The family allowance will be grad uated by the government to care for each dependent. It will be given only if the soldier or sailor makes an al lotment of part of his pay to his family. , . The amount to be paid for a man's death will be based on the man's ser vices, the size of his family and the degree of loss to his family by his death. Partial disability ' will be compen sated for along the same lines. All this compensation will be paid di rectly by the government. Under the insurance system, use of which is optional, the government will pay all the war excess premiums on his policy, making insurance up to $10,000 just as cheap to him as it would be in peace times. The government also will establish a system for reeducation of injured men to fit them as far as possible for lives of usefulness either in their former or in other vocations. They will be paid compensation and their families taken care of while they are being thus helped.

Billy Evans, umpire of the American league, and generally recognized as one of the best officials baseball ever has known, is a believer in peace and inflicts his ideas on all baseball players with whom he comes in contact. The times when Evans has chased player from games in the American league could be counted on the fingers of a normal man's hands. Evans claims, that there are many things an umpire should not hear or see. There are times when an um pire, by turning his back, according to Evans, can keep oit of what other wise would be serious trouble. The effect of Evans' practices is easily seen in the work of George Moriarity, tho former Detroit third baseman. Moriarity, although one of the scrappiest men in baseball has very little trouble on the baseball field now. His association with Evans is the reason. There now is little doubt that the world's series will be played. On a recent visit to New York President Ban JohnRon of the American league declared that, although baseball is go ing to give up many men to the new national armies, the men left with the chnmpionsHip culbs undoubtedly will play the post-Beason series as usual.

"I believe the country learned the medical lesson of the Spanish American war. Publicitv is coiner to be the safeguard against similar mis takes in this vastly greater enter prise" he pointed out. Vital as is the matter of surgical care of the wounded, this task is of small importance, Dr. Martin says, ii) comparison with that of keeping the men in the camps and on ships free from infectious disease. "It can be promised that there will be no danger ous epidemics of preventable disease," Dr. Martin concluded. Summer Complaint During the hot weather of the sum mer months some member of almost eveiry family is likely to be troubled with an unusual looseness of the bowels, and it is of the greatest im portance that this be treated prompt ly, which can only bo done when the medicine is kept at hand. Mrs. F. F. Scott, Scottsville, N. Y., states, "I first used Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy as much as five years ago. At that time I had a se vere attack of summer complaint and was suffering intense pain. One dose relieved me. Other members of my family have since used it with like results."
