INTESTINAL VERTIGO
BY H. Addington Bruce

VERTIGO, or dizziness, has as it's COM
" monest causes eye strain or ear trou-
BILE. But it may appear as symp-
tom in various conditions of disease not as
ISOLATED with either the ears or the eyes, and
sometimes medical men are hard put to as
certain just what is causing it.
One cause not always taken into account,
as it should be, is intestinal disorder AS
the New York Medical Journal editorially
reminds it's professional readers:
Like the tomach the intestine bay be the
cause of the phenomena of vertigo. Glenard,
Sigaud, Vincent, not to mention others, nave
met with vertigo in instances OF prolalSe OF
the transverse colon in distentlon OF She
colon by gas and typhlectasis; While Pron'
Mendel and others have reported instances
of vertigo in cases of chronic enterocolltls.
Cali types of vertigo may be met with in
intestinal disturbances, from simple lndec1-
sion in walking to the state of NAL vertigo
neux,' and even Menieres vertigo, with fall
ing and vomiting, has been known to occur
Of course medical ability to cope with
vertigo thus caused depends on the charac-
ter of the intestinal trouble A long and te-
dious treatment may be required, perhaps
surgical intervention. But often relief may
be obtained through simple measures.
For example, in one case reported by the
specialist, Loeper middle-aged man had
for months been afflicted not merely with
vertigo, but with a constant ringing in his
cles of his legs In fact, he walked like a
man suffering from a serious organic disease
of the nervous system.
Yet his nervous system was sound enough,
as a careful examination made certain. Nor
did he have ear disease of any kind, and he
was free from eye strain. His case remained
puzzling until he stated that he was victim
of chronic constipation, and was troubled
with headaches and nausea whenever the
constipation became pronounced
Now tentative diagnosis OF intestinal
vertigo was made, and oil enemata were or
dered or a complete emptying fthe intes-
tine. Almost at once there was recovery
of muscular control, the ringing in the ears
ceased, and the vertigo likewise.
In other cases good results have been re-
ported on treatment of dieting for the cure
of constipation and reduction of the posi-
bility of food poisoning. This last is indeed
possibility which should always be reck-
oned with in battling cases of vertigo.
Research is making it more and more evil
dent that there are many people to whom
sundry foods, particularly protein foods, are
positively poisonous Some cannot tolerate
eggs, others are poisoned by meat, others by
peas or BEANS and so forth Vertigo may
be among the symptoms of such poisoning.

The Voyage Of the Qu;stonck

~ EVENTY-ONE thousand miles In sew

and her sisters are proving thus far true TO
the traditions of their seaworthy ancestors
of long decades ago.
That interesting history Of the nations

recalls that the MARIA, built IN LOO as
Pembroke. Massachusetts, had a SAILING
life Of ninety years, and that the PERU,
launched in 1918, weathered the four wlnos
and the seven seas for sixty-slx years

an old time shipowner famous among otn-
err things for possessing fleet Whlch maoe
thirty voyages around the world, or total
of seven hundred and twenty thousand
miles. 1t brought him a fortune OF two
million dollars-large in those days-trom
Canton and Calcutta trade"
The decline of American prestige and
power on ocean trade lanes went so lamen-
tably far after the middle of the last century
that at the outbreak of the World War
more than ninety per cent OF our foreign
commerce was being carried under OF
flags But in the last three years erIorts 10

most heartening progress. We still lack
much of having enough home-owned tom
mage to serve our trade needs, let alone to
enter the wider fields of competition III

ginning has been made Millions of money
once lost to American interests in marine
freight rates and kindred charges are now
kept at home Moreover, we have an in
comparably larger measure Of independence
in these vital matters than before the new
fleet begun building. Let the excellent work
proceed with undated vigOr.

