ThlOeatt Says:

Putting up a prescription is not
merely taking four or five kinds OF
medicine pouring them in bottle
and giving them a shake frequently
it takes knowledge and the greatest
skill to mix medicines properly to get
the results the physician desires. In
urgent cases when powerful medicines
must be used, the doses must be accu-
rately divided in capsules or powders.
If the prescription be a liquid care
must be taken so that the powerful
medicine will not BE precipitated in
the bottom Of the bottle but viii be
mixed so that each teaspoonful will
have the correct dose.
An emulsion il properly mixed may
be palatable and easy to take. if badly
made disgusting and nauseating. Care.
honesty and knowledge must be used
at every stage Of the prescription bus
mess.
Send MS your prescriptions.

SLOWER THAN MEN
Double the Number Required In New
York Banks, but They Are
More Methodicai.

There Is ut present no woman of1.
Ger Of a New York city bank, and only
one In New Jersey, but If the war
lasts long enough 1t may well be. as
It Is In Canada now, that the banks
will virtually be run by women. AL.
ready, 1t Is estimated, 10000 women
have been taken on In the Wall street
district since the United States ell
tered the war last April. says the New
York Evening Post.
Women are slower, but more care
full. said an official of the Mechanics
and Metals bank. so, although twice
as many wome as men are needed
to do the same amount of work, the
bank loses nc money on extra salaries.
because the women save hundreds of
dollars which had to be paid to the
clearing house for the mems mistakes.
Each mistake costs 81 ind the records
show that sometimes mems mistakes
cost 500 or $50 a week.
The average downtown bank has
lost 20 per cent Of its men and taken
on 40 per cent women. The Mechan-
les and Metals bank now has 60
women and they are being taken on
by tens or twenties each week. So
far these GO women are taking tho
places Of only SO men, which shows
the difference In rapldity. but the off,
cial of the bank pointed out that 1t
would be Il serious problem when the
men come home for their Jobs.
"Our hope is." he said, that tho
business will be big enough then to
accommodate them all"

TO BRING COAL FROM ALASKA
Completion of Rail Line Into Fields
May Result in Cheaper Fuel
for Pacific Coast.

San Francisco.--"With the compile.
ton of the government railroad into
the coal fields of Matanuska. Alaska,
and the shipment Of coal from that re-
gion by the government is seen the
possibility of supplying the Pacific
coast with Alaskan coal at a rate that
should have important bearing upon
the solution Of the fuel question of the
far west" said G. H. Gamble, purchas-
ing agent representative of the Alas
kan engineering commission here.
Illustrating the richness Of the coal
deposits in Alaska is the fact that
since Aug. II, 1916, one mine In the
Matanuska fields near Nenana has
furnished the government and the To-
cal market with approximately $4,000
tons. In fact, there is enough coal in
Alaska to supply the world, and it is
the purpose OF the commission to
make 1t available as o az possible.

Neutrality-suspicious. A. Edison Is
engaged In working out with naval ex-
perts different anti-submarine devices
he conceived while on q recent ocean
trip. For the last two weeks the IA
inventor has been In Washing
ton for this purpose.
While his ship-p7otecting devices
are official secrets, they are admit
tedly most promising. They were
tried out before his own eyes on this
trip.
Edison spent 10 weeks on a yacht
which had been converted into a sub
marine chaser. 1t was equipped ON
the electrical wizards own orders
with every necessity for working out
his U-boat problems.
His sleepless habits while on inven-
tion "jags' are reported to have been
In evidence on the water trip. But
since coming to Washington he has
rested, week-ends, at his daughters
apartments and observed regular
hours at his laboratory in the naval
annex, where the experiments are re-
ceiving their finishing touches.
