WAR AND THE HOME
A Good Long Breath.

A good long full breath. like a drink
Of pure water. is q regular tonic. Most
people get so in the habit Of breath
ing thai they do not realize or appre-
ciate the comfort of doing so pain
lessly, quite forgetting that thousands
suffer from distressing respiratory
troubles.
Many a soldier who marches over
dusty roads or who endures exposure,
will find some difficulty in breathing If
there is the least asthmatic tendency
anxious watcher back home will ex-
perience the same sudden OPP
preston in the exhalation of the
breath, because OF worry lest harm
overtake some loved one.
Asthma IL a peculiar disease. Be-
cause it has not ended life in great
epidemics it has not been as extern
sively studied as many other ailments.
There is an old saying that an
asthmatic will never die Of the trou-
BILE, and will likely live to q ripe, old
age. Sometimes they do develop a
great muscular power of the lungs,
indirectly, as a result Of the trouble.
Asthma ome from different caus-
es. Bronchial asthma Is due to spas
modic contraction of the bronchi. This
may be the nervous reflex influence Of
excitement, fear or dread. 1t may be
caused by Inflammation due to cold,
chronic catarrh, adenoids. diseased
tonsils. gastric arrangement. intestin-
al worms. nasal spurs. genital irrita-
ton, climatic conditions or local ir-
ritants, such as dust, pollen. and the
odor Of certain animals.
Cardiac asthma is shortness Of
breath due to heart trouble. Asthma
may also be symptomatic Of hay
fever, Bright's disease. rheumatic and
equity conditions. Modern research
also shows that many obscure cases
depend upon an underlying and per-
haps latent tubercular basis.
