77E GREATEST CRIME. If any red from Russia or amateur anarchist from Boston caught burning a wheat stack, dynamiting a pile of potatoes or spraying tree.s with a chemical which would destroy fruit, thi nation would promptly and properly apply the most drastic punishments. Today millions of dollars of fruit are going to waste because th cost of hauling to market 13 greater than the price which Is within the reach of the consumers. In every lar?e city of this country there are hundreds of children to whom the fruit would be a Ufa Raver. They will not taete much fruit this year. Some of them will not have any personal contact vlth peache, grapes, apples or melons. Commission house-! in Chicago admit sending back chekj for a dollar for a carload of fruit. The entire value 13 wiped out in transportation and tho grower Is driven by necessity to either take a loss or permit' his croio to rot upon the fields and in tho orchards. The situation 1 an Indictment of the business ability of the nation as a whole. The spectacle of crops destroyed in cne section while other sections of the country need and demand them as food is its own commentary on our present system of distribution. Tho preat crime Is the waste, a low not only to the growers of tho nation but to the health and comfort of the consumers. There are limits of prices which the consumer can pay. Those limits are fixed by wage.?, by the value of other products, by incomes. "When the border is parsed, there can be no demand and something is rndicaJly wrong: when the consuming publio Id unable to pay a prlco that will make It possible for the growers of food to feed that public. That is the reason a farm bloc exists In Congress. It was brought together to remedy Just euch a condition. It Yepresenta th se who raise the food of the nation and the members know that under tho present tendency of thlnpn, the farmers of the nation will eoon be bankrupt while the industrial workers are underfed. e Senator Capper of Kansas, leader of farmers, told the Senate tho other day that bran of a certain kind, which costs 122 a ton to produce finally cost :he consumer $500. Scmewhere between the farm and the home the border line of value is passed. The farmrs bloc may be wrong in principle but as long as fruit rots on trees while city dweller? need It to tone up their blood, special groups that are directly interested will be formed. o YOUR VALUABLES. Are you thinking, of buying the Russian crown Jewels, lncludlr.r the famous Orloff diamond? They are offered for sale by the Bo'ßhevlks. The price? A trifling $500,000,000. The whole caboodle of them, pried out of their golden crowns and scepters, could be carried in your suitcase. As far as being useful, the Russian crown jewels are about as valuable a a reck of broken glass. Their vr.lue is entirely Imaginary no more, no s than the imagination of man makes it. Queer thing la value. Ford Motor Company's latest statement shows that Its assets exceed 5400.000,000. Of th!, 5S1.026.633 Is Invested In real estate, the only Imperishable form of material wealth. Patents are listed at a value of only $110,740. .The company's good will Is entered as worth nearly $21.000.00C. This good-will is intangible. No eye CAn ee it. No scales can weigh it. Equally Intangible is the Ford Motor Company's greatest value the brain of Henry Ford. Or, to bo absolutely accurate, his intellect. Accumulation of values seems to be a national mania. There are fixed values such as gold, whose prico is set by law. There are sentimental values heirlooms remembrance, etc. s Value is the moat elueive thing on earth. It is the magician cf economics. You think you have obtained a small value. Suddenly it swells to enormous size. This is lncreasinr value Henry Ford fell into its embrace and from a poor bicycl repairman became one of the three richest American. In th) far corner are declining values ones that are deceptive, look substantial and permanent at ilrat, then shrink. A6k Wall street plunders who have ben causht in bear markets. Value skips about like a ilea. Rig fortune comes to the man who can guess where it will Jump next. Typical of this is real estate. Values are the poker chip of uncertainty. Ar.d cf all values, the only ones that have permanence approaching the perpetual are knowledge, fame and good deeds. These are the real wealth. No man is really poor who has created any of the three.

