Judged by its results as a whole. the
bishop declared. Prohibition is a good

Evils Often Exaggerated.
"Some great and serious evils have
resulted from this law" he continued
but these evils are often exaggerated
by those who oppose the law. and most
of these evils are due not to the law it.

1t. What is now needed is not abandon

facts relating to it.
The assertions that this law cannot
be enforced come, most of them, from
those who do not wish the law to be
enforced. who have never wanted it en-
forced and who admit they hope to see
1t repealed on the ground that it cannot

Bishop Manning said he supported

signs of "a change of feeling" in circles
of society where opposition has been
most pronounced.

Bishop Manning said he doubted
whether the American people would

act until it is proposed by those who

"At present" he said. "our people
feel. and not without reason, that the
proposals for modification usually mean,

He expressed belief that the Ameri-

prohibition fair trial and that in the
light of that trial there will be few
who will wish to see the eighteenth

Your Health How To Keep It. Causes of Illness

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBElN Editor Journal Of the American i Medical Association and of Hygeia, 1 the Health Magazine. The normal baby when born weighs about seven pounds. Some babies when born, even after full filling the usual term before birth, weigh as little as three or four pounds. These babies are not pre- mature but immature.
 A baby weighing less than five and a half pounds and less than 20 inches in length at birth Is an immature baby Such babies seem to have disproportionately large heads.
 It is an interesting observation that following great war more boys are born than girls. This was true ill Germany. Austria and Hungary after the last war.
 Premature Births
 Dr. Aaron Capper found more girls than boys among immature infants. which constitute 10 per cent of all births. Its is an interesting fact that 10 per cent Of all births are premature, that Is before the expected time. From one fifth to one-third Of the immature infants are twins
 In Germany there is one twin birth for every 17: in the United States, II per cent Of births are twins. In the United States, in 1923, there was one set of triplets for every 1o,ol4 children born. and in 1924 one for every s,543 children. Apparently premature babies born after six and a half to seven months nay live, even though they weigh as little as 1900 grams or 5-S pounds.
 A case is recorded In which five babies were born a' one time. one on about II ounces. It moved is oxtremities at birth. but lived only ! few minutes.
 4 case is reported of an infant which weighed only G5o grams or ot ounces and lived only 8 month. In one case a child measured 15 ,nches or 3S centimeters in length and weighed 22 ounces. It doubled its weight at the end Of one month aAi lived.
 The First Year
 Ii is much more difficult for a premature or an immature infant to survive the first year of life than for one born at the regular lime and fully developed.
 Forty per cent of immature fn- fants who weigh less than four pounds at birth die within the first twenty four hours Of those weigh ing more than five and a half pounds only about 1-2 per cent die during the first twenty-four hours.
 X child born so greatly under weight demands special nursing care. careful regulation of the heat of it's atmosphere, proper feeding , and special care to prevent infection

 When beauty is the criterion for woman and strength for man. one may readily SC that the taprrine face might be considered as showing weakness Tn the masculine sex.

 Never was sunshine so radiant as on that February afternoon fifty years ago when We were married. :" Mrs. Connolly recalled on the day of golden prophecJ gloriously fulfilled. How well l remember it.
