Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FlSHBEIN Editor Journal Of the American Medical Association and of Hygeia,
 the Health Magazine

the Health Magazine The most recent bulletin issued by the National Tuberculosis asso- citation concerns the type of employ ment to be followed by people with tuberculosis, after they have re- covered from the disease, or while it is in an arrested state.
 When the person leaves the hos pital or the sanitarium he must adjust himself mentally and physi- ! cally to the changed conditions of life. In the sanitarium he has been able to rest most of the time, but once in the routine of daily life out side the walls of the institution, the dominant note of his existence is work. He has not been allowed to leave the sheltering walls of the in- stitution until his robustness, his color, and weight have convinced the authorities that he will be able to sustain the burdens of normal eXNtence.
 He will probably appear to all ordinary observers more healthy than most of the people around him who have never suffered with tuber- culoss. They will naturally expect much of him, and he will probably try to meet their expectations. This is a serious error. On the other hand, the patient may still fear his disease and be confirmed in habits of rest so that any type of work vii seem burdensome to him. This attitude of mind also requires re- adjustment.
 The patient who comes back to ordinary life after a long period in a sanitarium must have work that vii be sufficient to provide a living for himself and perhaps for a fam fly, but which will not bring about a physical breakdown due to excess of exertion. Whenever possible the patient should try to return to his old occupation, unless this has been such as to be directly associated with the attack of his disease. If his physical capacity is not up to what it was before his illness, the work may sometimes be modified to meet his newer capacities.
 Whenever a patient who has had long period in sanitarium re- turns to daily life, he should have opportunity for frequent medical consultation. This is necessary in order that the effects of the work on the patient may be regularly de- termined and his activities regu- lated in accordance with these measurements. It is a mistake to go along without control, for the disease is insidious and relapse may set in and gain central before the patient realizes his difficulty.

TROY LAUNDRY

Door. - Two Men Seen
About The Place Suspect
ed.

The safe In the office of the
Troy steam Laundry on Nortn
mann street was ToODed Thursday
nIgnt or Friday morning. Tne
burglars probably gained entrance
by means OF a key as none OF the
windows or doors mad been Drok-
en-.
The knob was first knocked orr
the safe and a charge OF nitro
glycerine placed in the comb1na-
tion chamber. A quantity Oh
laundry was then placed about the
safe 20 deaden tine sound OF the
explosion. -
The burglars secured about $500
in cash and about $400 in checks
according to Manager o. J. Smith,
in addition to this loss the safe
was ruined and quite quantity
of garments, sheets, ETC., blown
10 shreds by the force OF the ex-
piosion.
There is no clue to the identity
OF the criminals, who left no
marks to show where they got In
or out. In all probability they
used a skeleton key on the back
door.
Two suspicious characters were
noticed by Mrs. Drew passing and
repassing the laundry several
times Thursday soon after noon.
She had 4 good description OF
these men and Joe May, city
policeman, succeeded In locating
them Friday evening.
Neither checks nor money were
found on the suspects and after
talking with them the officer ts
convinced that they had nothing
TO do with the job, although they
admit being the same men who
walked to and fro in front of the
laundry Thursday noon.
The suspects were lodged In the
city jail last night and are being
held on a vagrancy charge.
Mr.. Smith has stopped payment
on the stolen checks and the sum
Jf $500 will approximate the ulti-
mate money loss.
