1t is a well-recognized fact among
physicians today that a greater part OF
all sickness can be avoided by keeping
the kidneys working properly.
This is even more important than for
the bowels to move regularly.
The kidneys and bladder are the fl
terers and sewers of the body. and they
must filter the blood and keep II pure.
When they fail to do this properly, you
suffer with pains in the back or sides;
have bladder or urinary disorders. lum-

TARANTISM DISEASE
OF SUFFRAGETTES
German and English Scientists Believe
that Militants Are Suffer-
ing from Il.

According to several medical author
tiles, the suffragist suffers from del
mite nervous disorder in more or less
violent degree. The medical term for the
complaint is tarantism.
The disease. in its incipient stages at
least. is durable. The malady is chiefly
confined to women and is classified with
st. Vitus' dance. Special Investigations
in the matter have been made by DR.. A.
E. Shipley, OF Cambridge, England, and
by German scientists, who confirm his
opinion.
The malady completely baffied the thy
sicians OF early times. Between the four
teenth and sixteenth centuries II spread
throughout Europe.
Medical authorities believe that the pres
ent demonstrations, especially in England,
are simply a recurrence OF this ancient
disease.
The symptoms of tarantlsm may be
readily recognized. One of the most COM
mon habits of the sufferer is the monoto-
nous and rhythmical utterance Of some
word or short phrase.
In more advanced stages there Is a loss
OF self-control. It is suggested by some
medical writer's that the sufferer should
be deprived OF personal liberty, even In
the early stages OF the malady.
The sufferers have been found to show
a marked preference for certain colors or
combinations of colors. Many Of the pa
tients are violently affected by music and
their paroxysms are brought on by music,
or at least much increased in violence
These symptoms have much in common
with St Vitus' dance. whose victims are
also affected by certain colors and by
music.
The treatment for tarantism Is sir liar
to that employed with more familiar ner-
vous disorders. The patient is removed as
much as possible from all excitement A
complete change OF air and scene is usual
ly prescribed.
Only the simplest foods are permitted
and the sufferer is encouraged to take as
much outdoor exercise as possible. to-
gether with cold baths and vigorous mas
sage. Such treatment has been found to
bring relief within a few weeks
1t has been found that even when the
sufferer seems TO have lost all control
over her understanding she will be found
sufficiently composed at intervals to obey
the instructions the doctor or attendants
may give.
1t has been found extremely difficult to
work a complete cure in the more violent
cases which have been neglected. Years
after the victim has apparently been Lom-
pletely restored TO her normal health any
undue excitement is likely to bring on a
relapse and a recurrence Of the distress
ing symptoms.

DETAILED REPORT FROM
REAR ADMIRAL FLETCHER
IS EXPECTED HERE TODAY

The arrival Of Rear Admiral Fletcher
at Tampico. where he was sent to lool
into the situation in the oil districts ir
view OF the demands for landing parties
OF American bluejackets to protect the
vast properties there, was reported tc
the Navy Department yesterday. 1t is
expected that some time today a detailed
report will be received from the admiral
He is accompanied on his flagship, the
Rhode Island, by John Lind.
Reports emanating from unofficial
sources in Mexico regarding the great
danger to the oil properties near Tampico
are not yet confirmed by official dis
patches received at the State Depart
ment. Officials are looking forward TO
Admiral Fletcher's report as the best
possible statement of the situation
which seems likely to be available. and
there is a universal hope that he will
find things quite different from what
they are represented to be by the owners
of the oil properties.
Officials here express every confidence
that the danger of foreign complications
growing out OF the rebel menace of the
oil properties no longer exists They are
relying upon Admiral Fletcher TO hold
Gen. Aguilar, the rebel commander, TO
bis promise OF protecting properties of
foreigners in the oil districts.
British Cruiser Arrived.
The British cruiser Suffolk has also
arrived at Tampico, Admiral Fletcher re-
ported. Great Britain now has vessels
at Puerto Mexico, the terminus of he
Tehuantepec railroad, a Pearson prop
erty. and at TampicO. where are many of
the Pearson oil properties. 1t is insisted.
however, that the arrival of these ships
at these vital points denotes no lack Of
confidence upon the part of Great Brit
ain in the measures taken by the United
States From other sources than the
State Department, however, itNis dis
tinctly- understood that the British gov
ernment felt it absolutely imperative to
take positive precautions. and the more
especially so because Of the demands of
its citizens in Mexico. regardless of the
position of the United States.
So far as the administration was con-
cerned. the Mexican situation had a com.
plete holiday today. Secretary Bryan did
not go near his office. and other officials
contented themselves with telephoning to
the department, to learn that no messages
of unusual importance had been received
Every report received here yesterday,
official and unofficial from the border re-
gion, tended to confirm the reports of the
rebel victory south of Juarez.
Sir William Tyrrel, private secretary
to Sir Edward Grey, called on President
Wilson yesterday. and was engaged with
the President for a considerable period.
Leaving the White House. Sir William
stated that the purpose OF his call had
been to pay his respects and say good

This marked Sir William Tyrrell's third
call at the White House since he came

ago, was followed Immediately by spe-
cific instructions to Rear Admiral Fletch-
