Of the long ago had remedies and
cures in keeping with these foolish
ideas. They were honest but they
didn't know any better.
The nineteenth and twentieth CEN
turtles have seen greater progress
made in discovering the origin and
means of prevention of disease than
all the other centuries that have
passed since the world began. The
microscope and the test tube have
driven the demons and the amulets,
the wizards wand and the medicine
mans incantatiOns into oblivion for
ever.
We know what cause most of the
common diseases. We know that
such diseases as pneumonia plague,
lagrippe, smallpox, meningitis, dys-
EMERY and many others are caused
by germs or seeds that get into the
human body, grow rapidly and pro-
duce poison that weakens the body
and in many instances destroys life.
The germs or seeds are enemies OF
human health. They are too small
to be seen without the microscope
but they may easily be seen with it.
The person who never gets these
tiny seeds into his body will never
have any of the germ diseases. Man:
people who are honest and are in o
measure enlightened do not believe
that diseases come from tiny seeds,
but their unbelief does not disprove
what all enlightened people know to
be true.
Now the body has a wonderful
way Of fighting these tiny enemies
that enter to destroy. There is :.
standing army in the body ready fo''
service on the shortest notice. This
standing army is composed OF tda
white corpuscles of the blood. These
are the soldiers of defence and they
are always on patrol duty, going lihe
policemen into every part of the
body to discover any enemy that
may have entered. If typhoid
seed. or tuberculosis seed, or seed If
any other deadly disease is found in
the body, il is at once pounced
upon by the white cOrpuscles. A
conflict to the very death follows. If
the corpuscles are numerous enough
and healthy enough they will over
power the disease seed and destroy
it; if they are not numerous and
strong enough to win out in the
battle the seed will find lodging in
some suitable place, will multiply
and create a poison that soon pro-
duces a fever and brings about Il
sickness that may result in death to
the individual. So you see, the ar
bitter of life and death is the littla
white corpuscle that never sleeps on
duty but watches like a soldier for
an enemy that may enter thru the
mouth, the nose, the skin or by
sbillt blii'l way, W udi III tiic Douy
You probably wonder what this
has TO do with the relation of alc0
hOl to health and disease. II has
just this: II a foreign army should
invade the United States there is an
army here ready to battle with them
and drive the enemies out. AS long
as our soldiers are strong and sobc:
they will take care of the enemies
and save the nation from pillage
But you make the soldiers Of ont
army drunk, or weaken them by any
other means and you make them in
capable of driving the enemies out.
They cannot do their duty unles,
they are healthy and sober. A drunk
en- army could never save our nation
from capture and destruction.

WEDDING SUGGESTIONS

A bride who finds spider on her
wedding dress may consider herself
blessed.
The bride who dreams OF fairies the
night before her marriage will be
thrice blessed.
IL the groom carry miniature
horseshoe In his pocket he will always

Before entering this discussion IL
will be important for you to under
stand something about how the body
fights disease.
For thousands Of years the causes
Of the most familiar diseases were
unknown. People became sick and
died and no one knew why. Moth
ing could be seen in the blood or
elsewhere in the body to account
for deadly maladies so people many
ages ago decided that the gods sent
sickness and death among people as
a punishment for sin. People be-
lieved this for centuries and GEN.
turtles and many still think that
when friend dies il pleases the
Lord to take this friend away. The
wisest OF men have had all sorts OF
erroneous ideas about the causes Of
disease and the greatest medical men
