Mexico City.-Following a line of
reasoning based upon many years of
experience, scientists announce that
the real cause of the revolutionary
fever in Latin-American republics is
not the desire for glory on the battle
held, but is lodged in the ever-p1esent
nea. 1t is asserted that sleep, undis-
turbed by ravages of parasites, is
practically unknown in Mexico. and
the states further south. For this rea-
son, entomologists contend that the
explosive temperament, of the aver
age Latin-American is in part, If not
wholly due to the fact that restful
slumber departed from the country
long before the conquest. The scien-
lists assert that no nation can be
great whose sleep is broken into fit
ful snoozes. The average Mexican is

ASK A 1918 CHILD LABOR DAY
Speeches Are Sought from 6,01c
Clereymen Who Aided Movement
Last Year.

New York-The 5000 clergymen
who last year observed Child Labor
day are being asked to speak on that
subject For seven years the national
child labor committee has issued such
an appeal and the interest aroused
by the last Child Labor day resulted
In a general demand for the passing
of the federal childrens bureau bill,
in improved child labor laws in ten of
the fourteen states holding legislative
sessions and an increasing use of lee
ture slides and exhibits about child
labor
The day has never been used as an
appeal for funds and this year special
attention is called to child labor in
tenement house manufacturing The
national child labor committee also re-
minds clergymen that child laborers
become unskilled adult workers, and
the Chicago vice commission gives as
the second greatest cause why 40,0Oe
girls are sacrificed annually to an i'm
moral life the economic stress of in
dustrial life on unskilled workers, with
the enfeebling influences on the will
power" This cause the commission
gives as second only to the lack of

CARE IN WASHING STOCKINGS
Simple Precautions That Add to Life

Those Who Wear Them.

In washing stockings the first es-

poor policy to take in the rlnsing wa
ter left after the white clothes are
out, for that leaves the stockings
covered with specks of white lint
Put the stockings in right side out,
rub well. and repeat the rubbing on
the wrong side. If the color is at all
delicate. rub the feet first and then
the legs in order not to have the lat
ter long in the water
Rinse well in water of the same
temperature. wiring dry, and hang
from the tops of the stockings SO
that If water settles, leaving lit
tie discoloration, it will be in the toes
instead of in the leg. The most OF
the black stockings now are fast col
ors and give no trouble.
If colored stockings show signs of
running or fading, the color may be
set with alum or salt water, only one
should bear in mind that alum will
set the dirt as we'll as the color
Silk stockings need to be washed
well. then rinsed in lukewarm water,
