SEPTEMBER Is, 1917.
One Hundred and SixtyThird Day of
America in the War.
TO ExTERMINATE THE RODENTS.

A vigorous statewide rat determination
campaign is strongly advocated by the
state board of health.
1t urges that special precautions be taken
to prevent the getting ashore of rodents
brought here on vessels from tropical
countries. 1t is an established fact that the
hubonic plague and many other germ dis
cases are transmitted by rats, and the
health board believes stringent regulations
should be adopted to protect the public
health from this great, though usually min
imzed danger.
While the state board of health is inter-
ested in rat determination primarily be-
cause of it's bearing upon disease pre-
yention, the economic loss directly trace
able to rodents is cited as a reason for in
teresting everyone in concerted effort to
lid every community OF the pests.
The value of food destroyed each year
by rats would aggregate millions, and
:he fire losses attributable to rats reach
enormous proportions. If this waste were
saved it would add materially to the
nations wealth and would aid in the gov
crnment's conservation program.
The rat is permitted to levy its heavy
tax upon the health and the property OF
the people because few have fully realized
its cost and fewer understand its danger.
When the public is aroused to the neces-
s1tv of DISCRIMINATING this costly pest, no
building construction will be permitted
which offers nesting places for the rodents
rat-proofing ordinances will be rigidly en-
forced, and all food products will be SO
protected that the rats cannot reach them
determination of rats is as important as
determination of mosquitoes, and the cam
paign proposed by the board of health
should receive the full cooperation of the
entire state.

CHAPTER XXI.

For three days Helen lowered very
near death. For three days Warren
watched Che anxious faces of the doc
tor and nurses, but they gave him lit
tie hope.
The girl-baby was we'll and perfect,
so the doctor said. But Warren would
not be near it. And If it was to cost
him its mothers life, he felt he would
never want to see it.
For few moments at time he
was allowed to be with Helen. But
she was mostly unconscious, and
when she was not he wasn't permitted
to talk to her; she was too weak for
that. So he could only visit by the
bed and hold her hand.
The Torture Room.
The darkened room, the odor of
medicine, and Helen's white face on
the pillow-it all added to the fear
that was growing in Warren's heart.
He seemed to find something menac-
ing in every detail of the sick-room.
The small table by the bed, with
its white cloth and glasses, the clint
cal thermometer, the bent tube from
which she drank-to him they all
seemed instruments of torture.
His mother came, but there was
nothing she could do. To Warren
that was the desperate part of it;
there was nothing any of them couv
do. Even Anna, much to her indIg-
nation, was not allowed to make the
broths. The doctor insisted that

everything must be prepared by the
nurse.
And very grudgingly Anna let the
nurse take possession of her kitchen.
For in her heart was the strong con-
viction that the chicken broth she
could make would be better for her
mistress than anything those nurses
had learned to make at hospital or
cooking schools.
The Husbands Cry.
There as a day nurse and a night
nurse, and Anna heartily disliked
them both. Even to Warren they
seemed needlessly officious, but the
doctor had assured him they were
two of his most capable and expert
enced nurses.
In their starched whiteness they
were always immaculate. And every
thing was done with clock-like pune
tuality, while they moved noiselessly
about in their felt-soled shoes.
And if their faces We're lacking in
any expression of feeling or SYM
pathy, Warren supposed it was from
long association with the sick room.
And, after all, it was skillful atten-
ton he wanted these nurses to give
his wife-love and sympathy he him
self could give.
If only they could carry her
through! If only they would give
her back to him safe and well.
It was not until the fourth day

COMING INTO ITS OWN.

Corn is again coming into its own and is
reoccupying the position it held in pioneer
days as Americas most important food
grain.
In the South, though seriously threat
ened by other cereals, its popularity has
never waned, but in the North Atlantic
states and the Middle West, where once it
nourished hardest manhood, younger gen
erations gradually dropped corn from their
food lists. Now they are turning to it once
more in aid of the food conservation pro-
gram and find they have been neglecting
one of the most delicious as we'll as most
nutritive of foods Corn meal mush, fried
mush, scrappel, corn mullins and corn
bread are finding place on the daily
menus of thousands of homes that never
realized either their goodness or their
economy And George w. Perkins pro-
poses to fight the high cost of living in New
York City by restoring "samp," form of
corn food that the metropolis has almost
forgotten, to its old-time popularity. There
was time when "samp' was considered
rare treat in nearly every northern farm
house, the dish that children chose as their
especial favorite and grown-ups ate with
relish. But plain, wholesome, substantial,
easy to prepare and low in cost, it was
superseded by more fancy, though less
valuable foods. and in time became almost

ALLIES LEAD IN MAN-POWER.

