Copeland’s HEALTH TAI*
0 Hardened Arteries
By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D.
(United States Senator and former Health Commissioner of
New York)
I find in my mail a letter from a lady in Pennsylvania. She asks
me three questions, about hardening of the arteries, sleeplessness and
neuritis. I assume that this lady is suffering from all these symptoms.
She may regard them as three separate and distinct ailments. As a mat
ter of fact, all of them might be due to the same cause.
„ UK. Cot txANO.
Hardening of the arteries cannot be regarded
as a disease. It is merely one of the symptoms
>f a manner of living which has not been entirely
proper. Carelesseness about the eating, neglect of
the bowels, failure of elimination by the kid
neys—these are other symptoms resulting from
the manner of living which is responsible for the
trouble with the arteries.
If we were to live close to Nature, keeping
all of Nature's rules, I suppose we might live on
for a hundred years or more, possessing all the
functions and capable of all the activities of
youth. The very fact that we do not live to such
an age. and in advance age do not possess such
health as I have indicated, is our own fault or the
fault of our parents.
The system must have an ample supply of
me various substances which are used in the tissues of the body. Not
-< alone must it have an ample supply, but it must not have an over
supply. If too much of a given mineral is constantly fed, there may
be a deposit of the surplus in some part of the body. In this wav the
artery ■walls may be overcrowded
with the mineral supply.
If the intestinal tract is not prop

Loxley, Ala.—"I was In an awful
bad state of health," says Mrs
Charles Jerkins, of this place. “1
' was all run-down and weak as could
be. I did not have the strength oi
a kitten. Some days X could hardly
lift my head from the pillow.
"I looked like a skeleton, I was
so thin and haggard. It took all
my will power to drag myself around
the house. I never walked any far
ther than I had to. for it hurt me
to stand on my feet.
“My back and sides hurt me until
I thought I could not stand it.
“I saw myself growing gradually
weaker and I did not know what tc
* do. I tried several things but
nothing helped me.
“One day I read about how othei
women had been helped by taking
Cardui, so I thought I would try it
I found it a splendid medicine. Af
ter I began to take it, I soon began
to feel stronger and able to dc
things.
“From that time to the present
I have taken Cardui several times
when I was run-down in health. It
has never failed to help me.”
Cardui should help you, too.

tion of the fecal substance. Poisons
'are developed and these are car
ried by the blood stream to every
part of the body. Some of these
poisons may be stimulants which
excite the brain and interfere with
sleep.
Nine times out of ten persons who
suffer from sleeplessness are consti

sleeplessness until the constipation
is overcome.

the tonsils, or the teeth, or the gall
bladder, may be carried to the nerv
ous system. As tlie result, there
may be an inflammation in the
nerve. This is called "neuritis."
To avoid hardening of the arteries
and sleeplessness, and neuritis and
headache, it is important to have
free elimination from the intestines
and kidneys. It is important to make
sure there are no centers of infec
tion It is important to live in such
a way as to get a right amount of
good food, fresh air sunlight and
exercise.
Answers To Health Queries.

sibility of something less serious?

Something To Think
About
April Fool!
-■= liy I5runo Lessing —
April is All Fools’ Day. In observ* I
ancc of this holiday many people i
love lo play pranks upon their cred-,
ulous and gullible friends. You re
ceive a mysterious telephone rail I
asking you to telephone to a cer
tain number and ask for Mr. Fish.
You find it is the Aquarium. Or
you are Ird into telephoning to the
weather bureau and asking for Mr.
Snow.
Some ingenious folks offer their
friends cakes made of rubber or put
a seidlitz powder into a salt cellar.
He are a playful people, with a
mild sense of humor and many of
us love this sort of thing.
The joke lies in crying "April
Fool!" when tfie victim realizes that
lie has been duped.
Why not make this a national
holiday upon which all people can
review the various occasions when
they were duped and cry ••April
Fool!'' to themselves?
Many people believed that Pro
hibition would aboli.sh the use of
alcohol, diminish crime and elevate
the country's standard of morality.
Gaze upon the picture today! Crime
debauchery, drunkenness. poison
ing, corruption everywhere.
April Fool!
We absolve churches from taxa
tion because they are a link be
tween us and the next world. They
are spiritual institutions whose pur
pose it is to prepare us for a fu
ture life. Instead of which, these
churches accumulate billions and
billions of dollars worth of earthly
goods. And support or attack can
didates for public office.
We spend billions of dollars for
public schools in order to give our
children an education. As a result
of a century of the kind of educa
tion which they have received, the
popular impression throughout the
land, today, is that Babe Ruth is
greater than Mozart! that Bill Hart
is greater than Shakespeare and
that Henry Ford is wiser than Aris
totle.
April Fool!
We waste millions of dollars and
billions of hours every year watch
ing paid performers play baseball
and football and other games when
we could have so much fun and
add so much to our health by play
ing these games ourselves.
We pay millions of dollars to al
dermen and legislators and con
gressmen to make laws for us, and
we let them make laws which we
do not like and which we refuse to
obey.
We want our wives and our sis
ters and our sweethearts to behave
themselves, yet we go to theatres
and cabarets to see creatures whose
principal asset is their misbehavior.
We stay up when we ought to go
to bed. We stay in bed when we
ought to get up. We eat things
that we know are not good for us—
which the silliest dog or duck would
refuse to do
Aprjl Fool!
One could stretch out, ad In

manity which, if we enjoy that
kind of humor, provide a vastly
better excuse for crying ‘'April

Adlerika relieves gas and sour

was in your system. Let Adlerika

Lyle Stephenson of Kansas City,
in this state, who Is given to col
lecting a library for himself, noting
the other day that his shelves dis
closed great vacant spaces, consid
ered the situation. It was not that
he needed new books: it was that
his old volumes had been borrowed
- and not returned. Mr. Stephen
son's confusion was acute. Ho didn’t
remember who had borrowed which
books: he couldn’t think of all his
borrowers, or remember flic titles
of his missing books. How was lie
to reach his public? Being an ad
vertising man he ran true to type.
He inserted little ads in a news
paper. Books began to come in five
at a time. Some be had forgotten
lie owned came back. Each post
brought him old friends.
The result is that Mr. Stephenson
is convinced that book borrowers
are honest. His discovery Is of an
tconclastic age. When book borrow
ers will return books of (heir own
volition, honesty still is triumphant
and faith in human nature survives.
We salute the book borrowers of
Kansas City.
