want TO say that the general
opinion among men everywhere is
that the root of all this trouble origi-

much dissa atisfied with the outcome
at the conference held In Lincoln
last October. And at the Grand
Island convention In December his
plans were absolutely ignored and
condemned.
sorensen is progressive to be
considered in the tadpole stage. but
when fully developed he is anything

It is a fact, however, that some-

PERNIcIoUs ANEMIA.

severe anemia.
He has recently given a British
Medical association address In which
he, as tho result OF 80 years study
OF severe anemias. sets forth views
and opinions that are worthy OF
study.
What is ordinarily called pernic-
ious anemia he calls Elossitic anemia.
This disease starts In the summer
between July and September. The
first attack begins with sore
tongue. and no other symptom VIII

tongue may be red. raw. becfy.

The attack OF sore tongue lasts n

about three weeks.
Careful examination may show the
following: Slight Jaundice. fever.
high colored urine. anuria. There
may be sore stomach or sore bowels.
After September these symptoms
disappear and the subject feels well.
The following summer. about the
same time. the symptoms renppear,
and last for about the same length
Of time. They are Of the same pat
tern as the first year. but they are
materially worse.
For instance. the ancmia may
drive the hemoglobin as low as 40
per cent: the jaundicc may be defl-
mite and the fever may be high
enough TO be noticed by the careless.
In the autumn the conditions
again become normal.

to start the blood examinations

In times past the diagnosis OF per-

until some time after the onset OF
this third attack. In other words.
the subject has had the disease at
least two years before 1t was dag
nosed or even suspected.
This is a very important point.
since DR.. Hunter thinks a good deal
can be done in the way Of treatment
Of what he calls glossitic anemia--
called hy others pernicious anemia.

Reports from adjoining counties are that wheat

An Active Life Advised,

Mrs. o. H. e. writes: Il. Please
print a good diet for an expectant
mother
"2. What is your advice for a
stubborn case Of constipation?
"3. What kinds Of exercise are
not too strenuous for the expectant
mother?'' ...u.r.
REPLY.
I. An expectant mother should
eat about what any normal woman
should. Many theories on this sub
ject are wrong. One is the theory
that she must eat for two. This has
done harm because 1t has caused
some women to overeat until they
upset their digestion.
Another is that the woman eat
sparingly lest the baby be large and
her labor difficult. This has caused
some women to eat too little and
thus imperil the supply of breast
milk.
Q. Unless plenty OF bran. vege-
tables and fruit and water will cor
rect the habit the case is one for
the doctor.
3. I think an expectant mother
will do we'll to lead an active life.
Walking, horseback riding, golf,
swimming should help. not harm.

Miss Lillian Baker in Play at Fayette

Lillian Baker, playing the role of
Mrs. Debney in the drama "The
Builder of Bridges" given by the
second dramatic art class of Upper
Iowa University, carried q difficult
part in a remarkably fine way. As
the aunt and chaperon of a modern
young girl she had use for all of her
experience with men which she had
gained through previous marriages.
Her clever work was one of the most
enjoyable features of the evening.
The Dramatic Art classes, under
the direction of Mrs. Margaret Jayne
Collett, make a study of the litera-
tire of the drama and its artistic
merit and produce a number of plays
each year which are acted, managed,
and staged by the members of the
class. "The Builder of Bridges" is
undoubtedly one of the finest which
has been produced and afforded the
delighted audience an evening of
pleasure and profit.
