Dear Mr. Editor
Political enemies have been freely
stating that I was responsible for a
letter of two issues ago signed rate-
payer.
This is just to assure my fellow citi-
zens that I did not write, prompt, in-
spire or have anything, directly or in-
directly, to do with same. I have al-
ways been bold enough to affix my
signiture to anything I have written.
Furthermore my relations with the
present council in public matters, Fed-
eral and Provincial, have been most
cordial
Faithfully yours,
Geo. Spotton.

'Maul, Words Get Credit
for Ending Hiccoughs
A, di#ferenee of opinion has arlsen.'
he Seattle as to how to cure • a :bad,;
case at hiccoughs. A short time age
resident r veryc
a Seattle est had a badase,
to a hospital was cured,
was sent oap tel and u d,
but that did not close the incident.
The hospital's official report was
that the hiccoughs stopped after ad-
ministration of adhesive binding and
lemon juice. TYnofiiciai versions, how-
ever, are to the effect, that an eas-
perated nurse sharply told the patient
to quit being a fool, and that was the ,l
last of the hiccoughs;
It is a good subject toargue about,
because everybody knows all about
how to cure hiccoughs. One does not
have to be a doctor to prescribe in a
case of this kind; in fact, being a
doctor is rather a handicap. The laity
has snore hiccough cures than were
ever in any medical book, and can cite
cases where evere one of the cures
has worked. It can be proved, by
afldavits If necessary, that eating
vanilla ice cream has cured a hie-
eougher after the doctors had given up,
and that the application of a silver
tablespoon, lee cold, to the back of
the neck has been instantly effective.` 1
Seattle is welcome to what pleasure
it can get out of arguing how to treat
hiccoughs, but in the longrun the sharp-
tongued nurse will get as many votes
as any of the experts.—Spokane

Aztecs Well Versed in
Science of. Astronomy
.A study recently issued by the Mex-
ican ministry of foreign affairs de-
scribes at length the advance made in
astronomy by Mexico's first inhabit-
ants, the Aztecs. "One of the out-
standing facts in the history of the
first inhabitants of Mexico is the
marked progress that they achieved
in astronomical science," says the re-
port as given out by the Pan-Amer-
ican information service. "It is indeed
remarkable that a people presenting
so many evidences of primitive life
should have been able to reach the
exact and scientific conclusions that
their records indicate. The early Mex-
icans had two calendars, one civil and
the other religious. The first consisted
of 18 periods of 20 days each, with an
additional 5 days. These 5 days were
devoted to feasts and festivities of
different kinds. The religious calendar
consisted of 13 periods of 20 days
each. The 20 day period of the civil
calendar was divided into 4 periods
of 5 days each. Fifty-two civil years
made a century. To every century the
Mexicans added 13 days, which cor-
respond to the days we add for leap
year."
Snake as Insignia`"'t
Various medical fraternities and
sororities, as well as the United States
public health service, United States
.Army Hospital corps, etc., have in
their crests or insignia a representa-
tion of snakes. The caduceus or wand
of Hermes or Mercury, messenger of
the gods, has been the insignia of the
healing profession for thousands of
years. It consists of two serpents
twined on a staff, with wings. Accord-
ing to LaWall's "Four Thousand
Years of Pharmacy," the symbol of
the serpent played a prominent part
in 'the healing ritual of both the
Egyptians and the Babylonians and
dates back to at least 4000 13. C. The
same authority claims that it is Es-
culapius whose emblem the caduceus,
originally carried by Hermes and dat-
ing from Egypt and Babylonia, is 'still
seen in connection with medical in-
signia.
New Vegetables Analyzed
Educating the public to the food
value of the host of new vegetables
i continually being brought from all
1 over the world to enrich the American
diet is a task of the bureau of home
economics, The chemical content of
each dietary newcomer is analyzed
and its nutritive value accurately
computed, according to Popular Me-
chanics Magazine. Chinese cabbage,
broccoli, dasheens and many other
common vegetables of' today were aI-
most unknown in this country a few
years ago. Chinese cabbage, for in-
stance, has been found to have .a fuel
value of about seventy-five calories a
pound. It Is about 95 per cent water
and the outer leaves are waste. The
rest is made up of nitrogen, fat, ash
and starch.
Famous Men of Long Ago
Razi or Mazes was an Arabian
physician who lived from 852 to 932.
He is noteworthy as being the first
man to describe smallpox and mea-
sles in an accurate manner. Hugbald
or >;iucbald was a Benedictine monk
and writer of music. He was born at
Tonrnai, France, about 84b. He later
started a school of music and other
arts at Nevers. He was the inventor
of the gamut. The only work posi-
tively ascribed to him .is the Har-
monica institution. He died' in 930.—

Complicated Ciphers
A cryptogram is a cipher used in se-
cret correspondence whereby the
sego Is interwoven into a book, story
or Just a sentence. A special key is
required to know bond to understand
and put the letters together. Probably
the best known Cryptogram is the one
believed to be contained in the books
of Shakespeare, proving according to
some authorities that he ryas not the
author but that the real author had
laboriously woven Into the tett the
facts of the case through a compli-
cated cipher. i..:;

hurried of to the Queen. Mary Hos-

fatefully appreciated. Please send
