Considerable Attention is Arrested by the Deaths In Greater .e j York from Infantile Paralysis j While North Carolina Lost Motr Than K.OtX) Children Under Two Vears in DM 1 Ignorance the Cause. I'niversity News Letter. The total deaths trom Infantile pa- j raljsis In Greater New York are at this writing 1,200. And the city is profoundly exercised about this dread scourge. The public school will not be opened on time in Sep tember. Their doors have been s.iuc in the faces of boo.ooo pupils and teachers. Here is a tragedy massive, mys terious, spectacular, and appealing. Everybody's attention is arrested ay it. On the other band, the death roil of little children under two yean or age in North Carolina in 19 14 from various causes was 8,311. and in 1915 the number that died under one year of age was 6,807. The stroke of the clock every hour of the day and night tolls the death of a helpless little child ia North Carolina. And the horrible thing about It is that three-fifths of these children died from preventable causes or from diseases that could have been cured by prompt, intelligent care and attention. The blood of these children cries against the ignorance of devoted but untrained mothers and fathers in loving homes. Doctors Rankin, Cooper and Booker in Raleigh, and Miss Iithrop and Dr. Bredley of the Children's Bureau are lighting like fighting lire to (enter attention upon the neeu less death of little children; but this heirt-brenking tragedy in North Car olina and the country at large falls to he massive and spectacular like the sinking of the Titanic or tne l.'.iMland in Chicago or the epidemic now raging in (Ireater New York. I 1 ' die. one here and one there, in the lapse of the year, that's all. The i ublic mind is quite undisturbed a Itout it. King Herod slaughtered fewer than twenty infants in Bethlehem. ;iml the world is still shivering with the horror of it. Hut King: Ignorance slaughters some six thousand little chjjldren ui; iler two years of age every year in North Carolina. The Lord took them, we say. Yes, but. We sent them, says Crosby.

TODAY'S POEM LKT SOMETHING GOOD BK HA ID, When over the fair name of a friend or foe The shadow of disgrace should fall, instead Of words of blame or proof of thus and so, Let something good be Bald. Forget that no fellow mortal yet May fall so low but love may lift V his head : Even the cheek of shame with tears . Is wet If something good be said. ' No generous heart may vainly turn aside V In ways of sympathy; no soul SO dead But may awaken strong and glori fied. If something good be said. f And so I charge thee, by the thorny ' crown. And by the cross on which the Sav ior bled, , And by your own soul's hope of fair renown. Let something good be said. James Whitcomb Rll. , DON'T LET YOUR SUBSCRIP TION TO THE GAZETTE EXPIRE.

Dean, Taunton, Mass In her 87th year, says: "I thoug-ht I was beyond the reach of medicine, but Foley Kidney Pills have proven most beneficial in ray case." Mr. Sam A. Hoover, High Point, N. C, writes: "11 r kidney trouble was worse at night ar.d I bad to get up from five to seven, times. Now I do not have to get up at night, and con sider myself in a truly normal con dition, which I attribute to Foley Kid ney Pills, as 1 have taken notliior ele." Mrs. M. A. BrHges, Robinson. Maas, sa-s: "I suffered from kidney ail ments for two year. 1 commenced taking Foley Kidr.ty Pills ten months ago, and though I sn 01 years of ag I feel like a 16-year -M grirL" Foley Kidney Tills are tonlti; strengthening and up-building, and restore normal net ton to the kidneys and to a disordered and painful blad- der.
