Ye gods! What a chance there is at this moment! “In five years from now, most American business men will belong to the ‘I-Wish-I-Had Club.’ “Then it will be too late to buy a dollar for thirty cents. The opportunities will be gone. “When a horse balks the balk is in his head, not in his legs. . He moves on when he thinks he will.” Mr. Casson's view that the “I-Wish-I-Had Club” will have a large membership five years from now is worth giving serious consideration. iS ‘This nation offers just as many opportunities now as it ever did.

Yet in the past it has been difficult to get those afflict with either. or their relatives and intimates, to acknowledge the fact. Many lives have beer lost which might have been saved, had frank recognition of either of these diteases been made in their early stages and remedial measures been undertaken. One of the greatest of the obstaéles that has stood in tuberculosis as a communicable disease has been inability | ‘to locate cases. No drastic tsolation measures have been Gndertaken, but héalth officers have sought to render aid and prevent contagion by the aid of visiting nurses and | medical advice. Public sanitoriums have been provided, | with all comforts and equipment for treating patients, | th in incipient and well-advanced cases. Yet it is a difficult matter to induce those afflicted to enter them except as a last resort. s Cures, even in the best located outdoor sanitoriums, } are limited, chiefly because of this neglect to enter cases until tco mucls progress has been. made. Yet there are cuges when ‘entry is made in the earller stages. In most cages cures are possible where there is a vigorous body ; and the right mental attitude, assuming that treatment js begun in sufficient time, as, seems to be the case with young Hoover. Common sense has induced him and his parents to recognize and candidly admit the trouble and then take the right measures for cure. This candor and good sense should be more common. ‘That is why the president's action is of value for its e .

Who will carn the money if the afflicted one quits for months and perhaps several years ‘to také trestment? Another reason, applicable also to \oqneer, is pride. A third is fear, which leads the suf-/ ‘| férer to ascribe his trouble to almost every other disease, even up to the time of death. It is evident, while great progress is being made in the; understanding and treatment of these two diseases, that their handling in a preventive and curative way has not yet. developed into a system stich as the people will both Approve in principle and support by individual act.

(Minneapolis Tribune) A motion picture magnate, admitting himself near the point of dietraction in a quest for raw material for the rejuvenation of. the talking screen, declares there is no romance in Iowa. Italy, France, where people live—there it is, he says, you must go for romance. In a New York intcrview he asks to be shown with some truculence, where there is romance in Towa.

SYMPTOMS AND CAUSES OF HEART TROUBLE - Heast trouble causes more deaths than any other disease in North America notwithstanding th> fact that a healthy heart is a strong, sturdy organ capable of beating more than two billion times in an average lifetime. If you -have any symptoms, such as shortness of breath, distress while ly- ing on the left side, pain in the heert, poor circulation or palpitation*of the heart, I would advise you to go to your doctor and have a made, as he is’ usually ’.able’ to.tell very quickly whether of, not there is something wrong with your heart. Millions of people, have sound hearts, yet are afraid they have seri- ous heart trouble. This fear keeps them from going to the doctor and finding out that their hearts are all right. On the other hand, many pa- tients with heart defects are unaware of their true condition. It often hap+ pens that the symptoms which the/ patient ascribes to the heart are really due to digestive trouble. An excess of gas may cause pain in the region of the heart in some cases or bring on palpitation which passes when the diet is adjusted. If your symptoms are caused from the stomach or bowels, then atten-| tion. should be directed to these or- gans, but if your doctor tells you that you have heart disease, then, regard- less of the particular kind of heart trouble, it is advisable to follow some general rules. After a careful study of the many causes of heart disorders, I haye come to the conclusion that the principal causes may be listed as follows: First, overeating of all kinds of food and drinking too much liquid; second, the use of excessive amounts of starch and sugar above the body require- ments; third, the use of improper combinations of food which produce | excessive stomach and intestinal gas; fourth, the use of gassy foods such as onions, garlic, cooked cabbage, dried beans; fifth, over-exertion to which the body is not accustomed; sixth, growths and tumors which interfere with the free circulation of the blood, including enlargement of the thyroid gland; prolonged emotional distress due to fear, worry, etc.; ninth, toxic poison- ing from the colon, rheumatism and focal infections. Wrong diet is probably the most portant factor in producing heart disorders. Improper mixtures not only produce gas which presses against the heart and impedes its work but they wjil also produce an internal toxemia. It is easy to under- stand that the large amounts of irri- | tating material carried through the heart by the blood stream must in time have some effect upon the ten- der membranes lining the heart and upon the valves themselves. This gen- eral toxemia may manifest as rheu- | seventh, overweight; eighth | toll addremed envelope aunt be enconad, matism, and those with a rheumatic tendency usually develop some form of heart trouble later on.

Frequenily, this toxic condition of the body is accompanied by tonsilitis, sinus trouble, infected teeth, influ- enza, etc. Then as the toxemia be- | comes more acute, heart involvement | takes place.

R. writes: “Thirteen years ago my aunt had a stroke from | a clot of blood on the brain Her { right side is paralyzed somewhat, and ; She has never been able to sp-1k a | word since, although she moves her | lips and mumbles. Do you think | fasting would cure a case of such | long standing? She is 45 years old | and weighs 150 pounds. She is the | picture of healt.” | Answer: I am sure your aunt would be helped by fasting, but it would take a fast of two or three works to accomplish good results. The best. plan would be to have her go to.some ‘doctor in the city who uncerstands the fasting cure, who wou'd encour- ‘age her and watch her case during | the fast. i Meat Necessary to Body's Growth Question: Health Seeker writes: “I do not eat breakfast. About 11.30 or noon I eat raw carrots, apples, oF oranges or any other fruit, such as prunes, etc. At 5:50 or 6:00 p. m. J take lettuce, celery, baked potato or jcalabage, spaghetti or macaroni, fish or egg. Sometimes a little pastry or preserved fruit. I drink cocoe or milk and eat brown bread. I do not overload myself with any of these. I omit meat entirely. Do you think this is a well balanced diet? If not, will.you kindly help me to im- prove it?” Answer: The menus which .are published each Friday in this column would’ be an improvement over the ones you are using, You go not state your object in omitting meat from your diet. Fish and eggs are excellent proteins but do not contain !the amino acids which are necessary to the body's growth. Try following the well balanced menus from the Friday articles, and after two.or three weeks write me again, giving your ithe dififculties, if any, that you are having.

After mak- |ing the friendship of Edward Irving, | Carlyle decided to follow literature as |@ profession. | With the publishing of his “Life of |Schiller” and the “History of Fred- erick the Great,” Carlyle soon won fame for writing literary portraits. |His chief work, however, was Sartor Eseerterd (“The Tailor Done Over”),| - the title of an old Scottish song. This | work is a mixture of the sublime and the grotesque in the author's opinions ‘and philosophies of the world. | Carlyle became lord rector of Edin- burgh University. He declined a pen- sion which Disraeli offered him. After {his _wife’s death Carlyle lived quietly |in London, devoting himself .o rem- iniscences and articles. His contribu- |tion to Hterature is summarized as | follows: | “Carlyle exercised an unrivaled in- fluence on British ‘iterature during |the mid-19th century and on the con- | temporary moral, religious and po- |litical beliefs. His critical biograph- eal essays were the first to place the riches of modern German thought before the English-reading world.” {Bares _] oe Many a judge thinks that because staccato writing is the rage nowadays he, too, can make his sentences short. i * ok * | A sports writer deplores the fact {that the clamor is for touchdowns in- ‘stead of ethics.
