interested in his telephone system,
which government experts say is one
of the best on this continent. The

those found in London, Berlin or Paris.

A gentleman recently wrote to the
Home Health Club, giving a long
list of symptoms, including consti-
patton, nervousness, and some kid
ney trouble, and occasional alta cks
Of rheumatism, and asked for help.
For years he had eaten his "three
daily squares" as matter Of
course. He was given the necessary
knowledge and taught how to treat
himself.
Some four or five months have
elapsed and he again writes that he
now considers himself a we'll man,
and further states that this is the
first time he was told the how and
the why Of his troubles. knowledge
with brains and perseverance mixed
are powerful combination.
Take for instance, rheumatism
which is SO frequently the result of
auto-intoxication. So many who
suffer with this symptom expect a
cure by merely using some local ap-
plication to the parts affected and
taking internally some preparation
which is supposed to counterfeit the
effects Of the uric acid in the system,
without giving the least thought to
correcting the diet and habits which
are responsible for the condition.
The same that has been said of
rheumatism may be said in most in
stances of headaches, loss of energy
and ambition, which is ninety-nine
cases out Of hundred due to auto
intoxication, catarrh, consumption,
nervous Hreakdowns, biliousness,
gall stones, cancers, etc. The list
might be prolonged indefinitely.
Does cutting out the appendix
when inflammation of this organ re-
suits from constipation and impro-
per habits and diet remove the
cause? Does removing infamed ov-
aries, resulting from a lesion in the
spine remove the cause? Does re-
moving an organ which is prolapsed
or fallen down as result of fabby
ligament and muscles, remove the
causeq The answer to all these
questions is obvious. Then, would it
not show greater proficiency on the
part Of the physician to find the real
and the first cause and if possible
remove it? It would.
AS has been shown, -intoxi-
cation is the cause Of most Of the
ills Of the human body, and layman
possessed of the correct knowledge
Of the simple laws governing the
functions of his body can do much
towards keeping his body in health.
CLUB NOTES.
Dear Doctor:
Please give me your opinion in re-
gard to young people marrying, the
grandparents of one party being first
cousins to the parents of the other
party. l also wish to ask you in re-
gard to my three year old girl, who
is constipated. Would you advise
my giving her olive oil?
MRS. E. C. D.
It would be my opinion that there
could be no possible harm for people
to marry who are SO distantly related
as fourth cousins. In regard to your
