New York and Chicago WEDNESDAY, AJRIL 18, 1928 EE IEA THE EXCEPTICN Some of the things printed in a newspaper ave as disagreeable to the newspaper itself as to the sincere critics who would prefer to see less or none of the so-called "scandal" "news. But in the performance of what it , conceives to be its duty to print the news, newspapers at times like the magistrate or ' judge on the bench are confronted with un. . pleasant obligations, There can be no justification for a news- paper that in cold-blood panders to the lows instincts of its readers or peddles filth and obscenity, 'Not many Canadian newspapers do this, though they are more numerous in the United States, It is a question whether the worst vietim of such publicity is not the medium through which it reaches the pub. lie, Much by way of earnest criticism has been said of newspaper publicity of crime, It has never been satisfactorily proved that news of erime begets crime, As a matter of fact ' the evidence is rather that there is no con. ' nection between them, It is possible that some person may get a wrong slant on domestic relations by the . news of divorce cases, but this slant will not prevail outside of shallow thinkers, for to "ull others it must he apparent that in most ' instances it is 'only the unusual that gives events the distinction of news, If all domestic life were corrupt and de- cadent, there would be no news value in chronicling domestic misfortune, It is be. cause the vast majority of marriages are ! successes that the overwhelming number of ! homes are wholesome, that the vast bulk of people are law-abiding and good citizens that "the exceptions assume news value, gamma UNCIVILIZED CHINA i The average 'Canadian still knows as little about China as the remotest coolie knows ol Canada, Most people in this country think of China as an entity inhabited by a fourth . of the human race and spread over an area as large as or larger than Canada, The truth is that China is as complex as Russia, The native of one part cannot under- " stand the native of another and there is no tie binding them into a national brotherhood, China does not have a central or national government in the Western sense, There are as many governments as there are war lords with armies that stay loyal, but the lines of .| contre! shift like shadows on a field. One reason for China's lack of national unity is her poverty in railroads, good roads and othor means of communication, There are only 7,000 miles of Chinese railways, compared with 265,000 in the United States, and China's {racks and rolling stock have peerrpermitied le deteriorate. Relations between th2 several political divisions of China are no closer than those between the severai nations of Europe, and Europe with her higher state of civilization, widespread edycation ané greater in- dustziel progress is tormented by inter- national strife, so conditions existent in China are not surprising. nore LEVITY AS A BALANCE WHEEL It is not recorded who first said "a little nonsense now and then is relished by the best of wan" But whoever it was, he might with equal necwracy have observed that a great deal of nonsense is relished at any time by nest 1 in i ess or pleasure, a laugh is as wingrily sought as anything clse that may se on the program.

They laughed and cried:in their mother's arms, : In the very selfsame way. And both seemed pure and innocent As falling flakes of snow, But one of them lived in the terraced house And one in the street below, Two children played in the selfsame town, And the children both were fair. But one had curls brushed smooth and round, The other had tangled heir. The children both grew up apace, As other children grow; But one of them lived in the terraced house And one in the street below. Two maidens wrought in the selfsame town, And one was wedded and loved, The other saw through the curtain's part, The world where her sister moved. And one was smiling a happy bride, The other knew care and woe; For one of them lived in the terraced house, And one in the street below. Two women lay dead in the selfsame town And one had tender care. The other was left to dip alone, On her pallet so thin and bare. One had many to mourn her loss-- For the other few tears would flow, For one had lived in the terraced house, And one in the street below. If Christ, who died for rich and poor, Jn wondrous holy love, Took both the sisters in his arms, And carried them above. Then all the difference vanished quite, For in heaven none would knew | Which of them lived in the terraced house, And which in the street below. ge difficulties and to perceive the laugh- able side of the thing when fate drives him Spring floods have seriously interfered with The Times paper supply, the mill of the being temporarily "under water," Pending shipment from another mill which is "help~ kindly supplied will prove as interesting to the fear of getting down and out and having [At s Glance Now all that they have to do to the celebrated "Royal is 10 condemn the boat on which the dance took place and sink At. ia Well, the fliers have started ont for New York now.

The cause is faulty elimination. The intestines are shirking their proper work, Instead, of cleansing the body of poisons, they are harboring harmful bacteria, Intestinal indigestion and intestinal poisoning are the results of the way we live and eat today.

This food is yeast--a tiny fresh vege table, as much a product of nature as a crisp lettuce leaf, It trains the intestines to clean chbms selves through its action on the waste matter and the walls of the alimentary canal. Three cakes of yeast a day--before or between meals--have become in four short years the Great Healch Habit of Canada. Prescribe this diet for yourself. Give it a fair trial.
