ACUTE ACID INTOXICATION IN
CHILDREN, AND REMEDIES
By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.

nHHE combination of "stomach-ache,"
j vomiting and feverishness in child
is generally termed acute indigestion, bill
iousness, worms" or mayhap appendi-
citis.
And while it might be any of these
excepting "biliousness," there is an eX-
PLANTATION not commonly offered but very,
frequently found right in such cases, and
that Is acid intoyicatlon
Symptoms indicating acid intoXcation
are a peculiar heavy or sweetish breath
and repeated vomiting, first of partly di-
gested food, lat OF bile-tinged fluid or
pure bile. Vomiting recurs every few
minutes, after an interval of restlessness
and burning In the stomach. Following
the vomiting the child seems temporarily
relieved but the distress returns present
~ and seems to increase until vomiting

comes more or less feverish, usually more.

These symptoms are alarming to the
parents. There IS the dread suspicion of
appendicitis or other serious cause. But

WOMAN ANARCHIST TAKES
STRONG GROUND AGAINST FORCE
Miss Rebecca Edelson Declares Her Hunger Strike
Was Physical Demonstration of the Value
of Nonresistance

cry for n1ilitarism in America is only on
the surface A country no longer goes to
war with an avowed statement OF aggres-
sion. In the present war each country
backed its call to the colors on the plea
of defense against milltarism
Ideals will develop as militarism de-
creases Freedom for nations from mill
taristc, forceful intentions, freedom for
individuals from coercive social restric-
tions. Not even in the United States,
the war shop of the Allies and the happy
hunting ground for militaristic propa-
ganda, does Becky as she is known to
radicals throughout the country, feel that
militarism will flourish.
II don't believe we are headed for pre-
paredness, l am sure that II any effort
were made today to force conscription on
the workingman of America there would
be the bitterest opposition. Twenty years
from now, IL the rabid propaganda con-
tinues, the germ Of force may be in our
blood. Today there would be instanta-
neous objection to compulsory military
service"
Women after the war will begin to lead
a normal sex life, Miss Edelson predicts.
Each generation has its big group of re-
actionarles and n minute one of radicals.
The radical of today is the reactIonary of
tomorrow. The war has hurried up the
process, and women, who in Miss Edel-
sons opinion are not yet the mental equal
Of man, will develop to the same plane.
ITO put 1t orudely, the female will de-
velop into a woman. The added respon-
sbllity thrust on her in all the countries
at war will force her TO develop mentally,
and physical reaction will follow.
Barriers that have existed through the
centuries will be broken down. The arti-
fetal form of life practiced by men and
women today will disappear under the
new regime. The reaction against arti-
fetal stimulation Of the material life prac-
ticed today has endangered the progress of
the human race.
II believe that monogamy is the ideal
solution for the man and woman problem.
But believe that the right companion Is
found only through experimentation.
Won't the world ever realize that we rad
icals are the most moral people in the
world?" was the last comment on present
conditions made by Miss Edeson.
The problem of the ideals to be followed
by America in contradiction to the mill
tarism OF the Eastern nations is the
topic of Miss Edelson's lecture at Grand
Hall, 410 Wharton street, tonight.

II EBECCA EDELsoN, the philosophical
| III anarchist who transplanted the hun
| ger strike to American soil and made et-
! fective use Of It on Blackwell's Island In
| 1914. has come to Philadelphia to proach
nonresistance as a substitute for force
and miltarism. Miss Edelson's creed Is
this:
Force is the greatest detrlment to
progress in the world. Coercion, both
physical and mental suppresses the de-
veiopment of the Individual Force has
been carried to perfection in the inter-
national melee of rniltarism, the result
of IL the stupendous slaughter of human
beings
MY hunger strike" said Miss Edeson,
was my first practical protest against
force. was arrested in New York be-
cause I preached a policy of noninter-
venton toward Mexico. logically could
not use force to fight force and there
fore adopted the hunger strike as n
means Of passive resistance. II was sue
cessful"
1t is difficult to make the general pub
lie realize that an anarchist does not
believe in force and Is generally opposed
to It, added Miss 1delson.

veloped its own coercive cohorts of men
and arms to preach the barbarism OF
force They use force to down force. 1t
makes n vicious circle" explained Miss
Edeson.
Even though Miss Edelson Is an enthu-
siastlc industrialist, in fact, n leader Of
strikes, she objects to the use of force
by the working people TO obtain their
ends.
Firstly, the worker gains nothing by
using force" she says. mo matter what
degree Of force he uses, whether it be
sabotage or the methods of the Mac
Namaras who were accused of employing
dynamite In their fight the worker will
always be overcome. The odds are always
against him Nonresistance is the only
means for him. He must lay down his
tools. Let him ignore the Government not
oppose 1t. The world cannot exist with
out the worker
But Miss Edelson is hopeful. She be-
lieves that the cult of force Is giving way
to one of humantarianism. The present

d. W. DAVIS.

In marked contrast to Governor
Alexander is d. W. Davis, Republican
candidate. Those who heard Mr. Davis
a few weeks ago cannot fail to no.
tice it. He resorts TO no misrepre-
sensations, but stands square-toed for
those things he believes are right and
for the best interests of the people.
While Alexander. as mayor Of Boise
was running a "wide-open' town, ID.
w Davis was out in tn open helping
TO fight the battle for prohibition. He
refuses to condone wrongdoing in his
own party, and offers common-sense
plans to make impossible a recurrence
of such delfalcations as those Of Al
len and Coleman. He strikes straight
from the shoulder at the Huston loan
deal, TO which Governor Alexander
gave his sanction. Instead of promis-
ing impossible things, he puts for
ward constructive plan for realizing
on the states resources and creating
a fund that in time will make Idaho
practically taxless state. He is
presenting subjects of such great inn
port. which deal with the future wei
fare of the state. and so forcibly, that
he is broadening the outlook of all
who hear him. He does not make pro-
misses he knows he cannot fulfill; he
does not parade himself as the savior
of the people, but points out what
results will follow the adoption Of
constructive business policies.
d. w. Davis started life as coal
miner. Later he came TO Idaho and
engaged in ranching. He has exper-
fenced the hardships Of pioneer life
and has warm sympathy for those
who must struggle 70 earn their live
Iihood and make home. In Power
county, his home, he is known as the
farmers friend. The title he earned
,y deeds of assistance and many a
poor homesteader was helped over
he tight places by D. W. Davis and
hanks him for it. In the primary
election, out of total of 1900 votes

ONE OF THE MISTAKES OF MOSES

During his address here last weel
Governor Alexander made this state
ment:
"Whcn the lower house meta ma

than was levied under Haines They

That's pretty nice sounding talk,
even if it was never had. Let us
note the record of the bill-House bill
