"Chairman, District Exemption
Board. Honolulu.
Sir: am directed BY DR.. J. S. B.
Pratt president OF the board of health,
TO write you with reference to the CO.
operation OF this board with the Sc
leCtive draft boards of this territory.
In the states many of the state
boards of health arc now assisting the
various selective draft boards and Dir.
Pratt feels some such procedure would
be of mutual benefit here.
In this f.rnno-atiyn tIan bo oII
cal examiners of each draft board
notify the health board of all cases
Of communicable diseases, such as
tuberculosis, trachoma, typhoid, diph-
liberia, etc, that are discovered in the
men being examined and which would
incapacitate them from service.
Upon receiving notice of the ex,
iStence of such diseases the board of
health undertakes the treatment and
beavers, so far as possible, to i'm
prove the health of those rejected so
as to render them available for scr
vice at a future period.
While this procedure, il instituted
here, should be of distinct value to the
military organization, it would prove
also of material assistance to this de-
partment in the control Of commune.
able diseases and the promotion OF
the public health.
by this arrangement diphtheria and
typhoid carriers could be put under
treatment and cleared up. thereby
the chance for the spread
of infection from that source and the
person, having recovered normal
health, would be again In position to
take up such branch Of military ser
vice as he might be fitted to do. -.
1.-THE board of health has a number
of records OF tuberculosis cases which
might be of assistance to the medical
examiners, and assistance could also
be rendered from our laboratories
I'm event of your approval of this
plan, DR.. Pratt would be pleased to

Most Old People
Are Constipated

The wear of years inpairs the
action of the bowels. As people
grow older they restrict their
activity, neglect to take sufficient
exercise, and indulge a natural
disposition to. take things easy.
The digestive organs become
more sensitive to the demands
made upon them and rebel more
quickly.
Il 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 to
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 DIR. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. It costs only
Fifty cents a bottle, and should be
IN every family medicine chest.
A trial bottle, free of charge,
can be obtained by writing to

GRATiFIEp
 sY REPORT FROM RUSSIA
That kerensky is to Enforce Discipline
 in the Army.

Washington. Sept. 13.-News of Premier Kerensky's determination to instill- better discipline into Russia's armies created almost as n.uch grati- fication here today as reports that General Korniloff's revolt was failing and civil war averted.
 If Kerensky succeeds in his disci- plinary program. Korniloff's attempted coup will have borne good fruit, in the opinion of officials and diplomats. Such an accomplishment would remove one of the great weaknesses of the new democracy and, it is believed, might go far tows I'd infusjng a spirit of order and cooperation into the civilian pop ulations, on whose industrial support the war so largely depends.
 KerenSky's plan is believed to be to restore discipline by making it plain that military commanders shall have full authority to dictate military move ments; ly roofing out the persistent interference of soldiers committees with commanders orders, and by re- taining the present system of govern ment civil commissioners at the front to advise men in the ranks and pro- vide certain check on i'll trea tment of soldiers.
 In this arrangement the death pen alty for violation of orders might continue to b eimposed by courtsmar- tial, subject to limited review by the civil commissioners. The forces op- posed to the death penalty probably could be satisfied by assurance that the commissi oners would prevent un- just sentences.

COUNCIL DISCUSSED
 GEN. KORNILOFF'S ACTION.
Delegates of Workmen, Soldiers and
 Peasants.

Petrograd, Sept. 13-The executive committees Of the workmen's and sol diers' deputies and peasants delegates held a general council today to discuss the action of General Korn:loff.
 M. Skobeleff, minister of labor, an nounced that the Kornilof adventure had colis psed completely and that his headquarters had surrendered. The minister added that soon the whole ad- ministra:ion and organization of the Russian army would be mo difed. He declared that the government had act ed in full agreement with the revol;- tionary democracy, which had thEs triurnphed, but that the victory ought not to lessen the vigilance of the gov- ernment, because new attempts at a were possible the criminal activity of Gen. eraI Kaledines, chief of the Cossacks. M. Skobcleff concluded by saying that in the rev government the presence of any elements suspected Of sympathy with Korniloff ought to be rendered

chief of staff when Kerensky assumed nominal command of the armies, and who probably will be virtually com mander, is both an advocate of strong authority for directing officers and friend of the civil commissioner sys- tenn.
 Recent reports from the Russian front indicated that the soldiers com mittee, although said to have been shorn of their referendum power over general orders, still persist in trif1ing interferences which sometimes mean delay and disaster.
 The civil commissioners, who are usually officials or men of prominence in their own communities, report to the minister Of war On general condi- tions in the ranks and also communi- cate to the men information of the governments aims. They are ennis saries of the democratic movement with the function of assuring the army ranks that they are not being used as too.s of military leaders for purposes other than defeat of G0many.

RUSSIAN FRONTS WITHOUT
 DEFENSE FOR THREE DAYS
As the Result of the Revolt by Gen

Petrograd. Sept 1S.-M. Avskentieff, minister of the interior said today that as a result of the KorniloR revolt all the Russian fronts for three days remained without the least defence and without command. The severest penalty, he added. ought to be in- ficted upon General Korniloff and the government would do nothing to mitigate his fate.
