lesson? Just now the United States
Senate is wrestling with the House
antitrust bills. These bills would
prevent repetition OF the Now Haven
steal. They would make such bold bur
glaries extremely difficult of opera

of events, is it strange that Presi-
dent Wilson and the country should
scrutinize carefully the affiliations Of
those who would prevent the passage
Of those bills? Is 1t strange that the
country should place little faith in
the objections of certain big bust
ness interests and demand the pas

Dr.. Brady's Health Talks

From the hyglcnlc standpoint. the
recent dictum OF tho great English
physician that people battle too much
nowadays. has much to corroboratc
It. To keep cool is a hygienic duty.
And the bathing habit Is of doubtfu,
utility for this purpose
There is no denying that a modern
bathroom has cool. tempting look
these torrid days. II does seem as
though n cool shower bath or plunge
In the cool water would make ono
comfortable for the rest of the day.
But does 1t?
What regulates body Temperatures?
The external environment-.air water
clothing? No. The body tcmperature
is regulated by the nervous system,
and tile nervous system reacts in ne
culiar ways to external Impressions
