STRANGE CASE OF FORMER KEN.
TUCKIAN IN CALIFORNIA

A case unusual in California medi-
cal annals and one which is puzzling
local physicians is that of Clark L.
Hume, formerly of Fayette county,
KY, who died ten minutes after he
has been stung on the wrist by bees
at his ranch near Santa Anna, Cali.
1t is believed that the sting of the
bees was so violent that the venom
was injected into vein and conveyed
to the heart which caused immedi-
ate action on the blood.
Hume came to Los Angeles several
years ago from Kentucky and has
amassed considerable fortune, own
ing one of the largest ranches in the
district.

HOOVER ASKS RESTAURANTS TO
SHORTEN THEIR MENUS

Measures to lessen the variety of
foods served in hotels and restaur-
ants of the United States were taken
Saturday by the Food Administration
John NICE. Bowman, who is in charge
of the Administrations work among
public eating places, telegraphed his
representatives in all the States to
urge hotels and restaurants not to
serve many kinds of foods needed for
shipment abroad. .....
Mr.. Bowman believes that from
fifty to 100 items of food can be elm
mated from menus, and under his
plan most eating places would serve
regular luncheons" somewhat on
the order Of table d'hote meals.
In asking the hotel men of the
country to cooperate with him with
out regard to legal authority to en-
force restrictive regulations, Mr.
Bowman said he believed it possible
to eliminate steaks and roast beef
except two or three times weekly.

NEW YORK, June Speaking
before an audience composed largely
of nerve specialists and dietitians at
the Waldorf here, DIR. Robert j. Mac
Ingels, the distinguished surgeon,
laid particular stress upon the i'm
portance of keeping the blood in a
healthy condition as a means of
warding off disease; and called atten-
ton to the fact that many people, in
an endeavor to stave off or relieve So
called spring fever" gorge them
selves with sulphur, calomel, sarsa-
parilla and similar connections which
not only thin the blood, but cause 1T
to become "watery" and unhealthy,
thus exposing themselves to the raw
ages of any disease which may beset
them, and at the same time weaken
ing and undermining their entire
system. He said in part:
Every few people are cOgniZant of
the importance of keeping the blood
in strong and healthy condition as a
prophylaxis against disease, and it is
the duty of the medical profession to
instruct the public in this prime es-
sential of good health.
81 am sorry to have to confess that
there are members of our profession
who, for the love of the almighty dol
lar, still keep their patients in ignor-
ance on this most important sub
ject; and still others, styling them
selves physicians, who resort to the
Black-Age doctrine of prescribing
such nostrums as tend to weaken the
blood, thus causing it to become
'watery,' and thereby superinducing
various forms of anaemia and gen
eral debility.
This practice should be vigorous
ly prosecuted, and only such RENE

JUST HOW GOOD WAR SAVINGS

1t is appropriate at this time to
again call attention to the value of
the War Savings Stamp as an invest
ment. In the first place it is almost
unnecessary to say they are the safest
investment that can be made, back
ed as they are by the strongest gov
eminent in the world. They will al
ways remain at par, not being SUBJ
ject to the market fluctuations of
other securities, even of the Liberty

HOW TO AVOID THE FLY.

Flies dislike blue and will avoid a
room decorated in that color, accord
ing to S. Dana Hubbard, the newly
appointed director of the Bureau of
Public Health Education, who inau
gurated "swat-the-fy" day in New
York by publishing some new rules
for getting rid of the pests. It has
been learned from tests that flies will
not go through Stats of a blue shut
ter, Mr.. Hubbard declared. Other
advice to fly swatters follows:
Flies hate oil of lavender. If this
is mixed with an equal quantity of
water and sprayed from an atomizer
about a dining room, the room will
be free from flies.
Files hate the perfume of geran-
iums, mignonette, heliotrope, white
clover, honeysuckle and hop bios
SONS. Bouquets of these upon a ia
BILE will keep the flies at distance. :"

FUTURE OF THE WAR

A prominent financial authority
gives this estimate of Allied reseur-
ces and the future of the war:
Just at the critical moment,
when the scales were almost even
ly balanced between the Entente
Allies and the Teutanie Allies, the
United States, with its great wealth
and resources, entered the conflict
with a possible 22.OO0,OOQ men to
draw upon, with it's National wealth
of $225, 600, 100000, National in
come of S40,000,000,00O, National
savings estimated in the neighber-
hood of S5,000,OOO,000 year, and
has thrown its weight into the scale,
prepared to put behind the entente
group effective cooperation to Sc
cure the success of the principles Of
democracy. The task before us is
q tremendous one, but the cause is
worthy of the task and the Nation
will meet the obligation which it has
assumed with its usual energy and
resoureefulness, and, therefore, ef-
fectiYeE, There can be no doubt as
to the final outcome, but the war
will unquestionably prove to be
costly both in men and in property,
and If we are to win it will be nee
essary for all classes of the people
to work together to that common
end and it will also be necessary to
work in close cooperation with our
Allies across the sea-

TWO-CENT PAPERS

"HE newspapers of New York will
sell at two cents the copy here
after. Increased cost of white
paper, wages and operating expenses
generally have forced the advance in
price. Because many of them had
long time contracts for white paper
or owned their own mills they were
able to hold out at one cent longer
than smaller papers. But even they
finally reached the place where two
cents a copy or bankruptcy were the
only alternatives.
The penny paper of to-day is be-
ing operated at a loss. Unless it is
backed by millions and is being pub
hshed for reasons best known to its
owner, it is heading full tilt for the
sheriff's hands. At all events the
reader must either be content with
"a poor and declining newspaper or
accept the bounty of a wealthy pub
Usher who is not printing newspapers
merely for the fun of it and who has
something to present beside news.

