WATER And EFFICIENCY
BY n. ADDINGTON BRUCE.
Copyright, 1881

Though you may not suspect 1t. there
is direct relation between the amount
of water you drink daily and your abil-
ity to do your daily work well.
Many people, believe it would be
safe to say most people-drink too lit
tie. Some do not drink even a single
glassful with each meal.
Whereas, the rule ought to be to
drink daily not less than eight glasses
Of water. Ten would be mono too
many.
Only people who suffer from any
dropsical condition or whose hearts
are weak should limit their daily con-
sumption Of water to a small amount
If heart patients drink much water
the increase in their blood supply may
give their hearts too much to do.
All others will profit from adopting
the eight or ten glassfuls rule They
will gain alike in health, in efficiency
and in good looks.
By drinking water freely the skin
will be kept soft and smooth, and the
1ow Of blood to the little vessels near
the surface will be increased.
Impurities will be washed out Of the
blood, products of oxidation will be
dissolved. the action of the kidneys
be less likely to develop.
AS a result the quality of the blood
supply to the brain will be improved.
With this improvement in the brains
nutrition a definite enlargement of
mental power will be obtained.
Concentration of attention will be
easier, and it will not SO soon cause
fatigue. Ideas will flow more readily.
check will be put on tendencies to
mental drowsiness.
now liberal drinker of water. In
crease the amount you take daily and
note the results. You are likely to be
gratifyingly surprised.
Do not be afraid to drink with your
meals. Much has been said alleging
the harmfulness of drinking with
means. But. as stated by George D.
Bussey in hi his recently published and
giene:'
Recent experiments tend to show
that drinking water at meals is a
good practice. which improves both
the appetite and the digestion. Some
authorities recommend a glass or two,
and others as much as one pleases.
Care should be taken not to wash
the food down. It Is not well to take
any liquid into the mouth Willie it
contains food. as this favors fast eat
ing and allows Jumps to be swal-
lowed"
Beware, moreover. of overindulgence
in ice water. A little ice water will
do no harm If the ice is pure But
don't get into the habit of drinking
only water that is iced.
And do not drink any cold water the
last thing before going to bed. Cold
water in the stomach sometimes has
the effect Of preventing sleep.
Otherwise you can drink water when
ever you please. between meals as
we'll as with meals. And do make It a
point to drink water often, for your
health's sake and the sake Of your ef-
1ciency.

The German government has refused

the power OF nullifying contracts with
citizens Of hostile countries be extend
ed to include the United States The
original decree Of the bundesrat for
such qualifications extended only to

colonies, and covered all kinds OF con-
tracts, including leases. 1t was issued
December 16. 1915. The request of the
war committee specified it's extension
to include all other powers at war with
Germany. This the department of
justice declined. although q month ago
it approved an extension to include con-
traots with citizens Of Russia and Fin
land, which now probably will be re-
voked as a result Of the armistios Of

PARIS. France, December 15.-Unity
of front-that is the password for all
Americans. Let US not fall into the er-
ror of thinking that we can win the
war alone. Three thousand miles from
the scene of action. we can at best put
a relatively small force in the field. 1t
is right that American officers should
think they are going to have the best
army in the field and that they can
pierce the German line where France,
England and Italy have failed. But we
can win only by the united cooperation
of all the allies. Let US not be misled
by national pride to neglect the i'm
portance of united action. We have
sufficient examples Of that situation in
Europe today.
England Is still standing out against
a single staff for fear an Englishman
would not be the chief,
Why is this? Because the English
press, egged on by the censor. has ex-
aggerated the prowess of the British
army. Successes have been puffed un-
til reality stands aghast at the distor-
tion. The British public thinks that
the British army is having such sue
cess against the German army that sin
gle handed 1t can pull on victorious
offensive and that Germany will go
down before the onslaught, regardless
of what Is done on other fronts. On a
small front the British have massed
huge armies. AT the scale they are go
ing it would take ten years to defeat
Germany unsupported by onensfves on
other fronts. Long before that end is
achieved the peoples OF the entente
would force an inconclustve peace and
England would be beaten,
Look Truth in Face.
We Americans at least should escape
this danger. Surely we dare to look the
prejudice for the sake Of winning the
war We can recognize the imperative
need of striking Germany at all points
In order that her resources OF men. ma
teriaI and nerve power may be tested
to the utmost In the number of our
allies lies our strength. Why not take
| advantage of 1t? Why let Germany
continue to destroy the power of her
enemies one by one in isolated. unsup-
ported combat? Today in Italy the
| italian army Is left to redeem itself.
| No military commission of France and
England is assisting In its reorganiza-
