The United States acquired the
Virgin Islands from Denmark for
$25,000,000 in 1917. The price for
these possessions (area 133 square

Study the above drawing for
a few minutes. Notice particu
larly how the bile flows from
the liver into and out of the
gall-bladder and thence into
file small intestine where it
mixes with the partly digested
food just below the stomach.
Bile is a necessary adjunct to
proper digestion. Its absence
fr&m the intestines inevitably
causes putrefaction and fer
mentation.
NATURE’S DANGER
SIGNALS
When your stomach, liver,
and gall bladder have been
upset by improper eating or
drinking, or when they are not
working well because retained
and putrefying food matter in
your intestines is poisoning
your entire body, your bile
stops flowing freely and you,
sooner or later, begin to feel
some of toe following symp
toms:
Your breath may become
unpleasant (halitosis), your
tongue coated, a bad taste in
your mouth, your coffee (and
tobacco) lose their natural
flavor, your food does not agree
with you; you may have head
ache, heartburn, gas and dizzy
spells, you may be troubled
with belching; at night the
gas in your bowels may press
upon your bladder making you
get up frequently, thus break
ing into your sleep.
In the morning you are tired
instead of refreshed. Gradually
your health is impaired: you
have constipation, gas, putre
faction and self-poisoning
(“intestinal toxaemia” or
“acute gastritis” as many doc
tors call it).
HOW TO GET RELIEF
You can relieve this condi
tion, usually overnight, by
taking Calotabs at bedtime and
drinking water freely next day.
Calotabs are a thoroughly
dependable laxative designed
to effectively relieve symp
toms of biliousness and acute
gastritis due to constipation
or faulty digestion, and to
promote the flow of -bile
through the intestines.
Calotabs are pleasant to take
(sugar coated), prompt and ef
fective. Try them and see. Fol

Name Calling
Is Profitless
By Lawrence Gould
Does calling names
Answer: Not often, if ever. It
relieves your feelings (though it
may make you feel guilty later)
and perhaps wins you some sym
pathy from people who already
feel as you do. But expressing
your hatred of someone — which
is aU calling him names amounts
to—neither changes him nor helps
you to deal with him more effec
tually. It merely distracts you
from the tasks of understanding
why he does the things you fear
or dislike and what can be done
to counteract them. To a mature
mind there are no “viUains”—
only grown - up "problem chil
dren.”
Can yon be sure a psychiatrist
will help yon?
Answer: I’m afraid not—in fact,
I doubt whether any honorable
man would guarantee to cure a
given patient. But if you are men-
taUy UI, remember that -your very
doubt of whether psychiatric treat
ment can “do any good” is part of
your illness; it grows out of the
get you anywhere?
resistance your unconscious mind
sets up against a process which
may weaken its hold on you. If
you find a doctor whom you can
trust “some of the time,” take
your doubts to him and discuss
them along with your other symp
toms. He won’t mind, and prol>-
ably can help you overcome them,

Does reading ability improve
with practice?
Answer: Under normal circum
stances, Yes. Up to your limits of
fatigue, the oftener you do any
thing, the more it tends to be
come automatic, and therefore to
be done faster and with less ex
penditure of effort. A competent
book reviewer really can get the
gist of a whole book in the time
that it would take most people to
read, say, two or three chapters.
But if you’ve acquired bad read
ing habits — like just looking at
words without stopping to think
what they mean—the more read
ing you do, the less you will un
derstand or remember.

Glutamic Acid Improves Intelligence
By Dr. James W. Barton
I HAVE WRITTEN a couple of
times about the use of glutamic
acid—an amino acid—in helping
to brighten the mind. This dis
covery was first reported by Dr.
C. C. Pfeiffer, professor of phar
macology, Illinois College of Medi
cine, who stated that glutamic acid
brightened the wits in a series of
69 mentally defective children one
and one-half to 17 years of age.
More recently an editorial in
The Journal of the American
Medical Association” stated that
glutamic acid had been found of
great help in the mild form of
epilepsy (petit mal). Still another
group reported that they had ob
served a rise in mental age and in
telligence quotient in adults.
Since the above favorable re
ports, some research workers have
stated that they failed to obtain
favorable results in treating “back
ward” children with glutamic acid.
In view of the above favorable
and unfavorable reports, a not un
usual occurrence when any new
drug or method of treatment is
child is bom); that is, the lowest
form of intelligence.
Generally speaking a moron has
an intelligence quota of from 80 to
90, an imbecile is much below this,
running from 50 to 60, but an idiot
has little or no intelligence, al
though he is lively and imitates
well.
It would naturally be expected
that little or nothing can be done
to increase the intelligence of a
mongolian idiot, but in “The Amer
ican Journal of Psychiatry,” Drs.
F. T. Zimmerman, Bessie B. Burge-
meister and T. J. Putman report
their study of the effects of glutam
ic acid in 30 definite cases of mon
golism idiocy or mental backward
ness and 30 non-mongoloid control
cases.
announced, it is of interest to learn
that glutamic acid has been found
to improve the wits or intelligence
in what is known as mongolian
idiocy (which is present when the
While too much should not be
expected in all cases of mental
backwardness, parents of back
ward children would do well to
discuss this method of treatment
with their family physician.

