A little while ago I described in de- tail how to test your own heart. Now I propose to carry this prac- tice further by encouraging the mere Jayman to save, say, another $5 to $30 per annum by making his own test for sugar in the urine. Aithough the presence of sugar in the urine doesn’t necessarily mean diabetes, for ».uy of us can achleve a temporary glycos- wria by indulging in the favorite so- cial pastime of hogging sweets, still when sugar is found present it is cer- tainly advisable to seek medical ad- vice without delay. Since thero gre about a million gases of diabetes in the United States, you and I run & one-to-a-hundred chance of having' the disease soon or late—-you soon and T late. I feél rea- monably eure, because you don’t know much about the cause of diabetes and how, to prevent it as I do. T know ever so little about it myself, but that is a great deal more than you Jnow up to this moment. - Diabetes is twenty times as rare in those who are underweight at the Bge of forty years and over forty times as rare im people who are thin @t the age of fifty years. It is a dis. tapuso most likely (o-ocouUr in Persons who are:overweight. Even if over- welght {s not the only cause of dia- betes, there is no question that with- in reasonable physiological limita- tlon every individual can determine his own girth rate and displacement. Overwelight Is clearly brought about by (1) too much food or (2) insuffi. cient dally exercise, or some shame- ful combination of these two sins. I tell the stark truth about it, not only from a mean disposition, but in the hope of arousing the fighting epirit of & lot of misguided folk who are headed toward diabetes and worse fates. Enough of this joy killing. Let us get to the test. ~ The simplest and most satiafactory test for glucose (sugar) in the urine {s made thu To an inch or two of Benedict's so- lution in a test tube add eight or ten drops of urine. Holl the mixture for two minutes, and then let it stand to cool. - If after cooling there is a yel- low, green or reddish precipitate or cloudiness, that is sugar. Benedict's solution is a standard so- lution obtainable from druggists everywhere. The formula for g. 18+ dict's solutlon as follows: Copper sulphate, 17.3 grams; sodlum citrate, 178.0 grams: sodium carbonate, 200.0 grams; distilled water, cnough to make 1,000.0 cublc centimeters. Benedict's test for glycosuria (su- gar in the urine) is widely employed by diabetic patients under medical treatment to check up on their car. bohydrate tolerance the | Theater Night.

To my mind, the spoken drama, ar- Y tistically staged and acted by great artiats, is the most potent educational factor of our day. Everv season sees plays of the finest caliber and the most beautiful scenic achievement launched in New York and sent out from there to cities the country over. We owe it to ourselves to see and hear these modern productions. It is sickening to think of the thousands Who never go near the theater except to see the latest musical comedy or review. These are delightful diver- slons, to be sure, but ice cream sodas L not take the place of good solid 00 A young ccuple of my acquaintance have an ex eut plan for making sure that they see most of the new plays. To begin with, they clip from the newspaper. the morning after any new production, the review of the dramatic critic. These are kept care- fully and compared with other criti- clsms and the reports of friends. Once a fortnight they go to_see one of these first-class dramas. They re- serve their seats in advance, so that they get the best seats for the least money. In addition to this plan, they sub- seribe to a series of performances given by one of the companles de- voted to Interesting dramas, which “attract only a small but discriminat. ing public. They have meen nearly {all of the novel one-act plays, satires, {thrillers and fantasies of the last few years.

V\,IARTHA Wwas a pretty, warm-hearted, romantic young sirl, full of high 'L spirts and the joy of living. When she was twenty she fell in love Wwith Thomas, who was an exemplary young man, and married him. It seemed an ideal match. One of those “and-they-were-married-and- lved-happlly-ever-atterward” kind of the story books. Martha became a notable housewife. She ws thrifty and economical. No house was more spic and span than hers. No man sat down to a better dinner than did her husband. And when the bables came no children were cared for more tenderly, none reared with more loving wisdom than hers. And through it all Martha kept herself up. No matter how much she economized, she was always neatly and tastefully dressed. No matter what the stress under which she lived, she always turned a cheerful face on the world. No matter how hard she worked, she always found time for reading. Thomas prospered. as he was bound to do with such a helpmate. He was sober and moral and, to all outward eeeming, & model husband. But he inflicted on his family’ all the mennnesses of a little and meun nature. Tn his home le was & grinding tyrant, who delighted in showing his power 7, densing his wife and chilldren every pleasure and thwarting their every plan. He was stingy to the point of miserliness. He raged like 2 madman when the household bills came in. and cvery cent for any extra expenditure had to be coaxed and cajoled and jollled out of him. THe was cross and surly and grouchy. He would spend days in a {rozen silence, in which no one’ dared to move or speak for fear of further offending him. and he sent the domestic atmosphere down to zero. The sound of his key in the door at night stilled the prattle on the children’s lips and gent the cat scurrying to the cellar. And the family looked forward to Sundays and holidays, when the head of the house would be at home, as days of dread and doom. 7,4id not take much knowledge of the real Thomas to dissipate ideal of the lover she had married. It did not reguire many browbeating and parsimony snd {njustice to kill her lave for him. But by that time Martha had given hostuges to fortune. and she had the grit and the courake tu carry on for the sake of her children. She stood between them and their father. She got things out of him by hook or crook for them. She softened their lives as muc possible by her boundless love and service. She literally offered herself up to them as a living sucrifice. They left home and got away from father as soon as they could. Some of them are married and have homes of their own. The others are settled in business. But they are all away from father, where they can live thelr own lives in thelr own way. And Martha wants to go, too. She ulso desires a little freedom, a little pe: little happiness. But when she tells her children that she wants to leave the man that they fied from they are horrified. Ther tell lier that she will disgrace them. talk.
