POLAND NOT SUILTY, Not a small amount of interest was aroyced last year over the reported ® in Poland where Jews were the vietims. 'The nymbpers ran dnto the thousends and from the jocountie it was but natural that there wag mwuch resentment and many demands that Poland put am end to such con- ditions. In spite of the elaims Poland denied the truth of the assertions and in support of its stand demanded that an investigation be made. It has taken some time to get 3 re- port from ths commissien that was named to irvestigate the matter, but it ham at I bren forthceming and out «f it comes the upholding of the tention of the Peles that they had nat deses tn the metheds that were rescried te in certain sections of ©ld Russia. ‘The eommission eomsisting of for- mer Ambassador Morganthay, Briea- { .

TUBERCULAR SOLDIERS, It the facts as understasd are ecor- reet there appears to be gcod ground for ihe pretest that has peen made u¥ the Amerivaa lLegion ever the ac- tion of the war department in order- g the discharge from hospitais of tubereylur spldiers whe after year's treatment are net making sat- isfastory progress. The claiti is made that there are 46.088 of thase and the war depart- ment has said that these men will be loeked after by the public heaith ser- ciet. To this the Legion presents the rbarge that sueh is Impessible And that they will be turned back ta their Families or allewed te shift for ‘hem- welves. The intirest of the Awmeriean Legicn in these men is only what 1s| ie e expert:d. Having racrificeq their| Lealth, even a3 they were willing to merifice “their lives, it womld appear te be the duty of the government to t3ke care of these men and give them whatever eare is needed. The pro test indicates that there is slight con- 1dence piized in the claim that the men will be taken care of. This erier dscharging the men comes at & time when the country has! Jjust geme threugh a campaign for the| raising of funds to stamp out tuber- culefis. As 3 part thereaf the neces ity of edusitieaal werk to warn the public and ‘nvestigations to leeate the cases of tuberculosis was pointed out. The wisdom of proteciing the public wt iaige by finding and treating the unsuspected cases c2n be realized. At the same time the importance of in- stitutional care and treatment instead O permit''ng tubercular pecple to mingle without reserve ameng the well is not to be overiooked. There- Tere asid> from throwirz a responsi- bisity upon other shoulders which rightly belongs on the government, the turnirg loese of thousands of pa- tighte cannet fail to be regarded as a most unwise move direetly against the imterests of public health. Those who sre ot making progress should be en- titled te the same attention as those whe are. i { REDUCING MINE HAZARDS. ¥or a number of years increased at- tentien has beon ‘given to reducing the| number af deaths among miners.

Gleaned 7rom Foreign Ex: changes : Viscount Grey is an exception to the Biblical axiom about a prophet being without honor in his awn eountry, for during his 31 years' unbrokqn repre- sentation in the House of Commons of the Berwick-on-Tweed division there wag no more popular man in North- umberland between the Coquet and the Tweed. (Further south the veteran Thomas Burt is a riyal in papular es- teem.) Scores of locdl children answer to the name of Edward, bestowed in henor of the laird of Fallodon. Not all the villages in this rural division posses a hall, and occasionally the Presbyterian church is used as a meeting place. I was once at a meet- ing in one of these churches. and pending the arrival of Sir BEdward from across thé sands at Holy Island the “cengregation” whiled away the time by singing pelitical songs, to the accompaniment of the church har- monium. Included in the pregramme was the following, sung lustily, with a generous infusion of the Nerthum- brian “burr” to the Sankey tune, “Hold the Fort":— * Hold the fort, Sir Edward's ceming, He's our ghampion still; We will send him back to Londen, Husband and Wife's Novel.

Renogvating Ypres. Ypres, where it is vroposed to erect a church as a memo- rial to our men who fell in this see- tor of the old British line, is being tidied up gradually after the devasta- tion caused by the war. A great deal of the work has heen done by German | nriseners. for whom two big camps| have been erected near the Menin rpad, and the trenches, shell-holes, and mine-craters have been filled in and| obliterated. Far from being unsightly, there is something pathetically impressive in the ruins of the Flemish city, where the ex-kaiser intended to the crowned king of Flanders. Ivy and other ereeping plants have done 4 great deal to effaee the results o the heavy hom- bardments by the German gunners and visitors return with the impression of pioturesqueness rather than desola- tion. A Little-Known Geologist. Few men whase scientific discoveries are of real importance are so little known to the public as Benjamin Harrison, whose name appeared in the recent Civil List. ¥ - Born in 1837 at Ightham, near Sey- en-gaks, Mr. Harrison has seldom traveled more than 20 miles from his birthplace, where he kept the village grocery store for more than 50 years. Although he has never published any aceount of his geelegical wark, the re. search, extending over more than half- a-centurpy, into the.geological ferma- tion of the North Dewns in his vicini- ty_have been of the utmost value. Tn particular, Mr. Harrison's disecov- eries of worked flints earlier than the Palasolithic period have established the existefice of man. as a tool-using animal, in periods of almést ineredic ble antiquity. Book that Inspired am Emplayer: In a memoir of the late Mr. Walter Hazell, former M.

