as large as those that had been given
distilled drinking water.
The reason that boiling the water
does not make It harmless rests upon
the fact that this water Is so full OF
minerals that the salts are not re-
moved by boiling. Other experiment
ers have substantiated the findings of
the Swiss savant.
Infectious ailments, the germs or
toxins of which lodge in or irritate
the luckless, ductless thyroid, also
give rise to goitres. Disturbances Of
the tissues which propagate the
human race, as well as in all of the
aforementioned glands, may be asso-
ciated with goitres. Injury, irrita-
ton, bruises and heredity may all be
sources of different types of goitre
Tumors and cancers of the thyroid
are also called goitres.
Excessive muscular activity, emo
tional stress and fits of anger, jeal-
ousy, envy and pessimism call for
such an oversupply of the thyroid
juices that this organ begins to pro-
duce its liquid soul stuff in excess.
An overproduotion means distension,
expansion and engagement on the
honeycomber spaces in the gland.
The upshot is turgid, swollen mass
at the beak of your craw. This is
your goitre.
This not only explains why fits of
passion, rage, grouchiness and a nag
ging spirit may cause Boitres, but it
gives a clue to the wise ones for both
the prevention and the cure.
yObviously, those with happy, sunny,
placid, calm and contented tempera-
ments, those who always see the
bright and pleasant sides of even the
depressing things, will not only pre-
vent the formation of goitres, but
also will tend to cure one already de-
veloped.
Methods of Cure.
While iodine, iodides, sharp pres
sure, osteopathic manipulation or
Swedish movements may reduce some
examples OF goitre to a smaller size,
other kinds will be thereby injured.
Pressure, massage and iodine will so
injure the thyroid, If AFFILIATED with
certain maladies, that a simple goitre
will become a vicious one.
Be this as 1t may, most goitres are
like unwritten letters and unspoken
words--better left alone. In other
words, never trouble trouble until
trouble troubles you. Ninety >odd
goitres in every hundred in this coun-
try are of no more Importance and
cause no more symptoms than peb-
BILE on the beach. Until some scan
dal-mongering busybody tells you
that you have one you were no more
aware of it than was Adam of his
nudity. Better, then, leave well
enough alone.
IL by some turn of chance the per-
son with pumpkin-like goitre suf-
fers myriad of distressing distem-
pers, treatment with anti-thyroidin,
thymin, or, better, an operation by
the best surgeon may be carried out.
The call for these are, happily, not
many.

Never before in the history of the
French republic has the motto of the
French Revolution, Liberty. Equal
ity and Fraternity" been so appli-
cable as it is now, during the present
European war.
The great war tragedy has leveled
all classes. The sharp social, politi-
cal and religious lines which were
drawn tightly few months ago have
now disappeared and the people have
been drawn together~by a common
cause. Men and women of all classes,
ambitions and creeds are working to-
gether without clashing for the one
great end. Frenchwomen of the
gentility have taken into their homes
the destitute wives and children of
private soldiers, and have gone into
the stores as clerks and as walters in
hotels and restaurants to take up the
work laid down by men who have
answered their country's call to arms.
There is something about a great
sorrow, disaster or catastrophe which
kills prejudice and dispels hatred,
envy and jealousy. and brings hui
man beings together as nothing else
does.
Husbands and wives who have been
estranged for many months have been
brought together again by the loss of
child or some other great bereave-
ment A death in the family often
puts an end to years of hatred and
bitterness.
The fearful tidal wave which wiped
out a large part of Galveston, and
more recently the terrible conf1agra-
ton which swept through the old
town of Salem, Mass, also wiped out
a great deal of bitterness, hatred and
Jealousy. These dreadful catastrophes
in each instance brought the people
of the community together In one
great brotherhood and sisterhood as
never before Families who for years
had been at strife with one another
became united again in lasting friend
ship.

selfishness and anlmalism would have

the result of her visits to the west
ern part of the country, where she
was greatly attracted by the from
tier and Indian life and characters.
But in spite of the success of Mrs.
Jackson's early writings 1t was not
till she was flfty-three that she wrote
her masterpiece "Romona," a book
which has survived the period when
it was a best seller.
Three years before the publication
of "Romona." Mrs. Jackson pub
lished a book called "A Century of
Dishonor" a plea for the better treat
ment of the Indians, and it is this
idea which she embodied In her ia
nous novel,
Mrs Rorer-Sarah Tyson Rorer-
was left a widow when she was a
very young woman. She turned her
thoughts at once to the teaching of
domestic science, a subject for
which she had a natural bent, and
soon became the principal of the
Philadelphia School of Domestic
Science.
So successful has Mrs. Rorer been
as teacher and writer on the sub
ject of domestic science that she
stands today practically at the head
Of her profession.

