Epileptics Cured

Another disease which hith3 erto has been baffling to phy- icians seems in a fair way to De conquered. Drs. Helmholz md Haddow, of Rochester, Minn., have just made a report )f eight years of investigation and treatment of epilepsy with most encouraging results. The report covers the cases of Al patients treated, of which num- OCT 43 were cured, 32 were inn proved and 66 were not bene- fitted. The treatment consist ed of a special diet rich in fats, and was originally worked out by Dr. Russell M. Wilder, for merly of the Mayo clinic.

How Training Counts

An unusually striking illus tration of the value of training is afforded through a study of casualty records during the Great War. The central pow CTS mobilized 22,850,OOO men and inflicted casualties num- bering 22,090,6O0 upon the al- lied forces. The allies mobil- ized 42, 1894 men, yet in- flicted only 15,405,000 casual ties upon the armies of the central powers.
 In other words, in the case of the highly trained troops of the central powers an average of nearly one casualty was inflict- ed upon the allies for every man mobilized, while it took nearly three men of the allies to inflict one casualty upon the enemy.
 Allowances must be made for the long distances some of the allied troops had to be transported and the fact that good many never got to the front, still their greater losses were chiefly due to the time consumed in training, which gave the enemy, with we'll trained and equipped troops from the beginning, a tremen- dous advantage until over whelmed by sheer force of numbers.
 As with an army, so with an individual. The trained man has a great advantage in every walk of life.

problem by a shrewd merch- ant.
 When Capt. Roland H. Mac ey got tired of sailing the briny deep as a sea captain and start ed a store in New York, there were no cash registers or other means for checking up his clerks. Money received fo1 purchases was put in an old fashioned cash drawer which made no records, and the prac- tice of "knocking-down," a euphemism for plain stealing by clerks, was quite prevalent. Macy charged all prices to odd cent amounts, established cash iers to. make the required change, and kept a close watch on the cashiers. His advertise ments of these odd prices seemed to strike the public eye 'favorably, and he got a great response. What was at first on- ly an expedient to keep from being robbed developed into a potent psychological appeal to his customers. Thus the odd price has survived many years after the original reason for its adoption ceased to exist.
