paddock the POOrhOuse''

American liberals, who have said some unkind
things about CALIFORNIA; callous treatment Mooney
and Billings, must doff their hats to the Golden
state for its pioneering social code written under
former Governor Hiram johnson and for its loyalty
to the Johnson tradition since.
None of the modern statutes written by California
has been more successful than its old age security law
This law, substituting pensions for the old aims
house method, has operated two years. A survey,
based QUESTIONABLE sent to officials of the states
fftyeight countless reveals that the law saves the
taxpayers $25992 year for each aged INDECENT.
Since this law was passed, 500 inmates of poor
houses have been able to leave these makeshift
shelters and resume natural lives Approximately
4100 have escaped entering poorhouses
While the p9nsion averages only $23 month, the
average cost of maintaining patients in amshouses
is $4474 a month
Thus, besides saving many heartbreak California
is saving money
CALIFORNIA; experience is duplicated in New York
and other pension states. 1t could become general
if the DConnery bill, granting federal aid for old
age pensions, we're passed
Since this is in reality an economy measure the
D-Connery bill should be passed in behalf of both
the aged poor and the nations taxpayers
Senator Capper, fighting also for a pension law
for the District of Columbia has raised the slogan
paddock the poornouse." This should become a
national demand.

The House Tax Bill

Passage of the billion-dollar revenue bill by the
house should silence the propagandsts who still
trying to brighten the country with the cry of an UNI
balanced budget The house bill balances the federal
operating budget. There never was any real danger
that the house would fail to do this.
To be sure the house bill is not yet law 1t must 60
through the senate, then back to the house, and
finally through conference The final law doubtless
will be somewhat different
But there is reason to believe that 1t will leave
operating deficit, that it will depart materially
from the general principles of traditional American
taxation to which the house bill adheres.
Two events in the house late Friday, however in
dictate that the forces fighting for general sales tax
and against a high income and estate tax are de-
termined to keep the country in nervous state
revenue uncertainties as long as possible
Republicans tried to reopen the bitter sales tax
battle despite their decisive defeat of week ago.
Those who attempted to revive this dead issue showed
that they do not care how much they rock
the boat of public confidence. or how much they
jeopardize balanced budget If they only tax the
poor mans necessities.
Secretary of Treasury Mills played into the hands
Of the unsuccessful weckers At the last minute he
informed the house that the sales tax substitutes would
not raise the desired revenue, which might have had
the effect of stampeding the house back to the sales
tax.
In other words, Mills lowered the estimates sales
tax alternatives which he himself had given the house
and which the house had used in its sincere desire
to balance the budget.
To complete the confusion, Mills added that there
was no chance of achieving the federal economies to
which the house was pledgng itself.
The administration, in the person of Mills, thus
put itself at the decisive moment the position of
obstructing an increase in revenues and cut in
penditures the essentials of balanced budget
In the circumstances the public is apt to believe

Some Other Uses

COUGAR has been used as an
~ ingredient of compounds for
removing boiler scale" the two
scientists continue. More than
thirty patents had been issued up
until 1912 for the inclusion of su-
crosse in explosives in amounts from
6 to 10 per cent
Sugar finds frequent use as a
filler, appearing in dyes, tanning
materials and leather. Printers
rolls and hectograph pads have been
made with glue and sugar.
Sugar frequently is used in phar-
maceutical preparations such as in
compromising of pills and as sac
charates of various metals.
Because of its antiseptic prop

crosse has been used in treatment
of wounds.
THE chemical properties Of SUI
crosse have been used in removing
calcium hydroxide from hides after
they have been dehaired, utilizing
the formation of soluble calcium
monOsaccharate.
Similarly, calcium may be re-
moved from certain calcined min
erals. Invert sugar has been used
in the silvering of mirrors.
Powell has proposed to treat
wood by impregnation with sugar
solutions. He claims his process
prevents shrinkage and season
checking, and protects against the
attacks of termiteS.
"Rice advocates the same usage
and makes extensive claims for the
value of his treated woods"

