WORMS IN CHILDREN
Cause Trouble When Their Presence Is
Not Suspected.

How often we hear a mother say THAT
child eats so much l believe he has
worms! A variable appetite is imrne-
diately suggestive of worms. But of the
other common symptoms of worms very
few mothers Know anything. Thousands
of children and, adults whose food does
not nourish then, properly have worms
but are treated for other diseases, because
worms can exist and seriously impair the
health for a long time. and all the while
the Sufferer is being treated for some 9TH
er disorder. Recovery Is rapid just as
soon as the proper treatment is given tor
the removal of the worms.
Signs of worms are indigestion. va
riable appetite: foul tongue offensive
breath; hard and full belly with occa-
eyes heavy and dull; itching of the nose
short. dry cough; grinding Of the teeth (;
starting during sleep; slow fever anu

different cases. s-4.4s So s.
where it is impossible for even a skillful
physician to make an exact diagnosis,

Starboard beam to the storm. Soon the
vessel was rolling in manner most
dangerous to, the cable The wind in
creased and great green seas boarded
the starbcard bow, swept along the
deck and escaped through the port
scuppers Towards night everything
was made fast. The rain ceased but
the storm continued undated through
out the night. These We're anxious
hours for the men charged with the
safety of the cable. Two courses We're
open, either to keep on the true course
or to cut and buoy the line. Both We're
fraught with danger.
All chances Were fully weighed and
the vessels bow was kept to the south
west. Tuesday, the 18th. brought no
Improvement in the weather conditions
One particularly heavy sea boarded
the starboard bow and swept the deck
from fore to aft, smashed the scullery
light and broke the gangway ladder
One of the cooks of the galley was bad
ly scalded by a cauldron of spilled
soup. The saloon steward was hurled
against door and severely bruised
and injured. AT times the ship rolled
terribly and it seemed that the great
strain would prove disastrous to the
cable.
The dynometer regulating the speed
OF the line and the strain was fiuctu-
ating wildly at such times rushing
from an indicated strain of two tons
or less up to four and even five tons.
The breaking strain is eight and three
quarters tons and failure to relieve
the strain promptly meant disaster, as
the loss of that line in $500 fathoms
Gus delay in the completion of the
work of laying the cable.
On Wednesday, the 18th, the weather
improved, everything ran smoothly and
fair progress was recorded On Fri
day, the first section of the cable, meas
uring 929 nautical miles, was finished
and the vessel was stopped, at o'clock
on Friday night. to make the change
to the after tank, containing the sec
ond section. This hazardous operation
was successfully carried out in a little
more than an hour, and progress was
resumed. For "a hours ending at noon.
Sunday, the 21st, 217 knots of cable
We're laid.
The next day was notable for two
things, the crossing of the Vancouver
Australian cable at o'clock in the
morning, and the receipt of the first
batch OF news from San Francisco
From Tuesday noon to Wednesday
night the deepest water was crossed
raging 5000 fathoms. Christmas day
was not a pleasant one to the people
on the SiIvertown. Throughout the day
n gale blew with the end of the deep
sea cable in sight and with it the
necessity of cutting or buoying the end
After o'clock in the evening the Sill
vertown's speed was reduced in order
to bring her to a suitable buoying place
toward daylight. Between and 3
O'Clock. three soundings We're taken and
preparations were made to buoy the
sea end.
The cable was safely buoyed in $50
fathoms Of water. A marked buoy was
dropped as near as possible to the cable
buoy and the vessel stood by until
O'Clock III order to get the bearings.

she arrived at noon, Dec. Is.
