THE ORIGIN OF ADULTS

Burns figures are duplicated from
practically every other country.
Save Babies and Make Soldiers.
Continental Europe and, more latter
ly and more leisurely, Great Britain
are establishing medical inspection of
children at school and, to a less de-
gree, at home, to reduce the infant
mortality. They seek thus to have the
doctor do for other children what he
has been able to do for his own.
Medical inspection came in Great
Britain as sort of by-product Of the
Boer war. A London journalist, Of the
staff of the New Statesman, in relat-
ing the discovery Of babies in the
United Kingdom, said that during and
after the war many would-be recruits
suffered from physical defects and an
official inquiry was set on foot to in
quire into physical training in Scot
land. The report was. unsatisfactory
as regarded the conditions found. BY
bold hypothesis, certain observers,
however, were led to inquire whether
these spoilt adolescents had not once
been younger and DR.. Leslie Macken-
zie verified this induction by a visit
to the North Canongate slum of Edin-
burgh, where certain small creatures
were found, who might be regarded as
inchoate specimens Of the spoilt SOL
diery already encountered. Having
examined the children at school then
the first official medical inspection
in Great Britain-he came to certain
conclusions which led to general in
quiry in England also. 1t seemed
probable that no known type of dumb
bell, Indian club. or strangulation ap-
paratus for strapping ones self to
ones bedroom door, would have the
effect Of Strengthening knees bent by
ricketts, or replacing teeth lost ten or
fifteen years before. Then came med
ical inspection Of schools in Great
Britain as it had come in Germany,
France and other nations earlier.

the cotton. Take your silkoline or
other goods; steam it up in the usual

form slip; now Slip it on the white
comforter and tie enough to hold it in
place. When comforter becomes soiled
take the slip off and launder; hang
the cotton on the line. Beat lightly
with the carpet beater; youswill have

POPE REVIEWS HIS
EFFORTS FOR PEACE
Emperor Francis Joseph Is Said to Be
Cooperating with the
Pontiff.

Rome, Oct. l6.-An active exchange Of
kilograms between the pope and the
papal nuneio at Vienna indicates that
the efforts OF the Vatican to bring an
end to the war have been redoubled.
1t is understood that the moment for
this action is regarded as most favorable
because the death of the king Of Rou
mania has made a profound impression
upon Emperor Francis Joseph, who fears
that he may die before peace is accom-
plished and who realizes the tremendous
responsibility that would be placed upon
a young and inexperienced successor in
such circumstances and the consequent
danger OF the dissolution of the empire.
For these reasons Francis Joseph is
cooperating with the pope in his peace
despite apparently hopeless and
insmmountable difficulties.

planned battle on ground of their own
selection. The fighting which resulted
was of the most severe character. For
two days the Germans made a deter.
mined effort to cut through our lines
but because of the peculiarly advantage
Gus positions held by our troops they
failed Finally they were compelled to
give way and have now been driven back
more than 20 miles. While the fighting
continues, it is almost entirely to our
advantage.
"The German center was finally pierced

Russian forces and the wings were COM
