TO PREVENT ILLNESS.
That 10 One Of the Objects of compuI-
sorry Health Insurance.

That 10 One Of the Objects of compuI-
sorry Health Insurance.
Compulsory health insurance is now
being talked Of as another step in COM
munity welfare, the course being espe-
cially recommended in welfare work
among wage earners.
Investigation has shown that large
proportion Of sickness is preventable,
but most persons, small wage >earners
or not. are likely to neglect their all
ments until prevention is no longer
possible and serious illness must be
treated. Even then the doctors serv-
ices are avoided as much as possible
because Of the cost, and the victim OF
disease goes back to his work before
he Is fit.
Under the compulsory insurance sys-
tenn it is the idea that every worker
shall be visited at stated intervals by
q physician whether he is i'll or not;
the slightest illness brings a call from
the doctor, whose business is to keep
him well if possible. In many cases he
will succeed, with the result of a great
saving of time and wages to the worker.
The total of such savings in the in
dustrial centers will run into the mill
lions and will proportionately lessen
the demands on charitable funds.-In-

Then one day, about noon, with the
sun shining brightly, he was running
along at top speed wondering whether
there really was such a thing in the
world as German U boat, when sud-
denly, almost dead ahead, he saw
something sort Of wallowing In the sea.
"The bow gun was loaded, and the

Of life on the q boat there suddenly
was big roar, cloud Of smoke, and
she disappeared. They ran over to
where she had been lying, but could
not find sign Of her except for few
