APPENDICITIS ALWAYS A FOE
Viennese Surgeon Says Mortality Is
Decreasing Among AduIts-Most
Serious in Children.

London.-Dr Hans Salzer, a Wen
nesse specialist. has just delivered a
lecture on appendicitis before the
Vienna Medical society. DR.. Salzer
does not think that appendicitis will
ever be entirely eliminated, although
owing to skilful treatment mortality
from it has already been reduced to
about per cent. in the case of adults.
Appendicitis in children much oftener
ends fatally, the mortality here rang
ing from Is TO 80 per cent
The faculty, said DR.. Salzer, is
making very strenuous efforts to com
bat this death rate. He secuted the
idea that in the care of children the
veriform appendix being an undevel-
oped organ is larger in proportion to
the length of the caecum than in the
case of adults and is therefore more
subjected to Inflammation. He also
denies that appendicitis is more DIFF.
ficult to diagnose in children unless
they are of very tender age, say I'M
der two.
DR.. Salzer does not believe that ap-
pendicitis IN children is Of q more
serious nature than in the case OF
adults. The high mortality. he CON
tends. is due to the fact that chill.
dren are brought to tho consulting
room at too advanced q stage Of the
disease and so are operated upon too
late.
The symptoms I'm children. II fs
true, are so varied that they are not
easily recognizable by parents, but
said the lecturer, they should be
patent to any practiced physician. DR.
Salzer is strongly Of opinion that the
lay public should familiarize itself
more with the early symptoms so that
prompt action may be taken.

ALL MY PIMPLES GONE
Girl Tells How BIotchy Skin Was
CIeansed BY a Simple Wash.

"I was ashamed OF my face" writes
Miss Minnie Packard Of Altamahaw,
N. G. cit was all full of pimples and
scars. but after using D. D. D. Pre-
scription l can say that now there is
no sign of that Eczema, and that was
three years ago"
D. D. D. has become so famous as
a cure and instant relief in Eczema
and all other serious skin diseases,
that its value is sometimes overlooked
IN clearing up rash. pimples, black
heads, and all other minor forms Of
skin impurities.
The fact is, that while D. D. d. Is
30 penetrating that it strikes to the
very root of Eczema or any other seri-
Gus trouble, the soothing Oil of Winter
green, Thymol and other ingredients
are so carefully compounded there IS
no wash for the skin made that can
compare with this great household
remedy for every kind of skin trouble.
D. D. D. is pleasant to use. perfectly
harmless to the most delicate skin,
and absolutely reliable. A 25-cent
bottle will give you positive proof of
the wonderful effectiveness of this
great remedy.

Because Blue is sick. This is the

INTERCOLLEGIATE FOR A PEST
Reputed Truthful Correspondent OF
Allentown, Pa, Tells How Cater.
pillars Are Exterminated.

Reading, PA local newspaper
prints the following from its Allen
town correspondent. whose reputation
for truth and accuracy is first class:
"Elihu Batdorf. quarryman, liv-
ing near Breinigsville, claims to have
solved the caterpillar question. The
other day he happened to spill a
small quantity of nitroglycerin over
some bushes. Shortly afterward b e
heard a series of sharp explosions
coming from that direction. Upon
going to investigate he found that the
caterpillars were devouring the ex-
plosive, that they would scarcely
more than taste it than they would
drop to the ground and blow up with
a loud report.
Being an ingenious man, Mr.. Bat
dorf Immediately saw great POSSIBLE
tiles in this great accidental discov-
cry and began to experiment He
reasoned that pure nitroglycerin
would be rather expensive for the
destruction of caterpillars, but found,
after several trials, that an ounce
of the explosive mixed with about
four gallons of water would answer
perfectly.
Spraying a tree with this mixture,
which costs only few cents, rids 1t
of caterpillars in few minutes. Be
fore the spraying is completed the
caterpillars begin to drop and ex-
plode. and in a minute or two there Is
a continuous fusillade, sounding like
volleys of miniature musketry.
ct is found, too. that the shock
of the explosions effectually destroys
all of the other pests on the tree. Mr..
Batdorf has applied for a patent, and
is organizing a company to exploit his
discovery"
