The Time to Make a Fight.
Bernarr McFadden in Physical Culture:

Bernarr McFadden in Physical Culture:
At the first symptom of an acute
illness, the average individual i'm.
mediately throws up his hands, u
he "gives up" to the illness. He al
lows it to master him. He mentally
acknowledges that he is sick and in
competent. regardless of his condi-
ton previous to this, and the illness
becomes the master hereafter.
Under such circumstances, if you
are not sick, you are liable to become
seriously so. Especially is the state
ment true if you have adopted the
usual methods of cure. You "give
up" you go to bed. The activity
to which you are accustomed ceases
entirely. The vital organs depend
upon these activities as a needed
stimulus, and when these conditions
exist, every organ of the body loses
energy. and naturally adds to the
seriousness of the sickness.
| would say again. again and
again, don't give up to illness. Don't
go to bed until you have to be car
ried there. If you "put up" this
kind of fight you will hardly know
the meaning of an acute illness that
is prolonged or serious. Acute ILL
ness only becomes serious when you
lie in bed all day, heavily covered,
with depleted circulation, partially
paralyzed functions and with con-
fined poisoned air that is the result
of closed windows and the fear of
draughts. to breathe.
Disease rarely secures the mastery
unless you give up to it.

What the N. DIS Say.

The society for the study of alco-
hol and other narcotics held its an
nual meeting at Atlantic City. N. j.,
during the sessions Of the American
Medical Association. Some excellent
papers were presented. The one
that excited the most comment was
that of DR.. T. A. Nichol of New
York City, upon Alcohol and School
Children" DR.. Nichol has for some
years been investigating the records
and habits of children of drinking
parents, especially in the poorer
quarters. He stated that about so
so per cent of these children drink
liquor, from a glass Of beer week
to five glasses a day, 73 per cent
were billiards in school work, and 81
per cent suffered from some func-
tional or organic disorder. He told
of 100 young people between the
ages of twelve and nineteen whose
records he had. 20 per cent Of these
have given birth to illegitimate
children, and so per cent have ven
ereal diseases.
A very scholarly paper was read
by DR.. T. A. Williams of Washing
ton, D. c., on "Psychasthenia and
Inebriety." DR.. Williams is nerve
specialist of high standing. He goes
to England soon to read a paper be-
fore the British Medical Association.
He said that the constant repression
Of child, the eyer-recurring
don ts' destroy self-reliance and
initiative, and leave the child depend
ent upon others for entertainment.
This in time leads to the use Of al
cohol or drugs to drown the sense Of
self-distrust and dissatisfaction. A
child's healthy impulses should not
be constantly thwarted, or he be-
comes lacking in resourcefullness
which is sure forerunner Of ennui,
Of the loafing habit, of the need of
something to pass the time, so proli-
fic source of drug habits.
DR.. Douglas of Dorchester, Mass,
said that drunkards are resorting to
morphine pills to sober up on, and
this is leading to double drug slav-
erv.
DR.. D. H. Kress of Washington
spoke of diet as factor both in the
making and unmaking of a drunk
ard. Spices, limburger cheese and
meat in excess were referred to as
causing physical disturbances which
lead to alcohol or drug craving.
DR.. McNicholl stated that the
schools of New York city are not OBJ
serving the alcohol physiology law
so far as he has been able to learn
from interviewing authorities in the
matter
A medical temperance luncheon
followed the scientific sessions. The
chief speaker at this function was
Sir James Grant, a distinguished
physician of Toronto. who was in at
tendance upon the meetings Of the
American Medical Association. He
gave very eloquent address upon
the temperance movement in Cana
da, and spoke with enthusiasm of
the way women were helping to do
away with the social use of alcoholic |
drinks by substituting delicious
fruit juices unfermented. He said
the present generation is applying
common-sense to the alcohol prob !
lem. and asking. "Why should we
continue to take into our bodies that |
which can only do injury to them?"

A Peculiar Situation.

