U. S. FACTS AS TO CONSUMPTION

In the United States one death in every ten is due to tuberculosis. One
 death in every 8 of insured wage
 earners is due to tuberculosis; 132, 900 persons of all ages died in the United States of tuberculosis last year-the equivalent of one of our army divis- ions at war strength; 12,000 of these
 victims of tuberculosis were children under l 5 years of age.
 One million persons have tubercu- 1osis in active form, out of a total population of 105, 100000.
 every four minutes, 14 every hour, 36O every day. It should be borne in
 mind that all the figures on this
 sheet apply only to the United States. Most of the victims of tuberculosis
 are stricken in the prime of life. More than one-quarter of all who die between>the ages of 5 and 45 years
 are killed by tuberculosis. This is a needless sacrifice, because tubercuto- sis is preventable and incurable. Approximately 70. 900 American SOL
 dters died of all causes in the World War. Tuberculosis killed 150,000 men, women and children in the
 same period.
 Tuberculolis always fights from l ambush. IL is not spectacular war rior. Yellow fever has killed in the United States fewer people in over
 120 years than tuberculosis kills in a

 My mother who is suffering from the diabetes sickness is, of course, on a diet.
 Could you please tell me fur f1er what to do? She is sick and wasted and getting thinner with her stomach trouble. Also if there is any such thing as testing the urine at home Somebody told her there is a certain machinery to be bought, but I've en- qu.red at drug stores and they haven't any thing of the sort.
 Answer-Your mother should be under the constant care of a good doctor. He should make the test. However, I give you this informa- tion: Get of the druggist a TWO ounce bottle of Feh1ing's Solution (miSed.) Then boil over an alcoh ol lamp in a test tube about a tea spoonful of the solution.

Beauty Chats
FINGER-NAII BLEMIsHEs.
By EDNA KENT FORBES

BIElhlShES.
 A great many women feel that the little white moon shaped marks at the base of the nails are blemishes that should be removed. Most nails have this but not all. I wish that those who do possess these marks would get over the idea that they are blemishes. First of all nothing can De done to eliminate them and sec ond1y they are rather attra
 A great many nails are subject to curious little white spots. These ap- pear, grow as the nail grows and finally are filed off. There is always causes these tiny marks. One beau ty specialist said it is the result of a stoppage in flow of nutrient juices Others say it is poor circulation, and still others, that it is too much lime in the blood or else that the marks come from bruises. Personally, don't think that even a great number of these are in any sense a disfgure- ment. If the nails are well cared for and well shaped, such marks are too tiny to bother about. If you really feel badly about them, make little paste out of turpentine and nnyrrh and spread this over the nails at night. Remove it In the morning by rubbing with little olive oil.
 The worst disagreement that a nail can have is series of ridges. These with wet punice stone, afterwards polishing smooth with a buffer and rubbing with cream So the nail will not be too dry. A bruise will make a nail ugly, sometimes will badly dis figure 1t. If you have bruised the nail hold your finger in water as hot as you can stand it for half an hour This will usually prevent the blood from settling under it and turning 1t black and blue.
 1nquiAtve:-A girl IT, 5 feet 1 inch should weigh 115 pounds. This is ac- cordtng to the insurance company's table of weights. You can weigh at least five pounds less and be healthy.
 Babe:-If you have reached the height of feet inches and are 16 years old it is probable that you have reached your full height. do not know of any way to stop growing.
 Anxious M.:-If you do not like olive oil, you can increase your weight by drinking milk, to each glass of which two heaping tablespoons of matted milk have been added.
