Germ POisOns

AFTER all, II is not the germs that do
Al harm, but the polsons which they pro-
duce. II is well known that the most deadly
poisons may be put upon an intact skin
without any bad effect. but II the skin is
simply abraded, just n mere scratch, poi
son put upon the raw surface will be quick
~ absorbed and deadly effects produced
The same thing is true OF the lining skin
within the body. The mucous membrane
has this same power TO protect the body
against polsons and germs
Germs ordinarily can not get through
the outside skin, nor do they usually pene-
trate the mucous membrane, provided the
person is in state Of health. When
mucous membrane is diseased however,
when II is raw. when II is congested, when
II Is swollen or when Il is I'm state of
irritation-as, for example, when a per-
son has taken medicinal cathartic which
weakens and irritates the mucous mem.
brane-or when n person is subject to
colitis, gastrtis, enteritis or any such
chronic infection, then the poisons pass
through readily The altering power of the
mucous membrane of tho intestine has be-
come lost. This explains why a person
feels weak when suffering from diarrhea.
1t is the poisons that cause the feeling of
weakness, not, as many suppose. a loss
Of food II is simply the absorption of poi
sons that are present in the intestinal
contents.
Very often the chronic invalid, when told
he should have three bowel movements
day, says: "Oh, but wouldn't that be weak
ening?' It would be weakening II II were
induced by a poison II one were to take
drug or a medicine to induce II, or IL the
frequent bowel movement were the result
Of infection from cholera, dysentery or any
thing Of that sort; but frequent bowel
movement Induced by purely mechanical or
physlologic means is a great blessing One
Of the most important things that can hap
pen to the chronic invalid is to get the
bowels into state Of activity One does
not become chronic invalid as the result
OF intestinal toxemla until after his power
TO resist these poisons is broken down,
until the intestinal filter is so damaged that
the poisons flood through This is the
condition of person who has colitis,

Cooked and uncooked Cereals

What is the relative value Of cooked and un-
cooked cereals? INQUIRER.
Cooked cereals are more perfectly d.
gested than uncooked cereals which contain
considerable raw starch and on such a diet
a large part of the starch would escape un-
dgested. The protein would all be dlgested.
Cereals do not require much cooking Five
minutes is enough for oatmeal or corn

cooked II is better that the starch should

The Use of Tnnsils

What Is the use Of the tonslls7 RAY r.
The tonsls are lymphatic glands placed
I'm the throat as sentinals to prevent enemies
entering the body beyond the mouth. The
mouth gets many germs of all kinds and
the tonslls catch and hold all the unclean
and unfriendly germs which reach them
from the mouth and nose. The office of
this gland is to fight the germs. When you
have a sore throat and your tonsls are
swollen, II is because the glands are making
every possible effort to fight germs But
when the tonsls become so thoroughly dis
eased that they have lost their germ-fghting
ability, IT Is best to have them removed.
There are other glands which will come to
the rescue and endeavor to make up for the
lack of the tonsils II is best, however. not
to remove the tonsis unless they are dis

Although in some of the fall models
fashioned from the woolens of
lighter weight one finds the pleated
skirt a prominent feature, still
there are many one-piece frocks of
serge gabardine and similar fabrics
showing a somewhat different ex-
preston of this form of construc-
ton. In these frocks one finds
skirts with pleated panel insets.
Such dress is the one pictured in
today's illustration. Navy blue
serge is the material that has gone
into the making of this charming
little one-piece costume. Black silk
stitching and hand embroidery sup
ply the embellishments. The quaint
little square neck opening is filled
in with a white georgette chemi-
settle, the closing edges bound in
black satin and topped with a
georgette collar, also satin bound.
