With the aid of laws, the the threat of exile and imprisonment, & few object lessons in the form of burned' ispaper offices and = beaten editors, the n tyrant has been able to stop the pub- . ion of comments and news which could n any way, interpreted as unfavourable to Miksolini or his party and government. r----phtre is in Italy today but one voice: that "oT the government, magnified by the police and faithfully, though often reluctantly, reproduced by «all the existing press organs. Though the public press should enjoy the confidence of its readers and should so conduct itself as' to merit that confidence, it is hoped e future welfare of the Italian people that the search every bit of editorial comment and news for evidences of propaganda before ac- cepting it as fact or honest opinion. People in - other countries, knowing that Svery line in every Italian néwspaper is now efully censored, do not find it difficult to un- ~ derstand why Mussolini is so consistently lauded: in the press of his country. It is no stranger than the praise ah officeliolder re- ceives from his own newspaper. C SIMPLE BUT WORTH TRYING fob What's the matter with the average country ? Too many laws. "It is no secret.

Parliamentary law, as a means toward reduc- ing diversified groups and opinions into intelli: gent action, is the chief malefactor.

'The: wes: shot: fig home! Wad been attacking, through tHe columns of his newspaper, the police foree of Canton on account 'of 'its lack of vigour in cleaning up , the vice situation in: that city. In revenge, it is alleged; he was murdered. : "Editors are often obliged,' from a sense of duty, to attack both persons and interests. It i may be that an official is lax, has become lazy, and is not actively attending te the work for which: he is paid. Even though he may be a friend of the editor, it is' the newspaper's duty to point out the official's slackness. Then comes the conflict. between personal friendship for a man and public' duty to a city. The editor must forget p¢rsondl friendships and remem- ber that his duty is to protect the interests of his city. He may not, like the young editor in Ohio, be required to lay down his: life because he has done his duty, but he frequently earns the dislike of individuals and of organizations. The conscientious 'editor can scarcely avoid this. It is amusing how; sometimes, but fortuii- ately not very trequently, an organization may openly demand' that the editor of' a newspaper must praise its wark. This is occasionally true of new enterprises which hope to be nation- wide in scope. If the editor does not see"the necessity for the new organization and says so; then he is in for a ditubbing. He receives all sorts of grdtuitous advice as to what his duty is and what sources of information he has neglected to consult. A newspaper represents ine people, and its editor must be 48 independent in his thinking about the problems of his constituency as' if he had*no friends at all. He must question, warn, encourage or, if necessary, attack, just as the occasion arises. * And the real mien and women will surely respect the editor's spinions and his conscientiousness: even 'though thew 'may differ with him in regard to His views. THE GASOLINE AGE One day during the past week-end, a gov- ernment seaplane hovered over a summer re- sort on the Georgian Bay. Round and round it flew, high and! low, and finally alighted like a huge bird on the waters of the laké. Soon it was in difficulty ; the rhachinery that was be- ing tested did not work properly. ' The plane cade its way to the beach and there stuck. A crowd gathered and people stood watching for two hours. They examiitied that plane in its every detail. Finally, a government truck aiid wale. pane rrived' and: pulled the cripled plane to land. Then was seen one of the' strangest' sights of this gasoline age. The plane made its way slowl¥ along the smooth' beach on its little wheels while fully: thirty automobiles followed it, ike small boys after a fire' truck 'or like : sparrows after a crow. The plane increased its speed and so did the ntotor' ,ears but, with- in five minutes, the plane was going at fully three times motor-car speed and then took to the air and flew out of sight. Several spectators were heard: to express' the wish that their grandpéiretits could have been present and could have seen 'that sight. What would they think of the results of rhan's' genius . which we now regard as commonplace ? ?

A REMARKABLE DECISION J (Brockville Recorder and Times) A 'magistrate in Saskatchewan has acquitted a woman charged with hav- driven a motor car when intoxi- caked, because the prosczuti ion had not proved: "guilty intent." idently, as the Municipal Réview' remarks, it is quite correct to be drunk while driving a motor car in Saskatchewan providing you have no guilty. intentions, and de not intend to run over anybody of damage property. Where have we heard that expression: "The law's 2a hass?" INSULT. TO INJURY An elderly man was cycling down the street when a dog rushed out from ofi¢' of the doors and, getting under his wheel threw him to the ground, in a sitting position. The dog, in a playful mood, ~ rushed round him, seeming to enjoy it. A boy stood gazing at the two 'or a minute, and then endgaired, in a quiet vaice:--"Did you fall?" "Well I should think I did," said the man, rising and re-arrang- 'ug his clothing. | "Ah," responded the youth, as he walked away, "I thought you souldn't have sat down to play js the dog."

When you read that a Southern phiydician says "The last measure to' be considered in the treatment ol constipation is the administra- tion of drugs," you begin to won- der what is coming over the med- teal profession: And" Yet' your family doctor will agree with the above, He suggests drusg to you because he is wise enough to know that some of his othe) 'suggestions to you will be absolutely disregarded. Dr. L. C. Sanders of Memphis, Tenn., who made the above state- ment, says that "the treatment is first, the removal of the cause; sec- mid the reéstublishment of the nor- mal intestinal' movement by regula- tion of hahits, diet, exercise and discontinuing medicines; third, if drugy are used the. use of drugs that are mon irritating, chiefly iquid petrolatum. Now the best advice he gives is the regulation: of the diet and ex- arvise. If fruits are used daily, the trouble is at once overcome in many cakes, However as the raw fruits have a tendency to irritate the skin, it is often advisable to stew Hen' before use, Exercise of course, is the ideal' cure for constipation, and in the experience of close ob- ervers, the failures are not one in hundreds wuere the individual is able and willing to do them regu- arly and properly. Jogging, or a stationary run, "of one hundred steps every morning, moves intestines up and down, and stithulates action. This' running also. makes the litngs breathe idre deeply, 'thus pressing against the liver' and' gall bladder, stirring them into action, and sending the bile down intestine, where it hal the power to stimulate movenient. Then the bending exercisés, roek- ing froni' side to sille, with knees straight, twenty times each side, or lying on floor and raising legs al most to the right angle, ten to six- teen times, twice daily, will be all the exéreise necessary. Of course there are those who are tbo ill or too old to take exer- ise and a little prescription used it a great many hospitals, is also inentiongd. by Dr. Sanders. It consists of: cooked pruhes (seeded), 1 pound dried figs, 1 pcund' dates (seeded), 1 pound agatagar, 2 outites; senna leaves, 2 ounces. The mixture is run' through 1 meat chopper several times until it ig thoroughly nfixéd, ahd 'then made info a cake, which is in cut into blocks' an ihch square! dose is one block taken at time.
