But Not Forbidden to Men THE WORLD'S BEAUTY Not in selection is true beauty seen, not in a fragrant county lane, nor in a daisy field all white and green, nor in a golden meadow wash- ed with rain. But in a smbky, noisy, busy street, whose only colours through shop windows show; where there is constant march of 'human feet that bravely journey to rind fro; where eripples play a gay and dar- ing air and blind folk stand and dream that it is light; where pas- sersby who haven't much to spat yet stop to give ungrudgingly theirmite. And where small homes nestle close together,: beneath whose roofs hard- working people live, who help each. other - in the stormy weather, who have so little and yet can always give. 0, beauty of the world, you are seen best where the soul's banner floats courageously above the turmoil of the day's high -fevered quest in ugly plac- es beautified by love. W'illleimina Stitch A couple of weeks ago I made use of a. quotation at the head of this column and inadvertently neglected to credit it, .As I do not wish. to be aceused of the unpardonable literary sin of plagiarise; I hasten to say that the item mentioned, "Old Path- er Time;" was from Wlilhelmine Stitch's charming little volume, "Silver Linings," from which I quote again today. 'Ilhis little book was given me recently as a birthday gift and I've much enjoyed its sweet phil- osophy and' have been handing on some of it, My attention was draws to my carelessness in not giving the lady credit by a question from a correspondent as to whether the item mentioned was original. This cor- respondent paid me the compliment of saying that it "sounded like" me, which was a very nice compliment, 1 think. But I have always despised plagiarism and honesty compels me to confess that I cannot stitch words to- gether as charmingly as the lady of the "Silver Linings." In conversation recently with a lady who is a little dull of hearing I learned'from her that people are not always considerate of her affliction;, it seems too much trouble to talk to her and they pass bywithout so much as a smile. One can hardly credit this, es a smile costs so little effort that one would think it would come quite without thought. But I sometimes think those who are a little dull of hearing ought to have our kindliest thought. It• is such a handicap to be• thus shut out so often front the pleasures of con- versation that it ought to be our pleasure to cheat that' handicap as often as we can. Once, several years ago, owing to an effeetion of the ears I was deaf for some weeks. Happily it was but a local condition which soon; cleared up but I shall never for- get the isolation of those weeks, when I lived in a world' of silence. I could see the lips of those about me moving, could see their expressions change as they conversed' together, but I, imprisoned in that. castle of silence, could take no share. It was. a 'terrible experience. I used to think I'd rather be blind, for then I could not see' the expressions on the facesof others without knowing what it was 'all about. But I do not' know that I would now. One can see so much of beauty, and after all, one hears many a grating, unlovely sound. A dear lady whom I know says that because she is deaf she never hears disagreeable things; that it is so much trouble to talk to her that nobody takes the troublo to tell,, her anything but goeieland nice things. Two of the dearest and sweetest women I have ever met have had to bear the handicap of deafness and perhaps that is one of the reasons of their sweetness; noth- ing unlovely comes from without, and all within is sweet and lovely. ;But when we meet anyone 'who is thus handicapped it should be our aim to assist in sotne small way to overcome it. We need rapt take the trouble to tell "them any disagreeable things, but we can, at least, smile and if time permits, say a few pleasant things.

Just as you have a right to expect others to protect you and your family from disease, so you should play the game and do your part in protecting them. If there are disease germs in your body, keep them to yourself. In any ease, you, cannot get rid of them by passing them to someone else. A11 you do in that case is to spread the disease to which the germs give rise. Everyone shonid know that most of the communicable diseases are spread by the transference of germ -laden saliva from the sick to the well.. This is true, not only of the common cont- municable diseases, such as measles, whooping cough, diphtheria and scar- let fever, but also of tuberculosis. Just as soon as this knowledge, is put into practice, and tare taken at all times, there is found a definite decroase in the number of cases of eommmnieable diseases. No one would think for a moment of purposely endangering the life of a child, hut that is done every day by those individuals, who, either through ignorance or carelessness. spaced their saliva around. We naves know adieu disease germs may be in our saliva, for such germs are often pres- ent . oven when we are apparently well. It is only by taking care at all times that we will be sure of lre- Sag careful when there is need for us to be so. The person who spits is a real menace. Spitting.is simply a bad habit for which there is no excuse. Never spit unless you need to, and then use your handkerchief. In the material which you expectorate, .there may be Millions of disease germs, This .etate- ment is not an exaggeration for the person suffering from tuberculosis Don't Suffer With Rheumatic Agony Stop The Pain --Reduce The Swelling Swiftly With Joint -Ease A Wonder Worker that Soaks Right its and Geta Way Down to Where The Trouble Starts People in Canada must like Joints that -they buy so Hutch of it. They use it because it Helps to quickly eaie their aches and pains.: They know', it instantly brings com- fort to inflamed, pain tortured joints -- they have learned• that for stubborn rheumatism there is nothing so speedily helpful.

