What Causes
uI-Health
By Brice Belden, NJ. D.

THERE Is nothing that we can
not know about disease.
= There is nothing to prevent
the layman from getting an intel
ligent understanding OF how it
comes about. II a general knOwl-
edge Of the causation and preven-
tion Of disease were possessed by
the people their welfare would be
enormously advanced.
In olden times. disease was re-
garded as a taking possession Of
the body by an evfl spirit, which
had to be cast out BY some Sort OF
necromancy. Today disease is rec
ognized as an inability on the part
of the body to function properly
under favorable conditions.
Violation Of the laws OF health
is responsible for sickness and
premature death. Owing to this,
man lives out hut a fraction OF his
natural term OF life. knowledge or
the laws Of health and their prac-
tical application would prevent
most disease.
Most diseases are due TO bad
hygiene. bacterial infection and eX-
cesses in eating, which last leads 70
pollute the blood. The body can
resist these assaults up to a certain
point-can maintain the balance
which we call health. .
There is a protective principle In
the body which enables US TO re-
sist disease. provided we sustain
this principle by natures medicines
pure air, food and water. Even
after disease gains foothold cure
depends upon maintaining resist
ing power at a high point. Drugs
play but a small part in the scheme
Of defense.
THE blood is the life The cure
Of disease may be said to depend
upon the removal Of the cause, when
known, and the upbuilding Of the
body through natural agencies.
The white cells OF the blood ina
lures policemen play a great part
in the mechanism Of defense. espe-
cially in the case OF bacterial in
lection. and their power is aug
mented mainly by invoking the
natural agencies mentioned and, by
avoiding depressing and poisonous
factoTR among which alcohol takes
the arst place, for il exerts a dis
tinctly paralyzing effect upon the
policemen Of the blood.

I EE Brown, the police say,
Killed Joe Igley back in
the summer Of 1918, and
Brown Is now at the Dis
trict Jail waiting for them TO prove
it. He stoutly denies being the
cause Of Igley's death and declares
again and again that he knows
nothing about 1t.
Brown even visited the home q
the slain man several days after he
was found, shot several times, ly-
ing dead in the southeast section
Of the city. Brown says he offered
to help Igley's wife 'Iay him out"
They may sentence Brown to die,
for the police believe they have
pretty conclusive evidence proving
Brown the slayer OF Igley. But
Brown does not seem worried. He
eats three square meals a day,
sleeps we'll and does no worrying.
What Brown says.
Brown says:
They may say I have to die.
But / am not worried. I didn't
kill Joe Igley, and the police know
il. They've got to arrest somebody,
so I'm the goat"
As the story goes, Brown and
Igley had been working togetheE
on some street jobs for the Dis
triCt. They were the best OF friends
and always got along we'll at their
work. Brown says he never quar-
relied with Igley in his life.
Anyhow, on one particular SatuF-
Tday afternoon in October Brown
was sent out to Second and Virginia
aveRde southeast to work with Ig-
ley. Brown says he was working on
one corner and -Igley at another.
After the work was finished, Brown
went on home, satisfied he had done
a good days work
He didn't see his boss until the
next day, when he was told: "Joe'H
dead" He inquired how he died,
and the boss said he was shot.
Il naturally was upset over Ill"
Brown said in an interview at the
District Jail. "and I asked the boss
il he needed me for the day. He
said no. I went home and told my
wife and she told me to go over to
Igley's house.

"I went over there and met Joe's
wife. We talked about JOe's death

The Rhyming
Optirnist
By Alice MiehaeIis.

7 KNOW a fellow in our town
built like an aeropIane: no
o earthly power could keep him
down his star will never wane.
With troubles that would get the
best OF other folks I know. for him
they seem to give a zest to days
that are too slow. He has had set
backs all aIeng since first he started
in; but stiH he sings his. CHEEKY
song and smiles, his gladsome grin.
That may be why he made his way
up from his lOwly place; it's mighty
hard to run away from such
smiling face. Though Fate is
dubbed a cruel jade, I think she'd
not turn down a friend who all the
game has played with smile instead
OF frown. 1 guess that's why he
makes a hit with most folks in
these parts; he always grabs 'em by
the nit and smiles and wins their
hearts. OF course, that's not his
only stall, he works with might
and main, nor turns his face unto
the wall however great the strain
He does not prate OF friendships
fair and then TO friends in need
prove there was nothing but hot
air in all his lofty screed. In fact
he has not much to say; but all
his talk is true, and those who
know his silent way like this about
him, too. He takes along a hint OF
hope right with him everywhere:
it's hard for folks to sit and NOPE
with him a-smiiing there. He's Of
that happier, brighter train, who
win most every crown. because,
built like an aeroplane, you cannot
keep them down. He doesn't fear
his powers to try or that his star
viii wane. e,knows his limit Is
the sky this human aeroplane.
