booze as necessary in fighting infiu-

that has gone out of fashion as far
as the medical profession is concern
ed" Indeed, the reputable physicians
of Philadelphia and Pennsylvania
have given support to the orders of
DR.. Roger, state health commissioner,
in prohibiting, during the epidemic,
the sale. of alcoholic beverages
through retail or wholesale trade.
But why waste energy III refuting
Mr.. Gilmore's statements? Their in
fluence should be nil if for no other
reason than that they so plainly bear
the stamp of commercialism and are
dictated, not by desire to aid the
physicians and health officers in
checking the dread pestilence, but on

Commercialized Advice.

With almost desperate eagernes:

weeks has taken such terrible toll

advice, which has been urgently Civ

ments and, indeed, openly defying by
law violations the over-burdened
guardians of public welfare.
One notorious agent of the drink
trade, Tom Gilmore by name, in a
letter to the Surgeon General of the
United States Army urged that "qui-
nine and whisky be used in the army
camps and that it be recommended
for trial by the civilian population,
especially in those sections wherein
prohibition propaganda has made it
a fad in medical circles to decry the
use of liquor as medicinal agent,
despite the fact that it's value has
been we'll demonstrated repeatedly
throughout the entire history of our
civilization"
Mr.. Gilmore shows not only dense
ignorance of the effect of alcohol on
the human system but equal lack of
knowledge as to the attitude of in
telligent physicians generally toward
liquor as medical remedy. Of course
in common with all well-informed
people, he knows that large proper
tion of doctors in both license and
prohibition territory have discarded
alcohol as a panacea for physical ills.
DR.. Charles Mayo, president of the
American Medical Association, res
ident of Minnesota, which is not a
prohibition state, was strong IN his
denunciation of its use as was his
successor, DR.. Arthur Dean Bevan,
a physician of prominence and stand
ing in license Chicago. DR.. Haven
Emerson, ex-health commissioner of
pro-liquor New York, has been equal
ly outspoken in regard to the matter.
When DR.. William C. Woodward,
health commissioner of Boston, was
waited upon by the officers of the To-
cal liquor dealers association with
an offer of free alcoholic liquors for
use in influenza cases, he is reported
to have told these men that in his
Judgment the use of alcohol for that
purpose was distinctly contrary to
the best medical opinion of the day
and he could not accept their propo-
sition. DR.. A. A. Cairns, chief medi-
cal inspector of wet Philadelphia's
bureau of health, said only the other

small proportion of the donors have

Besides the funds for the French
orphans, over $3.50 has been contri.

The financial "drives" inaugurated
by many states have been responsible

Eomesteads FOR Returning Sol
diers.

Columbia, S. c., Oct. 25.-For the
ultimate purpose of supplying home
rsteads to returning soldiers, Governor
Manning has had listed through the
department of agriculture 100000
acres of land in the eastern section
of South Carolina. The maximum
acreage available, according to the
governor, probably will reach $500
900 acres. The land thus far listed
is situated in Hampton, Colleton,
Charleston, Berkeley, Georgetown,
Williamsburg, Clarendon, Chester
field, Marion and Horny counties.
This survey was done at the behest
Of the federal government, which has
tentative plans for supplying home
steads to soldiers who are now fight
ing overseas. The concrete plans of
the government, if they have been
perfected, are not known to Govern
or Manning. He expects to have
conference with Franklin K. Lane,
secretary of the interior in Washing
ton, soon, when the matter will be
gone into thoroughly. At that time
he will furnish the government list
of the lands available in South Car
olina.
The governor presumes that the
government will purchase the lands
and sell them direct to soldiers de-
string to make agriculture their life
work. 1t is thought that the land
will be divided into small tracts and
sold to the soldiers on easy and long
payments, which probably will be
handled by the federal farm loan
banks.
Governor Manning says that some
of the land listed will have to be
drained but he believes this can be
done at small cost. Lieut.-Col. j. Mon
roe johnson, of the South Carolina
Engineers, now serving in France,
before the war woo -rerhiug ON
scheme for the draining of South
Carolina coast lands. He thought at
that time they could be drained for
from S1.50 to $3.50 per acre.
The tracts listed, the governor says
are superb for agricultural purposes.
Much of the soil is virgin and will
make great trucking land in which
the coastal plains abound. Proper
drainage, he says, will greatly en-
hance the value of the land.
Governor Manning declares that
the settling of these great areas will
be decided boon to South Carolina.
1t will strengthen the morale of the
people of the state, improve educa-
tional facilities and increase the land
owning population of the state, all
of which will work for the betterment
of South Carolina.
The governor says that he will at
tempt to have native South Carolin-
ians given the first choice when the
soldiers return, the remaining lands
to go to fighting men of other states.
According to information received
by the governor, the federal govern
ment has selected certain states,
where there are large uncultivated
tracts Of tillable soil, among them
South Carolina, for the colonization
scheme.

Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes
the' hair brittle
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap,
and beats the most expensive soaps or
anything else all to pieces. You can
get this at any drug store, and a few
ounces will last the WHOLE family for
months
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspooniul is
all that is required. 1t makes an abund-
ance Of rich, creamy lather, cleanses
thoroughly, and 'rinses out easily. The
hair dries quickly and evenly and is
soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wayy
and easy to handle Besides, it loosens
