to as many as 70 or So. The pa- tient is led to believe that the in- formation which he furnishes in reply to these questions, will be carefully considered before any medicine is prescribed for him, though every physician knows that an accurate diagnosis cannot pos sibly be made in this way. As a matter of fact none is attempted and the degree of attention which these individual reports receive can be measured by the fact that cases have come under the obser- vation ot the department in which mail order concerns doing a bus mess of this kind have received as many as 4,ooo letters a day.
 After the patient has submitted his diagnosis report" he is urged to purchase supply of medicine. If he does so, he is then urged to purchase more. If he states that he has experienced no beneficial effects he is told that he has not taken enough, and this process is likely to continue until the limits of his credulity have been reached. If, on the other hand, he decides at the beginning not to purchase the medicine it is likely to be offered to him at successively low CT prices until he is at last induced to believe that he cannot afford to ignore such a bargain. This is carried to such an extent that treatment" the original price of which is $25, may be offered atthe end of six months for $2.5o.
 As matter of fact the success full treatment of tuberculosis re- quires much more than the mere giving of medicine and, moreover, what will help one case will not necessarily help another. Claims that are absolutely unwarranted are no longer permitted on the labels of medicines shipped in in- terstate commerce, but the word- ing may be such as to convey a misleading impression without the use of absolute statements. Thus these preparations continue to find sale dispite the fact that little trouble on the part of the pros. pective purchaser will reveal their worthlessness.

Got Gay with a Boy One Day

Two ladies gay met a boy one day; his legs were briar-scratched, His clothes were blue, but a nut brown hue marked the place where his pants were patched. They bubbled with joy at the blue clad boy with his spot of nut brown hue.
 Why didn't you patch with a color to match?" they chuckled ', Why not with blue? Come, don't be coy, my blue brown boy, speak out" and they laughed with glee; And he blushed rose-red, while he bashfully said: That ain't no patch; that's me-"

TUBERCULOSIS "REMED|ES'
 THAT ARE WORTHLESS
No Real Cure Possible From Any of the Patent Preparations Investigated
 by Government Scientist

Washington, D. C.-Atter in- vestigating under the Food and Drug, Act, large number of pre- parations advertised as consump- tion cures, the Department of Agriculture has not been able to discover any that can in any sense be regarded as "cures" for tuber- culosis. Some contain drngs that may at times afford some tempor- ary relief from the distressing symptoms of the disease, but this is all. Since the passage of fed. eral legislation prohibiting the shipment of interstate commerce of medicinal preparations for which false and fraudulent claims are made, there has been marked tendency to label these prepara- tions remedies instead of cures" or infallible cures" as they used to be called. In many cases, how ever, they can not even be regard ed as remedies.
 A "cherry balsam," for example, for the "cure" of consumption" and "hemorrhage of the lungs" which it was represented would strike at the very root of the di- sease" was found on analysis to be nothing but a solution of water and alcohol of opium, sugar, ben zaldehyde, inorganic salts and col bring matter. It contained no herry bark extract or balsam.
 A more elaborate "cure" con- sisted of five different preparations which the credulous patient was to take separately. These were first, the medicine proper, the essential ingredients of which were found to be morphine, cinnamic acid and arsenic-not a very safe mixture to take habitually; second, tonic which was supposed to contain iron but did not; third, a cough mixture" made up of alcohol, hloroform, and codeine which is a derivative of opium or morphine; fourth a mixture which contained some quinine, and a solution of water and alcohol; and fifth, CO., deine tablets. Even the strongest constitution could hardly stand prolonged course of such a treat ment.
 In the marketing of such prepa- rations considerable ingenuity is ire quently shown. One of the main objects is to persuade the patient that he is receiving, at a comparatively low price, the indi- vidual attention of a trained spe- cialist. For this purpose, symp- tom blanks are employed. These contain a number of questions about the patients symptoms, the number varying from dozen or so

PENNSYL LvANIA is
WORLDS LARGEST
Thousands View Launching of Mighty
Battleship-A Messenger
of Peace.

Newport News, Va, March 1b.S<The
largest fighting ship in the world, the
United States superdreadnought Penn
sylvania, was launched here today. A
prayer that she might prove messen-
ger of peace rather than an engine of
destruction, went with her as she glid-
ed down the inclined ways into the
waters of James river.
As the triggers were sprung at a
signal froll Secretary of Navy Daniels
and the $4,000 ton red hull was re-
leased, Miss Elizabeth Kolb, Of Ger
mantown, Pa, named the ship for her
native state by crashing bottle OF
wine against the steel prov. When
the hulk plunged into the water, ii
created a swell which rocked the ship
Of a nation now at war, the German
converted cru ser Prinz Eiter Fried
rich. moo1 ed to pier less than 100
yards away.
Captain Max Thierichens, command
er of this famous sea raider, which
but few weeks ago had sunk an
American ship in the South Atlantic,
and had sought refuge in this Ameri-
can port from its enemy ships, was
present on the launching platform and
joined with 10000 other spectators in
the cheering of the new warship. By
his orders the raiders whistle also
assisted in the noisy welcome which
nearby steam craft gave the Pennsyl-
vania
The German commander in full uni
form, reached the launching platform
early and mingled jovially with Amer
lean naval officers throughout the GER
emony.
Gathered on the launching platform
were Secretary Daniels and staff, Gov
ernor Brumbaugh and staff, of Penn
sylvania; Senator and Mrs. Swanson
of Virginia, and a number of naval Of
ficers, as well as officials of the state
OF Virginia and of the builders.
While the hundreds of workmen,
still were busy under the leviathan's
hull preparing her for launching, Epis-
copal Bishop Berry, of Pennsylvania,
read prayer for the welfare of the
President and people of the United
States, the army and the navy and the
peace of the world.
A launching luncheon followed at
Old Point Comfort
Secretary Daniels was the principal
speaker, declaring in answer to critics
of the unpreparedness of the American
navy, that never before in it's history
was the navy in better shape TO fight.
