CoNGENIAL WORK


ana StreuEtn 10 ESrtoF"
A person in good health is likely to
have a genial disposition, ambition, and
enjoy work.
On the other hand, II the digestive
organs have been upset by wrong food,
work becomes drudgery.
Until recently" writes a Washing
ton girl, II was a railroad stenog-
rapher, which means full work every
day.
Like many other girls alone in a
large city, | lived at a boarding house.
For breakfast it was mush, greasy
meat, soggy cakes. black coffee, etc.
After a few months of this diet /
used TO feel sleepy and heavy In the
mornings. My work seemed a terrible
effort, and | thought the work was to
hame-too arduous.
AT home / had heard my father
speak of a young fellow who went lopg
distances in the cold on Grape-Nuts
and cream and nothing more for breais-
fast
81 concluded IL 1t would tide him
over a mornings heavy work, 1t might
help me, so on my way home N night
1 bought a package and next morning
/ bad Grape-Nuts and milk for break
fast.
~ stuck to Grape-Nuts. and in
lest than two weeks I noticed improve
meat. l can't just tell how well / felt,
but I remember I used to walk the
II blocks to business and knew how
good IL was simply to live.
AS TO my work-well, did you ever
feel the delight of having congenial
worx and the strength to perform 1t?
That's how I felt. / truly believe
there's life and vigor In every grain Of
Grape-Nuts."

Tho Physicians Apotheosis.

From the New York Globe and CONNER
cial Advertiser
The Emmanuel movement seems in
a fair way to become a delight TO the
medical profession. The Emmanuel
clergy of Boston, the mother city of
h new religion. have adopted a set of
rules-framed or approved by Boston
physicians-which in effect declare that
every true believer must have his doc
tor. Rule Nc. / provides that no per-
son shall be received for the Emmanuel
treatment unless after examination and
consent by his family physician, the
examination to be filed with the min
listers records. Rule No. 2 makes Ii
impossible 70 refer the patient for dag
nosis or treatment to any specialist or
assistant saw with the advice and o
sen Of the patients own physician.
And rule No. 3 provides, If you please,
that all patients who are not under the
care of a physician must choose one
and put himself in his care before they
can receive instruction at Emmanuel
church"
Religion could hardly be made more
thoroughly an adjunct Of medicine. The
family physician could not hope for a
more generous a~potheosis. For that is
what the Emmanuel movement be-
comes with the new distribution of au-
th~ority-the family doctor becomes the
high priest and all the reverend clergy
men mere train bearers, acolytes and
bric-a-brac. AS consistently as the
medical profession has fought Christian
Science, that consistency should uphold
the Emmanuel movement. For IL one
is possessed OF the ~negation OF medi-
zine the other could not be more COM
pletely based upo Its whole hearted
affirmation.
But these new rules whatever effect
they may have on the Emmanuel move
ment as something new IN Christian
sectarianism, should be OF substantial
help to hat propaganda in medicine
proper which declares that the doctor
should be considered primarily, not as
a means to cure III when we become Ill,
but as a means TO keep US from be-
coming I'LL. We should go to him when
well In order that we may not have
TO go to him on AM other occasion.
For, as modified, the Emmanuel move
ment would seem almost to declare that
the relations Of the family physician
should be appurtenant. not accidental:
constant, not dependent upon sickness.

women are reported to be smoking on

method of stimulation and sure to un-

THE PASSING OF A LANDMARK.

Parliament will be asked it is
stated, to abolish the ancient Office of
dramatic censor or examiner of plays
and Mr.. George Radford will then be,
come a celebrity out of a job. Rad
ford did, in fact, make the place a
laughing stock of the civilized world
when he prohibited a revival of Gil
bert & S%ullivan's "The Mikado" be-
cause some Japanese personages were
about to visit London and their feel
ings would be hurt by a revival of the
famous opera. Among the other plays
that came under his ban were George
Bernard Shaw's Mrs. Warren's Pro-
fession," D'Annunio's La Cetta
Morte," Ibsen's Ghosts" and Maeter-
linck's "Monna Vauna."
He has conducted his office in an
arbitrary manner, until the Office it
self has become a nuisance. In the
twentieth century the people can
judge their own plays, and what the
box says is always needed. Mr.. Rad
ford's Office belongs to the dead past
and the twentieth century no more
needs it than a dog needs two tails.
Radford and his job have simply out
lived their usefulness and parliament
will no doubt gladly abolish both.
