equipment of medicines.
No sooner had the idea been con
ceived than it was put into effect. The
matron's room was converted from a
dismal cherries place into a bright,
wholesome appearing ward that any
hospital would be proud to claim as
its own. Two white enameled cots were
placed along the wall. Waterproof
paint turned somber walls into attrac-
tive ones, and the matrons shone even
more ~splendidly in spotless garbs,
topped off with lace bonnets.
Then the attention of Miss Eichel-
berger was turned toward the dis
ease itself. Test tubes were purch-
ased, with her own funds; a miscro-
scope was procured, and the midnight
oil consumed. And this is what was
revealed-that currencitis was caused
by the glare Of the piles of simmer
ing gold pieces and dazzling silver
present in the treasury.

revealed with a necklace of beads
about her throat and three scarabs,

long, black hair, under which were

Seeing Much Gold Makes Employees Ill

e EAR of the spread of the white
L plague and TYPHOID fever were rele-
gated to the dusty past the other day,
when 1t became known that a new all
ment had seized upon the woman
clerks Of the treasury. So swift has
been the disease in it's progress that
1t has been necessary to establish an
emergency room in the basement of
the treasury, and an average of five
cases a day are treated.
Currencitis is the name of the new
enemy hat has spread terror among
the fair clerks. It's symptoms are an
acute attack of dizziness, sharp pains
in the neck, followed by a severe
headache. So far, the medical profess
sion of the District has been unable
to determine whether the ailment is
conveyed by germs.
Miss Iva Eichelberger, who is in
charge of the new emergency room,
has made a study of the cases brought
under her observation. Miss Eichel-
berger was surprised to see the great
number of young woman clerks who
would stumble into her room, gasp for
a bottle of smelling salts and then
fling themselves upon a couch, COM
planning of racking headaches, necks
stiff as boards. and a dizzy sensation.
After a brief treatment, they would
recover and go back to their desks.
1t was then that Miss Eichelberger
suggested to Chief Clerk Wilmeth the
installation Of an emergency room,

BARLEY THRESHED BY MOTOR
Ohio Farmer Breaks Record for Time
When He Adopts Electrical Meth
cd for Quick Work.

William Stroop, who has a farm in
the Miami valley, near Dayton. o.,
a a crop Of barley that he wanted
threshed last fall, so he sent for the
owner OF the local threshing outfit to
DO the work. He came with his 49,
inc separator and his big steam trac-
ton engine and proceeded to set up
for business.
MI. Stroop had been using a IT,
horsepower electric motor about his
farm buildings for cutting and
grinding feed, saving wood, etc., shift
ing 1t to various positions, as desired.
and making connections with little
trouble. He suggested to the owner
or the thresher that the motor be used
IN place Of his engine, to which the
latter agreed, though his engineer
doubted the ability of the small motor
10 run the separator at full capacity.
The machine was set, however, and
the belt adjusted. and when the pow
er was turned on its strength was
speedily demonstrated by the rapidity
with which the sheaves disappeared
and the grain poured out. Hour after
hour the work proceeded without
stopping, and when the job was fin
lshed 1t was found that in less than
Il hours more than LOO bushels of
grain had been threshed, an average
of $50 bushels an hour.
