 Bodily Harmony
 The lesson We can draw from these facts is that in dicestiug. as SimiIating and rearrangiuG the in- gradients of our diet, the body works with a precise and admirable har- mony in which all the organs and cells interplay: that good nature. es- peciaIly at meal time and just pre- ceding it. or, better than good nature. cheerful, courageous poiso, gives digestion and assimilation boost and allows the inner harmony Of the system to go on pleasantly and efficiently.
 On the contrary, starting the day or the meal with cross. fretfuI. angry feelings tends to check digestion in the ordinary individual and to throw a greater stress on the inner har- mony than is necessary for our GUS tomary vacations.
 Strong emotions Of fear. anger or peevishness at meal time, will retard digestion and increase the tendency to sluggish elimination and the pro- duction of poisonous substances. Chemical states and emotions are linked together. Let us maintain them at their best. for our pleasure, for the pleasure of our friends and for the greater joy Of living all round.

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. HUGH $. CUMMING surgeon General United States

 The action of emotion seems to be largely through certain glands known as ductless glands, or better, glands of internal secretion.
 The glands of internal secretion are the thyroid and parathyroids in the front of the neck. certain parts of the pancreas from which nsulin was recently obtained, the pituitary gland at the base Of the brain. the adrenals above the kidney and parts of certain other important organs.
 Possibly many other organs and tissues are involved, but be this as it may. the fact remains that the organs of internal secretion play a large part in rearranging and regu- lating the chemical changes in the body.
 The story of the so-called ductless glands and their relation to our ac- tivities, personalities, etc, is an in- tercstng one but is in the main aside from our discussion tonight.
 Upon the activity of one Set of these glands, however. we must dwell since great deal Of work has been done 10 show that they are active in our defense and are active in emotional states. These glands are the adrcnals.
 Adrcnalin
 Each adrenal gland is composed of an external portion and a central portion. From the central portion can be extracted a chemical com pound called adrenalin. Adrenalin, by the way, has been made by the chemist and is used in surgery to stop bleeding If adrenalin Is in- jectcd into the blood it will cause the pupils of the eyes to dilate, hairs to stand erect, blood vessels to be frightened, the activities of the ali mcntary canal to be stopped and sugar 10 be liberated by the liver.
 A number of investigators have shown that the secretion of adre- nain by the adrenal glands is in- creased in great emotion, that pain cXcitcs the glands in question 10 pour into the blood stream an in creased amount of adrenalin and that fear and rage do the same thing.
