When q patient Is told he Is suffer.
ing from acidoSis he usually makes
the mistake Of thinking that his
blood Is literally acid. but this Is q
mistake. for death occurs the minute
that the fluids Of the body become
largely acid. II one Is to 60 on liv-
ing, the blood stream must remain
slightly alkaline. When w speak Of
an acidosis, WI simply mean that the
alkalinity Of the blood has been de-
creased. For some reason the equt-
librium between the acid and alkalin-
ity Of the blood has temporarily been
upset 50 that there Is not the usual
alkaline reaction In its full strength,
but it has by NJ means been totally
destroyed.
Acidosis is not . disease, but II the
alkalinity Of the blood Is reduced,
many diseases find it easier to gain
q foothold. Among these are the in
fictitious fevers. rheumatism. diabetes,
mellitus. nephritis, arthritis. and the
evnereal diseases.
A simple measure for acidosis Is to
give q dose Of sodium bicarbonate.
The amount required to give an al
lakine reaction Of the urine In an
ordinary person Is from five to ten
grams. However, when q person Is I
suffering from acidosis he may have
to be given several times this amount
Of sodium bicarbonate before there Is
any manifestation Of alkilinity In the
urine. As q usual thing, the body
Is well able to regulate the quantity
Of the blood stream so that the re-
action is as stable as the body,s tenn.
perature. but II through wrong living
this control is not maintained, then
the acid alkaline balance Is disturbed
and . condition Of acidosis exists.
The body fortunately has several
methods of eliminating an excess Of
acidosis. and 1t never stands peace.

Lindy's Glider Risks

Now that Lindbergh has taken to the glider, or sail
plane in the course Of hts experimentation in heavier
than-air flying q feeling uneasiness will prevail In this
country on the score Of possible harm Detailing him. The
national regard for him Is 20 deep and sincere that every
risk ne takes Is deplored. Yet he has proved repeatedly
that ne Is master OF the plane. and It Is recognized that
ne takes no risks beyond the known factors Of safety. It
Is the unknown, the accidental. that constitutes the real
menace: Such occurred yesterday out in California,
where Lndbergh Is at work on some tests In gliding. He
set out IN . motorless plane IN perfect form, but IA ris-
Ing from his start the glider lost one Of its ailerons. or
controls. which fell to the ground. Iindbcrgh continued
the flight and made : perfect landing some distance
away. He has mastered the plane even In is partial
disablement. He said afterward that the crippled ma
chine was 1t no time out Of control.

A Complicated Problem

Naval weapons and naval strategy are changing rapid
ly these days. This is one Of the things that makes tn,
job OF the London naval conference delegates such
complicated one.
Limitation Of construction Of 1~oy000-ton cruisers is the
most important matter at issue. Yet naval experts are
beginning to wonder If a new type Of small cruiser, not
over 5000 tons in size. may not be the most potent
weapon in future naval warfare.
Such ships have already been outlined. They would
have few guns. but would have an extremely long cruis-
ing radius: and each one would carry four or five air.
planes. Their proponents declare that such vessels, as
commerce destroyers. would surpass any existing cruiser
as much as ordinary cruisers surpass the sea raiders Of
the "Alabamas" day.
That's the sort of thing the delegates are up against.
They convene to discuss one type of warship, and find
that another type may replace it in value before the
ink can get dry on any agreement they may sign.

These final lines. uttered by a cabinet member in tn
Lincoln administration. bring to a close John Drink
! waters play depicting the life and character of the Grea
Emancipation.
Now keenly it is appreciated on Lincoln's birthday tina,
he does belong to the ages.
With time, his place in the worlds history become.
greater. Here and there come to light a forgotten let.
ter, a hidden speech, a new state paper from the archives
or some anecdote from those still living who knew him
These all strengthen rather than weaken his place in
history. What a tribute lies in this. Many a great fig
ue IN history has lost lustre and renown as time brought
to light new side-lights on character and policies, Not
SO with Lincoln.
He belongs to the ages and he grows in stature with
the ages.
Albert Shaw, the brilliant editor OF Reviews of Reviews,
has just published a remarkable history Of Abraham
Lincoln. 1t is one Of the many works on Lincoln which
each year discloses. Worthy to be ranked even above
that Of Ludwig, published last year. 1t is unique because
1T depicts popular attitude toward Lincoln as reflected
through cartoons and there is just enough historical
matter to explain the significance Of the drawings. No
man in public life was more viciously attacked by word
or by cartoon than Lincoln.
Mr.. Shaw has given a new picture Of this many sided
president. He takes the reader back 70 years and pic
lures Lincoln as he looked to his contemporaries and
it is done with the skill Of a greater reporter as we'll as a
great editor.
Words are feeble to pay new tributes to one whose
memory is so revered in this and other lands. Ruler
over the destinies Of a nation plunged in a bitter war
of brother against brother. he was essentially a man of
peace. Never. however. was he for peace or compro-
mise except with honor.
His great fight to preserve the union established for
ever, a high conception Of national honor and patrio-
tism.
But he was no pacifst. He was not an impractical
idealiSt.
His theories and his logic might we'll guide those who
are today sitting in conference in London considering
the great issue of world peace.
Indeed, he belongs to the ages: he has done much by
force Of example and precept to guide the ages.
May it ever be so!
