URGES CHECKING Of
I~NDISCRIMINATE
MARRIAGES

l. N&5#A@5
Providence, R. I, June THAI
every human being IN the United
States, or elsewhere for the matter
deemed physically or mentally unfit
should be prevented by national laws
from marrying, and that a commits.
sion Of experts should be appointed
to pass on the fitness Of each would
be bride or bridegroom, IS the asser-
Ition Of Bis b op McVickar
Of the Protestant Episcopal church
of Rhode Island, and sounds
the note of a reform which he de-
~clares is likely to spread from one
end Of the country TO. the other.
Bishop MeVickar asserts that he
makes these recommendations only
after the most careful consideration
Of the subject and and after having
spent years in accommodating facts
relative to his deductions. I fully
believe : he says, that in less than a
generation we shall see national
Legislation that will check indiscrimi-
nate marriage. and which will prevent
the propaganda Of disease, both men
tai and physical. The average pub
lie does not as yet realize il, but there
has been q steady although nnobtrn-
sive advancement IN legislation look
ing toward the prevention Of mar
rage between those physically and
mentally unfit.
There should be laws passed which
will make It impossible for the ha-
bitual, hopeless criminal, the person
showing ineipient idiocy Or insanity,
Or the tuberculosis patient, to get
married and transmit that disease to
descendants.
The working out Of ! plan that
would make those things entirely fea-
sible, Of course, is . hard proposition.
It might be possible for a man and q
woman to have d certificate of their
physician as a guarantee that they
were fitted for marriage. Il would
probably be necessary il each State
OF large city. The members Of which
would decide on each applicant

About one year ago | was taken
sick with a terrible pain in my right
side. My family physician pronounced
1t appendicitis. About two weeks
ago / received your Almanac and read
in it about weak kidneys, and my
back hurting me so much, | thought
/ would try your Swamp-Root and to
nv great establishment, after using
one bottle. expelled three gall stones,
which weighed 1876 grains-just think
of it, My kidneys are not well yet,
and so I have concluded to continue
with Swamp-Root Mr.. Schwake, the

appendicitis and that the doctor had
made a mistake. 1t was no doubt,
gall stones that caused the trouble.
or they would not have come away so
soon after commencing with Swamp
Root
