SELF DRUGGING.

Don't prescribe medicine for your
self unless you know the amount and
kind OF drugs In the preparation. Don't
take unproven remedies. Don't take
poisonous or habit forming drugs. In
other words, don't pour medicine Of
which you know nothing into a body
Of which you know less.
These are the vital points In an
article published by the U. S. public
health service in the public health
reports Of February II. 1915, which
discusses the limitations of self
medication from a different point oil
view to that taken by either the ard
ent advocate of household remedies Oh
the person who unqualifiedly con
demns all medicines. It is obviously
the right Of every human being &c
select and take his own medicine
provided he does so without harm u
himself Or to others. Yet SO man,
changes have taken place since the
days when our grandmothers gave III
boneset tea or molasses and sulphur
as spring medicine that modern self
drugging may be followed by disaa
trous effects. These may be direct a.
the result of harmful agents containe,
in the medicine itself or by reason o
an Improper method of administration

Most soaps and prepared shampoos

very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Just plain
mulsifed cocoanut oil, for this IS pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats soaps or anything
else all to pieces. You can get this at
any drug store, and few ounces will
last the whole family for months.

Bearing the whips and scors of life

Only n dead, neither rich nor proud,
Merely one of the surging crowd,

Facing whatever may come his way;
Silent. whenever the harsh condemn,
And bearing it all for the love OF

The war Is still the dominating In.

the United States is the only country
thus far receiving any offsetting a.
vantage whatever from the stagger-

devastating Europe. Spring has ar

waged with renewed bitterness and
vigor; no end being in sight at this
writing, except such as must develop
from exhaustion or breakdown.
American labor is free from the
curse of war. The proportion Of un-
employed may be large, especially In
great cities, but the number of jobless
is much smaller than might have
been expected in view OF so much de-
preston, because war has stopped

ton has been largely concentrated
upon the new form of blockade adopt.

Thus far this movement has not seri.
pusly aggravated the export situation

OUTLOOK
BRIGHT FOR u. S.

Henry Clews. the New York bank
er. gives the following interesting
statement Of general conditions now
prevailing In this country and states
that the most striking. also the most
assuring, fact in the outlook is the
remarkably strong financial position
OF the United States. Our fiscal af-
fairs are thoroughly modified upon
war basis. Nearly all the emer.
gency currency issued in the form of
Aldrich-Vreeland notes or clearing
house certificates has retired. Our
banking system is exceptionally
strong; and the Federal reserve sys-
tenn. with minor exceptions, is work
Ing very satisfactorily. Our good
supply is simply enormous. reaching
about $1.8co,OO 900. which is vastly
more than necessary for our require
ments. There is consequently no
need Of Ii importing gold, although
foreign exchange rates favor such an
influx.
Our merchandise exports are upon
an enormous scale. and promise to SO
continue for months to come. AS i'm
ports are declining, the trade balance
in our favor is steadily rising. To
some extent the void in imports is
being filled by a return of securities;
but much In the form Of foreign cred
its which are steadily growing in i'm
portance and volume. New York for
the time being is the chief open money
market in the world, and all, or near

be used chiefly for the purchase of
munitions of war. Until the war ends

Thomas A. Edison Now Build.
ing Plant at JohnstoWns for
That Purpose.

JOFINSTowN, Pa, Feb. e.-Thomas
A. Edison is now constructing a plant
In Johnstown costing between sci, 600
and $4,000. When completed, Johns
town will have a part IN, milking iiho
Edison disc records and when an Ed
lfson Is being played, soii9.,lvwu aid
the Cambria Steel Company will have
helped make the reproduction. w
Mr. Edison and the Cambria Steel
Company have closed contract
Iwnereoy Mr.. edison Gan build his
plant on the Cambria Steel property
and extract the benzol from the coke
gas that arises from the nine different
batteries OF the company. John Ba-
son, OF the Edison laboratories, Is in
charge of the construction and erec-
| ton Of this equipment and the Job has
already been started. When complet-
ed, 1t is believed, the by-product OF
the Cambria ovens will furnish from
1000 to 1900 gallons day.
Benzol is valuable in the softening
LOT rubber and much used In the max
ling Of photograph records. Until the
European war broke out, It was SCI
cured at only about three or four
points In the United States, the bulk
OF the stock used In this country be-
Ing secured In Germany. With that
source cut off, the price OF benzol has
just doubled since the opening Of the
big struggle and the 100 per cent in>
crease in cost has been the cause OF
opening up OF the Johnstown field.
