Two Colored Men Escape as Off
GERS Motor Cycle Skids on

Motor Cycle Policeman ]. L. Fon-
dahl of the Traffic Bureau was fired
upon twice while pursuing a heavily
laden automobile he suspected of
being operated by two colored boot
Ieggers and carrying d cargo of liquor
about 4 O'Clock this morning near
Adams Mill road. Neither shot took
effect.
Fondahl reported he skidded on the
slippery street, and was unable to
return the fire. The suspects escaped.
Fondahl was riding north on upper
Sixteenth street when his attention
was attracted to the car moving
toward the city. He started in pur-
suit down Sixteenth street, through
Columbia road and Adams Mill road.
At the intersection of Klingle road
he had almost overtaken the machine,
he said, when one of the men leaned
from the car and fired. The car had
disappeared after he had righted his
Skidding motor cycle.

Inflammatory Rheumatism
BY ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D.

rheumatism. 1t Is not associated
with immoral living.
1 am assuming, of course, that the
disease in question is actually in
flammatory or acute rheumatism,
or, to be more exact, rheumatic
fever. There is no installing this
ailment because it is associated
with fever. 1t is not inflammatory
rheumatism-in the. acute stage,
certainly-unless there is elevation
Of temperature.
The fever may not be high, per-
haps not over lei or 102. In ex-
ceptional cases it runs much higher.
1t is unusual to have rheumatic
fever without warning symptoms. a
good many times it is sequel OF
tonsjlitis. But the first hint of its
approach may be n general feeling
of illness which persists for several
DAYS. Or there may be soreness and
stiffness Of the joints and muscles.
When the disease has really ar
rived, one Of the large joints-the
knee, ankle, or wrist-will be in
volved in swelling and pain. Red
ness, swelling, heat and pain are the
classical symptoms Of inflammation,
and they exactly describe the con-
dition Of the joint which is attack
ed.
Several joints may be inflamcd at
the same time. IN other cases one
Joint gets better and then another
takes on the painful symptoms.
The symptoms subsidc or disap-
pear in a couple Of weeks. That
ends the first spell. but it may not
be long before another attack ar
riyes.
Rheumatic fever is counted among
the infectious diseases. 1t is due to
specific cause and runs definite
course.
Just what is the cause has not
been definitely decided, but it is
generally believed the injecting
agent enters the body through the
tonsiI. This is why the disease may
follow tonsilitis.
Rest in bed, with perfect quiet, is
essential 10 the comfort Of the pa
tent and to his welfare. There is
always danger of heart compiler
ton, so quiet is important. Since
the involvement Of this organ is the
most serious feature Of the attack,
the importance of this precaution
must not be overlooked. This is
particularly true il child is the
victim.
The involved joint should be made
secure by a splint and bandage.
Perfect quiet of the joint will pre-
vent pain.

By DIR. FRANK CRANE

One advancement of civilization
is that it has placed scientific in
formation at the bottom of our ac-
tons instead of superstition.
In former days people used to
thrust their hands into spunk
water at midnight in a stump and
think it cured the warts.
Or plant potatoes in the dark Of
the moon in order to insure a large
crop. Things planted in the light
Of the moon were supposed to be
fructiferous above the ground.
DR.. Copeland recently said that
many people still believe that onions
prevent smallpox, amber beads pre-
vent goitre and scarlet fever, and
shaving the upper lip weakens the
eyes. Also that salt pork applied
to wound will ward off lockjaw.
He mentioned the fact that DR..
Fronczak says these superstitions
are dangerous. DIR. Copeland sug-
gests the word vicious instead.
1t is much better to lean upon
fact than upon fancies in regard to
ones health.
We are all trammeled by super
stitions, such as sitting down the
thirteenth at table, walking I'M
der ladder, or dreaming Of snakes,

undermining Heaven

N R. MIRIAM VAN WATERS Los Angeles juvenile
court referee, believes that the conventional
conception of heaven doesn't appeal to modern
youth. One nfers from report of her speech during
welfare conference at New York. recently, that she is in
favor of substituting the saxophone for the harp.
Her suggestion is not irreverent for there is
thory for the belief that in the Hereafter the harp will
be played to the exclusion of the axophone the cornet
the bass viol, the clarinet or the mouth organ.
The picture of gel playing saxophone would
not conform to accepted standards of serious art and
would suggest incongruty comparable with that Of
fered by spectacle of Governor Ferguson lighting
cigar or Chief Justice William Howard Taft playing
the piccolu.
We suggest that if any attempt is made to modern
ize heaven that be made of the violin rather than
of the saxophone. No vivid imagination required for
to picture as an angel demure maid with violin
tucked under her chin.

Agricultural Asset

~ HE climate of San Antonio and South and South
west Texas has real economic value, especially
to agriculture. This fact demonstrated in a
striking manner last week when a cold wave sweeping
the entire interior of the country left this section
unchanged by frost or freezing While the thermom-
eter lowered for time in San Antonio only few de-
grees above freezing there wide margin of safety

to feel the faintest touch of apprehension.
In the Middle West it was really cold. In Ne
braska, for instance thermometer reading of IL de-
grees below zero (43 degrees below freezing) were
recorded Minus temperatures reported at many
points. In places in Montana the snowfall in
excess of 16 inches within 40 hours.
Potato growers in the Middle West suffered heavy
losses In Colorado the loss is estimated to be about
half million dollars. Agriculture in the North must ex
pect of these losses. Untimely cold

1t is rare to find a man whose
mind is free from supertitions.
Superstitions are mere dirt in
the mind. Unless they have some
foundation to rest upon in the way
Of facts they do more harm than
good.
Typhoid, cholera, yellow fever
malaria are wiped out by proper
sanitation. The right food and
drink and the proper care of ones
body are the best remedies against
disease. They beat all the rabbits
feet and hoodoo signs in exist
ence.
The ignorant mind is not empty,
but is full Of facts that are not
so. One advantage of education is
to substitute for these those facts
which rest upon the truth.
1t is a constant endeavor Of the
scientific mind to ascertain what
is truth and to build theories upon
truth and not upon fiction.
The best mode of preventing dis
ease is to live properly.
The best doctors agree that the
force inside Of us, or the health
force, is the best remedy for most
sickness, and their pills and boluses
merely assist nature.
