coUk the mixture until IT is Of the con-
sistency of ketchup. 1t is necessary TO stir

The Battle of the Germs

MOT untr Tlssler's great discovery was
IN published to the world were we aware
of the constant struggle which is going on
within us every moment OF our lives pc
tween two mighty hosts OF germs. the
aerobes, or acid.formlng germs ana the
anaerobes, or poisonforming germs
whether we are sick or well depends very
largely upon the number and the KIND or
germs which are growing in the intestlnes'
When the acid-forming germs prevail we
are generally In good health when the
poison-formlng germs become dominant the
tongue becomes coated, the breath pad
the skin dingy. appetite poor. energy lessen
ed and various nervous and other symptoms
appear particularly the symptoms common
ly known as "biliousness."
The aerobes or acd-forming germs, are
friendly and health-promoting, for the rea-
son that the poison-forming germs can not
grow in an acid medium. The polsonform'
ing germs are largely introduced into the
body by the use of unsterillized cows milk
and meats These germs are the cause OF
the putrefacton of dead bodies, They de-
velop rapidly in the flesh OF dead animals
and hence are always found in flesh foods
as offered in the market. The use OF flesh
foods. and especially prime meats game
fish and shellfish, encourages the develop
ment of the poson.forming germs in the
intestines hence the use of such foods en-
courages the formation of poisons.
These posons are absorbed into the blood
and often damage the kidneys, the liver,
the brain and the blood vessels, causing

EXEMPTION of Alien

To the Editor Of WOmdn's Page:
Dear Madam-Please publish IN your column

the United states that he Is an allen and that
mother that he has over in his own country de-
pending on him, the Government of he
United states force him to 10 back To his own
cOuntryf VINCENT.
An alien such you describe, a prom
inent member Of the draft board tells me,
would make claims for exemption on the
ground Of his not being a citizen of the
United States and could not make them on
the ground OF having a dependent mother
on the other side. He files an affidavit
stating that he is a citizen of another eoun-
try and after presenting proof obtains a
certificate Of exemption His name is then
turned over 10 the consul OF the country 10
which he belongs, and II rests with his own
country. II Il be one Of the countries now at
war, whether or not he be called back 10
fight for ii. The United States at present
so far as / can learn Is taking no other
steps 10 provide for the deportation of
aliens so they can fight for their own
countries.
The reason such an alien could NOT claim
exemption on account Of his mother. 1 now
learn, Is that the exemption ruling about
dependents relates only to dependents IN
America, and is made so that the respon-
slbility OF caring for these dependents vii,
not fall upon the United States Govern.
