BE CAREFUL ABoSt THAT FIREP
FOREST fires nre beginning to Appear as daily items. The great
est tragedy nature faces is the forest fire. Many of them
are unavoWable ami spontaneous ; hut many are (bie to the careless
ness of heedless folk. The picnic season is beginning and it is a
good time to make a hearty resolution that nature suffer nothing
from your fault tlys summer.
Fire, whether in a city or at sea or in the forest, s a very terrir
hie thing, annihilating in its progress, nftst difficult to control.
It sets no bounds to its destruction other than the consuming of
everything its flaipes can feed on. A match thrown to the ground
can begin it; a cigarette stub or pipe plug can do it; an uncovered
camp fire often does it.
For years there has been a steady campaign educating the
American people in the preservation of their woods and forests.
Still there are fires, for the hardest thing in the world to teach the
human race is self-protection and the most difficult defect of char
acter to remedy is carelessness.
Those who enjoy nature should be the first to care for her and
the last to destroy her.

REALISM.
TN NORTHERN Kurope writers toil to show how peasants live
and die; their books are often fragrant of the soil, and of tho
barnyaril and the sty. A wrinkled woman with n hoe wades
slowly through some chapters ninie, and, all she talks about is
woe and griefs that don't take in their sign. The wrinkled
crone has seven sons, tall men wil;h sandburs in their hair, and
they are always packing tons of fhitilo burdens here and there.
And everything they do is vain, no harvests follow when they

Krroiicoiis Ideas
The usual conception of insanity is
a manifestation in language or con
duct of disease or defect of the brain.
liut the law draws a sharp line be
tween sanity and insanity, thus:
(1) A criminal is
Insane if he does
not know the nature
and quality of his
act or if, knowing
.the nuturo and qual
ity of his act, ho dues
YMgftjffL. 1-r t-ih'ht or wrong.
Ajm, :JrVr (2) A testator is
f rX insane If his mind.
memory or under
standing Is unsound.
(3) In a lunacy examination, made
by a commission of physicians expert
in that line appointed by a court of
record on application of a relative
or other person directly concerned.
the individual is insane if he Is inca
pable of managing himself, and his af
fairs. These points of dfferencft be-
j tween the common idea of insanity
and the interpretation of insanity. in
law should be known to everybody.
A purely medical Interpretation of
insanity permits no such clear divid
ing line between sanity and insanity.
Medically a great many persons who
are sane by these legal tests are as
certainly insane by the test of common
sense. It is not at all unusual for a
paranoiac to win his freedom from
nsylum prison by convincing a court
of his sound judgment and intellectual
integrity. The legal definition of in
sanity fails to compass monomania
delusion upon one subject. This per
mits some very dangeiuUn persona to
remain at large.
People generally havo only vague,
and usually erroneous notions about
tho causes of Insanity. Some of the
wrong notions are in themselves harm
ful. In another talk, to avoid confu
sion, we'll consider the true cause of
insanity. Here I am going to men
tion only some erronebus idens people
have about the causation of insanity.
(1 ). Pxcessive smoking, particu-
; larly cignretes. is perhaps a common
(stigma or sign or symptom of a de
fective brain, for everybody knows
j that morons aro the chief offenders
'in this respect, but there is no reason
to Imagine that it is a cause of in
sanity. 1(2). Indulgence in alcohol or the
cultivation of drug habits is likewise
rather an insane net, a manifestation
of an unsound mind, in the majority of
I cases, although we know that chronic
alcoholism, at least, not rarely lend
'to actual insanity in adult or mature
life.
(3) . That overworked notion of
"overwork" with its attendant hokum
nbout "a breakdown,'' so often utiliz
ed to conceal the facts from the, cu
rious public, has nothing to do with
the cnuse of Insanity. An individual
who is already Insane may have cer
tain fixed delusions nbout his work,
business cares, debts and other things
which would not worry him in his
right mind, . ( v'
(4) . Insomnia Is ho more a cause
of insanity than neglect of exercise is.
Here, again, a not uncommon symp
tom in certain types of insanity Is
popularly taken to be a cause. In
nine cases out of ten, insomnia is a
temporary difficulty and the victim is
mentally sound, but now and then the
nocturnal restlessness of some one who
is insane makes such .an Impression
upon the lay mind as to ernse the com
forting observation that It meant
nothing liko that in the other nine
cases. 9