A little old woman came into church
late one Sunday and was somewhat
fustered when she found some one she
did not know in her seat. Leaning
over, she said to him nervously: e

occupewing my pie" = Philadelphia

Appleton Press: Bro. Whiteman
is urging his city to sue the country
at large for libel because it has
been reported that there was a
cyclone at Ortonville. First thing
we know it will be construed to be
libelous to say a man has the collie.
The fact of the matter is, there was
a real rip-snorting twister come out
Of the hills of Dakota, killed bus
driver, riddled some houses on the
bottoms, upset a train Of cars,
killed a few dagoes, stripped the
sand dome off an engine and then
took a look at the city proper, after
which it wisely skewed off to the
right to look for South American
revolution to help it. You couldn't
expect cyclone of ordinary judge
ment to 60 up single-handed against
a proposition as tough as Ortonville.
An exchange relates how the farm
ers around Barnum are getting
three or four cents a dozen above
the market by selling through the
local creamery strictly fresh eggs
with the date the egg was delivered
by biddy stamped on each egg, as
we'll as number identifying the
farmer. Quality counts immensely
on eggs, and those who are success
ful in raising them would do we'll
to look up this kind of market.
Western Publisher: One of the
oldest typographical errors that we
have seen, and that in publication
for printers, appears in the July
number of the National Printer
Journalist. In describing the for
estry building, the largest log house
ever built, the article says: "The
dogs used in the exte Tor of the
building are being left in the rough,
while those in the interior will have
the bark removed"
Marshall Reporter: The anti-sa-
loon League had detective in Tyler
for the past two weeks looking after
the minor saloon trade. Jim Hodg-
man, a nineteen year old boy, got
what he called malt in Phil. Ehret's
saloon, says the Journal; the witness
got beer from the same faucet and
it cost the saloon keeper $500 to
get clear. The Anti-Saloon man is
E. M. Stuart and he is reported as
being pretty clever at this work.
The dairy population of the Unit
ed States is about 81 100000, or one
cow to every five people. The aver
age yield. according to official fig
ures, is only about $500 pounds a
year or roughly, 5 quarts a day on
the average. 1t is figured that each
person in the country eats about 20 |
pounds of butter in a year.

FIELD DAY.
Last Monday dawned a little
dark and cloudy somewhat to
the CONSERVATION of those who
were anticipating Field Day
pleasures at Ogallah, but by 1920
the clouds lifted and buggies,
wagons, autos, and horseback
riders were seen vending their
way to the eastward and by two
o'clock it was estimated that
1000 people were assembled on
the grounds west OF Ogallah
where the sports of the day were
held The Ellis band furnished
excellent music for the occasion
and was much enjoyed by all for
Ellis has band it can justly be
proud of. The only disappoint-
ment of the day was the failure
of the balloon ascension. A
fresh, brisk wind sprung up and
after two attempts were made to
fillsthe balloon it had to be aban-
doned on account of the strength
of the wind. The Ogallah peo-
pie were much pleased with the
success of the day and say that
they never saw more orderly
crowd or things move along as
nicely as they did on this occa-
sion. Prof. Dickens of Manhat-

GOVERNMENT IS LOOKING
FOR WATER POWER SITES

The apparent discrepancy between
this announcement of policy and the
action of the secretary of the interior
in restoring to entry the power site
Withdrawals is explained by the adu'ln
istration by stating that the land
should not have been withdrawn until
the department knew that it was valu-
able for power site purposes. 1t IS
claimed that there is nc special knoa.-
edge about these lands but that they
were withdrawn pending examinavi IL.
Ballinger says he will do his examining
of the lands first and the Withdrawing
afterwards. When he has the info;ma-
ton he seeks, he will present it to con
gress with the Taft idea of the eonser
walton of water power sites.
Whether the Taft bill will be the same
as that recommended by Roosevelt. in
several of his messages in which he de-
nounced the water power trust, it is i'm
cav that they want to know condition.
nossible to learn. Government ofic''ls
the contemplated legislation.
The present administration is PRO
ceeding on the theory that if congress
wants to conserve the water power
sites of the public domain, it must pass
a law. The lands thus valuable Will
be withdrawn from entry as fast as icy
are classified, but if congress fails to
pass a conservation law, it will be TAX
en- as an indication that the law makers
of the country want the power sites
treated as any other public land, and
the land will be Immediately restored
to entry again.