We1l-informed observers are agreed that
the possibility of the early defeat of Ger
many through internal dissensions or star
walton is slight While food is scarce there
and hunger undoubtedly prevails in some
districts, it is not believed that the situa-
ton can soon become sufficiently acute to
entail military collapse. And while the
socialists and democrats will gain in power
and numbers, the war party is so strongly
entrenched that it's early overthrow is not
to be expected.
Wearing away of its man-power, how
ever, is seriously threatening Germany.
According to carefully compiled Associ-
ated Press reports, Germany had available
for service during the first four years of the
war approximately 11,4OO.O00 men, of
which 100000 were unable to return from
foreign countries, owing to the effective
ness of the blockade. These available in
the classes of 1920, bring the total to nearly
100000. The number of men called to
service aggregate 1O,6OO,OOO, and accord
| ing to reliable information, they are divided
| as follows: In active service $500, 900;
| undergoing formation and in mobilization
depots, 100000; killed, permanently dis
abled and prisoners, 100000. There are
probably half million men in the hospitals
who will be returned to service and a re-
serve of 100000, mostly boys only seven
teen years of age.
| 1t is estimated that Germanv's losses
will be no less than $4,000 month during
the next six months, or 100000 before the
! opening of the spring campaign of 1918
! Frank II. SImonds, writing for the New
| \ DIRK Tribune, estimates the German losses
! for the first six months of the 1918 cam
paign at 100000, if Russia again takes an
active part in the war, and at 100000 if
| Russia does not aida greater shrinkage

must enter upon the fourth with reserve

| boys, who cannot be considered equals to
| the trained soldiers who made up Ger
many's first great army.
| The allies will grow stronger in numbers
as Germany grows weaker. While France
has suffered proportonately with Germany
in losses, the French have not as yet placed
| any of their 1919 classes on the fighting
| called. France now has available f. 050, 900
men, with a reserve of half million.
| England's losses have been less than
those of France, in numbers, though the
proportion has been about the same.
| England, has however, a reserve force es-
timated as being in excess of million and
| a half, and America is expected to have a
full half million on the French line for the
opening of the 1918 campaign. with mil

in that dim light he could see that

The nurse left them alone for al
few moments, but with a warning to,
Helen not to talk too much. And
then in this, their first moment
alone since the birth of their child.
the moment he had looked forward to-,
in which he had thought to kneel be-
side her and murmur his love and
reverence for her motherhood-in thial
moment came tragedy of the common
place.
How rarely any situation is ever
what we think it W. be! What a
perverted, ironical sense of humor
fate must have, and what wicked
delight she must take in bufifning our
most sacred moments.
For now it was Helen who failed
to rise to the occasion. Helen the
sentimental, the romantic, the ideal
list, was for some strange reason at
this moment only intensely practical.
Her first words, in weak but very
matter-of-fact voice were:
Warren, don't you think l could
get along without the night nurse
ho
ing them both"
For a second Warren was Too dis
concerted to answer.
"Why, dear, you mustn't think or
such things yet. You have been very
i'll, you must have the best of care
until you are stronger"
But I'm better now, and these
nurses charge so much. It's $500
a week isn't it, $50 for them both?
And then the doctor?" Her weak
clasp on his hand frightened anxious
ly. Warren do you know now
much the doctor will charge? Will Ii

"HeIen, Helen! Do you realize how
sick you've been? And they have
saved you for me-and you and the
child. Does it matter what they
charge? What makes you talk Of
such things?"
"Oh, I've been lying here thinking
how expensive all this is going to
be-how--"
But here the nurse came in and
said they mustn't talk any more.
Warren stopped over and kissed
her, and then left the room with a
sense of disappointment more poig-
nant than he had ever known.
Helen, with her child beside her.
and yet not one word of it or of her
motherhood, and of all that their love
now meant-her only words had
been of the expense!
Was it, perhaps a part of the eter-
nal justiceof things the because so
often he had failed her in her long
ing for some expression of love Of
sentiment and romance that now at
this moment, she should fail him?

While America will eat more corn than
ever before, Europe has not yet accepted it
generally as staple food. England does
not even know it by its right name, but
persists in calling it maize, and, with the
other foreign countries, is slow to acknowl-
edge it's virtues But corn makes new and
lasting friends wherever introduced in any
of its numerous tempting forms, and the
time is not far distant when twill have a
foremost place in the kitchens of the world.
