Fables On Health
BREATHE REGULARLY.

Having become interested in breath
ing exercises, Mr.. Mann began to in
quire more deeply into the effect OBJ
tanned from deep, rhythmic breathing.
And, among other things, he found
this out:
When an ordinary breath is taken
something like 10 per cent of the lung
content is changed with each breath.
When a deep breath is taken the en-
tire. lung is forced II elton and an
immediate stimular n the liver
and abdominal circ the blood.
This, in turn, ha ,pful result
of setting into acti lay stagnant
blood in those two regions, causing it
to be oxygenated. Blood pressure is
favorably influenced and persons of
high emotional tendencies can be bene-
flied by a systematic course in deep
and rhythmic breathing. 4k
Breathing should be deep and slew,
carried on rhythmically. Some or
iental races have worked out an inter
esting method to insure evenness of
breath.
They press a. finger to the side of
the nose, closing one nostril and
breathing through the other; then re-
versing to the other nostril.
While doing this it may be noted
that the sound of breathing becomes
audible and attention to this sound
of air makes it possible to note wheth-
er the breathing is irregular.

REDUCTION OF TAXES.

Tax reduction does not become effective I'M
til it reaches the pockets of the ultimate con-
sumner. In the last few days the federal gov
eminent has eliminated a lot of nuisance"
taxes, and it will be interesting to note just
how long it will be until this reduction is re-
fected in the expense account of the average
man. A reduction in admission costs to thea
tiers is in order, and that reduction should be
equivalent to the reduction that has been made
in the tax. Reductions are also in order. along
a lot of other lines where taxes have been cut
off,
Reduced taxation will not aid the average
citizen much Unless the reduction is carried on
all along the line In some of the items covered
by the tax bill it will be easy to bring the reduc-
ton to the ultimate consumer. In others it
will be more difficult for the average person
to discover that he has been aided any by this
latest action of congress- r5 A
The man who plays fair with the people who
trade with him is the fellow who puts this tax
reduction into effect at once. The man who
demands the same prices for things formerly
taxed and from which the tax has been re
moved is not playing fair with the public

Danish the though that these politicians may
now think that they can play both. ends from
the middle Danish the thought that these
fellows have been poor political sports. Danish

their own state.

they are hopeful of securing votes from both
the Republicans and from the others who will
go along from the Republican ticket to support

These men should receive. no consideration
from either side. John, Hal and Sol undoubted-
ly are clever politicians, but men and women
who vote for them should insist that they have
political principles which will stand the gait
and not be put on at Cleveland only to be dis
carded at Madison and Racine.
It may be that it is impossible to demand
that these men get on a ticket which will fit
their political beliefs but the people should not
permit them to continue to play both ends from
the middle.

POOR sPORTsMANSHIP.

A couple of weeks ago, when Wisconsin po-
litical leaders were occupying the limelight of
the only opposition at the Republican conven-
ton at Cleveland, it was reasonable to suspect
that these same leaders would ride through
blood up to the saddle bags to be present at
that progressive convention at Cleveland to
help endorse their patron saint for President
but the study of the list of delegates, alternates
hangers-on and funkeys over there on Friday
and Saturday indicated that Wisconsin leaders
were mostly conspicuous by their absence.
Blaine, Levitan, Cooper and score of lesser
lights evidently valued their own political hides
more than they did the principles which they
exposed so yocferously on the floor of the Re
publican convention

DANGER.

Marriages in which the age of the
woman at the time of the wedding IS
under 20, and the man five or more
years older, ARE seven times more apt
to terminate in divorce than other mar
riages. This is shown by investiga-
lions conducted, by Professor Hart of
Iowa State University.
Youth is .impulsive. Youth also is
inclined to scoff at the advice of old
err people. Where parents oppose mar
riages, it's usually for the good of their
child involved. Listen and reason,
young people. All they want is your
happiness assured.

WE Do NOT REFER WITH PRIDE.

Kenosha will not refer with pride to the fed
eral report on the mortality rate among chill
dren in Wisconsin cities. In fact, the report
brings something of a blush OF shame 70 Ne
nosha, for it shows that Kenosha has shipped
in the important work in caring for the babes
In 1922 the mortality rate among children UNI
der one year old in Kenosha was II to the thou
sand. In 1923 the rate jumped to 81 to a
thousand. The rate in Kenosha is far above the
average rate for the entire state, and this is a
matter for serious thought.
Kenosha has always been leader in fight
ing for the lives of it's babies, but during the
past year there must have been some serious
letting up in effort or some serious lack or
equipment to fight the battle of better babies
The city must face this new condition and be
prepared to make better fight for the loss,
and certainly high grade city like Kenosha
will not stand idly by and permit such loss
| of child life to come again this year. Mari
nette, not nearly as progressive city as ke-
nosha, in the same year reduced its mortality
rate from 85 to At. Stevens Point reduced it's
rate from 1913 to 70 and other cities IN the
state showed similar reduction. Many of the
larger cities like Kenosha showed an increase.
in the deaths of babies under the one year
mark
No city has any more important problem
than the preservation of the lives of it's chill
dren. If Kenosha has grown careless, the lines
should be drawn tight. The babies must have
the protection they deserve no matter what it
costs, and no matter how much greater must
he made the health organization
Undoubtedly much can be done by the Or
ganized bodies of Kenosha, but the people of
the city must help. There must be better con-
sideration of the dangers to the lives of the
babies; there must be more common sense
dealing with diseases of the children; quaran-
tine and isolation regulations must be more
generally enforced and doctors and parents
who failed to give their full aid to the enforce
ment of these regulations should be arrested
and fined and, for continued violations they
should be jailed.
Human sympathy and the motherhood of
the city must be called into action to remove
this condition in Kenosha. Women must take
more interest in motherhood in their own home
and their heart interest in motherhood must be
extended to include the education of other
mothers who have not had the chance to learn
the dangers of the little babies. Only three
cities in Wisconsin show higher mortality
rate among the babies than Kenosha. With the
proper solution of this problem Kenosha should
be at the other end of the rating of the cities.
This matter should be given the most serious
and immediate consideration by the guardians
of the public health and every possible effort
should be made to protect the babies.

DIVORCE.

In 1897 one American marriage in.
every II wound up in divorce. Now
the figure is one in every seven. Six
marriages are successful to every mar
rage that ends in divorce decree.
Broadly speaking, of course, for not
all Of the six marriages are happy I'M
ions. s
Marriage is, the most important de-
cision ever made by the average per-
son. 1t is more of a gamble for wo-
men than for men. 1t should never be
rushed into on sudden impulse. Love
is apt to sweep people off their feet.
Calm elaboration pays.

to c. R. Popenoe, program director of
Station WIZ, political orators will have
to condense. Thef speaker who can,
compress his message into Is or 20

lowing that will "tune I'M on him
