Dodging DTabetes

T~HE discovery of insuiin is q great
n advance in the treatment of dB
abetes. But insulin does not i'm amy
way prevent this disease: 1t only en-
ables the doctor to- control 1t and to-
keep the diabetic alive a few years.
No one knows why; i'm some persons,
diabetes, occurs. But we do know
that 1t is increasing. Doctor Josiin.
one of the, Best-knowm authorities on
this disease. says there are probably
more than hEif a. million persons i'm
this country suffering. from this dis
ease.
We do know that it iS more common
among the welltto-do than among those
in moderate circumstances. 1t is more
common among those who head sed-
entary lives than among those who do
hard physical work. and, most impor-
tant of ALL, il is much more common
among the fat than the Thin.
During middle life, a fat person is
40 times as apt to have diabetes as al
person of normal on slightly under
normal weight.
So diabetes seems, to, be disease
of the prosperous. Those who over
eat and under-exereise are preferred
candidates for this disease
After you once get it, there is mo-
cure. You can control It by proper
living but you cam never get entirely
we'll again. You've got to pay the
price, the rest of your life, of eating
too, much, especially too much sugar
and starch, and working too little.
After you get ii. the first thing the
doctor will do will be to cut out sugar
and starch and to- reduce your weight.
Knowing this, isn't it sensible to do
these things yourself, before y0m are
sick, rather than to wait and do the
same things after 1t is too latee
The most common defect Of middle
age is overweight. Fat is NOT only
burden but danger. Cut down on
candy. pie, pudding and other sweets.
Eat less white bread and cereals and
more fresh fruit and vegetables. Drink
more milk and fewer ice cream sOdas.
If your work doesn't give you enough
exercise, give your muscles something
to do that will keep them active. Drink
plenty of pure water and breathe plen-
ty of fresh air.
Good health is easy, If you will
live simply. 1t costs less than the
disease and is great deal more COM
Portable.

A PROFESSOR ON TAXES.

One at all interested in taxation
problems should find the opinions OF
those who have seriously studied
them with a discriminating mind
worthy Of consideration.
Prof. Edwin r A. Seligman, writ
ing for The North American Review
has this to say about takes on the
Rich Burden the Poor"
"There is, however, one point IN
which the adversaries OF surtax re-
duction also make mistake. WINE
It is true that an income tax cannot
be shifted, in the shape OF higher
prices. 1t Is false to maintain that
only the immediate taxpayer Is az
fected by the tax. The effects OF a
tax must be distinguished from the
shifting OF a tax. There Is no more
fatcful mistake than to thnk tnat
the excessive taxation OF the rich
necessarily leaves unaffected the WEI
fare of the poor. The entire indus-
trial process depends for it's progress
,,pon the accumulation of capital and
the ploughing back into the business
of a reasonable amount Of earnings
that are not distributed to the stock
holders of the corporation or spent
by the individual owner. The pro-
eress of civilization and the growth
of wealth depend upon the spirit OF
enterprise and the readiness or the
forceful and the able to take risks.
Anything which seriously checks this
spirit of hopefulness or hampers the
incentive to save has very defnlte
reaction on the whole body economic.
With the accumulation Of capital and
the activity Of business enterprise,
there are set in motion all those
forces of modern life which render
possible the increase of wages, the
lowering of interest, and the reduc-
ton of commodity prices.
The real defense of modern CAPT.
talism Is that on the whole 1t means
the tendency toward cheap goods ana
dear men--the multiplication OF the
material conveniences Of life and the
progressive raising of the standard
of living Of the working population.
TO the extent that excessive surtaxes
check enterprise and lessen the ten
dency to accumulate capital, they ex-
ert a perceptible influence on the en-
tire community. For they serve to
prevent what would otherwise be a
rise Of wages and reduction OF In
terest. This Is indeed different from
the immediate shifting of the tax;
/: does not mean higher prices. but
1t serves to prevent lower prices Of
commodities and higher wages for
tho workman. A normal and mod
crate income tax is quite different
from a sales tax in that it will have
but a slight effect upon savings and
virtually no effect upon prices: but
an excessive income tax so far as
1t reaches business profits exerts
deleterious influence upon the COM
munity as whole. In this sense
1t Is true that excessive surtaxes
form n burden not alone on the rich
who pay but on the poor who are
mistaken In the assumption that they
do not pay.
