GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Aug. IL
Herman Pillett finished the Quaker
series at Grand Rapids Friday after
room, by allowing Grand Rapids,
through his loose pitching, to win the
final game, and make 1T three straight,
TO the tune of 6 to 2.
Two big rounds, inwhich Pillett was
as free with his gifts as the average
fan Is with advice, and Grand Rapids
scored three runs in each frame. Car
renter was touched in just one inning,
he second, when the Quakers made
two runs. but after that, there was
nothing to it, and Grand Rapids had
the game tucked safely away.
The Quakers have been playing err
rorless ball, but the drive of the Black
Sox cannot be overcome and in every
game, they have won by superior hit
ting. Essick's men made three wob-
bles in Fridays game, but none Of
these figured in the scoring.

81 DE TALK S
The Day Of the Child.
BY RUTH CAMERON.

A dear old lady whom 1 know went
recently to visit her daughter and her
children in another state.
She had a beautiful visit but came
home looking very tired. After a
time the reason came out. She is used
to sleeping in a large bed. Her daugh-
ter's home is small and full of chill
dren and she slept on a couch.
1T was a very comfortable couch,
she said in quick defense of any I'M
spoken criticism, but the last few
years 1 can't seem to sleep as well on
a couch. L like a headboard and a
ish but old folks are apt to be that
way. And then 1 slept in the room
with Roderick and Pm not used to
sleeping in the room with anyone"
Did Roderick sleep on a couch,
too?" asked Il have a close friend 5
privileges and L was minded to take
advantage of them.)
oh no, he has a bed"
II should think he wouldn't mind
sleeping on the couch and letting you
have his bed
"Oh WELL" she said, 'I don't think
He catches cold awfully easy. Any
way 1t was very comfortable couch.
1t was just my fault"
Surely this is the century of the
child!
1 quote that incident because it was
typical
This is the day when not only the
child's development but his comfort
and his pleasure are put above the
comfort and pleasure of older people.
Look back at your own youth.
When grandmother came to visit
and the home was full who slept on
the couch, you or grandmother?
Indeed you were lucky il you had
a comfortable couch to sleep on.
Couches weren't SO plenty then. More
likely you had to camp out on a sofa
or some such contraption. Ny own
memories are of a curious extension
chair that was supposed to serve as
a bed in times of stress-a sort of
awkward ard cumbersome ancestor of
the Morris chair.
Being young, 1 didn't mind sleeping
in it in the least. Indeed Il regarded
it as kind of adventure to sleep in
the parlor. But even youth didn't
save me from being cramped in the
morning. However, what of that? I
was young 1 could stand it and I
soon forgot it. And it certainly would
never have occurred to the family to
ask the visiting relative to sleep in
the chair
But times have changed since then.
For the better?

TRAWELETTE

BY NIKSAH


Marsivan is a Turkish city of par
ticular interest to Americans, for it
is one of the leading strongholds of
American influence in the empire of
the Crescent. Here is located one of
the great american mission colleges
that have done much to tell the Near
East what America stands for Sc
far as recent reports indicate, the
Turks have not yet interfered serious
ly with our missions and colleges, de-
spite the breach in diplomatic rela-
lions.
Marsivan is an inland city, about
100 miles from the Black sea. 1t is
more purely Turkish than any of the
coast towns where our missions have
been established. The college at Mar
swan is literally in the heart of Asia,
and the teacher and the missionary
here has need to think IN AsiaIic
terms, for there is none to interpret
for him the mysterious motives and
emotions of his hosts and neighborS.
Here are the Moslems, proud, intol-
Grant, arrogant, yet with a high code
of personal bravery and honor, re-
sentful of Christian and European
aggression, sensitive and often child
ishly sullen. The position of Chris
tan interloperS in such a land calls
for a high degree of tact and diplo-
macy. And here, too, are the puz-
zling Armenians, most pitifully OPP
pressed of all races, yet sticking stub
bornly to their land, trading shrewdly
and keenly thru massacre and a per-
sccution, and like the Jews of the
middle ages, accommodating wealth
and power in spite of the inroads
/ that more stupid people make by
| physical force. A strange contradic-
ton is the nature of the Armenian
Peaceable and submissive to a point
| that causes the Moslem to look down
on him, avaricius until he will hard
| ly pay for a pistol to guard his head.
under his quiet exterior he harbors
somewhere fund of indomitable
| courage and dauntless stubbornness
that will eventually prove too much
| for the Turk.
| OF such are the people of Marsivan
! The city is a warren of alleys, narrow
and unclean. There are one or two
| fine store buildings, such as the great
| fortified market where a hundred
merchants display their wares, but
| the 700-acre grounds of the American
mission stand in striking contrast
with their weH-kept cleanliness to the

elsewhere the force of example is
proving the most powerful OF

the same symptoms of intoxicatiop
produced by alcohol. A man feels
dizzy, confused and excited, then he
grows exhausted and finally loses
consciousness. Later he feels gener-
ally ill, has no appetite and is in
cIined to be nauseated. A case as
slight as this gains little attention,
but all of the cases investigated by
DR.. Hamilton were of a very serious
nature. The men were victims of
accidents in which they inhaled an
unusual amount of the vapor and died
Immediately. Autopsies showed that
this poison affects other organs, such
as the heart, brain, liver and kidneys,
besides the throat and lungs.
Phat carbolic acid, or phenol, is one
of the deadliest of poisons too, has
been a surprise to many people who
know its use as a disinfectant. DIR.
Hamilton found workmen in smany
plants applying a carbo1ic solution to
cuts and sores of various kinds-treat-
ment that was likely to produce gan
creme in the wound. Nothing is more
dangerous than a carbolic acid burn.
In factories where large quantities of
the acid are used, alcohol, the recog-
nized antidote, is always kept on hand
to be applied Immediately to any
burns.
Next to nitric acid, trinitrotoluol, or
INT, is responsible for more cases of
poisoning than any other substance in
the munitions industry. 1t was very
little known before the war, and the
United States took up its manufacture
in relative ignorance of its effects.
Trinitrotoluol poisoning starts in
somewhat the same way as a cold in
the head, but soon settles in the gas
tro-intestinal tract. There is usually
constant nausea, the skin turns yell
low, and the joints become swollen.
Fatalities from this poison are numer-

Thus Dr.. Hamilton's investigation
uncovered numerous new occupation
al diseases that have appeared as the
result of "a new industry in which our
! manufacturers had had little expe-
| rience. In the meantime, much has
been learned concerning them and
many precautions have been taken to
| prevent poisoning. States have pass
| ed laws concerning their use. Ger
tain ventilating systems must be pro-
vided by the factories: warnings must
| be issued concerning the result of in
| haling dense fumes of acid; people
| must be kept constantly on hand to
resuscitate workmen accidentally
| overcome by fumes; factories must
provide helmets for the workmen, and
the workmen are compelled to take
certain precautions regarding their
clothing. Massachusetts, and Pennsyl-
vania, especially, have set admirable
examples in safety first laws, and
