An OLd-Time Doctor

I IKE Sinclair, he loves people, believes them much

an habitual criminal.
He is SO years old, himself a log cabin case from
town IN the northern part of Illinois called Fair
bury and an old-time horse buggy doctor
the surrounding country, he saw nothing in people
to affect his faith in their innate goodness except
to confirm 1t day by day. At first his territory was
limited to the cruising radius of a horse ALWAYS
subject OF course to the restrictions imposed bv
blizzard and flood. Later he drove an automobile
and sometimes travelled so miles to deliver babv
on Kitchen table or take out an appendix or .
bullet with only a cowboy for an assistant and
greasy wash-basin, secured on the stove for

With all his humility, he is reasonably proud
as he recalls that he had a case of child
ped fever although one baby was born in his buggy
ana another on spring mattress as the mother
was being carried to high ground to escape a
Hood.
In 1919 he went to California to die as he saws

Your Health
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN-

MOST common Of skin diseases today probably is
Iva ringWorm infection, which produces the So
called athletes foot. 1t is said that 10 million per-
sons in this country suffer from this condition
Many types of organisms are included under the
ringworm classification. The condition usually is
found between the toes and usually developed from
walking barefoot on the floors of gymnasiums swim
ming pools and locker It particularly prev
alent in these days among high school and college
students
The first symptoms itching and scaling be-
tween the toes Gradually. if the condition gets
worse, the skin cracks and small blisters develop.
7 MERE are many different ways in which this
Il malady be treated, including antiseptics the
use Of the X-ray and various types Of ointments.
However, you should be certain that the medicines
penetrate suitably, that it may be desirable to
soak the feet long time in hot water before apply
ing the ointments
Among the most common diseases affecting the
skin is that with the ordinary pus germ. This pro-
duces eruptions which spread rapidly from child
to another, particularly when a common towel is
used
The disease is called impetigo If child de-
velops this condition, he should be separated from
other children and quite certainly should separate
washing and drying materials.
Generally the condition may be controlled, if seen
early, by washing the crusts away with warm water
and soap and then applying suitable antisepc ONT
ment.
a NOIHER common condltlon Is tne So-calleo
L n seven-year itch, also called Cuban itch and
scabies. 1t is caused by tiny parasite which bur-
rows into the skin and lays its eggs.
At night it comes TO the surface of the body when
it gets warm under the bed clothes and the itching
begins. The person who tches rubs and scratches,
which tends to spread the condition.
An old market woman discovered years ago, or at
least reminded her doctor, that sulphur will rid a
person of this itch hot bath is taken and all the
bed clothes and night clothes are changed Then for
four successive nights ointment containing sulphur
is used.

DENNSYLVANIA'S Governor
l. Elect George Earle was pres
sent at the opening ceremonies of
Congress.
AS the first Democratic gov
ernor of the Keystone state in
many decades he was the object
of much f1attering attention. But
one unknown took a fall out of
him.
Gov. Earle was surrounded by
an admiring group when the
stranger walked up and asked.
"Are you Gov. Earle?"
yes"

marked, and calmly walked away

CATCHING a six-pound trout
~ with pillow line" may
sound like the product of an
elastic imagination, but that's the
story of Speaker Joe 3yrns, and
he sticks to it.
At a lake in Glacier National
Park where he was vacationing, a
guide took Byrns and another
guest fishing for pickerel. After
trolling all day neither got a
strike. The tackle, Joe explains,
was cord heavy enough to use for
a pillow lire, and a triple-gang
hook with a huge hunk of meat
on it.
The guide, abashed at the
empty fish Golfers of his charges,
decided the tackle was too heavy,
and stopped at a saw mill to bor-
row lighter equipment. Only one
pole and line were available. and
Byrns generously resigned in
favor of his fishing mate.
While the guide and mate de-
parted for another effort, Byrns
located a nearby dam, at the bot
tom of which was a deep pool. He
whirled the heavy meat-laden
hook around several times, and
let go with a hammer throwing
gesture that he now uses for
calling the House to order.
No sooner had it struck the
water than an immense fish COB
bled it and started off. After
minutes Of intense fighting, Byrns
managed 10 land it-a six-pound
salmon trout, largest caught in
years.
And
At dark, when his fishing mate
returned with the guide he still
had caught nothing.

YORK CRITICAL OF
MINUTES ADDRESS
Demands Law DivorCing
Liquor From Politics.

Taking sharp issue with the
liquor recommendations of Gov
Paul v. McNutt in his message to
the Legislature, L. E. York, Indiana
Anti-Saloon League superintendent,
today urged enactment OF a law
that would prohibit public officials
municipal county and state, in
Guiding legislators, from engaging
in the beer or liquor business.
Criticising the Governors stand,
Mr.. York declared:
"The people have read with dis
gust the Governors message before
the Legislature relating to the
liquor traffic.
He uses superf1uous language in
order to conceal his real object of
keeping liquor in politics.
HE states that the present law
did not put the state into the liquor
business. He failed to say that
something worse was accomplished
the present law created a part
nership between politicians and the
liquor traffic And the Governor
offers no relief"
