RULES FOR LIVING

ic and Serious Illnesses Who
Could Have Avoided Them
by Sensible Living, Says the
City Health Officer, Who
Advises Moderation
How to be YOUNG at 6O!

Dr. ]. NJ. ]. Raunick, city health
day lays down a number of rules
showing how Harrisburg men and
women may not only reach that age,
but what is more important, have
sound, healthy bodies after three
score years of work and play.
Many hundred Harrisburgers are
seriously i'll and thousands of others
more or less frequently are ailing
because of their neglecting to follow
the simplest rules, the city health
officer believes.
His Own Guardian
This same view is held by virtu-
ally every physician in the city, 1t
was learned to-day. Much stress
was laid upon the necessity of peri
odical examination. Such eXamln-
ations it was said would show at the
development stages the small list OF
disease which kill large numbers of
men and women in the prime of
life.
Every man is the guardian of
his own health" said DR.. Raunlck
when asked to lay out a chart show
ing how to lead healthy life. Most
of our troubles are due to our own
negligence in properly caring for our
bodies.
Moderation i'll Diet
'Be in the open air and sunshine
as much as possible, and avoid over
heated and poorly ventilated places.
Take plenty of exercise and
breathe regularly and deeply.
Live on a diet of meat (once
daily eggs, cereals, green vegetables,
fruit and milk Avoid cold drinks
especially at meals; chew food
slowly and thoroughly, and use the
toothbrush regularly.
Take a daily bath and, if the
heart can stand it, take u sweat
bath once every week or two.
Secure daily action of the
bowels and take a purgative once
week If constipation exists.
Wear Sensible Clothes
Wear porous clothing, loose col
lars, light shoes and hats and dress
in keeping with the weather.
Retire early and rise early. Sleep
in a dark, quiet room with open win
dows and sleep from to s hours.
Rest for whole day each week
without even reading or writing.
BE Temperate
avoid fatigue and excitement and
don't worry about things that have
happened or may happen. Never
say unpleasant things and don't lis
ten too much.
BE temperate in all things, espe-
cially in the use of alcohol, tobacco,
coffee, tea and also the new drinks
now being exploited.
Get married and have a happy
home.
Consult your physician and have
regular periodical examinations
made by him to determine disease
changes; take no medicine except by
your physicians advice

Fields in Heavy Down
pour of Rain

forty handsomely gowned women
rushed panic-stricken from a resi-
dence in Cedarhurst near here yes
terday following raid on the house
where gambling is said to have been
in progress. Despite a heavy down.
pour, the women succeeded in fore
ing their way past the guards and
escaping over muddy fields.
The raid was made by members
of the State Constabulary and sew
eral special policemen, although it
is said to have been inspired by the
Nassau Association, composed of
wealthy Nassau county residents
who for some time have been arous-
ed by numerous reports of society
gambling in their midst.
The raiders entered the house with
drawn reVolvers. 1t was the sight
of these weapons that created panic
among the women, according to
members of the raiding party, and
put vim in their fight through the
soggy fields.
Three men and a truckload of
gambling paraphernalia were taken
by the raiders. who said that some
of the poker chips were marked as
high as 1000. The men refused to
give their names, and were booked
at police headquarters as John Su-
perintendent," John Bookkeeper'
and John Doorkeeper."
