EMPLOY 706,000 TEACHERS There were 23,500,000 persons attend ing schools of some kind In the United States In 1916, according to estimates of Uncle Sam. “This means,” declares the annual report of the commissioner of education, “that approximately 24 per cent of the inhabitants of the United States are attending school, as compared with 19 per cent in Great Britain, 17 per cent in France, 20 per cent in Germany, and a little over 4 per cent In Russia.” The bureau points out, however, that the result is much less favorable to the United States if daily attendance, rather than enroll ment, is taken as the basis for compari son, since some of the other nations have better attendance and a longer school term than the United States. The number of pupils In public kin dergarten and elementary schools rose from 10,900,000 in 1910 to 17,935,000 in 1914, an increase of more than a mil lion in four years. In the same period the number of public high school stu- dents increased from 915,000 to 1,219,- 000; and for 1915 the corresponding figure was 1,329,000. As the result of this increase of 110,000 in public high school students the total number of students in the 14,000 high schools of all kinds increased to 1,500,000. Of the 11,074 public high schools reported, 8,440 had full four-year courses. Ap proximately 93 per cent of all public high school students are in four-year high schools. Teachers Number 706,000. And Overdue Notes. The train was late, even later than is usual on a Boston & Maine leased line, and as they crawled through one station a weary traveler was heard to exclaim: “What a villianous station this is! They try to irritate one on purpose. Look at those girls in the refreshment room! Why do they dress them all in black?” “Don’t you know?" said a fellow passenger, in a most solemn tone of voice, and with a look of awe on his face. “No,” replied the curious and fret ful traveler. “Why,” said the other, "because they are in mourning for the late trains.”—Philadelphia Ledger. The alleged young woman was out rowing with a possible suitor and had taken her little sister, who was ex hibiting much fear at the waves. “Why, Martha, if you are so nervous now, what will you be at my age?” “Thirty-nine, I suppose,” meekly re plied the little sister.—San Francisco Chronicle. Unangelic Appearance. “You used to say that girl was an angel.” “Yes. And I’m sorry I said it.

Among the virtues of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the ability to correct sterility in the cases of many women. This fact is well established as evidenced by the following letter and hundreds of others we have published in these colums. Poplar Bluff, Mo.—“I want other women to know what a blessing Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege table Compound has been to me. We had always wanted a baby in our home but I was in poor health and not able to do my work. My mother and hus band both urged me to try Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound. I did so, my health im proved and I am now the mother of a fine baby girl and do all my own house work.” —Mrs. A llia B. T immons , 216 Almond St., Poplar Bluff, Mo. In many other homes, once childless, there are now children because of the fact that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound makes women normal, healthy and strong Write to the Lydia E. Pinkham Medi cine Co., Lynn, Mass., for advice—it will be confidential and helpful. Got the Best of It, Agnes—I hear that you and your fiance had a fight. How did it come out?

The report analyzes the number of teachers in the United States, show ing that of the 706,000 teachers, 169,- 000 were men and 537,000 women. The number of man teachers has increased very slightly since 1900; the number of woman teachers has almost doubled. In public elementary schools the number of man teachers has decreased 20 per cent since 1900, while the number of woman teachers has increased 8 per cent.

Our isolation may always have in it some measure of protection, but our long coast line, facing two oceans, makes us vulnerable as are few nations.

Among the useful and Interesting de vices of which the origin is directly traceable to the war, says a contem porary, the automobile field kitchen is one that is made necessary by the swiftness with which armies in the field are transported and by the promptness with which these armies must be supplied with food. In this field kitchen the army cook raises the canopy on the rear end. Behold! A kitchen of the most compact, yet of the most complete kind, is revealed. Four high-pressure burners furnish the heat; cleverly concealed pumps force water from the 50-gallon tank in front of the car to the enameled sink In the kitchen; and a variety of uten sils, such as jugs, plates, meat-chop pers and fish-slicers are provided for the rapid and clean preparation of food. Like most modern kitchens, too, this one boasts of ventilators, both at the sides and in the roof of the car. In- deed, it would seem ns if the English firm which invented this motor-kitchen simply made a practical, miniature edi tion of a most approved and modern type of hotel kitchen. No Snap.

Columbus, Ohio THE PERUNA COMPANY If you must have your meat every day, eat It, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted authority who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become slug gish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains In the back or sick head- ache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weath er is bad you have rheumatic twinges.
