HEALTH HINTS

Fortunately for US all, at this
time when many of the neces-
sites of life are prohibitive by
their high prices, there are a
number of things We can do to
have good health that don't cost
money. Thanks to the Maker
that fresh, cool, moving air is
not bought by the quart, 1t costs
nothing TO walk and rest the
mind in it, to breathe it deeply
into the lungs and to sleep in it.
1t costs nothing TO drink water
freely, and to eat slowly. 1t costs
nothing to stand, walk and sit
erect. 1t costs nothing to form
regular daily habits. 1t costs
practically nothing to keep the
body clean, the teeth clean and
to eat clean food. AS matter of
fact, the things that are best for
health are the things the poor
have with them always and that
money can't buy.
The truth Of the matter is poor
people, if they only knew it,
can't afford to be sick. Only the
well to do can afford it. Sickness
is expensive; it costs time and
money. 1t often costs good job.
1t brings on poverty, and pove1y
we all know is an open door to
disease. More intelligent people .
are realizing this and are taking
the pains to stay off disease as /
much as possible, by cultivating
healthy habits.
That sickness is the first step
leading to dependency and the
primary cause Of poverty is
shown by an investigation re- I
Gently conducted by the Russell
Sage Foundation in New York
City. This investigation was made
among wage-earners and charity
with a view to
knowing how frequently is sick
ness found a cause of depend
ency. 1t was found that over 80
per cent Of those in need of aid
mad been brought to this position
through sickness or the response
Dility for sickness. Another i'm
Dortant fact revealed was that
most OF the cases studied belong
I'd to the lower branches of labor
and that they were here for the
reason that either physical or
mental deterioration had follow
I'd past illness. In other words,
sickness was found to be a factor
producing a low grade of labor
IS well as dependency. On the
other hand, the prevention of
sickness was found to be the
most effective blow against pow
erty and all of its ills.

The war enters into this love

The romance began two years

Miss Thompson at house party in
Goshen, New York. According to
stories current among their friends.
this was by no means the first
meeting OF these young people, but
1t was the first time that they be-
came conscious OF each other. And
at this house party, which, by the
way. was given by Robert Wilson

But alas. all the money In the
world could not buy him a rugged
constitution. And il was this tragic
state Of affairs that first almost lost

closest associates knew all that he
