WAR AIDS GENERAL HEALTH
Sight of Sturdy Soldiers and Sailors on the Streets Declared to Have
 Had Good Effect.

An observing physician says that the presence in New York's streets of many soldiers and sailors has an indi- rect effect on the health of civilians. He believes that most persons become initiative when they see one of Uncle Sam's men with head erect, shoulders back and chest thrown out The natur- al result is deep breathing, and from this comes improved digestion and cir culation, thus causing better health.
 The doctor called attention to the fact that Poe in pointing out the psy- chologica1 effect of one person on an- other in regard to acts and manner isms said he could figure many thoughts of persons in the streets by watching their actions. As an illus tration, Poe told of a man hurrying along in a slouchy manner until he ap- preached a hunchback, when he im- mediately strengthened, the similarity of carriage causing an unconscious effort at the instant the hunchback,s misfortune was flashed to the brain of the normal man.
 Still another influence affecting the general health of the public, due to the war, is the increased number of patri- otic men who have gone into training after rejection by army or navy sur geons due to minor physical disability. Others, too, have undergone lesser sur gical operations, long neglected, so that they might pass.

 Sister Is German Countess.
 Mrs. Bradley Lee is sister of the beautiful Mary Lee, who married Count Waldersee, former chief of the German general staff. She was for merly the intimate friend of the kaiserin, and is rumored to have taught religion to the kaiser" several years before the war.
 Mrs. Bradley Lee often visited her titled sister in Berlin or Altona. be- fore the war, and had large ac- quaintance in the German "army set," among which Countess Waldersee moved.
 The German army under Von Kluck occupied Chantilly, after Creil and Senlis, during the first weeks of the war, and a German general and his staff stopped in Mrs. Bradley Lees chateau, doing no damage there, al- though the Rothschild estates and the property of Duchess de Chartres, ad- joining were footed by the invaders.
 This fact, together with the fact that 1t was known that Mrs. Bradley Lee had a sister married to a German field marshal, caused considerable gos- sip, and there have been many un- founded rumors current that the beau dful American woman who has Op- erated the hospital at Crei1 for so long had been arrested for giving inteln- gence to the enemy.
