One Plague Which War Increases Little
BY WOODS HUTCHINSON, NJ. D.

the warning countries. concludes
that the morbidity and mortality
from tuberculosis among the allied
nations has not increased during the
war.
Renon in France declares that
there has been no increase of tuber-
culosis either in the army or among
the civil population during the first
three years Of the war.
And all authorities are agreed
that such tuberculosis as does occur
among the soldiers is invariably the
stirring up OF an old healed focus,
the awakening of a sleeping infec-
ton, which existed long before the
war, as clearly shown by the case
histories.

one Of the few agreeable surprises
in this war has been its failure to
increase noticeably the diseases OF
under-feeding and malnutrition in
the allied countries. The best illus
tration and index of this is the sur
prisingly slight increase Of tuber-
culosis
This plague of course is not one
of the direct results of war. like ty-
phoid dysentery and the other camp
diseases. but in a long drawn out
struggle like this one, we should
naturally have expected that break
downs and depression among the
soldiers under the terrible strain
and hardships of war, and in the
home populations from worry and
grief and food shortage and over
crowding by refugees, would have
broken down the national resistance
and paved the way for a fatal
sweep.
But TO our delighted amazement
nothing of the sort has occurred.
There have been local increas
among special classes such as ref
ugees and prisoners of war and a
slight general increase from the
causes mentioned but most merci-
fully slight, not over 10 per cent.
The civilian population has been
saved by abundant employment at
high wages. with the best Of sani-
tary care and the army by good
feeding and splendid medical super
vision.

and made active and useful soldiers.
Burnand declares that many tn

from French sanatoria and enlisted.
and that the majority of them kept
up well and rendered excellent
service.
Faginoli reports that many Ital-
ian and Austrian consumptives in
the incipient stage went TO the front

service.
Banks traced as known cases,
most of them former sanatorium

English draft boards. and 10 of
them sent in to active service, and
out of the whole number only one

In Osler's opinion the number of

might have been expected if they

Here were received the men who
had broken down, presumably from
tuberculosis, or who had failed TO
pass the draft board for the same
cause. They were given thorough
and careful X-ray examination, their
sputum was tested under the micro
scope, and they were held under Oh
servatiOn for from one 10 three
weeks, meanwhile sleeping on great
galleries in the open air. literally
and abundantly fed. and given the
best and most skilled of medical
treatment. Then those who were
found not to be tubercular, which
were quite a considerable moiety of
the number, were sent back 10 their
regiments or to such work as they
were fitted for behind the lines.
Those that were in an early stage Of
the disease were sent 10 sanatoria
which the Italian government had
built since the war. up in the noun
tains while those for whom the out
look was less hopeful, or whose
disease was complicated by wounds
or other morbid conditions, were
sent to hospitals arranged for their
reception, each man being sent to
the Establishment nearest to his
home and family. There are now
nine OF these big government sana-
toria and six hospitals for the less
hopeful cases, with two hospital
trains specially fitted up for con-
sumptiye cases.

Albert Madonna Ledgen Lends :
 Luster To Grim Visage Of War

the story far and wide that when the statue fell France would lose the war. Now, the town of Albert possesses a most patriotic and eff fiCIent parish priest. No sooner did the Hun version of the story reach his ears than he sought out a skilled blacksmith. The two as- cended the half-ruined tower, sur veyed the broken base, and so prac- ed and riveted the statue in its re- cumbent position that fall it could not until the tower itself gave way. 50, for many a day, every British Tommy who marched to the front a long the road to Bapaume raised his wondering eyes to the Madonna high arove his head, and few there Were Of any denomination who fialed to fin1 in it's strange attitude a. species of benign benediction.

When the British retired the staatue was stul intact, put, whether by acci- dent or design is not yet known tne Germans brought down the tow CT, and with il fell the Virgin and Child. And here comes the strange part of the story, to which latest de velopment public attention is now directed for the first time. Hardly yard farther did hte German ad- vance progress. From that day to this the gray-green hordes have been pressed back, slowly at first but with an exer-increasing celerlty. Ia a word, the luck of the Germans has deserted them since the Virgin Of Albert was dethroned. From being the truculent conquerors Of nearly all Europe they are now on their knees whining for mercy.

The statue did not fall, nor was 1t greatly damaged, but the bsse was so shattered that 1t hung precariously over the main road from Amiens to Bapau1ne which passed under the very walls Of the beautiful old church. For some reason, when the red tide of war swept westard through Albert, the Hun did not complete the destruc- 'tioa Of the tower, and the statue still maintained it's strange poise af- ter the invaders had been rolled back by the Battle Of the Marne, Those were the days of great hope France was fighting with skill and determination.

