RUN MOTOR CARS. WITH GAS
Scotch Engineers Use 1t as Substitute
for Gasoline for Short Runs
or City Use.

The unprecedented war demand
for gasoline is stimulating the search
for substitutes.
The latest fuel to be used success
fully to run a motor car is COM
pressed Illuminating gas. The tests
were carried out by the city officials
Of Glasgow, Scotland. A machine
was specially built with two big high
pressure tanks and low-pressure
tank where the gas could expand on
its way to the engine. The cars are
said to have run perfectly. The en-
gineers say that mechanism can
easily be devised with which the auto
engine can be used for COMPRISING
the gas into the tanks.
They conclude that the fuel is
cheap, and quite practicable for
short runs or city use, although the
supply will have to be renewed much
oftener than is the case with gaso-
line.

The Care of the Baby

CA paper by DR.. A. F. Wicks,
delivered on Baby Day at
Okolona.)
A large majority of babies are
born healthy and require little or
no medicine to keep them in this
condition. However, babies
have a weak resistance to dis
ease.
So many mothers especially
the young mothers are prone to
take the advice and suggestions
of other people who are equally
as ignorant; It is not only doing
the child an injustice bat laying
a foundation for the different
diseases they SO readily acquire,
as the foundation for the adults
constitution is laid in infancy.
And would it not be better to
consult your family physician.
A mother should never sleep
with her baby, never put your
finger in baby's mouth or allow
anyone else to except in a case
of emergency, never allow any
one to kiss your baby in the
mouth as so many adults mouths
contain the germs of pneumonia,
lagrippe and tuberculosis which
is easily transferred to the baby.
Never dress your baby in a way
that will cause it to be uncom-
Portable. 1t is also highly i'm
portant that the baby should
have plenty of fresh air at all
times, and plenty of cool un-
sweetened water to drink, boil
ing all it drinks if possible.
The first in Importance in re-
gard to the development of the
child is the correct diet, or cor
rect way to feed. The mothers
milk belongs to her baby and is

STYLES OF ORIENT SENSIBLE
More Economical Than Those of occi.
dent Where Garments Are Dis
earded After Few Months Wear.

Styles of oriental dress differ
widely, but / can safely leave it to
any unprecedented observer that the
american and European woman is
the most hideou4y, ineficiently and
luneconomically dressed woman Oh
earth. The Japanese kimono, famil-
far to all of us and typical of orien-
Etal garb, is made Of straight lengths
fM material which. like the others, is
usable after it's first freshness ia
gone, says the World Outlook.
/, We, Boosting our efficiency, cut
garments into inconceivable bits,
have them sewn together at great
Iexpense, only to discard them as use
less after few months wear.
And consider hairdressing. It's all
10 matter of taste whether one
smooths each individual hair with
cocoa butter as in India, or with a
paste of slippery elm bark as in
China. Both are to be preferred to
the usual untidy appearance of the
western couture that leads the orr
entail to ask: "Do they ever comb
their hair?"
The more you know of oriental
women the more you know they are
like us. The seeming differences are
largely a matter of superfcialities
like the color of the skin. Indian
women use saffron to produce a
beautiful yellow complexion. Chinese
and japanese women like q touch Of
'carmine on their sallow faces, while
American women put on first car
mine coating, then a white. Each
is plainly satisfied with the effect.

PARASITE IN CANcER2

According to DR.. Erwin F. Smith,
pathologist. in charge of the labora-
tory of plant pathology of the depart
ment of agriculture, the whole medi-
cal problem Of the origin and growth
of tumors and cancers is about to be
illuminated. In a lecture before the
National Academy of Sciences, Doc
tor Smith explained his belief that
crown gall is cancer and that there
is close relation between this plant
disease and cancer in animals and
human beings. He also seems to
have established the fact that both
crown gall and cancers are of para
site origin.

THE "KHAKI WOMAN"

The "khaki woman" was some
thing Of a shock to the British pub
he at first, but her training and dis
cipline have been justified. When the
Zeppelins first attacked London the
woman's ambulance was the first ON
the scene to remove the dead and
the injured. The corps rendered
sterling service at the time Of the re-
cent East end explosion, and even
now, every Sunday, they take the
children who are suffering from
shock into the country in the hope
of restoring their shattered nerves.

KITCHEN WASTE TO CATTLE
Bodies Of Dead Animals Also Are
Made Into Fodder Cakes
In Germany.

Kitchen waste and table scraps in
Germany are subject to collection in
cities of more than 10000 inhabit-
ants, and special wagons are pro-
vided for this purpose, Alonzo, E.
Taylor writes in the Saturday Eve
ming Post. The collected materials
are dried and pressed into cakes and
then delivered to communal au-
thorities, who allot them as fodder
for milk COWS.
1t has been estimated that the per
capita waste thus saved amounts to
more than one ounce day, and that
the milk derived therefrom was
equal to 100000 quarts day. Ami
NAL waste matter has been utilized
to the practical exclusion of all loss.
Slaughterhouse refuse, bones, bodies
of dead Misunderstanding bodies
of animals killed in the war zone
fish and mussels are dried, pressed
and used as fodder, alone or with
carbohydrates.
Such materials used to go to the
soil as fertilizers; to feed them d.
rectly means saving time. The con-
troll of sale and use of feeding stuffs
and folders of all kinds is now under
the charge Of the feeding permission
bureau, which determines how,
where and to what extent live stock
shall be fed.

CONSUME MANY ORANGES.

