WhV Rheun1atism Comes
With Cold Weather |!
By vALENTINB MOTT PIERCE, Il. D.

A close connection exists between
these two cold weather and rheu-
matism. Prof. Alex. Haig, of London,
has the most followers in the medical
profession in the belief that the pres
ence in the system of uric acid, or its
salts in excess, is the real cause OF rheu-
matism. Everyone has recognized the
difference in the appearance of their
water as soon a. Il gets cold; there is
often copious sediment of brickdust.
Several causes may lead up to an
accumulation of uric acid in the system,
which, in turn, causes rheumatism or
govt, or creaky joints, or swollen fingers,
or painful joints. For one reason the
skin does not throw off the uric acid, by
profuse sweating, as in the hot weather,
and the kidneys are unable to take care
Of the double burden. Another reason

ton featured yesterdays session of the local exemption board. But l30 odd showed mp for examination, and these included half a score who were coming in late.
 The medical board passed on l09 men, exclusive of half a dozen re-ex- aminations and men who should have reported Tuesday and Thursday About 2 per cent were turned down on good and sufficient grounds, as physically deficient. Of the balance, about a score announced their inten- ton of joining the army, without putting up any claim for exemption.
 No figures or names are available from yesterdays session, because the board received a new set of docket blanks. and the study of them by the clerical force so delayed the handling of the cases, that the board quit at , o'clock in the afternoon, with fewer than 50 cases looked into and no final decisions on record.
 Work in the medical room was swift, and the doctors and clerks were idle at 10 o'clock, with but few stragglers to see. They had again showed that they can handle better than 25 men an hour and not stint their examination of any of them.
 On the medical staff of Dr. Finn yesterday were Drs. Judge, Vivian,  Looney, Kaull and Linn.
 An interesting example of the way some men look at the draft was found in the case of Braly. Braly went through his physical examination with a good record, except that he had about as many teeth as year old infant. He was about to be turn ed down for this defect, when he spoke up and said. Doc, does this turn-down prevent me from enlist ing?" "No," says the Doc. Well, l want to go; cant my teeth be fixed up?" Far be 1t from us to keep you out of the army" replied the medico. as he stamped his O. k on the slip. Braly. when he found out that he could not only go to the army, but could have his mouth repaired by ex pert military dentists, was almost pathctically happy. He thanked everybody who had had anything tc do with his case elaborately.

MEN WARNED'- NOT
 ID FUDGE
MUST KNOW FACTS THEY SWEAR TO IN BEHALF OF MAN CLAIMING EX- EMPTION; PROSECUTION AWAITS UNWARY.
(From Sundays Daily)

Slackers and those who would re- cure exemption from military service on unworthy grounds have been pretty well warned by the attitude the government and the local board have taken lately. The board yesterday turned its attention to the men who have been signing afidavits in a per- functory manner.
 This must be stopped, according to the board. Those who swear that man is married, has children and con- tributes to the support of his family certain named sum, must know these facts of their own knowledge. There has been too much flashing of of signatures, merely as matter of accommodation for a customer, for instance.
 Another phase of the exemption problem to be brought forcibly to the attention of the board is in the matter of United States mail employees. The regulations say that in order to claim exemption, a mail carrier must have an affidavit from the postmaster, stat ing that his loss will seriously inter- fere with the business of transmitting he mails. Postmaster General Burle- son has recently issued statement to the effect that no postal employees are considered indispensable, except railway mail clerks, who are exceed ingly hard to get and train. In the East. mail carrying jobs are jobs for older men. In Europe, women, al most exclusively, are being used for carrying mail.
 Tt is not the intention to discour- age the signing of afhdavits, or to make it hard for men to secure sig natures" says a statement issued by the board yesterday. Tt must be known, however, that signing afl- davits under the selective draft law is ticklish business. Federal prosecu- ton faces every man who fails to un- derstand or wilfully disregards the rules. It is most emphatically set forth in the regulations, that the sign CT of any affidavit in behalf of a man claiming exemption must know be- yond a peradventure of doubt. the facts he is swearing to-

MAJOR THOMPSON HAS
 IMPORTANT ASSIGNMENT
From Thursdays Daily.O

Major H. D. Thomson, formerly stationed at Fort Whipple as chief ot the medical corps, |. $. Army. is
 figuring prominently in military duties and has been assigned to Oswego, N. Y., to establish and direct one ot the large base hospitals of the army.
 The Times of the above city pays this officer a just tribute, and speaks of the new and vital movement as follows:
 The first unit of $ medical re- cruits has arrived, to be followed inn mediately by many other divisions, in the aggregate several thousand to en- ter the medical service. Major Thomson is soon to be promoted, in recognition of his invaluable services, and will have the rank of lieutenant colonel His present duties have a wide range of importance, for which he is capably qualified. He has been in the service for many years, serving in Cuba, the Philippines, Honolulu and many garrisons in the United States. Until recently he has been on the Mexican border, rendering splen- did service. His transfer to Oswego IS on special orders of the war de- partment. The number of attaches at the new base hospital will be over 300, from which can be judged the importance of this movement"
 Major Thomson is remembered by many of Prescott as a high clas, medical authority. He is the step father of Mrs. LeRoy Anderson, and has many friends here who are pleas ed over his being placed at the head of one of the biggest medical insti- tutions in the nation.

SOLDIERS-TO-BE
 PARADE; SHOW PATRIOTISM
CFrom Fridays Daily.O

From Fridays Dahy.)
 Prescott will yet have a parade of drafted men, similar to the ones held recently in Chicago.
 For two days, ever since the hrst examination on Tuesday, a dozen or so youths, who passed the physical examination and were last night cer> tifed to the district board as soldier material, have ganged together, toting small American flags and making noises of an unmistakably American nature from time to time. They seemed greatly enthused over the idea that Uncle Sam, through his elaborate draft machinery had hit upon them as fit for his new war army.
 Indeed, it is considered no small honor to belong to this crowd. Every member regards himself as a poten- tial Teddy" with chance in soak to wallop the kaiser through his hired hands, the Huns.
 Adding yesterdays total of 45 tc that of the day before, gives Sl pros pective soldiers, picked in two days, over three times as many as were found in Maricopa county on the nrst day, out of much larger population.
 Exemption-Not Selection.
 It must be understood by all draft ed men that the board is not sclec- ton board, in the sense that it looks 'cm all over impartially and picks the men best fitted to be soldiers, and then certiies them. The chief duty ot the board is not to select soldiers but to reject men who are not int to be soldiers. or who will serve better in other ways.
 For this reason, the board DOES NOT ISSUE CERTIFICATES TO. THE ARMY.
 The only papers this board issues are CERTIFICATES OF EXEMP- TION AND DISCHARGE.
 IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE Al CERTIFICATE OF EXEMPTION OR DISCHARGE WITHIN TEN DAYS OR TWO WEEKS AFTER YOU HAVE BEEN EXAMINED YOU MAY KNOW YOU ARE IN THE LIST AS A SOLDIER-TO-BE- F.
