PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT.
Remedies For Scurvy.

The juices OF fruit-oranges.
lemons. prunes-are well known
remedies for scurvy. but it has
been found that the white potato
has proved just as useful. For
young children small portion
of the potato Is required one TIA
blespoonful OF mashed potato to
one pint Of water and added to
twenty-fours' feeding Of milk tin
stead of the usual cereaD. Care
must be taken to pare the potato
very thin. An average sized po- I'
tato (boiled) will provide the
amount needed. The vitamines
may be retained by adding the
mashed potato to the water In
which II was boiled. This is
very simple and easy cure and
one which a child will willingly

TIME federal government has COM
pleted its plans for the first call
TO the colOrs of men for the new
national army to be formed under the
selective service law.
The governors of the states have
been notified that each state will be
called upon to furnish one-third OF Its
quota on Sept. 1. Each OF the 1857
local districts will be expected to fur
nish one-third of its quota on Sept. 1,
and the men will be modified at train
ing camps between Sept. and s.. The
rest of each districts quota will be
modified later In September.
Regulations governing the plans for
this great mobilization Of 8S7 900 draft
ed men have been issued by President
Wilson through the Office Of Brigadier
General Enoch Crowder, the provost
marshal general These regulations d.
rect the local and district boards In
great detail how to proceed in desig-
mating the men to be entrained in the
first call Of one-third of the quota to
the colOrs. The regulations provide
for the listing of the men to be called,
for the posting and notification Of those
called, for their assembly, lodging, sub
sistence, entertainment and transpOrta-
ton to the mobilization camps.
General Crowder will specify the
number OF men to be modified at each
camp. The local boards are expected
TO entrain men for these camps at the
times specified. The adjutant generals
OF the states will call on the local
boards to send selected men to the mo-
biliZation camps. The local boards will
fix the time of assembly and order the
drafted men to military duty. They
also will arrange for subsistence and
lodging and for the transportation OF
the men to the camps. They will make
arrangements with hotels, restaurants
and lodging houses In their neighbor-
hoods for the lodging OF the men as
sembled for entrainment, but the rules
contain a provision by which the men
may spend their last night In their
homes with their families by making
application to the boards.
Posting Of a mans name or notice to
him by mail will serve as his orders to
report for military duty. Should he
fail to report when posted on the list OF
those embraced In the assembly list he
will be subject to arrest. The names
Of all absentees are to be reported by
the local boards direct to Brigadier
General Henry p. Mccain, the adJutant
general Of the army at Washington. II
the local board knows the whereabouts
Of the absentees it must call OH the pO-
lice to arrest them as deserters from
the army and to deliver them to the
nearest military station as prisoners

the regulations for the assembling Of
the first section of the national army
