GO TO EXTREMES
Health FaddistS Apt to Become a
Nuisance.
Hard TO Deny That There Are Many
Like the Unfortunate Jiggins, Who
Literally Dumb Beir Them
selves to Death.

The following editorial from the
Gary Times is printed By the Journal
of the American Medical Association
as a lesson to health faddists:
There is a great deal Of truth in the
Satiricai story Of Jiggins, who had the
health habit. Jiggins lived 20 years
ago, and health was a disease with
him. The Dallas News says that jig
gins took a cold plunge every morning.
He said it opened the pores After it
he took a hot sponge. He said it
closed Il'e pores. He got so that he
could open and shut his pores at
will
Jiggins used to stand and breathe
at an open window for half an hour
before dressing lie said it expanded
his lungs. He might, of course, have
had 1t done in shoe shop with a
boot strctcher; but, after all it cost
him nothin" this way. And what is
half an hour:
After he had got his vest on, Jig
gins used to hitch himself up like
a dog in harness and. do shadow ex-
ercises. He did them forward, back
ward and hindside up.
He could have got a job as a dog
anywhere. He spent all his time at
this kind of thing. In bis spare time
at the Office he used to lie on his
stomach on the floor and see if he
could lift himself up with his knuckles.
If he could, then he tried some other
way until he found one that he
couldn't do. Then he would spend the
rest Of his lunch hour on his stom-
ach perfectly happy.
In the evenings, in his room, he used
to lift iron bars, cannon balls, heavy
dumb-beIIs and haul himself up to
the ceiling with his teeth.
He liked It,
He spent half the night singing him
self around his room. He said it made
his brain clear. When he got his brain |
perfectly clear he went TO bed and !
slept. As soon as he awoke he began !
clearing it again.
Jiggins is dead. He was, of course, I
q pioneer; hut the fact that he dumb !
bclIed himself to death at an early |
age does not prevent a whole genera |
ton of young men from following in /
his path.
They are ridden by the health
mania.
They make themselves a nuisance. !
They get up at impossible hours.
They go out in silly little suits and !
run marathon heats before breakfast. !
They chase around barefoot to get the |
dew on their feet. They hunt for !
ozone. They bother about pcpSin. /
They won't eat meat because it has
too much nitrogen. They won't eat |
fruit because it hasn't got any. They |
prefer albumin and starch TO buckle (
berry pie and doughnuts. They won't ,
drink water out of tap. They won't /
eat sardineS ont of tin. They won't /
use oysters out of Il pail. They won't !
drink milk out of 4 glass. They are !
afraid. Yes, sir, afraid. towards.
And after all their fuss they pres
entity incur some simple, oId-faShioaed |
illness and die like anybody else.

To Award 7 Medals for
Lifesaving in Mines
Safety Association to Give Pub
lie Recognition for Deeds
Of VaIor

From, The Tribuns's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, June 29.-Four min
ers and the nearest surviving relatives
OF three more who sacrificed their lives
in attempts to rescue other miners
from death, will receive gold medal
awards from Joseph A. Holmes Safety
Association. the hero commission for
the mining industry.
announcement of the awards was
will be made at the International First
Aid and Mine Rescue Contest at Den
yer, September 9, 10 and H.
The deeds of valor in connection
with the gold medal awards are:
John L. Bordman, of Butte, lone
handed. saved three miners and assist
cd in the rescue of fourth.
Daniel Bionvitch, of Biwalik, Mimi,
four times drove his electric locomotive
through smoke and gases in burning
mine, bringing out helpless men.
James Collins and James Dilimirk,
both of Mullen, Idaho, while endeavor-
ing to reach entombed men, were
caught by a cave-in and imprisoned
were buried to the shoulders.
On June 8, 1917, a fire occurred in
the North Butte mines. Michael Con-
roy and Peter Sheridan started down
to save their fellow men, but before
they reached them the fresh air, which
had been coming down the shaft, re-
versed, allowing hot and poisonous
gases to come up the shaft The
burned bodies of the two men were
found on the cage.
James D. Moore, another miner, at
the same fire, after he had collected
seven men, was driven back by the
smoke and decided that the only hope
would be to build a bulkhead as pro-
lection against the gases and remain
behind it until rescued. The men OBJ
tanned cir from the compressed line
near by.
Moore cheered the men and wrote
farewell letter to his wife. Sixty hours
later rescuers broke through and found
six men alive and two dead, the latter
including Moore.

Boy, Torn From Father
By Boats Wash, browns
Parent Fights in Vain to Rescue
Lad After Getting Him
Almost to Shore

Conrad Scherer, sixteen, of Maspeth,
L. l., was drowned yesterday afternoon
in Flushing Bay. His father, who was
swimming with him. made desperate
effort to save him and was nearly
drowned himself.
The boy was seized with cramps.
When his father had brought him al
most within reach of the shore, the
wash from passing steamer pulled
the boy from his grasp Scherer was
so exhausted that his efforts to reach
MS son again failed. The police are
dragging for the body.
Yhe bodies of William Riddell of
Ellmhurst, L. l.. and Walter V. Schepp,
MS chum, of Baldwin, L. l., were re-
covered yesterday by the police from
a pond at Baldwin. The two boys went
out together on Sunday and had not
been seen since. When the bodies were
found, Riddell was wearing a bathing
suit, while Schepp was fully dressed
The police surmise from this that Rid
dell went swimming and got into diff
culties and that his chum Jumped in to
years old
