CONSOLATION

Great ,Britain's proposal to intro
 duce a system, of modified ,conscrip- ton in order to meet the demands of
 the war leaves the United States the
 only great nation without any form
 of compulsory military service. Con scription was instituted by the ancient
 Romans, and has been resorted to by nearly all the great nations of the
 world. Tn the American civil war both North and South made military service compulsory. The conscrip- ton act passed by the Confectionery in 1862 made every white male be- tween 8 and 35 liable to be brought into service at a moments s notice. La ter the law was extended to include those between 35 and 45. In the North the enforced drafts led to riots in many cities. In 1860 Great Brit ain passed a law making all males over 5 foot 2 inches and between IS and 30 liable to military service if called upon, but this form of con scription was held in abeyance by an annual act of Parliament. In France liability for service extends from the age of 20 to AS, with no exemptions other than physical disability In Germany the liability for military ser- vice commence at the age of 1 z and ended at 45.s actual service beginning at 20, and the term of service in the
 first line or active army lasting sew en years, followed by 13 years in the Jandweh, and the remainder of the term in the Landsturm. Compu1- sorry military or naval service in Italy began at 20 and lasted 19 years, with two years in the permanent army. The

TENEMENT FIRE ESCAPES
 FOR PNEUMONIA ENEMIES

During the last 10 years the value of cold air for pneumonia patients has been accepted by many physicians, upon the recommendation of some hospital physicians who have. utilized fire escapes in tenement houses, porches and galleries in hospitals, upon which they have exposed chill dren suffering from pneup onia. But before the American association for study and prevention of infant nor tality. in Philadelphia, three physi- clans for children's diseases, who in their respective cities stand at the head of their speciality, have strongly inveighed against excesses committed under this so-calIed advanced Nreat- nent.
 Dr. J. Lovett Morse of Boston said: Fresh air and cold air are not iden- tical. Cold air acts as an irritant to the respiratory mucous membrane. It is questionable whether in pneumonia it lowers mortality" Dr. L. Emmet Holt of New York, said: There have been almost as many deaths caused by cold air as there have been cures affected" Again: ttI have seen a great amount of harm done by the teratment of acute respiratory diseases especially in young infants, by ex- posture to cold air. Dr. H. P. Crozier Griffith of Philadelphia said: t.It never has been proved that the universal employment of cold air or open air for the treatment of pneumonia or other respiratory diseases is the correct measure. Excessive use of cold air in these diseases has been a fad and has gone beyond the medical profession into the hands of nurses, hospital managers and the laity in general He continues: 1T agree with D4. Holt that patients are made worse by its indiscriminate use. *** We see others who improve only by this treat ment.''
 That cold air admitted through windows and doors is of great advan- tage in the management of a4l3 infec- tious diseases, is an accepted fact It

Bringing the little of gold or fame,
To show how well he has played the
game,
But glad in his heart that his own re-

To see him come and to hear his voice.
Only dad with brood of four,
One of ten million men or more,
Plodding along in the daily strife,
Bearing the whips and scorns of life
With never Il whimper of pain or hate
For the sake of those who at home
await.
Only dad, neither rich nor proud,
Merely one of the surging crowd,
Toiling, striving from day to day,
Facing whatever may come his way,
Silent, whenever the harsh condemn,
And bearing it all Tor the love of them.
Only dad but he gave his all,
To smooth the way for his children

Doing, with courage stern and grim,
The deeds that his father did for him,
This is the line that for him / pen,
