What Climate for "Catarrh"7
NOTED

HUAb CuUhte lOf thhtb'hh
In a personal letter from the
head OF the health department OF
one of the south Atlantic states ap-
pears this passage:
I'VE are constantly besieged with
questions along this line. In fact,
have before me now letter from
a gentleman of ... New York.
making inquiry in regard 70 the eli
mate of this state and the POSSIBLE
ity of our climate curing 'catarrh
OF the head.
People with various chronic dis
eases of the nose, throat and bron-
chial tubes masquerading as "ca-
tarrh" in the north imagine they
can can get well If they move south.
People in the east harbor the nation
that they will get rid OF the Ca
tarrh" II they move west. Western
people constantly besiege this de-
partment for suggestions about
the treatment of "catarrh,'' and
many southern people think that in
any climate but their "catarrh"
may be gotten rid of.
People living in valleys blame
their suppositious "catarrh" upon
the dampness of the atmosphere.
People living in places of some alti-
tude charge their imaginary Ca
tarrh" to the weather. People re-
siding in the most equable climate
available account for the great
prevalence of Catarrhal troubles
by pointing to the chilliness Of the
night air, etc, per omnia saeculor-
UNI, and round and round in vi
cious circle
The most foolhardy venture
human being can undertake is
changing climate for health on his
own or some well-meaning friends
advice. Too often it proves just the
opposite-he changes health, such
as he has, for climate. In practice
it always turns out that thesfellow
who had the same trouble" gives
the most costly and worthless adj
vice. Especially is this true of
so-called "catarrh," for the obvious
reason that no such disease or con-
dition exists. "Catarrh," is camou-
hage which covers ignorance of
the actual nature and seat Of the
trouble present. All sorts of dis
ease m&1querade under this all
embracing title of "catarrh." No
one knows what the patient has

Would like your advice about TB
Is it durable? II the patient is still
under 30 years Of age, do you think
it would be worth while for him to
try and find e cure for it, What
climate is best? wv. t.
Answer-Most every victim OF
tuberculosis, as soon as he knows
enough to know he has tuberculo-
sis begins to think ne knows
enough to be his own doctor, and
has great fool for a patient. Tu-
berculosis will always be arrested
If the patient is properly treated.
1t would be fatal for the patient to
make any experiments with treat
ment or climate He must select
his physician and then do nothing
except under his physicians direc-
tion. The open air anywhere Is
curative, with prolonged rest IN
bed and the proper care.

At the Spencer.

Tonight Dorothy Dalton will be
shown starring in Love Me" Al
ways winsome, Miss Dalton is more
than ever adorable in her new role
and some of the gowns she wears
as well as those of her socially cor
rect ''in-laws," caused gasps OF
pleasure from the feminine CON
tingent of the audience. Love Me
is a straightforward, interesting
narrative of the struggle of Mazda
Madison to win the love and re-
spect of her husbands family and
incidentally to keep him against
great odds Miss Dalton is superb
in this picture. Also 18th episode
of vengeance and the Woman,
Sands of DOOM" an episode with
one thrill after another. The sus-
pense throughout is at the breaking
point.
Tuesday and Wednesday Quo
Vadis" will be shown, affording the
public a real treat "Quo Vadis" is
a story in the early Christian era,
full of thrills and dramatic interest
presented in most realistic and awe
inspiring scenes The picture was
staged on Father Tiber and along
the Appian Way. The Appian Way
is the oldest road in Rome and
stands today as a monument to the
greatness of the Romans in their
road building. In this religious and
historical photo-drama Nero burns
Rome and feeds the Christians to
the lions, and the story tells of the
sacrifices made by a Young noble
man for love an an ideal.

the Metro all-star series picture,

been obtained by Metro under spe-
cial permit of the federal authori-
ties, cruised for three days off the
Golden Gate at San Francisco Dur
ing the entire voyage the weather
was bad and the seas choppy.
Hardened mariners Saboard the
ship admitted that she was rolling
some" and Miss Dana protested that
it was even worse than that, but
she stuck to the ship. 1t was only
when she struck dry land again that
the Metro star noticed anything out
of the ordinary Then the side
walks seemed to be coming up to
meet her. Her friends gaZed at her
in establishment as she walked, and
then Viola told them that she had
acquired sea legs while doing
water stuff for Breakers Ahead"