Spokesman of God
Lesson for November 27, 1949
G OD MAKES USE of strange
characters. What shall we
think of a preacher who tried to
beg off from being a preacher?
What can we make of a man who
actually reproached
God for forcing
him into the minis
try? How shall we
rate a man who in
time of war urged
his own nation to
surrender, who was
believed by almost
nobody, who was
repudiated by his
own class and even Dr. Foreman
his own family?
What can we say of a man who
was often in hot water with the city
authorities, who spent months of his
time in jail, who was called subver
sive, and who never got along with
the established religion of his
time?
The prophet Jeremiah was that
man; yet posterity honored him.
His own generation thought him a
liar. But some then knew, as we
know today, that he was a teller
of God’s truth, a spokesman of God,
• • •
Was he a pessimist?
W E KNOW (Jer. 1) that Jeremiah
did not wish to be a prophet
in the first place, though unlike
Isaiah he shrank back not from a
sense of sin but because he thought
of himself as a mere child.
We know (chap. 20) that at times
he was thoroughly discouraged
about himself, and even cursed the
day he was born. It is also true that
in the last war waged by his little
country of Judah before it was
smashed, his advice from begin
ning to end was “Surrender.”
No wonder people thought him a
pessimist, a calamity-howler. But
before we call him such names we
must remember two things. First
is, that his unwillingness to be a
prophet, and the fact that so to
speak he hated the job, marks a
vital fact: he, perhaps even more
than other prophets, sensed the dif-_
ference between his own ideas and
what God was saying through him.
Even when what the Lord
said was not what they them
selves would have wished to
say, they spoke for ihe Lord
nevertheless. The other thing
to remember is that when
everybody wants to believe a
pleasant lie, and a man comes
along telling the unpleasant
truth, he is not a pessimist, he
Is simply stating facts.
Jeremiah stood by the facts as
God gave him insight to see them.
If they jailed him for it, he could
not help that; but they could not
shut his mouth nor close his eyes.
• • •
Was he a patriot?
J EREMIAH was constantly ac
cused of acts and attitudes which
today might be called “subver
sive,” though he dearly loved his
country. This was because he dared
to rebuke the ambitions of his
country’s leaders.
They said: Our country shall be
free! But Jeremiah knew it would
not be free. They said: Our king
will conquer! Jeremiah knew he
would end his days a prisoner.
Jeremiah was unpopular, to put It
mildly, because he advised his
country to take the only place
among the nations it could take—
an humble one.
Then, as now, many persons
think that patriotism means be
lieving yours is the perfect
country. If anyone points to in
justice in our land, some one
may yell, “Deport him!” But
Jeremiah showed what is a
true patriot. He is not necessar
ily the man who approves all
the foreign policies of his na
tion (Jeremiah approved not
one), nor the man who speaks
only good of his country and his
people.
The best patriot is the person
who, seeing his country as God
sees it, will dare to speak out
against evil wherever he finds it.
mm*
A Way to Know God
J EREMIAH knew God well, and
the trouble with his contemporar
ies was that they did not know God.
But Jeremiah did not say: “Know
God by becoming a prophet like
me,” for he knew that only a few
are called to be prophets. Neither
did he say, “Go to church oftener,”
for you can see in chap. 7 what he
thought of the Temple of his time.
He pointed to the good king
Josiah (chap. 13). That king had
found God, not in a mystic vision
like Jeremiah’s, not in burnt of
ferings and sacrifices, but in the
doing of justice, looking out for the
exploited, caring for the helpless,
seeing that justice was done.

