Most Old People
Are Constipated

The wear of years impairs the
action of the bowels. AS people
grow older they restrict their
activity, neglect. to take sufficient
exercise and indulge in a natural
disposition to take things easy.
The digestive organs become
more sensitive to the demands
made upon them and rebel more
quickly.
1t is of special importance to
the health of elderly people that
the bowels be kept normally
active. A mild, yet effective.
remedy for constipation, and
one that is especially suited toe
the needs of old folks, women
and children, is the combination
of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin sold in drug stores under
the name of DR.. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin. 1t costs only
fifty cents a bottle, and should be
in every family medicine chest

AS long as the poor are with us
it may be hard to wipe out hand to

Cox, state health officer, would rid
Florida of hand to mouth" diseases
through proper education and sani-
tary devices in the schools Such a
program has been launched as part
of the intensive sanitary campaign
which bids fair to be one of the most
vital and far reaching efforts of the
board of health.
What is meant by hand to mouth"
diseases is simply the fact that pass
ing of disease germs into the body
may be accomplished by handling
food with unwashed hands, which
have come into contact with infected
objects. OF course. these germs
have other routes of getting into the
vital parts of the human body, but

eliminated.
DR.. Cox has taken up with w. N.
Sheats, state superintendent OF pub
lie instruction, the plan of providing
for every school in Florida proper
facilities for the children to wash
their hands before eating and that a
regularly hand-washing drill be in
stituted. 1t is understood that Mr..
Sheats looks with favor upon the
suggestion and will shortly issue in
structions to that effect.
"In view of the fact that finger
infection is coming to be regarded as
of more and more vital Importance,
this office would respectfully urge
that you issue to the proper author1-

date requiring that proper facilities
for the children washing their hands
before eating be provided in every
school, and that the daily hand wash
before meals be instituted as a reg
ular systematic drill" says the letter
from DR.. Cox to superintendent
Sheats. "This will have an educa-
tional value, which is too important
to be overlooked"
According to DR.. Cox, it is held
more and more that most of the dis
eases are transmitted from individual
to individual by direct contact
through hand and mouth. In the
Paris hospitals it has been found that
such diseases as measles and scarlet
fever can be housed in the same
ward without injecting neighboring
patients because direct contact is pre-
vented. Thus the air-born disease
theory is coming to be disparaged to
a certain extent.

ROAD COMMITTEES REPORTS

In this issue Of the Evening Tele-
gram is printed the full reports of
the committees appointed to inspec:
the roads being constructed in Polk
county. While these findings may ap-
parently disagree with reports of
the Advisory Board, still, this pa.
per is pleased to have the fact es-
tablished, beyond doubt or question.
tnat in each separate division of the
road system, and on the system as a
whole, the work is better than the
specifications call for. This refers
to the thickness of clay base, thick.
ness of asphalt surfacing, and width
OF roadway. We had rather find
ourself in the wrong than to find
that the roads are being improperly
constructed.
As to the thoroughness and i'm
partiality OF the investigation there
can be no argument or cavil. Five
sets Of men. each from different parts
of the county, and each set acting
Independently of the other, examined
every portion of the completed roads,
and at every quarter of a mile took
three careful tests. To say that un.
der such conditions the findings of
these men, all of which agree. are
not correct, is foolish and futile.
However, the mere thickness of
base and surfacing, and the width of
roadway, are not all the things that
erter into road construction The
quality of clay, the proper admixture
OF the surfacing material, the width
of base, and other matters, have been
given much more consideration by
the Advisory Board than the mat.
tiers reported on. Flaws and imper-
fections have been found and have
been pointed out, and these have
either been corrected. or they will
be before the roads are accepted
And the important fact should Be
borne in mind that not until the en-
tire contract is completed, and the
roads then turned over to the county
in perfect condition, does the respon-
sibility OF the contractor cease.
Washouts or other damage to the
roads at this time should not worry

Demand For Surgeons in Army Is Stripping Country of
 Practitioners.

LONDON. Jan. 12-At the annual meeting of the Glasgow Victoria in- firmary, the general opinion expressed was that private practitioners in he medical profession will be practically non-existant before the end of the war, and all patients will have to go to infirmaries to be treated.
 The Lancet says: There must come a day, if the war is indefinitely prolonged, when the necessary econ omy of medical men can only be ob- tained by mobilization of the whole of the available supply, so that calls can be made upon individual services when and where required. It has long been felt that some such step might be taken and we believe that the general opinion of the medical judging by the correspon- dence that comes to us, is in a sim liar direction.

There was a big rush at all the recruiting offices. All day columns of men marched off to the depots to commence training. The new railway time tables and fares also came into effect.

 There is 2 50 per cent increase in the fares all over the country.
