5000 OUT OF SCHOOLS;
FEAR INFANT MALADY
Compulsory Education Law Will
Be Enforced, Says Doctor
CARRIER, Superintendent

Between 1000 and 5000 children are be-
ing Kept out OF the public schools by their
parents because Of fear that they will be
exposed to iufantile paralysis.
This estimate was made by school ON
cials. who said the compulsory education
law would be enforced.

ing TO Dr. A. A. Cairns, chief medical in
spector, who asserted that the danger of
exposing children to the disease had been
reduced TO minimum. Trolley riding, he
said, Is much more dangerous than school
attendance.
Because It was declared that the services
OF Federal inspectors In New York, Balti-
more and Philadelphia, who have been
guarding against infantile paralysis. were
no longer required as a precautionary meas

think that any doctor, lawyer or profes.

In urging taxation of banks and trust
companies. Mr.. Dallam pointed out that
in New York the city collects one per cent.
on bank shares, measured by capital, sur.
plus and undivided profits.
In conclusion, Mr.. Dallam issues a call
Tor real estate owners OF Philadelphia to

owners stand together and demand that the

URGES EVERYONE
TO QUICKLY GET
ON WATER WAGON
Drink glass of hot water before
breakfast to wash out
poisons.

To see the tinge of healthy bloom
in your face, to see your skin get
clearer and clearer, to wake up with
out a headache, backache, coated
tongue or a nasty breath, In fact to
feel your best, day IN and day ont,
just try inside-ba bathing every morn
ing for one week.
Before breakfast each day, drink
a glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate n
It as a harmless means of washing
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels the previous days indigesti-
bic waste, sour bile and toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and lime
stone phosphate on an empty stom-
ach is wonderfully invigorating. It
cleans out all the sour lamentations,
gases and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
plate will cost very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cieanses, sweetens and freshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the blood and In
ternal organs. Those who are sub
ject to constipation, bilious attacks
acid stomach, rheumatic twinges, also
those whose skin is sallow and COM
plexion pallid, are assured that one
week of Misunderstanding will have
them both looking and feeling better
in every way.-Adv.
