Women will know, .
This to be Truel

Haven't you found this to be trus---that one bateh of. flour will

give you certain results but that the next time you bought the

same brand your resulta would be quite different. Now, the.

big flour companies employ chemists to see that their flours

pen are kept to a constant standard. Drugs, like flours, may be
Poa thoroughly pure but of a variable standard, Think what this
| means in the effectiveness of your doctor's prescreptions. .

Ormes buy their drugs only from’ manufacturers ~
who guarantee that their products are not only 100
per cent, pure, but that their strength is as unvary-
ing as the daily round of the sun. -

‘LIFE EXTEN SION

During the past fifty years, fifteen
yeurs have been added to the life ex-
pectancy of each new-born infant. This

‘thas come about chiefly because ‘the

prevention und treatment to acute in-
fectious disease has been used.
. The acute communicable diseases,
such as mensles , diphtheria, typhoid
ferer and scarlet fever, ate diseases

‘jof enrly -life. It is generally known

that they are. communicable and dan-
gerous. It is agreed that they should
be placed undér the control of health
nuthorities and that they are a state
of responsibility. Other acute infectious
Giseuses, such as the summer diarrhoea
of infituts, are being Successfully com-
batted.

As i result of modern health ‘work
many more people live to reach fifty
yeurs of age, but those arriving at the
age of fifty have not any greater ex-

[pectancy of life than had those of the

_We received a carload of the ;

same age during the past few ‘decades
In later life, the individual is thé
victim, not so much of acute diseases
but what are called the chronic deg-
enernte diseases. These latter are the
result of the primative wearing ‘out
or breaking-down of one or more Parts
of the body.

In later life also there are infections
These infections are not acute as’ in
early life, but they are chronic.. They
are dangerous because they are in-
sidious in‘ their origin, hidden and dif-
ficult to recognize. They do not des-
troy life by reason of the damage
they do at the point where they exist,
but by the damgge done to parts dis-
tant from this point, through the poi-
son they pour into the blood stream.
Absessed teeth and infected tonsils
are such dangerous foci of infection.
Carried for years with little or no

- }discomfort, they are continually poison-

ing the blood straem and, sooner or
later, they eause damage to the heart
blood vessels, kidneys or other organs.
If the human life after fifty is to
be prolonged, such foci of infection
must be discovered and removed. The
Periodic Health Sxamination offers
the practical means ‘for doing this. |

-Questions concerning healto nd-
dressed to the Canadian Medicat Asso-
ciation, 184: College St, Torenta, will
be ‘answered. Questions aa to diag-
nesis and treatment will not be ans-
swered.
