Britain and France are making all their preparations for continuing the war upon a two-year basis. Army and navy officers from the allied countries disclosed this fact in their various conferences conferences with American officials, and it is now possible to refer to the fact since Daniel Willard, in addressing the Interstate Commerce Commission "recently, stated that he had been advised advised as to the two-year basis for war preparations. This-does not mean, however, that the war will go on for two years. As the strategists explain it, both Britain and France, when the war began, plunged all their resources into the struggle without reckoning as to the future. They found that under this plan of staking everything on a few months, there was danger that-- the resources of the Allies soon would be exhausted. They then began to make all preparations for a two-year war. This year they are still preparing for two more years, and if the war should last until next year, they will plan for twoumore. The United States has now adopted the same strategic plan: x ■ ♦:* r „ THIS TROUBLE w FRUiT-A-TIVES " -- The Wonderful Fruit Médiane -- will Protect You Autointoxication means self-poisoning, self-poisoning, caused: by continuous or partial constipation, or insufficient action of the bowels.

Qne class of cases in which-orange juice is almost indispensable'is those most unfortunate and suffering" of mortals--the-bottle-fed babies. Usually Usually fed . on pasteurized or sterilized milk, thesé unhappy little ones seldom"' fail to show marked evidence of malnutrition malnutrition . They are, indeed, not infrequently infrequently victims of scurvy;'rickets or pellagra. The investigations;; of Funk, McCollum ^nd many others have shown that the emaciation, weakness, weakness, arrest of growth and' general malnutrition in such cases is due to absence from their food of the essential essential "vitamines." À few years ago the fortunate discovery discovery was made that orange juice contains elements needed. to supple- unent the bottle-fed baby's dietary, resulting dn immediate resumption of growth and a speedy return to health. This remarkable transformation may occur not only in human infants, but in young animals . upon whom the orange-juice feeding experiment has been often repeated. Every infant fed on sterilizd milk or artificial infant foods--in fact, every infant fed from a nursing bottle--and other children who are not doing well should receive daily not less than four ounces- of orange juice to supply necessary vitamines. 1 TOOL-MAKING IS POPULAR.

A snake's method of swallowing is almost automatic; the internal mechanism mechanism begins its work as soon as the reptile takes the food into its mouth. In his book, Of Distinguished Animals, Animals, Mr. H. Perry Robinson relates an extraordinary incident that occurred occurred a few years ago-*at the London Zoological Gardens. - The attendants put soriie pigeons into a cage occupied by two boas, one ten feet long, the'other a foot shorter. In the night* the larger snake seized a pigeon, and hisTiriate unfortunately selected selected the same bird. The tip of the smaller boa's Wse was drawn into the mouth of the other together with the pigeon, and after it the rest of the snake continued to go, although the eater must have been surprised at the almost intolerable Length of what it had believed to be an ordinary pigeon. Thé next morning only one of the snakes was visible. Its enormously distended body no logger ■ had the power of coiling, but remained stretched stretched to its full length in. a straight line, and appeared to be at least 'three times its normal circumference. It, was almost painful to see .tire tightened tightened skin, which had serrated ; the scales all oyer the middle of the bbdy. Twenty-eight days: later the sna*ke not only digested its. companion, but had regained its appetite as well as its normal size, arid it immediately swallowed a pigeon put into its den.

Snoring or breathing noisily during sleep is common. It is also very disagreeable disagreeable so fàr as other people are concerned. The causes of snoring are many. ** In the adult it 'is often due to excessive fatigue. The. patient lies on his back with the mouth open and the tongue then x drops backward. This interferes with the free passage of air to the lungs and causes snoring. In fact, in nearly all cases snoring is caused by mouth breathing. In children, mouth breathing is •6ften the result of enlarged tonsils, adenoids, nasal polypi, etc. Other causes in both young and old are enlargement"of enlargement"of the bones forming the air passages, of the nose, so-called hypertrophy of .some of the thin bones forming, the nasal passages, or fracture of some of these bones with the displacement caused thereby. Stertorous breathing, which is akin to snoring, occurs during the coma of apoplexy, diabetes, uraemia, and from blows on .the head. Treatment depends, of course, upon the underlying cause. Where there is no obstrùction in the passages, lying lying on the side will usually prevent snoring. In other eases" - a handkerchief handkerchief tied over the head and passed under the chin to keep the lower jaw from sagging will stop the trouble. If one turns unconsciously upon the back when asleèp, try tying a twisted cloth around the body, with a large knot tied so that when the patient turns upon the bàck it will waken him. .Snoring caused by abnormalities abnormalities of the passages such as enlarged tonsils, adenoids, : etc., can only be relieved relieved by surgery. Regarding the necessity of operating upon the enlarged enlarged tonsils and the removal of adenoids, adenoids, in the case of the former they sometimes do no harm.
