AYbat do the men occupy themselves with In the prison camps? How arc they treated? Are they well fed and otherwise well cared for? These and similar ques tions have occupied the attention. of the governments of those captured, the thoughts of the relatives whose men are held In foreign lands as well as the deep interest of neutral nations. Unlike In other wars, when only two nations were Involved, this great con flict has made necessary the main tenance of prison camps all over the world.

MOTHER REMEDY FOR S Children's Bumps, Sprains and Minor Hurts Quickly Relieved by Sloan's Liniment It is the very nature of children to hurt themselves to come crying to moiner with little fingers bruised, with heads bumped, with sprained anklea and wrists. They are painful hurts, too. But their pain and sting can't survive the gentle use of this liniment. A single application of Sloan's Liniment and the little fellow's bravely kept back tears give way to smiles. His hurt is relieved. In every home where there are chil dren a bottle of Sloan's Liniment is a necessity. Aching muscle?, rheumatism, lum bago, still neck, backache, chilblains, etc., can be effectively relieved with Sloan's Liniment. Cleaner than mussy ointments or plasters.

Thus Germany, for In stance, is said to hold nearly 2.O0O.0C0 prisoners, whose care presents a se rious problem. The same counts for England and France. The charges of mistreatment of prisoners have engag ed the attention of neutral nations, the diplomatic: representatives of which have been permitted to inspect various prison camps in order that they might see with their own eyes and iuake re ports to the world at large. A 'volume of Impartial testimony to the excellence of arrangements made for the well being of prisoners of war Interned in England' Is contained In a series of reports made to the American ambassador in London by members of the embassy staff who have during the last few months paid. visit's of inspec tion to various internment camps In the United Kingdom. The report were Issued recently ns a parliamentary pa per, says the London Times. The detailed re 'rts. .made after vis its to twenty-thn-e amps, k'::iw hnvy thoroughly the visitors i'lvo.-v ::g:;;-ed the conditions vmder which tUe'-.u'.'is'-nei's are.' living; and the -vc. Jlc. i.r -bichly rsatlsfactory. As-wos to be cr-peie;!. "jiey fecefved v i some of the Intent o'liccr- ni l men but n few -'cases did llicy thu! thr complrints of a serious V!::uacter. Where there appeared to them gocd t ground for criticism the cafes were J taken tup either with the war office or : the camp -commandants, and the au thorities showed a general' disposition to remove the cnuses of comjdalnt. In many instain cs the Inspectors re cord Improvements I:i camp conditions since their previous visits, and in a few cases they suggest further Im provements. On the whole, however, their reports are remarkably free from criticism, and they pay repeated trib utes to the excellence of the food, the sanitary and hospital arrangements and the facilities for work, exercise and recreation. Committees of Prisoners. Most of the camps are largely run by committees chosen by the Interned men themselves, and in the larger camps the organization Is of an elab orate character. At Knockaloe, near Teel. where over 20,000 men are In terned the visitors found that there were relief and kitchen committees, recreative ball committees, a prisoners' aid society, gymnasium, sports, indus trial, educational, library, musical and dramatic committees, all chosen by the prisoner, as well aa a sick and burial , solute control over the management ol the house, the only thing done by the British" staff being to pay the montbiy bills." The officers give much time to the study of '-languages, particularly Spnn Ish. At Frongoch, liear Bala, with ti'.'O prisoners, there are fifty -five classes for languages, electricity, engineering, drawing, gardening, and So ou,'and the visitors report that In a studio excel lent work Is done in portrait and land scape painting und sculpture. At the, Scottish, internment camp at Stobs a "board' of justice." elected by the prisoners, settles disputes among the inmates ''by. apology or otherwise." The prisoners at bcveral of the camps go on route inarches two tr three times a Week. "In one case a camp newspa per is prod med. In another 85 per cent ore .engaged in work. Some cut their comrades' li1i, and some wash clothes; oth;vs nnUe watches, -..brooms and boots, and n doctor and more than one dentist -look after the health of their fellov j-r's i.;-rs. Life In. the "rrman, prison camps is not all hardships fur the hosts of al lied soldiers vrl.o have fallen into the hands of their opponents, nccording to TJErauri1reTsfveivkT"a in the Swiss hospital corps, who went to Germany last winter as a member of the Swiss hospital roiamission and i spent four weeks there inspecting prls-1 on camps, principally hi Westphalia. Hesse and Lorraine. Dr. I'relswerk recently cleliveied an address iu Basel on the Gen-iftii prison ramps, which is quoted as follows'. In t he German press: "The camps In t'vlr arrangement follow the well known plans of the German camps for maneuvers and general encampments. The barracks, with the exception of tbose built by the Russians, which are partly sunk In the ground, are all uniform. Germans Feed Prisoners Well. "Regarding the prisoners' food, the cooking is done on a company and bat talion scale. The chief cook is an eld erly German noncommissioned officer, with some French assistants. The food is well prepared in fact, the method of Its preparation might be designated as a model for the Swiss soldiers' kitchens. Although the cost of feed ing the prisoners Is not high, the quantify la quite enough. The Rus sians have enormous appetites, bat the Preach and English do not dvour all that Is placed before them. The rea son for this la to be found In the large , numbers f gifts that are sent to the men especially to the French, from home. Many prefer to Hit oa these dainty consignments, which, however, constitute a cause of stomach and in testinal Illnesses. . Each prisoner la allowed to send two letters and four cards a month. "The working conditions are favor able. There Is enough work In the camp Itself for a large portion of the prisoners. S altered groups In charge of landsturm men eave in the morn ing Jn order to find employment on the various works of land reclamation and do not ret urn to the camp until even ing. Ablebodied men who are not thought likely to try to escape are also employed individually by the farmers, and they enjoy great freedom. Those who arc not able to work or are able to do only hr.lf a task are not quite so fortunate. They are sometimes em ployed at light Jobs around the camp or, after sufficient training, put at of fice work. The hardest problem Is the finding of appropriate work for the col ored element. The Russians work well on the land if they receive the proper 'fodder,' while tho French are very handy at factory work. Prevention of Disease. "Great care Is taken to prevent epi demics. Every new arrival Is Isolated for four, sometimes six. weeks. There he is thoroughly cleaned up and vac cinated. At least one. bath must be takeji every week, something which In the case of the Russians always seems to be n great and uncommon event. After this isolation the prisoners are brouKht into tho camp. In cases of bad behavior a change of camps is an effi cacious means of punishment. Tho -hospitals of the prison camps are fitted out according to the standard, and some of thorn are better than some cantonal hospitals In Switzerland. "The ollicers' prison camps are also fitted out strictly eccording to military regulations, the prisoners the camps. Variety is afforded by lit tie walks which thev-are allowed ti take .a couple of times n week, uecom panied by landsturni men. It is under standiible that an officer In caiHivlti sutlers more mentally than a common soldier. In the officers' camps some five or six ollicers are quartered in a room. They drive tedium away "by means of music, reading and games. Some also have little flower gardens. "Alcoholic beverages are delivered In only moderate quantities. Neverthe less the Russians know how, by means of several of them refraining from drinking at alt for a fixed number of times In succession, to supply one an other with good sized quantities of al cohol and with a little carouse." Dr. Trelswerk concluded that the re aponslble authorities did not willfully neglect anything calculated to help the prisoners. How about your subscription!
