SURGEONS DO GREAT WORK
Rehabilitation of Wounded Soldiers
Seems Little Short of Miraculous
to a Civilian.

Foster Debevoise of South Orleans,
N. j., on a recent tour through France
and England, visited the armies at the
front, and speaks with enthusiasm of
their indomitable spirit and unfailing
hopefulness.
In commenting he speaks on tho
work done for wounded soldiers:
"The men In English cities, of whom
! saw hundreds, without legs or arms.
or with reconstructed faces, and those
in hospitals in process of being mend
ed, all had the same words: If only
] could go back again And this
brings me to another wonderful thing,
and that is the way the hospitals are
performing miracles. When finally,
sometimes after months and months of
treatment, the reconstructing process
is finished, the men are taught trades
and placed in positions SO that they
are enabled to take up their lives
again with large degree of happiness.
Straps operate as muscles on artificial
legs and arms; and | have seen such
men swing a hammer, play golf, kna,
or work at lathes. 1t Is almost incred-
ible what is being done. Hats off to
the doctors, I say!"
The United States government will
apply the same methods of recon-
struction to those of our boys that are
disabled or Standardization COuth|

Rubber In japan.

The rubber manufacturing industry
In Japan has developed greatly within
the past year In the scope and variety
of IT. products. In the export trade,
too Importance Is increasing The
growth Of the industry may be seen
from the steady increase in the im-
port of crude rubber. The official trade
returns state that the import in 1917
totaled 9,6S9,632 yen over the figure
for 1915. Formerly most Of the auto
mobile tires used in Japan We're inn
ported into that country, but now the
greater part Of Japan's needs are sup
piled by domestic manufacturers. The
export of automobile tires has also
begun with the development of rubber
plants In Japan.

Nature Gives Cry for Help,

Winter and Catarrh are compan-
lens in evil. Catarrh is sweeping
civilization from one continent to
another, because civilization does
not follow Natures laws. Nature
tells us what to do and we pay no
heed
Down deep in the body of man lie
streams OF blood, going everywhere
and making IA complete circuit Of
the body every few seconds. In
these rivers. brooks and streamlcts
OF blood flow millions OF little sol
diers called corpusclcs. whose duty
it is to heal hurts, cxpc the enemies
Of germs-from the body and
carry away impurities.
Nature. with the blood. builds
bone and hair and teeth and flesh.
She does this so quickly and with
such absolute perfection that If wo
put into our mouths and stomachs
the things the body needs. nature
Will distili her own chemicals and
build up any tOrn-down portions.
Catarrh is a tearing down OF mn
cous membranes. A mucous mem
hrqnc is one OF the wonders of sci.
eace. II does the important work
Of the body in some lines. When IL
becomes diseased. you quickly have
the alarm from nature. Catarrh, In
