Plasmq

Plasma, which has saved the lives of countless men already in this war and will continue to do so as the fighting tempo increases, is one of the great finds of recent scientific effort. Like the Sulpha drugs, it is keeping men alive who must otherwise have died.

What is plasma? Webster's ne.;" dictionary says: "Plasma is the fluid part of blood, lymph, or milk, as opposed to the corpuscles, the fat globules, etc., suspended in it. Blood consists of a fluid, or plasma in which colorless or colored cells called corpuscles are suspended."

The "Champion Log" tells about plasma in these words: "The blood which circulates through the arteries, veins, and capillaries of the human body carry nourishment and oxygen to all the tissues of the body. The red and white corpuscles float in plasma, which is why plasma is so'important in the treatment of soldiers whose bodies have been lacerated with bullets, bombs, shells, and grenade fragments. Although the blood loss may be slight, we are informed, the terrific shock may so lower normal resistance that the plasma seeps through the walls of the blood vessels. As a result the blood pressure goes down and down and the red corpuscles fail to supply sufhcient oxygen to the tissues, and carry less and less waste matter away' Consequently, within a short time, unless plasma is added, the tissues of the body suffocate and the person dies.

"Physicians tell us that the transfusion of blood is much more effective, but it is impracticable for use on the battlefield. Today plasma in powder form is taken by the Army Medical Corps right into the front lines, mixed with distilled water and injected into wounded soldiers on the battlefield. The efficacy of plasma depends upon speed-injecting it into the patient as soon as possible after the injury occurs."

Love of Country

By Elihu Root

True love of country is not mere blind partisanship. It is regard for the people of one's country, and all of them. It is a feeling of fellowship and brotherhood for all of them. It is a desire for the prosperity and happiness of all of them. It is kindly and considerate judgment toward all of them. The first duty of popular self-government is individual selfcontrol. The essential condition of true progress is that it shall be based upon grounds of reason, and not of prejudice. Lincoln's noble sentiment of charity for all and malice toward none, was not a specific for the Civil War' but is a living principle of action.

Satislcction

The greatest satisfaction you will find in this tremendously interesing life is when your conscience congratulates yL'tr for having made some miserable man happy

Mcrry crnd Her Little Bond

Mary bought a little bond, And slipped it in her sock, "'Tis safer there by far," quoth she, "Than under key and lock."

When Mary bought that little bond, And stowed it in her stocking, The interest that investment drew Was something really sho'cking.

Mary bought a little bond, And hid it in her lisle; She bought a second, third and fourth, And now she's got a pisle !

If Mary keeps on buying bonds, And stowing them in lisle, To cover her deforrrrities

Long skirts will be in style.

The Food Shortcge

No more can we smile at the comedy star, Who looks so indignant and flustered, When he's slammed in the eye with a cranberry pie, Or cuffed on the conk with a custard.

The stage-waiter, peeved, at receiving a tip, Of less than ten cents on the dollar, Dare not pour a stoup of hot nourishing soup Down the guest's number seventeen collar.

No longer the boor who chucks under the chin, The poor but exemplary slavey, Gets nicked on the bean with a steaming tureen Of perfectly edible gravy.

In household disputes, when the pretty young wife Thinks husband is getting too perky, She cannot get back with a smashing attack On the gentleman's face with a turkey.

The brickbat and casting once more must be used, To lend mirth and lightness to action, Old stuff, it is true, which, compared with beef stew Will furnish but little attraction.

We'll need all our chow for the boys at the front, There's never a question about it; But we'll have to admit that no comedy hit Can ever be written without it.

Wcshingrton's Letter to His Wife

"I shall rely confidently on that Providence which has heretofore preserved and been bountiful to me, not doubting but that I shall return safe to you in the fall. I shall feel no pain from the toil or danger of the campaign; my unhappiness will flow frorn the uneasiness I know you will feel from being left alone. f therefore beg that you will summon your whole fortitude, and pass your time as agreeably as possible."
