7 HAVE been rejected by the
i army on account OF organic
cardiac disease causing murmurs.
What does this mean and can it
be cured?-J. L. s.
An organic disease OF the heart is
one involving structural change.
Functional disorders are those due
merely to arrangement of mechan-
ism and are less serious than the
organic conditions. The valves OF
the heart are composed of white
flbrous tissue. like the lining of our
joints, and rheumatism OF the acute
inflammatory variety attacks this
kind Of tissue in preference 10 any
other. This is the reason why such
a large percentage OF cases OF rheu-
mstism are complicated by valvu-
lar disease OF the heart. AS a re-
suit of the Inflammation OF the lin
ing OF the heart, known as the en-
docardium, We have an endocardi-
tbs which brings about structural
alterations in the valves. and they
allow the blood 10 leak through
them a little when the heart is
pumping. This failure 10 close per
fectly gives rise 10 blowing souns
which the examiner hears with his
steshoscope, the sound being due
10 the leakage mentioned Struct-
ural changes OF this character in
the heart lining are permanent, but
are not OF very great import so long
as the heart muscle compensates;
thai is, natufe has provided way
in which certain changes take place
in the heart muscle which offset
wholly or largely the effect OF the
valvular leakage. Great strains,
such as are likely in military life,
are more apt 10 break down an arti-
ficially compensated heart than a
normal one. By living hygienically.
however, you have nothing % fear.

My Advice to the Thin
BIZ Lima Cd0diieri,
The Most Famous Living Beauty.

A MAN possessing all straight
- lines may be called hand
= some. But graceful curves
and softly rounded contours cOnsti-
tute a woman's chief claim TO
beauty-at least go far as her hg-
ure is concerned. So, naturally,
every woman. while not desiring to
be fat, wants to possess a figure
that is pleasantly rounded and
plump.
But while womanly lines, not
angles. are wholly desirable, many
women are unable TO solve the
problem OF gaining the necessary
flesh to pad out their thin bodies.
Il is easy enough for a Fat woman
TO get thin, IL she will practice
sufficient self denial. but the thin
woman who would become plump
must overcome many things--Ae-
redity, temperament and that habit
OF mind which prevents her doing
the things that would increase her
weight.
For the thin woman who would
become plump there must be a rad
zeal change IN her manner of living.
First, she must learn a lesson from
her fat sister. II is not to worry.
Look at the fat women you know.
DO you ever see them worry? No;
they take every days happenings
Just as It comes. Worrying about
things won't change them, and
after It is all over it isn't necessary.
Then, too, the thin woman must
learn to rest. The thin woman Is
usually a reckless spendthrift Of Vi
tally. She does too much needless
work. Even il the work seems es-
sential, if she will think carefully,
and plan ahead, much OF It can be
omitted entirely.
The next thing in importance for
the thin woman TO consider is her
diet. Her greatest hope OF in
creased flesh lies in her food OF
course, one must make allowance
for possible variations in the diges-
tive powers of different individuals,
but here is a comprehensive list OF
foods that contain either sugar and
starch, or both. In fact, il includes
practically everything needful for
the taking on of flesh:
Milk heads the list, because It is
probably the best single food for
increasing the weight, and the one
