crease Of such infestation that two
state health commissioners have
devoted especial attention TO warn
ings. Burns may have waxed
poetlcal about a louise, but | will
stick. TO the stark realities.
Three species Of lice inlest man
the head louise, the body louise,
and-the pubic, or crab, louise. They
are quite distinct in appearance
and habits, each one sticking
pretty closely to his own geo.
graphic territory. All are wing
less. all lay eggs on the hair or
clothing. These eggs are attached
20 the hair by very firm glue
that can be dissolved only in kero-
sene, vinegar or ether. or similar
solvents. Sixteen days are re-
quired for complete development
from egg 10 adult.
Our soldiers are undoubtedly suf-
fcring more from infestation than
the civilian population. And it is
serious question for the sanitary
corps. Many diseases are carried
by lice. The terrific epidemic of
typhus fever which devastated
Europe, especially the Balkan
States after the last war is an
example. They may cause severe
scalp infections from scratch
marks.
Head Infestation
The heed louise is a short, dark
insect, and may change 10 protec-
tive coloring matching its host.
The brown oval eggs are deposited
on the hair half an inch from the
roots. Each female can la" arousd
800 eggs in the so days Of her
adult life.
School children are especially
liable to having head lice-girs
more than boys, because of longer
hair. The lice stay in caps and
hats and when exchanges take
place, or in hat racks, go from
one to the other. Crowding in
school rooms also spreads them.
Tredtment-Wash the head and
hair thoroughly with a mixture
Of equal parts Of sweet oil, kero-
sene and vinegar. Stay away from
open flames. Wrap the head in a
towel after the mixture is on for
several hours and then comb out
thoroughly with a fine-tooth comb
10 remove the dead lice and eggs
(nits). Then wash head and hair
thoroughly with soap and water.
Repeat on two or three successive
nights. Inspect all other members
of the family.
Body lice live in the clothing
and stay attached to the clothing
not the body. Their favorite
habitat is in seams and around the
collar and waist. They migrate at
night from one pile Of clothing to
another. They can be introduced
into a home by the laundry or by
transfer from one person TO an
other in street cars, buses, hotels
and sleeping cars.
Treatment For Clothing
To get rid Of them the clothing
only need be treated. The clothes
should be boiled or put in an auto
clsve. Pressing or steaming with
a hot iron, or treatment with gas
oline. turpentine or benzlne will
get rid OF them, but these methods
are not as reliable as the auto
clave. Most insect powders do not
harm them: but sulphur powder
is most likely to.
Pubic, or crab, lice affect the
pubic region and sometimes stray
TO the armpits even the beard.
lnfectilN comes from contact in
lodging houses, hotels, strange
beds, toilet seats aad bathtubs.
Treatment is by mercury ONT

|Lesson-Serrnon
Heard On Love

"Love'' was the subject of the
Lesson-Sermon in all Christian Sci
ence churches and societies.
The Golden Text was from Jere-
miah 1924. ''Let him that glorieth
glory in this, that he understand
eth and knoweth me, that am the
Lord which exercise loving kind
ness, judgment, and righteousness
in the earth: for in these things I
delight, saith the Lord"
Among the citations which COM
prised the Lesson-Sermon were
the following from the Bible:
'Bless the Lord, o my soul, and
forget not all his benefits: Who
forgiveth all thine iniquities; who
healeth all thy diseases; who re-
deemeth thy life from destruction;
who crowneth thee with loving
kindness and tender mercies. Like
as father pitieth his children,
SO the Lord pitieth them that fear
him. psalm 1903: "a, 49,.
The Lesson-Sermon also includ-
ed the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, E'Sci-
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy:
ASK yourself: Am I living the
life that approaches the supreme
good? Am I demonstrating the
healing power of Truth and Love?
If SO, then the way will grow
brighter unto the perfect day.
Your fruits will prove what the
understanding of God brings to
man. Hold perpetually this thought
that it is the spiritual idea, the
Holy Ghost and Christ, which en-
ables you to demonstrate with sci
entific certainty, the rule OF heal
ing, based upon its divine Princi-
pie, Love, underlying, everything,
and encompassing all true being

INTEREST RATES
CONTINUE Low
Bv ROGER BABsON

BABsoN PARK, Mass, July
30-While the war continues and
cash piles up, interest rates will
continue low. For all practical pur-
poses, bond flotations consist al
most wholly of Governments and
refunding issues. There is no ne
cessity for Mr.. Morgenthau n W
Offering more of a return from the
Use of funds for government pur-
Loses. Lack Of competition in the
bend market makes higher inter-
art rates for government money
unnecessary.
However, when the War is over
and industry again seeks funds,
the situation will change. The Law
Of Supply and Demand will then

It'll a decline in bond prices.
Fence, there is little reason for
large investors now to reach for
high grade bonds except for the
tax exempt group. Most investors
IRE better off in Governments
than they are in prime corporate
tonds. Therefore, there is little
point today in discussing high :
grade bonds. Let us look at GER
tair other issues.
There has been considerable in
s-rest in foreign issues for some
time past. Even Russian bonds of
he old Kerensky regime have had
4 large percentage rise. Any an
ncipation that Stain will ultimately
recognize these bonds is extremely
remote. Bonds of Nazi occupied
countries, such as Czechoslovakia
End Denmark, may continue their
present show OF strength as Ger
any's defeat draws nearer. Be-
cause of the almost constant poll
teal upsets, characteristic Of the
Latin American countries, South
American bonds have never ap-
pealed to me. There are far bet
ter opportunities in our own do
nestle securities than in foreign
governments or industrials.
With continued heavy calling Of

top-gcade corporate bonds, the
dwindling supply of these issues,
plus their low yields, resulted some
two years ago in attention being
hocussed upon medium grade
i: dustrial, utility and rail bonds.
All of these groups have had SUBJ
stantial rises since the middle of
1912 but the prices of many me-
dunn grade industrials are now
flattening out. This is also true
OF medium grade rail bonds,
while medium grade utilities

ward in the past two months.
OF all the medium grade groups
perhaps the utilities offer the best
opportunity at the moment. Entire
ly aside from the cleaning up of
the balance sheets of many utility
companies, it must be remember
I'd that we are in an Election Year.
If the War ends prior to Novem-
Der and the Dewey Bricker ticket
has a resulting good chance of
being elected, then utility bonds,
let alone utility stocks, should en-
Joy great popularity. In fact, from
psychological point of view, util-
ity bonds may rise anyway.
Disregarding top grade rail
road bonds, second grade rail
issues may show further strength
insofar as well placed issues are
concerned. Unquestionably, the fl
Eancial position of most railroad
companies has been greatly i'm
proved. Manv short maturity is
suies have been bought in by the
railroad companies and interest
charges after the War may be
considerably less for many roads
than was true in pre- war days.
On the other hand. traffic is bound
to fall off and many second-grade
railbonds should sell for less than
at present.
Defaulted Rail Bonds
Since the earlier months of the
gear, defaulted rail bonds have not
shown the activity that was char
scteristic Of them in 1913. In fact,
for the past several months, they
have moved in distinct sidewise
direction. Some of these bonds are
now selling well under the esti-
mated work out values for the
rev bonds, preferred stock and
common stock that will be issued
upon the termination Of receiver
ships. The purchase of defaulted
rail. bonds always requires b o tn
study and courage. The profit
cream may be off such issues but
there may be considerable milk
still left in the defaulted railroad
bond bottle.
For all bonds, except possibly
for certain rail bonds, the long
term trend of bond prices is down

be gradual. Until the tax laws

spect to tax exempt issues. Low
