HEALTH INSURANCE

Twenty-Five out of every 1,OOo on, ployes m American industries cordlng to recent statistics. are ooa stantly incapacitated by sickness n average worker losing approxin,o4e, nine days each year on this acoas This 'non-effective rate" fou great army of industrial workers ;s the United States barely snono.4 the total money loss to ep,nIe,s and employees. The lessened aefa;s cy, the effects of reduced earninos ; times of sickness, as well as tbo oo.a of medical attention, and the econor,is loss from deaths, swell the cos+'4 industry and to the Nation to alr,os, incalculable figures.
 That much of this loss is notb;nu less than preventable waste and that this waste can be largely reduced b, a properly conductej system of oov ernmental health insurance for Waco workers are conclusions set forth in Public Health Bulletin No. 76. cor tainlng the results of a study If Health lnsurance-ts Relation to the Public Health" just issued bv tbo United States Public Health Ser. vice.
 The preventive value of health in surance Is given especial emphasis in this study. Any system of health in. surance for the United States or anv State should at it's inception have pre. vention of sickness as one of ts fundamental purposes" says the bull. letin. This country should profit bv the experience of European countries where prevention is being recognized as the central idea necessary to health insurance is to attain it's greatest success in improving the health and efficiency of the industrial popula- tion."
 Such a system, it is pointed out in the bulletin. would
 1. Provide cash benefits and medi- cal service for all wage learners in times of sickness at much less cost than is now possible. Adequate med ical relief would thus be placed with. in the reach of even the lowest paid workers who are most subject to ll- ! health.
 ?. Distribute the cost among en- ployers, employees, and the public as the groups responsible for disease causing conditions and afford these groups definite financial incentive for removing these conditions This can be done by means of small weekly payments from employees, supple mented by proportionate contributions from employers and government at rate reducible in proportion to the reduction of sickness.
 ?. Become an effective health measure by linking the cooperative efforts of the three responsible groups with the work of National State and local health agencies, and i Dy utlllZlng these agencies in the ao- Iministraton of the health insurance system.
 l. Afford a better basis for the cooperation of the medical profes- sion with public health agencies. ,. Eliminate the elements of pa ternalism and charity-giving by mak- ing employees and the public, as we'll as employers, joint agents in the con trol of this fund.
 "A governmental system of health insurance, concludes the study, "can be adapted to American conditions and when adapted will prove to be health measure of extraordinary

Pangs of Poverty.

The eldest daughter had returned
from a finishing school and was over
at the home of some neighbors where
she once delighted to slide down the
cellar door and play 81 spy" But
now she was on a more dignified mis-
sion and was the center of a group of
eager listeners as she gave vividly her
impressions of the year away from
home, remarks the Indianapolis News.
The mother of the flock was particu-
larly interested in view of decisions
soon to be made in regard to schools
for her own daughters.
After a few minutes of enthusiastic
recital the visitor paused and her
countenance, changing, said with a
sigh, 20, dear, but it's awful to be
poor"
why" said another neighbor, that
is a strange remark after all the fine
times you have been telling us about.
What is all the trouble, my dear?
''Well," was the reply, "It's just this
way. You see must have dog be

Feathered Music Box.

For that dainty household pet, the
canary, we have been largely indebted
to Germany, and the sweet tones of
this wonderful music box" have in
many cases been the result of long
and tedious hours of patient teaching
by some German peasant. The little
feathered students are capable of at
tanning quite a degree of skill in imi-
tating tones. The German canary is
known under three or more different
names, given to denote the degree OF
training. In this country the Hartz
Mountain canary is best known, partly
because of it's being less expensive
than some of the others, and partly on
account of it's accomplishments as a
songster.

Believes Cure Was Made

Some of the patients were near
death when first saw them and it
was possible to 60 nothing but relieve
little of their pain. In other cases,
said by specialists to be beyond help,
| b-lieve there had been a permanent
cure. If selenium will only relieve
pain it is worth using. and if it will
cure, the treatment should be thor
oughly Investigated. SuIfo-selene,
a combination of sulphur and selenium,
the compound DIR. Walker used, was
worked out in cooperation with DR..
Frederick Klein. a biological chemist,
of New York. In 1911 DR.. Walker
came to the conclusion, upheld by
eminent authorities on cancer, the
disease was not due to a germ, but to
a certain peculiar condition in the
body. which might be corrected by
treatment with chemicals. Expert
ments with selenium were begun and
have been continued the last five wears.

Effect of Polishing.

Take a piece of cheesecloth, wrung
out in cold water, and clean the sur
face thoroughly. Then put a few
drops of crude oil on a second piece
of cheesecloth WIRING out in cold wa
ter and begin to polish, turning the
cloth in rubbing in order to distribute
the oil and prevent the wood from be-
coming oily. Always rub with the
grain. This gives a lasting polish in

Marked success in the treatment of
cancer by selenium is soon to be an
nounced in medical publications by
DR.. Charles H. Walker. of 327 West
Eighty-sixth Street, New York City.
Selenum is powerful chemical which,
taken internally. in capsules, has re-
lieved suffering in many cases and in
others has effected an apparent cure.
Mr.. Walker, however, does not say he
has found cure, but he firmly believes
the treatment is worthy of through
trial. Il have treated in the last
five years more than two hundred
cases." DR.. Walker said. "In many
of them diagnosis bad shown beyond

The State Highway over to Pagosa
is practically open now. Monte Vista
should do advertising enough to pull
a large part of the traffic that is
bound to go over this road, through
the town of Monte Vista. Monte
Vista is on both the State Highway
over Poncha and La Veta Pass, and
a little effort on our part would get
both steams of travel to come through
here. Over Poncha the Gunbarrel
road has to be used, and the cutoff
from Del Norte to Saguache can be
used which would eliminate this
town.
