and the man who may have been max

down to the 81 or even to the SOLO
level without particular detriment
either to himself or to his similarly
placed neighbors. The total wealth of
Germany is 60.5O0,0O and even If the
actual war wastes were s2.00O,O00 a

10 less than one per cent OF the ac-
cumulated wealth OF the fatherland.
THE average death rate in Germany
is probably 20 per thousand, or 1,200,-

you have only doubled for one year

the normal rate were lessened from 20

Next winters diplomatic reception
at the White house would be an inter
esting occasion for the non-combat-
ants. but there is no certainty that
such eception will be held. Custom
requires the president to receive once
a year for the diplomats. Usually
this reception is held early in Janu-
airy. Because of the death of Mrs. VIII
son. however. and the unpleasant state
of affairs in the diplomatic set, 1t is
likely that this reception, as well as
all the public receptions at the White
house next winter, will sbe called off.
Public May Own Stock.
If President Wilson's plan for the
construction of a line of government
owned steamships for the South Amer
lean trade is adopted it will be posi-
BILE for small investors everywhere to
own stock in the enterprise and have
Uncle Sam for a partner.
1t is planned to capitalize the line
at first for $4,000, 900. and for the
government to own only 81 per cent
of the stock. The rest will be sold
at a par value of 800 share. and it
Will be offered to the public generally.
1t is possible that the government may
guarantee the interest rate, making it
an attractive investment.
Although this plan of financing a
government enterprise may seem q
novelty to most people in the United
States. it is not the first thing of the
sort Uncle Sam has done. The govern

PROTECTION FOR VILLA.

The city commission can hardly
shirk the responsibility for providing
adequate fire protection for the Villa
de Chantal. II the situation demands
the laying OF additional mains, even
though they must be placed on private
property, some provision should be
made for the work. The Villa is one of
the city's prominent institutions, a
worthy one and one which is doing a
good deal to advertise the community.
and these facts entitle it to attention,
even If the more important considera-
ton OF the preservation of human life
did not enter into the question.

Acid IntoxiCation in Children.

4 frequent group of symptoms in
children from two to ten years of age
is called "acid intoxication" by doc
tors, but commonly called worms" by
grandmothers and medical manufac
turers.
The child becomes listless, loses ap-
petite, acquires a coated tongue and
seems more or less feverish, usually
more. At TIE same time there may be
indications OF a slight sore throat or
a so-called "cold in the head" which
doesn't materialize Instead the child
develops a peculiar, frequent. ineffect-
ual cough. A whitish or blush line
appears about the mouth, with duski-
ness or unusual flush on the cheeks
The eyes look abnormally bright. The
nervous twitching and perhaps slight
delirium alarm the mother. Nausea
and vomiting may or may not be pres
ent, but constipation is the rule.
Tho Worms Have II.
So far the doctor holds his own in
the diagnosis contest with grandma.
But about this time a new symptom
develops, and puts the doctor out of
the game, leaving grandma to rejoice
in her vindication. A characteristic
heavy, sweetish odor on the breath
and this symptom has clinched the
popular diagnosis OF worms" since
Noah and his numerous household va
Gated the ark.
This sweetish odor is that of ace
tone, which is produced by fermenta-
ton in the alimentary canal, and alb
'orbed into the blood, to be eliminated
partly by way of the breath. II is the
poison which causes the drowsiness
and feverishness OF the attack.
The attack almost invariably passes |
lway in a few days. The very nausea |
md distaste for food protects the |
.hild against mistaken effort to "nour- |
sh" him with fermentable food.
Sugar Not Guilty.
One contributing cause for this con-
ition is insufficient sugar In the |
hild's diet. Revolutionary though |
his may sound to those who just know
ugar makes worms. IL is nevertheless

strangers now, might characterize the
relations which exist between some of
the ambassadors. While personally
they probably retain their esteem for
their brother diplomats, officially the
ambassadors OF Germany and America
are mad at the ambassadors from Great
Britain, France, Russia and Japan, and
won't speak when they pass on the
street or rub elbows at social func-
lions.
This is the correct diplomatic usage.
When nations are at war their diplo-
matte representatives in neutral cari-
tails sever all relations. 1t is true that
Count Won Bernstorff, the German am
bassador, and NJ. Jusserand, the
French ambassador, have been good
friends for a number of years. Now
they do not recognize each other when
they pass on the street.

WAR AIDS LAND MOVEMENT

War has not only raised food prices
but it has given a marked impetus to
the back to the land" movement
nearly all over the United States. This
tendency is already noted by the
agents Of the government reclamation
service who are disposing of the
farms which are being prepared for
settlement through irrigation projects
The war has once more demonstrate
ed the independence of the farmer and
while there is an apparent unrest in
other professions, the farmer above
all has before him a prospective sea
son OF unbounded prosperity. Whether
or not the sudden rise in foodstuffs is
arbitrary or is the natural result of
economic conditions, the fact remains
that people realize more than ever the
tiller of the soil is assured of an
abundant living in any crisis.

acid intoXication. Prompt catharsis
with simple laxative like milk OF
magnesia is always beneficial. Social
ed worm medicine" if it gives any
relief at all, owes its effect wholly Il
the laxative and alkaline ingredients.
Physicians sometimes give large doses
or ordinary soda (saieratus) in water
administered as an enema. The idea
is to neut-alize the acid so far as pos
sible. Much drinking water and little
or no food while the fever is high are
advisable for the same reason.
The child is usually sick enough
without being forced TO swallow medi-
cine on purely circumstantial evil
