DIES STUCK IN MUD
Tide overwheIns Struggles Of Long
Island Boatman.

NEW YORK. April 6.-Frederick
Nose, caretaker OF the Nassau Club,
at Woodmere. L. l., was drowned
early yesterday morning in Wood
mere bay by the tide that rose around
him as he stood caught in the mud.
He started out before breakfast in
a skin to catch some founders, and
according to indications observed by
John Debevoise, who found the body.
anchored the boat some distance out
in the bay. Apparently the boat
was stranded as the tide went out,
and Nose tried to push 1t Off with
his oar. Failing in this. he stepped
out of the boat to shove 1t or. and
did manage to push ii a short dis
tance, but in doing so his feet stuck
fast and he could not get out.
As the tide came In, with the boat
drifted out OF his reach, Nose made
frantic efforts to escape, and his
shouts for help reached the shore.
But in the mist no one could tell
their source or direction, and no
help came to him. Exhausted by
his struggles and sunk deeper into
the mud through his exertions, he
finally drowned. II he had stood
still and let the tide rise to its full
height 1t would not have come above
his chin.

MILLION WOMEN
WANTED ON EARNS
Carl Vrooman Predicts Short
age of Male Labor Due
to War.
By CARL yRoOMAN,
Assistant secretary of AEricultur'

Assistant Secretary of Agriculture.
Can we enlist a million American
women to do mems work this sum-
mer on the farm?
ask this question because IL 10
possible this summer the United States
may be in as great need of farm Ia
borers as of soldiers and munition
makers.
The available farm labor of the
United States will be materially re-
duced by the calling Of many men
to war.
with q good team and riding cul'
tivator equipped with a sun umbrella,
plowing corn is a deal more pleasant
than washing. The spring seat of a
binder compares favorsbly with the
comfort of a piano stool. Few house
hold duties are more fun than riding
a hay rake. Even plowing with .
suiky plow is not too heavy strain
for some American women.
Every farm girl and woman should
proceed at once to master the ele-
ments OF practical scientific farming.
courses in agricultural schools, and
every one should ask questions, OBJ
serve, and read bulletins.
The Department OF Agriculture has
issued a concise. simple. practical
primer of scientific agriculture for the
Middle west-Farmers' Bulletin No.
T04-which can be obtained through
Congressman or directly from the
Agricultural Department. Similar bull
letins for other regions are now un-
der preparation.
Every farm girl and woman, more
over, should, by all means, taks q
hand in actual farm operations 50 as
to handle tractors, horses, and farm
implements readily and skillfully.
Those who do will not have to pre-
pare after the fighting has begun, to
do their "bit" for their country in
time OF danger. They will know how
to plant. cultivate, and harvest the
crops essential to our national welfare
when saving them depends upon the
service Of women in the field.
Let the million women step forward.

POPULAR MEDICINE
BY DR.. HIRSHBERG
Intelligent Observations OF Rules
of Hygiene Will De-,
crease Illness.
By DIR. L. X. HIRsHBERG.

When one of the pores of the face
becomes overfull OF its usual oils or
becomes clogged with dust, dirt, tai
cum powder or what not, papules, pus-
tules and other red, black or. white
headed eruptions may appear in the
skin. This is called "acne vulgaris"
by dermatologists. 1t is truly vul-
gar affection.
These are the facts OF such facial
bIemishes. The little ''wriggly worms"
which can be pressed out OF the face
pores are not. as some believe. animal
cules OF worms at all. They are csked
wax with a spot of dirt on the ex-
ternal end which has clogged the hu-
man grease cups. The nose, the cor
ners of the nostrils, the chin ana the
cheeks are abundantly supplied with
such oil channels.
individuals who live in dirty rooms.
eat greasy foods. use strong alkali
soaps and Irritating cosmetics, eat SO
many sweets and pastries that the su-
gar oozes- out of the pores of the face
to feed the ever present germs, are
very likely to be the victims of acne.
Causes of Breaking Out.
Irregular Intestinal activities. con-
stipation, a lack of outdoor exercise,
and muscular agility bring to mind
fond recollections of many whose
faces are generally all broken out"
You might think IL almost needless
to mention all these various causes;
perhaps you expect that this knowl-
edge ought to do away with acne and
pimples.
It does not. because many of those
who have blackheads and pimples
either refuse to read. to remember and
to find out what is the matter. or.
once the facts are learned. they still
fly to some false. much recommended
easy method and refuse to apply the
knowledge they possess. .
A touch of tincture OF iodine may
be necessary after the acne postules
and blackheads have been freely
forced open with absorbent cotton and
II may also be necessary to wipe away
the fat OF the blackheads and the
clogged canals. Benzine on cotton
will do this
Change Of Habits Needed.
Even such excellent local treatment

cyIic acid. IL per cent precfpitated sui
phur, per cent of tincture of ben
zoin TO 100 parts of benzoinated lard.
will be of small permanent value II
the surroundings, the diet, and the
habits of the young woman or man
are not corrected.
Lotions such as witch hazel with 3
per cent each of Venetian talcum. zinc
oxide, precipitated sulphur and glycer-
inc with an ounce OF spirits of cam
phor, literally applied and allowed to
dry, often will help to abate the
smaller pimples, while you await the
BENEFITS of more sunlight, muscular
exertion. palmer food, and thorough
cleanliness.