IX FORTY YEARS. Next Monday a celebration will be held in New Ycrk to commemorate the fortieth anniversary of me establishment of an electric light system. Fred A. Bryan, rre.ident of the local company, is authority for the statement that the metropolis is ono year b-hlnd South Hend which had such a system in 15 31. the system bircr composed of six big arc lights which in that day was the wonder of the ccmmui.ity and a matter of pride. Mors than half of the population cf this city wa alive before the modern light was in existence. About or.e half have accepted It as a thing which Las alway ben and can hardly realize a day when people were compelled to undergo discomforts by he old flickering ?u liprhts. the kero:ene lamps and the candles that preceded it. When these hghts wre rirst installed, reform societies stron-'ly condemnM them. They honestly tllevd that the electric light wm an invention of he devil, ar.d that It was really a sacrilege to

change the natural conditions of night and day and prophe.ld that the world would oon come to a bad end because cf its departure from the centuries old customs and habits. The electric Ucht has assisted greatly to change every habit of life ar.d the thought of the world. And it is a better world. It has multiplied the opportunities for development, for pleasure, for recreation, for real service. The nation admirr the thought of Abraham Lincoln sturdily digging out his education ty a flickering pine knot. The virtue was not In the blazing wood fire. It waa in the steadfast ambition and courage which could not be overcome by obstacles. What might Lincoln not have accomplished had he Leen able to turn his entire thought to his studies Instead of being handicapped by the primitive lights? Today the world looks upon many if not all of its conditions as fixed for all time and des not top to think of wha. wll! happen with the coming of new forces and n- v conveniences. It is aecu. 'ned to receiving Its heat from stovea or furnaces. Some day the drudgery of coal mining" will be obviifed by inventions which will store the heat of sur.mer suns for winter comfort. The tcsportatlon of food now occupies the attention ar'd the effort of hundreds of thousands of men. Chemistry will solve the problem of condensing steam into small packagee and there will be no wa3te. Tho methods of today will 6eem as crude twenty years hence as do the packing of heavy loads on the heads of Indian women to the western tribes. The era of electricity is in its infancy. Enough power goea to waste each day In the St. Joseph river to run every machine In operation in this city and light every house at midnight aa brilliantly as day. Some day that power will be chained andNharneaied to the use of men, releasing human energy. Forty years is a very brief time. It has sufficed to change all living conditions. The next forty can be depended upon to change them even more greatly than have the four decades Just passed.

FLYIXG SAILBOATS. Flying bicycles motorless airplanes propelled by pedal may be the next sensation In aviation. This is predicted by Glenn Curtiss, who, with the Wright brothers, pioneered the airplane. Curtiss tays that the whole science of flying may bo revolutionized by the recent Fading contests in Rerlin. A glider Is a flying machine without a motor. Most of the German gliders are monoplanes. In the Dcrlln contest one glider remained in the air mor'i than three hours. Curtiss attaches great importance to the Berlin gliding successes because the real goal of aviators is to be able to fly like birds. The pilot of a glider !s the closest approach yet to a "bird-man." Everyone is asking: "What keeps the darned things afloat and what prevents their falling?" In a general way, a glider is a lot lfks a box-kite. The gliding machine, in leavlnr the ground and soaring into the air, takes off from a high place. A hillside is best, for air currents rlslr: from tho ground roll up a hillside. like ocean waves up a cliff. Not as powerfully, but fiufflclently to lift the machine. The glider travels ahead on air currents. It Is like a sailboat on water. At first thought, it would seem that a gliding machine would have to flap its wings. Not so. It is like a gull, which glides in the air for hours with its wings practically motionless. .The German glider pilots are really air-sailors, adjusting the wines of their machines like changing the sails of a ship. The big difficulty in air-gliding is that air currents change and as yet there is no w-ay a flier can detect an air current until he is in it. Before man can fly like the bird he must develop an artificial substitute for the "air sense" that is part of the natural equipment of a bird. Hying without a motor, however, will always depend more on the skill of the pilot than on the machine itself. For practical purposes, the gliding principle may be best used In combination with motor airplanes, conserving power at Intervals by shutting down the motor and letting the air currents do the work. o CURBIXG MURDER. Two murders in this city within a week suggest that steps which prevent killings are preferable to the wasted times and effort in hunting the killers. The state of New York makes the carrying of a revolver, except when authorized by the police, a felony. It is quite certain that men who do not have a gun handy when their anger is aroused and their minds twisted by home made whisky will find it more difficult to kill than if they did not possess such a weapon. Mall order houses make the purchase of a revolver the easiest transaction for those who desire to arm themselves. In this city the police are without any knowledge of purchasers of revolvers. The man who buys such a weapon evidently expects to use it. He may have a very legitimate use for it. If he has, he will not be at all averse to having the authorities know that ho owns and carries a gun. If he expects to use that revolver for pome unlawful purpose, he will object very strenuously to such knowledge. An ordinance requiring all sales, of guns or ammunition to be reported to the police might r.ssist that department In curbing not only murderous tendencies, but in checking many of the hold vps and robberies that now form something of a problem. o Hunt the bright side. Suppose cantaloupes had seeds in the meat like watermelons? o The movi3 star of "Why Change Your Husband?" bar, changed hers. o Telephone girls object to being called helld girls. We might rail them gcodby girls. o Here Is a fortune. Get up aomcthinj to take louge off coats. 0 nsn (Denver Expres-s) A rum hound who is in Rattle Creek, Mich., to coax his liver out of sound sleep, notices this: Local fishermen, early In the morning, pack up and go milf away to fish in lakes and the Kalamazoo river. The rum hound, crossing a bridre over Rattle Creek, happened to look down. He saw the water alive with big bass. Moat of us are so firmly convinced that the best things of life are far off. that we overlook prizes under our very noes.

