Where the Army
Blanket Fails
By DR. SAMUEL G. DIXON
Commissioner of Health of Pennsylvania.
United States army blankets tire not
economical for private or permanent
hospital use. For
the reader to ful
ly appreciate this
criticism he must
disabuse his mind
of a common fal
lacy that the pur
pose of blankets
arid clothing is
to give heat off
to the body.
Blankets and
preventing it from being
taken off by the general atmosphere.
Therefore, you want blankets soft and
pliable so that they will full of their
own weight and tit snugly to the body,
so as to prevent the air from circulat
ing between the blanket and the body.
The army blanket Is woven so close
ly and becomes so rigid when thrown
over the body that it fails to fall in
close, but stands out and permits an
air space between itself and the body.
/This interferes with its heat-retaining 1
qualities to the extent that after prac
tical application in our large hospitals
in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania
we And in the cold high mountain re
gions we can get along with three soft
er woven blankets instead of having
to use five army blankets.
With this discovery and practical ap
plication we not only save much money
in maintaining our hospitals, but we
give our patients more comfort. The
blankets are warmer and at the same
time are lighter in weight.
The army blanket was made original
ly so that It would he strong and could
be used in active campaigns, where it
bad to be carried on the soldiers’'
backs, or on saddles of horses, or in
the supply wagon. Owing to the fact
(hat they were made of all wool, had
long lives, and were made in a sub
stantial way. they soon found their
way into general use, particularly in
to hospital use, and more especially
into hospitals where the open-air treat
inent was necessary.

Fewer lives were lost in Ameri- ’
can coal mines during 1 9 1 G than 1
in any year during the last ten. i
notwithstanding the fact that <nore
men were employed during the
year than ever before . and more
coal was mined. The number of
mine -workers aggregated over
350.000. it is said: those killed bv
accident averaged less than three
and one-half to every thousand

One of the things that people
should avoid is breathing through
the mouth, says a -well-known
physical instructor. We need filt
ered air just as we need filtered
water and the nose is our filter.
When the nostrils are stopped up
they may be cleared out by simply
cleansing ablutions. Persons
should not cross the legs, this, au
thority also advises, for every time
one does so the circulation of the
blood is retarded and this puts a
strain on the heart. *

Croup
“Granny” Chamberlain
“I don't think there is a more anxious
time for parents than when their children
have croup. Without they ar<5 prepared
with Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy they
must wait for the doctor and listen to the
choking, metallic cough and watch their
little one gasping for breath.
You know the great danger of croup
is the formation of a false membrane in the larynx, and until this
is expelled relief cannot be obtained, and the spasmodic choking
continues. Give Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy :n frequent doses.
It will loosen this membrane and catkse the child to expel it by
vomiting.
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
is an absolutely safe and certain remedy for croup, and if given
as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy
cough appears, it will prevent the attack.”

With the approach of the extra
session of'congress, to convene at
Washington April 2, Southern lum
ber interests have once more be
gun to turn their attenten toward
the passage of the Webb bill, pro
viding for the organization of ex
port soling agencies, which may
be brought forward this time as a
war measure, as indicated in the
president's excoriation of the sen
ate filibusters in his recent state
ment. The president insists on
the necessity of this measure being
enacted into law, not only because
of its important bearing on the na
tion’s pres'ent critical situ
ation. but because it will be indis
pensable adjunct to American
foreign commerce when the war
has ended in Europe.
