KEEP FINGERS FROM MOUTH
Many Cases of Infection Proved to Be
Due to This Habit, Altogether
Too Common.
"When I became a man I put away
childish things.”
Not always, and hence the aphorism,
‘‘Men are but children of a larger
growth.”
One of the first acts of volition Is
when the child puts Its hands, or any
thing It can get hold of to Its mouth.
In spite of reason, this instinct con
tinues strong through life. If saliva
were a bright green color we would be
kept busy washing our hands. Most
i bacterial diseases nre now believed to
be contracted through the mouth, with
food or otherwise. As a matter of
fact most of us carry our fingers to
our mouth or nose many times a day
and in so-doing transmit to ourselves
diseases that others have spread about.

a habit. Further comment seems su
perfluous.—George II. Glover,<Colorndo

SEVEN YEAR ITCH.
The veterans of the civil war tell
ns how seven-year Itch spread over
the country after the soldiers returned
home. 80 striking was the connec
tion between the seven-year Itch and
soldiers that the common name for
the disease about that time was camp
itch. Some of the old timers have been
scaring the younger generations with
stories of seven-year Itch waiting
right around the corner, even saying
that the disease had already been scat
tered broadcast.
The Kentucky Medical Journal
deems It advisable to tell the people
that the stories about the wide preva
lence of scabies, army Itch, camp Itch,
seven-year itch or prairie Itch are not
true. Things havs been done differ
ently in thlff war and we do not have
to be afraid to walk on the same side
of the street with a soldier lest w«
catch something.
At the embarkation hospital at
Newport News the authorities estab
lished arscables ward for the treatment
of seven-year Itch. They had to car*
for only 102 men. How different the
experience of 1861-65.
Seven-year Itch Is so named because
It Is popularly supposed to last seven
years. In the army hospital they cured
it In less than seven days. This Is
their method; The subject stripped off
hie clothing and scrubbed his skin
with soap, using a brdsh for the pur
pose. He was told to scrub all the tops
from the sore places. The scrubbing
and subsequent washing took about
half an hour. After drying he rubbed
his body thoroughly, covering every
square inch of skin with the following
ointment:
Sulphur ointment.30 parte
Balsam peru.4 to 8 parts
The spaces between the fingers were
especially well rubbed. This was left
on all night. The next morning it was
washed off and a lighter application
of ointment was made. The washing
and annolnting of the entire body was
kept up for six days. Every stitch of
clothing and all sheets, blankets and
bedding 'which had touched the pa
tient were sterilized by heat (150 de
grees or over). Every case was cured.
Cranston goes the army method sev
eral better. His method Is called the
one-day method. At night he scrubs
the skin from the neck down with
green soap, using a brush. This takes
15 minutes. This is washed off with
hot water, using a brush. This wash
ing and rubbing should occupy 30
minutes. He then rubs In the follow
ing:
Ichthyol .10
Sulphur sublimated....12
Carbonate of potash. ®
Triturated camphor. *
Grease .®°
The next morning he washes this
off with hot sulphur water. This takes
15 minutes.
Bulphur water Is made by putting
three ounces of hepar sulphur In a pint
of water and letting It stand all night.
The next morning this is poured into
the bath water. After taking the bath
In sulphur water the m£.n dresses in
clothing that has been sterilized by
heat. All clothing and bed clothes
which have been fh contact with the
patient are sterilized by heat.
After the War.
When Kaiser Bill’s embattled Huns
were doing stunts with swords and
guns, you were a dead game sport,
we know, who breathed defiance to
the foe. No sacrifice was then too
great, you wished to squelch that Wil
helm skate, and everything for which
he stood, and you were busy sawing
wood. You sold the cow, your car you
pawned, so you could buy another
bond. With loyal boys you held the
fort; you were. In truth, a dead game
sport. And now the silly war Is done;
we’ve placed the kibosh on the Hun,
have gained for man a brighter day—
but there are many bills to pay. In.
wartime you were great, my friend;
don’t be a piker at the end. Our Uncle
Sam. he needs a pile, and has to bor
row for a while. He needs full many
a shining bone, and so he springs
another loan, and we should rise on
our hind legs, and offer him the dough
in kegs. Are we less loyal than we
were when we were lifting Teuton
fur? I wot riot, and I wist nay, nay;
we’li help our Uncle Sam to pay. He
needs all kinds of large round plunks;
we’ll dig the doubloons from our
trunks. And you will help us out, my
friend. Don't be a piker at the end.

From the Birmingham Age-HeralJ.
"While 1 was at Camp Funston as camp
adjutant," said MnJ. Frank S. White, jr.,
"thero was a Nebraska lieutenant who
brought a negro soldier Into my headquar
ters one day ami stated to me that the
negro was a conscientious objector, and
that since ho was from Alabama lie want
ed me to talk to him.
"The first thing I did was to command
him to stand at attention Instead of tak
ing an easy chair he eaw near by. IIo
noticed my southern accent and Imme
diately looked me over. Finally he said:
‘Majah, ain't you from de south?' I re
plied that 1 was. Then I asked htrn what
church he belonged to, and he replied that
in Essjuattum losia.m u^t a ^
was a Baptist! and claimed to be a con
scientious objector, he was a liar and
know It, for Baptists were fighting folks,
ftpd especially Alabama Baptists, white or
black. Then the negro Eaid:
"Boss, I'se gwlne to Come clean wid
you. I'so been a barber down at Daffney,

He won no fame with sword or pen.
No problems ho made clear;
Amid the eager throngs of men
None pressed his words to h<tr.
He found no lands unknown before.
Brought freedom to no slave;
Unearthed no wisdom known of yore.
No glittering bounty gave.
From Nature’s hand no wealth he wan,
He gained no cross nor palm;
By him no splendid deed was done.
He wrought no shameful harm
So countless millions pass th"lr days
In useless lives, we’re taught.
Who dares so read Hod’s hidden ways—
And say these lives are naught?
