MEDICAL HISTORY OF WAR
Record viii Be Kept Of the Work Of
Uncle Sans Surgeons and
Health Officers.

The surgeon general of the army.
Maj. Gen. William g. Gorgas, has es.
tablished board to collect material
for the medical and surgical history
Of American participation In the Euro
pean war. This board is composed Of
Col @. G. M Cullock, librarian of the
Army Medical Library; Maj. F. H. Gar
rison, assistant librarian in direct
charge of work on the history; and
Capt. John s. Fulton, secretary Of the
Maryland State Board of Health, who
will have charge Of the statistical work.
One phase Of the subject which will
be given attention is the advance made
In reducing both the number of cases
of disease and the death rate among
those cases occurring.
Some European countries are known
to be well along on medical histories
of the war. The medical history of
the Civil war in the United States is
made up Of six volumes, whose prep
aratlon covered a period of 2S years
from the end Of the war.
1t is planned to have the work done
relatively soon after the end of the
war, although the immense mass of
reports to be gone through and an
alyzed and the material from them as
sembled will probably require many
months work.

LADIES'! SECRET TO
DARKEN GRAY HAIR
Bring Back its Color and Lustre
with Grandma's Sage
Tea Recipe.

Common garden sage brewed into q
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri-
ant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur
recipe at home, though, is troublesome.
An easier way is to get the ready-to-
use preparation improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients, costing about
so cents large bottle, at drug stores,
known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" thus avoiding lot Of
muss.
While gray, faded hair is not sinful,
We all desire to retain our youthful
appearance and attract veness. BY
darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because 1t does 1t so naturally,
so evenly. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with II and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared. After another
application or two your hair becomes
beautifully dark. glossy, soft and lux
uriant and you appear years younger.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite. It is
not intended for the cure, mitigation
or prevention of disease.--Adv.

MAKE CLOTHES OUT OF PAPER
Germans Have Also Produced New
Textiles From Flbers Considered
Worthless, Says Uncle Sam.

Paper Is being used extensively in
the manufacture Of clothing in Ger
many according to information re-
ceived by Uncle Sans department Of
commerce, from Its commercial attache
at The Hague, Netherlands. Discuss
ing the general textile situation In Ger
many, the commercial representative
of the government says:
"a writer In the Frankfurter Zeitung
states that the spinning and weaving
industries In Germany in the past six
months have been more active than
could possibly have been expected.
Many new textiles have been produced
from artificial fibers that hitherto have
been considered worthless. Paper is
finding an ever-increasing use In the
manufacture of clothing. The activ-
ity Of the artificial silk industry has
caused such demand for operatives
that the labor market Is not able to
meet the situation. The creation Of
special clothes-repairing establish
ments has given employment to large
number Of men who are disqualified
for military service, In the cotton
and wool weaving and spinning indus
tries comparative idleness reigns."

DRINK MORE WATER
IF KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat and take Salts for
Backache or Bladder
trouble.

Uric acid in meat excites the kid
neys, they become overworked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel like Jumps Of
lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the
bladder is irritated, and you may be
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night. When the kid
neys clog you must help them flush
off the body's urinous waste or you'll
be real sick person shortly. At first
you feel dull misery in the kidney
region, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu-
matte twinges when the weather is
bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots Of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your kid
neys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine, so 1t no long
er Is source of irritation, thus end
ing bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active. Druggists
here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to
folks who believe in overcoming kid
ney trouble while 1t is only trouble

PROBES SICK BENEFITS
Uncle Sam investigates Conduct
of Various Organizations.
Membership Classification Based Upon
Earnings, Prevailing Practice In
Majority Of Cases.

