KEEPS WATCH ON
SEAMEN'S HEALTH
Uncle Sam WHI Take Good Care
of His Merchant
Crews.
SEAMAN'S BOTTLE IS LATEST
Contains Passports to Good Health by
Providing Free Hospital Treat-
ment Anywhere Days of the
Dog's Life Now History.
Washington. Uncle Sam Is getting
more watchful of the health of his
merchant crews us the great Anierleun
peace-time tleet continues to grow.
The latest Innovation of the United
States shipping board In ihe"seuman'B
bottle," which has now becomo one of
tin cherished possessions of hundreds
of American seamen.
This little glass bottle, small enough
to be carried In the est pocket, con
tains passports to good health print
ed forms which, when tilled out by a
ship's captain, will gain admittance for
the holder to any United States mi."
nine hospital or relief .still Ion of thn
public health service in every impor
ta in port in the United States. On u
foreign voyage the application will pro
vide the seaman with the best niedltnl
care, free of charge, on application to
the United States consular otllcer.
At present the bottle Is being pro
vided only for men who have been
trained for a sea career by the recruit
ing service of the shipping board, but
in the oplulou of Surgeon General
151 tie every American seaman should
have one.
It Is in port that the new "seaman's
bottle," which was originated by Dr.
Louis W. Croke, medical director of
the shipping board recruiting service,
plays Its chief part. A seaman la need
of medical attention has merely to dig
the bottle out of his kit, bring the
printed form to his skipper to be filled
out und then go ashore to the nearest
federal olllclal.
Free Hospital Care.
The label which bears the imprint of
the board's recruiting service Informs
the seafarer that he is entitled to free
hospital care no matter what his sta
tion aboard ship. The term "seamen,"
it says, means not only the men who
are employed on deck but persons em
ployed on board In the care, preserva
tion or navlgatlot. of the ship, and it
even includes those who are In the
service, on board, of those engaged in
such care, preservation or navigation.
When discharged by the medical au
thorities the American seaman is
given free passage to the port from
which he originally signed, unless the
articles provide for discharge else
where, or If In a foreign port to some
port In the United States, lie must
serve on board the ship on which his
passage has been arranged If possible.
The "seaman's bottle" not only will
Impress upon Americans who are going
to sea the privileges to which they are

Airplane Manufacturers Make

Paris. Airplane manufacturers are
losing no time In developing long-distance
machines for transatlantic
flights for which tempting prizes have
been offered by vnrlous newbpnpers
and aviation clubs.
The rumors persist In Paris that a

to Ireland, but that the flight was
kept secret In order that the Germans
might not know that a machine had
been produced which could bomb Ber

the charity of Ills captain or ship

Paris. There reached Paris recent
ly a line-looking old French gentleman,
sad-eyed, hollow-cheeked. Por four
years he had been held prisoner by
the Germans In the city of Cambrai.
He had seen the Hun kaiser Uirec
times passing through the streets of
ills city which previously had been
swept by the French women. Night
after night he had been forced to go
nnd sit In the railroad stations of the
city while the British bombed them.
He had seen his friends, people once
wealthy and of high birth, sent out to
dig trenches, to bury the dead and to
cultivate and weed the fields. For two
years he had only soup and cocoa for
ids dinner and a semi-monthly allow
ance of three-quarters of a pound of
meat and black bread.
Henri Ucrgler reached Paris just as
the news came from the front thnt
British and American troops had freed
his home. As soon ns lie Is strong

Scurvy, that scourge of the old days,
has practically disappeared from the
American mercantile marine because
of the liberal supplies of lime or lemon
Juice, sugar and vinegar that are now
required to be carried on every ship
on a long vojage and to be given dally
to the crew within ten days after salt
provisions have been chlelly served to
them. In the days of yore "salt Junk"
was the main item on every foc'sle bill
of fare. This food, consigned to the
vessel In barrels, was generally stowed
below as ballast and sometimes re
mained there fot a long time before
being requisitioned for the crew. This
diet, with the lack of frush vegetables,
caused scurvy.
Adequate hospital facilities aboard
ship also are provided. The law re
quires that In addition to the space al
lotted for lodgings, which must be
roomy nnd well ventilated, all mer
chant vessels of the United States,
which ordinarily make voyages of
more 'than three days' duration be

least one comfortable bunl; for every

-
there to llnd, If possible, the priceless
records of the city which he hid In
1014 when the Huns swept ncross Bel
glum and Invaded northern France.
As n Judge of a tribunal or court
of Cambrai, Bergler refused to leave
his post when the Gorman hordes
poured through his country In August,
1914. By a trick of chance be hud
just sent his wife and three daughters
to Boulogne-sur-Mor, on the coast of
France, for a holiday and was plan
ning to Join them early In September.
The meeting was deferred just four
years. He was captured, but was
spared the bitterness of seeing his
family subjected to the humiliations
which came to the other women of
Cambrai. 111b wife and daughters at
once volunteered for hospital service
and worked so heroically for three
years that they were decorated by the
French government with tho mednl
"des ep!demlessct du devouement."
The story which Bergler brought
back was one of want and suffering.
The Germans held him ns hostage so
he was not maltreated. Whenever tho
city was bombed, however, ho was
sent with three other Judges, also held
as hostages, to sit In the railway sta
tions so that they would be killed If
the tralllc centers were destroyed.
The people of the city who did not
hold otllclal positions were treated
more ' summarily. The women were
nil made to do menial work of some
kind, such ns sweeping the streets
of the city or cultivating and weed
ing the fields. The young boys and
men were sent out to dig trenches and
to bury the dead.
Turned Out of Homes.
Family after family was turned out
of homes to make place for the wives
of tho German olllcers who enme to
stay In Cambrai with their husbands
and for German actresses nnd sing
ers who were brought from Germany
to stage performances of grand opera
and to make merry in tho casinos.
The prisons were kept filled with
"offenders."
Early In September Bergler was told

Millions arc now suffering from the
nfter effects of the deadly "ilu," n
fever or a cold. Their ifppetltes nro

If these people could only realize
that the return to health and strength
would lie greatly helped by giving at

tho entire digestive tract, stinking It

be saved to humanity.
Kveryone knows that the disease It
