It Is Indicated by life Insurance statistics. The excess mortality of men over women. It Is said, has been one of the supposed fixed relationships In vital statistics. Iu the United States the death rate of males has always been found to be higher than that of females at every age period from birth .till death and this condition has prevailed quite generally throughout the ;clvlllzed world. In recent years, however, the mortality of females has actually been higher than that of males among the Industrial policyholders of the insurance companies In the United States and Canada. In 1911 the mortality of white males Insured in one company was more than 13 per cent higher than among females.

Irapertait to AIL Women Readers of This Paper Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it. Womens complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition. . Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and maybe despondent; it makes any one so.

Bell-an- s Hot water Sure Relief Use Gas history, one will find that the victorious general conquered his enemy usually because of the fact that he so chose his position as to have his flank protected by river, mountain range or some naturally strong barrier. "Much of the strategy of these battles consisted In maneuvering so as to obtain the advantage of position. With the use of gas It is possible to saturate a piece of ground so that no troops can cross it, and thus make an artificial barrier for the flank or protect the lines of communication. Moreover, these artificial barriers can be kept barriers for just as short a time as the strategy of the particular battle demands. 'These are but hints, but show the tremendous unexploited possibilities of gas in warfare. "One can easily Imagine the situation at the time the fighting was hand to hand with the spear or the sword, and gunpowder was first. Introduced, which In those day, p&haps, permitted the antagonists to fight at a range of 100 or 200 yards. There must have been a great outcry as to prohibiting the horrible new mode of warfare, and It must have been felt that it was very unfair to stand off 200 yards rather than to meet in combat than to man. But no one looking back on that period would attempt to say it was possible to have stayed the hand of progress and to have prevented by any legislation or agreement the use of gunpowder in warfare. Moreover, the consensus of opinion today would be that the fighting with spear and sword was more cruel and Inhumane than the fighting with the gun and the bullet. Similarly, at the present time we cannot effectually stay the progress of science, and to attempt to do ' so is not only unwise but Is also preventing the possibilities of a really more humane type of war.