Dark Days for the S1uggard

TIME statement of large employment
agency that only the more efficient
now can get good jobs prompts the
Tacoma (Wash.) News-Tribune to remark:
This is hopeful development. 1t means
more steadiness dependability and produc-
tiveness. It is going to be easy to get done
the work which needs doing"
IT was lack of dependability and steadl-
ness during the war period and It's lmmeul-
ate aftermath that cut so great gap III pro-
duction, The several million men mustered
to the colors were Of our best slneW anu
skill, it Is true; but there were enough MIL
lions left to have done the countrys work
amply and we'll. Yet, agriculture was sorely
put to it for hands, numbers OF basic lndus-
tries stood in continual anxiety of having to
shut down, and sometimes the publics vital
needs were in danger Of going unsuppled
for want of willing and steady workers.
These conditions, it scarce need be said, were
not chargeable to true Labor, whose sturdy
and splendid devotion had a fundamental
part in the winning of the war. On the
contrary, they came from an element that
has ever been Labor's, as well as lndustrys.
besetting foe-the element that takes no
pride in good work, feels no obligation for
due service, has no thought OF thrift and
responsibility, counts idleness a very para
disc and sustained effort a purgatorial fire.
1t was this element that took advantage of
war times and the bnormal period ensuing,
and it is this that is being winnowed out
as the processes of readjustment ripen. 'The
Lord made him, therefore let him be called
man." will no longer suffice as recon-
mendaton for seekers of fat salaries and
wages. The good job is no longer a beggar
beseeching some lordly loafer to take it..
The sluggard no longer twts the ant for a
fool and dictates the pace of the nation.
Still, there is no fear of unemployment in
America-such unemployment, that is to say,
as struck deserving multitudes in dark win
ters gone by. The needs and scope of re-
construction will afford worthwhile jobs for
efficient hands and minds for at least sew
eral years come, competent observers say.

tone, and then a word to the man who was
against the Covenant because he was
against Wilson" Suppose" said Mr.. Taft
''he was asked by his grandson years later:
'Grandad, why did you vote against the
Lacquer What will you tell him? You will
do one of two things. You will either say,
Run away, Grandson, you do not understand
those issues or else you will lie about it. "
Now the pertinent question is, what can
Mr.. Taft say by way of justifying his pres
ent support of a Presidential candidate who
is avowedly for scuttling the worlds hope
of a peace-conserving League in so far as
the United States is concerned? Senator
Harding, completely dominated by the irrec-
oncilables and Bitter Enders, opposes the
Covenant regardless of whatever qualifying
and safeguarding reservations it might carr
ry He opposes, not merely it's form, but it's
essence, it's purpose, its ideal, which is to
substitute reason and justice for passion and
bloodshed in the settlement of international
disputes.
This is indeed an issue that "transcends
all parties and party triumphs;" but how
lamentably does Mr. Taft sink below his own
conception of the right!

TIMES HAVE CHANGED
SAYS VETERAN READER
AND HE TELLS ABOUT IT
To the Editor of the Tri-Weekly

ITO the leAl fellow that has lived in
the age of Old-timeism and is now
the difference to him is almost be-
yond his comprehension. Back then
we took things easy. Now we take
'em by storm. Away back yonder
we used to walk to meetin' and tote
our shoes. Now II we go to meetin,'
at all, we go in our automobiles at
the rate of thirty miles an hour, with
our fifteen dollar slippers on.
I'm the old times we had our front
yards inclosed with rail fences. Now
some Of 'em are inclosed by ever
green hedges and have concrete walks
to the front porches. 1t used to be
we wore homemade cotton shirts.
Now some of us wear silk shirts
adorned with imitation diamond stud
buttons. 1t used to be that girls
began to wear long dresses at about
sixteen or seventeen years of age.
Now they wear short dresses when
they are forty years old.
Away back yonder you could get
a pair of boots for three dollars.
They looked like it took the biggest
part of a cowhide to made 'em. Now
dollars, and it looks like the hide
off of a cows ear would furnish
enough leather to make 'em.
I'VE farmers used to have to clear
land, split rails and build fences.
Now we ride around in our automo-
biles and talk about holdin' our cot
ton for forty cents a pound. It used
to be that we young folks had dancin'
frolics. Now instead of that, they
have weekend parties and think
about how up-to-date they are.
Away back yonder we would take
our pine torches and go and sit til
bedtime with our neighbors. Now
about the only way we think of our
neighbor is how we are goin' to out
shine him and fly the highest.
"It used to be we could take a
big drink of good old sweet mash
blockade corn whisky, and 1t would
make you love your neighbor. Now
you take drink of this up-to-date
want to kill your neighbor. Away
back yonder we went slow and en-
joyed the scenery. Now we are
breakin' the speed limit.
Away back yonder when we got
sick, we had to make out on bone
set tea, asafoetida and TUFTS pills.
Now when we get sick we have to
get some specialist to prescribe for
us. He usually sends us to the sur
geon. The surgeon then takes his
carvin' knife, carves into us and
belong to our physical makeup.
81 am not worrying about the fast
times because I know that an old
timer like me can never change 'em
am just talkin' about the differ
ence between the times now, and
the times when l was a barefoot boy
