M STATEMENTS SHOW PROSPERITY 7 INCREASE IN PRICES; RUBBER HIGHEBT IN A"LMOST TEN YEARS. New York. —Confidence in business prospects was strengthened by indica tions of record breaking prosperity as revealed In the national bank state ment, showing their condition at the close of the first half of the year. Re sources, deposits and undivided profits of the large New York institutions ex ceeded the previous high records established in the boom years of 1919 and 1920, while Chicago banks report ed corresponding gains. This satisfactory commentary on the state of trade, coming at a time when signs of expansion were visible in various lines of industry, engender ed a more cheerful sentiment in finan cial circles. With prices of many se curities selling aronpd the highest levels of the year, Wall street recall ed with satisfaction that It was just a year ago that the stock market be gan an upward climb which culminat ed in the impressive post election boom. Except for a moderate sprinja reaction, the course of prices has now been advancing for more than a year. Among the most illuminative as pects of the business situation were advancing prices for several steel pro ducts, copper, crude oil, and rubber, the last named commodity selling above $1 a pound, the highest price in almost ten years. With crude oil output declining steadily,' a commis sion of expert geologists predicted that the peak of production in this country had been passed for all time and that it was not too early to begin a search for satisfactory petroleum substitutes. Automobile manufacur ing activities continued to quiet down but production jvas reported still to be of record proportions for this late stage of the season. No striking changes took place in the steel industry the most significant development being the forecast of the trade reviews that consumption would continue through July and August on a scale well above the summer of 1924. The United States Steel corporation's unfilled orders at the eftd of June showing a decrease of 389,342 tons compared with the month before, was somewhat disappointing to Wall street, which had been expecting a better showing. « America Waits Action. Washington.—Supported by specific presidential approval of the policy he has mapped out for dealing with the Chinese problem, Secretary Kellogg is back from his interrupted vacation awaiting results of conferences in Peking and elsewhere through which the protocol powers are expected to work out ways and means of insuring the protection of their nationsl. There was no indication that the diplomatic conversations in verious capitals had as yet reachd a stage where the exact course to be follow ed could be forecast. As Mr. Kellogg himself pointed out after his confer ence with President Coolidge at the summer White House, the policy of the Washington government was bas ed on the desire to give effect to the commitments Into which it Jiad enter ed with respect to China at the Wash ington arms and limitations confer ence. The chief features of those commit ments, in view of present conditions in China, relate to a resolution call ing for the creation of a commission to study and report on the question of relinquishing extra-territorial right* in China on the one hand, and the treaty engagement for a revision of Chinese customs rates on the other. With relation to the extra-territor ial question, the Washington govern ment has confined its suggestions to the other powers to the'proposal that the commission, provided for by reso lution number five adopted by the Washington conference, be appointed at an early date so a beginning can be made on what is certain to be a long process of discussion and debate. Explosion of Gssolins Foils PloL Providence R. I.—The explosion of a can of gasoline is believed to have Toiled an attempt to destroy the Bed ford Woolen mills at Chepachet.

The blast tore a hole In the first floor and damaged one spooling ma chine. A stick wrapped with waste soaked in gasoline was found smoul dering in a pile of waste on the second floor. Police are searching for an automobile seen speeding away Heroic Act Saves Four. Wilmington—William A.

Washington.—Federal internal rev enue for the fiscal year 1925 was re duced only $212,168,469 from the fiscal year 1924 despite sharp cuts made by *lhe last revenue law In Income and other tax rates. Total tax receipts for the fiscal year 1925, which ended June 30, were an nounced as $2,784,010,847, of which sl.- 761,681.641 from the direct assessment on incomes and $822,329,206 was from the miscellaneous sources upon which the federal treasury draws. In the fiscal year 1924 the income taxes yield ed $1,841,759,316 and miscellaneous $954,419,940. While the present tax law was fully productive only half of the fiscal year, it gave evidence which treasury offi cials said confirmed their belief that lowered rates would increase the total receipts. The Important reductions in the income levies caused a shinkage of only $80,077,675 in this item of gov ernment revenue, and officials study ing the question therefore regard It as unlikely that the law, which was de signed as a whole to reduce the tax burden by $400,000 000 really will ac complish that purpose. They are convinced that reduced rates have opened up new channels of Income and provided encourage ment to moneyed interests to place their funds in productive enterprises. The bureau's figures were calculat ed on the basis of telegraphic reports from internal revenue collectors and were subject to change, but officials believed the alteraton would be incon sequential. No attempt was made to separate the figures according to sources further than the two great classes of revenue upon which the government depends for most of Its running expenses.

