Religion and Medicine

sary as medicine, that the want Of reli.
gion frequently defeats the action of
the best medicine.
Many a chronic invalid has searched
in vain for a physical remedy simply
because he has lost his grip on vital
religion, the religion that not only pro-
vides salvation in the world to come,
but soundness of body and mind in the
world that is.
Yes, there is a most intimate rela-
ton between medicine and religion.
Other things being equal, the irreNg-
ious man stands a poor chance of get
ting we'll when he Is sick, while the re-
ligious man frequently gets well In the
most astonishing way after the doctors
have all given him up to die. With a
firm faith in rational religion and
an obedient use of the right remedy a
great many hopeless invalids could be
restored to perfect health.
Well, you have made It clear as to
what you mean by religion. But what
is the remedy you would recommend?
OF course I would recommend differ
ent remedies for different conditions.
But the particular remedy that I am
interested in at this time, the remedy
that meets more chronic ailments than
any other remedy know of. is Peru
ma. Peruna is a remedy for that multi
tudinous group OF ailments that are
dependent upon catarrhal derange-
| ments.

a loving Father controls the destiny
OF mankind are a great deal better
prepared to meet the vicissitudes Of
life and to overcome disease than the
one who has no such faith. A truly
religious man makes a better patient
than an irreligious man.
In using the word religion I am not
referring to any particular kind Of re-
ligion. The Jew and the gentle, the
Catholic and the Protestant, each have
a religion in which they believe. They
also agree in the essentials.
A religious man may believe that It
Is necessary for him to use every
means in his power to get well. He
may believe that 1t Is perfectly proper
for him to employ doctors and take
medicines. But he also believes that
when he has done the best he can
there Is n higher power that has
charge Of his affairs, that absolute JUS
tice will be done him, that no evil thing
can befall a good man. He goes for
ward with confidence, sick or well, rich
or poor, and gets a great deal more
comfort out of life than the man who
has no religion.
I have found myself saying many
times to people who have a chronic all
ment, You need religion as well as
medicine. You need faith In an over
ruling providence that guides every
thing to wise ends; that the affliction
Of disease teaches a lesson that every
one should strive to learn"
This does not mean that sick people
are to sit down and trust that an over
ruling providence will do everything.
Nothing Of the sort. He is to use reme-
dies guided by his best judgment, but
In the use Of them he can believe that all
things are well and that in the end all
things will come out right. Any medi-
cine has better chance to cure a man
who holds such a faith.
Some men are so faithless and I'M
believing, so restless and desperate,
their minds so unsettled. that even the
best of medicine has little chance to
do them any good. Therefore I say
that religion Is often quite as neces-

case of George Dennis Of Caledonia
township VS.. the Fractional District
School Board, consisting of Archi-

Is there any intimate relation be-
tween religion and medicine?
Yes, there Is. The old-time healer
was also the priest. Theology and
medicine have not maintained a sep
arate existence very long. They
used to be one. Yes, there is an init
mate relation between religion and
medicine.
1t Is well known Of a person who
eats with unthankfulness and ILL
natured spirit, that his food will not
have the same effect as II he were in
kindly mood. The same is true OF
medicine. II a person swallows a medi-
cine with suspicion, has no faith I'm its
action, Is more or less afraid of the one
who gives him the medicine, II cannot
do him as much good as IL he had un-
wavering faith In II.

About two-thirds Of all the cloves
come from little island named

south Of the equator, just within sight

ten wide. It is: a low, jungle-covered,
fever-haunted spot, surrounded by
coral reefs and inhabited by indolent,
3unintelligent, and improvidentS natives
and a small handful of Europeans.

The Researc Enoineer,

About a decade ago the great ad-
vantage to be derived from bringing
the scientist directly to the manufac-.
turer's workshop, provided this could.
be done in the proper spirit, becomes
evident, and the institution now we'll
known as the Industrial research
laboratory has gradually become Arm
ly established. There are those who
still maintain, and, no doubt. correct
w. that the worlds greatest dfscov-f
cries come from Independent investi-
gators working alone, often amid great.
hardship, driven on by the fire Of:
their own enthusiasm and complete,
absorption In one idea. Be that as
1t may, the industrial laboratory has
now to it's credit some remarkable
achievements, which would do honor
to any university investigator. 1t IL
also worth noting that these achieve
ments are due in great measure to
that broad dictatorship over research
work which, while not imposing irk--
some restrictions. guides It toward
useful ends. While spectacular!3sre-.
suits bring great credit to Industrial
research in general, and to this de-,
partment I'm particular, 1t seems to
be fact, nevertheless that such de-.
partments represent an excellent In
vestment even when measured by the
value OF their day-to-day services Of q
