Be Better to Thin Out to

Why cut down all trees along the

quenching the thirst, they reduce the
temperature of the fever patient.
They also may serve as a form In
which nourishment may be given when
solid food cannot be taken. Other
drinks relieve nausea, stimulate the
heart, excite the gastric juices, con-
troll the bowels and prove soothing to
cOngested state of the alimentary
canal. All drinks should be subject to
the advice Of the attending physician,
for even harmless grape juice may be
fatal In cases recovering from typhoid.
Like everything else prepared for
the invalid's table all beverages
should be made and served with all
possible daintiness. A smeary, thick
glass of lukewarm lemonade or other
drink which should be cold would nau-
seate a person who was not Ill. A
pretty shaped tumbler or sherbet cup
standing on pretty plate protected
by a dainty dolly will appeal to the
eye before It's delicious GOODNESS Is
tasted.
When beverages are carried to the
sick room they should always be COW
cred and never left uncovered In the
sick room.
Very hot beverages stimulate the
digestive fluids, while very cold ones
retard but lower the temperature In
fever.
Various other fruits and fruit Juices
may be used with orange or lemon or
alone, such as pineapple, currant, ber-
ries and grapes. Most fruit juices are
more acceptable when chilled, either
near the Ice or having Clipped ice
added. Orange Juice alone, strained
and served well chilled, is an agree
able and mildly laxative drink very
popular with most people. 1t is given
tablespoonful between feelings to
young babies with very good results.

CLEANSED FROM

Thousands of Russian Pilgrims
Battle in the River at
EaStertide.

Jews are not the only people who
regard the Holy city as their Mecca.
Every year a little before Easter a
long line of Russian pilgrims may be
seen tramping their way from Jaffa,
where they left their steamer, bound
for Jerusalem. During Holy week the
city Is filled to overlooking with these
peasants who participate In the yari-
GUS ceremonies, afterward travelling
to the River Jordan to battle In Its
cleansing waters In the firm belief
that they will be washed of their sins.
1t Is curious sight to watch these
pilgrims from the time they leave the
boat at Jalfa until they finally reach
the Holy city. Young men and women,
old men and women have boarded

Revenue and Taxation Bills Ap-
proved.

Governor Davis affixed his sigma
ture late Saturday to house bill No.
319, the final piece OF work by the
appropriations committee of the
Sixteenth legislature, levying and
advalorem tax of approximately 81
mills on all the taxable property of
the state, to provide $1,800,O00 for
state purposes in each year in the
biennium of 1921-1922.
He also signed house bill No. 313,
which levies direct tax of nine
tenths mills, to provide a revenue
estimated at $89S,645 for the over
head, maintenance and other ex-
penses of the state bureau Of high
ways during the same period.
These two measures, in connee-
ton with house bill No. 316 au-
thorizing the issue of treasury notes
to anticipate the receipt of moneys
from the highway tax, and house
bill No. 254 providing for $1,000
600 worth of treasury notes to sup
ply cash for the state treasury while
receipt of general tax money is
pending, pave the way for the i'm
mediate steps necessary in financing
the states largest operations.
