Do not "doeinr" yourself or your

way.
What hazy hleas wo all have as
to what constitutes hurmlessncss In

t lie like. Yet aspirin is a "rank
poison"' a habit forming drim, and
should never be taken except under
a physician's direction,
Why, even sit "simple" and
"harmless" a thing as pure water
e;in flo barm if used 1 iijudiClouHly.
.Many a running' sore ear has been
kept running and sore by water Ir
rigations. .Many a case of nasal

ears are quite liable to become In

It seems unite harmless to wash
the blood from a wound. Yet that
may be tlie very thing you should
not do. Iteeenlly one of our prom
inent HiifKcons was injured In an
automobile accident, which bruised
his head and '"lit bis face. Mo was
thought to be "out of his head"
when a kind he.i rted a ml well
meaning" old lady nought to wash
the blood away with tier handker
chief dipped in a nearby dirty
pool.
Kven though the water be sterile
and the handkerchief sterile, wag

cut Is Ut deprive that cut of one of
its best means of union.
1 tut one of the most harmful ef
fects of using medicines which, "If
they do no good will at least do
no harm," is that valuable time Is
lost. The bust way to put out a for
est fire Is to stamp upon the cig
arette stub that starts it. To do
anything else, to procrastinate and
experiment, on the plea that If
what you do does no good It will
at least do harm. Is to- let the fire
get beyond control.
No. If you are going" to "doc
tor" yourself be reasonably sure
what the trouble is and what the
effect of your treatment Is going
to be. If you are not pretty cer
tain of these things, consult the
physician, or at least refrain from
