A STRONG MIND AND
BODY BEST FOR ALL
“Lindbergh’s feat of crossing the
Atlantic will go down in history as
one of the greatest adventures of all
time. And while the nation univer-
sally acclaims him a hero he persists
tin his fascinating modesty and in the
luse of “we”, said Dr. Theo. B. Appel,
secretary of health, this week.
“Lindbergh knows full well that
the strong.mind in the strong body
was the guiding force of his epic
achievement; and as an inspirational
lesson in the advantages of clean and
sane living habits it stands perhaps
without a parallel for the youth of
today.
“But Lindbergh has not forgotten

health for the past year. He was born
"THE PATTON COURIER
Island and set him down at Le Bour-
get, a world figure, Hence the logic,
‘we.
“Unlike the hero of the hour the
average person does not recognize the
absolute partnership existing between
him and his motor—the heart. And
calamity sometimes results.
“Indeed, the situation is assuming
rather important and alarming pro-
portions. For the forgotten heart ,re-
ceiving no attention, and in thousands
of instances being subjected daily to
harm, resents this carelessness—and
flops.
“Therefore, take all the credit you
feel like taking for your achievements
—your heart will not be insulted if
you do not use the impersonal ‘we’
when referring to it and yourself. But
let your oversight be one of grammar
only.
“Remember that everything you do,
in the last analysis, rests on the pro-
per functioning of that marvelous
piece of mechanism within your chest.
Give it a square deal. Which means,
do not habitually over-exercise it. Do
not over drug it with coffee and to-
bacco. Give it sufficient rest each
day. See wo it that it is daily sus-
INQUIRIES
Sometimes my readers write me
asking about little things not made
clear in my letters to this paper—
I thank them for the indirect con
fidence——sometimes for criticism
indulged. I cannot, of course, un-
dertake the treatment of diseases
by mail; have all I can do at home;
but, a self-addressed, stamped en-
velope will bring an immediate
reply from me, in the interest of
good newspaper service.
I have been asked recently what
foods are most likely to make a
“lazy” liver worse. Sometimes a
lazy liver is an over-loaded, tire l
liver, not a lazy one. Hence I reply
that, an overload of any kind of
food will aggravate an over-loaded
liver—fruits being the least harm-
ful. The specific article of diet
that I forbid, when dealing with
an engorged liver is, starch, in its
many forms, such as boiled or
mashed potatoes, dry beans, white
bread, and the like. The liver func-
tions largely as a starch-transform-
er, and cannot do more than it is
able to do.
One writer remonstrates—that
fats work harm in “liver troubles”;
referring to animal fats, I suppose.
I have forbidden all meat-fats in
gall-bladder conditions, but these
are not “liver-troubles.” Fat meats
are not good in gall-bladder infec-
tions; dairy fats, butter, cream &c.
in small quantity, do much less,
if any harm. And, the vegetable
oils, olive oil particularly have a
reputation for being beneficial,
among the older clinicians.
Every liver case is a law unto
itself, and should be referred to the
family physician, whether acute,
subacute, or chronic. Especially
after forty-five should all suspicion
of liver disease be investigated. A
stitch in time may save several
yards of catgut.

tained with the proper amount of
nourishing food.
“The national increase in heart dis-
ease in 1926 over 1926 was 5.7 per
cent. This tells its own story. Ty=-
phoid fever, diphtheria, and tubercul-
osis are being conquered. They can
in great measure be controlled thro-
ugh public health measures. But the
hear tand its condition are vitally
personal matters. You and you alone
are usually responsible for its de-
fects.
“Your life is a lone flight—like
Lindbergh’s, Don’t forget the ‘we’.
Sail on to a ripe old age. Barring ac-
CE
