The Dress Of Women.

The old Greeks had a proverb ex-
pressing their belief that the mother
should be strong and vigorous in or
der that the sons might be brave and
mighty in. battle; accordingly, in the
palmiest days of Greece, laws existed
which required every woman to en-
gage in the practise of gymnastics and
to give minute attention to ali the re-
quirements Of hygienic laws, not that
she might be able to enter contests
in the arena or to fight battles in de-
tense Of her country. but that her
sons might be victorious in all the
conflicts of life, in peace as well as in
war. To be the mother of sons who
were noted for strength, vigor and en-
durance was the highest honor any
Grecian woman could enjoy.
Do all mothers think of these things
when they treat their bodies very
much as they do mass of dough in
making bread, molding it into such
shape as may happen to suit the fancy
of the reigning queen of fashion, with
out considering that the artificial
shape produced may be in the highest
degree incompatible with the physical
health and conduce to no small extent
to the constitutional feebleness which
their unborn sons and daughters must
hereafter endure?
Babies are simply buds; hence they
must share the character of the par
ent stock. A weak-waisted mother
transmits to her son or daughter a
predisposition to kindred feebleness
of structure. The mother whose liver
and stomach are so carried out of
place that they cannot perform their
functions in proper manner, if the
does not actually transmit to her sons
and daughters a displacement of the
stomach and liver, gives to them a
predisposition to deformities of this
sort.
That large responsibility rests
upon women because of their neglect
to care for their bodies. and because
OF the homage they pay to fashion,
cannot be doubted. The woman who
starts out in good earnest to learn to
live one hundred years, and who de
sires that her sons and daughters
shall follow her in such laudable In
dertaking, will certainly give this MAJ
ter the careful consideration which
will lead her to take her stand with
thousands of other intelligent women
who have declared their emancipation
from the tyrannous fetters of fashion
and who believe it their inalienahle
right to accept what civilization has
SO long denied them-the God-given
freedom to breathe and move without
restraint.

Help for the Poor consumptive.

The following appeal to philanthro-
pists. in the fifth revised edition of
the Illinois State Board of Health's
of tuberculosis, has attracted wide
attention:
Simple as may seem the directions
to the sufferer from consumption; !;
plain as may be the course by which
he may find health and may be given
new lease of life, it must be remem-
bered that there are, among the five
million people of the great state of
Illinois. hundreds of sufferers who
are unable to avail themselves of
even these simple means of cure
Fresh air, sunlight, proper methods of
living and reasonable rest are not
available to the man who struggles
night and day for the mere necessar-
les of life. The hard-worked woman
with helpless children depending upon
her must labor in the dark and d.ngy
sweatshop and live in the stuffy tene-
ment, although she may know that in
such surroundings consumption is
rapidly placing the mark of death
upon her. The poor consumptive
must live.
mo better opportunity for practi.
cal charity ever existed; no greater
privilege was ever offered than is
held out to him who would provide
the means for the poor consumptive
to regain his health and face the bat
tie for life and for existence on an
equal footing with his fellows. Those
who are giving fortunes for the ad-
vancement of education, of science, of
art and even of religion. will do well
to pause and consider II saving the
life of our fellow man and restoring
him to the helpless ones dependent
upon him Is not ncbler and better
thing than the elevation of culture to
its highest plane or the carrying of
learning to the natives of foreign
shores"

CARE OF THE BODY
6 How to Acquire and Retain the Priceless Posses
I of Good Health

Milk as a Source of Infection.


