Pellagra and Income.
After a three-year study of pellagra
in the cotton-mill villages of South
Carolina, the United States public
health service shows that pellagra
varies inversely with the family in
come in this locality. As the income
fell the disease was found to increase
and to affect more members of the
same family. As the income rose the
disease decreased, and was rarely
found -in families that enjoyed the
highest incomes, even though this
highest was still quite low.
A recent statement given by one of
the large life insurance companies in:
dicates that the food standards of
Southern wage earners must have im
proved remarkably of late, for the
death rate from pellagra has fallen
from 6.7 per 100,000 in 1915 to 2.3 in
1910,
Much Gasoline Wasted,
About one-third of the gasoline used
in automobiles is wasted. This is the
conclusion reached by A. C. Fieldner
of the United States bureau of mines,
from experiments under traffic condi
tions to determine the air pollution of
the vehicular tunnels under New York
city. The waste is chiefly due to too
rich gasoline mixture. It is estimated
that an improved and practically au
tomatic carburetor might save Ameri
can auotmobilists $34,000,000 a year.

To Kill Wood Borers In Lumber. ‘
Kiln drying is fatal to some if not
all the wood-boring grubs, the forest
service laboratory of the United
States Department of Agrculture at
Madisen, Wis., has discovered. This
fact Is of considerable importance to
users of ash.. hickory, and many other
woods which are attacked by insects.
Manufacturers using ash lumber, for
instance, are much. annoyed by the
Injury worked by the red-headed ash
borer. Afr seasoning has no effect
on the activities of these grubs, but,
according to tests made by the labor
atory on wood Infested with them, any
kiln-drying proeess which can be con
sidered practical for seasoning ash'
of any thickness will put an end to
the borers. .
It Stands to Reason.
The other day a downtown prinei
pal summoned before her two young
sters who had been guilty of fight
ing another boy. After proving
their guilt, she tuined the husky
looking youngster over her knee and
administered a good, old-fashioned
spankirg. DBut at the otlier one she
hesitated. She voiced her reason
to a teacher stauding near: “I hate
to whip him. He's so thin and sick
ly looking,” she said,
The chunky culprit overheard her
speech. “I guess eriminals can be
skinny as well as fat,” he sobbed ac
cusingly.

DEMAND FOR PLAYING-CARDS
\
Manufacturers Rcport a Tremendous
| Increase in Their Use, Mostly in
Private Families,
- There has heen a tremendous in
crease in the use of playing cards in
private families within the last 20
years in this country, the representa
tive of a big American card-manufac
turing house says in the New York
Times. It may seem strange, but it is
the private family that does most of
the using of cards. The proportion of
playing-cards used in the big clubs is
small, There is an average of from
two to three packs of playing-cards
used per family each year in the
United States, it is estimated, which
is a big percentage of the total.
Men's clubs absorh the higher-priced
cards, which are sold at prices vary
ing, according to the club, from $1 to
$1.50 or $2 per pack. The government
tax on cards since 1917, which was
raised last year to 8 cents per pack,
with increased cost of production, has
practically driven the cheaper cards
out of the market, and business has
gone to the higher grades, which re
tail at from 30 to 75 cents. The in
creased playing of bridge has brought
into vogue the narrower card, which is
more graceful in shape, smatler and a
little less bulky.
The bulk of the cards sold have a
simple standard design for the back
Among those the upest liked in the
better class are the ones with the fine
steel-engraved or “banknote” back, en
graved with the Ilathework design.
These come in the four colors and now

'GREAT VICTORY FOR SCIENCE
| o
Cure Said to Be Assured for the
| World’s Greatest Scourge, the
i Plague of Leprosy.
The news from Hawaii indlecates
that science has at last found the sure
and systemiatic wav to the cure of this
world's most appalling disease, Of the
142 former lepers who have been pa
roled iron' the Kalibi hospital in the
last two years none has been sent
back.
It is pecuiiar that the plague which
has troubled the world at least sixty
centuries, and probably much longer.
should eventually be conirolled by one
of the oldest remedies ever used for
it. To modern science is due the dis
covery of the bacillus of leprosy, but
its cure is accomplished with refined
chaulmoogra oil, the essence of an In
dian plum, which has been used by
lepers in the East for centuries.
Science has improved on native prac
tice not only in the oil but in its appli
cation.
To a world which has 3,000,000 lep
ers the success of the doctors at
Kalili is heartening. China, when bet
ter days come, can set about the cure
of her 2,000,000 stricken. India has
200,000 lepers, Japan 20,000. And the
United States has had a big leper prob
lem which the developments in Hawaii
should soon solve. While the cases of
leprosy in the continental United
States are few-—perhaps not 30g—we’
have thousands of lepers in our island
possessions, particularly the Philip
pines. Now that the way is clear our
wedical service can go ahead there as
it has proceeded in Hawaii.
Optimistic Thought.
