Soap for Wounds.

Common yellow soap, the kind used
by housewives in washing clothes and
dishes, has been found to be wonder
full cure for wounds in French hos
pitfalls and its use has spread to the
British medical stations. A solution
is made from cake and injected into
soldiers wounds, even in the latest in
stances into the deepest bullet holes,
where 1t has proved itself to be a SUI
perior antiseptic to hydrogen perox-
ide and most other germ killers, and
in addition strangely effective heal
er of torn tissues.
Wounds treated with soap need few
er dressings and lessen pain far
more than do wounds treated with
other antiseptics. These facts greatly
expedite the work of the surgeons,
who can handle more men than when
using other solutions.

MONEY TO WIN WAR
How Americans Can Defeat
Blood Crazed Kaiser.
Small Contributions From All Who
Love Liberty and Appreciate Its
Blessings VIII Save World
From Grave Danger.

Many are familiar with the fable
that appeared in the old school readers
about the king who offered q fortune
and the hand Of his daughter to the
man who could tell him story that
would last forever In the telling. with
the stipulation. however, that. in case
the story came to an end, the person
who failed to complete it was to lose
his head by the sword.
A number of adventurous spirits lost
their heads In the attempt to keep a
serial going forever to amuse the &c
centric monarch, but one young man
finally won the fortune and the daugh-
ter by wearing out the very soul Of the
king WITH the story about the locusts
carrying off the corn. "And then an
other locust came and carried Off an
other grain of corn" etc. etc, until
the king decided he had had enough OF
the story.
America-in fact, the whole world,
is dealing with an eccentric" monarch
today. This monarch wants the impos-
sible, and everyone who refuses to give
1t to him must lose his head. There
is one way to deliver the peoples Of the
world from this menace.
Kaiser Wilhelm can be worn out, II
he cannot be crushed by one tremen-
dous blow. And the government at
Washington has pointed out the way.
Money will defeat the kaiser. Small
savings, like the locusts, coming along
from 100000 American citizens,
will wear out the soul Of the war-mad
monarch. American money can wear
out any army In the world, because
there is great deal of American
money and there are many Americans
who have 1t. Just mere matter Of a
quarter day from every wage Garner
in the United States would mean bill
lions Of dollars every year to buy guns
and food for soldiers, and ships to
carry them across the Atlantic to de-
feat the sinister purposes of the kaiser
and his crew.
A quarter, like the grain of corn, Is
not much In itself, but millions of quar-
tiers every day mean victory for right
eousness and humanity.

GoInn AWAY OFF.

Sloane Williams, son of Thomas A.
Williams, who recently removed to
Montgomery, Ala, from Franklin, and
the son of Capt. z. B. Chenoweth,
former coroner Of Johnson county, who
enlisted In the medical corps at TT.
Harrison, and was sent to Honolulu,
Hawaiian islands, for base hospital
training, were playing.
Sloane started an argument by say
ing my papa and mamma and I are
going away off,"
Young Chenoweth replied: $50 are
my papa and mamma and me-"
Sloane took the matter in hand and
announced: well, / bet we are going
the farthest."
Chenoweth Immediately objected,
and the argument waged furious. Fin
ally young Chenoweth asked young
Williams: "Well, where are you going,
anyhow"
Williams was unable to answer, and
the physicians son quick to show his
superior knowledge, answered: "Well,
wherever 1t is, bet 1t isn't as far as

How They Became sammies.

It has been reserved to the Paris
Figaro to discover, in the American
slang dictionary, the ''true" origin Of
the term Sammy" as expressive Of the
American Tommy" says the Christian
Science Monitor. The expression did
not originate In France, but at West
Point, in 1870, when certain Lieuten-
ant Mills was manager Of the mess.
Tfs fare included some formidable
sandwiches Of bread and molasses.
Only the cadet who had consumed six
oe these substantial sandwiches In sue
ces SION was allowed to bear the appel
lation OF Sammy All Of which
sounds like a very plausible attempt,
on the part Of the French poilu, to dis
claim credit for the cognomen which
caused so much dissatisfaction with
the American troops when IL was first
heard at a French landing port.

When the United States government
began TO construct the Panama canal it
found seven pitiful lepers in the re-
public In an isolated and forlOrn build
ing. In 1905 II was voted TO spend $780,
600 for a suitable building for these
outcasts. In April, 1907, a hospital was
opened at Palo Seco and each patient
was given a plot of land on which he
might raise fruits and vegetables. and
so be partly self-supporting. The
Episcopal church. in establishing here
the Mission of the Holy Comforter. has
offered these Iepers practically the only