In fact, here were oittmists who thought Germany would sue for peace before Christ maS-Christmas, 1914! Some hint of the trend of. popular thought was given by the quaint conceit which grew Up in the hearts of the people, namely, that when the Vir- gin Of Albert fell (as fall she must, in the opinion of all who saw the statue) the war would end in a victory for France and her Allies.

Portland, Dec. l3.-EffortS of Henry McGinn, attorney for Henry Albers, to postpone the date of the trial of his client who Is charged with violation Of the espionage act until public sentiment against such alleged offenses subsidies, failed this morning when Federal Judge Vol yern fixed the date for the com meneement of the suit for January Is. My client has a German name aud that is all there is agianst him aid McGinn to the court. There i' great prejudice against persons with German names at this time, and for that reason I do not believe my client can be given an impartial hearing. l think the case ought to be postponed until some Of this sent ment dies out or until peace Is de- clared."
 "The same plea might be made in behalf of any person charged with violation of the law" replica U. S. Attorney Haney. ''No doubt every one So charged would like to have his trial put off until the public i'm pression of his alleged act has been somewhat obliterated. Fixing the date of the trial for January l0 will give the defense three months from the time of the returning. or the indictment. It will take the gov ernment that length of time to com plets and prepare it's case and the defense is not entitled. to more tAne."

PRACTICAL ECONOMICS

With President wilson's party there will be 8 distinguished lec- turer oa economic history from Yale. Doubtless he will be well equipped for his special work and aOundantly able to prOpounG' gen eraI principles in a masterful way, and support them by historical facts These principles may be expected to present the last word on theoreti- cal economic justice.
 But they must be inteIligently an judiciously applied. It is trite to say that America, in common with other live nations, is facing new economic conditions whose effect is proOlcmatical. Economic history may furnish a chart by means of which We will bS able to avoid strik inc rocks or running into breakers, ou. ii is questionable whether the chart will show the shortest and ye. the safest course. We are au impatient people, neither un- willing nor unafraid to try new experiments, but our experience dur in, tbe past six years, covering periods of profound peace, anxious neutrality and war, have warned us against new economic policies made operative exclusively by theorists They need not be recounted.
 Cooperating with the lecturer on economic history in President Will sons party there should be eXperi- enced, practical men who in the light of history can ysiualize the fu- rure quite as clearly as the most in dustrious and well-informeG' student who has confined himself to stand ar, books. Americas eco omie problems are essentially her own' and after all is said they must he solved in practical ways. We wi not throw theories into the scrap heap nor hide the light of history under a busbel still, We will demand tha' practical men shall have a voice, equal at least to the the orist'- Geterminating new economic laws.

THE PRAISE OF APPLE TREES

Our mountain frs are straight and tall;
 And oaks there be with messy knees And pleasant shade; but, best of all
 For comradeship, are apple trees. Waist-deep in fragrant meadow grass, ' A kindly company are they; And what is richr than the mass Or bloom thhat ,buries them in May? Your hemlock signs of forest combe;
 Your pine of rocky height or glen; B~t apple orchards breathe of home,-
 Their trees have always dwelt with men.
 Beneath their bougis tie cattle 2raze,
 Among their leaves the robins flute, And bouptifully autumn weighs Their branches low with hardy fruit. Yes, elm and beecn have stately charms, ... -.: .,.. And so have sycamore and lime; But apple trees have friendly arms That beg a little boy to climb.

Killed by PoisOns

All scientists agree that poisonou,
products in the blood are eliminated BY
the kidneys and liver. The kidneys act
as a kind of filter for these products.
When the kidneys are changed or de-
generated, by disease or old age, then
these poisons are retained in the body.
If we wish to prevent old age coming
on too soon, or if we want to increase
our chances for long life, DR.. Pierce OF
the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, says
that you should drink plenty of water
daily between meals to flush the kidneys.
Then procure at your nearest drug store
Anuric. This Anuric drives the uric acid
out. Scientific men have learned that in
govt, also rheumatism, poisonous uric
acid crystals are deposited in or about
the joints, in the muscles - where in
hammation is set up.
If we wish to keep our kidneys in the
best condition diet of milk and vege-
tables. with only little meat once day, is
the most suitable. Drink plenty of pure
water, take Anuric three times a day for
a month. An-u-ric is many times more
potent than lithis and dissolves URIC
acid as hot water does sugar.
You can obtain q trial pkg. of Anuric
for lOc by writing Doctor V. M. Pierce,
Buffalo, n. Y. Large package 90 cents.

anything l have ever taken. They re-
lieved me of all the pain. l believe that
