HAS the world progressed3 In the old
days sordid considerations were put aside
and the legions Of Christianity, led by
the flower of Christian knighthood,
repeatedly hurled themselves against the
Saracen hordes. Recovery Of the Sav:

But now, in the closing years of the
nineteenth century, thousands Of unof-
Tending men, women and children are be.

will not cry out that "God is great and
Mohammed is his prophet" Alas! there
are no crusaders now. "Policy" governs,
sAud the nations Of the earth bow the knee
to Mammon. From desolated Armenia
the cry goes up. How, long, o God, how

upon European ears as deaf and hearts a.
cold as those Of the butchers who rule in
the palaces Of Stamboul. Now comes
word across the sea that hundreds

Delft blue and white is particularly
pleasing when it lights up really good
little view of land and water. These
shades are. however, high priced. On
the low-priced shades the drawing is
very poor, and the boats ride in the
sky, and the windmills occur in most
impossible places and positions. These
blue and white shades look their best on
lamps of wrought iron. When blue and
white is not chosen for n bedroom,

DISEASE OF ocCUPATsc.>.
N s1Ical Men Have Discovered the ~
tstence OF -he Golf Arcs.


Medical authorities have decided Tax
s'golf arm is 4 disease likely TO col2e
upon a golf player ut any monicnt.
Whether the experienced player or the
rank amateur is the most likely 10
come under its influence has not been
decided. The one thing that all agree
In is shat the disease is a reality, ana
enc that is not TO be lightly con-
sidered. One may be afflicted by
the disease without knowing that
it exists. and. though temporary re-
lief may have been had. it is 4 question
vet to he determined whether inn
proper treatment of what may be
thought 10 be merely q sprain will not
render player chronic sufferer from
the new disease.
Golf arm is an affiiction of tire
musculc-spiral nerve. the functions OF
which are interfered with under
certain conditions which have been
found 20 occur more frequently in the
playing Of golf than IN any other game
of physical exertion. The attention OF
physicians was first called TO the new
diesase by the ompiaints Of profession
al golf PLAYERS. These players told OF
acute pains along the UPPER part OF the
arm Similar pains had often been
noticed. but wece thought 70 he the
natural result OF unusual exercise.
Members Of the British Medical So
ciety first called attention 70 II. with
the result that a series Of experiments
was begun on the golf links and carried
on TO considerable extent. The arms
OF scores Of golf players under various
conditions were examined and the re
suits OF these examinations were care
fully compared. The disease is an in
terruption OF the direct current Of the
muSculo-spiral nerve. which IS brought
under conditions where ii really works
against itself. and in doing 50 is urged
70 greater limits than nature intended
II should. thus producing pain. The
styles Of play most likely 70 produce
'groif arm" have been found 70 be the
vigorous pressing and forcing" which.
when employed. often produces > pain
ful sensation more quickly than any
other sction in the game.
While American physicians have not
carried on plan Of Investigation and
experiment they have taken 81 interest
in the new disease. The main idea that
has been develoy>ei in America IS that
''golt arm" Is more liable % attack an
experienced than an inexperienced
player. Pains in the arm OF the begin
rer az cclf come, Il IS believed. merely
from the unusual exercise. But when
the psins strike the cd timer II : more
serious. Just what the remedy will Be
for the new disease has not Vet been 6e-
termine6 The idea seems 70 k that
the medical authorities VIII SON b.
able % fix On which Of the golf strokes
interiors most directly on the spiral
nerve. snd viii suggest the elimination
Of such hurtfpl strokes from the game.
