MY prayers. l pray that I may ye.,
see you all face to face, sometime way

to take in few more sights of this
town They certainly don't look at all
IKE any Of our towns over in the

How are all the good friends around

How is it that you never say any
thing about Uncle Johnny Walker?
GIVE him my address and tell him to
write me when he finds time.

the establishment of the school, was

HEAIIHH HINTS.

Year by year the deaths from degen.
eratfye diseases mount IN the mortal.
ity tables Of health officials.
It is probable the majority Of deaths
from Brigat's disease, one Of the most
OF the degenerative his, date back TO
childhood and an attack OF scarlet
fever.
Some vital organ slightly damaged
by an infection of childhood may be
equal to the needs OF youth and the
growing adult life but in later age pc
RODS the stress and strain OF business
worry, the carelessness in eating and
drinking, IN occupation ana in pleas
ure add their little to an already over
burdened bodily machinery. The re-
suit is that chronic disease processes
are started in highly specialized or
gaps, such as the kidneys, which 1t is
difficult or impossible to restrain.
Complete control OF childhood iniec-
ton will eventually do away with a
great part OF the high death rate from
Bright's disease IN later life.
The increase in the apopleIy rate
indicates further falling away from
the standards OF right living. Apop.
Iexy results as the final ending OF a
condition known as atheroma which
is brought on by improper food, want
OF exercise and fresh air, In short, a
life OF perhaps mental activity with a
minimum OF regard to physical re-
quirements.
