advanced to $4,000 where the in

that these men are compelled to buy

has gone up in recens years, the fair

ished, and their chemical makeup
changed. The skin is thickened, and
usually is yellow, wrinkled, and
looks too large for the body. The
head is large, producing certain abb
normal effects on the brain, and the
nose is broad and fiat. The lips are
apt to be thick and swollen, and the
tongue is very large. The legs are
almost invariably short and more or
less bowed. The mind is always con-
siderably below normal, and cretins
are often deaf.
All these distortions of body and
mind must be cured, as we'll as the
physical size increased, by the pro-
posed thyroid treatment. To the
outsider, it is almost incredible that
all these very disagreeable changes
can result from the drying up of a
single pair of tiny glands in the neck.

A WAR INVENTION.

For some time past rumors have
been current in Europe of a mys.
terious invention by means of which
automobiles and even airplanes can
from q distance, be brought to a
standstill. The recent forced de-
| scents, said to be eight in number, OF
airplanes of the Franco-Roumanian
airplane line, flying over German
territory, were declared to be in no
way due, as at first supposed, to
ordinary motor trouble, but were
really the result of the exercising
of a mysterious controlling force,
operated from the ground.
Such reports were 50 extraordi-
nary that they were received with
skepticism. This attitude Is, how
ever, no longer possible after an Off
cial of the French air ministry has
ment is in touch with successful ex-
periments for the control of auto
mobiles from a distance. The same
official denies, however, that there
is any proof that the Germans have
succeeded in applying the new in
vention to the stopping of airplanes
in fight.
At the same time he did not deny
that the new invention. might prove
capable of extension to airplanes.
His denial is consoling as far as it
goes, but the fact remains that the
eight machines of the Franco-Rou-
manian air line which were forced
to descend, all developed their motor
trouble at the same spot in Bavaria.
AS was inevitable, the French au-
thorities are already in search of a
counter-invention whic will protect
aircraft and automobiles against the
effects of this mysterious power. If
this should not be promptly discov-
cred the effect of the arresting
power would be revolutionary. All
modern armies are forced to depend
upon motor power, not molly for con-
veying food and munitions, but also
FIR drawing the heavy guns and
working the tanks. Without unim-
peded motor power. warfare as it is
at present practiced would be inn
possible.

Q. Why are quiet, happy days re-
ferred to as halcyon days? L. S p.
A. Halcyon days is a name given
by the ancients to the seven days

that during this time, while the hal

Health Talks
Women Are STRONGER

Recently l read an article COM
planning how many women were
losing the sap of life," as the ar
t Gle expressed it.. Through change
in occupation, mode of living.
change in marriage relations and
the average number of children.
weakness was attacking our female
population. Women in working oc-
equations, where the strictest reg
ulations are not enforced, were
gradually showing a let-down in
physical condition. The spirit of
don't care" seemed to pervade
many districts where workers pre-
dominated.
1 must confess that, to me, it
seemed to be all the other way, so
far as physical or athletic conditions
are concerned. In fact, l am strong
ly of the opinion that many kinds of
work improved rather than weak
ened women in general.
More women ever of the middle
and working classes enter into
sports of some kind today than ever
before. They wear fewer clothes to
hinder and impede their movements.
Their garments are also far more
sensible and conducive to health in
every way.
1t is well known that W. a mod
crate amount OF exercise causes the
heart to beat more quickly. Unless
the exercise is excessive, although
the heart beats fast, there is a
steady, regular rhythm, so hat the
right ventricle sends more blood
through the vessels of the lungs and
the left ventricle more blood through
the rest of the body. This increase
of blood through the lungs permits
more oxygen to be taken into the
blood and more carbonic acid to be
excreted and both of these condi-
lions ATE favorable to muscle growth
and bodily health.
Perhaps the best gain of all to
girls and women through exercise
is by an increased appetite. 1t en-
ables food to be more rapidly abb
sorbed from the stomach and intes-
tines as we'll as giving more COM
plete oxidation In the tissues.
Women are getting stronger and
healthier. Alls our college records
prove 1t and averages will soon be
available to show results.
