PROPER BREATHING.
It Blaye a Large Part In tha Promo
tion of Good Health.
Proper breathing Is one of the great
Mg factors In promoting and retaining
good health
It Is uo great nnmlwr of years since
the subject of deep breathing has en
gaged not only the attention of physl
ciaus. hut trainers of athletes and the
public generally. Recent authorities
give s(»ecial emphasis to the efficacy of
deep breathing for asthmatics aud for
children aud youug adults who are pre
disposed to tuberculosis
Professor Arnold Hiller In the Ber
tin Clinical Weekly uotes that It In
creases the passage of blood through
the liver: that It Increase* the aeere
Clou and excretlou of bile; that the
stomach when tilled with food may
likewise be favorably Influenced be
cause the movement of the stomach
contents through the pylorls Is faclll
tated
“Deep breathing.” says the New
Turk Medical Record. ”la the moat eel
enttfle resource for the prevention of
uric acid disease. Oue must begin
with diaphragmatic breathing, which
uHturally precedes rib breathing The
inspiratory movements are now slowly
Increased until all the muscles Involved
lu rib breathing gradually participate
One begins with three daily periods of
fifteen or twenty minutes eaeh. The
position of the breather Is Immaterial
He may do his forced breathing while
staudlug or walking.
“lu some Individuals a very deep
breath appears to arrest the pulse l>e
cause of the compression of the sub
elavlau artery: hence Inspiration
should be limited to a certalu number
per minute."
HOW MODERN SHIPS SINK.
Timaa Whan Watar Tight Bulkhaads
Ara a Manaca to Lifa.
Nearly every class or ueslgu or vessel
sinks In a particular way For In
stance, the old type of slugle hoitoiu
steamer, with few or no bulkheads
that Is. in the modern sense of the
term—almost invariably founders on
more or less of an even keel, wbH1
means that it sinks level aud not with
Its bow or stern up iu the air.
This is accounted for by the fact tliai
at whatever point the water may en
ter it practically tlnds its own level, u
there are no snbdh isions to obstruct it
Now. in the case of a modern ves
sel, which Is built with numerous sub
divisions. It invariably happens tha
site founders with her how or stern
high out of the water, or else she sinks
with a heavy list, or taut, to one side
or the other. The reason for this l.
that tlie bulkheads prevent the watei
which enters the vessel from flnding
its level. Consequently when one par
ticular portion of the ship is full of wu
ter. while the remainder Is practically
water tight, that part which is water
laden sinks tirst. owing to its greater
weight.
It is for this reason that such terrl
file loss of life frequently occurs In
modern shipwrecks. Owing to the tin
even sinking it is often found impossl
Me to lower the majority of the life
l>OHts. as they would tail to reach Cut
water.—London Answers
Church Theaters.
Few people know that plays in Eng
land. Germany. Italy and France were
fostered for religious purposes by Un
church centuries before they were tak
en up as a separate secular business
Moreover, few visitors to St. Paul's
cathedral, in London, realize that the
church during Elizabeth's reign and
the tirst years of the reign of James 1
set aside one of its adjacent buildings
for use as a secular theater. Its little
stage was famous, and the company of
choir boys as actors presented many of
the great plays of Shakespeare's time
They acted from about 1 o93 to 1008
under the management of Edward
Pierce, their great master lu music,
who. aa church almoner, bad business
control of these adjacent buildings
owued by the church.—Loudon Stand

Warding Off Cancar.
Nurses, particularly those engaged tu
public health work, can do much to
prevent unnecessary deaths from can
cer. according to a bulletin of the
American Society For the Control of
Cancer. Many patieuts. especially wo
men, it is pointed out. speak to a nurse
about the danger signals of this dls
ease, such as lumps, persistent sores,
ulcerations and other irregularities,
when they would hesitate to call a doc
tor. Attention to these apparently
trivial conditions, says the bulletin,
ofteu means the actual prevention of
cancer, or at least its discovery in the
early stages, when a cure is possible.

Enlist Your Dollars
In the War
In this time of our country’s crisis an idle dollar is
as much a "slacker” as an idle man. Are your dol
lars doing their duty?
"The Liberty Loan of 1917” invites the immediate
response of the American people. Every dollar sub
scribed will help make it a success. The quicker the
better.
Armies of dollars are an absolute necessity for '
national defense. Unless th4 dollars at home
stand back of them, the soldiers in the field can
not do their utmost to protect our households
and our freedom.
