the price cannot be matched in New York. Even butter, in spite of the dearth of fats in Germany, costs 39 cents for 1.1 pounds, well under the New York price. Bread, in wartime doubly the staff of life, costs the Berlin
hausfrau 9 cents for 1.1 pounds, practically the same as the New York 12-ounce loaf at 6 cents. "Measured by dollar exchange, the German mark has been for weeks at a discount of 25 or more per cent., some portion of which represents paper currency inflation in German markets. Even .if no allowance be made for cheap inflated money, the puzzling problem remains why New York at peace should pay so much more for so many foods than Berlin at war." The New York World is not a pro-German newspaper, but a rabid supporter of the Allies. Hence, the findings of its correspondent can be accepted for their face value. We believe that one reason why we are forced to pay exorbitant prices for food products is because the allies are exhausting our markets. The best solution of the problem, and one that will restore prices that we can afford to pay, is to put an embargo on all foodstuffs, so that the Allies and not the American housewife will be forced to pay the big price.
Learning by Doing Four of the largest department stores in Indianapolis have - made an agreement with the school board which provides for the training high school students "studying salesmanship and for further instruction of salesmen and saleswomen in their work. The stores' obligate, themselves" to accept a student who has completed a two year's course in salesmanship in the public schools. While a student is taking the course,, the stores will give him at least one or two days' actual experience each week in selling goods to customers. Indianapolis is linking' her schools closely with the vocations which her young men and women will follow later in life. This is the first step in bringing school and actual life into contact. The experiment is not a new one, for Cincinnati University is an institution which is based on the theory that a university has a municipal obligation and relation which it cannot ignore.
The Gold of the Gods
By Arthur B. Reeve
(A Mystery of the Incas Solved by Craig Kennedy, Scientific Detective)
'There seems to have been so much
hbout it that I did not know," he re
turned, "that I am almost afraid to have an opinion. I knew that its three-
Elded eheath Inclosed a sharp blade, yet who would have dreamed that the blade was poisoned?" j "You are lucky not to have scratched yourself with it by accident while jyou were studying it." I "Possibly I might have done it, if jl had had it In my possession lonper. lt was only lately that I had leisure to study It." "You knew that It might offer some (clue to the hidden treasure of Trux- , Mo?" suggested Kennedy, "Have you ;any recollection of what the inscriptions on it said?" ! "Yes," returned Norton, "I had heard 'the rumors about it. But Peru is a iland of taleB of burled treasure. No, I I can't Bay that I paid much more attention to it than you might have done if some one asserted that he had another story of the treasure of Captain Kidd. I must confess that only when ithe thing was stolen did I begin to iwonder whether, after all, there might !not be something in it. Now it is too iate to find out. From the moment .when I found that it was missing from my collection I have heard no more about it than you have found out. It Is all like a dream to me. I cannot believe evn yet that a mere bit of archaeological and ethnological specimen could have played so important a part in the practical events of real llife." - "It does seem impossible," agreed Kennedy. "But it is even more remarkable than that. It has disappeared without leaving a trace, after hav"lng played its part, i "If it bad been a mere robbery," considered Norton, "one might look for Its reappearance, I suppose, in the icurlo shops. For today thieves have a keen appreciation of the value of uch objects. But, now that you have ,unearthpd its use against Mendoza and in such a terrible way it is not likely that that will be what will happen to it. No, we must look else-inhere."
"I though I would tell you," concluded Kennedy, rising to go. "Perhaps after you have considered it over night some idea may occur to you." "Perhaps," said Norton doubtfully. "But I haven't your brilliant faculty of scientific analysis, Kennedy. No, I
6hall have to lean on you, in that, not
you on me." We left Norton, apparently now
more at sea than ever. At the labora
tory Kennedy plunged into some micro
photographic work that the case had

the discovery of curare, and telephoned it down to the Star In time to catch the first morning edition, in the hope that it might have- some effect in apprising the criminal that he were hard
J cn his trail, which ahs had considered
covered. I scanned the other papers eagerly in the morning for Kennedy, hoping to glean at least some hints that others who were working on the case might have gathered. But there was nothing, and, after a hasty bite of breakfast, we buried back to take up the thread of the investigation where we had laid it down. . ' To our surprise, on the steps of the Chemistry Building, as we approached, we saw Inez Mendoza already waiting for ns in a high state of agitation. Her face was pale, and her voice trembled as she greeted us. "Such a dreadful thing has come to me," she cried, even before Kennedy could ask her what the trouble was. From her handbag she drew out a crumpled, dirty piece of paper in an envelope. "It came in the first mail," she explained. "I could not wait to send it to you. I brought it myself. What can it mean?" Kennedy unfolded the paper. Printed in large characters, in every way similar to the four warnings that had been sent to us, was just one ominous line. We read: "Beware the man who professes to be a friend of your father." I glanced from the note to Kennedy, then to Inez. One name was in my
j mind, and before I knew it I had
spoken It.
"Lockwood?" I queried inadvertently. Her eyes met mine in sharp defiance. "Impossible," she exclaimed. "It is some one trying to injure him with me. Beware cf Mr. Lockwood? How absurd!" , Yet it must have meant Lockwood. No one else could have been meant. It was he, most of all, who might be called a friend of her father. She seemed to see the implication without a word from us. (To Be Continued.)

QUIT MEAT IF YOUR KIDNEYS ACT BADLY
Take tablespoonful of Salts If Back hurts or Bladder bothers.
We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is Irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little occasionally to keep the kidneys clean and active.
