(Ip ;to the age of twenty, rheum-
atism is a more frequent cause of
heart clisease than all other causes
combined, This is the opinion of medi-
cal authorities the, world over, but Dr.
IlavenEmerson of New York goes
one step farther. He Says that heart
disease, due to rheumatism, re, coth-
tagious. Dr. Emerson. cites a prallel
to illustrate his contention: He draws
attention to the fact that only within
recent years have medical.. practition-
ers and research 'students m the field
of heart disease begun to realize that
there is a ,virus of rheumatism which
may be contagious . If all members
of the .. households in which ,an open
'ease of pulmonary tuberculosis has
been found are carefully examined,
not less than 18 per cent. of them,
young and old, will show, evidence of
tuberculosisin an acute or sub -acute
stage.This coininon experience is, to
our minds, easily eiplained, because
we can see, trace and demonstrate, the
tubercle bacillus; which causes the
disease- This organism can—be found
in the sputum of the open case of tub-
erculosis, usually in the dust of his
bedroom and in: the diseased tissues of
the persons who have been in close
association with him in the home.
Now if we repeat -such a 'study in
thefamilies from which acute cases
ofrheumatic heart disease have been
admitted to hospital care or to dispen-
sary supervision, we shall find that
here again 15• per cent. of the • con-
tacts, those in the intimate 'circle of
the families, will; commonly give a de-
finite history or show physical evi-
dence of attacks of acute rheumatic.
fever or of tonsilitis or of chorea with
or wiiihouttiaccompanyino• affections of
the heart. True, this is only circum-
stantial evidence, and until some way
is found of identifying with exactness
the . specific organism of rheumatic
fever and. its many secondary injur-
ies to heart and other tissues, we can -
not speak with the same positiveness
that we do of the communicability of
tuberculosis, However, • enough is
known to justify us in thinking of and
i dealing with the group, of illnesses
which we elass'as acute rheumatic, as
if we were dealing with an acute cozn-
municable infection. This calls for the
simple and well-established precau-
tions of so-called medical aseptic

MATTER OF HEALTH
Little children quickly get, out of
sorts but by prompt treatment they
can just as quickly be set right again.
Most of their troubles arise in the -first
place from the stomach and bowels;
that is why.a goad clearing out is the
first thing the doctor prescribes. Moth-
ers, why not let Baby's Own Tablets
keep yaw children well? Unlike. that
.111-sanelling, rank tasting castor oil so
dreaded by most children, the Tab-
lets are pleasant to take and their
action, though thorough, is gentle 'and
causes no discomfort to either the
baby .or the growing child. Baby's
Own Taliletis are a never failing reme-
dy for
eme-dy.for relieving constipation and indi-
gestion; thus they break tip colds and
simple fevers; expel warms and make

Ottawa Scoute at .Rideau Hail.
About 500 iioy Scouts and, Wolf Cubt3
of the Ottawa District were recently
tho guests of the Chief Scout for Cana-
da, Lord Byng of Vinty, at Rideau Hall,
All kinds cif games were indulged in
and there was a game' of Bare and
hounds and a euory bottle that will not
soon be forgotten. 'There was a hoavy
run on the ,toboggan slides and despite
the fact that the h was somewhat
toe
seat a considerable amount of skating
was indulged in. Their Excellencies,,
''Lord and Lady Byng, and the members
of the vice -regal party chatted with
many of the Scouts and Cubs and a
few enaps of the gathering were taken
by Lady Byng. At five o'clockre-
freshments were : served to all. Be-
fore the guests departed three cheers•
and a tiger were given for Their Ex-
cellencies, cheers that made the raft
ere of Government 'Ilse ring as they
had perhaps never rung before.

Galt Helps Preston to `Start.
Last summer two boys from Preston
attended a Boy Scout camp which was
visited by a petrel of Scouts from, the
1st Galt troop, Friendships were form-
ed between the boys of the two towns,
with the result that the Preston,boys
later joined the Galt Troop, and
brought with, them enough other Fres-
ton boys• to form the Buffalo-. Patrol.
They made the five mile, trip to and
from Galt every week --sometime..
twice -a week—for troop meetings, ,-In
terest S cou tin developed n g d e oped in Pres-
ton. The olden folks began to seethat
itw as a good thing, but both they and
Scoutmaster Wheeler at Galt realized
that the only solution to the problem
of providing Scouting opportunities for
Preston boys was to form a Preston
Troop. 'This has now been done, the
Buffalo Patrol forming the nucleus of
the new Troop. In a few days the 1st
Galt Troop will visit Preston in a body
and present to the Preston organiza-
tion its new charter and to its - Officers
their •certificates of registration. ,+
In thts instance Gait Scouts have
done a splendid piece of "Scout mis-
sionary work" --let's hope a number of
other troops"wil'i do" likewise.

Dr, Williams' Pink Pills are an all -

able in the spring when the system is
loaded with impurities as aresult of
the indoor life of the winter months.
There is no other season when the

and enriching, and every dose of these
pills helps to enrich the blood. In the

idea how big our nearest neighbor's

that worry us. If the truth were
