THERE are some disadvan-
tages that naturally accrue
where any one policy of
life is carried to an extreme.
On this last point the learned
DR.. Kulmitz, physician to the
King Of Siam, has recently con-
tributed a little pamphlet, a copy
of which the doctor was so kind
as to send me.
In this booklet the claim Is
made that all diseases are caused
by either too much excitement or
not enough.
Excitement, OF course, increases
the heart beat-the pulse runs
up, the eyes begin to glisten,
thought f1ows-all the secretions
are active.
Up to a certain point this is
well, for the digestion is aided,
lungs expanded, and the glands,
through exercise, are in condition
to do their perfect work.
But If the excitement Is con-
tinued beyond this certain point,
the bodily functions become de-
ranged, the nerves get tired of the
tension, and eventually we will
have a case of nerves" variously
known as "Americanitis" or ner-
vous prostratio with a fine ar
ray of local symptoms, covering
every sort of twinge and tired
feeling.
On the other hand are the dis
eases and complaints that come
from lack of excitement-that is,
too much Canned Life. The poor
creatures perish for the lack of a
fresh thought. First in the list of
diseases caused by the lack of
excitement our learned author
names cancer, which he explains
is caused originally by faulty
circulation.
A stoppage occurs. and Nature
tries to relieve the distressed
point by sending more blood to
the spot.
Then we get congestion and
next Inflammation.
A certain amount of excitation
at the right time, the author
ayers, would have freed the sys-
tenn from all congestion and
made cancer impossible.

Woman is a problem creator Il
she:
Does not know how to keep
her baby from having summer
complaint.
Does not know what her child
is doing at school, or whether
the school is efficient.
Sleeps, lives or works in a
badly ventilated room.
Thinks that files or mosaui-
toes or transmissible diseases are
dispensations of Providence,
rather than evidences Of neglect.
Lowers her efficiency as
worker and mother by disobeying
health laws.
Thinks her daughter should be
satisfied with idleness at home
until marriage.
Lies or permits her agent TO
lie about her taxes.
Does penance for Withholding
taxes by small gifts TO uplift
work
Concentrates her attention on
small fractions of her duty and
opportunity as citizen
Thinks she has right to be
supported by some man without
giving value for all she costs.
Notes and quotes public men
inaccurately.
Thinks reform is a question Of
voting. rather than OF Eetting
specific things done
Falls to see that either her
gence needed by democracy is in
telligence as to government, off,
ciai acts, ana community needs,
rather than intelligence as to

The Source of MIR. Ford's Ideal
BY REV. G. F. REISNER.

TTGNRY FORD has been glori-
i / fed greatly because of his
attempt rightly to distrib-
ute his profits. He has selected
a better method than that OF
either Rockefeller or Carnegie.
He ought to go one step further
and reduce the price of his ma
chimes until more people could
use them.
Where did Mr. Ford get his
ideal? 1t did not come from Wall
street. or from atheistic teaching
nor from a mere heart of charity.
| wondered about Mr.. Ford's
church attitude and SO wrote a
trusted friend in Detroit and
learned just what | suspected
Mr.. Ford's people are all church
people. His uncle built a Metho-
dist church entire in Detroit. His
Wife is a member of the Episco-
pal Church. He was raised in
a Methodist atmosphere and likes
the democracy of that denomi-
nation. though he himself does not
support churches. He believes
the common people should have
plenty of money so that they can
support their own churches and
not be dependent on the large
contributions Of the rich.
The teachings OF Jesus are
working their way out into prac-
teal life. Man is his brothers
keeper and he is finding that he

THE PANAMA CANAL.

NJ. f. Sit is far too early as
yet to say just what changes the
Panama Canal will make in the
currents Of commerce. II is fair
TO draw the inference that it will
take much from the transconti-
mental railways, and that 1t will
greatly decrease the business
that is at present done through
the Straits OF Magellan. 1t is al
so well nigh certain that 1t will
have no good results for some of
the Mexican railways, as we'll as
for many of the South American
steamship lines; but we must
wait for some time before we can
tell Just what changes the big
ditch will make.
