TAXES TAKE MORE THAN HALF

About year ago a wealthy citizen
of the State of New York passed away,
leaving an estate of S76.838,530. This
seems like a nice sum to leave to ones
heirs but before the estate could pass along
the governments of the citizen came in to
take out what are called inheritance
taxes.
The State of New York levied a toll
of S10,90O,00O and the Federal govern
ment got S30,372,10 The combined
taxes amounted to more than half of the
fortune.

their elders. It is only human to test life out, once the bans have been lifted.
 The greatest contributing cause for quarreling is the clash of wills. When Johnny and Suzy see more of other youngsters, and contacts are multiplied, naturally the oppor- tunity for setting up will come with it.
 A group of two or three children will play peaceably enough, as a rule. That is, if they are congenial in temperament. Age is not al- ways the criterion for amity, as taste differs in children of all ages.
 The larger crowd is bound to have more clashes than the small one. So, mother, if you are dis dressed about the daily fussing, 1t might be advisable to reduce the size of the cookie squad"
 If there are a good many chil- dren about, and the community makes it next to impossible to break the play groups into smaller units, then it is good plan for mothers to get together. talk over the problem of authority, and SO on. It would mean that any mother of the group could tell the small visitor on her porch or grounds what to do without her friends taking offense.
 One must never punish child belonging to 8 neighbor. But an understanding would help each mother to keep peace. and order and give her the privilege of sending some trouble-maker home at once.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

 One of the press bureaus had . story recently telling how eye spe- cialisfs had found that eye strain was greatly relieved and vision and general health much improved, by taking three carotene capsules ; day. Will you please give your opin- ion of this. (C. H. IT.
 Answer - Carotene Git is not one substance, but perhaps at least three) Is merely pro-vitamin A. That is, it must be metabolized in the animal economy into natural vitamin-And more or less of 1t IS not assimiliated when taken in the form of carotene or when the green and yellow foods richest in caro- tene) are depended on for vitamin A. Instead of carotene, why not take capsules of natural vitamin A each capsule contains 25,000 in- ternational units of natural vita- min A, concentrated from fish liver oils. It can do no harm in any case to try taking three or four such capsules daily for month. Tn fact this seems to bring marked relief to night-blindness or to undue sensi- tivity to the glare of approaching head lamps in night driving.

PINWoRMs Ar SCHOOL

A zoologist and a nernatologist or specialist on class of worms which includes Ascaris Ground worrn), oxyuris, tpinworm), Tri-
 china and Filaria (Guinea worrn)
 carefully examined groups of chill dren in private nursery schools in Washington, D. C., and reported the prevalence of pinworrn infestation among these children of well-to-do families in Public Health reports last April.
 Of 106 children examined in 1897 and 1898, 58 were found harboring | pinworms.
 Most of these children were from two to five years old. Of the cl1il- dren two to three years old, 4S per cent had pinworms; of the children
 four to five years old 63 had pin worms.
 Where consistent effort was
 made in such a school to keep the l pinworm-infested children from contact with the others, 1t seemed that the children were much less likely to become infested. Tn addition to the children, 34 persons associated with them as teachers, nurses and the like, were examined, and of these persons
 were found harboring pinworms
 Three of these persons were moth- CTS of infested children; one was an older brother; one was a maid
 in the home of pupils who were
 infested.
 The ubiquitous pinworm is med-
 ically known as Oxyuris vermicu- laris or Enterobius vermicularis - the latter a recent change and in-
 cidentally medical science" is
 making itself ridiculous with the annual changes in style or fancy
 ifs naming things. More familiar names for pinworms are seat worm and thread worm.
 Thread worm describes Oxyuris well. The worm resembles a bit of common white thread one-third of
 an inch or less in length. Their
 eggs, visible only with microscope,
 are readily carried to the nose or
 mouth by unclean fingers; or may contaminate the ground, floor or
 sand-pile where an infested child
 plays and be conveyed thence to
 other children; or may be carried
 by flies and be deposited on fruit,
 vegetables or other food. The eggs
 hatch in several days in the ali- mentary tract.
 Occasionally large numbers ot
 thread worms are found in the in-
 famed appendix at operation Whether the invasion of the lumen
 of the appendix by the worms is
 a contributing cause of. the in-
 fiammation or merely an incidental
 result of appendicitis is debatable
 I favor the latter view.
 Presence of thread worms may
 cause considerable discomfort in
 the way of itching and irritation
 Rarely does it cause more serious trouble.