The Anti-Tuberculosis Society of
Battle Creek, Mich, gave an interest
ing exhibition recently at the Santa
rum in that city. The state inspector
of milk, assisted by the local health
officer and the superintendent of the
sanitarium at Battle Creek, Mich, has
been investigating the condition of
the dairies that supply milk to the
people of the city, and the results of
the investigation, as shown by stereop-
ticon views, afforded an object lesson
that must certainly be effective.
Photographs were taken of the barns
and stables where cows are kept, and
of the barnyards, and pictures of these
were thrown on the screen. The farm
ers around Battle Creek are certainly
as enterprising as those in any other
section of the country, and conditions
there may be taken as a fair average;
yet the dairy inspector for this dis
trict stated that there were but few
dairies where the conditions were
strictly sanitary and proper, while
there were many which were decided
ly the reverse. Views were then
shown upon the screen, from photo
graphs recently taken of dairy barns
and yards, some showing extremely
bad conditions-stables full of filth
and barnyards where cows stood in
ponds of manure water which could
not fail to contaminate their drinking
water supply. Dirty COWS can give
only dirty milk, and such milk is un-
fit for human food. Other pictures
showed proper cooling facilities where
the milk was cooled as soon as it was
taken from the COW, and without con-
Examination from stable odors, and
where the cows had clean, light and
well ventilated stables. Photographs
were also shown of various cultures"
as affected by diseased milk, as they
appeared under the microscope. First,
photograph of culture" from pure
milk was thrown on the screen. 1t
showed merely blank space. Then
samples of the growths in the ordinary
Of germ colonies were revealed-ty-
phoid, diphtheria, tuberculosis and
others. 1t is safe to say that few
who saw the exhibition will hence
forth use milk without knowing def
nitely the conditions under which it
was produced. 1t was encouraging,
however, to know that the dairymen
show a commendable alacrity to i'm
prove conditions.
No human being could live where
the majority of COWS are stabbed
without speedily contracting fevers
and consumption; and investigations
have shown that cows are no less sus-
ceptible. In. this one item of milk, we
have the source of a vast deal of tu-
berculosis and typhoid, which is Who'll
ly preventible. This being the case,
the continuance of such conditions is
a crime. Let every community Or
ganize itself into health society, and
demand, for one thing, pure milk
supply, and the good results will
speedily be manifest.

Every housekeeper should know
that If they will buy Defiance Cold

will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron. but because

Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. II your grocer tries to sell you
a 12-oz. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has

Truth About the Popular proprietary
Medicines"

meOlClncS.
The recent campaign against the
use of proprietary medicines, conduct
ed in the columns of The Ladies'
Home Journal and Golfers Weekly.
has evoked an answer from the Com
mittee on Legislation of the Proprie-
tary Association. The committee says:
I'm considering the question raised
by recent attacks upon proprietary
medicines, every reasonable man will
edmit that there is wide and legiti-
mate field for the manufacture and
sale of medicines already prepared
for general use and easily obtainable
at all times and everywhere. E.
AS a matter of fact these medicines
are not patented at all, and the popu-
lar use of the word patent in connec-
tion with them is misnomer. Any
pharmacist will tell you that practi-
cally the only patent medicines in
use to-day are those which are manu-
factured either by foreign or domestic
pharmaceutical houses, and which are
now almost exclusively dispensed by
physicians or designated by them in
their prescriptions.
"The medicines which are now the
subject Of wholesale attack by Mr..
Box and Editor Hapgood are the old
fashioned family remedies properly
described as proprietary medicines.
They are the favorite remedies among
millions of people all over the coun-
try; and, Notwithstanding the con-
stant effort Of some physicians to ere
ate prejudice against them. no one
ever yet heard of any of the millions
of users of such remedies asking for
legislation or other action adverse to
them"

Laughter as an Aid to Digestion.

1t is great mistake to allow the
mind to dwell upon the physical proc
esses going on during digestion. II
one keeps thinking about what he has
eaten, or is just going to eat, and won-
dering whether or not it will agree
with him, If he eats with fear and
trembling" so to speak, his state of
mind has depressing influence upon
his stomach and that organ rebels.
The stomach is bashful, one might
say; the stomach. the liver and other
organs are sensitive to criticism and
obstruction; hence, when one sits
down at the dinner table and begins to
talk about his "peristaltic woes" his
stomach will very likely get into a
sort of stage fright SO that it cannot
do its work and it will have to sus-
pend business for time.
The movements of the stomach dur
ing the process Of digestion are SINH
lar to the motion of churning. When
one is dressed properly, every time he
takes breath the diaphragm comes
down with good hearty squeeze upon
the stomach and shakes 1t up: the
stomach is in this manner jolted back
and forth, and that is part of the d.
gestive process. This is why breath
ing exercises after breakfast and din.
ner are valuable.
Laughter is technically called cachi-
nation, and when one cachinates well.
his diaphragm shakes his stomach
well; 1t is a kind of merry dance: the
stomach trips the light fantastic toe,"
so to speak, and the food is set into
such a commotion that the digestive
process is thereby hastened.
hearty laugh stimulates the vaso-
motor centers and the spasmodic con-
traction of the blood vessels causes
the blood to flow quickly, sending a
warm glow to the feet and limbs and
enlivening the stomach into increased
activity. There is no better aid to
digestion than hearty laugh.
