Standard Oil in the last thro
north' has paid dividends of mor
A m $55,000,000. That’s at th
r '.,t e of more than five per cent 01
t aur billion dollars; so there is ?
four billion dollar concern righ
there. .
If you wait a few years it wil
be a ten billion dollar concern. But
a * you know, Mr. Rockefellei
doesn’t own all of it, or even half
i sf it.

f A great deal of Standard O*
prosperity, by the way, has been
achieved in a market of hard com
petition by intelligent newspaper
advertising. It is to be hoped the
able managers know that, and
realize that it pays to talk directly

advertising. This writer, bv + lm

Paris, advised by Andre Laphin,
eats raw wheat and feels better.
Monsieur Laphin says a table
spoonful of germinating wheat
eaten before luncheon, supplie.-
vitamins lacking in other food
especially the vitamin B that
stimulates nervous energy.
Roman soldiers, as they marched
toward Paris under Caesar, ate
raw wheat slung in a bag at the
belt, not bothering to soften it by
germinating in water. Their skulls,
dug up nGw, show marvellously
strong teeth, ground down, but not
one missing or decayed.
Good bread, if you chew it well
is better for you, however.
Governor Martin, of Florida, has
forbidden race-track gambling in
his State, and is to be congratu

State will be better off. It wil
attract fewer blacklegs, thieve.-
and other undesirables.
Hubert T. Parson, president o y

THE CHATHAM RECORD
About your
Health
Things You Should Know
by John Joseph Gaines, M. D.
INTRAVENOUS MEDICINE
Two people are concerned here:
I ,he physician and the patient. Our
| folks are becoming educated—and
i very properly—in many of the up
i to-date methods in treating dis
ease. Injecting potent medication
directly into the veins of the patient
is a distinct advance in method,
and it has been practiced all over
. the land, in some cases with al-j
most miraculous results, and in
many with disaster following.
I have never given an intraven-'
ous injection that my heart didn’t)
come up in my throat a bit—with-!
out that apprehension that will |
| creep over the mentality of the'
careful doctor; then when one of mj!
I most esteemed specialist - friends |
i told me a short time ago, that all
! intravenous injections were danger-1'
I ous, and that he had practically
i ceased to give them, my apprehen
j sion grew; we can inject medicines
' into the muscles, and beneath the
| skin with much less concern as tc
■ safety.
I shall never permit an intraven
ous injection for any patient with
chronic valvular disease of the (
heart. A few autopsies have con
verted me in this particular. Coun
try physicians have not all the fa
cilitiesfor testing the coagulability
of the blood, hence they are com
pelled to rely upon the statement
of the manufacturer that the big
ampule is incapable of doing harm.
If the patient has a good heart,
the intravenous "shot” is a life
saver in some forms of pneumonia.
In arthritis, especially in the
; chonic forms, the chances are at
least fifty-fifty that no good, and
| possible harm may result. We have i
little to our credit, if we sum up
results carefully, in the treatment,
of chronic venereal diseases by this |
method, no matter what the agent |
used. In short, to rush into a
measure like that, without due de
liberation, is to put the spectacular
ahead of good judgment.
