REMEDY FOR NEURASTHEnIA

Neurasthenia is condition OF exhaus-
ton of the nervous system. The causes
are varied. Continuous work, mental
or physical, without proper vacation
periods, without proper attention to
diet and exercise, also worry over the
struggle for success, are the most aom.
mon causes. Excesses OF almost any
kind may produce it. Some diseases,
like the grip, will cause neurasthenia.
So also will severe shock, intense
anxiety or grief.
The symptoms are oversensitiveness,
irritability, a disposition 20 worry over
trihes, headache, possibly nausea
The treatmetrsis one OF nutrition of
the nerve cells, requiring a non-alco-
holic tonic. As the nerves get their
punishment from the blood the treat
Jment must be directed towards build
ing up tine blood. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills act directly on the blood and have
proved OF the greatest benefit in many
cases Of neurasthenia. A tendency to
anemia, or bloodlessness, shown by
most neurasthenic patients, is also cor
rected by these tonic pills.

winter is novel, pretty and exceedingly
practical. 1t provides that celluoid
bangle, set with rhinestones, can be used
as a muff keeper. The bangle is attached
to the muff by means of double satin
ribbon of narrow width which exactly
matches the muff; the celluoid of the
bangle can usually be had to match the
muff also This ribbon is about quar-
ter of yard long and is sewed at one
end to the lining of the muff and at the
other end is knotted over the bangle.
The bangle then is secure on the arm
and the muf can bangle merrily in this
way and the hands will be free when
one wishes.
Muffs this season will be carried in the
evening and should match the wrap or
its trimming. This is a sensible fashion,
for it is an innovation in comfort and
one that it is hoped will be maintained
for every winter season.
Preferred among new muff shapes is
the one perfectly round in form, called
the canteen muff This is mostly chosen
in medium size; but melon shaped half
round and fancy fiat muffs will also be
seen Many are likely to be devised of
some fabric and merely a band or SO OF
fur or imitation fur, which Is now so
we'll made that it answers nicely for
many occasions.

SILT-LADEN STREAMS.
Method of Measurement of Interest tc
Hydraulic Engineers.

Hydraulic engineers who may have to
measure streams carrying heavy loads OF
silt will be interested in report on the
results obtained by the United States
geological survey, department OF the in
terror, in measuring the flow of San Juan
river, one of the tributaries Of the Col
orado.
The headwaters of the San Juan and
those of its principal northern tribut-
taries lie in the high mountains of south
western Colorado and resemble those Of
other mountain streams Their heaviest
run off comes late in the spring when
the snow is melting These higher
streams carry little silt. The lower trib.
utaries OF the San Juan, including those
flowing from southern Utah and north
eastern Arizona, drain a rather barren
mesa that is being eroded rapidly, and
at times of flood they bring down great
quantities of silt and sand On wide,
shallow sections of the San Juan the Ell
feet OF the heavy load of silt is at times
visible in the movement commonly
known as the sand wave" Mr.. k, Z.
Pierce, the author of the report men
toned, discusses the difficulties OF meas.
uring the streams containing heavy loads
OF silt and describes the sand waves OF
the san Juan as follows
"The usual length OF the sand wave,
crest to crest, on the deeper sections OF
the river is Is to 20 feet, and the height,
trough to crest is about three feet. How
ever, waves OF height of at least six
feet were observed. The sand waves
are not continuous, but follow a rhyth
mic movement. Their appearance, as
seen on the lower San Juan, is as fol-
lows: At one moment the stream is
running smoothly for distance OF per-
haps several hundred yards. Then sud
denly a number of waves, usually from
six TO ten. appear. They reach their full
size in few seconds, flow for perhaps
two or three minutes, then suddenly
disappear. Often for perhaps half
minute Before disappearing the crests OF
the waves go through a combined move
ment accompanied by roaring sound.
On first appearance it seems that the
waves occupy fixed positions, but by
watching them closely il IS seen that
they move slowly upstream. In the mar
row parts of the stream the waves may
reach nearly the width Of the river but
in the wider parts they occupy smaller
proportional widths Usually they are
at right angles to the axis of the stream,
but at some places, particularly in the
wider parts of the river, they sudden
ly assume a diagonal position moving
rather rapidly across the stream in the
direction toward which the upstream
side OF the wave has turned

Blueiackets to Visit Panama Canal.

