Tribune's Daily Health Hint THE INTER-CHUKCH MOVEMENT "XE OF the most promising signs of the times is tin V- luter-ehureli world movement. For thousands of peo ple here lies the hope, perhaps the hist hope, ot a bet ter day, of a return to wholesome living and elear thinking. founded upon the re-estabhshment ot a sound and rational spiritual basis. Nothing is dearer than that the old religious habit nave oeen lost as rar as tne vast majontv ol people an concerned. The old fashioned eonflii-t of creed and dogma is worn out. The people want something real, some spirit ual appeal that has an actual relation to the problems ol every day lit e. Now a well organized movement has been launched, par ticipated in by churches of different theological interpre tations, but united in the common aim of restoring the vi tality ot organized religion in tne lire ot all people. It is a tremendous work, and one to which the best energies of everv communitv mav well be directed. "Where statesmanship has failed, where politics has Collapsed, is it not possible, that religion, will succeed. It will not be a new religion. It will be as old as the Sermo on the Mount. But it will represent one tremendous change, the transfer of religion from a'neglected abstrac tion, to a vital and constructive force in every-day life. . The war prenared a fertile field for such endeavor. The millions of men in Europe were brought closer to the eter nal verities of life than ever before. A new spiritual life for them was born. It was a universal (lod to whom they prayed and it was a universal church from which they re quested aid. It would be too much to expect world church to emergi in a dav. Habit is strong, and in a certain sense ecclesias tical differentation is essential, for what appeals to one temperament may never appeal to another. But the inter-church world movement is a beginning, a step toward a genuine revival of old-fashioned religious taith, based upon a common aspiration tor better thing. It mav not succeed as well as its promoters anticipate. But it does hold out genuine promise: .And it is promise, the promise of a better world, a higher plane of human associa tion, for which the entire world yearns at the present time, and which must be attained it civilization, as we understand it, is to endure. lly Harriet ltoewlg.

THE STATESMEN and the scholars of war-torn Eu rope say, "We must have Yankee dollars to shoo the wolf away. Ho let. the. tourists travel, and blow in bucks and crowns, and tread our bloodstained gravel, and see our shattered towns. They give us all the wil lies, those Yankee tourist mobs, the rubbernecks and sillies, the schweinhunds and the swabs. But, we must have their boodle, and so we rise and wail, 'Hurrah for Yankee Doodle, and for the eagle's tail.' " The tour ists will be flocking for many years to come, to scenes that once were shocking, where shrapnel used to hum. Through regions grown historic the frowsy bunch will tread, and say, "Alas, poor Yorick!" above the hero's bed. "Where once some dauntless creature fought on. though shorn of hope, the dowdy old maid teacher will read her guidebook dope. Where soldiers used t hanker to gain the hero fame, some cornfed Kansas banker will ply his snapshot game. Where once the ar niies wallowed in mud and bloody foam, on soil that should be hallowed, the rubbernecks will roam. And if old Europe bleeds them, and stings them till they're blind, the while she pets and feeds them, I really will not mind. ncy. Later in lftdl a lighthouse was erected on this same spot. It is stiindini today and bears a tablet commemorating the lauding, though a larger and' much more pretentious structure has been built for lighting the shipping. 'Sail'ng further inland, thev touch ed a point at the entrance to the har bor they called 'Point Comfort,' he cause of the good channel and safe ani-linrage it afforded. When lalei similar places were found, the one first touched was dubbed 'Old,' and this name has clung to it ever since.

The first white Mien who vi.-ited the site constituted a small exploring party from Sir Wnltt r Kaluga's colony at Koanokc Island about l.'iSli. Almost a century later Portsmouth was settled. Since its infancy it has been famous for its navy vnril, the I rst one having been built bv the Kmrlish. Seven miles cast of N'ewport News lies the ancient l-.nro.ieh mid village of Hampton. When Smith and the colonists lund- 1 at ewp:rt Xews looking for a town stie. live Indians met them and inv ted them to their viilage, '!-f-ouirhtnn,' where Hampton now stands. ''Trori the davs of the colonists, luring the Revolution when Lord Dunsriiore, the lioval Governor of Virginia, v.'iis driven lo the safety of his gunboats, to the fight of the Mer riniae, and the Monitor in its waters luring the Civil War. and lo its ncti"e part in Ihe World War, the history f Hampton Roads has been fraughi with interest. The 'River Queen' r'd- ng at anchor on its smooth shining surface on February .1, 18(15. was the scene ot an intormal conlerence be tween Lincoln nncl Seward of the Union and Alexander II. Stephens,.

A bulletin of the National Geographic society gives the history of this re gion ns follows : " 'There is but one entrance bv sea into this country, and that is at Ihe month of a very goodly bav." Captain John Smith wrote in his 'Map of Vir ginia, wilh a description of the coun try," concerning Chesapeake Lav with its n 1 1 fin Li n t harbor, Hampton lioads, which he describes as 'hound ed on the south bv Florida, on the north bv New France, ami whos.' western limits nre unknown.' "A few hustling ports like New York and Huston might disagree with the redoubtable captain concerning the facilities their hurlior-i now offer, but certainly no harbor can claim a much more romantic h story not orh in colonial times, but in the World War as well. ''Hampton Roads has been the ren dezvous of the American iiavv ever since there was one. When, during the enrlv part of 1PI7, newspaper re port were saving that the fleet wa- swallowed up somewhere in the misls of the Atlantic,' it had secretly slid out of the harbor at Hampton lioads and w-iis renting ouictlv nt Yorl.towu a few miles up the bav, awnilinc orders from Washington.

If you are feeling run-down, weak, nervous, tlred-in-Ihe-morning. and generally ailing, these aro the symptoms that should warn you to tako care of your health. Four persons in every ten are needing more phosphorous in their bodies. . W hen you see thin and fret ful people; or those who are anae mic, pale, frail, oft despondent or lacking In energy, you may look for tho need of certain elements thai make for a strong constitution. Some poople. after relying upon preparations romposed chiefly of falls, sulnine, drastic drugs, iron, calomel, cod-liver oil, etc., wonder why they find no benefit. That is easily explained by the fact that such persons need the phosphoric element, which is a most potent essential to health, and contained In 1I1TUO-IMIOSl'llAT!-:. tho famous health preparation.
