Long May It Wave." WANTED AMERICAN LABORERS. The Newark Evening News recent ly carried the following- advertise ment from one of the business con cerns of that city: , ' "LABORERRS WANTED. "Twenty-five good, husky American men wanted, willing to learn machine moulding in a foundry "We have been employing a bunch of Bolshevik aliens on this job, ,. are heartily sick of them all and are go ing to employ from now on men that can talk the English language. "Come with your overalls, ready to start to work." It is altogether probable that the acton of this Newark concern in ad vertising for Americans in the place of Bolshevistic aliens will become general throughout this country. A big Baltimore house employing hun dreds of hands, many of whom are aliens, has recently stated that as rap idly as it can do so it will drop out all forneigners, even if naturalized, and seek to fill their places with genuine Americans The spirit is abroad in ,the land to day to differentiate between Ameri cans and aliens in this country for disrupting our business conditions and destroying our Government will soon find that Americans wl have the pick of all jobs worth having,and that the alien will get only the jobs for which no American can be found. .

They are shown in the Night and Day Camp conducted by the St Louis Society for the Relief and Prevention of Tuber culosis. They are among the fortunate ones because they knew how to 'take care of themselves when this great menace threatened them?4- They knew that the cure lies In plenty of fresh air, even If the temperature is away below freezing, sunlight, good food and rest under proper medical supervision. Tuberculosis Is not only curable but Is preventable as well. The nrevention lies larcely In rlcht living. In building up a strong ooauy rpfifstnnre .

RURALITES HAVE BIG HEAIVANftGE Abundance of Fresh Air and Sunlight Do Much to Check Ravages of Tuberculosis. DANGER IN CLOSED WINDOWS. National Tuberculosis Association, Which Sponsors the Annual Sal of Red Cross Christmas Seals, Reports 150,000 Deaths . Each Year From thr Disease. People who live in the smaller towns and on farms have a great health ad vantage over the city dwellers In that they have ever an abundant supply of fresh air and sunlight. "These two gifts of nature, so lavish ly bestowed, are not always appreciat ed to their fullest extent They are itwo of the strongest weapons against the menace of tuberculosis, or con sumption, as it Is sometimes called. But consumption is not unknown in the rural districts. The death rate Is sometimes as great In these sections as in the more crowded localities, , chiefly because of carelessness or Indifference to laws of health. , ; I r Few, Indeed, are the farm houses or the homes In the smaller cities and villages that cannot have an outdoor sleeping porch. On the contrary, we often find that the windows of. sleep ing rooms in the home are shut tight In the mistaken belief that night air Is harmful. This paves the way for disease, espe cially tuberculosis; which generally "at tacks the lungs. White Plague Kills 150,000 a Year. The white j plague claimed 150,000 lives last year in the United ' States. More than 1,000,000 Americans are suf fering from it today. These figures are compiled from reports of experts all 'over, the country and sent to the National Tuberculosis Association, the leading agency in the country to com bat this disease. This organization Is sponsor for the Red Cross Christmas Seal sale, from, which Its financial sup port is chiefly derived. As medical science has proved con sumption is both preventable and cura ble, the suffering caused by this dis ease is largely unnecessary. 4 Most tu berculosis - victims are between the ages of eighteen and forty-five, j Causes Half Billion Loss Annually. ,' These are the years when" people 'are most active, ., the years of their greatest production. The snuffing out :'of these lives just wiien " they are at the height of their usefulness means an annual loss to the country of near ly half a billion dollars, '-y ? Fresh air is the cheapest of - medi cines. Outdoor sleeping porches are hot only for the sick. They help well folks to keep well, and the country dweller can have this aid to healthy living at far less inconvenience than his city riefghbor.

The gigantic baobab tree of central Africa, the trunk of which sometime nttains a diameter of forty feet often serves as a natural cistern, retaining rain-water In large quantities in a cavity formed at the, top of the broad trunk. Taking the hint thus afforded by nature, the AraTjs artificially hollow out the J huge baobabs ; and -fill them with water during the "prevalence of rains, as a provision against the dry season. These cisterns are in many .cases twenty feet In height and eight or ten feet In diameter. Will the Influenza Return? Public Health Authorities Predict its Recurrence . Guard Against it by Building Up the Blood Pepto-Mangan Creates Rich Red Blood and Increases Strength Surgeon General Blue, of the Un ited States Public Health Service, in a recent statement from Washington, warns the public that the much dreaded influenza epidemic will pro bably return" this fall and winter. All medical-authorities agree that the weak, bloodless, run-downf individual is more likely to contract this (as well as any other infectious disease) than is the strong, robust, red-blooded man or woman. In view of these facts, it is wise to use every affort to build up the blood and thus increase 4the bod ily resistance to the invasion -of the germs of the disease. Gude's Pepto Mangan is an absolutely dependable red-blood builder in all condititions of lower vitality not due to serious dis ease of the vital organs. Tt improves the appetite, imparts color to the cheeks, and creates new hope and ambition in those who become pale, weak, and, listless. Physicians recom mend Gude's Pepto-Mangan.