The blueiackets of the Atlantic fleet
will have an opportunity next spring to
visit the Panama canal, and see the
wonderful engineering undertaking. Ac-
cordinp to the schedule of the Atlantic
fleet announced at the navy department,
the battleship force, the cruiser force, the
active destroyers and the mine and train
force are due to make a ve-day visit
to the canal during the period of fleet
exercises between March IL and %,
Thousands of young men making their
first cruise will therefore be afforded
the rare chance of viewing for them
selves the construction and operations of
the canal. While no formal arrangements
have vet been made it is expected that
a program will be prepared by the canal
authorities working in conjunction with
Admiral MAYO of the Atlantic fleet,
whereby all the men will be given faeil-
tiles for making a sightseeing trip across
the isthmus. This was done four years
ago when the big fleet made sight
seeing trip to the isthmus.
The construction of the canal across
the Isthmus of Panama takes rank as
one of the greatest feats of human skill;
for over four hundred years it has been
the dream of adventurous people of Eu-
rope and America. Indeed, since the day
of the first white explorers in the new
world this project has been considered an
ultimate necessity. The difficulties in
the way, however, were found too great
until the project was taken hold Of in
dead earnest by the American govern
ment in 1914, when the United States
acquired possession of a l0-mile strip
running across the isthmus known as the
canal zone Thousands OF lives and
millions OF treasures were sacrificed in the
attempt to force a passage through the
backbone of the American continent
The cost to the United States from
the. time it acquired possession to the
dav OF completion. including $4,000 600
paid to the New French Canal company
and to the republic OF Panama for prop
eriv and franchises, Appropriated $780,,

HECKLE THE
PRESIDENT
Suffragists Haunted Yellow
Flag in the House
Yesterday
WHILE PRESIDENT WAS
READING MESSAGE
Shown as He Began Address
to Congress-Was Quickly
Torn Down by a Page

Washington Dee. 6.--The first demon
stration by suffragists, such as "heckled'
the British House of Commons in the
past, occurred in Congress here yester-
day while President Wilson was read
ing his annual message to joint SEES,
sion of the House and Senate.
Soon after the president had begun
speaking big yellow silk banner was
unfurled from the House gallery by a
group of suffrage sympsthizers. 1t bore
the inscriptions
"Mr. President, what will you do for
woman suffrage2"
The banner was about four feet square,
the lettering in black.
The appearance of the banner created
a decided stir among the Senators and
representatives on the floor and crowds
tanning the galleries gasped in amaze
ment. Foreign diplomats turned curious
eyes upon the futtering piece of silk.
Then James Griffin, page, went down
in history as the youth to drag down the
first suffrage battle flag unfured in the
halls of Congress, He hurried down the
aisle amid senators and representatives
on the floor, and, jumping in the air,
grasped the banner with one hand and
pulled it down.
Mrs. Wilson was sitting in the execu-
tive box with other members of the fam
lily, and watching the president closely
when the suffrage flag was unfurled
There was just trace of surprise on
the faces of the suffragists as their ban
ner went huttering down. A slight muir
muir swept through the House, but quiet
was Immediately restored and the pres
ident continued his speech without being
interrupted He concluded his address at
l:lS o'clock, and went directly to the
office Of Speaker Clark, where he met
the speaker and Senators Stone and Reed
and Representative lgoe.
The unfurling of the banner had been
carefully planned. Immediately after the
demonstration pamphlets were passed
out by women in the corridors giving
printed details of just what happened
in so far as the women were concerned.
This printed information included the
names of the women who unfurled the
banner.
They were Mrs. John Rogers of New
York. chairman of the National Advis-
orv committee OF the Congressional UNI
ion; Mrs. William Colt, New York, rep
resentatiye of the council; Mrs. Florence
Bayard Hilles Of Wilmington, Del, chair

of the Colorado branch of the National

CHILD MORTALITY
Is Bound Up in Industrial Conditions,
Finds Investigator.