I was astonished to read the article
in which you said that one's diet does
not affect constipation. I spent the
(winter in Florida and ate. a great deal
of oranges and grape fruit, and while
I was there my bowels never were bet
ter. (D. H. R.)
Answer. I am astonished to read
what you said I said, for I said noth
ing of the kind. I simply asserted that
no wholesome or proper food or ar
ticle of diet is constipating or binding,
and I added that certain foods are
more laxative than others, so you see
you must have mlsundorstood what I
said or else the printers have been
moro careless than usual. What we
eat largely determines constipation.
Send us a stamped self addressed en
velope and ask for Kules of Breaking
Cp the Constipation Habit. ' Please do
no clip this, but just ask for what you
want. I cannot send the rules unless
you tell mo that you need them.

ed), and while here she kissed us all,

peatedly. Only now have we learned
thift she had cancer of the throat, and
we are terribly frightened. (J. F. C.)
Answer. There is no occasion for
any anxiety on that score for cancer
Ii snot communicable anyway.
Ky clash Culture.
For quite a while I have been put
ting vaseline on my eyelashes and rub
bing it on the edges of the lids every
night, hoping to make my eyelashes
grow long. Lately I have been hav
ing some trouble with my eyesight.
Mother thinks the vaseline is the cause,
and she would like to know before tak
,lng me to an oculist,
j Answer. It Is silly to imagine that
you can Increase nhe growth of tho
eyelashes by applying anything to
them or to the eyelids. The petro
leum jelly Is not likely to bo the cause
of any trouble with the eyesight Of
course, you may have Infected your
eyelids if the .petroleum jelly Was in
an open can. Any such medicament
should be kept in a collapsible tube,

"During the last twelve months
the economic condition of Europe,
has materially improved. And the
most satisfactory fenture of this im-
provement 1b tho
fact that it has
been firm and
steady, not vio-
lent and spectneu-j
lar," so declares
PhMlp Snowden
British statesman,
in a recent article.
He goes on to say:
"The foreign ex
changes liave
made a great ad
vance toward sta
IdlHy. The move
ment of the ex
changes is probably the best baro
meter of the economic condition of
tho world. By this test the coun
tries of Europe may be said to have
passed out of a state of high fever
Into a condition of normal tempera
ture, though enfeebled constitution.
"The stability of the exchanges
and of currencies is the essential
condition of trade confidence. When
the currency of a country fluctuates
violently from day to day, or from
hour to hour, nil sense, of security
Is destroyed. A spirit of reckless
ness seizes everybody, and trade and
finance becopie a gamble. All ..the
ordinary motives of Industry are
undermined. ,
"The curses of Europe in the years
aftor the armistice vast inflation,
depreciating and fluctuating curren
cles and exchanges, budget deficits
if no( wholly removed have been
vastly mitigated in the last twelve
months. .
Germany, Austria, Hungary, Po
land and Russia have reformed their
currencies, and these new currencies
arc maintaining stability. There are
at present no signs of any reaction.
Dawes Plan. JIcliw Centr,? Europe.
Whatever may bo or.? ' views of
the ultimate practicability of the
Dawes plan, there can be no doubt
that the Immediate effect of this
settlement of tho troublesome repa
rations question has ; been to .very
materially help the economic-and fi
nancial restoratoin of Central Eu
rope. "As was the case before the war,
Germany must still be the main
spring of the economic machinery of
Central Europe's trade. A prosperous
and stable Germany will revivify tho
surrounding countr!est and their pros
perily will react on' world trade.
"The main benefit to Gormany,
and to European reconstruction, from
the establishment of the Dawes plan
is that It has put the budgetry posi
tion, and also the currency and
fiscal systems, on a sound basis. The
fixing of reparations payments at n
definite sum has removed the feel
ing of uncertainty ns to what might
be demanded from her which pre
viously existed, nnd which was fatal
to effort on the part of Germany
to restore her economic life.
Poland Gains Proud Place.
"Tho great work of tho League
of Nations in promoting the recon
struction loans for Hungary nnd Aus
tria has had a most beneficial effect,
not merely on the countries directly
concerned but upon the condition of
Central Europe generally. In Hun
gary in particular, a marvelous
transformation has token place. The
budget position Is satisfactory. For
eign trade Is much more active, and
railway traffic returns have Increas"
ed to the extent of putting the rail
ways on a paying footing."
