Common Sense Ways to
Keep Well
BY DR.. r. =. BISHOP
rtIRERclJIosls.

Medical science has learned that
more can be infinitely more
against tuberculosis or any other raw
aging disease, by remedying the
causes or catching 1t in its early
stages before it gets a strangle hold
on the body.
Catch tuberculosis in its early
stages and your chances of recovery
are great: allow it to go far and little
can be done to cure the disease.
Strange to say. there are few OF US
who do not have some tuberculosis
germs in our bodies. The reason we
are not all tubercular is that good care
Of the body or a good constitution rem
ders the germs harmless.
Every three minutes someone in the
United States dies from tuberculo-
sis. or consumption, as it is often
called.
The disease is caused by a living
germ in the lungs. The body OF a
healthy person can resist its growth
and may kill the germs, but in a weak
body not having proper care, the
germs fast multiply until the lungs
are consumed and the victim dies.
These germs are found in the spit
of a consumptive- small numbers
in the early stage in countless millions
in advanced stages.
Among the earlier symptoms one
can observe land which should lead
one at once to consult a physician),
are slight cough, lasting a month or
longer; loss Of weight, slight fever
In the afternoon and bleeding from the
lungs.
People lose valuable time who have
these preliminary symptoms and do
not consult a competent physician.
a careful examination Of the lungs
should be made.
II there is any suspicion of tu-
berculosis, one may have his spdt ex-
amined through the microscope at
clinic or dispensary. State boards of
health will usually do this free Of
charge.
There are several important facts
to remember in order that tuberculo-
sis may be prevented:
Careless splitting spreads the dis
ease. Sick persons should burn their
spit.
Homes and workshops should be
clean and thoroughly ventilated Dirt
and impure air are allies Of the dis
ease.
Mouth and throat should always be
covered when sneezing or coughing
Insist on others doing the same.
Become a fresh air crank Better
"a live fresh air crank than an al
most lifeless hot house invalid.
Open the windows in home and Of
flee to let in fresh air and let out
stale
Walk as often and as much as pos
sible, even at the risk OF becoming
a little tired
Sleep with windows wide open.
Germs cannot live in the fresh air.

At a recent meeting at the American
Farm Bureau Federation headquarters
IN Chicago Chairman Eugene Meyer,
Jr., of the War Finance corporation
board, reviewed very thoroughly his
recent trip through the various agTi-
cultural and live stock cities.
He showed a very comprehensive
draft Of the needs of the situation and
was particularly impressed with the
emergency confronting live stock pro
ducers.
He indicated that every effort would
be made to avail the farmers through
their banks or cooperative organiza-
tions as rapidly as possible of every
benefit or the funds at the disposal
of his board and was very optimistic

The officers of the American Farm

they do not consider the War Finance

urging the farmers and local bankers

jerks responded promptly, and Web
ster, gazing reflectively at the old
lady's beard, wondered why she had
not been born a man.
Dolores, fearful for her benefactor's

At 10 o'clock Webster accompanied
Mother jerks home In the carriage,
which he dismissed at FL Buen Amigo
with Instructions to return to the
hotel while he continued afoot down
the Gale San Rosario to the bay,
where Leber's huge corrugated iron
warehouse doomed darkly above high
water mark. He slipped along in the
deep shadow Of the warehouse wall
and III on the end of the little dock,
where he satisfied himself that Lee
ber'S launch was at its mOOrings;
then he went back to the warehouse
and whistled softly, ~whereupon a man

and laid finger on lip. "They got in

"Very well, sor," Don Juan replied,
and crawled back under the ware
house.
Half an hour later the sound Of
hOof beats warned him of the ap-
prOach of Webster and Dolores in q

the launch such baggage as they had
been enabled to bring, and held the

She did not answer, and Webster
knew her thoughts were out where the
arc lights on the outskirts of Buena-
ventura met the open country-out
where the brother she could scarcely
remember and whom, until a month
previous, she had believed dead, would
shortly muster his not too numerous
followers.
In the darkness Webster could hear
the click Of her beads as she prayed;
IN the turtle deck forward Don Juan
Cafetero sprawled, thinking perchance
Of his unlovely past and wondering
what effect the events shortly to tran.
spire ashore would have on his future.
He wished Webster would relent and
offer him q drink some time within the
next t%wenty-four hours. In times Of
excitement like the present a man
needs a drop to brace him up.
Five times the launch slipped lazi-
ly down the harbor along the stray

across the still waters the sound Of a
gentle purring-the music Of an auto
truck. He set the launch In toward
