BRUSSELS, April 15.—General Von Bis- sing, German governor of Belgium, has completed and put into effect a number of rules controlling the labor of women and children. The absence of so many men at the front has led to the constant danger that the women, in attempting to take thelr places, will do themselves harm by overworking. The new rules permit children between the ages of 14 and 16, and women and children between 16 and 21, to work not longer than twelve Hours a day.

He has been on the west coast for months, trying to get back to his family, but the fighting between the Villa and Carranza forces is going .on along the | raflroad line between him and his family, has come intermittently by steamship up the west coast, and he could have es- caped ‘that way, had not his wife and children been in Mexico City waiting for him.

LONDON, April 15—Care must be taken in the use of antiseptics, lest they prove to be health food for microbes. In any case, antiseptics cannot produce an absolutely sterile wound. These statements were made the Royal Soclety of Medicine by Sir| Almroth Wright In an address on the septic infection of wounds. He did mot | deny the great value of antiseptic pointing to the good results of fnocula- tion against typhold and lockjaw, but he clalmed that fnoculation was rather a preventive than a cure. Some day he thought that sort of treatment would | be applied in the case of wounds. | The ordinary man, sald Sir Almroth, thinks when he antiseptics he 1s killing microbes. Yet experiments have been made showing the addition of anti- septics to bacterial cultures in certain proportions causes bacteria to multiply. Thus the determination of the strength of the antiseptics is an important matter. LORD CURZON DENIES THAT | HE IS THE AUTHOR OF POEM; before use! (Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
