Al THE LYRIC THEATRE,

This weeks offerings at the Lyric
theatre are in way unusual. They are
unusual from the standpoint of booking
two OF the most renowned and Justly
|celebrated plays in the same week.
For Saturday and Sunday and the Sat
urday afternoon matinee, the produc-
tion will be Hector Turnbulls master
piece THE Heart of Nora Flynn with
dainty little Marie Doro in the leading
role. THE Heart of Nora Flynn" has a
reputation that is as wide as the world
and Is one of the most loveable and de-
lightful productions that cucumber the
American stage.
Besides this, there will be the usual
Bray's cartoons, the favorite of both
young and old.
For Wednesday and Thursday there
will appear Dustin Farnum in David
Garrick." Everybody knows this favor
ite production and loves it. The story
has to do with David Garrick," actor,
whose indifference to the wiles of
womanhood and devotion to the up
lifting OF the stage is well known. The
time comes when he meets the only
woman, and from that time on things
happen fast and furious. David Gar
rich" Is so well known that added
comment from us Is unnecessary as
the play is one that has stood the test
of many years and is still the prime ia
vOrlte that 1t was forty years ago.

One of the curious things shown by
the examination was that the New
York clerks were almost as subject
to thickened arteries as were the De.
troit handworkers, although doctors
have always supposed that thickened
arteries were largely due to unusual
strain and eNertion.
Commenting on the above data DR.
Fisk said:
THAT there is some particular in
fluence at work causing the upward
trend in mortality from organic dis
eases seems probable. The causes OF
such diseases are manifold; yet there
seems to be some general condition
fundamental to these particular con
ditions."

pected health facts are being announc-
ed for the benefit of the public. DR..
Eugene Lyman Fisk of New York City,
lately contributed to the New York
Medical Journal an article that is
causing rather widespread comment
in publications that pay attention to
such matters. He said, for example:
81 feel justified in asserting that the
evidence of widespread premature
physical decay, which is suggested by
our vital statistics, is to a considerable
degree confirmed by actual eXamina-
ton of large groups OF supposedly
healthy young people.
Thousands of people are slowly and
inevitably preparing for physical
breakdown or premature death, and
there can be no more important work
for modern medicine than to bring
such cases, as early as possible, under
proper hygienic or medical guidance" "
Examinations were made of two Sc
lected special groups Of 1000 workers
each, one consisting Of foremen and
skilled employees in Detroit motor
plant, and the other of clerks in banks,
trust companies and commercial
houses il New York City. The aver
age age of the Detroit group was 1927
years, that of the New York group q
years. In the Detroit group not one
man of the 1,000 turned out perfect at
the examination without physical i'm
pairment, and not in need of advice
for the correction of living habits, The
number advised to seek medical treat
ment was $50, and of those only 10
per cent were aware Of any physical
impairment.
The chief serious troubles with the
Detroit group were:
Organic heart disease, 35; thickened
arteries $780, high or low blood pres
sure, 231; kidney trouble 1922; nervous
3, lung impairment 81; social diseases
10.
Others in the Detroit group who had
less serious ailments numbered: poor
circulation PIG; incipient kidney signs
266; bad digestion 80; nose, throat and
ear troubles, 1928; bad teeth or gums
99S; anaemia, 4; skin troubles, 6S;
errors in diet, 541; faulty vision, 40;
too stout, 12S too thin, II.
In the New York group the number
seriously out of gear physically were:

teries, 424; bad blood pressure, 26O;
kidneys, 39S; nervous, Il; lungs, 20

A LETTER ON HEALTH
FROM HEALTH EXPERTS
{ BY DIR. John w. Duke I
! State Commissioner {

There is not much rest these days
for the man who willfully fails to pro
tect himself against the possible ap-
proach of disease. He may not shut
his eyes to his duty to himself, to his
family and to society in genera. with
out having somebody seize him by the
shoulder and shake him until he is
wide awake. The experts of the fed
eral and state governments, of life
insurance companies, and similar or
ganizations, are persistently making
outcry against the slightest evidence
that public health is suffering a de-
cline because of improper habits and
standards of living. 1t might seem to
the uninformed person that the alleged
defects in public health are being eXag-
gerated, for do not most persons of
mature years easily remember days
when little was being said about the
ailments of humanity that now seem
to be increasing? Such persons for
get that present high-pressure ways of
living are breaking down human health
at an alarming rate, and that people
in the smaller towns are initiating the
reckless high-living city residents
more and more each year. There is less
relaxation and more higher nervous
strain in the small towns than there
used to be. Health experts engaged in
research work on health subjects are
constantly increasing in numbers and
efficiency, and the results of their in
vestigations are being given a degree
of publicity unthought of twenty-five
years ago. Almost every day unsus-

South Main St., McAlester, Okla.
The most effective remedy Tor bron-
chial or pulmonary disease Is Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
Almost all remedies prescribed Tor
such diseases contain opium or some
narcotic which soothes by stupe-
faction. UGolden Medical Discovery"
contains neither narcotics nor alcohol.
1t stops coughs by curing their cause:
1t heals weak lungs, builds up wasted
tissues, and promotes the health OF
every organ of the body.
With many women the ordinary
strain of household cares is intensified
and aggravated by a diseased con-
dition of the delicate organs, and
they become victims of that terrible
backache, or binding headache, which
is so common among women.
If Vou are bearing this burden, bear
it no longer. For the backache, head
ache, nervousness and weakness which
spring from a diseased condition OF the
womanly organs there is . sure cure
in DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