FLOW OF GOLD AFFECTS CREDIT SHIPMENTS ABROAD TOTAL 1175,- 000,000 IN PAST SEVEN MONTHS. Washington^—The turn in the tide of gold h&s beguff to affect banking credit in the United States, and mem bers of the s««>em are resorting to increasing use of credit from the Fed eral Reserve banks. A gold outflow of $175,000 000 has taken place in the last seven months and now, the federal reserve board disclosed, the commercial banks And themselves in a position sharply in contrast to that which they held al most continually since the end of the war. f During those years these banks, through the deposit of Imported gold with the federal reserve banks, ob tained funds for repayment of bor rowings and tor use as a basis for in creased extension of credit. "For four years prior to 1925." the reserve board said in its monthly dis cussion of conditions, "continuous in ward movements had been the prin cipal factor in the large growth of (commercial) bank credit, accompan ied by a decreased use of reserve bank credit. But recently the direc tion of the gold movement has been reversed and gold exports have tended to check the growth of member banks' credit and to increase the demand for reserve bank credit." Total loans and investment of all member banks, though they show little growth so far this year, now ap proximate $2,500,000,000 or 10 per cent more than in the spring of 1924. For two years the total loans and in vestments of these banks has been above the high point reached in the fall of 1920 and April 6, this year, they were roughly $3,000,000,000 lar ger than the maximum in 1920. The larger volume of member bank credit, as compared with 1920, when the commercial demand for bank cred its was unduly large, was declared by the board to reflect almost entirely a growth In the bank's investments, which were shown to stand at a record high level.

CREEN Editor of "HEALTH" oooooooocxxxxxxxxxxxsoooooo (6 lilt. Waatara Nawapapar Union.) DISCOVERING THE LAZY BUG LI OOKWORM disease Is caused by the presence In the bowels of many little worms. These worms are called hookworms, because they have One, aharp hooks In their heada by which they faaten themselves to the lining of the bowels, «o that they can auck blood from the vlctlm'a veins. These worms are only about an Inch long and about aa big aa a One hairpin. The amount of blood which each worm can suck Is not very great, but when the unfortunate person who has these worms has hundreda or thou sands of them to feed, the loss Is so great as to make the victim pale and weak. Just like sny other form of hemorrhage. Hookworm dlseaae haa long been known to be common among the min ers snd tunnel workers In Italy and Switzerland. But It waa not supposed to exist In this country. In 1900, sfter the Spanish-American war, when thla country took charge of Porto Rico, the surgeon general of the army sent Cspt. Bailey Astiford down there to report on the heslth of tlye people. He found that, In that beautiful, tropical para dise, there waa not much alcknesa, such as is ordinarily found, but that a great many natlvea were pale, llat leas and without energy, that many of them were "clay eaters" and seemed unable to do anything. Doctor Aahford bad aeen some caeca of hookworm in Europe and waa struck by the resemblance between the two conditions. He began to look for hookworms and soon found them In large numbers. He made a report to the surgeon general on anemia in Porto Rico, which waa the btelnning of our knowledge of.thla disease In America. \ Then Dr. Charles W. Stiles United States Public Health 'aervlce began to study the poor whites In the South. These people had been con sidered too lazy to work, living in old and mlaerable cabins, many of them dirt eaters. Doctor Stiles found that they were not lazy but alck. Too aick to work, with their bodies drained of nearly all their blood by these mlaer able hook worm a. Some of you way remember how the newapapers, 20 years sgo, poked fun at Doctor Stiles as the discoverer of the "lazy bug." But Doctor Stiles was right. boon the Rockefeller Foundation be came ' Interested and began working with the federal government and the state and county health ofllcera to stamp out these hookworms. Millions of dollars have been apent and much has been done, though much remains to be done. Hookworms enter the body through the skin, generally the skin of the feet. They «ause a swelling and erup tion called ground Itch, dew itch, cow Itch or foot Itch. If you want to avoid hookworm a. don't go barefooted In parta of the country where they are numeroua. GROWING PAINS ONE of the time-honored supersti tions of mothers Is that children have "growing palna." Juat bow did the Idea originate that growth was painful? Growth la a natural, normal, healthy process of the body. Pain la Unnatural and abnormal. Any pain, anywhere, at any time la a sign thst something Is wrong. Any child thst hss s psin In sn srm, a leg, or the Ifhck that la anything more than tem porary hss something wrong some where. Pain Is the body's danger algnal. Just like a red light on a railroad track. Never run paat a red light, la one of the most Important rules the engineer must learn and obey. Don't neglect a pain, la a rule that every mother and nurae'should heed. There are no such things sa "growing palna." If a child baa persistent psin any where, It meana, generally, tbkt there la aome kind of Infection aomewhere that la producing polaona that are Ir ritating the nerves and caualng the pain. Thla Infection may come from the bow el a. due to conatlpatlon. It may come from Infected teeth or tonal la. It may be the Drat symptoms of rheu mstlsm or heart dlseaae. But rheuma tism and heart'dlaeaae In moat caaea are the result of Infections. Enlsrged snd diseased tonsils and adenoida are responsible for most caaea of rheumatlam. This disease Is espe cislly common In the spring snd fall It Bret shows Itself by vsvue pains la the Joints snd muscles, later by awelt- Inga. redneaa and tenderness In tbe Joints The germs or polsoos in the blood csuse Irritstlon, not only of the Joints but slso of the lining of the hesrt. This Irritstlon msy be so se vere as to produce little ulcers on the hesrt wslls snd vslves, which, even If they heal, form scsrs which pull tbe vslves out of shspe and out of posi tion. leaving the child with a per manently disabled heart which he bas to live with tbe rest of bla life. Any child who baa "growing pains" or any persistent pain should be care fully examined for Infected teetb and tonsils The heart should be carefully watched, as the great majority of caaea mt M«r» Irankla kadn la childhood.
