y Many Men and Women Are
Badly Handicapped.
When you are so run :down in health
that it impairs the eflcioncy of your
work as well lee your power to •enjoy
Your; leisure hours,, ore obtain rest, it
is time you looked, to the cause. If
you do not, a serlous breakdown is
almost sure to result sooner or later.
In nearly all cases this condition,
which doctors usually describe as
general debility, is due to poor blood
—blood that is deficient in red cor-
puscles. When the blood isethin and
weak your whole system suffers. You
lose appetite, have no energy, your
nerves trouble you and you feel rest-
less.
What you need is help to build up
your blood and you should begin at
once to snake your blood rich and red
by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
You will soon notice the difference in
your 'health by a better appetite and
increased vigor. The reason is that
the new blood created by Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills stimulates all the
organs of the body to healthy' activity,
and so the system gains nourishment
and strength.If you aro weak or out
of sorts begin gaining new strength
to -day by taking Dr, Williams' Pink
rifle.
You can get• these pills from your
druggist or by mail at 60 cents a box

BABY CHICKS, C.O.D.
BY D. D. SLADE.
The modern •hatcheryman must fol -
kw modern, business methods, that's
certain. If he has 'salas problems to
solve, he must solve them in a modern
way. His hatchery is like a factory:
eggs are the raw material; baby
chicks are the finished product. The
• factory must be kept working at ca-
pacity to keep overhead and produc-
tion costs down. Sales must keep step
with production,
In the early 'days of the baby chick
Industry selling was simpler. Once
the pzvblic got the idea that baby
chicks could be bought in the market
like apples or handkerchiefs, it was
necesat y only to tell it wlmre the
• chicks could be bought, for everybody
wanted to buy them. But it wasn't
4ong before the problem complicated
itself. Competition developed rapidly
and hatchery'nien had to beg in to use
their brains in working out selling
problems. Quality production proved
Go be the best solution of the quantity

mean satisfied customers. •Here is
one method to help reduce the added
cost of producing quality chicks.
In carrying on the business of the
Kertueky Hatchery, we make it our
regular practice to have the customer
pay .d.elivery charges upon his chicks,.
All shipments of our chicks are made
by express or parcel post,, shippin:'
charges collect. We +know this is en-
tirely different from the usual custom,
but we are able to do it because our
chicks are high quality and our cus-
tomers are so anxious to get them that
they willingly pay the shipping costs.
It means only a slight extra expense
to them, but to us the aggregate sav-
ing is a very material item.
In any case, it seems logical to us
that the customer should pay delivery
charges. In practically all other busi-
nesses where delivery is Made by mail
or express, this plan is accepted with-
out question. We make it a matter
of -fact . proposition, emphasizing it
clearly in our catalogue and price list;
,people simply make up their minds
they '"Want Kentucky chicks and. `the
question, of a small delivery charge
does not deter them from ordering..I
It is an easy' step in the same -direc-
tion to sell chicks on a C.O.D. basis,
which we have been doing regularly.
A $1 deposit is all that is necessary
to secure the booking and•shipment of
an order, no matter of what size. We
require this nominal deposit to show
us that the customer is in earnest in
his desire for the chicks.
Last year 60 per eent. of our busi-
nests was handled on a C.O.D. basis,
with entire satisfaction. We found
that the percentage of returns was
very small: such chicks as were re-
turned were brooded in our own stor-

Hunting Cancer
To Its Lair
Dr. Louis Sambon, as Test 'of
Cancer Theory, Plans Con-
,,centrated Research ` in
Isle of Man
London. --As soon as the sanction
of the Ministry of Health is obtained
the Isle of Man will become the
centre of a concentrated cancer re-
search to be carried out by Dr. Louis
Sambon, one of the world's leading
cancer experts.'
He plans to make a minute exam-
ination of the flora and fauna of the
island and to leave no stone unturned
in the hope of finding' a cure for the
disease. Dr. Sambon, who is working
under the direction of the British
School of Tropical' Medicine, has in-
timated that he already has a theory
regarding the origin of cancer and
hopes )iy this means to find support
.for his theory.
With the aid of -street maps and
medical registers he plans to make a
thorough check-up in all the island
districts of persons who died from
cancer in the last fifty years and all
cancervictims now living.
"If my previous experience counts
for anything," he said, "I will dis-
cover that -cancer clusters -in well-de-
fined areas where the people living
there are liable to be attacked.
"My colleagues and I win 'then con-
duct a minute examination of the ver -
,min in each district, especially rats,
mice, cockroaches, cellar beetles, and
various kinds of worms. We have al-
ready established a theory and we
want to see how it is supported."
Dr. Louis Sambon, au authority on
tropical diseases, who almost twenty
s -ars ago reported the cause of pel-
lagra and later investigated the cause
of malaria when he lived in the mus-
quito-infected Roman Campagna, has
In recent years dev9ted his attention
to cancers
In 1925 he announced a belief that
the disease was •parasitic. His de-
claration was printed in The Journal
of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene,
Published in London, and received
much attention. Cockroaches, cellar
beetles and other insects were the
contagion carriers,he wrote.
Last April Dr. Sambon reported in-
vestigations on 'cancer -in villages in
Northern Italy, where he had search-
ed death records and street maps and
isolated whole sections as "cancer
streets" and "cancer villages.": At
that time he made the request, sup-
ported by medical authorities, that
the ..British Government and public
should subscribe to a fund to carry
out further research into this theory
and set apart a region for mass 1.

Disorders in Russia
Paris Temps: The rupture of rela-
tions with Britain andthe tension of
relations with France, the impossi-
bility of obtaining credits from obroad
and the virtual ostracisation of the
Soviet Union have put the Soviet
rulers in a difficult poeit1on at the
very time when they have to grapple
with opposition at home which is gain-
ing power day by day. For some time.
now attempts have been reported from
various sources to renew relations
with London and in a recent speech
the British Prime Minister, Mr. Stan-
ley Baldwin, allowed it to by under-
stood that the British Cabinet would.
not refuse to consider re -opening re-
lations with the Soviets as soon as
they were ready to conduct them-
selves according to the obligations
and rules of international courtesy.
At an examination a boy, asked to
state why a tiger is striped, wrote:
"It is striped because it makes it bet-
ter for circus proprietors. If a tiger
escapes from a circus it is easier to
find him tha nit he had no stripes.
He will not go far without someone
noticing that he is not a horse or a
dog, on account of his stripes, and
calling up and asking the circus peo-
ple if they have lost a tiger."

Crime and Punishment in
England
"The prison population of Great
Britain is under 10,000 and the num-
ber of prisoners serving sentences
over ilfteen years is infinitesimal,"
states P W. Wilson, former Member
of the British Parliament, in Decem-
ber Current History. "For fifty years
the number of murders has been uni-
form at about 150 per annum in spite
of the fact ,that the population has in-
creased. The death penalty is ap-
plied only about fifteen times a year."
Mr. Wilsonattributesthese good con-
ditions to the fact that prompt arrest
and trial may e taken for granted and
there is unified enforcement of law
with Judges appointed for life and ir-
removable. The British police, more-
over, are unarmed, and firearms in
general are permitted only under a
strict and personal license. The great
efficiency in identification methods
and detective work of Scotland Yard,
"whose officials are appointed for life
with prospect of pension and are
thus far removed from political in-
fluence," act as a strong deterrent
force ,as also does the known diffi-
culty of escape due to the guarding of
frontiers and coast lines. throughout
Europe\in general."
