Hereditary Hav Fever.

DR.. w. Seheppegrell, president Of
the American Hay Fever Prevention
association, has recently made an an
alysis Of 415 cases treated in the hay
fever clinic of the Charity hospital at
New Orleans and elsewhere In that
city In order to determine the infiu-
ence Of heredity on this disease He
finds that in more than one-third Of
the cases the patients had a father,
mother, brother or sister who was a
victim of the disease. Probably the
influence Of heredity is even greater
than indicated by these figures, as spe-
cific susceptibility may exist indefi-
nitely without developing hay fever, by
reason of insufficient exposure to the
pollens that cause the malady. The
question Of the development Of nat
ural immunity from continued expos
ure to the specific pollens is, says Doc
tor Scheppegrell, difficult one to set
tie, on account of the difficulty of elm
mating the question of decreased ex-
posure.-Scientific American

THEIR POWER IS GREAT
Accomplishments of Small Saw
ings Is Remarkable.
Ninth District War Loan Organization
Shows Some Astounding
Examples.

what is the power of small saw
ings?"
Wrestling with the problem Of how
best to impress upon the people of
the Ninth Federal Reserve district the
surprising importance of saving of
every degree, great, small and me-
dunn, the central committee of the
Ninth District War Loan organization
has happened on an astounding case
of what small savings can do.
This is, according to A. R. Rogers,
central committee chairman, that if
every one Of the 110,OOO,OOO citizens Of
the United States should buy just one
Thrift stamp day for little more
than two years they would have
amassed saving equal to the entire
national debt of the United States on
January l, 1919, or $21, 100000.
That means that the American peo-
pie, saving 25 cents a day for 25
months, or to be exact, 764 days, would
have saved sum equal to that spent
for the following great undertakings:
The American army which turned
the tide of victory in the world war
on the fields of France
Additions to the navy since April,
1917, and all the costs of maintain
ing the navy and paying it's men for
81 months
The merchant marine of the United
States SO far as it had been completed
to January l.
The Panama Canal.
A number of great dams and irriga.
ton projects.
Scores of great army camp 8
throughout the United States.
Payment to Spain for the Philip.
pine Islands, etc.
Scores of items connected with the
great war which could not possibly be
tabulated
Actually the savings would be a
third greater than the sum spent for
