And after all, the discomfort was not
so great, for we had ordered our beds,
mosquito nets, ETC., sent from New
York, and we're fortunate in finding
them waiting for US at the custom
house. That reminds me of my sur
prise when we were obliged to pay |
duty on anything made outside Of the
United States, in spite of the fact that
duty had already been collected in the
United States.

At first the natives quite ignored us.

Some Mohammedans in San Francisco
had written to a high dignitary that
we might be expected and they hoped
every possible obstacle would be put
in our way, and as the Moro's idea OF
an obstacle seldom falls short of death
you can see the danger was very real.
The first day we did go out, accom-
panied by the bishop and an armed es-
cort, we took the precaution to leave
note of instruction with Mr.. Ellis,
the banker, telling what should be
done in case we did not return.
Yet we did go out and nothing hap
pened. And after a few weeks both
Miss Young and myself went out quite
alone. When Miss Katherine Buffum
also a volunteer, joined us, she took
charge of our industrial class, which
was a great success, and Mrs Tryon
the trained nurse, started in with
will to assist Mr.. Thompson, who hac
charge of the dispensary, supervised
by Col. Charles Lynch. By the way
we were told before it started that We
would be lucky If we had three pa

days we treated nearly six hundred

Washington, d. Secretary Dan

he has written to President Garfield of

in the navy during the past two years.
Mr.. Daniels wrote in reply to Mr.. Gar
fields request for material to meet
statements that the United States is
unprepared for military emergencies.
Excerpts from the letter follow:
''There are now in active service,
fully commissioned, 225 vessels of all
characters, which is SO more than

came secretary. There are also 10l
vessels of various types, in reserve and
in ordinary and uncommissioned, cap

submarines, three gunboats and nine
auxiliaries) which were under con-
struction March l, 1918.
''All vessels in active service and
in reserve are supplied with munitions
of war. Within the last two years
the quantity of all has been steadily
and greatly increased. For example,
we have increased the number OF
mines on hand and in process of manu-
facture by 244 per cent and torpedoes
by 80 per cent. By the enlargement
of the naval powder factory we shall
soon be able almost to double its
former capacity, and like enlargement
of the torpedo works and the equip
ment of plant to construct mines will
still further increase the quantity o.
such stock, and the possession of thes'
plants in times of emergency will en-
able the department to be in a bette
state of preparedness as regards thu
supply of ammunition than ever be

HOW TO STOP DANDRUFF
AND LOSS OF HAIR

Here is a simple, inexpensive treat
ment that will almost always stop
dandruff and scalp itching, and keep
the hair thick, live and lustrous: At
night, spread the hair apart and rub
little resinol ointment into the scalp
gently, with the tip of the finger. Re-
peat this until the whole scalp has
been treated. Next morning shampoo
thoroughly with resinol soap and hot
water. Work the creamy-resinol lather
well into the scalp. Rinse with grad
ually cooler water, the last water be-
ing cold. Resinol ointment and resinol
soap are sold by all uggists.-Adv

hadn't enough ancestors to hand them
