A DR. WORK WHO WORKS.

CHRISTIANITY A FAILURE?
Dr. Work, Secretary of the In

ahead as rapidly as a child ad

learned to talk and read.
We light little bonfires, heat
steam, and thus obtain power.
Mars miirht teach us to harness the
power of the sun, and transmit en

away with engines or fuel on fly

power.
It is said that in this country
there is more commercial "Hying
mileage" than in any other.
For that thanks are due to Pres
ident Coolidge and Postmaster
General New, who have encour
aged air mail routes. But flying
back and forth by mail carriers,
most desirable, docs not mean
building up national aerial defense.
And for our commercial flying
we depend on private initiative,

his opinion is important and en
couraging. Should millions of women read
of the death of Sir Oliver Lodge,
Marconi, Millikin and a dozen
other great scientists the majority
would say, "That's too bad," and
be not much interested.
Every one of millions will be In
terested to hear that Jean Phillipe
Worth, the famous dressmaker, has
gone to a land where there 13 no

His house dressed queens and
empresses of state and finance, also
young ladies with whom their sons .
ran around in Paris. His word
meant more in real authority to the
world's women than all the deci

Columbia College, says static and
"fading," enemies of radio en

planets are trying to talk to us. ,
They send powerful messages that

Pupin thinks we shall understand
those messages within twenty-five
years.
Our atre listens indifferently to
that news, but no man can exag

Clergymen are protesting against
the abbreviated "Xmas," which re
duces the name of Christ to 'X.
The abbreviation is disrespectful
to the most beautiful word in his
tory, and it is disrespectful to the
English language. Anybody who
was in too much of a hurry to
write out "Christmas" should not
use the word.
Wise men in Milwaukee will de
vote three days to discussing high ,

Christianity be of any parctical use
in changing existing conditions!
Christianity has been changing
existing conditions for about nine
teen hundred years, there is no
reason why it should break down
now. To "love thy neighbor as
thyself," trying to help him, in
stead of trying to rob him, will al
ways improve conditions if men
mean it. -
Another suggestion before Con
gress is to forbid experiment with
an scientific study of poison gases.
The peak of absurdity is to sug
gest that we must not KNOW
about poison gases. Can we not
trust ourselves. Is it not idiocy
to say that our scientists shall not
keep this country informed about
important warlike weapons?
We are not planning to gas any
body, but we should be ready to
answer gas with gas. To tie our
hands would be idiocy.

About your
Health
A FIRESIDE CHAT.
"Keep the feet warm, the hea'
cool, and, the bowels open." I wa;
told by the old college profes.cn,
that strict obedience to this com
mand would insure a healthy body
at all times.
I can think of at Hast fifty seri
ous disorders, including fatal dis
ease of the kidneys, and dangerous
liver disorders, that have their ori
gin in constipation. From ordinary
auto-intoxication we go from bad
to worse; the kidneys break down
!n their futile attempts to carry
away the body-poisons; the gall
bladder becomes infected; the stom
ach rebels; the blood becomes more
vitiated; the heart finally weaken;
dangerously, and all becadse c'
neglected bowels. A stitch in Unit
is worth nine applied too late.
The question of cold feet is in
creasingly evident in these winter
days. The low-pattern shoe is thn
correct thing in fashion; but I air
yet unconvinced that the low shoe
is not a shortener' of life, and I
know it is a menace to health; es
pecially for women. The silk stock
ing, the "goose pimples" beneath
and the congested lung make the
thoughtful physician wonder if the
added attractiveness is worth the
price!
Light head dressing should be
worn, summer, or winter. Tish.'
