An incubator consists of a closed

This degree must be within the linn

found to have died. The percentage

the general vitality of the flock laying

THE FOUNDATION OF HEALTH.

All life is dependent alike for its
awakening and for its maintenance up
on the influence of certain chemical
factors, among which heat and mois-
ture may be regarded as paramount.
The organisms now living on this
earth are known as plants and ami
mails and without exception one and
all are subject to the same laws. This
makes for close correspondence
among all life and thus it is possible
for us to unravel and expose the tan.
gled sources of our physical ills with
comparative ease. The study of plants
is called botany and that of the ami
mails is known as zoology, while the
study of living things in general, in
Guiding both animals and plants, is
known as biology. Humanity owes a
vast debt to biology and that debt is
increasing every day.
Biology teaches us that there is no
room for chance in nature and that
unrestricted growth never results in
discord. Discord is always artificial
Wherever there Is any unnatural"
condition We know there must have
been some interference to account for
it. And the present drift in the medi-
cal world is to locate this interference.
Research work conducted along
these lines with fish, chickens and the
like has recently exposed many inter.
esting and extremely Illuminating
facts with relation to the subject of
the disease known as cancer, and
makes it very clear that we easily
might solve most of our physical trou-
bles in much the same way if we
would only learn to heed the lessons
acquired in the handling of the lower
organisms.
incubation is word in common
use; it is derived from the Latin words
meaning to brood, or to lie on, and
specifically it means the action of the
hen in sitting on her eggs to hatch
them; the word Is also used in pathol
ogy as expressing the development
within the human body of the germs
OF disease. and it is especially asso.
ciated with the artificial means of

not all become cytOloslstS-cell GA
perts-but we can easily acquire per.
sonal working knowledge from obser-
walton of any one of the lower organ
isms-such as the chicken. for instance
sufficient for all practical purposes
as a safe guide to better things If we
will but open our minds to the truth.
To begin with, we do not know,
here in this country, how many chill.
dren' are born annually, because only
few states require birth registration,
and we are therefore unable even to
approximate the percentage of infants
stillborn as the result of conditions
identical in principle with those that
cause the death of the chick in the
she'll But we do know from statistics
returned on approximately 90 per cent
of our population of 1OO,OOO,OOO that at
least twenty-five per cent of all infants
born die before they reach one year
of age In contrast with this condition
we know that if sitting hen is given
eggs from the same pens from which
the incubators are supplied and from
which an so per cent hatch is consid-
cred highly satisfactory, the hen will,
with but few exceptions, produce
matches approximating 100 per cent.
The mortality in the incubator is in
significant compared to that which
takes place among chicks under artiti-
cial brooding and feeding conditions,
that is to say, during that period of life
before the chick is sufficiently mature
to be able to look after it's own needs.
If the death of forty to sixty or more
per cent of given flock of chickens
ended the matter we might content
ourselves with the idea that inasmuch
as each species tends to increase in.
ordinately, the check known always to
be in action, even though we are not
able to perceive it, which is simply
natures method of preserving a bal.
ance, must result in an improvement
of the breed. But unfortunately, this
is found not to be true; for invariably
those survivors of conditions which
produce these very heavy mortalities
are themselves SO shattered physically
that under the same conditions only q
few generations suffice seriously to de-
teriorate a fine strain and, If persist.
emily followed, quickly lead to total
determination of the line.
On every hand we find these condi.
tons closely paralleled in the human
species. Deficient food supply to the
pregnant woman gives the same re-
suits following lack of heat in any
other incubator, and an excess pro
duces about the same effect as too
much heat in the machine; both inevi
tably lead to deterioration in the
child; while artificial feeding is known
to be fully as disastrous to the child as
it is so clearly proved to be to the
; chick and it's descendants.
The solution is comparatively simple
and consists in nothing more thai

ARTIFICIAL FEEDING.

Inasmuch as health is the natural
and normal state Of mankind, it
should not be difficult to preserve
ones health. And it is not But be-
cause health is inherent in US, and be-
cause we are elastic and therefore
tend persistently to revert to the nor
NAL, whatever the provocation, with
very few exceptions we obstinately
and fatuously cling to habits and prac-
tlces certain to impair our physical in
heritance, until some sharp and severe
experience lashes us into a conscious
ness of corporal limitations and com.
pels the recognition of natural laws.
Without exception i'll health, phys.
ical debility, sickness and suffering in
general come through repeated viola
lions, either on ones own part or on
the part of others, of the laws Of this
universe, of which we are a constitu.
ent part
1t is said, Every man is either fool
or a physician at forty" meaning, of
course, that every intelligent person
should develop sufficient powers of OBJ
servation and judgment in 40 years
experience to enable him to live sane
ly, and therefore BEAUTIFULLY. But the
appalling increase in deaths from the
degenerative diseases occurring among
those aged forty years and upward, d.
rectly the result of personal habits and
lndiscretions, raises a question as to
the soundDess of the old axiom and of
the wisdom of depending solely on
ones ordinary personal experience as
guide.
Too often irreparable damage is
done to vital organs before we become
conscious of the breakdown, and then
it is too late to do anything worth
while.
AS matter of fact the problem of
life itself can be solved only by the
study of what takes place in the mi
mute portion of the cell, for it is in
the "centrasome"-a roundish body |
alongside the nucleus of a cell that is
undergoing division-that the new for I
nation of an individual begins. Re.

HINTS FOR THE COOK
SOME BETTER WAYS OF DOING
 KITCHEN WORK.
How To Do Away With Lumps In Making Cocoa-To Keep Rice and Macaron From Becoming
 Mushy.

Instead of mixing cocoa with boiling water to dissolve it before putting it into the cocoa pot, try mixing the dry cocoa with an equal amount of grant, lated sugar and then pouring it into the boiling water in the pot, stirring all the while. This does away with the Jumps that usually have to be fused over, and also a mussy cup.
 The kettle should be given frequent baths, else lime and other salts will settle on the bottom, which may then be dissolved off into the boiling water, making it hard"
 To heat water very quickly set a broad, flat saucepan over the fire and cover to keep in steam.
 A small zinc-covered board, about the size of rolling board for pas try, is invaluable for setting hot dishes, pots, etc., upon. This preserves the kitchen table top, and leaves room on the stove for other things. To prevent roast from becoming fat soaked, set it upon rack in the roasting pan. But keep the surface of the roasting pan covered with fat {. to prevent it from burning. Fat is better used here than water, as water utterly changes the character of the meat.
 Cold meats may be attractively served by removing first all gristle, bones and skin and excess fat and then cutting into thin strips or slivers. Warm indirectly by pouring over the meat any desired hot sauce.
 To keep every grain of rice separate and distinct, cook it in a pot of rapid ly boiling water with the lid off. Cooked in a double boiler with the lid on makes the rice mushy. Macaroni should be cooked same as rice.
 To soften hard tissue of dried vege- tables like peas, beans and lentfls, cook in soft water Otherwise add baking soda to ordinary water in the proportion of one teaspoonful to two quarts of water.
 If string beans are not freshly gath cred from the garden, it will improve them to prepare them for cooking, then let them stand for an hour or more in cold water before applying heat
