HOW TO GET PNEUMONIA

The Philadelphia Inquirer says:
The best way to get pneumonia is to
gorge yourself with food and then
shut yourself up in a room, turn on
all the heat possible and Supply
yourself in fetid m os p h e..
Most persons think pneumonia or a
heavy "cold" comes from sitting in a
draft or in a cold room. No person
ever contracted pneumonia simply by
reason of low temperature. There is
no danger, although much discomfort,
in getting chilled unless you are damp
from rain or PRECIPITATION at the time.
The late Admiral Melville relates that
although he spent two years in the
arctic region, suffering almost incred-
IDLY from cold and hunger, he never
contracted "cold," that is to say, in
fammation of the lungs or mucous
membranes of the head, until he re-
turned to civilization

LET US PROLONG LIFE

The time has arrived when physi-
clans and scientists recognize the fact
that correct living goes farther toward
prolonging the span of life than any
medicine which may be administered,
needful though it may be at times.
But in large number of cases we
need medicine only because we violate
the rules of health by over-eating, and
overwhelming and by keeping late
hours. Then many of us give way to
our emotions or passions, allowing
every trivial occurrence to derange
our bodily functions by their intens-
ity. This is not however generally
understood. A mans physical and
mental powers are more frequently
demoralized by allowing the passions
full sway, than they are by wrong-eat-
ing, late hours and booze.
The necessity for relaxation is also
being recognized. The fact that peo-
pie have neglected to find joy in re-
creation, which is an instinct in child
hood, until their souls are starved and
their interest in life destroyed, has
caused an organization to be formed
which meets yearly, the avowed pur-
pose of which is the renewal of this
primitive characteristic in man.
Not very long ago, some of these
people met to relate experiences, dis
cuss new plans, and to gather new
courage for this national crusade of
happiness. The idea is that most peo-
pie need to get away from the Puri-
tanical ideas in which they and their
ancestors have been so long reared
and to recognize the fact that there is
a gospel of recreation, provided it is of
the proper kind, as well as gospel of
religion.
Ministers are embodying these views
in their methods of procedure, organ
ling brotherhoods and baseball teams,
opening their churches as places of re-
creation, or converting their grounds
into Fairgrounds for children, and in
other ways looking afer the well-being
of their people and others as WELL
Many are now demanding that the
! schoolhouse be turned into commun-
ity center, where old and young may
gather for rest and amusement that
it may thus become the successful op-
ponent of the places Of amusement OF
doubtful character.
