What Made Him Sick. Certainly public employes who havi to submit daily to a rapid fire ot well meant but needless questions may be excused If they occasionally turn upon their persecutors.

"'Yes, ma'am," courteously replied the elevator Soy. " • ' % "Is it the motion going down?" pur sued the lady. "No, ma'am." "The going up?" "No, ma'am." "Is It the stopping that does It?"

The brain cannot work with clear ness and accuracy, if the food taken If not fully digested, but is retained la the stomach to ferment and form poisonous gases, etc. A dull, clouded brain is likely to be the result. A Mich, lady relates her experience ' in changing her food habits, and re sults are very Interesting: "A steady diet of rich, greasy foods such as sausage, buckwheat cakes and so on, Anally broke down a stomach and nerves that, by inheritance, were sound and strong, and medicine did no apparent good in the way of relief. "My brain was clouded and dull and I was suffering from a case of consti pation that defied all remedies used. "The, 'Road to Welivll|(e,' in some providential way, fell into my hands, and may Heaven's richest blessings fall on the man who was Inspired to write it. "I followed directions carefully, the physical culture and all, using Grape- Nuts with sugar and cream, leaving meat, pastry and hot biscuit entirely out of my bill of fare. The result— I am in perfect health once more. "I never realisre I have nerves, and my stomach and bowels are in line condition. My brain is perfectly clear and I am enjoying that state of health which God intended his creatures should enjoy and which all might have, by givlhg proper attention to their food."

