ship, was totally destroyed by fire about
six O'Clock last Thursday evening. Mr..
Mealy had kindled fire in the kitchen
stove and gone out to attend to his bees.
In a short time he discovered the house
to be on fire and the fire had gained such
hesdwsy that nothing could be done to
extinguish 1t. The house and all its con-
teuts were destroyed, as we'll as wood
shed, work shop and chicken house
standing nearby. The fire is supposed TO
have originated from an overheated stove
pipe, as there was no chimney In the
house. Mr.. Mesly's loss is total, he hsv-
ing no insurance, but we are notinlormsd
as to how much the loss will be. He also
lost some valuable grated trees, as he
was quite an expert in that line of work.
Misfortune has fallen heavily on Mr.
Mealy. as during the past winter he lost
a good team horse. He was hauling logs
and the animal went through bridge
near Braceville, breaking leg and ha'-
ing to be shot.

THE trend of scientific medicine to-day
is the prevention of acute or infectious
diseases, and in its accomplishment rests
TO a considerable extent our ability to
prevent many of the chronic conditions
which harass and beset human kind
The first factor, and the one which con-
Germs all, in the invasion of acute or in
fictitious diseases, is the lowered resistance
of the individual. This lowered resistance
is brought about in various preyentable
ways, as for example, indiscretions in
diet, over. fatigue, improper dress, worry
anxiety, exposure to untowsrd weather
uusuiably clad, while excess of all sorts
weather social or business always
trends to a lowering Of the vital standard
When this happens, the organism cannot
Withstand the invasion of disease germs.
As these become active, the result is ac-
cording to the weakest link of the in
diyidual. 1t may be an influenza, q
bronchitis, a pneumonia, or some other
preveutsble condition. All people are
not equally susceptible by reason of a
lowered standard, nor is it necessarily in
yited by any one trsnsgression. What
may be an indiscretion for one person
may be all right for another, unless there
be superposed an additional indiscretion.
