How HabIts Are Formed.

The formation Of physical habit
involves the education OF . portion
Of the brain: and when the habit has
once been formed the act may be per.
formed almost Independently OF the
will or the higher brain. This fact
should impress us most profoundly
with the Importance Of forming tight
habits. since It is apparent that the
getting rid OF q wrong habit involves
not only tho formation Ct a right
habit. but the far more tedious and
difficult work Of undoInE the evil
work which has been done In tho
wrong education OF the brain. This
same principle applies to tho higher
ccnters which are concerned only In
mental acts. ns we shall see later. II
is indeed n most momentous thought
that every act OF our lives. not only
emanatcs from the brain. but modi.
ies and changes the brain. thus iuflu.

Use Of Tobacco by Minors.

The use OF tobacco by children. Its
causes and prevention is discussed
In the Medical Summary.
Whilst most states have laws forbid.
ding the sale OF tobacco to minors. II
is n notorious fact that such laws are
universally ignored. The parent.
teacher and physician arc to blame.
The parent. that he does not thor
oushiy train his child: the teacher.
that he does not better supervise the
conduct OF his pupils: the doctor. In
that he does not warn tho parent.

School boys may be xccn any day

Sedgwick. Ark. June 19.-The case
of W. s. Taylor's little son Is looked
upon by those Interested In medical
matters rs one OF the most wonderful
on record. In this connection his faith
er makes the following statement:
Last September my little boy had
dropsy: his feet and limbs were swoi-
len to such an extent that he could
not walk or put his shoes on. Tho
treatment that tho doctors were giving
him seemed to do him no good. and
two or three people said his days
were short. even tho doctors. two OF
the best In tho country told mo hc
would not get better. I stopped their
medicine and at oncc sent for Dodd's
Kidney Pills. gave him three Pills
day. one morning. noon and night for
eight days: At tho end Of tho eighth
day tho swelling was all gone. but TO
give tho medicine Justice. gave him
eleven moro pills. ] used thirty.dvc
Pills In all and he was entirely cured.

Skin 1ratnino.

An enormous amount of time Is de-
voted to the training OF the hand. the
eye. and the brain, but the training Of
the skin is seldom thought OF. Never
theicss. a well trained skin Is more
essential to health than almcst any
other kind Of bodily culture. Tho neg
lect OF the skin must be regarded as
the foundation cause Of q large num-
ber OF chronic maladies. It may al.
most be asserted that man who will
keep his skin In thoroughly healthy
condition may defy almost any known
disease. The experienced horseman
knows very well the Importance Of at
tending to the skin OF the animal un.
der his care. A horse which has
hide.bound skin. with the hair dry and
dingy. dull and lifeless. in appearance.
shows by this fact that his whole body
u in a state Of disease.
A healthy skin is warm. slightly
moist. smooth, reddens quickly when
rubbed or exposed to the action of hot
or cold water. is supple and elastic.
perspires readily under exercise or the
application OF heat, and is free from
plmples. eruptions and discolorations.
To maintain this condition. the Skin
must be subjected to daily bathing and
grooming. Horsemen rub and groom
their charges daily. Wild and domes.
tic animals left free in the field habit
ually groom themselves by vigorous
rubbing against trees or other objects.
Hunters are familiar with this fact.
and often secrete themselves near q
rubbing tree" as a means Of getting
an easy shot at their game. MAJ, Of

The Charity Organization Society OF
New York. In handbook on the pre-
vention OF tuberculosis. encourages
the active campaign against this great
plague and gives a concise summary
Of why" the battle should be waged.
Because more people die OF con-
sumption than from any other dis
ease.
Each year 1895. 900 of the people of
the world die OF 1t. In the United
States over 100000 dlo every year OF
consumption. Every day 5000. and
each minute of the day two persons
fall before this enemy. How many OF
your friends have died of 1t?
Because It Is disease which
spreads from one person TO another.
and any one may catch 1t.
Because It Is chiefly caused by the
filthy habit OF splitting.
Because II Is disease which can be
stopped. and need not spread.
Because every one may and should
help stop 1t.
Because already there is change for
the better. The number of deaths
from consumption Is growing less.
Twenty years ago there were many
more deaths In proportion to the pop
ulatIon than now.
II the tuberculosis death rate Of 1886
had been maintained the first nine
months Of 1902. four thousand more
persons In Manhattan and the Bronx
would have died OF tuberculosis than
actually died In these months.
Could anything be found more In.
spring. more plainly Indicative Of the
need for extending the work against
this disease!
