Your Health How To Keep It. Causes of Illness

Teia, the Health Magazine
 Throughout the world hygienists and architects are beginning to pay more attention to the relationship of housing to health.
 Such obvious errors as are asso- ciated with dampness, bad light and bad ventilation are apparent to everyone. Few people realize, however, the dangers associated with overcrowding.
 Outside Lighting
 There are districts ill many cities in which homes are built one against the other because of the high price of property. Health officers in general are convinced that frontage should be at least B feet 10 permit a certain amount of lawn and gardens, as we'll as outside lighting.
 Where there is neither water supply nor sewers. outside accom- nodations are necessary, but f "'e 'r inga ria:,'v unsafe un- less continuously inspected and .., ..y l for.
 Cruwtiing Children
 The kitChenet apartments now constructed in large cities may be suitable for newlyweds, but are d menace to children. In most in- stances they are badly lighted and v'~'''"'nd and for a child actually uninha bitable.
 .,..4e countries, notably Great Britain and Germany. have passed legislation governing the type of house to be provided for rural N orters. These regulations de- lnann the provision of sufficient garden ground, proper attention to drains. and careful study of lighting heating and ventilation.

No matter what particular prob lem Is yours in reducing your body, you must watch your neck and face.
 It is well 10 remember just what dieting does. While you are rot eating fattening food the body draws on the fat you stored away when you were overeating. This fat is needed for metabolism which is the technical name for the process of rebuilding. When your excess fat has been absorbed, you cannot help but be 1.-the and Timber again.
 But remember the flabby skin must be re-absorbed also. It had to stretch to accommodate your heavy intake of food, and now i, must shrink so as to fit your slim mer frame. This is accomplished by vigorous exercise. You must also exercise your neck and chin so that the same thing may occur thet. So let me outline a few neck exercises that no reducing "OIlldn EuOulu utSlStl.
 Lie crosswlse on the bed so that your shoulders are supported by the edge of the mattress. but your head is over the edge. Then drop your head back until 1t will go no farther. Then bring it up and for ward until your chin rests on your throat. If you prefer, you can do this sitting up in a chair, dropping your head as far back and then as far forward as you can. Keep the throat muscles tense and feel good strong pull on the muscles of your throat. Do this 20 times slowly.
 In this same position with your head hanging over the edge of the bed, open your mouth as wide as you can. and go through the mo- tions of violent chewing. When you feel the stretch and pull on the muscles of your chin you will realize that you can wear down double chin in this way.
 Then sitting comfortably with your back straight and your shoul- ders easy, bend the head as far as you can to the left, and 'hen to the right. This is excellent for the contour of the throat and will help also to keep the flesh firm on the neck and chest.
 Here is another:
 Lie flat on the floor with the face down and the hands at the sides. Then raise the head, chest and legs from the floor. lowing the body backward until only the ribs and abdomen are resting or the floor. Then press the head back on the spine as far as it will go. Relax, and repeat 10 times.
 Any woman who has had her face lifted should never attempt massage at home, but all other women can increase their circula- ton and help their facial contours while dieting by light facial massage.
 Your dieting and exercises should improve your complexion. as well as your figure. By elim- mating starches and fats and add ing fruits and raw vegetables. you should find that blemishes of all sorts have disappeared.
 And remember this! Your fat will come back if you do not eat scientifically and exercise regular ly. This is the price all fat people must pay.
 It is better to lose a pound a week for 52 weeks and keep it off than 1t is to lose 40 or 50 pounds put it all back on as quickly.
 Good luck!

 Peter Rabbit was eager to know more about his tropical cousin who lives away down in the Sunny South land called Panama, which is visit ed every fall by Scrapper the King bird on his way to lands even far ther south. Peter hadn't known that he had cousin down there until Scrapper mentioned it. Then Peter was full of questions, as he always is.
 Are you quite sure about that tail?" Peter asked.
 What tail?" replied Scrapper, pretending that he didn't know.
 Why, the tail Of that cousin or nine way down there. You said it wasn't white and that it was short or than mine" said Peter. Are you sure about it?"
 Quite sure about it,' replied Dcrapper.
 Then" said Peter, "the baby rab- bits cannot follow their mothers Gail, as my babies can. I think I prefer q white tail"
 But" pointed out Scrapper, swhen they run they don't show a White tail 10 their enemies as you do. Not having a white tail that cousin Of yours can disappear more quickly than you can.'

DESTROYING THE WEALTH WE
CREATE.

