We Are III Because We Are
Dying, Not Dying Because

Berlin, Oct. I've do not sdie be-
cause we are i'll. We are i'll because
we are dying" Such is the startling
theory embodied in two works entitled
The Critical Days of Men" and "Pe-
riodicity in the Human Organism %
which have made sensation among
Austrian and German men of science.
Their author Is DIR. Hermann Swo-
boda, one of the best known special
lists In the Austrian capital. and a
"privatdocent" of Vienna university.
That most of the ills we suffer come
from within, not from without. and
that the human body at regular inter-
walls gets into state of weakness
which makes 1t unable to resist dis
ease. such is DR.. Swoboda's theory.
based upon years of study and careful
observation both on himself and on
his patients.
Hitherto, in medicine, the theory
has ruled that ailments mostly come
from without, either as the result of
contagion. or infection, or as the re-
suit OF some mistake in the sufferers
way Of life. The new science of bac-
teriology confirms that view. DR..
'Swoboda does not deny bacteriology.
and. Of course. he admits contagion
and infection. but he declares that
the body is autonomous" in the
sense that 1t itself determines wheth-
er 1t shall take disease from these
outside causes. The body has certain
regularly recurring days when It ia
weak and run down. These are its
Critical days." and they repeat them
selves at fixed intervals in accordance
with the law Of periodicity. which oc-

pendently Of any outside cause, we
may suffer on our critical days from
headaches. neuralgia, being "out of
sorts" (shown In insomnia and inahil-
ity to work., and scores of other mi
nor complaints. II there ia an outside
cause. such as infection, we may fall
victims to 1t on, our critical days.
whereas on other days we might pass
through much worse danger Of infec-
tton unscathed. DR.. swoboda afiirms
that In normal individuals man's
critical stage recurs every twenty
three days. ".
The 6rst critical day Of mans life
is his day OF birth, and every twenty
third day thereafter is a day of weak
