Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DR. HUGH s. CUMMING Surgeon General, United States
 pubic Health Service

Public Health Service
 Coming to a consideration of the treatment of unsafe streams. one is struck by the obyiousness, the eX- pensivc ress and also the necessity of the remedies.
 When q ..ream is polluted by sewage, either a disposal plant must be constructed or the sewage outlet established at a point to assure in offensive elimination Of the waste or. if the dilution is sufficient measures for purification of the water used may be substituted.
 When pollution is caused by an industrial waste and 1t is desired to prevent contamination, two courses are open: either the discharge of the material must bc discontinued entirely. or an efficient disposal plant utilized.
 In the latter instance. the waste must he so modified in character as Ito render 1t less obnoxious and the water safe or easily capable of be- ing made so.
 Demands Community Action
 Owing 10 the importance of the stream pollution problem from the standpoint of health and welfare, every citizen has an interest at stake.
 Primarily the matter demands full understanding and cooperation ho- tween public health officials muni- cipalities and industries At best inc problem of preventing stream pollu- ton is a complex one demanding the best possible individual and community thought
 Tt is particularly essential that the citizen have a conception of he fac tors involved in the prevention of stream pollution because his inter ests are intimately concerned.
 Spending
 With such an understanding in- telligcnt public officials can be chosen and funds wisely expended in combating the menace.
 Moreover. when municipalities land industrial enterprises polluting water courses acknowledge their responsibility 10 the general public polluted streams will become less frequent. Subsequently, deleterious conditions directly traccahle 10 stream pollution will be corrected and the public health corresponding lv safeguarded.

-Olu MOLuGI Nature,
 The punishment may not come from the one who was disobeycd, but 1t is bound to come from some source or other. Disobediencc never pays, never has paid and never will pay. Sooner or later trouble is go- ing to follow. Just take the case of Little Mister Know-It-All, the will tul little son Of Jerry Muskrat.
 Come back here this minutc," squeaked Mother Muskrat 10 Little Mister know-It-AIl who was swim ming out in the middle of the Smil- ing Fool, where he had no business to be. Little Mister Know-It-Al pre- tended that he didn't hear. He was headed across for the other bank and he kept right on going. He didn't pay any attention whatever 10 his mothers command. Again she squeaked sharply;
 Come back here this minutc," she ordered, "YoulI get into trouble over therc, It's daugcrous.'
 Little Mister Know-It-All could see no danger so he made mp his mind there wasn't any danger. "Sho's saving that just 10 scare me-" said he 10 himself, and lo swan as fas as he could. ''Shc cant fool mr. l suppose she'd keep me right under her tail all the time if she could. Yes, sir. I suppose that is just what she would do. I'll just pretend I didn't hear her."
 So little Mister Enow-Tt-Al pre- tended that ho djut hear her and kept right on. Mother Muakrat look ed after him anNious'y. Then she commanded fhc six other little Muskrats 10 hide in the bulrushcs and not 10 show their noses outside until sha returned. She waited just long enough 10 sac that they obey cd her and the started after Little Mister KnOw-Tt-Ah,

The deepest. the strangest, the last
And into the school of the angels
With the answer forever has passed
God knew all about it, how noble.
How gentle she was and how brave:
How bright her possible future
Yet put her to sleep in the grave
God knew all about those who love her.
How bitter the trial must be-
And right through II all God is loving.

his most famous thriller being a
stunt performed over a bed Of bayo.
nets with points turned upward.
One evening, just before the time
for him togo on, he had a quarrel
with his wife. During his act, be.
cause of over-strung nerves, he
missed his jump and landed on the
bayonets. He was so badly mutt
lated that he was relegated to the
role of a clown upon recovery.
Following in the footsteps of his
father, young Piccardi also became
a trapeZe performer. Recently he
and his partner, Vamacksa. organ
lied a circus Of their own in Buda-
pest. Both fell in love with the same
girl, who was also attached to the
circus. They fought a duel. Pic
cardi won the duel, and with it the
girl.
Against the advice of his father,
who warned him that any woman
will ruin an acrobat, young Piccardi
married her. On the thirtieth an
niversary Of his fathers accident he
found her in compromising circum-
stances with his partner. A quarrel
ensued. Shortly thereafter, Picard.
due to his over-excited state, fell
from his trapeze. A clowns life will
probably be his fate if he survives
his injuries.