During the last year, it has been
estimated that the people of the
United States consumed $780, 00,-
1000 oranges. Had these oranges
been distributed equally among the
population of the country, says the
california Fruit Growers Exhange,
every family in the United States
would have eaten two dozen oranges
Ia month.

when babies from every quarter
of the town and some parts of
country gathered at the Baptist
Church to be weighed and meas
ured by the physicians, accord
ing to a scale sent out by the
government. At $3.50 O'Clock
Drs. Morgan, Wicks, Donaldson,
Underwood and Hansell, assisted
by Mesdames Chandler, Morri-
son, Davis and Bearden, kept
mothers and babies quite busy
for a while. After grading tie
babies Mesdamcs Gragnon and
Rowe invited them into the
church auditorium where the
following program was carried
out.

A Talk to the Mothers Mrs.
Ledyard.
DR.. Wick's paper contained
good advice, which should be
needed by all mothers. and better
babies would be many. DR.. I'm
derwood's talk gave an insight
to Baby Day, and was very in
teresting. Mrs. Ledyard, of Tu-
pelo, gave a beautiful talk to the
mothers, and every word was
appreciated, when it was told
she was a mother, having reared
five better babies"
After an hour and a half en-
tertainment at the church, Mrs.
A. L. Jagoe took charge of the
mothers and babies, forming a
line of march, with banners and
flags with appropriate notices,
headed by little two-year-old
Frank Turner Morgan in his ath-
letic suit, who scored highest
in his class in the test. In each
class the baby who scored high
est was given a blue ribbon.
The march ended at Bell &
Buchanan's drug store where
each baby, one year and under,
was presented with a tiny gold
ring. Let's have another baby
day next year. Xxx \.

mother can supply the proper
food she must, herself, be nour-
ished normally. Anything that
unfavorably affects the condition
of the mother will certainly af-
feet the child. The mother
should only eat food that she
knows agrees with her and that
she can readily digest.
Experience shows that fresh
milk from cows is the best SUBJ
stitute for mothers milk. it
should, of course, be the purest
and cleanest possible also pro-
perly modified, never boil the
milk as this destroys the nutri-
ton. A child fed on boiled milk
will gradually starv eto death.
The COW should always be tested
for tuberculosis as the most
frequent cause of tuberculosis in
children is caused by drinking
milk from tuberculosis cows. IE
feeding artifcially the bottles
and nipples should be thoroughly
cleaned with hot soda water be-
fore each feeding.
When it reaches the age of
seven or eight months it should
be given one to three table
spoonsfull of orange juice daily,
especially if it is inclined to be
constipated. At nine months of
age it should be given a small
quantity of beef juice, beef tea
or chicken broth once a day. At
ten, part of a soft egg or crisp
toast, other solid food should not
be given the first year. When
twelve months or one year old
the baby should be weaned if
possible, depending largely
upon the health of the baby, the
health of the mother or the time
of the year, as it would be un-
wise to wean the baby in the
heat of the summer. For at
this season of the year there are
diseases which come in epidemic
forms, in which mothers milk is
essential.
The TEETHING BABY
Teething is a natural process
and is not alone responsible for
all the illnesses attributed to it.
Nevertheless, there is no doubt
that many babies suffer severely
while cutting teeth, which may
be due to excessive heat, i'm
proper feeding or over feeding
and to the pain of cutting teeth.
1t is impossible to say which is
chiefly responsible, in any case,
careful feeding is of the utmost
Importance. When the gums
are red and swollen it sometimes
affords relief if they are lanced
this, of course should be done by
your physician. No teething To-
tons or medicines should be
given for the relief of teething.
If they relieve the pain, it is due
to the fact that they contain
opium or SOME other norcotic
drug which increases the irrita-
bility of the stomach, causing
digestive disturbances and do |
only harm.

baby that / was called to see,
who had been having spasms

many mothers object to this pro-
cedare. AS soon as the baby is
through cutting its first set of
teeth they should be gently
cleaned each day with a soft
tooth brush.

baby any candy or sweets as the

Individual rations has been strictly en-
forced.
The new standardized bread, which
has displaced rolls, is a superior pro-
duct and has won instant popularity.
The substitution of barley for potato
meal has created a decidedly more
palatable loaf Greater Berlin is now
issuing weekly 100000 bread cards
and 66,50O,0O0 coupons, representing
daily rations, find their way back to
the bread commission where they are
checked off. Soldiers returning from
the front are met at the railroad sta
ton and given bread tickets good for
their furlough.
One of the latest achievements Of
the German chemists has been the
utilization of tar oil, extracted from
coal, for making soap. The new pro-
cess includes the treatment OF crude
coal oil with potash, the finished pro-
duct yielding excellent soft, hard and

PEACE SOCIETIES FAIL
TO AGREE ON PROGRAM

New York, Feb. $3.50 many diff
ferent shades of opinion have devel-
oped at the national conference of
peace societies that the delegates have
decided that the actions Of the con-
ference should not commit any of the
organizations sending representatives.
The one point apparently settled when
the conference resumed work today
was that a majority of the delegates
favored the principle of the referen-
dunn in declarations Of war. The form
Of declaration on this point, however,
was left to the committee on findings,
which will report to the conference
today.
The delegates voted down a. reso-
luton calling for referendum before
declaring war on Germany. The
adoption of such resolution at the
present time. it was argued, might
embarrass the administration.
The conference is under the aus
pices of the American Peace society.
