HEALTHY
MOTHER

Women who bear children and re-
main healthy are those who prepare
their systems in advance of baby's
coming. Unless the mother aids
nature in its prenatal work the crisis
finds her system unequal to the de-
1nands made upon it, and she is often
left with weakened health or chronic
ailments. No remedy is so truly
help to nature as Mothers Friend,
and no expectant mother should fail
to use it. 1t relieves the pain and
discomfort caused by the strain on
the ligaments, makes plant and elias
tic those fbres and muscles which
nature Is expanding, prevents numb
ness of limbs, and soothes the inflam-
nation Of breast glands. The system
being thus prepared by Mothers
Friend dispels the fear that the crisis
may not be safely met. Mothers
Friend assures speedy and complete
recovery for the mother, and she Is

The SEWAGE and
WATER PROBLEMS
YET UNSOLVED
Interesting Address On The Important
Subject BY DR.. Lederer,
OF Chicago.
by Associated Press.)

Los Angeles, June 29.-Compara-
lively few of the larger cities in this
country have completely solved their
sewage and water problems according
to DR.. Arthur Ledsrer, Chemist and
Bacteriologist of the Sewage Testing
Station, of the Sanitary District of
Chicago, who spoke before the Section
on Preventive Medicine of the Ameri-
can Medical Association yesterday.
DR.. Lederer also declared that 1t is
probably true that very few rivers In
the United States are safe raw for
drinking purposes; that small COM
munities as rule pay attention to
their sewage problem problem only
when they begin to smell it. "The
order of fresh sewage is not re.
pugnant, as is commonly supposed "
The speaker said:
I'm small bulk it appears a slight
yellowish, fairly turbid liquid, contain
ing a very varying amount OF finely
divided suspended matter, as we'll as
coarse. The layman invariably pfc
lures sewage as the dark, putrid liquit
found in stagnant sewers or septic
tanks

Sewage Problem.

sewage FToptcm.
AS a rule, the sewage problem can
not be spoken of without touching
upon the water problem. The sewage
problem of one today may become the
water problem of another tomorrow.
Pollution of surface waters is, in many
cases, an interstate affair, and usually
to prevent or eliminate such pollution
the good grace and will of many small
communities have to be depended up
on. Concerted action by such COM
munities is hard 20 obtain, and in
some cases, almost hopeless task.
There are several reasons for this:
Various communities seldom agree as
to the amount of pollution they are
responsible for. Some communities
depend upon the water supply they
are polluting, other do not. Natural
ly, the ones which do not are in no
hurry to remedy the condition. Lack
of funds. Lack of appreciation Of the
| common good
1T is true that the temptation to
discharge raw sewage into the large
water courses is great. We can only
remedy this evil with difficulty. A
reasonable line must be drawn some
where. The trade wastes of our large
industries have to be discharged.
Many of the trade wastes can be puri-
/ fled but partially. We have therefore
to confine ourselves to trying to keep
the large common drinking reservoirs,
such as are represented by the Great
Lakes, in a good, wholesome condi-
ton. The introduction of the purifi-
cation of sewage is an educational
task, much more so than the puriflca-
ton of water supply. You can dem
onstrate to the people in community
that the death rate from intestinal
disease is rising and that the water
supply is responsible for it. The peo-
pie will fight for pure water supply
and get it frequently in spite of fran
chised water companies and empty
treasures. Unfortunately, the dis
charge of raw sewage by one commun-
ity in most cases effects another.
Small communities, a rule, pay
attention to their ewage problem only
when they begin to nell It, Their

GOOD ROAD ERA HAS BEGUN
Once Constructed, Highways Should
Be Looked After RegularIy-Dust
Preventative Is Needed.

The good road era has begun in
many states, and already the steam
roller, the piles of crushed rock along
the roadside and the digging out of the
original roadway are familiar sights in
many of the eastern states. The
roads built are generally of approved
macadam construction, which, com
pleted, are perfect strips Of white rib
bon running through the green fields
and hills of the rural sections
These roads are perfectly built, and
as soon as completed the farmers and
other ratepayers contentedly sit back
and exclaim: These roads are now
good for generation or more without
trouble" This is serious error, and
one being made in many states. That
1t Is an error Is borne out by the dust
| cloud raised by passing car travel
ing at 20 miles per hour, or perhaps
faster.
Many fail to realize that whenever
dust Is raised a road Is being de-
stroyed. says the Motor Age. This Is
particularly the case on smooth mac
adam surfaces. where there is nothing
to hold the dust on the road, and
where every cross wind blows OF any
loose material.
AS soon as roads are built arrange
ments should be made to keep them In
repair. With roads 1t is essentially "A
stitch in time saves nine" Some dust
preventative should be used immedi-
ately macadam roads are completed.
in order to prevent dust.
Oil. tar and many special prepare
tons are now on the market, and the
communities should be educated to
looking upon these additions as a le-
climate part Of the road maintenance.
California has its oiled roads over
which motoring is a pleasure to the
motorist and not dust-bath to the cit
izen who happens to be on the road
the same day, or who has the misfor.
tune to reside along a well-traveled
highway.
| Massachusetts, proved last year that
road treatments are success and
more economical than continuous ap.
plications of water; and in England
dust preventing is always considered a
part of the road problem

Crack Filler.

When the housekeeper proceeds to
take up her old carpets and put down
rugs in their place the wide cracks in

But an inexpensive, easily made
crack filler can be made by dissolving

sawdust to make 1t OF consistency

filling before vanishing the floor.
