TYPHOID FEVER

"He died of typhoid fever on the
14th of December 1861"
To be the consort of a queen, to be
beloved by her people both high and
low, to be the real but unobserved ad-
wiser of the affairs of an empire, these
are achievements worth while. To be
cut off from all of them at the prime
age of AZ by wholly preventable dis
ease seems wanton. "The good
Prince" Albert, consort of Queen Vic
toria, patron of the arts and sciences,
a skillful administrator and an up
right man was sacrificed to a fifth
disease.
Typhoid fever is found only in man.
It is caused by short rod-shaped mi
croscopic vegetable, which enters the
body through the mouth and leaves it
in human discharges to enter another
human mouth to which it is carried
by fingers, 1ies,, fluids and foods. 1t
is essentially disease of young adult
life. Older people are less apt to have
it probably because they have suf-
fered from an attack of the disease in
their youth.
Typhoid fever is known by various
names, "slow fever, Glow fever, but

about per cent. of those whom it
attacks. A certain percentage of those
who recover become carriers, that is,
persons who though well excrete the
organisms of the disease in their dis
charges. Carriers are largely respon-
sible for the perpetuation Of typhoid
fever, but the installation of proper
sewer systems which not only take
away noxious wastes but also do not
deposit them in some one elses water
supply, the abolition of flies, cock
reaches and other filth insects, the
maintenance of a pure food supply
and the intelligent care of the typhoid
patient, these are the measures which
will rid US from this disease. Unit
very recently typhoid has been the
scourge Of armies but now the anti.
typhoid incubation has reduced this
danger to a minimum.
The Prince-Consort was universally
mourned The grief of the queen wa
deep and lasting and the whole natio!
sympathized in the truest sense will
her in her sorrow. How many othel
widows of less exalted position mourn
also because of the rapacity of ty
phoid fever?

Growing Girls
and Boys

Every physical or mental act that
is performed uses up millions upon
millions of red corpuscles of the
blood. The demand is enormous and
continuous. Is it any wonder that
the active boy and girl should mani
fest this need by hunger? Proper
food IS required so that the system
may form new red corpuscles.
HEMO is a concentrated food
made with the idea of supplying
many OF the elements needed in as
slstlng nature to rebuild old blood
cells and to manufacture new ones.
1t is SO pleasing to the taste, so easy
to assimilate, and so we'll tolerated
by the stomach that a minimum
amount of effort by the digestive
system is required in converting
the food elements into red blood
corpuscles.
1t is an ideal lunch for the boy or
girl, or a pleasing beverage at meal
time. Its use will convince you.
Makes delicious food drink by
simply adding water.

SOLILOQUY AT SHADOW LAWN.

Where are are they gOne' the old familiar
I had a friend-McCombs but he left
me,
Left me slowly but surely, when I did
not need him.
All, all are gone, the old familiar
facesl
Once l had Bryan; he was my friend
In my hours of struggling in that
great convention,
But now he's gone. Left me with
"God bless you!"
Upon his lips. Gone are the old fami-
liar faces.
1 had a friend, truer friend had nc
man,
Like an migrate, wounded my FRIEND
acutely;
And he, good Colonel Harvey, left me
Left me
To muse on the old familiar faces!
At my right hand sat my friend
Who was the strong arm of my Ad

Left me, when 1 deceived him-gon

Study AGRICULTURE

Carl S. Trudel of Wauseon and Dale
A. Shelf of Swanton, returned home
Saturday from the College of Agri-
culture, Ohio State University, Colum-
bus, where they had been enrolled in
the three-year agricultural course
which closed on March 18th. They
will farm at home during the summer
months but expect to return to the
College of Agriculture next October
when the three-year agriculture
course opens.
The three-year agricultural course
was opened in 1914, and now has an
enrolment of nearly $50. The course
is given from the middle of October
to the middle of March each year, al
lowing the students to carry on their
farm operations at home during the
growing season.
Fifty-two of the farm men and
boys who were graduated this year
will farm at home or have secured
positions as farm managers. Others
will go into cow-testing association
and vegetable gardening work.

AMERICAN SHIPS

The Bureau of Navigation reports
progress for the upbuilding of an
American merchant marine. Since
July 1914 the tonnage under the Stars
and Stripes has increased 351, ia, al
though 201 vessels have been lost dur
ing that time through their transfer
al to a foreign register. 204 ships
in this period were transferred to for
eign flags, but the tonnage on the 204
that were gained was 664, 1926, while
on the 405 ships lost it was only 315,-
811. American ship owners are SELL
ing their smaller boats and buying
larger ones. The revival of wooden
ship building is also predicted. 1t is
pointed out that wooden ships can be
built in much less time than iron ones.
In building a wooden ship no great
yards are necessary, and in fact there
is hardly a place along the coast
where it is not possible to put up ways
and turn out a big sailing vessel, or
one propelled by steam for that mat
ter, in a short time. If this move
ment is really started on large scale
it will be to the advantage of Ameri-
can lumberman and laborers. A stan
dard plan of construction may be
adopted and the knees and timbers
sawed out in great numbers and ship
ped east or west to the coast and
there assembled. AS illustrating the
quickness with which a wooden ship
can be constructed, it is recalled that
during the gold excitement in Cali
fornia good sized ships were turned
out in ninety days. These vessels
were sent around Cape Horn and paid
for their building in one or two voy-
ages. When Commodore McDonough
was ready for battle with the English
on Lake Champlain in 1872 the Brig
Eagle of five hundred tons had been
built in nineteen days and most of the
ships which defeated the British at
that time had been thrown together
with timbers sawed from the forests
on the borders of the lake.

SALT FOR PERsPERATION

Encouraging results from the ad-
ministration of common salt as rem
edy against excessive perspiration in
the case of marching troops are re-
ported by Marine Corps officials here.
Sweat contains about six parts of
salt in the thousand. A tropical days
march results in the exudation of
three to four quarts of sweat, with
a salt content of 200 to $50 grains.
For experimental purposes about
100 Marines were given a teaspoon
full of salt (about rs grains) in the
morning before beginning their days
march. After a tropical march OF
nearly twenty miles the Marines thus
dosed exhibited much less fatigue than
their comrades, and their perspiratior
was but a fraction of that of the
others.

Foster-Milburn Co. whose product,

kept up ever since. This is one of
the strongest proofs of the value of
newspaper advertising.
Twenty years ago Foster-Milburn
Company conceived the idea of prov
ing the merit of their goods with local
testimonials. 1t took them fifteen
years to collect the testimonials from
every one of the $500 United States
towns in which they do this kind of
advertising. 1t was a tremendous
task, but they stuck to it until they
succeeded, and the result is that
Doan's Kidney Pills are one of the

Half a million dollars which has an

years by spectators at the football
games of Harvard, Yale and Princeton
will be saved or diverted elsewhere
this year. The withdrawal of the Big
Three from varsity football for the
1917 season will leave this large sum

The sad part of the circumstance Is
that the SJOO.000 is ready to be ex-
changed for football tickets again
this fall. but the three universities
have decided that II ought not to cheat
the sporting public by putting on in
ferior teams, and not a cent of the
money will come into the athletic
treasures us result.
Harvard, Yale and Princeton can
afford to pass up its annual taking of
football receipts this season better
than most of the other colleges. but
nevertheless these three big fellows
could find plenty of uses for the
money. Fixed charges are still going
on in Cambridge. New Haven and
Princeton, n. j.. and In the absence of
varsity football, such charges will
amount to Il loss. Office salaries still
