Red Cross | are regularly visiting all the owns on the island, and clothing has | been made to about 25,000 of the 5 000 refugees. At the outbreak of the war in 1914 the Greeks were driven out of Asia Minor. There were about 3,000,000 of them there before the war. More than 500,000 escaped to the islands in the Aegean. Thousands were massa- cred. The others, driven out of their homes by the Turks and sent inland, are now returning, only to find their homes either destroyed or occupied by Turks who refuse to move.

The refugees in the Aegean Islands intend to return to Asia Minor as conditions permit. At pre Greek government gives each refugee six cents a da ) The American Red Cross is devot- ing much attention to the prevention of further epidemics such as the ty- phus scourge which took such a hea toll at Mytilene. Efforts are being made to relieve overcrowding and consequent unsanitary ~ conditions which enable epidemics to gain head- way. Food is scanty and costly on the islands and most of the refugees are underfed, even in the large towns where conditions are better than in the outlying villages. The clothing situation is the worst, for after buying food the purchase of clothes is out of the question for the refugees. Nearly all of these persons are in rags The hospitals are short of medicines and other supplies and have been crowded on account of the prevalence of influ- enza. Clothing, blankets and medicine are needed on all the islands. Canned meat for broth is wanted in the hos- pitals. The American Red Cross is supplying clothing to the refugees. American women run the work- shops where clothings is made up in- to garments on the three islands of Mytilene, Chios and Samos. Ameri- can Red Cross men fleld workers oft- drawn by a cheering crowd to the res- idence of the governor general, who commandeered a private home and placed it at the disposal of the ar- rivals. All living expenses were paid by the Greek government. FORTUNE IN FISH FOR PEOPLE OF HULL One Fisherman Is Said to Net About $60,000 Annually—Gamble On Time. Hull, Eng,, April 18, (Correspond- ence of the Associated Press.)—For- tunes from fish are being piled up by skippers operating out of Hull. All through the war their profits were so tremendous that they now constitute @ kind of local plutocracy. They have town houses and country houses and garages filled with motor cars. There are now about 90 skippers working their vessels out of this port. The majority are rough sailors, with a rule-of-thumb knowledge of naxi- gation, and curious ideas about the best way to spend their huge earn- ings. For several years many have been netting from of them $£40,000 to | the $50,000 annually. One is said to have averaged close on to $60,000. A record is held by the skipper of & trawler which last fall made the Ice- land Voyage twice within six weeks, returning from the first trip with a little less than $100,000 worth of fish, and from the second with a little more than that amount ret profit from the two trips was some- thing like $20,000. "The second voy- ago lasted anly 17 days, Owners of the fishing cr: take none of the risks the face, make even more money. which hard would hg though worth sending to sea before war can be counted on now to bring in net profits at the rate of more than $100,000 a year. tions are going boats changing prices.

Even in the smallest doses, if continued, these opiates cause changes in the func- tions and growth of the cells which are likely to become permanent, causing imbecility, mental perversion, a craving for alcohol or narcotics in later life. Wervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying wers are a result of dosing with opiates or narcotics to keep children quiet in their infancy. The rule among physicians is that children should never receive opiates in the smallest doses for more than a day at a time, and only then if unavoidable. . . The administration of Anodynes, Drops, Cordials, Soothing Syrups and other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot be too strongly decried, and the druggist should not be a party to it. Children who areill need the attention of a physician, and it is nothing less than a crime to Jdose them willfully with narcotics. Castoria contains no narcotics if it bears the signature of Chas. H.

I realized that the hetter dentist charged too much for reputation, social position, connec- tions with Dental societies, ete., I believed there was a field of use- fulness for the man who would adopt a middle course; who would ask merely enough to yield a reasonable profit for honest skillful service without fancy fees for reputation or style. I adopted that course and my success has gone beyond my hopes. You Are Cordially Invited to Inspect ‘Whether you want work done or not, I will be glad to see you. Every day is reception day if you are interested in seeing how X-Ray Pictures are made, how my beautiful bridgework and plate- work are made. Samples to be seen in my show case at door. Simply tell the manager or assistant manager or lady attendant that you would like to go through the office. Any one of them will be pleased to explain all the intricacies of these marvelous depart- ments. We always hear this remark: “I never dreamed there was so much to the proper equipment of a modern Dental Office.” You are in need of a Dentist right now, if nothing else but a thorough examination for which there will be no charge.