Bonfires—How did a bonfire come by its name? Authorities- differ. Some, with a passion for the obvious, suggest that it is from the French “bon,” and is merely a good fire, Oth- ‘ers, fncluding our -chief encycloppaedia and Beaumont and Fleteher, who spelled it “bonfire,” agree that it was to be traced to a pagan funeral eus- tom. If they are right it is curious that bonfires have been diverted from their original use to serve as signals of national rejoicing. Yet others de- rive it from the Danish® “bann" or beacen, and on Saturday, at any rate, this derivatign will seem to express better than the the others the pur- pose for which countless bonfires will bed kindled.—The Lendon Chron- iele. % IN THE DAY’S NEWS The New PaleStine Palestine soon may take its place among industrial nations, and ancient Jerusalem ay become a humming mart of modern trade, if projects in contemplation are are realized. One such project is that of building a tunnel from the Dead Sea to the Mediterranean, passing Jérusalem, which would utilize the variation in levels %o provide ' water power for stations along the way. - A second suggestion is fe build a new industrial zone about Jerusalem, while the ancient city is preserved in- tact. In this connection the National Geogtaphic Seeiety has issued, from its Washingten headquartars, the follawing bullétin based on a commun- ication to The Society by John D. Whiting. “Few realize that the manners and customs which prevailed in the Holy Land in Biblical days are still un- changed, even after an interval of 3,000 years. % “The present day villages are loeat- ed, as a rule; either on the tops ef hills, eriginally for protection, or near some spring or source of water. Many. are huilt upep the foundations of dwelling- whose origin . dates back thoysands ef ypars. There does nat exist a single example of a Peaqnl villoge that has been founded n modern times. “Many have pictured Mary and Jo- sephy after arriving at the ‘inn’ at Bethlehem, and finding no roem, he- ing fereed to turn into some barn built of timber, with lofty reof, hay mows, wooden mangers, and stalls for cattle and sheep.

BIG EATERS GET KIDNEY TROUBLE TAKE SALTS AT FIRST SIGN OF BLADDER .IRRITATIOON OR BACKACHE The American men and women must guard censtantly against Kidney trouble, becayse we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish: the elim- inative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and | a general decline in health. ‘When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts er ‘the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spel! acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tabl speonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fam- ous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemen juice, comhbined with lithia, and has been used for genera- tions to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source of ir- rigation, thus ending bladder dis- orders. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- jure, makes a- delightful effervescent lithia water beverage, and belongs in every home, because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flushing any time. e ———rere hard and compact enough to shed the = i “A steep, outside stairc2se, unpro- tected by any railing, is built up to the roof, for the surface must be re- paired at times, The flat, open space| of the roof also forms a handy place on which to dry figs and raigins, and: during - the hot weather the family may sleep there at night. “Entering the door, we fi§d that| about two-thirds of the space is de- voted to a raised masonry platiorm, and supported by low-domed arches.

A few narrow stope steps| lead up to the mastaby, and a couple| of small windows piercs the wall, high | up from the ground. These, as a rule| are the only means of adfitting light| and furnishing ventilation to the en- tire ' house. “On ene side is an open fireplace, with a chimney running through the wall and terminating on the roof, often in an old water jar whpsge hot- tom has been knocked out, and so hecomes a sort of smokestack. Many houses have no chimneys at all; small holes through the wall, or the windews, furnish the only exit for the smoke, which on winter days fairly fills the house. “PThe furniture s very simple—a erudely decorated bridal chest, a straw mat, or heavy woven waolen rug, which covers part of the floor, and mattresses with thick quilts and hard pillews, which at mght are spread en the floor.
