FOOLISH TO WORRY
ABOUT ONES HEART

Persons who are the surest they
have weak hearts are in many cases
laboring under a deIusion, while the
ones who least suspect it are those
whose hearts need treatment.
This is the opinion of DR.. William
Duncan Reid, Boston heart specialist,
who tells in Hygeia why heart disease
heads the list in the mortality statis-
tics.
MANY persons come to the doctor
with some such list of symptoms as
these rapid heart action with pain
around the heart, shortness of breath,
dizziness, opposition, blue-skinned
hands. That, sounds like bona fide
sick heart, doesn't it? Well, it isn't.
The doctors call it effort syndrome,
which means that due to some disturb
ing factor a set of symptoms appear
Stimulating cardiac disease although no
impairment of the heart has occurred .
The only way to know if your heart
is in good condition is to have pc
riodic examination by your doctor and
not worry, says Doctor Reid.

ConUerse With Insects
Only Matter Of Time

]. B. S. Haldane, the British bio
chemist, says in the Forum that it's
only a question of time before man
will be talking with bees and ants. The
investigations of Wheeler Of Harvard
have made it very probable that the
behavior of social insects such as ants,
instead of being based on compli-
Gated series of special instincts, rests
largely on an economic foundation not
so very unlike our own. The ant that
brings back bug to the nest gets paid
for it by a sweet juice secreted by
those that stayed at home. On the
other hand, German entomologist at
Kiel has been tackling tie problem of
how much one bee can tell another and
how it does it. Tomorrow 1t looks as

Black Bear Best of All

The black bear is the best-known
member of his family in western Can
ada. Three Of his greatuncles live on
this continent. The polar has his
home in the Far North, the grizzly
ranges in the Rocky mountains and
the kadiak, that giant among wild ami
mails, is to be found away far up on
the Pacific coast. They are all much
larger than and not nearly so jovial
and harmless as their dusky nephew
the black bear, Dan MCGOWAN writes
in Agricultural and Industrial Progress.

Many famous men have had dread
Of some particular number, and in
numerous instances this has actually
played a remarkable part in their
lives. Wagner was logged by 13.
SO was Rossini. His antipathy to the
odd number was mainly owing to the
fact that he composed the Barber of
Seville" which was Kissed on its pro-
duction in 1S16-in thirteen days The
date of his death was November IL,
1868.
