HIS REASONS.

dent Wilson today explained his
reasons for deciding personally to
present his message to congress

The reasons are very simple. I
think that this is the only digni-

dress the house at the opening OF
a session instead of sending the
address up by messenger and let
ting the clerks read II perfunctori-
ly in the clerks familiar tone Of

sequel of disease particularly fnfec-
tious disease), and metal poison, SUCH
as lead. So working at night or In
dark buildings or dark rooms is injur-
ious to the blood.
Anything that interferes with the
general circulation of the blood, such
as heart disease. tight clothing or the
size of the body, causes fatigue Where
there is diminished lung capacity. such
as consumption of the lungs (phthisis),
there is interference with the oxygen
carrying power Of the blood. Heart
disease (by not having the blood
properly pumped through the body),
the size of the body (because in obese
persons the increase Of the vessels and
distance for the blood to travel make
the heart pump harder) and tight
clothing (by direct interference with

fatigue. Age, sex, climate and seasons
also have much to do with the circula-
ton of the blood, and therefore with
fatigue.
The third great cause OF fatigue ID
poisoning by accumulated waste In the
muscles or poisoning by toxic sub
stances. This accumulation may be due
TO too rapid formation of the products
of waste or it may be due to the
inability of the blood or system to
carry away the waste products. II the
nerve of a muscle is constantly stimu-
lated the muscular contractions become
smaller in extent and finally cease
The muscle is then said to be fatigued.
The sugars and glycogen are burned,
producing energy and leaving as waste
carbon dioxide and Tactic acid. Unless
eliminated these materials act as
poisons-the actual poisons OF fatigue.
Perhaps no cause of fatigue is OF
more importance than the lack OF
drinking water. The products OF waste,
carbon dioxide and Tactic acid, are
taken up by the fluids of the body and
carried to the lungs and kidneys for
elimination. The accumulation OF waste
products Is sometimes due to lack
of drinking water This is assigned as
cause of heat stroke. 1t has been
noticed in the army that the man who
falls from heat stroke is the one whose
canteen is empty.