That children's welfare from babyhood
to adolescence is bound up with industrial
conditions is emphasized by the recent
work of the federal children's bureau of
which the chief, Miss Julia c. Lathrop,
tells in her fourth annual report made
public to-day.
A study of infant mortality in Man
chester, n. H., completed this year, adds
NEW evidence that when the fathers earn
ings are low or the mothers work out OF
the home the infant mortality rate is
exceptionally high, In Manchester it va
ries from one death among every four ba-
bies where fathers earn less than $3.50, to
one death among every 10 babies where
fathers earn 81 $50 or more.
Miss Lathrop's report refers to the eff
feet of living conditions upon mothers
and points out that the sickness or death
of the mother lessons the baby's chances
for life and health. The bureau has
prepared a statistical study of maternal
mortality and finds that $4,000 mothers
die year by year in this country from
largely preventable causes incident to
maternity and that the death rate from
maternal causes has not decreased since
1900 Miss Lathrop says in commenting
upon this fact: "The means of prevention
are the instruction of the mother, skilled
supervision before the birth of her child.
and suitable care during confinement.
But she must have also noursbing food
and sufficient rest and freedom from
anxiety-in other words, decent living
conditions"
Then the bureau has been concerned
with the protection of the child himself
from premature employment 1t has
published all the child labor laws in the
United States and has completed re-
port on the administration of the en-
ployment certificate system in New York
state. In commenting upon the new fed
eral child labor law as marking a distinct
advance in the attitude of this nation
toward that one third of its population
which is under l6 years of age, Miss
Lathrop says:
MERELY keeping the breath of life in
children is valueless TO the nation unless
they are brought on to adult life trained
masters of their full powers of body and
mind. The law is a national measure and
all attainable information for a better
understanding of the ways in which the
children it sets free from labor may be
started in life should be furnished by a
national study"
at is matter of speculation as to
what proportion of children at work are
dependent upon their own earnings or
support families in whole or in part.
Also the number OF dependent children
now supported by public and private funds
is unknown. In fact" Miss Lathrop says,
"our ignorance of the whole field of de-
tendency is great" The report gives fig
ures about Philadelphia indicating that
the majority of dependent children are
members of families and the question of
protecting them is a question of family
structure and support. Preliminary work
toward a study of dependency has been
done by the bureau, and Miss Lathrop
expresses the hope that Congress may di
rect the children's bureau to make a spe
cial inquiry into the condition of the
children to be affected by the federal
law.

The Linen Closet.

Nothing is SO satisfactory to the fem.
mine heart as a well stocked linen closet.
Lucky is the woman who has a special
linen closet built into her home but il
not provided for such an arrangement it
is quite possible to get along with a
trunk or even n well constructed box.
The next best thing to a linen closet is a
tall chest of drawers. This should be
placed in as light a place a possible and
should have the shelves painted white.
The linen closet should be carefully aired
and busted and the linen kept in orderly
piles. carefully labeled Clean linen fresh
from the laundry should be placed at the
bottom of the pile SO that there may be
rotation in its use,
Now that the preserving season is over
and rush OF the holidays is not quite
upon us it is good plan to look over
the stock of linen and see what renova-
tion is needed Probably YOU will find
that some of your sheets are becoming
worn. Most economical housekeepers are
we'll versed in the art OF giving sheet
new lease of life by turning the edges
inward but not all of them know that if
a fiat seam is made with two rows OF
Stitching the sheet will be much more
comfortable to lie on. If the middle part
of the sheet is badly worn it will prob
ably be best to cut it away before hem
ming the sides and make the sheet to fit
a smaller sized bed or to make the extra
slips which are such help in keeping
the pillows clean. Sheets which are worn
thin but are not torn should be kept for
use in case of illness
Tablecloths require great skill in mend
ing. Weak places should be darned be-
fore any hole appears and threads from
old linen should be used for this purpose,
as the new will be too strong. Darns
are made from the wrong side and tiny
loops should be left at the end of each
tarn to allow for shrinking. Tablecloths
which have gone too far for mending may
be cut up into carving cloths, plate and