A superstitious People.
From Buffalo Evening News

From Buffalo Evening news
The truth is, despite modern dis
coveries and finishing schools, we
are intensely superstitious peoplel
The occult may not exercise quite
the sway that it once did over the
world in general, and education has
served to make us less credulous,
hut the shameful truth is that we
believe in signs.
The strange, the weird, the mystic.
iious, always has a better chance OF
being believed than fact.
Almost as many people read and
digest the prophecies for the year
made by almanacs, as read the news
papers. We are always ready to
believe something astounding and
unbelievable, and smooth talker
can generally make money, no mat
ter how outrageous his theme may
be.
Mime. Thebes is a certain French
lady who is supposed to be an Al
future peeker. She says the war
will come to an end November q,
An Indian magi in the Godphor
almanac OF last January, after pre-
dieting the beginning of the war in
July, said 1t would end In NoVem-
Der.
A lot of people are patiently wait
ing to see what November brings
forth. That shows the influence OF
the supernatural.
1t is the same influence which
causes us to read with avidity the
prophecy on six months of future
weather.
It is a little of the same strain OF
blood that ran through the veins oil
our ancestors and caused them to de-
clare certain old women witches.
The occult--the supernatural-sttl
exercises q certain sway.
Probably because of this we refuse
to walk under ladders-Connie Mack
and Stallings refuse to accept
bouquets-showme refuse to allow q
person with a pass to enter the house
before paid admission on the might
of performance.
Something says all of these things
are unlucky.
The influence of the Delphic oracle
which was sought by all the Greek
leaders before they waged war, is still
felt

Miss Clark and Cotton.

brOH tue frONlucnce journal.
Miss Genevieve Clark, daughter CT
Champ Clark, is not a statesman, a
financier or an economist, but she
takes an eminently practical and SEN
sible view of the cotton trouble. She
can see no sense in attempting to re-
lieve the situation by buying a bale
of cotton, nor can she see the ex-
pediency of national loans to finance
the planters or of laws restricting
new crops. The simple remedy is the
obvious one. The public should be
urged and encouraged 10 buy manu-
featured cotton. The truth is, Of
course, that aside from manufacture
ers no one on earth has any possible
Use for raw cotton. -.......-

No Menace In Sanatorium.

DR.. Edward L. Trudeau. who built
the first tuberculosis sanatorium in
the United States in 1885, says:
"When | bought the first land on
which the Adirondack Cottage sanato-
rum is built, l paid $25 an acre for it.
but the price was then thought alb
surdly high. My last purchase of five
acres cost me $4,000. To my knowl
edge, there has never been an employe
who came to the sanatorium in sount
health who developed tuberculosis
while there; and a sanatorium can NJ
more endanger the health of the neigh
borhood in which 1t Is built, even j
the residences are at its very gates
than 1t could II 1t were placed on to-
Of a high mountain miles away iron

Neither the liquor industry nor it's

protect the traffic. ave ask for space
IN which to exploit its products at
state or national or international ex-

On the contrary, wherever permitted,

Ing story told of the noted reformer,
John B. Cough:
AS Mr.. Cough fastened along the
street OF a great English city he
found a drunken man lying on the
sidewalk outside a saloon door. Go.

piece of paper and with a colored pen
Gil wrote on 1t the words, "SPECI-
MEN of the work done inside He
then pinned the paper to the drunken
mans coat and stood aside to watch
the effect produced on the passersby
The attention Of the saloon keeper
was attracted by the crowd, which
soon gathered, and when he observed
the cause of the interest, he angrily
asked: Who did it?' which" asked
Mr.. Cough. IF you mean what l!
on the paper, l did that. II you NEAR
the man, you did that. This morning
when he started for his work. he wal
a sober man; when he went into you

BUSiN is.

Regarding the manner In which
temperance affects the money prob
lem, two men doing business In a
dry town are quoted by the Ottumwa
Ua.) Courier. One, a banker, assert
ed that deposits showed a steady In
crease which could be attributed only
to the closing Of saloons. He said
also that merchants were finding II
much easier to collect bills under a
dry regime. The other, a manufac'
turer, states that the checks with
which the shops employees were paid
now came back Endorsed by grocers
butchers, clothing stores and othel
dealers in life's necessities, instead o
by saloonkeepers. Experience hat
taught him, he said, that men spen'
much or most of their money where
they cashed their checks.