An investigation has recently been
completed by the bureau of labor sta
tistics Of the department Of labor to
determine certain facts about nom
commercial sickness and disability
benefit funds as conducted (a) in es-
Establishments, for the benefit of en-
ployees by single firm, whether such
funds are conducted solely by the en-
ployees themselves, solely by the en-
ployer, or Jointly by both; (b) sick
ness and disability funds conducted by
national or international trade unions /;
(c) such funds conducted as an ac-
tivity of local trade unions.
The points sought to be emphasized
in this study, officials of Uncle Sans
bureau state, were the qualification for
membership; the benefits paid; the fire.
quency and duration of disabilities
In relation both to total membership,
and to total actual beneficiaries; and,
finally, the cost Of maintenance Of such
funds and the percentage of such cost
that goes to cash benefits to members
and to administrative expense.
1t was found that the membership of
the establishment funds consists to a
very large extent of wage-earning male
employees, although no distinction is
made between salaried and wage-earn-
ing applicants. 1t is estimated that
females constitute less than 10 per
cent of the combined membership of
all funds. About two-thirds Of the
establishment funds have only one
class Of membership. The prevailing
practice, 1t was found, in about three
fourths Of the funds having classes is
to base the membership classification
upon the earnings Of the applicants or
members. When females join in large
numbers a special class is usually Gre
ated for them.
In the great majority Of the funds
by the national or interna-
tional labor organizations the amount
of cash benefits paid per week is rath-
er small, the average In all but two
funds being less than $5.
Few of the national organizations
have any accounting system furnishing
data regarding the cost of administer
ing the sick benefit features. In terms
of a percentage of the total cost of
the schemes the administrative cost In
five organizations was 22.5, 12.6, 12.4,
8.3, and 6.5 per cent, respectively, an
average Of slightly over IL per cent.

HEALTH is IMPORTANT
Basis for All Work In Schools,
Declare Experts.
VncIe Sans Agencies Arc Working to
Extend Sanitary Regulations Of
Cities Of Rural Communities.

The most important element In the
education of children is the establish.
Ing Of good health and right living
habits, according to those experts OF
Uncle Sans bureau Of education who
make this their life problem. Half q
century ago the attention Of those re-
sponsible for the care OF children in
city schools was drawn to these i'm
portant features of school and life and
work, and much has been done, say the
experts, In the last two decades for
the improvement Of the sanitary fea-
lures of school houses and grounds and
for school regimen in cities.
Only recently, however 1t is pointed
out, has much attention been given to
health conditions in country schools,
but rural school sanitation is now re-
ceiving the attention of several govern
mental and state agencies. An inter-
esting study Of rural school sanitation
has recently been completed by the
United States public health service in
a certain part of the state Of Indiana.
1t is thought that the conditions
found In that locality are at least In
the main, those that exist to more or
less degree In many Of the rural schools
In the country. For one thing 1t was
found that there is an undue number
Of one-room rural schools. Among
other things 1t was thought by the Of
dcials making the survey that an un-
due number of old buildings are being
utilized which have largely passed the
limits Of usefulness for educational
purposes. Many of these, 1t is said,
were without the proper sanitary IA
cllities and some were even without
any water supply. Many had faulty H.
of the classrooms and still
others were without adequate class
room equipment; some were improper
ly heated and poorly ventilated and
still others presented evidences Of In
efficient janitor's service.
The large number of children pre-
senting physical defects Of such gravity
as to demand specialized medical and
surgical attention, say the experts, is
an evidence of the need Of medical
supervision of the school children Of
the counties In the interests Of the
child's educational advancement and
for the protection of the community
health.
The undue number of mentally de-
tective and retarded school children
revealed by the study made emphasizes
the necessity, say the experts, Of the
mental classification of the children for
the purpose Of revealing those who are
in need of institutional or Individual
Zed treatment.

OUR BOYS in FRANCE
AND HOME PROTECTION

The men on the firing line represent
the pick of our American youth. One In
four of our boys at home was sick, re-
jected because Of physical deficiency.
Many times the kidneys were to blame.
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 Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, says
that you should drink plenty Of water
daily between meals. Then procure at
your nearest drug store Anuric double
strength). This An-u-ric drives the uric
acid out and cures backache and rheum-
atism.
If we wish to keep our kidneyspin the
best condition a 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
Step into the drug store and ask for
Anuric, or send DR.. Pierce 10c for trial
pkg. Anuric, many times more potent
than lithia, eliminates uric acid as hot
water melts sugar. A short trial will
convince you.-Adv.