How to Prepare Tnrkey
C LEAN TURKEY by removing
all feathers. Singe and use
tweezers on pin feathers, if neces

body cavities lightly as stuffing ex
pands during roasting.
For a turkey over 12 pounds,
wrap strips of clean cloth around
end of each leg
bone and tie
with string. Cov
er cloth with
shortening. This
prevents lower
leg from drying.
Tie leg bones
together and
fasten string under the tail to hold

that he would engage them in con

accent.
He was riding on the “under

When the conductor passed him
the American couldn’t resist his
little joke. “I beg your pardon,”
he said, “but didn’t you drop

If You Are 85, 45 or 3,
Hadacol Helps All Ages
MRS. DOUCET
HADACOL is good for all ages,
bringing five of nature’s B vita
mins and important minerals to
the young and old alike. Recently
the HADACOL folks received the
good news that among the count
less thousands who had been bene
fited by HADACOL was a lady of
85, a man oi 45 who felt like ha
was 18, and a beautiful little girl
only three years old.
Mrs. Edmond Doucet, of Church
Point, La., is 85 years old, hav
ing thousands of friends in the
picturesque Evangeline section of
Louisiana
where she
was bom and
has spent all
of her life.
These friends
are happy to
know that
Mrs. Doucet
feels better
now than at
any time in
two years
and gives the
credit to HADACOL.
“I had been sick for almost two
years and was suffering with gas
tric disturbances and bloating. I
was run down, had lost weight and
had to stay in bed most of the
time. I lost courage and felt that
there was no hope for me.”
Mrs. Doucet had tried many
preparations without apparent
beneficial results when she heard
the glorious news about HADA
COL.
“After taking several bottles of
HADACOL I felt like a new per
son,” said Mrs. Doucet. “I eat any
thing I want without ill effects and
sleep well. I feel much stronger.”
Neville Dugas, of Route 1, Box
101 B, Carencro, La., is a success
ful farmer who had worked early
and late at all kinds of hard work
and it wasn’t
so long ago
that he won
dered if he
would ever
be able to
work that
way again. He
had tried
many medi
cines, but felt
no better.
“I had all
kinds of stom
ach disturbances,” said Mr. Dugas.
“My stomach was so bloated that it
felt like it would swell up and
burst. I suffered with gastric dis
turbances, heart bum and was run
down and nervous. I had no appe
tite and suffered with headaches
and I couldn’t sleep at night. I was
so drawn and pale that my friends
had difficulty in recognizing me.
MR. DUGAS
JOAN
After the third bottle of HADA
COL I felt a real improvement and
after the twelfth bottle of HADA
COL I felt like I was 18 instead of
45. I am feeling perfectly well.”
“My three year old daughter,
Joan, had lost her appetite,”
Mr. Dugas. “Her cheeks were pale
and she cried often. I started
giving Joan
HADACOL
and after
three of the
large economy
size bottles
she is now
healthy, has
an excel lent
appetite and
her disposition
is perfect.”
AU three of
these people
were suffering from a lack of B
vitamins and the minerals which
HADACOL contains. HADACOL
comes to you in liquid form, easily
assimilated in the blood stream so
that it can go to work right away.
It is easy to understand, therefore,
why countless thousands have been
benefited by this anmzing tonic,
HADACOL.
A lack of only a small amount
of B vitamins and certain min
erals will cause digestive disturb
ances. .. ..Your food will not agree
with you. . . . You will have an
upset stomach. ... You wiU suffer
from heartburn, gas pains and your
food wiU sour on your stomach and
you will not be able to eat the
things you like for fear of being
in misery afterwards. Many people
also suffer from constipation. And
while these symptoms may be the
results of other causes, they are
surely and certainly the symptoms
and signs of lack of B vitamins and
minerals which HADACOL con
tains. And if you suffer from suck
a deficiency disorder, there is ne
known cure except the administra
tion of the vitamins and minerals
which your system lacks.
It is easy to understand, there
fore, why countless thousands have
been benefited by this amazing
tonic, HADACOL.
So it matters not how old you are
or who you are ... it matters not
where you live or if you have tried
all the medicines under the sun,
give this wonderful preparation,
HADACOL, a trial. Don’t go on
suffering. Don’t continue to lead
a miserable life. Many persons who
have suffered and waited for 10 to
20 years or even longer, are able .
now to live happy, comfortable
lives because HADACOL supplied
the vitamins and minerals which
their systems needed. Be fair to
yourself. Temporary relief ia not
enough for you. Give HADACOL
a trial!—Adv.
