Full Quota Is Likely, Says
War Department in APP
peal for Recruits
Pay Seems Probable
Older Volunteers Of Proven
Ability Asked to Enlist
for Training

Washington, May .. - Although the
full allotted quota of 10000 men prob
ably will be enrolled in the officers
training camps when they open May
10, there still is plenty Of room for
men of the right qualities" the War
Department announced tonight
In statement saying that each Of
the sixteen camps seemed assured Of
Is full allotment of $500 applicants
FOR commissions, the department ap-
pealed for further recruits among men
of proven ability. and pointed out that
the camps, while designed primarily
TO train officers TOR the great war army,
would provide excellent opportunities
for civilians to work their way into
the line Of the regular army.
Difficulties Being Adjusted
The difficulties Of administration in
the selection of candidates are being
adjusted" said the statement. THE
question of pay for the men in train
ing is expected TO be settled shortly
by Congress. with provision for regu-
lar pay for reserve officers and 500 a
month for candidates. All men found
fitted for commissions at the end of the
three months course will be commits
stoned in the officers reserve camps,
even if not Immediately needed for the
first increment Of troops.
There is room for improvement in
the quality Of the applicants. Men
of proven capacity in civilian life are
needed. Mature men of this kind from
twenty-five to forty-four, especially if
unmarried, are urged to consider the
matter at once and enroll for the first
- "a O. nj ~
of room for men of the right quail
ties"
In a supplementary statement the
department showed how the camps
offered a ready way for young men
between twenty-One and twenty-seven
years of age to obtain permanent com
missions in the regular army. The
present standing army is in process o.
expansion TO full war strength, and
with the organization Of new regi-
ments approximately 5000 officers
Of the rank of second lieutenant
must be procured from civil life.
At present only about 1000 cam
didates for such commissions are
awaiting examination.
May Seek Provisional Commissions
Men or proper age under training AZ
the camps may apply for provisional
commissions in the regular service, and
at the close Of the three-month in
struction period, examinations will be
held.

CALOMEL SAL|VATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish
liver and you lose a
days work.

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating cal
omel when so. cents buys a large bot
tie Of Dodson's Liver Tone-a per-
feet substitute for calomel.
It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel, but it doesn't
make you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug It
is mercury and attacks your bones.
Take a dose Of nasty calomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and
nauseated tomorrow. Don't lose a
days work. Take a spoonful of
Dodson's Liver Tone, instead and
you will wake up feeling great. No
more biliousness, constipation, slug
gishness, headache, coated tongue or
sour stomach. Your druggist saysif
you don't find Dodson's Liver Tone
acts better than horrible calomel
your money is waiting for you.

fresh, new milk diluted with o%ne-third
it's amount of warm water and enough
pure sugar added to give it a sweet
taste. 1t should not be scalded.
Scalding gives it a tendency to cause
constipation. Feed it at blood heat
and only a few drops in a spoon to
each pig for the first time. 1t will be
necessary to push the spoon gently
into their mouths to make them taste
the milk. Feed at intervals of about
an hour during the first day, with only
a few drops at each feed. They will
soon begin to suck the spoon for more
and for the next few days give them
only a teasponful each at a feed, but
feed often. six to eight times a day,
which is about their natural time for
taking nourishment when very young.
When the pigs are about two weeks
old feed them small portions Of oat-
meal and dry bread scraps, soaked IN
think milk. They will soon learn to
eat all kinds of table scraps, but never
feed large amounts and more
than they will clean up at n feed and
still seem to be hungry. AS soon as
possible change from the spoon feed
! ing in clean, shallow dishes or troughs
b ypushing the pigs noses and mouth
into the milk an dthey will soon be
pushing and crowding each other to
get the lions share. If at any time
! the pigs seem a little off feed reduce
the amount OF feed for several feeds.
If they should seem constipated give a
little linseed meal with the feed
Should they have diarrhoea give a few
feeds of limewater and raw egg TO
correct the trouble.
A large box with plenty of straw
kept clean and a small run for plenty
of needed exercise will furnish the
necessary quarters for the tiny pigs
/ AS soon as access can be had to It, the
pigs should have the run OF a grassy
/ orchard or lot where some a can
he provided. When they are four OF
five weeks old a little. wheat mlddllngs
added to the milk makes a good grow
ing ration for them. A little corn
meal is also good, but do not rely on
corn alone. 1t does not urnls a pal.

BAD HABITS DECLARED
DEADLIER THAN GERMS.
About Fifty Per Cent of All Deaths
Due to Diseases Caused by
Improper Living.

That habits, bad habits, of course,
cause more deaths than germs, is the
statement made by the State Board of
Health in its latest bulletin. A study
of the causes of death in a number of
States. says the bulletin, has shown
that about so per cent of all death;
are due to diseases caused by bad
habits, that about 40 per cent are due
to infection or germs, and that the re-
naming 10 per cent are due to miscel-
laneous causes, accidents, old age, etc.
AS to old age, however, the only re-
spectacle disease of which a man can
die, according to DR.. Harry w. Wiley,
it was found that. only 2 per cent died
OF this disease or met a respectable
death.
Probably the most important dis
eases and the faulty living habits caus-
inc them are diseases of the kidneys,
heart and blood vessels due to exces-
sive eating and drinking, particularly
the eating of meat, constipation, the
abuse of tobacco, and the lack OF eX-
ercise; diseases of the nervous system
due largely to the habit of worrying,
o o sleeping and probably the drug
habit: then there are the diseases OF
the. digestive system which are due
largely to faulty personal hygiene,
perhaps a wrong diet, irregular habits,
constipation and lack of fresh air n
exercise as vel las rest and recrea-
ton.
While the breaking of old habits and
the making of new ones. suggests the
hulletin is the only logical remedy TOT
his condition, there must be created
a more general regard for the health
effects of proper personal hygiene
Health is largely a personal matter
It is coming to rest more and more
with the individual as to whether ne
lives a long life and healthy n or a
short life and a sicKy one. Not nefeo1
itv climate or economic conditions
milne cultivation of proper living hab'
it's and an appreciation of good health
will determine the state of health one
may enjoy.

Tn the event of war a referendum was
first demanded. Copies of the resoIu-

that this war excitement has increased

80 per cent. so the insanity commits

Scully n of the commissioners, and

Last night the city presented a mar
tiGl appearance. A number of the
crack regiments of the city who had
just returned from the Mexican border
were again called to the cCIors, in
view Of war with Germany which now
seems Inevitable. =
Mobilization was rapid. In "a hours
every man of the regiment-750 strong

knapsacks ready to entrain at a mo-
ments notice.
Bands of music were heard every

derou sapplause.
The Illinois Naval Reserves of which
