counsel, W. J. Carter, had practically
convinced the court to permit his client

Richwine said he would get a job
either in Steelton or fn Middletown.
"I'm liable to stop over and get a
job at the steel works, or then again
I'm liable to go on to Middletown and
get work," said he.
"Just liable to, are you," inquired
President Judge Kunkel. "Seems to
ni3 there should be some Insurance on
this liability. Even yet," went on the
court, "you don't seem to be in quite
the proper frame of mind to come in
here and ask for leniency. So we'll
send you back to jail again until next
Monday. In the meantime you can
think the matter over."

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
KEYSTONE STATE
SENT 12,704 MEN
Fourth Infantry Had the Ma
jority Honors of the Mobili
zation Camp
Official mustering reports show that
12,704 National Guardsmen were dis
patched from the Pennsylvania mo
bilization camp to El Paso under the
call of President Wilson. This is not
far from the total number furnished
by the Keystone Commonwealth dur
ing the whole of the Spanish war.
Only one other State . has furnished
more and that is New York.
The official figures obtained from
the camp last night when the Eighth
regiment and the hospital troops left
the camp showed 648 officers and 12,-
056 men entrained for the border. Ac
cording to ex-Governor Samuel W.
Pennypaeker's history of Pennsylvania
this State furnished 692 officers and
10,268 men under the first call of the
President in 1898 and supplied 6,370
more to fllle up regiments. A number
of the first men called failed to pass
the. physical test, which was not as
stringent, however, as that through
which the Keystone State men now
on the border have undergone.
At Camp Brumbaugh, it is estimated
that 14,700 men were at the mobiliza
tion camp so that approximately a
seventh failed to pass the surgeons or
declined to enlist. The latter class was
very small. The mobilization has
heen highly commended by authori
ties for its speed, but the deiays due to
the unfamillarity with government
methods in mustering and the severe
physical examinations caused the divi
sion to be slow in starting for the
border.
The men furnished by organisations
is as follows:

PARALYSIS CAUSE
NOT DETERMINED
Dr. Dixon Gives Important Ad
vice on How to Prevent the
Infantile Disease
State Commissioner of Health Sam-,
uel G. Dixon in a woek-end health
talk gives some valuable suggestions
about the way to avoid conditions likely
to cause infantile, paralysis. The com
missioner says frankly that the cause
of the disease is not yet known.
Dr. Dixon says:
Infantile paralysis is a disease that
affects the nervous system. It often
causes death, and again, the acute
stage frequently subsides ana leaves
paralysis of one or more of the limbs
that heretofore has often lasted
through life.
To-day we do not know what
causes the disease, therefore preven
tive measures must be broad. You
must keep the children away from in
sect life, such as flies, mosquitoes,
fleas, bed bugs, ticks, ants, lice, etc.
You should see that all rats and mice
around the building are killed. Pet
cats and dt>gs should be washed with
JULY 10, 1916.
a two per cent, carbolic acid solution
to destroy insect life. Everything
should be kept clean about the home,
including the children's bodies and
clothing.
Children should be fed well but not
indulged in large quantities of water,
ice cream or other frozen dishes on a
full stomach, as that will often cause
acute indigestion and render them sus
ceptible to other diseases. In other
words, the digestion should be
guarded carefully.
Children should have plenty of
sleep. They should not associate with
other children that are sick. Their
homes should be well ventilated- but
screened from flies, etc., and any flies
that happen to enter the building
should be killed. All foodstuffs should
be protected from flies, dust, etc.
Fruit and vegetables eaten raw should
be thoroughly washed in clean water.
Children's mouths should be rinsed
out and their throats gargled with Do
bell's solution after each meal. If
the children are top young to rinse or
gargle, wash the mouth with a piece
of fabric, muslin or linen, that has
been dipped in Dobell's solution.
Children should be kept out of
crowded places and be denied the fre
quent access to crowded halls of en
tertainment during our present threat
with epidemic.
The youngsters should not be per
mitted to sit on the damp ground nor
have their bodies thoroughly chilled,
day or night. They should not bathe
in cold water until their circulation
is interfered with and they become
chilly and blue.
