HE National Guard Of the
~ District of Columbia, as
represented by the three
officers who have just re-
turned from the maneuv-
ers near San Antonio. Tex. seems to
excel in general work. 1 believe our
guard knows more about the sanitary
problems and sanitation in connection
with camp and knows more about
extended order work than many other
state organizations. While We were in
camp In Texas / noticed that the Texan
militiamen were splendidly yersed in
writing camp orders and field orders.
but otherwise the District seems to eX
eel in the matters I have mentioned.
This is from Capt. William II. Nc
Cathran, 1st Infantry. who has just re-
turned from San Antonio with Capt.
Harry e. Burton. "a Infantry, and Capt.
Robert johnson. 1st Infantry. IN con-
versatton with Star reporter at
brigade headquarters yesterday Capt
McCathran outlined some of the work
he and his two fellow-offcers had been
through for the last two weeks. Camp
sanitation. subsistence. field hospital
and ambulance work, tactics, practical
problems. preparation of marching or
from the typewriter orders issued to
the National Guard officers who were
there.
An attack Of one open position across
a stretch of three thousand yards was
one OF the features OF the two-week
instruction. IT was considered an i'm
possible position. but the element of
taking advantage of cover was the
main feature OF the instruction. Get
ting the recruits hardened to marching
seems to have been the one big idea Of
the army officers during the past two
weeks

moderate drinking is harmless has
been now SO thoroughly broken that

ATTITUDE OF MEDICAL MEN
Use of Alcohol for Medicinal Purposes
Rapidly Diminishins-Does Not
Stimulate Heart.

DR.. Richard C. Cabot contributes the
following explanation as to the pres
ent day attitude of physicians towards
alcohol:
The use of alcohol as a medicine
is steadily and rapidly diminishing.
1t is true that the use of all drugs
has also fallen off considerably, but
this change is more striking as re-
CARDS alcohol There are three main
purposes for which alcohol has been
sed as medicine:
tD As quick stimulant-for faint
ng. exhaustion, and extreme cold
This service doctors now generally
agree is better performed by hot cot
fee. hot tea or hot soup. The heat
is the main thing.
I'd AS a support to the heart in
heart disease and in fevers Here the
use of alcohol still continues, but it is
constantly and steadily diminishing
because research has shown that it
oes not stimulate bad or good heart
ction. as was formerly supposed.
Some physicians believe that alcohol
helps the patient in his fight against
the germs, but the weight of opinion
Is against this. BY most physicians
alcohol is still occasionally used in
'evers and in diabetes for a purpose
still to be mentioned.
(3) As a food. Though alcohol is
undoubtedly a poison to the nervous
system this harmful effect is neutral
lied in some cases of illness by the
fact that it does supply fuel and en-
ergy to the body. When other foods
are rejected (wholly or in part) by
the stomach or when, as in diabetes.
certain common foods cease to bene-
fit the body. alcohol may be valuable,
but this is comparatively rare"
In a recent article in the Boston
Medical and Surgical Journal DIR. Ca
bot contributed some interesting fig
ures showing the diminished use of
alcohol in the Massachusetts General
hospital. The figures. showing also
diminished use of other drugs as well,
have been arranged in both tabular
and chart form and used as an ex-
hibit at the Boston 1915" exposi-
ton.
IN 1898 the hospital expended
total for alcohol drinks of s2,322, or
&c cents per patient These figures
were Increased the following year to
$4,000, or 81 cents per patient. Since
that time there has been a steady de-
crease. and in 1907 the total cost of
alcoholic stimulants used was but
1913. or 13 cents per patient Dur
Ing the same period the cost of other
medicines administered also de-
creased, not because of lessened
prices for drugs. but because fewer
medicines of any sort are now admin
istered.

THE LITTLE WIDOW
A Mighty Good Sort of Neishbor to
Have.

"a little widow, neighbor Of mine,
persuaded me to try Grape-Nuts when
my stomach was so weak that it
would not retain food of any other
kind" writes a grateful woman, from
San Bernardino Co.. Cal.
81 had been Ill and confined to my
bed with fever and nervous prostra.
ton for three long months after the
birth of my second boy. We were in
despair until the little widows advice
brought relief.
81 liked Grape-Nuts food from the
beginning, and in sn incredibly short
time X gave me such strength that l
was able to leave my bed and enjoy
my three good meals a day. In 2
months my weight increased from 80
to lis pounds, my nerves had steadied
down and I felt ready for anything.
gain so rapidly, and still more so
when they heard that Grape-Nuts
alone had brought the change.
MY 4-year-old boy had eczema very
bad last spring and lost his appetite
entirely, which made him cross and
peevish. put him on a diet of Grape
Nuts, which he relished at once. He
improved from the beginning, the &C.
zema disappeared, and now he is fat
and rosy, with a delightfully."- soft. clear
skin. The Grape-Nuts diet did it. will

Public Spirit Run Riot.

sive an public-speerited as any town
in the state" said Zedekiah Brush. as
he drove over the hills with the sum-
mer boarder.
Fact is. some of us think the Sc
lec'men use the tax money little too
freely keepin' pace with the speerit
of progress that seems to be in the
air nowadays. Here, in the last year.
he town hall has had a new roof. an
a new boss shed has been built around
the church, an new handle put in
the town pump, an bridge costin'
most 5000 has been built over Plum
Crick. The town clock has been put
in repair at cost of S12.60. an
they've put three dozen new books In
the town liberty, an now they are
talkin' of offerin' firm bonus O.
5000 to start pickle factory in the
town. Once lot O. selec'men git
the progressive fever, an the tax
money flies. Public speerit is all
right, but us taxpayers has to foot the
bills when it runs riot the way 1t

SOME CRUEL AND UNUSUAL
Double Penalty Threatened for Those
Who Dared to Interfere With
the Wires.

Rotorua has been laughing over the
wording of notice that has been
place by the Public Works depart
ment on some of the electric wire
posts on the road to Okere. in New
Zealand
Some time ago Maori youth, who
seemed to have misguided taste for
experimenting, threw long piece OF
cable over the electric wires that run
to Rotorua from the power station at
the Okere Falls.
The town was at once plunged in
darkness for two or three hours until
the mischief had been located.
The dusky and youthful expert
menter was carpeted in the court and
fined for his scientific enthusiasm,
and the department put up this no.
