Health Hints
By DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal Of the American Medical Association and Of Hy-
 geia, the Health Magazine


 geia, the Health Magazine
 In an exceedingly valuable and up-to-date manual for the tubercu- lous called Rules for Recovery from Tuberculosis" Dr. Lawrason Brown considers the various aues- tions related to climate and fresh air.
 The fresh air treatment for tu- berculosis was developed in the last half of the nineteenth century. It is now being realized that the fresh air is taken not primarily for the lungs, but for its general effect on the whole body.
 Keeping Outdoors
 Doctor Brown is not convinced that sleeping outdoors materially hastens recovery. provided eight to 10 hours a day. preferably during the daylight. are spent in the open air and the night passed in a we'll ventilated room.
 On the other hand, when a per son works all day indoors. sleeping
  outdoors at night may be considered as necessity. A man outdoors gets 100 times more fresh air than he could get in the best ventilated room in any given period of time. During the summer, windows are kept open. fresh air is everywhere and patients with all sorts of dis eases do well. With the first breath of autumn, houses are closed, ex- cept for brief daily airings The patients do fairly we'll until about Christmas when confinement indoors begins to tell By the follow ing spring, patients with tuberculo- sis particularly begin to break down. Many Devices All sorts of window tents sleep ing chairs and similar apparatus have been devised 10 enable the per son who requires much fresh air to get it easily
 Because of the associated climatic conditions. the fresh air treatment, like any other. is best taken under the advlce of some one who has giv- en special study to the matter.

 "In reptiles, birds and mammals, just as in man." he says, the two mortality chargeable to them arc organ systems having the largest the respiratory and the alimentary systems, with the circulatory sys- tenn standing third. The other or gan systems, which have a low mor- tality chargeable to them in man, also are concerned in a low mortal ity in the reptiles, birds and man. mals.'

 "The proportionate mortality from diseases finding their seat in the alimentary tract and its associ- ated organs (concerned in the co(- bustion of food) is highest in the reptiles. lower in the birds, lower still in the mammals and finally lowest in man living under supe- for conditions of present-day civiliz- ation"

 You are mistaken" he said air lily. "A charming woman guest nev- CT could feel crowded or uncomfort- able or neglected with me on the job. I should devote my whole time to her. No. no. old dear. you'll have to think up some other excuse.
 His eyes were dancing and there was something very like a smirk at the corner of his lips. the sign that he was again salving his vanity with the idea that jealousy of Edith was prompting my reluctance to have her come to us at the time he had named.
 The sight of that tiny smirk sud denly iced my jealousy and changed my anger into a frigid determination to discomfit Dicky
 "Oh! I didn't understand" I said in my friendliest tones. T thought you had planned to be absent when the Brixtons came. But if you're going to be here. that makes all the difference in the world. I'll tele- phone her at once to save the sec ond week for us.'

SCIENCE UNC0VERS AN ANEM|A REMEDY
Copper Found to Be Better Than
 Iron Treatment

! Ann Arhor Mich. April 17 UP) -Dscovery that copper compounds, l when fed with iron. offer an effec- tive remedy for anemia in white | rates was reported here today be- ! fore the annual meeting of the American Society of Biological Chemists.
 The new significance of copper l investigations was described by Dr. F. B. Hart. head Of the department ! of agricultural chemistry at the University of Wisconsin As re- suit of this discovery he said, cop- per may come 10 be regarded as one of the indispensable requisites in the 1 field of nutrition, particularly as a safeguard in the upkeep of the i blood.
 The work represents continuation of four years of study with the iron content of milk and its relation to anemia. Doctors Hart. Harry Steen- book, C. A. Elvehjem and James Waddell. agricultural chemists, di. rected the investigation.
 This disease under study by the Wisconsin eNpcrimonters is similar 10 anemia of children. who have been fed exclusively on milk, in that both are caused by the breaking down of the hemoglobin in the blood stream. The experiments were initiated to find corrective for anemia.
 Iron of Little Value
 By keeping young rats on a whole. milk diet, the chemists caused the animals 10 develop a severe attack of anemla. in which the hemoglo- bin of 'he blood dropped to a low level and tho rats were near death. Because hemoglobin is rich in iron. if has long been assumed that addi- tons of iron 10 the diet would cor rect the ailment. but with rats, iron. itself. proved to be of little value.
 By burning 10 an ash dried liver. corn grain, or lettuce, and feeding the ash in milk, tho chemists pro- duced startling cures with the rats. When ash"d, the liver and lettuce possessed q blue hue typical of some copper compounds This prompted tho Investigators to use copper a. a supplement 10 iron in the whole milk rations. Equally quick results were secured in restoring the stricken rats 10 health.
 Liver extract. formulated at Har- yard university to replace liver in the diets Of patients affected with prrnlcious ancmia, also proved ef- trctivo in curing the rats. when it was fortified with iron compounds.
 Experiments to test the effective ness of copper in the correction of anemia in man will be started in q number Of hospitals.' Hart said. Although the treatment of ancmia
