THEY REFUSE TO EAT

At periods Tn most chlldrens' lives theyfail to relish their meals and refuse to eat even the delicacies prepared to tempt their appetites. They lack ann bition, and growth seems impeded, which causes anxiety and worry.
 To compel them to eat is a grave mistake, because nutrition is impaired. Healthful exercise in fresh air and sum- shine is important, but equally import ant is spoonful of Scott's Emulsion three times a day to feed the tissues and furnib food-energy to improve their blood, aid nutrition and sharpen their appetites.

 Bureau Established.
 Since the German medical forces not only must handle disease but also prevent it where possible, the strict est possible watch is kept on all food stuffs. A bureau has been estab- l l1shed which maintains veterinary , surgeons, examines slaughter houses,

and prosecutes purveyors of impure foods.
 In order that existing needs might be supplied, the exportation ban in Germany on certain medicaments was lifted, and Poland today is in posi- tion to receive all that it needs in the pharmaceutical line. Pharma- cists in Poland are required to list all of their supplies, and speculation in such supplies has been reduced to a minimum by heavy penalties.
