SALT AND NERVOUSNESS H. Arlington Bruce

to learn TO be moderate in the use of salt.
Not alone your nervous system but your stom-
ach, kidneys and intestines will suffer if you per-
sist in your passion for salt. So
Chronic diarrhoea is known to be produced
in some people by excessive salt eating. To the
same cause has been attributed some part in the
development of Bright's disease and certain forms
of heart disease. All dropsical tendencies are
tainly intensified by the of salt.
eff we have disease like Bright's which al
ready tends to produce dropsy," notes Richard
Cabot, "all the salt take into bodies tends
to increase the danger of dropsy.
I'VE caution people not to cut salt out alto
gether, but to add little possible and yet have
appetite for their meals
This caution is applicable to all of US, and par
tcualrly to those of who, being free from obvious
disorders of Kidneys stomach, ntestines, or heart
have to admit that not free from nervous
ness.
Excessive salt eating all too easily becomes
habitual. But by the exercise of watchfulness and
will-power, moderate salt-eatng may just as surely
be made habitual
At first our food may not taste as good as 1t
used to. We shall be sorely tempted to shower it
with salt as in the old days of high seasoning
But if persevere, the discovery will follow
that we get along very WELL and actually enjoy
food more, without the over-salting to which
we're addicted
selves into moderate eaters of SALT it should not
be long before we observe a distinct improvement
in nervous control and in our health as a whole.

PROPER OCCASIONS FOR FEAR

Light forever follows darkness, good often
comes from evil, and courage is often born of fear
Fear is of the strongest of human instincts

The progress from brute to man is character

quency of proper occasions for fear" wrote Will
liam James, first among American psychologists.
There are, evidently few proper occasions
for fear but still it is quite possible for compacent
and unimaginative persons to live through their
generation without experiencing the feeling at ALL
Even the atrocities committed by the Hunnish
hordes do not touch certain minds and hearts
James, although he died years ago. hit such
cases in this paragraph:
I'VE conclude (if we know fear) that the
horrors we hear of but a sort of painted tapes
try for the chambers in which lie so comfort
ably at peace with ourselves and with the world"
Evidently fear must have very positive value
if it individual from such lethargy.
And, in fact fear has often benefited man. Fear of
hunger forced man to and reap. Fear of pain
drove him to cure disease. Fear of poverty drove

GeOrg5G'S w. S. S. Sales.

Figures just issued by Hugh Richardson state
director for War Savings Stamps in Georgia, show
that the people of this state are long way behind
in the purchase of these war securities.
Georgia's quota of War Savings Stamps is $751;,
100000. Up to March 81, Georgia had purchased
only $1,4122O1, leaving balance of $56,O87,799
to be sold during the remainder of the year.
Georgia's per capita quota for the year is $40,
the the per capita quota in all other states.
Up to March 81, Georgia had purchased average
of only so cents per capita, leaving balance
of $3.50 capita to be purchased during
the remainder of the year
The War Savings Stamp quota of s57500,Oo0
for this state is than half as large the third
Liberty Loan quota for the whole Sixth Federal Re-
serve district, comprising nearly six states.
This means that the patriotic men and women
of the state who have done such splendid and eff
fective work in the Liberty Loan campaign which
closed today, must put their shoulders to the wheel
county
The mistaken impression has got abroad in
Georgia that War Savings Stamps are meant only
for children-that the plan of this campaign is one
which the government depends on the boys and
girls to carry through.
Anyone who ponders for a moment the quota of
$57,500 900 will at once perceive the error of any
such notion. Selling average of $40 worth Of
War Savings Stamps for every man, woman and
child, black and white in Georgia by the end of
the year, is task that challenges the enthusiasm
and effort of full-grown men
OF the children have an important part
in the movement, and doing their part. But
Georgia will finish the year at the bottom of the
list if we depend upon the children to discharge
this undertaking which rests upon all.