Passenger Train Hits Open Switch and Rams Freight on Siding. INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 1. Eleven persons were Injured when a Big Four passencer train ran through an cpen switch and plowed into the rear end of a freight train on a siding near Rrownsburg early today.

Members of the freight crew declared emphatically they had eloM the switch a'nd that it had !.-f r. opened, probably by vandals, after their train had pulled onto tho side track to give the passeneer the right-of-way. All cars In the passenger train except the Pullmans were derailed. Railroad cfTicials discounted a sabotage theory when it was discovered the lock of the switch hid not been broken. They said Indications were the passer.cer train d "split" the switch and that the w rk was an accident.

YOUR HEALTH

By Dr. R. S Copeland

There is an old saying that "appetite is the best sauce." When you look forward with pleasure to your meals and digest them without discomfort, you may bo confident you are in pretty good condition. On the contrary, los-s of appetite, unless it appears only occasionally and lasts but a little while, is an evidence of disease. Doctors give this symptom a special namei "anorexia." This 13 only a Greek word, meaning "absence of appetite." There are many causes for anorexia, but It may be put down as a fact that habitual absence of appetite Is a sign of poor health. Some of the underlying conditions are trifling, but, on the other hand, many of them are extremely ser ious. The most common conditions with this symptom have to do with the stomach. Simple gastritis, that is. simple inflammation of the stomach, may have an occasioral day when tho appetite flags, but there may be many days when there is a normal demand for food. But if the inflammation becomes chronic there may be constant loss of appetite. Th!a is Invariably the case in certain forms of cancer of the stomach. In that rare disease

called "cirrhosis of the stomach," where there are hardening and thickening of the walls of the stomach, los of appetite is a symptom. Many young girls have anaemia and absence of appetite is one of the signs. In tuberculosis at all ages it is noted. In Rrlght's disease and in all form of kidney inflammation it is mot very frequently. Excessive indulgence in tobacco, alcohol, opium and its derivatives and other drug addictions cauee loss of desire for food. There are various nervous conditions, like hysteria, nervous prostration and emotional Insanity, where anorexia is present. In the treatment of this condition, attention must be given the cause. It is not enough to prescribe a tonic. Of course, there are many useful appetizers, particularly the "bitter tonics," but before they are taken the general health should be considered. They are important, but since the anorexia Is merely a symptom it would be unccientiflc to disregard the fundamental cause. Whero loss of appetite follows a nervous disturbance, rest in bed. fresh air and quiet may help to repair the broken nerves and restore the appetite.

THE BOSS The other day'whlle in a store A man in anger paced the floor. "Hey you!" he shouted in his rage "Get busy there and earn your wage!" He snarled at people left and right. Scorned every term that is polite And made the men and women cower And all because he had the power. "Who is this mad man running wild?" I asked. "The Boss," she said and smiled. I stood awhile and watched him then In action with his fellow-men. He strode the aisles, too big to see The little girl attending me; Too big to nod his head and say -nood morning." in a kindly way.

And he goe out and puts the blame On one he's never called by name A timid girl who's never heard From him one kindly, cheerful word When they should truly charge the lost Unto the conduct of the boss. Who seeks cooperation here Should rule by friendship, not by fear. When power is arrogantly used Destruction's dynamite is fued.
