There is more Catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it a
local disease and prescribed local reme-
dies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced It incur
able. Science has proven Catarrh to be
constitutional disease. and therefore re-

COUNTY HOSPITAL HAS NEW
"BEDSIDE" SCHOOL
There is school over on the West
Side that is different"
The teacher visits the pupils. The
children don't romp about at recess
and are not the boisterous kind that
most teachers meet daily. And the
desks are beds.
The County hospital is the school
building. The pupils don't romp be-
cause they can't walk. Many of
them never have walked and some of
them never will. They are chronic
invalids.
The schoolroom is the ward where
permanent child invalids are kept. A
number of the youthful students
never stir in their beds while the
teacher talks with them; they can't
move. Some can hobble about a bit
and others wheel themselves around
in movable chairs.
The board of education sent them
teacher on the first of this month, a
member of the staff of the Marquette
school near the hospital. @
i Every schoolday of the week she
visits them and moves from one bed
side to another, teaching each patient
as her age requires.
Her lessons are of many sorts. Her
pupils ages range from to 81, and
there is a difference in their mental
development. Some have never been
in regular school
Some morning one or two of the
children will be too i'll or too weak to
talk to the teacher. Then she slips
quietly by their bed and the lessons
are given out very softly in a far cor
ner of the ward.
The children are always glad to
have her come, for they haven't the
great out-of-doors for playground,
and her visits break the painful mo-
notony.

GAS BOMB FOR ALDERMAN

RApIUM PRODUCTION
OF COLORADO

Denver, Colo.-The supply of ra-
dunn, if the entire yearly output Of
Colorado mines was kept in the Unit
ed States, would be sufficient to- cure
80 per cent of the cancer cases of
this country capable of treatment Of
radium, according to figures given
by DIR. R. B. Moore, physical chem
ist of the United States Bureau of
Mines, yesterday in talk on "The
Extraction of Radium from Colorado
Minerals"
There are only sixty grams of
htgh-grade radium in the world" he
said, "and more than one.half of
that amount was produced in Colo
RADIO, and the supply is steadily in
creasing. until it now amounts to
about $4,000 or $50 900 worth of ra-
dunn month.
"Out of the sixty grams only five
grams are now in the possession of
the United States, which amount can
cure between 5000 to 5000 cancer
cases yearly.
"If the cities of the United States
were as interested in radium cure
as those of foreign nations, a great
Ter quantity of Colorado radium
would be retained in this country,
much to the advantage OF its citi-
zens.
Germany, for instance. has any
number OF municipal hospitals, pos
.sessing 100000 worth of radium. the
endowment of the city treasury. So
interested are they that the appro-
pniations were readily made by the
city.
"TEe present supply of this costly
mineral in the United States is suf.
ficiert to cure only those cases which

BUsTLE AND STIR:

Voc

Has God people on earth now?
Yes.
Are they actually carrying Gods
message and doing his work now?
Yes.
Well, when these people of God
present the claims Of Jesus Christ to
unsaved men and women and they
understand that He is the son of God
and the rightful ruler of the world,
and these unsaved men and women by
acts of stubbornness refuse to accept
his terms, become his servants and
obey his laws, they are then and
there living in rebellion against the
kingdom of Heaven of which Christ
is king.
Then if / SAM, 1928 be true, (for
rebellion is a sin of witchcraft and
stubbornness is as iniquity and idola-
try.)
These persons being in class with
witches and idolaters, will receive the
same treatment at the hands Of a
just God. And the man who comes to
the death bed of one of these rebels
and offers him pardon on terms differ
ent from those God offered, this man
makes himself n God, setting aside
the justice and judgment of God.
While speaking of Gods mercy
we should remember also that he is
"just" God. w. E.

HIS LIFE MIGHT HAVE BEEN
PROLONGED.

| The death of Mr.. T. o. Mitchell n
citizen of North Tazcwell, occurred
last Saturday. He died of tubcrcu-
losis. He was young man, in the
prime of life.
Less than u year ago he was in
this office on business. The writer
noticed that he had cough-that
tell-tale "hack" and the danger sig-
nails were beginning to appear in his
face. He was asked squarely and
fatty if he did not have some lung
troubles. He replied that physic-
ian had recently decided that he had
incipient tuberculosis, but TINT he
was under treatment and expected
soon to be well. He was urged ut
once to go to Catawba or some other
sanitarium, and at the same time,
warned that, according to the records
he might expect the worst unless he
acted ut once. He said that he had
about decided to go away ut once.
Again he was urged, and II few days
later, on the street, he again ex-
pressed determination to go to n
sanitarium. AT the risk of being
considered meddlesome "whcre he had
no business" the writer insisted and
urged him. He promised again. But
he didn't go until he became so feeble
that he had, so it was reported, to be
carried to the train on n cot. He is
in his grave today. These facts are
recited for the benefit of others who
may now have, or at any time here
after have the dread discase-the
great white plague. To neglect is to
die as certain as fate. Taken in time
n cure is entirely possible and prob
able. The State is spending hundreds
of thousands of dollars every year for
the free treatment of the disease.
And yet, in Tazcwell grave yards are
hundreds of her citizens, men and
women, dead, who might have been
saved to their families, themselves
and society.

BABY WEEK.

The week, beginning March 4th, will
be Baby week in most of the leading
cities and towns in the United States.
The object is to conserve the lives
and health of the babies of this coun-
try. Speeches and addresses will be
made, literature distributed bearing
upon the general subjects of "Bettcr
Babies" "Better Mothers" etc.
There is reason for this general
move-300,000 bnbics die every year
before they are 12 months old, nearly
all of whom cnn be saved by intel
ligcnt cnre on the part of parents and
nurses. Baby Week VIII afford pnr-
cnts an opportunity to learn the nc
ceptcd principles of infant care. The
move is development of the scat
tering "Bnby Shows" held in the coun-
ty and State Fairs, which began some
years ago.