1.-THE rate at which we create wealth,
and then convert it into a colossal
heap of ashes is appalling" said 1.
G. Hoagland, fire prevention en-
gineer of New York recently. During
the past two years the actual property
loss in fires was more than $1,000, OOO,-
600. an amount that would finance
employment of 100000 men at 81 an
hour for one year. And also the hu-
man casualties were heavy.
During the past forty years the 10
tai property loss was $lO,OOO,OOO,ooo'
If the rate of burning during the past
two wears continues, the total Tor the
next forty years will be s2O'ooo'ooo'-
600.
It must be admitted that In the
matter of fire we are the most care
less of nations. Our waste LOT one
wear could very POSSIBLY bankrupt less
PROSPEROUS countries. And the very
fact of our prosperity is nos justitica-
ton for our contenancing destruction.
We must do more than merely re-
gret fire waste We must give every
effort toward outlawing 1t, and pro-
yiding ways to prevent it.

FARMERS AND DEMOCRATIC
TARIFFS.

While the stand of the Democratic
convention on tariff protection was a
cause for seven day comment and
wonder among the newspapers and
magazines as to what produced
the change of heart, study OF past
presidential campaigns shows that
both Cleveland and Wilson made pro-
misses to refrain from harmful tariff
tinkering. And both acted contrary
to what the country understood the
promises to mean Governor Smith in
his acceptance speech warns that Re
publicans will attempt to misinter-
pref his tariff stand, but at the same
time he praises the Underwood tariff
act of 1912 as his idea of correct tariff
legislation. And it is important
therefore, to note how the Northwest

the votes are cast in November.

Americas greatest administrator In
human welfare; because he believes
that the highest conservation is not
the conservation OF forests and rivers
and minerals, but the conservation OF
humanity; because his sympathy
knows no creed, no race, no color. Be-
cause his genius is for all-he fed the
hungry children of the world.
1 am for Hoover because, both
personally and officially, he distin-
cuisines liberty from license; because
he knows that freedom can only sur
vive under law, and because his whole
life confirms the faith of those who
look to his administration not only
for the enforcement of the Eighteenth
Amendment, but for the increasing
demonstration of the spirit Of the
Constitution in the hearty practice OF
the people.
I am for Hoover because, himself
a master of national and international
economics, he places 1.-The moral and
spiritual first; because he asks Shall
the world have peace?" Shall we
move steadily toward the ideal II
equal opportunity for all our people?'
Shall there be secured that obedience

He stated that there are over TO-

invested in agriculture, more than
twice the investment in any other

HOOVER AND PRICE OF WHEAT.

The Food Control Act was passed by
Congress and became law on August
10, 1917. 1t authorized the President
to fix a guaranteed price for wheat,
hut stipulated that the crop grown in
1915 should have a minimum price OF
So 90 per bushel Il did not provide for
the 1917 crop, when was Their being
harvested.
To provide for the 1917 crop, Mr..
Hoover suggested to President Wilson
That he the latter appoint an indie
pendent committee to determine fail
price for wheat. The Allied buyers in
the United States had consolidated
their buying into one hand, and had
intimated that they intended to pay
1.5O per bushel for wheat at Chicago.
In his letter to President Wilson, Mr..
Hoover wrote: I'm order to do justice
to the producers, who have shown
great patriotism in a special effort to
increase production, it is absolutely
vital that we shall protect the farmer
from a slump in price this year."
President Wilson appointed a COM
mittee of twelve, of whom six repre-
sented the farmers. This committee
fixed the basic price of wheat at 1920
per bushel In his proclamation an
nouncing this decision, President VIII
son said: "Mr. Hoover. at his ex-
press wish, has taken no part in the
deliberations of the Committee on
whose recommendation determine the
Governments fair price, nor has he
in any way intimated an opinion re-
garding that price"
Later, to offset an increase in freight
rates, Mr.. Hoover voluntarily increas-
ed the fixed price to $226 per bushel.

Il AM FOR HOOVER"
CBy Daniel A. Poling)

Moral and patriotic considerations
for milliors of citizens, lift this cam
paign out of party politics.
I am for Hoover.
I am for Hover, because humbly
born, with an orphans heritage OF
hardship, he has won his way to hgh
station. His career proves that demo-
cracy is still an open door, and that
character plus application equals
achievement. His life VlndlcateS
America.
I am for Hoover because he has
toiled with his hands. Because ne
has followed the pillow. He knows that
there is an agricultural problem, and
behind him is an unbroken record OF
success in answering hard questions.
I am for Hoover because he is an
engineer He has run his line across
continents. He has surveyed the world.
He will bring trained intelligence and
unsurpassed experience to the vast
issues of reclamation and conserVa-
ton. He will take the development OF
inland waterways and super power,
and the administration Of flood con-
troll out of the field of partisan poll
tics. He will make these the work
of specialists and statemen, and not
the playthings of politicians.
I am for Hoover because he is pre-
eminently American; because with
America first in his heart he has, be-
yond all others, made America first in
service to mankind, and because he is
ready now, as no other man among
us, to direct the nation at home and
to lead her in world affairs.
I am for Hoover because in making
his political career he has made no
entangling alliances; because he has
established efficiency as the first test
for political preferment, and because
his election to the presidency of the
United States will mean a new birth
