HOW TO KEEP
WELL
DR.. Frederick r. Green,
Editor of Health"
OVERCOMING MISFOR-
TUNE

MISFORTUNE, which brushes some,
ANA stimulates others TO greater eff
fort. Shakespeare makes Cassius. say,
"The fault, dear Brutus, is not with
our stars, but with ourselves"
The newspapers recently told of a
tragic occurrence in one of our great
cities. A prosperous baker, who had
invested his savings in city real estate,
died several years ago, leaving three
children, all grown. The daughter was
normal, but the two sons had been
blind since early childhood The
daughter carried on the business and
took care of her two blind brothers.
The three lived much to themselves,
the men never going out of the house
without the sister to guide them.
Recently, the neighbors noticed that
the house was closed and apparently
deserted. After waiting a week, the
police broke in to find the sister dead
on the floor, apparently from heart
disease, and the two brothers dead
from starvation. With money in the
bank and valuable real estate In their
possession, they died for lack of food
because they were totally dependent
on their sister and had never learned
to care for themselves.
The same papers contained an ac-
count of young man of twenty-four.
also blind from childhood, who had
passed the state bar examination and
graduated from law school with high
honors.
One man conquered his affliction.
The other men were conquered by it.
Blind men have won success and
reputation In many lines. Prescott,
the historian, was blind during the
greater part of his life. Senator Gore
of Oklahoma has been blind for years.
One of the leading physicians. of
Chicago lost his eyesight In boy
hood, yet he went through college
and medical school, graduated with
honors, and is today an authority on
heart disease, recognized as such all
over the country. These men did not
succeed because they were blind, but
In spite of it.
One man loses his sight and be-
comes a beggar. Another meets the
same misfortune, overcomes it, and
becomes a successful man.
A boy born without arms, who
learned to write with his toes, recent
ly took a prize as penman. A girl
born without arms learned to write,
sew, comb her hair, and dress herself
with her toes She graduated this
year from Vassar.
Are you handicapped in any way7
Don't give up to misfortune. Learn
to overcome it. Others have done
it and so can you.

Damage Memorial Steps;
Forced to Pay Neat Sum

Disregard of the fine marble steps
that adorn the entrance to the Legion
Memorial building at Shamokin, Pa,
recently cost Vincent Lopez, famous
leader of a dance orchestra that ap-
peared in the Legion gymnasium last
May, neat sum in damages. In re-

dragged their trunks down the marble
stairs to the street, infiicting a num-
Der of dents in the ornamental stair

Gently and a committee of the Amer
lean Legion and "old John Law"

first presented an indignant mood
when the claim of damages was made,
but finally settled in full when con-
fronted with a warrant and the pros
poets of the city bastile.

SAVE THE BABY'S NECK

CTAMPING out tuberculosis is saw
~ ing our babies necks.
tuberculosis may affect any part of
the body. In former years, tubercu-
losis of the lungs was called consump-
ton, because the lung tissue was con-
sumed or destroyed, and great cavi-
ties formed in these organs.
tuberculosis of the skin was called
lupus, or wolf, because the skin be-
came reddish brown, like a VOLTS
coat.
tuberculosis of the glands was
called scrofula. In England, it was
for centuries called Kings Evil, be-
cause it was believed that it could be
cured by the touch of the king. So
thousands of scrofulous children were
brought to the king for cure.
Some of these children recovered or
improved, because they were carried
by their parents for days or even
weeks from their homes all over Eng
land to London and so got fresh air
and sunlight, which they never would
have had otherwise.
But it wasn't the kings touch that
cured them. King william of Orange,
who, with his wife Mary, ruled Eng
land from 1858 to 1902, was the last
English king who touched for the dis
ease and evidently he had little faith
in his ability to cure To one man
whom he touched he said, God give
-
After Koch discovered the germ of
tuberculosis in 1882, it was found that
scrofula in the glands, lupus in the
skin, and consumption in the lungs
were all different forms of the same
disease For twenty years more, sur
geons treated scrofula by removing the
diseased, broken-down glands and
draining the assesses which had
formed. This left ugly scars.
Tubercular glands in the neck were
common in all hospitals, dispensaries
and surgical clinics. Then it was
found that this condition was caused
by milk from tubercular cows This
danger could be removed by pasteur-
izing the milk.
Today, 95 per cent of the milk used
in large cities is pasteurized AS soon
as all the milk for our large cities
was pasteurized, cases of gland tuber-
culosis began to decrease.
Then our national and state agricul-
tural departments started systemat-
ic fight against tuberculosis in cattle
and the disease decreased still more.
so now 1t is comparatively rare.
This is not only good thing for
the cattle, but it is also better thing
for our babies.
No tubercular cows, no tubercuiar
milk. No raw milk, no gland tuber-
culosis In babies.

Legend of Unicorn

Medieval conception of the unicorn
as possessing great strength and
ferceness may have been partly due
to the fact that in certain passages
of the Old Testament, the word Rem
TRANSLATED in the authorized version,
unicorn), refers to a two-horned an
imal, savage and quarrelsome, sub
dued to gentleness only at the side
of a virgin. The idea of purity is
included in the significance of the Uni
corn reed in many coats of arms.
