WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—Secre- tary of the Navy Daniels will be im- peached for taking over the Marconi Wireless system at a cost of $1,450, 000 without the slightest authoriza- tion of law, if Minority Leader Mann and other incensed Republicans in the house have their way. It has been brought out in the hear- ings on the naval appropriation bill that out of an appropriation of $50,- 000,000 for engineering in the con- duct of the war the secretary, with the consent of the president, negoti- ated with the wireless people and took over their plants in various sec- tions of the country, after, congress had considered the matter and failed to allo wit to be done.

Only twice becaue have exports reached the $600,000,000 mark. During the seven months of the fiscal year ended with January the exports totaled $3,798,000,000, as compared with $3,450,000,000 for the corresponding period of the previous year. The value of imports in January was $213,000,000, as compared, with $211,000,000 in December and $234,- |‘ 000,000 in January, 1918. For the seven months ended with January imports totaled $1,698,000,000, which is a slight gain over the $1,634,000,- 000 for the similar period of the pre- vious year. The excess of exports over imports in January was $410,000,000 an im- pressive total when it is remembered that the excess of exports for the en- tire fiscal year 1919, the last normal year, was only $470,000,000. The imports of gold amounted to $14,000,000 for the seven months ended with January, against $79,000,- 000 last year.

The regular route north from Saloniki to Nish is only about 275 miles and can be travelled in ordi- nary circumstances in 24 hours. Red Cross supplies have taken 10 days) to reach their destination. From Uskub to Belgrade, nearly 300 miles, the railroad at points is wholly destroyed and dozens of bridges and tunnels are in ruins.

The influenza runs a very, brief course when the patient is care-} ful, and if we keep the system in, good condition and threw off the poisons which tend to accumulate| within our bodies, we can escape the! disease. Remember these three C’s—} a clean mouth, a clean skin, clean bowels. To carry off poisons from the system and keep the bowels loose, | daily doses of a pleasant laxative; should be taken. Such a one is made of May Apple, leaves of Aloe, root of | Jalap, and called Dr. Pierce’s Pleas- ant Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used freely if attacked by a cold, and, the patient should be put to bed after} a hot mustard foot-bath. To prevent the attack of bronchitis or pneumonia and to control the pain, Anuric tablets should be obtained at the drug store, and one given every two hours, with lemonade. The Anu- ric tablets were first discovered by Dr. Pierce, and, as they flush the bladder and cleanse the kidneys, they carry away much of the poisons and the uric acid. | It is important that broths, milk, |buttermilk, ice cream and simple diet} |be given regularly to strengthen the system and increase the vital resis ance. The fever is diminished by the juse of the Anuric tablets, but in ad-| dition. the forehead, arms and hands may be bather with water (tepid) in which a tablespoonful of salaratus has been dissolved in’each quart. After an attack of grip or pneu-! monia to build up and strengthen the system, obtain at a drug store a good fron tonic, called “Irontic” Tablets, or that well known herbal tonic, )r.
