Romomber tho "doso" mother Insisted on castor oil, calomol, cathartics. How you hated thorn, how you fought against taking them. With our children It's different. Mothers who cling to tho old form of physic simply don't reallzo what thoy do. Tho children's revolt Is well-founded. Their tender llttlo "Insldes" aro Injured by thorn. If your child's stomach, liver and bowols need cleansing, glvo only deli cious "California Syrup of Figs." I(,s action is positive, but gontlo. Millions of mothers keep this harmless "fruit laxatlvo" handy; they know children lovo to take It; that It nover falls to clean tho liver and bowols and sweet en the stomach, and that a toaspoonful 'given today saves a sick child tomor row.

Disease May Be Contracted by Eating the Flesh of Hogs, In Any Form, Not Thoroughly Cooked Timely Hints. Washington, D. C. Thoro is always tho possibility that Illness may follow tho eating of pork that is raw or not thoroughly cooked. Tho danger Is greatest at this season of tho year when many peoplo proparo for homo consumption various food products that aro customarily eaten without cooking. More of thoso homomado products aro prepared at hog-kllling tlmo on tho farm than at any othor time. American peoplo as a rulo prefer cooked pork, but there aro many who, perhaps unknowingly, consume pork in an uncooked condition, either in tho form of raw ham or uncooked sau sages. In many localities consider able amounts of thoso products aro mado up and consumed fit home, or distributed throughout tho neighbor hood. Largo quantities of pork prod ucts mionueu io uu uaiun raw aro uiuo propared commercially. The dlscaso known ns trichinosis, which may result from eating raw pork, Is caused by certain round worms, called' trichinae Theso aro microscopic In size and infest tho flesh of hogs. Tho prevalence of trlchlnao in hogs Is Indicated by tho fact that during nine years, 1898-190G, when tho carcasses of hogs, wero inspected mi croscopically by federal inspectors, of 8,000,000 carcasses so Inspected, 1.41 per cont contained living trlchlnao and 1.16 per cent contained trichina like bodies or disintegrating trlch nae. In other words and in round numbers, trlchlnao wero prosont in 1 out of 71 hogs, and if tho presence of dead trlchlnao and trichlnallko bodios is included, in 1 out of every 30 hogs. Unlike many other Infectious dis eases, tho severity of an attack of trichinosis depends upon tho numbor of parasltos swallowed. Largo quan tities of slightly infested pork must bo eaten in order to produco appre ciable offects. If severo illness fol lows the eating of a small amount of tho meat, tho pork must havo boon honvlly infested. To avoid trichinosis, no form of pork in tho raw state, including dried or smoked sausages and hams, should bo eaten. All pork used as food should be cooked thoroughly. If this is dono the valuo or wholesomenoss of tho meat for food purposes Is not im paired by tho fact that tho parasltos wero present in it. According to specialists of tho do partraent, trlchlnao dlo when sub jected to a temporaturo of about 140 degroos F. All products containing pork which aro prepared to bo sold as cooked products In establishments op orating under federal meat inspection aro required to ho cooked sufficiently to lnsuro a temperaturo high enough to destroy trlchlnao throughout all portions of tho meat. Likewise, in order to protect consumers who aro careless or ignorant of tho danger of raw pork products of kinds propared customarily to bo eaten without cook ing, such ns certain kinds of hams, and summer sausages, must bo manu factured in accordanco with methods which, it has been determined, destroy the vitality of any trlchlnao which may bo present In tho pork. It has boon found by investigations in the bureau of animal industry that it pork is subjected to a temporaturo not J higher than 5 degrees F. for 20 days, , the vitality of all trlchlnao is do j stroyed. This is ono method of safo i guarding pork products that aro to bo i eaten without cooking. Othor methods followed In establishments operating undor federal meat Inspection consist in curing and drying tho products ac cording to certain rulos which the manufacturers aro required to follow. Although products that aro special ly propared for eating uncooked nnd bear tho mark of fedoral inspection, may bo used with safoty, tho custom PUT $5 IN COLLECTION BOX Akron Police Now Question 8nnlty of Generous Contributor and De mand an Investigation.

It can not bo dotermlncd with cor tninty by inspection whether pork Is freo from txichlnao, and tho fedoral meat inspection mark docs not guar antoo tho fitness of pork for food if It Is eaten raw. A practical rulo for cooking pork is to cook it until it has lost Its red color throughout all portions, or if a traco of this color Is still present, at least until tho fluids of tho moat havo. becomo moro or less Jollied.

Washington, D. C. Tho nlnrmlng charnctor or tho whlto plno blister rust and tho economic loss which It threatens in tho northeastern and western United States aro sharply om phaslzod by four recent sorlous out breaks on plno treos and currant bushes In Massachusetts and Now York, says tho United States dopart mont of agriculture This dlscaso was introduced on imported whlto plno nursory stock nnd first nppoarod at Geneva, N.

In 19Q9 oxtonslvo Importations of diseased whlto plno nursory Btock woro located and destroyed In Now York and other eastern stntos, and warnings wero issued broadcast against further importation of whlto plno from Europo. In splto of thoso warnings importation continued oven from tho particular nursory In Oor mauy which was doilnltoly known to ho tho main sourco of dlsonso, until Anally In 1012 nil such lmpoitntlon was stopped by federal action. Tho whlto plno bliBtor rust affects tho ojistorn whlto plno, tho westorn whlto plno, tho sugar plno and Indood all of tho so-called flvo-leaf pines, pro ducing cankers on tho stems and branches, killing young trees und maiming and dlsllgurlng old ones. It also producos a loaf dlscaso of cur rant nnd goosoborry bushes. Tho fun gus causing tho dlscaso must llvo for a part of its lifo on plno trees and part of its lifo on currants and gooso borrlos. Tho dlscaso cannot spread from ono plno troo to another, but must pass first to currant bushes and thon back to plno. In Europo tho dlscaso has mado tho culture of American whlto pino im practlcablo in England, Donmark and Holland, and has sorlously handi capped its cultivation in Germany. Since tho treos which it attacks in clude thoso of tho most important timbor trees of tho United States, tho loss which this dlscaso will produco if unchecked is vory great. Fortu nately tho disease is not now known to bo present west of Buffalo, N.

Tho dlsoaso now occurs in three lo calities in Now Hampshire, two in Vormont, ten in Mnssnchusotts, two In Connecticut, flvo in Now York, one In Pennsylvania and threo in Ontario, Canada. Tho dlsoaso could bo controlled now by tho destruction of tho diseased whlto pines or tho complete destruc tion of all currant nnd goosoborry buBhoo in tho vicinity of infected plno treos. Whothor or not this slmplo ac tion can bo accomplished depends up on tho logal authority possessed by tho various stato horticultural inspec tors concornod.
