Carelessness in the Auto

The mctorist, once in a while, Is guilty Of amazin;
thoughtlc5sncss.
In Massachusetts, the other day a man was driving
down a busy city street when the accelerator Of his car
stuck. Instead Of throwing out his clutch promptly and
bringing his car to a stop with the foot brake before try
ing to fix it. this motorist simply bent forward while the
car continued in motion and tried to pull the pedal up
with his fingers.
The result? His head went below the level of the
bottom Of tho windshield and he could not see where he
vas going. The car swept along at a rapid clip and
stack a street railway repair tower, killing one man
aid injuring another.
Such carcles5ness is almost unbelievable. Yet it is a
safe bet that nearly all OF us, at some time or another
do something nearly as foolish.
The man at the wheel OF an automobile owes 1t to his
fellows to keep his vigilance keyed up every second.

A Commission Acts Firmly

STATE pubic utilities departments do, occasionally. act
with considerable .ir.nness and decision. Notwithstanding
the criticisms with which they arc constantly being
showercd.
The Massachusetts, department the other day unan-
imeusly denied the Edison Electric Illuminating conf
p.ny OF Boston permission to split its stock in four By
changing the par value from sl00 to s25. In making
this decision. tho department asserted that the com.
panys financial policy has made little provision for
surplus or depreciation. and added. the company oagh!
not to increase its dividends until 1t was able to sell
electricity in its territory at rates comparable with those
Of the municipal plants, which arc about onc-half Of the
Edison rates"
This reminds us. somehow. of that re:nar. made by
a public utilities press agent during the recent power
trust Investigation. He said. you know. that the hes,
propaganda a public utility could issue would be a rate
reduction.

ways we'll to put the patient to bed
between wooden blankets. and in this
way induce the fcverish patient to
produce q copious sweating. Some
times 1t is advisable to put q hot
water bottle at the patients feet or
to give him a hot tub bath before
getting between the wooden blankets.
OF course, it is always a good plan
to clean out the patients bowels com-
pletely before starting the sweating.
This can be done with enemas or
with strong %laxatives, such as castor
oil. After the patient does get be-
tween the WOODEN blankets he should
be taken care of so he will continue
to sweat day and night until the fever
has entirely disappeared for at least
"a hours. No food of any kind should
be used during this time except pos
sibly a small amount of fruit juice.
together with large quantities OF
water. No other remedies arc ncces-
sary or advisable.
The patient may become very weak
during this treatment, but the rheu-
matism will be gone, and there Will
be no bad effects afterward.

Approaching Farm Relief

-Four o. five per cent loans on his crops. as proposed
BY the new National Grain corporation. is not the chief
solution OF the farm relief problem, but i; is a step that
will appeal to the general run Of northwestern grain
growers. Aid a to.al fund Of 100000 600 available to
borrowers OF this class ought TO help some in taking the
stress out OF the agricultural situation.
The effectiveness OF such d form OF relief lies III the
provision for storage OF grain which it affords. Short OF
production limited to actual needs only. which would
eliminate the depressing surplus, this is tho most hope
ful step toward systematic marketing that has been
brought forward. It offers the possibility Of orderly
marketing. whereby prices might. a: least. be kept stable
instead OF subjnc,ins the market to the spasmodic rushcs
OF Hhea, which keep its quotations in a state of gyratlon.

THE DANGERS or RHEUMATISM
fContinued)

THE DANGERS OF RHEUMATISM
tContinued)
There must always be intestinal
poisoning before rheumatism can de-
velop. This is truth both in acute
rheumatic fever and in the chronic
forms Of rheumatism known as rheu-
matoid arthritis, arthritis deformans,
and articular rheumatism.
In acute rheumatic fever the trouble
apparently starts suddenly, due to
overexercise or overexpoSure In bad
weather. Sometimes the start Is with
acute tonsilitis. It is we'll. however, to
remember that a chronic toxic con-
dition must have existed prior to the
acute attack, and that these irritating
causes only contribute their share In
prccipitating an acute crisis.
Whatever produces intestinal poi
soning is the thing that lays the sol.
| for the development Of any form of
rheumatism. Most cases Of acute
rheumatic fever recover within q few
weeks, but the patients are often left
| with bad heart defects due to the
long continued fever and the effect OF
| the irritating toxins In the blood
stream which must pass through the
different parts of the heart.
There is danger of a peculiar thick
ching in the wall Of the left auricle
of the heart. and the valves are also
frequently distorted from the rheu-
matte inflammation.
Perhaps the greatest danger from
! rheumatic fever is from the effect Of
the remedies which are often used.
When cases are handled properly,
either in childhood or during adult
life, there should be no bad after
| effects. and in hundreds of cases
which I have observed which were
treated with simple methods without
