It consists of n 200-pound lump of coal and about COO little glass bottles containing various products that can be made from this lump. The exhibit, However, Is not quite nnlshc,d. When It Is there will be 1,400 of these little glass Dottles. These exl. is represent tho achievement of the new American coal products Industry, one of the most Itn- ijuiuim ui our war names, which me scientists of the governnient are tlolng everything In their power to keep alive. Wth half the coal in the world In Its possession Is seems foolish for the United States to" Import all its coal by products from Germany. Yet this la what happened before the war, and this Is whnt may happen again unless steps ore taken to protect the new Infant until it learns to walk safely. The rise of the coal by-products Industry In this country with the excep tion of the manufacture of dyestulTs has been so quiet and Inconspicuous that the public Is still unacquainted with the numerous amazing things that uro contained In conl. This exhibit In tho museum Is to fninlllnrlzo tho public with these products. Dr. Chester K. Gilbert, curator of minernl technology of the museum, Is also attempting to nronso people to the Importance of coal by-products by a series of pamphlets' and lectures, 1h which he puts tho com plicated, scientific side of the now Industry In popular form. The United States stands to gain a brand now Industry with nlmost unlim ited possibilities from the war, if it succeeds In holding out against tho renewed efforts of the German coal by-products Industry to supply the world. What Constitutes Violation of the Sherman Law? RKCONSIDEKATION by congress of all antitrust legislation Is recommended by the chamber of commerce of the United States as the result of a refer endum vote of Its alltllnted trade and commercial organizations.

In view "Of the Importance of the functions of the trade commission ns they would exist the membership of the federal trade commission should be Increased to nine for, 1,104; against 422. Some modillcation of the Sherman Inw seems desirable, not only to carry business over .the period of readjustment, but for the peTmnnent benefit of the country. Enlightened business men are not advocating the repeal of the law, despite some of Its bad features; tt 1?. even doubtful whether congress could be persuaded to eliminate the provision designating nny violation ns n criminal offense. - What ls'advoeated is an amendment conferring upon some federal admin istrative agency the power to determine In ndViinco whether a proposed agree ment or combination"" constitutes a violation of the law. As It Is now tho business man Is more or less at sea. Children's Bureau Weighing the Nation's Babies WEIGHING of more than 2,000,000 babies, establishment of many new health centers to ndvlse mothers on the care of their children nnd stimu lation of the movement to keep children In school and provide them adequate recreation, nre reported by tho chil dren's bureau as some of the results of Its children's year campaign. More than 11,000,000 women par ticipated in the activities of tho year. It was planned to save at least 100.000 of the 300.000 children who die annual ly of preventable diseases. The llrst activity of the year was a tpst of children under six to see .whether they were up to the stand ards of weight and height for their nges. Nearly 7.000,000 record cards were Issued, of which more tlum 2,000,000 have been tabulated, with others yet to be turned In, A number of communities have undertaken a second test this spring to Include Children missed in the llrst nnd also to note Improvement In thosi previously registered. Need for preventive work oh bglinlf of children was said to have been emphasized by the Information obta ined by the tests. According to report -received from state child welfare chairmen of the council of 'national dcfensi-. communities in 21 states have employed new public henlth nurses. From ten of these states a total of 137 new nurses has been reported, - A number of communities have provided scholarship funds to enable chil dren of needy parents to continue their education after they reacit the legnl working age. At least one such scholarship for eaeli of the 281,000 school houses In the United Stntes Is tho goal that has been set. No Wonder We Licked Fritz With Men Like These!

The I.ugers had u language of their own The Germans In range of the guns of the Yanks laid down their arm.-. More Germans kept coming out of Cheppy as the American urmy on the otlu-r side closed In. As fast as they came the nine Yanks forced them to lay down their arms. After a time they quit coming nnd the nine Yanks found they had 10.1 German captives, Including five ofllcers. ' Then Sergeant Ilnrtnian ordered his eight men to advance down the road toward Cheppy to see If they could bag a few more Teutons. He sturted tho 103 Germans back toward the American lines. "They were the maddest Germans I ever snw," Ilnrtinnn said. "When those German officers found out tlmt they and 158 men had sutvendered to nine YnnkK's they were blue In tho face.

(Prepared by tho United Slates Depart ment of Agriculture.) The development of the nntlonnl for rot road systems Is given great linpe ius by the terms of the post olllce up I roprlatlons net which the president I'ns signed. Hesldes Increasing by 5200.000,000 the total fund available j i.uder the federal aid rond act, the ipw law makes available for expendi ture by" tho secretary of ngrlculttire isn.000,000 for roads, and trulls. The law also authorizes the sccro- j tury of war. to transfer to the scero- tnry of agriculture, material, equip- "tent and supplies suitable for high way Improvement and not needed by Hie war department. While most of ilils will be distributed among the high ny commissions of the-states for use federal aid road projects, not to xceed 10 per cent may be reserved by the secretary of agriculture for use In I wilding natural forest roads or other roads constructed under his direct su pervision. The $0,000,000 fund may bo used for maintenance as well , as survey and construction. Tho new legislation, like the federal aid road act, authorizes the building of roads and trails necessary for the use and development .of na tional foreft resources or desirable for P'p proper administration, protection, and Improvement of such forest, or co-operative local contributions can be tihtalned, but in addition It contains a now feature of much Importance. Tills new feature permits the sccre of agriculture without tho co-operation tf local ofllclals to build and maintain "any road or trnll within n nntlonnl forest which ho llntls necessary for the proper administration, protection and Improvement of such forest, or Mhlch In his opinion Is of nntlonnl Importance." In the view of forestry ollicltils this Inw Is the most Important siep ever taken for rapid development of national forest roads system, nnd will be of Inestimable benefit to the local public. "The measure gives us much bronder scope for a fully developed program tluin we have had before Bays Ilenry S. Graves, chief of the forest service, In commenting on the new law. "Un- Good Road 'In One of Our National I Forests. ' der the federal aid rontl act we had for roads within or partly within the forests, $1,000,000 a year, available un til expended. Owing to the war, which practically halted the work, we have an accumulated balance of S2.500.000 unexpended and another $1,000,000 which will become available July 1. I " "Tills legislation will not only make It easier to protect the forests with out costly expenditures to fight bad fires in Inaccessible localities, but will 1 also help enormously the many small communities and scattered settlers In j find inenr the forests who now suffer i for lack of roads. It will also en 1 nble the construction of important i trunk-line ronds crossing the maun I tnlns, with suitable provision of sub I sldlary roads. One result unquestlon- nbly will be a marked development of recroatlonnl use of these great national playgrounds with their wealth of too little known attractions. Altogether, the opening up of the forests to moro complete nnd varied use by the pub lic, which is the fundamental object of their ndmlnlstrntlon, will bo tremen dously ndvanced." Under the Inw preference is given to jtlio employment of honornbly dis charged soldiers, sailors and marines for the required Inbor.

Judging from reports from druggists rrho are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is coon realized. It stand the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the subject, made the as tonishing statement that one reason why so manv applicants for Insurance are re jected is because kidney trouble Is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. However, If you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co,, Binghamton, N.
