which includes the residence of Senator

RHEUMATISM ALL GONE"
From the Extension Division of the
University of Wisconsin.
n. e. DEARHoLT., M D., DIRECTOR

Last summer I was introduced to a
gentleman who stretched forth his left
hand instead of his right one for the
handshaking part of the ceremony. He
fastened to explain that he had a
mighty painful elbow as a result of
playing golf. When som cone remarked
that it was surprising that hitting a
little golf ball would produce so painful
an injury as that, he replied with We
hemence which only other golfers will
understand:
Thunder, it wasn't hitting the ball,
but missing it and digging up the
ground, that did it.
The other day I met him again and
noted that he shook hands this time
with his right hand. 1t looked as if a
cold winter and rainy spring, by
making golf impossible, had allowed his
elbow time to recover. But this was
not his explanation:
cit wasn't golf at ALL, he said.
"The pain persisted during the winter
when I wasn't playing, so went to a
surgeon for examination.
1.-THE surgeon looked my elbow over
carefully, shook his head, and asked
me to open my mouth. He then pro-
ceeded, very much to my surprise. to go
over my teeth. After a few moments,
he told me to go to DR.. Blank and have
an XRay examination made of my
jaw.
LAS result of the x Ray, and other
examinations, DIR. Blank told me that
one Sof my teeth should be extracted
and the socket scraped to clean out a
little pocket of germ infected tissue
surrounding the end of the tooth.
agreed after hearing the opinion that
the 'focal Infection might be response

that, furthermore, [ might contract a
more serious case of rheumatism and
even possible heart disease from such
a source.
CAS- result of the extraction of the
tooth, the pain disappeared quite
promptly from my elbow, and believe

MAY ADOPT DECIMAL SYSTEM
England Seriously Considering Aban.
doning Its Anticipated Currency In
Favor of Simplicity.

England may adopt the decimal sys-
tenn for its currency. The agitation
for this reform appears to be gaining
favor with the British people, and
among the important agencies behind
the movement is the Associated Cham
Der Of Commerce of the United King
dom. For generations schoolboys have
been learning this: Four farthings
make one penny, twelve pence make
one shilling, twenty shillings make one
pound, twenty-one shilIings sterling
make one guinea, twenty shillings ster-
ling make one sovereign.
Then there were the symbols to
learn-the capital Il" with a short
line across the shank Of the letter for
the Latin libra" Or pound; the little
IS" for shilling. or the Latin solidus;
the little cd for denarius, or penny,
and the "qr" for "quadrans," or quar-
ter Of a penny, standing for farthing,
though latterly far came to stand
generally for farthing. All American
schoolbOys have studied the table Of
English money in that part of their
arithmetic dealing with reduction"
which is the changing, of numbers
either simple or compound, from one
denomination to another without alter
ing their values" Many men will prob
ably remember that as boys they
worked and 4abored over two kinds Of
reduction" which were called 'reduc-
ton descending and reduction ascend
ing"
The decimalizing Of English money
is, Of course, in the line of simplitica-
ton. Some OF the financial powers
and papers are urging that parliament
take the matter under consideration,
and it is likely to come UP for official
treatment and discussion at any time.

WOULD BRING BACK OLD COIN
Our Daddies Found Many Uses for
Copper Two-cent Pieces, and Its
Restoration Is Urged.

The American Newspaper Publish
ers' association has recommended the
return to the tWo-cent piece. Do you
remember the old two-cent coin, with
the big figure ''2' on it? It vas decor
ated with q wreath and almost every
thing else that could be crowded onto
it.
It was used principally for the chill
dren to play with. 1t was too big for
the baby to swallow and large enough
to be found when once it was lost
When the Sunday school kids read of
the woman in the Bible who had lost a
coin and searched the house until she
found it, they Immediately associated
1t with the tWO-cent piece and wonder
ed why there should be any trouble
about its recovery.
But it was good old family coin, new
ertheless, and would buy two pieces of
licOrice or one all-day sucker. 1t WAS
not without its advantages, either for
the Sunday collection. 1t looked big,
anyway, and made very respectable
noise when it was tossed into the plate
on top of a pile of other coins
To have the old tWo-cent coin with
us again would remind us Of the good
old days and work no hardship on our
financial system. SO, let us have it
with the big figure 90" on one side, the
wreath and the national shield, and ev-
erything, just as big as life.-Kansas

DavIioht Saving Worked Well.

In the United Kingdom during the
four and half months that daylight
saving was practiced in 1916, it is
claimed that the saving in gas alone
conserved 100000 tons of COAL The
expenses to consumers were reduced
by S2,375,OO0. Electric light compan-
les reported a reduction Of about 20
per cent.
In France fuel used for illuminate
ing purposes was 10 per cent less af-
ter the daylight saving program was
adopted.
In Germany the Berlin municipal
gas works reported in May and June
of 1915 a decrease Of 508,500 cubic
meters, in spite Of the fact that 49,
900 new gas meters had been installed
during the previous six months.

In Defense.

A negro soldier at one of the cam
tonments insisted that he wanted to
take out the full limit of insurance,
$4,000. One Of the white soldiers re-
monstrated with him, telling him it
would be foolish to pay on so much,
for he was likely to be shot in the
trenches. To this the negro answered !:
'Huh, I reckon I knows what Use
dom. Use dom this in self-defense.

Fuel Value of Coal Lessened.

Careful estimates made by the dl-
rector of the bureau of mines and
his associates indicate that while last
years coal output of 60O,OOO,OOO tons
will probably be increased to 65O,OOO,-
900 tons this year, the effectiveness of
this fuel will be equivalent to pro-
duction of normally prepared coal ag-
gregating only 570,00O,00O tons. The
reason for this surprising discrepancy
is that much of the coal is not being
prepared with the usual care. 1t is
calculated that there is per cent
more ash content in this years coal
than in that of previous years. In
other words, Approximately 100000
carloads of ash are being added to
the burden borne by the railways.
1t has been shown that the inclu-
sion of per cent more ash in the
coal means a reduction in efficiency in
the remaining good coal Of 71a per
cent Stating the case another way,
the total reduction in the GOALS e.
Effectiveness is 1914 per cent.
