n ANY adults will confess that the greater part of
INI their book reading was done when they were
~ children. There is too busy
to find time to read good books but there many who
think they have not the time. The result is that the
only knowledge of literature possessed by many adults
is that acquired during youth.
Most children naturally avid and omnivorous
readers They will read whatever they can lay their
hands upon 1t is not to be wondered at that there
many of literary indigestion developing in later
years into chronic dyspepsia.
Young Abraham Lincoln, to cite of many
notable cases. would walk so miles to borrow
book. His problem to find books. The problem of
the child of today in San Antonio is to have the right
books found for him.
Our idea of a good book for children has undergone
radical change within the last few years Parents
rule forbade the reading of the Wild West the Nick
Carter and the beautiful cloak model types of Stories
when they exercised any censorship at ALL and offered
in their stead when they offered anything unsavory
connection of Sunday school stories, verbose dissera
tons and the heaviest of expurgated classics with per-
haps spicy sprinkng of Alger, Henty or Alcott. The
smaller children of necessity confined to Mother
Goose and alphabet books.
Fortunately there has been developed juvenile
bbliotheca offering extensive selections from standard
literature and from modern authors of merit In San
Antonio there public library and there
book stores from which selections may be made to
satisfy the right of the child to enjoy good literature
Every child should have at least good book for
Christmas.

Former Commissioner Of Health. New York City.

at the stomach and vomiting are
other symptoms.
These attacks pass off, only to be
repeated every week or so, or even
several times a day. Moving the
head suddenly may bring on the at
tack.
There are many causes. Among
them is poisoning Of some sort.
This may be from one OF the con-
tagious diseases, or it may be from
a drug. Alcohol, tobacco, arsenic,
quinine and salicylate acid are
among such drugs.
Anything which disturbs the liv-
ing levels L have described will
cause the trouble. Bleeding into the
labyrinth or semi-circular canals,
the result of fall or blow, may pro-
duce this group Of symptoms. Tu-
mors Of the brain or serious brain
disease may cause it, because the
labyrinth is involved.
What can be done and what the
prospect of cure is will depend on
the cause Of the irritation. Many
cases make complete recovery.

A reader in Connecticut has
heard about "Menierc's disease" and
wants an article about it. i am
glad to present 1t.
How do you know where'you are
when you are in the dark and
whether you are standing upright or
not? Is there some sort Of a spirit
level in the body to indicate your
position in space and to assist you
in maintaining your balance?
There is exactly that sort Of a
mechanism in your head. 1t is
closely associated with the organ of
hearing and is considered a part
Of the internal ear.
Deeply situated in the bone back
of the ear are what wo call the
"semi-circular canals" three Of
them. If you will half close your
right hand and place its edge on
the palm Of the other hand, you
will see how the semi-circular canals
are placed. One corresponds in po-
sition to the flat palm Of the left
hand. The second lies in the plane
of the fingers and the third in the
plane Of the palm Of the right hand.
Suppose each Of these canals were
a spirit level, you can see that one
or another would always be 80
placed as to indicate your position
in space. That is the purpose they
serve in the protection Of your body.
j need not go into greater de-
tail, describing the special nerves
and other features Of this arrange
ment. A part Of the inner ear,
known as the Labyrinth" has its
place in this intricate plan, but /
have told you enough so you know
in n general way how to keep
straight and safe.
What We know as "Meniere's dis
ease" or "Menierc's syndrome," be-
gins with buzzing in the ears and
staggering in the gait. Dizziness
and a sensation as IL everything
were turning around, cause giddin-
ness and Keeling.
The eyeballs may jerk and twitch.

The story comes from Chicago of

When it discovered that its head

of teeth ended only with the hur-
ried arrival of the police. The cat
and the can were spirited away to
anonymous destination and the
short and simple annals Of the cats
life came to an end.
The moral, however, remains and
is equally applicable to men and
cats.
Nature had presented this cat,
even before its eyes were open, witt
something to warn it Of danger.
But in its desire for what at

the warning. The result was dis
astrous.

Now Is the Time to
Prove True Love
For Humanity

TAvE you made your investment in humanity?
n That question may be answered in the affrma-
tive by contributors to the Community Chest
There is no better proof of an individuals ngrained
love for humanity than his willingness to aid the poor
and needy through the medium of organization such
as the making its appeal this week. There is no
better test of the true spirit of charity.
None of us enjoys the sight of suffering. In the
actual presence of suffering need, all but the most
hard-hearted feel sympathetic response. This SYM
pathy this charity is not entirely unselfsh instinct
however highly commendable it may be- Sometimes we
avert eyes and endeavor to forget that which
have seen. Sometimes extend material and spiritual
aid.
The Community Chest quota would have been
raised the first day of the drive by there
could have been presented to all San Antonians living
panorama of the poverty-stricken and the disease
racked who lead obscure, miserable lives in the
and hooks of prosperous city.
San Antonans could not avert their eyes and forget
that spectacle of suffering humanity Merely vestige
of the true spirit of charity in the heart of the individual
would suffice to provoke generous response.
Community Chest solicitors have no whereby
they offer living spectacle of the poor and the
needy to San Antonians. Their appeals must of neces
sity be of abstract nature They must depend upon
the ngrained love of humanity rather than upon the
emotions that excited by the sight of suffering.
San Antonio's big heart should throb under full

Figures Of Speech
"Rialto."

The word "Rialto" has come to
mean, in common parlance, n hust-
ling, busting place of meeting and
activity. 1t is so called from the
famous Bridge of the Rialto, in
Venice, on which there is a double
row Of shops, separated by broad
footway. In New York City the
Rislto is the theatrical district, in
which the player folk congregate,
and the talk is all Of plays and
parts.
The Bridge of the Rialto in Ven

about 1890. 1t crosses the Grand
Canal, and connects the Rialto
Island with the Island AZ San
Marco, or st. Mark. There is also

The Cats Whiskers
By DIR. FRANK CRANE

catastrophe and the rest was the
short. swift and noisy falling &C.
ton.
A man like a feline is provided
with "cats' whishers'--with warn
ings. cages and alarms. They warn
him when he is in danger.
His conscience tells him when
his moral nature Is in peril.
Aches. pains, sleepiness and sick
ness sound the warning of physical
jeopardy.
Depressions and lapses are the
alarm bells of a mental break
down.
But neither the whiskers Of the
cat nor the "whiskers" inside OF
men will do more than warn OF
danger. They are not like auto
matte sprinkler systems that put
out a fire as well as give the alarm.
They only notify of danger.
The fire alarm does nothing to
combat the menace Of the flames
IL the fire department refuses to
respond. SO "cats' whiskers" mere
Iy sound a warning and the in
diyidual has to combat the trouble.
The men who live long and use
full lives as well as the felines that
prosper and wax powerful are the
ones that heed "cats' whiskers."

Of Doctor Kinsey."
That night, the General hospital am

clothes. including high silk hat, who
was Immediately groomed. staggered
into the station in dazed condition.
At first he was thought to be intoxi-
Gated, but at the hospital, shortly after
he regained consciousness, he suffered
paralytic stroke.
In his few moments of conscious
ness he told his nurse that his name
was doctor Kinsey." He mumbled
repeatedly about "going home." and
then lapsed into silence. The par
alytic stroke left him speechless as
well as helpless. He never even
seemed to regain his reason. Repeated
efforts to communicate with him failed.
