TODAY'S TALK - By George Matthew Adams. Author of "You Caw", Take It", "Up". THE FISH OUT OF ITS OWN WATER I went through an Aquarium the other day. It was as good as going to school for a year! There were fish of all colors some with tinth of gold and blue and green. There were some who changed their exquisite coats as the light touched their bodies. They swam with perfect grace and seemed to wonder what was in the minds ot those who looked at them so curiously.. ... But interesting as the place .was, I found that one sight dominated my memory as soon as I was away and it still dominates my thought." - Some fisherman had caught a huge sawfish and he was penned .in 'glass cage hardly big enough for him to move about in. They gave him fresh water and put food into his cage. But he moved about with a heart of grief and would not eat. They tell me that he will soon : die! .' . . -:,;:'.. But why will he die?1 Why does he not eat? I have been asking these questions of myself. No one seems to know. I have my own ideas, however. You see the little fish have so much larger place, . proportionately, in which to play. They have companions and besides they are small fish! This big fish was built for the ocean. He must have the BIG In which to live.- ' . I have been thinking of the many human fish in the world. The thousands who seem to be content to live in strange waters, upon the food that is given to them, for which they do not have to strive and sweat. . i.. In contrast is the big human fish who MUST have a world in which to move, to plan, to build and to grow. Cage .him and he dies. I have read that Napoleon died from eating fried onions. I do not believe it. They1 put him on a lonely island away from big worlds, marching armies, kingdoms, and masses of human beings with whom he played. And so he died a young man! Fight when anybody tries to get you out of the water which you know you must have to live and thrive and achieve!
CHICAGO CLOTHIERS
MANILA. P. I., March 10. That American firms are on the alert for
j business in the far east was demonj strated by the receipt of letters here from clothing manufacturers of the United . States, offering to furnish , trousers In any quantify or grade of i material for the male . population of I the Philippine Islands. - These offers grew out of the publication in the United States of the . provisions of- a bill introduced in the , legislature early in December, by Sen. ator Lope K. Santos, requiring the nonI Christian tribes of northern Luzon and ! the island of Mindanao to wear more (clothing. The bill has never' been reI ported on by committee and the leadj era say it probably will not be revived j during the present session. ' ! One large manufacturer of clothing
in Chicago, wrote to Santos: "The writer was interested to note
the enclosed clipping from a Chicago
newspaper. , As one of the largest clothing specialty manufacturers of the country, we are in a position to supply trousers in most any grade or
character of material at prices thai will prove attractive "If at any time your government wishes bids, we ask to have the privilege of submitting our prices and samples." A large clothing firm in New Tory wrote to Senator Santos in a similar vein. .

Two Minutes of Optimism By HERMAN J. STICH
iM SPIKING THE GHOST OF SPOOKVILLE : The story f the last few months is in many respects the story of what happened in SpoOkville. v The tailor in Spookville, having eaten some canned lob3ter, or perhaps because he was a lobster himself, "got a hunch", that "times were going to be hard;" set he countermanded a bicycle he had ordered of the hardwareman. , The hrdw4reinan woke up one morning with a "feeling that "people were going to economize and that trade would be poor;" and he was further strengthened in his "feeling" by the tailor's countermanding the bicycle. So he decided not to buy the horse he had been looking at. . ' The horse dealer dreamed a dream, did a little self-psycho-analyzing, and reckoned i;he world was getting poorer and "business was, due to be bad" espeoially so since Hy Hank had called off the deal on the old mare. So he sjopped the plans or an addition to his home. - The builder read a news paragraph in the Daily Vet Blanket, which

Says His Prescription . Has Powerful Influence Over Rheumatism
Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the accumulated impurities, commonly called uric acid deposits, were dissolved in the joints and muscles and expelled from the body. With this idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and finally compounded a prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might

IT'S a real pleasure to bake with Valier's Enterprise Flour. Week in and week out it produces the same fine results for its quality never varies. This" year millers are tempted to cut price at the expense of quality, but we will not change Enterprise one particle. It wouldn't be fair to the thousands of housewives who have pinned their faith for years on its never-changing quality. Moreover it would be false economy. The very quality which makes Valier's Enterprise Flour cost more to buy than ordinary flour makes it more economical to use. Because Enterprise Flour is milled from nothing but the white centers of the very choicest hard winter wheat, it has concentrated baking qualities ra sack will go further.
