FROM CIRLHOOD UP

Centervillc, Iowa:-"I have suffered
terribly at times since girhood, l was all
rundown and weak. Was advised to try
DR.. Piercc's Favoritc Prescription, and
when l took the first dose began to inn
prove. took only three bottles of it and
was cured. Have had five children and
have been in good health since. I have
frequently recommended the Prescription
to others. My sister has also had good
results from it''-MRS. FRANK B URNS,

tackled by these parasites. When a
number Of these worms get into the
windpipe and become swollen with
blood breathing becomes difficult and
even Impossible. Gaping, the charac-
tesistic symptom of the gapes, is the
natural result Of this choking.
Other Symptoms.
There are other symptoms, of course.
Some of these are the shaking of the
head, the contracting and the. exten-
sion Of the neck, the dropping Of the
wings and peculiar staggering gait,
doubtless caused by the choking and
the exhaustion Of the chicks.
Once in a great while gaping will be
caused by touch Of bronchitis, but as
rule it is associated only with the
attacks Of the tiny reddish worms that
fasten themselves in the chicks
trachea. They not only choke the
chicks, but they cause an irritation
that leads to Inflammation of the lin
ing of the air passages.
Weak chicks, attacked by cape
worms, will die nine times out of ten
as it is very hard to relieve them.
The strong chicks may have vitality
enough to overcome the trouble, but
they will lose in growth.
The worms are sometimes extract
ed from the upper throat by means Of
looped horse hair. This is a tedious
operation and hardly worth while
when there are many chicks to be
looked after. The best plan is to iso-
late the sufferers and move the re-
mainder away from the ground where
they have been feeding. Forcing the
chicks to breathe lime dust, fine, dry
air-slaked lime, will force the worms
to loosen their hold on the air pas
sages. As a rule, though, the chicks
are hardly strong enough to stand such
measures.
Other Harmful Worms.
9 In older birds the tapeworms and
round worms cause some losses. The
round worm is a cylindrical, smooth
parasite, tapering at both the front
and the rear, but the front is more
pointed than the rear. They are in
testinal parasites, bloodsuckers and
devourers of the nourishment needed
by the growing bird or the laying hen.
When very numerous they cause a
diarrhea or in some instances a stop
page of the intestines.
The remedy is two grains of san
tonin for each bird, dissolved in the
drinking water or mixed in and fed
with a mash. The round worm Is
white in coloring and may vary from
one-third of an inch to five inches In
length.
Now and again serious outbreaks Of
the tapeworm in poultry are reported
from various parts of the country. The
chief remedies used for tapeworm in
fowls are extract Of the male fern,
turpentine, pumpkin seeds, tie areca
hut and Epson salts.

Island Union and the scout execu-
tive will be present to make the
presentations. The cup which was
donated by the Union has been on
display in the Ramser Jewelry store
window for the last few days.
Every day large numbers of the
scouts have gazed longingly at it
and are already planning on hav-
ing it in their troop next year. The
troop now holding it will keep it
until the next meet is won. One
troop must win it three times in
succession before it becomes its
permanently.
The boys from Bethany Home
are being given an outing in the
country today under the leadership
of the scout executive and a num-
Der of the older scouts. The boys
left early this morning and will
return this afternoon. Over 80
boys were in the group and it is
an assured fact that the young
sters will enjoy the real live time
planned for them by the scouts
The boys will be taught how to
cook their own dinner over the fire
and then the rest of the time will
be spent in playing scout games.

The Day In Davenport

Establish Bathing Beach. - Es-
adjustment of a municipal bath
ing beach will be advocated in the
city council Wednesday by E. R.
McAdam, alderman-at-large from
the upper wards. He will ask the
council to make it the fifth to the
"big four" improvement program
which is scheduled for action at
the next meeting. An addition of
$4,000 to the bond issue which
will be floated to pay the big
four" costs will be requested. 1t
is likely that the plan will meet
with the approval of the entire
council. The most likely site for
such an institution will be Lee
Claire park, on the river front, be-
tween Main and Scott streets, the
alderman believes. He probably
will request that the city engineer
select a suitable spot for the i'm
provement, however. A beach,
complete with sand piles, dressing
rooms and all the equipment of
beaches in the larger ciLies, is Aid
erman McAdams' plan. He feels
that it will be the mecca of thous-
ands of Davenporters during the
hot weather, filling as it will a
