A FINE RECORD OF
NAVY AND MARINE
CORPS IS REVEALED.
(By The Associated Press.)
Washington' Dec. 9.— The Navy
lived up to its best traditions during
the war and sailors almost invariably
conducted themselves better than in
peace times. Despite the large num
ber of men inducted into service from
civil life, which increased the naval
force 134 per cent, there were fewer
violations of navy regulations. The
percentage of co,urtsmartid|l de
creased from 1.75 to 1.17 in the navy
and from 2.72 to 1.20 in the Marine
Corps.
This fine record of the sailor’s be
havior wds revealed today in the an
nua) report of Captain George R.
Clark, judge advocate general, who
also took occasion to commend the
improved conditions in naval prisons,
which he attributed largely to the ef
forts pf the Welfare League. In re
ferring to excellent conditions at the
Portsmouth, N. H., yard, the Judge
Advocate General said the system
there was initiated by Thomas Mott (
Osborne, former superintendent of the
New York State Prison.

CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional
conditions, and in order to cure it you
must take an internal remedy. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally
and acts through the blood on the mu
cous surfaces of the system. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine was prescribed by
one of> the best physicians in this
country for years. It is composed of
some of the best tonics known, com
bined with some of the best blood pur
ifiers. The perfect combination of
the ingredients in Hall’s Catarrh Med
icine is what produces such wonder
ful results in catarrhal conditions.