Sometimes warts disappear after
irritation with the ultraviolet or
with the x-ray, which also may
change the chemical reactions in
the human body.
Various drugs have been applied,
which sometimes actually do de-
stroy the wart and on other occa-
sions change the condition of the
blood.
The mere fact that warts disap-
pear spontaneously causes some
doubt as to the use of any method
of treatment, since it never is pos
sible to say whether the warts
would have disappeared without the
treatment.
1t is known that actual surgical
removal of the wart or its destruc-
ton by appropriate agents does get
rid of the wart every time.
Other methods quite frequently
fail.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE
Ridiculous Cures Used for Warts

wart be rubbed with a piece of
green, uncooked pork until the skin
around the wart becomes red, then
burying the pork.
Another involves tying a thread
about the wart until the thread cuts
into the wart, then burying the
thread.
In this country several Indian
methods involve massaging the
wart vigorously during lightning,
making plea to the new moon, ap-
plying the blood of a hedgehog, and
invoking special gods who are sup
posed to be associated with warts.
Of course, these magic cures"
are ridiculous.
DR.. zwick believes that the spon-
taneous disappearance of the warts
must be due to some chemical
change in the body which makes
the body an unfavorable soil for the
cauSative virus or organism respon-
Sible for the Wart.

FRENCH MAKE GAINS
ApriI 2

NN April 2, 1918, French and
" British troops operating on the
Picardy battlefront made further
minor gains and succeeded in stop
ping continued German attacks,
which lacked the force of those
which characterized the early days
of the offensive.
French troops stormed German
positions near La Fere and held
them throughout the day.
Paris newspapers announced that
the great German offensive had
been stopped and the French cele-
brated as if a great victory had
been won.
The Italian steamer Alessandra
was torpedoed and sunk by a Ger
man submarine of the Island of
Madeira.
American troops, in reserve be-
hind the British section of the west
ern front, now numbered more than
100000 men. Those engaged on the
front or in reserve on the French
section numbered approximately
zoe, 900.
OF this force, seven divisions, or
nearly 100000 men, were considered
ready for front line duty.

Just Every Day Sense
VERY soon after the Lindbergh baby had been
By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

XTERY soon after the Lindbergh baby had been
stolen, there appeared in a number of newspa-
pers picture which showed row of orphan children
kneeng in prayer for the safe return of little Charles
The small son in house saw this picture. 1t
impressed him very much With his thoughts cropping
among the impenetrable mysteries of a grown-up
world where baby could be stolen from his safe bed
and loving parents he felt confident that God would
hear the voices of the orphans.
Then he went to Sunday school, where he joined
in other prayers asking the same divine favor
Now what is mother to do when she faces such
situation? If the Lindbergh baby is brought home,
all will be well. The boys faith in Heaven will be
justified If the baby is not restored, what kind of
reaction will to innumerable children?
With the best intentions in the world, we COM
NIT many crimes against the child in the name of
religion. Such examples as this. however, should
prove that we do not do enough intelligent bordering
on whether We building up or destroying faith.
TROWN-UPS after many tribuiations, realize that
VI good many of their prayers never are answered.
We comfort ourselves by saying that God knows best
But each time we leave the infant to plead for
something he may not receive, We confuse his
thinking, SOW dark needs of dstrust in his nature,
and the very sensitive we may plunge into oceans
of misery
Read once more "The Story of an African Farm,
if you have forgotten the tragic grief that
to the imaginative trusting child who finds his faith
shattered. There is finer example Of the harm
good people can do in their attempts to explain the
unexplainable.
1t seems to me that organized religions should
think long before it announces universal prayers for
any cause Failure to obtain the things desired may
be disastrous to the faith Of thousands.

Cost Is Small

THE two scientists reported that
u use of sugar in laying bricks or
plastering a wall does not increase
materially the cost Of the work.
The process, they said, is simple.
The sugar merely is dissolved in
water, which then is mixed with
the sand and lime. They said it
was necessary to use about five or
six pounds of sugar to every 100
pounds of lime.
The work at the Mellon institute
has been carried out by the sugar
fellowship" established by the sugar
institute.
The fellowship has a twofold pur-
pose, to carry on biochemicaI in
vestigations concerning the place
OF sugar in the diet and to study
possibilities of the use of sugar as
raw material in industry.
Drs. Cox and Metschl have been
working upon the second phase of
the work, namely the industrial use
of sugar.
They report that a search of
available literature shows little use
of sugar in industry. A prize Of
fered in 1906 by a syndicate of
French ref1ners and amounting to
100000 francs for any one develop
ing an industrial use of sugar which
would total 100000 tons has not
been claimed.
"Vivien in 1912 reviewed the uses
OF sugar exhaustively," they say.
"Rolfe has given summary of vi
vien's paper. OF the uses described
by these authors, probably the in
clusion Of sugar in transparent
soaps accounts for the greatest ton
