LARGER OR SMALLER
DROPS OF MEDICINE

When using medicine Gropper 10
is important to use it correctly es-
pecial1y if measuring out drops of
some powerful medicine like strsch-
nine. morphine or arsenic, for dtaps
vary widely in their size.
DR.. II. =. Garrow of London recently
repoI ted to the Lancet the results OF
some experiments he had made with a
medicine dropper and Simple solu-
ton. He measured the solution very
carefully and then took ii all up into 81
medicine drcpper. from which he
turned II out, drop by drop, holding
the dropper at different angles and
counting the drops AS they fell With
the drepper held vertic"l fat an angle
OF 90 degrees with the horirontall it's
contents made 100 drops Held at An
angie OF 81 degrees it's contents made
80 drops; at 20 degrees they made ss
drops, at 10 degrees troy made so
drops and held horizontal they made
only IS drops
In other words. the drops become
progressively larger as the dropper Isl
moved from the vertical position. A
drop from a dropper held at an angle
OF 80 degrees is one quarter larger than
normal; thus. II the nurse has to give
sixteen drops and holds the dropper
slanting she Is really giving twenty.
And the more slanting the dropper the
bigger the drops.

1t is said that the East Side "water
wagon or. more strictly speaking, the
street sprinkler, was the center OF at
traction among upper Cony street folks
at about 10 Thursday afternoon because
of the horses which were attached to 1t
running away, but happily for all the .
were connected with the episode no fatal
tiles and no casualties. The horses starr
ed to run somewhere in the vicinity Of
Malta hill. and run they did. arid those
who saw the transit of the water cart
allow that it was an appalling spectacle.
Two men were on top OF the cart and 1t
looked as if they might be thrown to this
ground at any moment. but the driver
was as cool as the spring weather and
held to his plungihg steeds Until they
reached Stone street, when by n supreme
effort he succeeded in preventing them
from going down Cony hill and swerve,,
them sufficiently from their cotirse to land
them in between two big posts In front
Of the Williams estate and against a
fence, where they stopped. It Il said that
no damage was done to the cart, nor was
a strap Of the harness broken.

No Peace Without Victory,

From tho standpoint OF the detached
student OF history, who knows tho pol
itical and diplomatic backgrounds. 1t
has not been possible to say hat all
the right lay on one side in 1914 and
all the wrong on the other. II a peace
could have been made last winter. it
was conceivable that the main ends OF
Justice might have been met and dur
able solutions adopted. But the con-
tinuance and development of the war
this spring has made it necessary that
victory should precede peace The
cause OF the Anglo-French group Of
allies has become clarified in the
movement of events, until now--in the
eyes OF those who made up the neutral
world as 1t remained until last month
the cause is identical with the best
interests of mankind. 1t has become
the cause Of human rights; and it re-
CARDS the essential welfare OF Ger
mans. Hnngariars, Bohemians, Poles,
Bulgarians. and Turks as being no
less entitled to future consideration
than the welfare of Frenchmen, Bel
gians, Rumanians, or Greeks. Amer
lea had hoped to join future league
to enforce peace after this war was
ended. But events have shown that
we could expect no such League Of the
Future. unless we were prepared to

aim Is the attainment Of a general
peace without conquest of other ma
tons depriying them Of their nation
al sovereignty or their territory; in a
word, peace without annexations or
contributions.
The declaration further meets the
councils demands by promising to take
steps toward the attainment Of an
agreement with the Allies which will
realize the governments declaration Of
April Q. The government however, is
convinced that Russia's defeat in the
war would be q great misfortune to all
nations and while willing to make a
general peace on the above foundations,
believes firmly that revolutionary Rus
STA will not permit the defeat of its al
lies in the west.
The government consents to the
councils demands for the democratiza-
ton of the army but desires TO combine
it with strengthening of Russia's
fighting forces. The declarations meet
half way the councils socialist program
by promising further control over the
production. transport. sale and distri-
button of products; measures for the
better protection of labor: the right to
the constituent assembly; increased di-
rect taxation of wealth; development in
a democratic direction of local self
government and the making of prepara-
lions for the constituent assembly. In
return the government demands such
full confidence and support as will en-
able it not only to fight a counter-rev-
olution. but also to take measures
against the anarchists of the extreme
left.
A new feature was injected into the
situation by the demand of the peasant
congress which began it's sessions here
Tuesday that its representatives par
ticipate in the discussions. The gov
eminent and council agreed and it is
stated that five peasant representatives
will join the conference.

hinges on the point whether the malt
III bread or in beer will secure the
most efficient prosecution of the war.
Unlike America, beer has been for cen
>urics q part of the daily diet of our
working classes. The first duty and the
first effort of those responsible fer the
OF dering of public affairs is to secure
Il maximum output of work for the
prosecution of the war from all
workers.
also, it is we'll to bear in mind
that if the worker is not deriving part
of his energy, as has been his habit.
from beer. he may require more bread,
so that practically no actual saving OF
bread could be effected.
"Of course there may arrive the
point at which it is considered neces-
sary, on review Of all the circumstan-
ces, to stop all brewing. but until this
point is reached, and in view of the
drastic restrictions already imposed. it
is scarcely fair to let the impression
get abroad that we are blind to the
considerations involved or determined
to continue beer drinking regardless
of its effect upon the war"
