Army Treatment

The surgeon generals office has
taken great pride in this hospital and
has been most energetic in the en-

notch Of efficiency. The success
achieved has amply demonstrated
what can be done by skill and devo-

Lyster, regular army man of more
than twenty years service. He had
held very responsible posts in England
and France and had been decorated by
King George with the Order Of st. Mi

war he was Known to army men as
the inventor of the Lyster water bag

Many difficulties in the way of pro,
viding an ideal treatment for the tu-
berculous We're encountered at first
One Of the most apparent was the

ration. The war department allowed
hut GA cents, an amount experts say
is totally Inadequate to provide the
proper kind and quality of food re-
quired by tuberculous patients. 1t is
to be rememb ,red, of course. tlat
proper feeding is one of the mainstays
of treatment in this disease.

The tornado. the other hand, is a tunnel

But Kansas calls them cyclones. So cyclones

1.-THE result has been that the expression Kansas
cyclone has become almost an 'idiom of the Ian
guage and the reputation of the state for vista

other part of the country when, as matter OF
fact, there is TO believe in the light OF

part of the country"
Anyway, Kansas became "the cyclone state
and the thing eventually became such scandal
that soon after the Civil Uncle Sam decided
to investigate and sent out army officer to trail
the cyclone to it's lair The report of this investi
gator is still among the dusty archives of the
United States weather bureau 1t contains facts
both of scientific and popular interest.
For example he tells about the woman who lost
her hair. He says she woman with excep-
tionally long hair; that the storm cut or tore
most of this hair from her head, twisted it into
rope and left it lying her, while the hair left
upon her head was tightly curled into many little
wsps filled with sand.
1t was the same cyclone, accorulng TO this Off
cial report, that bore down upon a large house

tree And this was not merely on one side of the
trunk but around its entire circumference. Iii
another place he found trees still standing, but
stripped of every particle Of their bark
So YOU see for beginner, this official investi-
gator did pretty well.
OF course the weather bureau has accumulated
a mass of Cyclone literature" Here's an inter-

a great commotion In threatening cloud. or, more
commonly, two clouds come together. From this
whrling mass the characteristic cloud descends
until, in the case Of damaging storms, 1t touches

of straws being blown with such violence that they
are left sticking in the bark and the wood Of

feathers and left alive though more often they
killed.

The Rev Mr.. Tate, OF Mason City
began a series of revival meetings in
the Christian church here Tuesday

Homer Burgess, living just east OF
Eldora, exhibited several ears of re-
markable corn, grown on his farm
this season. The corn is OF the yell
low variety and the ears contained
twenty-six rows around, filled SC
completely at either end that not an
other kernal found room on the cob
Each ear contained something over

by III. S.Cumming, surgeon general OF
the United States, to issue an appeal
to the public to cease to buy and TO
use horse-hair. brushes COR shaving.
DR.. Sumner has received the fol
lowing letter from Surgeon Genera
Cuknming:
THE bureau has made every pos
sible effort under existing laws and
regulations to prevent tn eSceurrence
of anthrax due to infected shaving
brushes. In spite of it's efforts an
thrax cases occur and will continue
to occur unless the public cease to
buy and use horse-hair brushes for
shaving.
"It is the concensus of expert
opinion that shaving-brush anthrax
is only contracted when the shaving
brush is made of horse hair. and
congress at the next session Will be
asked to prohibit the use of horse
hair in shaving brushes. In regard to
the horse-hair shaving brushes
which are now in trade channels and
some Of which are presumably infec-
ted, it is doubtful if any effective
measure can be taken by he2lth OF
ficials except direct appeal TO the
public not to buy or use horse-hair
shaving brushes.
you are strongly urged to issue IN
your state such an appeal, giving u
the widest publicity, as the only
remedy to obviate the potential dan
ger from these brushes pending ad-
ditional legislation"

A remarkable process perfected by

there need no longer be any trouble.
Children need never know they are