Ancon, C. Z.—All tho world gives to Col. W. C. Gorgas, chief Banltary offi cer, and his assistants full credit for the wonderful work they have accom plished In making the Panama canal zone healthful and keeping it so. All the world that knows gives equal r greater credit to those American, Ital ian and English doctors and soldiers who sacrificed their health and In some cases their lives to prove that yellow fever and malaria, the two ter rors of tropic America, are transmit ted by the bite of mosquitoes. It is not ray intention Xo tell over again the latter story. The devotion of those brave men actually made pos sible the building of the Panama canal, for their work has been tak en full advantage of by Colonel Gor gas and his forces, and the zone Is now one of the most healthful places in the world. Before the coming of the Amer icans the Isthmus was a veritable pest hole. The French canal builders and their workmen and the laborers on the Panama railway died like flies, usually of malaria or yellow fever. Today a fatal case of malaria is a rarity, the more malignant form being almost unknown, and not a single case of yellow fever has originated in the zone In several years. The Stegomyia mosquito, the yellow fever bearer, has not been exceed ingly hard to exterminate because it breedß and lives only near human habitations. When the Americans had substituted a regular water sys tem and underground sewers for the rain water barrels and the open ditches in Colon, Panama and the other towns, ai/d had fumigated all the dwellinga, Stegomyia was prac tically extinct. That Job of fumi gat- l'~" ■■ -it. :' ' - ' i Ancon Hill. lng, by the way, raised a great row among the Ignorant inhabitants of Panama. They could not understand why they should be all moved out Into the street and their houses filled with evil-smelling fumes, and they were Inclined to offer forcible re sistance until the zone police took the matter in band. Much more difficult has been the task of eradicating malaria, for the Anopheline mosquito, which makes a specialty of carrying this disease, is widespread and of several varieties. It is the female only that bites, and she needs blood —preferably .red blood—for the development of her eggs. The eggs are deposited in a slow moving or stationary water and hatch out into little larvae or "wrig glers." At least once in two minutes the larva must come to the' surface to breathe, and that is where the san itary department gets It, usually. As one wanders about tbe zone he sees at tbe headwaters of every stream, ditch or other water cotjine, at frequent Intervals along Its banks, and at the of every pool, a big tin can or a keg. Prom this recep tacle there Is a constant drip, drip, drip of larvacide. a black, oily-looking compound of crude carbolic acid, caustic soda and resin. This spreads out over the water, an Iridescent film, and when little Anopheline larva comes up for air he meets a swift death. To replenish these cans of larvacide a small army of Jamai cans is kept traveling about the zone, and others go around with tanks of the compound strapped on their backs, spraying every pool they come to. Another measure of extermination has been the draining and filling in of swampy ground and the straightening and clearing of water courses BO that their flow will be too swift for Mad ame Anophellne. The work of drain ing and filling has been extensive and near the Pacific end of the canal has resulted in the reclamation of large tracts of land for building sites. The third part of the anti-mosquito campaign is the careful screening of buildings occupied by human being*. Ordinary mosqtlito netting would not do and only copper wire will stand the climate there. Consequently a fine meshed copper screening is used. If any Anopbelines escape the larva cide and succeed in gaining entrance to a habitation, the mosquito-killers are summoned and seldom fall to get them. Nine days must elapse after a mosquito has bitten a malarious per son before it becomes infectious, and this gives the mosquito brigade plenty of time to kill the insects while they are asleep on the walls. The isola tion of infected persons in the hos pitals helps a lot, for of course the mosquito cannot carry malaria until it has bitten a malarious person. Rats, that carry the bubonic plague, an'd flies, that transmit various other diseases, have received adequate at tention from the sanitary depart* ment, and dumb brutes are not neg lected. As an Instance of the latter fact, every horse and mule In the zone must be placed at night In one of a series of corrals established by the 4pP artniGnt and there it Is fed and cared for, the owner paying a reasonable fixed charge for the serv ice. These animals, If left out, often are attacked by a disease that is In fectious and may be transmitted to human beings. Besides that, the na tive cannot be persuaded to keep hla stable in sanitary condition. Many other sanitary regulation* are Imposed on the people of tha Isthmus. All garbage must be dt> posited In receptacles to be collected by the department's wagons and burned In Its crematories. Chicken* may not be kept within a certain dis tance of any dwelling. Rain water may not be gathered and kept In open receptacles. That last rule la not easy to enforce, for the Panaman ian prefers rain water for drinking purpose*. But all these are for the general good, and the United State* has the treaty right to attend to th? sanitation of Panama and Colon aa well as of the zone. In addition to the two great hos pitals at Ancon and Colon, the depart* ment of sanitation maintains a dis pensary with physician and nurse at every town along the route of tho canal and at Porto Bello, where the commission ha* a big stone quarry. The larger hospital, on Ancon hill, close to Panama, in the spring of the year had about 900 patients. Its wards and the residences of the physicians and nurses are scattered picturesquely though rather incon veniently on the east and north slopes of the beautiful hill, and the grounds are filled with magnificent trees and lovely flowering vines and bushes. A little further around the bIH~W" the hospital for the Insane, and It, too, Is well filled, for the Ja maican and Barbadian negroes go razy at the slightest provocation. In Colon, stretching along the sea? shore in the only pretty part of that flat city, is the other hospital, smaller but no less efficient and well manned than that at Ancon. Its grounds are Bwept continually by the refreshing winds from the Atlantic and many of its wards are built out ovef tho wa ter. Both hospitals are served by corps of physicians and surgeons, mostly rather young, but able, ambi tious and studious. One mighty good thing the French company did was to establlah a sani tarium on Taboga Island, and tha Americans, recognizing its value, promptly reopened it for the benefit of white convalescents. These may remain on the pretty island for two weeks, paying $2 a day for room, board and medical attention. Taboga lies twelve miles due south of Panama and Is as attractive a trop ical Isle as one will often see. Its curving white beaches in little bays are ideal bathing places; Its lofty hills, clad with dense vegetation, af* ford occupation for the climber, and the small fishing village of Taboga is ancient and not 'uninteresting. Gor geous birds and flowers and luscious fruits are everywhers. Nothing more perfectly beautiful can be imagined than an evening on the grassy slopes of the sanitarium grounds. myriad stars glitter overhead, the Southern Cross and Canopus swinging above the southern horizon. In the forest night birds sing and a variety of tree locust sends forth a clear, musical note that can be heard a mile. In the little public square of the village the native women and children are laugh ing and singing as the men set forth on all-night fishing trips. And oft to the north, this side of the glow of Panama, wlnlc the light buoys of the canal's sea channel. If in later years Taboga does not become a favorite winter resort for wealthy Americans, I shall miss my guess. TOOK ON DIFFERENT ASPECT Somehow Antics of Playful Pupa on Bocond Morning Did Not Appaal to Mr. Knox. The morning was young and beau tiful end Mr. Knox stood at the side window and looked over into tha next yard interestedly. He chuckled for sheer delight as he watched the antics of two little pups hla neighbor had bought a few days before. "Oh, Amy, come here and see these pups, over in Porter's yard," he called to Mrs. Knox, who waa busily ar ranging the breakfast table. "Aren't they just having a circus? Bless 'em!" he went on, with all the effusiveness of a genuine dog lover. "Oh, look, Amy, they have taken ftie morning pa per off the porch and each one has an end of it in his mouth, tussling with It. Is there anything in the world more cunning than a little pup?" His enthusiasm waa running away with him. "1 think, dearie, we will have to get a dog one of these days." The next morning Mr. Knox arose, dressed and went down to bring in the morning paper, as was his habit. He was just in time to see the cunning | little pups next door playfully tearing his paper Into shreds and each vanish ing around the house with a portion of it. He catne back to the kitchen sullenly. "Those blankety blang dogs next -door have torn up the paper," he said, wtih no trace of his earlier enthusi asm. No. SIX-SIXTY-SIX This is a prescription prepared es pecially for Malaria or Chills and Fover.

I washed my scalp with warm water strong with the Cuticura Soap and dried, afterwards applying tho Cuti cura Ointment, working It in the scalp slowly with my Angers.
