Bill was a fellow who knew his rights,
and knew them from A tosZ, {
He'd read the books and he'd read the
law and rightful chap was he;
He walked the streets with his head
up high and he jostled his fellow
man,
For Bill didn't know that his own
right ceased whore the other
chaps right began.
'This is the land Of the free" said
Bill. as he strutted his way along,
"Ive right to live as I please and be
the Judge of what's right and
wrong"
And he laughed whenever his neigh
bors frowned, and little he SEEM
ed to care
That he was the pest Of The heighbor-
hood and nobody liked him there.

oughly examined for evidence of dis
ease Extreme overweight especially
at middle life produces as high a
death rate as heart disease. Cut down
the fat-forming foods, such as bread

Hernia or Rupture Operation Is
often advisable. Consult your family
physician or go to good hospital for
advice and treatment.
Piles, Hemorrhoids- These are Of
ten caused by constipation and lack Of
exercise. Do not make a habit of
drugs or purgatlves. Plenty of bulky
food, bran bread or biscuits, fruits, let
tuce, spinach, cabbage brussels
sprouts, carrots, turnips, and oyster
plant will tend to correct constipation.
If piles are severe, operation will
help, but the original cause should be
removed by proper diet.

may be relieved by the use of woven
castle bandages or stockings At times
one may consider removal by opera

Go to your physician or to a dispen-
sary or hospital and place yourself
under careful medical supervision.
Regulation of your diet, work, and ac.
tivities may be all that is necessary,
but your condition shold be watched
from time to time. Albumin in the ur-
inc may be temporary. but should al
ways be followed up and examination
made at intervals. Give the benefit
of the doubt to your kidneys, and
live temperate and healthful life.