When Joint -Base Gets bi Joint Mis- ery' Get®' Out-- Quick. does pass out in has sputum millions of the germs of tuberculosis in a day. That is why the case of tuberculos- is is always plight how to take care of and destroy his sputum. There are many people who, unknown to them- selves, have tuberculosis, and who are passing out the germs each time they spit. It is they who are chiefly responsible for spreading tuberculosis because they have no idea that they have the disease and so do not take any care. Tubereulosis is, as everyone knows, a very serious and frequently fatal disease. It is spread chiefly by care- less spitters, by those who do not play the game. Let it be understood that if sp]tters were to stop and if every person were to take care that his salvia was not being passed on to other people, we would be well on the way to seeing tuberculosis disappear. To spit is to endanger the lives of others. The careless spitter is a pub- lic menace; he spreads disease and exposes those around him to sickness and death. THE HEART AND ARTERIES The heart is one of the vital or- gans of the body. By this we mean that when the heart teases to do its work, life cannot continue. The gradual wearing out of the heart and arteries is part of the process of growing old, When the heart or arteries, or both, show signs of di8ease or of wearing out early in life, we find an indivi- dual who is prematurely old. Nor- mally, the arteries are elastic. The loss of elasticity is accompanied by thickening and hardening of the walls of the arteries, and, as a result, there develops the condition known as hardening of the arteries. This change' in the walls of the ar- teries may be due to a'chronic'pois- ening of the body. The absorption of the poisons from diseased teeth; tonsils, head sinuses or ether parts simply mean- that the various- tissues of the body are being poisoned. The. heart and arteries show the effects of such poisoning; not by the inci- dence of any particular disease but , by. a premature wearing -out as' a re-. sult of the injury done to them by the poisons. • ;Overstrain will almost eurel,y leave genre permanent damage. 10 is not only . foolish but harmful to over- strain some drgan of the body, and if the heart is called upon to do more than' it is capable of, doing, it is .injured ,thereby. To stop chert of overstrain, never to go en. to' ex- hattstion, is a matter of 'common- sen8e. Moderation in all things is sound advice to foliose. This applies to play as well as to .wnrlc, to eating as well .as to drinking. The heart and arteries are but met of the whole body. Dilease of another part, or the faulty functioning of other organs throws a strain upon' PRE— CLINTON 'NEWS -RECORD the 'heart and arteries: Keeping the whole body fit is the only way 00 maintain the. fitness of its various, ant s p The whole body shows the effect of abuse of the digeatiye system through unproper eating and ;drink- ing habits, or by overeating or 'un- dereating. The person who is over- weight is throwing an extra load 00 his heart,• To prevent the heart and arteries from wearing out early in life, it is necessary to keep the body fit, and to live moderately, avoiding over- strain, Rest is just lie importantas exercise; both are needed to keep the body healthy. Diseased teeth, gums; tonsils,- head sinuses, or other foci df infection must be properly treated to prevent the poisoning which wears out the important parts of the body early in Iife. Growing pains in childhood and chorea (St. Vitus' Danea) are signs of rheumatic infection, and should be planed under ;treatment without de- lay. They are serious because if they are not properly treated, they often result in heart disease, To those preventive measures, add the periodic health examination, and many eases of heart disease will be prevented and fewer of us will grow old prematurely. • Questions 'concerning Health ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation,. 184 s-sociation,.184 College Street, Toronto, will be answered personally bat letter. SELECTING THE BREEDING PENS ' (Experimental Farms Note) The time is at hand to give thought to the mating of the breed- ing pens. It should be borne in nand that vigour is of primary importance, sel- ect for breeding purposes only birds that have this quality developed to a marked degree as it is only' birds of this kind that can be expected to. pass 'on to their progeny sufficient stamina to stand up under the condi- tion of heavy egg production so es- sential to satisfactory profits under present economic conditions. First of a1I the females for the pen should be of good size and type for the breed and should have indicated by their past performance that tbey have stamina and vigour to stand up under heavy egg production. This presupposes that the females will have trapnest records. To these fe- males selected not only for size, body type and high laying ability, but also for their ability to lay eggs of stan- dard size should be stated .a male that is the son of a' high laying hen whose eggs averaged above 24 ounces to the dozen and whose sis- ters have also shown by their re- cords that these qualities have been inherited by thein. This male should be strong and vigorous as evidenced by a good full body placed on well set legs, a head not coarse though fairly strong with a clean cut smooth face and prominent eyes, showing a bold energetic expression.
