What is Spring Fever
It is simply lack of Energy and low Vitality caused
by impurities in the blood.
Grove’
ve's
Tasteless chill Tonic
restores Energy and Vitality by creating new healthy
blood. When you feel its streugthening, invigorating
effect, see how it brings color to the cheeks and how
it improves the appetite, you will then appreciate
its true tonic value.
GROVE'S TASTELESS Chill TONIC is not a patent
medicine. It is simply IRON and QUININE sus
pended in Syrup. So pleasant even children like it.
The Quinine and Iron does not dissolve in the syrup
and, therefore, does not make the syrup bitter. You
do not taste the bitter Quinine and you do not
taste the Iron because both are completely covered
with syrup when swallowed.
Your system needs Quinine to Purify the Blood and
Iron to Enrich it. These good old reliable tonic
properties never fail to drive out impurities in the
bloed, and when you have rich, pure blood coursing
through your veins, you feel like running, jumping
and shouting. The Spring Fever soon disappears.
GROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC is acceptable
to the most delicate stomach and does not cause
nervousiiess or ringing in the head. Price 60c.

BETTER HEALTH
FOR NATION 13
BLUE'S PLAN
By WINFIELD JONES.
Washington Corruipondent of The
Georgian,
WASHINGTON, May 26.-—-Surgeon
General Victor Blue, ot the public
health service, is preparing to present
to Congress a big, comprehensive plan
to improve the national health, which,
it is bhelleved if carried out by Con
gress and the service, will greatly
better the average health condition
of the country. Y
. Some Congressmen say that it is
}llh(- the public health service is do
ing something to improve the health
of the country generally, inagmuch as
the service let the influenza epidemic
into the United Stateés, a plague that
has killed hundreds of thousands of
persons in the last year and injured
the health of hundreds of thousands
of others who contracted the disease
but escaped death,
The public health service is ready,
with a program for the extension of
its work in all parts of the country,
and if this program is adopted and
receives the necessary support from
Congress the health of the people of
the United States should improve
year by year.
Plan to Use $2,000,000.
Surgeon General Blue will make a
request for appropriations of approx
imately $2,000000 to get the health
program under way. The appropria
tions for the public health service
are carried in the sundry civil appro
priation bill, one of the supply meas
ures which failed, along with five
others, in the legislative jam last
March 4. llf he can find an entering
wedge, it is his purpose when the
new Congress meets to get the pro
gram approved and have the appro
priations inserted in the bill.
Take the case of malarial fever
alone. It is estimated that there are
between 6,000,000 and 8,000,000 cases
of malarial fever & year in this
country. Malaria is a preventable
disease. It has been clearly demcn
strated that it is. Placing the aver
age number of cases at 7,000,000 a
year and figuring that 30 per cent
of the cases take producing men
and women from their work for an
average of ten days each, it will be
easy to see what a loss the country.
sustaing from an economical stand
point, because malaria, a preventable
disease, is allowed to continue. 'The
total number of days of labor lost
would be 21,000,000, a tremendous toll
taken by malaria from the productive
powers of the American people.
Need for Sanitation. ]
With the coming of peace it is
more than ever necessary to provide
for adequate sanitation. .
One of the principal features of the
public health ‘service program is child
conservation. In this country 20 per!
cent of all the deaths are of infants
undeér 2 years of age. A very large
percentage of these children’'s deaths.
are preventable if there is propér san
itary care of the bables, clean food
and the proper education of the par
ents in the care of children.
Thmublio health oficlals have fig
ures ich show that due to sporadic
efforts made in this country to im
prove the conditions for babies from
1910 to 1915 there was a reduction in
the death rate of children under 5
years of age amounting to 174 1-2 per
100,000. In other words, in a pop
ulation of 100,000,000 people, chlldron;
saved from death from preventable
diseases, including typhoid, tubercu
losis, diphtheria, croup and diarrheal
diseases, totaled 174,500 a year.
To Build Organization.
It is not the purpose of the public
health service to rush immediately
into the expenditure of huge sums of
public money. They must buillda up
an organization. Nor do they propose
that the Federal Government, through
the publie health service, shall usurp
the State rights and police powers,
They propose to build up a great
service which shall demonstrate to
the States and lead them among the
right paths for preservation of health.
The public health service stations,
laboratories and hospitals are to be a
great clearing house of information
for the use of the local authorities in
the States.
Take & look at the program out
lined by the public health Service,
which is understood to have the ap
proval of the President., It is intend
ed to meet after-the-war needs, and it
is emphasized by the public health of
ficials that the success of this pro
gram will depend upon the active co
operation of the Federal, State and
local health authorites.
The program is divided into fifteen
main heads. These maln heads are:
1. Industrial hygiene. 2. Rural hy
glene. 3. Prevention of disease of
infancy and childhood. 4. National
development of safe water supplies.
5. Mational development of safe milk
supplies. 6. Sewage disposal. 7. Ma
laria. & Venereal diseases. 9 Tu
berculosis. 10, Railway sanitation.
11. Municipa! sanitation. 12. Health
star,dards. 13, Health education. 14,
Collection of morbidity reports. 15.
Organlzation and training for duty in
emergency of the reserve of the pub
lic health service, the establishment
of which was authorized by Congress
as a war measure,
The surgeon general estimates that
in order to carry this program into
effect there will have to be added to
the personnel of the service 843 of
ficers and agents.

It Doesn't Say S

But We Suppose She
Can Use the Car, Too
Atlanta housewives who get
breakfast and dinner themselves,
permitting their maids to stroll in
about 9 o'clock and leave at 2 or 3
o'clock in the afternoon, have felt all
along that they were doing every
thing possible to make things nice
and homelike for the hardworking
servant giris, but they are due a
rude awakening. There are a lot of
little courtesies they have néver
even thought of. For Ins&tance, the
following, offered in the classified
department of The News in Sa
lem, Mass.:
GIRL WANTED: One who is a
good, plain cook with ¢onsiderable
experience. Family of three people,
where another girl is Kept and a
man doeg the heavy work in house
cleaning. Kitchen is large, light
and pleasant-—cool in summer and
warm in winter, with awnings. The
kitechen has every modern conven
lence, no coal fires to build, plenty
of steaming hot water. Malds’ rooms
are good size, well furnished, sunny,
gteam-heated, electric lights, and
there is a private bath for them.
Also the maids have a sitting room
near the kitchen. One night and
afternoon out every week and ev
ery other Sunday afternoon and
night off. No late meals. In fif
teen years four girle have left the
family to get married. The one
now leaving is also to get married.
Nearly all of the work, for the new
girl is in the kitchen, being prac
tically the cook. Good wages and
a permanent home assured.