Indictment of War Dept.

No one who reads Mr. Chamber
lain's speech in the Senate on Thurs
day-Mr. Wilson viii no doubt read
it-can fail to be impressed by the
spirit of loyalty to the President that
pervades the Senator's remarks. Eyi-
IDENTIFY Mr.. Wilson must have spoken
hastily in his resentment when, in a
public statement to the country, he
inferred opposition to the admins
tration's whole policy rather than
amy serious intention to reform its
practice" from the Senator's declara-
ton in New York that the military
establishment had fallen down =
because of inefficiency in every
bureau and in every department of
the government of the United
States"
Mr.. Chamberlains rejoinder will
clear the air of personalities, in
which the people are but little inter
ested. The Senator was not guilty of
IAN astonishing and absolutely up-
iustifiable distortion Of the truth"
He went too far, he spoke ungqard-
edly with more feryot than disere-
ton, when he extended his indict-
ment of inefiiciency to the whole
government. He has admitted that
frankly in his address to the Senate,
but the context showed, he submit
ted, that he had the military estab-
lishment in mind. A calm analysis Of
his statement and of the preceding
sentences warranted no other con-
clusion

his great services to nrepaFadnsss

ENTHRONE NEW GOD

Unless the German people will of
their own accord enthrone a more
righteous God, this war will have to
go on until we enthr0ne more
righteous God for them and replace
the. divine right of kings by the di-
vine right of the neople. Along
this avenue of human progress has
marched the majestic forces OF civ
ilization, from the fall of Nero to
the rise of WASHINGTON, and will
continue to march, until all nations
are agreed that Righteousness and
righteousness alone win exalt a ma
tion.
This war and the mighty forces
that are arrayed in it. the peace

one side and the military dynasties
of Germany, Austria and Turkey on

GAS ENGINES ON FARM

e. n. Bates, of the Pennsylvanis
State College school of engineering,
while addressing the farmers attend
ing Farmers Week at the college,
said the difficult problem confronting
the farmer to-day was the produc-
tion of q maximum amount of food
products at a minimum cost OF
production in man power. In order
to accomplish this it is necessary
to make careful use of the gasoline
engine he asserted.
1t has been estimated from the
1916 census report that there are up
wards of 25,000.000 horses and
mules in the United States. About
one-fifth of our land, now under
cultivation, is required to produce
the food necessary to maintain
these animals, and the time of
about 100000 men working twelve
hours day Is consumed in the care
of these animals. A large part of
this food producing land and of the
labor of these men can be released
for other purposes, by the proper use
of the gasoline tractor and truck.
The care of a gasoline engine is
very slmnle. if the directions Of the
manufacturer are followed closely.
Ordinarily the engine only REQUIRES
to be fabricated and adjusted. Bear
inga should not be allowed to pound.
and the hest oils obtainahle should
be used,

hearty a welcome by Americans who
have had the luck to see them.
Greatest of all commentator, Ger
man prisoners have been known to
become hilarious over these inde-
acribable pictures of life in the
trenches, and VARIED 'Arommys"
roar over them. Now, with their
amusing captions, they have been
gathered into one volume.
These pictures have won in Eng
land for the author the title The

and caused the Literary Digest to
refer to him as "A War Lord of
Laughter" They are all war pic
lures, but calculated to take q deal
of the bitterness out of war.

THE PEOPLES FORUM

peater who comes back thinking,
perhaps, he will try and see If he can
call the Mayors bluff, as he perhaps
thinks the Mayor and his department
is doing. 1t is a certainty that His
Honor intends to make good his
political promise to the people prior
to his election that he would rem
Ger them a clean administration and
rid the city of all its undesirable
citizens.
While Mayor Keister is in this
frame of mind let us hope that he
will not close an eye or turn deaf
ear to the remaining few women who
still operate within the very shadow
walking distance of the railroad
shops in Seventh htreet, much to
the detriment of the workmen.
There are still in operation certain
houses in South Court street that
are run wide open and without fear
or shame. 1t does seem to operate
these houses requires a certain
amount of shame, but to run them
within the very shadow of the court
house is adding insult to injury and
should be stopped Immediately, in
esmuch as these are about the
only houses of this kind running
of our busy Market street. Let us
hope for good results from our
worthy Mayer in this respect and
may he give the Seventh street dis
trict a cleaning out so that we do not
have another Eighth ward as of old
The good people of Harrisburg
are proud of their Mayor and his
good beginning, and they stand by
him in his endeavors to give them
that which is best needed in these
times of war and economy.
