"Me Und"Takes No Chances in Belgium

LONDON, Jan. 1. Correspondence of The Associated Press. So closely is the German Emperor guarded when he travels by rail through Belgium that his movements are kept even from the railroad officials handling his train up to the last possible moment, according to a correspondent of the Chronicle, who has several times witnessed the emperor's arrival. "Whenever the passage of the imperial train is to take place the fact Is not known to the chief railway official until the spme day, and to his subordinates not until a quarter of an hour before the arrival," the correspondent Rays. "In the station the lines are all kept free." Describing one such arrival of the emperor's train the correspondent says: "All workmen, on this occasion, whether Belgian or German, were dispatched outside, and access to the station was forbidden. This applied to all passengers as well. The military guards occupying parts of the station and environs were ordered to leave their posts and pile their arras; The cnly persons allowed on the platforms were the station master, his employes appointed to work the signals and the military chief. There was no guard of honor, no manifestation whatever. "This clearing of the station takes place at every station through which the train passes, which it does at the maximum regulation speed. At Brussels detrainment took place opposite the Place Rogler, which is a military post since the occupation. "The space in front of the station, which is always forbidden ground to passengers, was occupied by several motor cars. As soon as the emperor entered his car the small fleet ran swiftly to the Pare Rue Royale, where the kaiser stayed several hours.

-Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) Is a girl of seventeen years too young to bbe engaged and should a ring be the sign of the engagement? (2) If a girl finds out some unsatisfactory things about the mother of a young man with whom she is In love

6hould she still keep his company? (3) Should a girl go with a boy who acts perfectly proper with her though others talk 111 of him? (4) If a girl is acquainted with a boy , in another town, is it proper for her to write though she has never seen him? (3) There are several boys in this town who are very a 1 1 r a c ti ve looking and we

, would use 10 nave

a close friendship with them. What thall we do? "YOURS RESPECTFULLY." (1) A girl of seventeen is too young to be engaged, and a ring is a sign of engagement. (2) It is the character of the young man that should count and you must not condemn him because of things you hear about his mother. (3) A girl should not go with a boy unless he has recognized character instead of a bad reputation. (4) It would be better not to write to the boy since you do not know him. (5) Do not seek close friendship with the boys; let them seek you. Dear Mrs. Thompson: (4) I am a girl sixteen years old and I-had a fall-out with one of my college chums, and it was all my fault. I would like to regain his friendship and have asked to be forgiven, but ' he has laughed in my face. Would you advise me to ask him to forgive me again, or how would you regain his friendship? (2) Am I old enough to have some of my boy and girl chums call on me and go with them places if two or three couples go? (3) How late should a girl stay out with a' boy at night, and is it all right to go to more than one show if he insists? (4) One of my friends is going to give me1 an expensive present for Christmas. Should I accept it? PUZZLED ONE. (1) Do not ask again to be forgiven. Since the boy has laughed in your face it is his turn to beg forgiveness. Put him entirely out of your mind. You are too young to worry because you have lost the friendship of one boy. (2) It is all right to have boy and

girl friends come to your home, and for you to go to their homes, but you should not stay late In- the -evening. You are too young to go to shows and dances with them or anything of that sort. ' (3) One show Is certainly all. that a girl of your age, should attend tin one evening. . .. . . (4) Do not let a boy give you an expensive Christmas gift. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have very sore joints on my feet that seem almost like bunions. What would you advise me to do for them? Can they be cured? MRS. SMITH. Joint trouble can be cured if the right care is taken of the feet, which, of course, means that shoes must be worn that fit. Paint the sore joints with iodine and the pain will be relieved to a great extent. Then get shoes with a straight last which are not too pointed and narrow. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can you recommend anything for brittle finger nails? My finger nails are so brittle that they break as soon as they get any length. I have been rubbing cold cream into them every night, but it doesn't seem to do any good. CINNTHA ANN. Rub some vaseline on . the nails every night and then wash it off in the morning.

