"LEARN HOW TO KEEP
WELL" IS ADVICE TO
CITIZENS OF KANSAS

Topeka, Kans., Dec. 5.-"Learn
how to keep well. Live wiseley.
Eat sanely. Cultivate the great
outdoors. Sleep soundly in fresh
air. Go to doctor every year to
have a thorough overhauling. so
that small faults may be corrected
before they have a chance to be-
come big ones. This is the way to
have good health"
The foregoing is the concluding
paragraph of the message issued
by the state board of health to the
citizens of Kansas as they observe
this week as health week, by proc
lamation of Governor Henry ]. AL
len.
In the message, the health de-
partment declares that the aroused
interest of school children and the
public as whole is in a large
measure responsible for the rapidly
decreasing mortality rate of ty-
phoid fever. Twenty years ago, the
message states, the death rate for
typhoid in the United States was
80 for each 100000 inhabitants,
The mortality rate for 1918
in the registration area was
l2.5. The death rate for typhoid
In Kansas in 1919 was only 7.6
per 100000 inhabitants, the mes
sage states.
Nowadays" the message con-
tinues, typhoid fever is suffi-
ciently rare to become a matter
Of interest, and the doctor who
has a case will take young physi-
slams to see 1t in order that they
nay have an opportunity to note
he symptoms of this rare dis
,ase."

London, Dec. 5.-(Spccial) IA
Surprisingly large number of Brit
ish beauties, whose wealth and
titles as well as their beauty have
made them internationally known,
are seeking their freedom from
marital bonds. The latest schedule
or cases in the divorce court con-
tains many such names.
Two OF the women petitioners
who are well known in America
are the Countess of Drogheda and
Miss Gladys Cooper, actress.
Attention was drawn to the blast
ed romance of the Countess Of
DroSheda as long ago as last May
when she obtained a decree against
the Earl of Drogheda for restitu-
tion of conjugal rights, which he
has ignored. She alleged then that
the earl had left her eight months
previous, Now she wishes all ties
cut.
The countess and earl were mar
rled March 8, 1909, in Edinburgh.
The earl is the tenth of his line,
Henry Charles Ponsonby Moore,
now representative peer for Ire
land, a clerk in the British foreign
office, lieutenant of County Kildare
and a second lieutenant in the Irish
guards.
There are two children, Charles
Garrett Ponsonby, Viscount Moore,
who was eleven years old last April,
and Patricia Roreen, who was nine
in September. .
