A SUGGESTION
F YOU would fli the passing

Spread far and wide the good
news that you hear
your neighbor's virtues,

if some bit of gossip you

Let It be of some kindness he has

Or of some honor high that he
has won,
And ere the day shall pass into

You'll ind the flying minutes all

And when the sunset glows out

And you shall come into the vales

Why do our fingers and toes all

do some men stop growing at five feet

These questions have so far had but
one answer. Growth of the body be
gins, goes on and stops, because it is
“natural.”
Dr. Alexis Carrel of the Rockefeller
institute has been trying to find why
growth begins and why it stops,
Twelve years ago, he put a bit of the
heart muscle of an unhatched chick in
a test tube and, by keeping it at a
fixed temperature and feeding it with
chicken blood serum, he has kept it
not only alive but growing ever since.
Doctor Carrel hag found by many
experiments that the white blood cor
puscles and the glands produce cer
tain substances which he calls feed
ers. This substance stimulates growth,
If it is plentiful, the Individual grows
large; If scanty, he grows little
If it is absent, he doesn't grow at all
The younger the cells, the greater the
ammount of this substance produced, As
the cells grow older, this decreases in
amount. Another substance in the
serum has just the opposite effect. It
checks growth, There Is Httle of It in