Tuberculosis Sanatorium Also Offers Hope of Cure to Plague Victims. In 1913 the city of Lewiston, Maine, hsd a saia of Red Cross Christmas seals od thns raised a small fund for tuberculosis work. The city did not know exactly what to do with the money, for it had not given much thooght to the prob !e. But a progressive public health nurse saw an opportunity she had long looked for. She advised that tbe sum be ict aside until it could be added to by another stamp sa'e. The following year the people redoubled their interest. The fund grew and was added to by contributions. In 1918 the nurse reported to .the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tubercolos's that cround bad been boujht for a sanatorium with funds raised largely by Red Cross Christmas teals. - Last September the sanatorium was pened. - Lewis ton is only one of thousands of ommunities where the tuberculosis movement has originated with the sale of Red , Cross Christmas seals. It is estimated that approximately ninety per cent of the .support for the tuberculosis educational movement comes from the sale of the Christmas stickers. Much of the money thus collected is used to erect and maintain sanatoria until the city or county 's ready to take them over. The sanatorium Is literally a haven tf rest to the tuberculous man and woman. It offers them a chance to get well, far from the responsibilities of home. It pro T!!J??!?ic"i n.urin car 00,i fd

and the opportunity to seek restoration in

the open air. Tbe change acts miracu lously upon mind and body. .

One of the reasons -the sanatorium is regarded as so important by those who

are fighting tuberculosis is that it is a great preventive agency. Every patient

becomes a oupil. learning how to care for himself and others. The tuberculous mother is prevented from infecting her

own children and is taught how to protect them when she goes back home. The tnberculoos man is impressed with the fact that if be is careless be will pass on the disease to others. It is by thus segregating the active cases that the greatest strides are made in checking the spread of the disease. . In 1D03 there were only one hundred sanatoria in the country. To-day, after a campaign of eleven years, there are 550 of these institutions where those suffering with the disease can receive treatment under expert medical supervision. Further than that, a large number of these institutions are annually increasing their bed capacity.

Eut there are not nearly enough to take care of the thousands of new cases. The National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis is emphasizing this need in connection with the sale of Red Cross Christmas seals. As a measure of national safety it states that hospitals and sanatoria for moderate and advanced cases must be established. There must be provision for the victims of tbe disease who are being sent home from training camps. "We must face the fact that tuberculosis is a war disease." says'a member of the association. "Many men will break down under the rigors of camp life ; others will come back from the trenches victims of consumption. "Money is needed to save America from the tragic fate of tuberculosis ridden France. Sanatoria must be in readiness to receive discharged soldiers and to care for members of their families who are infected. "The easiest and the surest way to raise money for them is by the sale et ReJ Cross Christmas seals."

Bread From Small Potatoes Use One-Third Potatoes and Save Millions of Bushels of Wheat By P. G. HOLDEN - '

THERE are nearly 120,000,000 bushels of small potatoes wasted in the United States every year, all of which could be used In making bread. This enormous waste of potatoes. takes place on tbe, farms. In the markets, and in the homes; but the burden of the waste falls upon the grower and the merchant. In large provision centers where thousands of carloads of potatoes are annually handled, small potatoes are generally thrown away. In the grocery stores In cities and small towns all overthe country and even In the homes- of the people, immense quantities of smull potatoes are wasted. On the farms and. in the truck gardens small potatoes are as a, rule not gathered, but left to rot on the ground. Why not make use of these potatoes? It cost time, labor, money and soil fertility to grow them, and the grower cannot eliminate the small potatoes from his crorj. If tte must grow them why not save them? ... Many millions of bush

els of wheat badly needed by our allies in the war caa in this way be saved. Substitute these small potatoes for onethird the wheat flour used In making bread. The bread, vdll be as nutritious and more palatable. Potato bread retains Its moisture and good flavor longer yian' wheat bread. Potatoes are grown practically in every state In the Union and enter into the daily diet of every family the year around. No other vegetable is so generally grown and so generally used as human food. The potato crop of 1917 was about 450,000,000 bushels. Potatoes can be easily kept in pits and root cellars, and there is no reason why this tremendous waste should take place. The need oi saving them is made greater by the fact that

they can be used to save wheat, the onei grain crop so greatly needed for export. Save the small potatoes. Save the "culls." Use them in making bread or biscuit. Housewives will find It a source of household economy. Bakers will find it profitable, as they can often secure potatoes discarded by grocers or commission houses at a very low price. How to Make Potato Bread : Ingredients 2-3 cup sweet milk ;1 cup potato ; 2 cups flour; 1 teaspoon salt; 1 teaspoon sugar; yeast cake. These measurements make one loaf. Heat milk to boiling point, then cool to lukewarm. Bake or boil potatoes, then peel and mash or put through ricer.
