JUDO { DE Lacy
/ SPEAK HERE
Man Who Made Washington
Juvenile Court Famous to
Explain Its Work.

Announcement was made yesterday
that Judge w. II. DeLacy, OF Washing
ton. who has made national reputa-
ton second only to that of Judge Lind
say. of Denver. in dealing with youth-
full prisoners. would deliver an address
before the Juvenile Protective Society
of Virginia in the hall OF the House
OF Delegates on Thursday night The
movement under way here In behalf
of this society has met With the most
cordial support, the need OF such a
court having been explained to the
satisfaction OF all right-thinlttng peo-
pie. Judge DeLacy, however, Will show
what the system has done elsewhere,
how 1t has helped wayward boys, how
1t has redeemed them without the
shame of being sent to jail to associate
with hardened criminals.
Boys in Washington, who inadver-
tently fall into the hands OF the law,
are not afraid or ashamed to face the
juvenile Judge If they can halfway
explain their trouble.
Kindness has been one of the main
assets of that court. Out in Denver
Judge Lindsay's work made him the
most popular man in the city, which
was proved by his recent election
against Overwhelming odds. and in
Washington Judge DeLacy has made
name for himself equally as good.
While the address is to be delivered
to the Juvenile Protective Society OF
Virginia. it's officers are particularly
anxious that persons interested in the
work and especially members of the
General Assembly attend. An open in
vitation. therefore. is extended to all

DEVICES or The BODY.
The Cough, sneexs and Sigh Are
Measures Of Self Proseetion.

One of the most interesting fact
about the human body is its powcI
of self preseryation-its power o.
evading or overcoming the thou
sand and one conditions which, un-
less corrected, would be injuriou.
or destructive.
Among the most common OF
these acts of self preservation are
the cough, the sneeze and the sigh.
Every one is familiar with these
acts, yet few people ever ask them
selves the cause. and fewer still
could explain them.
One Of the simplest of the body's
devices for self protection is the
cough. The cough i merely blast
of air propelled from the lungs in
such a manner as to forciblv dis
lodge some foreign substance which
has been drawn into the throat, the
windpipe or the tubes leading TO
the lungs.
membranes lining these
parts of the body are very sensitive,
and when a foreign matter comes in
contact with them an alarm mes
sage is at once sent to the nervous
headquarters" and the result is
the sudden. spasmodic expulsion of
breath which is called a cough.
Very of-en the cough is produced
by the irritation of the accumula-
ton Of mucus on the surface men
toned. In this case, as in the case
Of a foreign body. the cough is
merely a means Of expelling the
matter.
So, You see. cough is merely one
of natures methods Of self protec-
ton. Cough cures contain some
drug which, by paralyzing the
nerves, prevents the cough and al
lows the mucus TO accumulate.
Thus the cough medicine does
only harm The cure for a cough
is TO cough-to cough until the ex-
cesslye deposit Is removed. Mean 1
time, Of course, measures should be
taken to prevent added deposits.
A sneeze Is exactly like a cough.
save that the obstruction occurs in
the nostrils owing TO the deposit of
some irritant or foreign matter
and that the blast of air is thrown
out through the nose instead of
through the throat and mouth.
Why do we sigh: When grieved
,r depressed the tendency is to hold
he breath. This means that the
oody suffers for oxygen, and the
ong. deep breath which we call
ugh is merely a means by which the
,ody obtains fer itself the reces- II
