Cupplna and leechlna

When It comes TO introducing new
ideas in tonsorial parlors, the East
Side has the other ateliers backed off
the board Besides getting all the ac.
cessories that go with a scrape, the
Greek and Russian BARRIERS in the
Ghetto district offer to cup or leech
you. Lest the rising generation
sAsala not Know what cupping and
leeching is, it may be stated that
cupping is grocess to bleed people
who imagine they have too much oi
the vital fluid in their systems. The
barber cuts a cash in your arm or
chest, lights piece Of paper inside
OF a glass cup, puts the cup, with the
lighted paper in IT, over the cut. and
the flame exhausting the air in the
glass cup. causes the blood to flow
freely The average Greek or Rus
sian regards the process as a sure
cure for all Ills.

A CHALLENGE, IF CORRECT.

The claim Of the Medical
Record, said TO be based upon
statistics in hand, that 100000
young Americans are so defective
physically that they could not be
acceptable for military service, is
a serious one. Whether from the
standpoint Of the military idea
involving the problem of pre-
paredness, or as an appalling situ-
alton in itself, as a national re-
buke, the fact, if it is a fact, that
75 per cent Of the boys Of the
country are physically untitled to
take part in defense of the
Nation is depressing.
In the course of a few years
these boys, now principally public
school pupils, will be the men upon
whom the country must depend
for its defensive safety, industri-
ally and in military way. For the
United States to depend for pro
lection upon 20,000,000 young
men, Of whom 100000 are toe
defective physically to become
soldiers in case Of necessity, is not
prospect in which we may take
deep pride.
If the physical status Of The
youth of the country is as bad as
the Medical Record represents
upon what it says are facts, W.
seem TO have waited too long tC
make the discovery of our weak
ness, for such a situation is moth
ing short of a calamity. 1t is jus
as unfortunate for the country
ft6in any other sense as on il
npilitary side. If this physical de
fectiyeness exists it will make it
