RAW POISON THROUGH SKIN
Baltimore Physician Believed He Has
am Effective Cure for Rheuma-
tism in the Idea.

DR.. Fred Prldham Of Johns Hopkins
hospital in Baltimore has devised a
treatment for Joint affections, such as
rheumatism, that is being used very
successfully at the military hospitals
where 1t has been introduced. He
uses a mineral, double nitro-peroXide,
which actually extracts the inhamma-
tion.
The salt Is mixed with a starchy
substance which holds its action until
it is placed on the skin over the dis
eased bone, from which It extracts the
impurities, the germs and their poi
sons.
The material is sprlnkled on lint
or gauze and placed on the skin over
the diseased bone. When the doctor
removes the dressings. from six to
twelve hours later, there will be seen
blisters on the skin. If there is no
infection the salt will not affect the
skin.

\ When first AeOlus set the sails of
Hlndmills in motion Is not known, but
there were mills in Europe when
Caedmon sang OF the dawn and doom
of the world In the monastery on the
wild coast of Britain. There is some
thing fantastic and inhumanly large
about the great rotating arms. which
has impressed the imagination of men.
Pantagruel beheld the giant devouring
all the brass pots and pans of the
Tohu Bohu islands for lack Of wind

other side Of the Pyrenees the Knight
of Sorrowful Countenance, beholding
those so or 40 giants of the plain Of
Montiel, recommended himself to Dull

quences to himself and ROslnante all
the world knows. Unfortunately for
Don Quixote the windmills of La

peror of Russia intended to carry off
Battersea church to his own country.
Battersea refused to part with its
church and the packing case remained
where it had been deposited. On that
small section of the coast Of Holland
between Amsterdam and Zaandam
mills are to be counted by the hum
bred, gayly painted mills, as is the
fashion with the Dutch though the
white mills of the softly gray East
Anglican coast are not unknown. A
landmark in the country is the great
white mill outside Bergen op Zoom
on the road to Tholen. Painters have
not failed to record their sense of the
poetry of windmills In landscape.
Daubigny painted mills at work In a
windy sky with running water in the
foreground. Old Crome's white wind

bone buttons and buttonholes. There
is a narrow belt of the material across
the front of the coat with a button
at each end. Only one button APP
pears to fasten the front, but its re-
sponsibilities are lightened by the
nature Of the cloth which has a way
of clinging together. Possibly few
little snap fasteners help out.
The coat makes support FOR a
cape much longer, that covers the
arms and is beautifully joined to the
underwear at the sides. A narrow
collar of the same material supports
turnover collar of velvet in a dark

is wonderfully well suited to it. 1t

He Know the Cashier.

Young Leslie Harris, on his initial
visit to Pico Heights church, was
extremely interested when his father
started to take up the collection.
Unable to stand the strain, he deity
eluded his mother and attached him,
self as convoy to papa, following him
down the aisle with his eyes growing
larger and rounder as the money
flowed in.
This method of obtaining wealth
was new to him, but he thought he
knew its destination and as the ushers
reached the rear of the church and
turned for the solemn march to the
pulpit his voice rang over the room.

In an official announcement issued
to the 1854 chapters and 100000
members, Mr.. Dawson says:
1--WE must labor In cooperation with
the National Red Cross and relief so
cieties Of other nations to the end
that not alone the heart Of America,
but the heart Of all mankind, may be-
come modified OH behalf of suffering
humanity.
while, therefore, the plans of the
American Red Cross in this direction
cannot be formulated specifically in
advance Of the general relief program
Of the allied governments, the Ameri-
can Red Cross is nevertheless planning
10 develop its permanent organization
IN this country u0on a scale never be-
fore contemplated in time of peace.
"Study is beirg given by the ma
tional organization, not alone to prob
lens of international relief, but to
mans in this country for enlarged
home service, the promotion of public
health education, development of nurs-
Ing. the care anil prevention of acct
dents and other correlated lines which
NAV contribute to the health and hap
1niness Of men, women and children.
"For the completion OF its war
work and for the institution Of its
peace program, the Red Cross is for
tunately in a healthy financial condi-
zion. What the American Red Cross
needs now is not so much contribu-
lions of money. as the continued devo-
ton and loyalty Of its members"

What Doctor Pierce Has
Done for Humanity
BY DOCTOR CRIPPS.

It has always seemed to me that Dir
Pierce, Of Buffalo, N. Y, should be placed
near the top when a list of Americas
great benefactors is written. He studied
and conquered human diseases to . de-
gree that few realize Whenever he found
remedy that overcame disease, he at
once announced it in the newspapers nR6
told where it could be bought at q small
price. He did not follow the usual custOw
of keeping the ingredients secret, 80 that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed thu name Of
each root and herb he used. And 50 today
the names Of Or. Pierce and his medicineg
are widely known, and they stand for bet
ter health and better citizenship.

The very next thing that every one
thought about, as soon as the noise of
yhe peace jubilee died down, was
something new to wear. There was
an immediate reaction in the matter
Of dress, from the economizlng that
the war inspired, from the rather Sc
date colors and plain styles-from do
ing without-tO just the other things
Dressmakers are overwhelmed with
work and all women with one accord
want some new and pretty clothes.
This is the most natural feeling in
the world since clothes are our uni
versal means Of expression and we
must dress up to the joyousness Of
having our victorious soldiers home
again.
Wraps and coats of cloth or fur, or
both combined, have been made in a
great variety Of styles this season.
Originality in design has been a fea-
ture Of the styles so that a new

that invites comparisons. It appears
