into existence ON the way TO execute
this mhuly mission. Armed not only
with the proper authority, but accom-

THE COST OF BEING SICK
Pay Out More Than Price of Panama
Canal.


Five hundred million dollars are
annually expended by the people Of
the United States, according to
Miner Chipman, who writes on effic-
iency in the Scientific American. for
medicines. At least so per cent OF
this $500. 100000 is spent without the
advice Of physician. The Panama
canal has cost to date approximately
1876, 100000. If so per cent of the
medicines for which these $500, ,000,-
goo were spent could be dumped into
the s375,000,000 canal, we would ma
terially increase the efficiency of the
people of the United States. and the
canal as highway of commerce.
Think of II! An amount equal to the
Anglo French loan blown in for med
icines, so per cent OF which were
taken without the advice of COM
petent physician.
Why this waste?
The answer is found away down
deep in the problem of national effic-
iency. We lack confidence in staff.
We prefer to be our own staff. make
u guess--a stab. and let it go at that.
1t is stated that the average wage
Garner loses about nine days every
year because OF sickness There are
approximately S9,o0O.000 wage earn
ers in the country At only 80 per
day. the annual wage lost through
sickness Is approximately $722.000,-
900. Add to this figure the $500. .000,-
900 expended for medicines. and wo
have the staggering sum OF $l.222.-
100000, Of which at least so per
cent is preventable waste. Yet we
see many pages OF the Congressional
Record devoted to a discussion as to
whether or not we shall build one,
two or three battleships. We will not
enter into discussion Of such na-
tional wastes as chewing gum, bon-
bons, toy-dogs, cheap jewellery. etc.
This waste OF s6.000,00o or $1,000. 900
for medicine, and lost time in indus
try is illustrative Of q typical Ameri-
can inefficiency.

According to P. Remlinger, quoted In

telling whether a patient has typhoid

serious typhus is to ask him to put out
his tongue. The typhoid or paraty-
