BATTLE LOST THROUGH
LACK OF ENDURANCE
In th# parly part of the recent world
war the British decided to attempt the
capture of Constantinople, which, with
Its natural surroundings and added
fortifications, was one of the strong
est fortified places In the whole world.
To effect its capture would in a large
measure eliminate the Turks from the
conflict and would open a gate for
file transportation of the Russian
troops for service on the Western
front Under the cover of a heavy
attack by the British fleet, despite
the many mines brought down among
the battleships by the swift current
of the Dardanelles, their transports
landed a large force on the Gallipoli
peninsular for a joint attack hy land.
Several days of desperate fighting
took place with minor successes. Fin
ally the Rritish decided to give up the
attack and withdrew. It was learn
ed later that had the British contin
ued their attack one hour longer the
Turkish forces would have been
forced to evacuate and surrender the
stronghold, in that all their available
ammunition would have been exhaust
ed by that time. One hour more of
endurance on the part of the British
would have brought the coveted prize
into their hands.
This point is again illustrated in the
decisive battle of Waterloo. The Brit
ish under Wellington had the neces
sary endurance to withstand the fierce
attacks of the French until Blucher
could come to their rescue with his
twenty thousand Prussians. The re
sult is well known. 'This endurance
of the British resulted in the com
plete defeat of probably the greatest
military leader in all history, Napol
eon.
Someone has said that life is a bat
tle from the cradle to the grave. We
are constantly carrying on a warfare
with our small, but numerous and
powerful enemies, disease germs,
meeting with success or reverses just
as our endurance is sufficient or in
sufficient to withstand their attacks.
In the warfare of nations the enemy
is usually visible. In the warfare
which disease germs wage against the
human body, our enemies are unseen.
Many times we know nothing of their
presence, until they have launched a
heavy and successful attack against
(jur unsuspecting lines. It is then nec
essary to call to our rescue the rein
forcements of medical skill in order
to drive them out and restore our
outermost lines of health.
Disease germs such as those of
colds, pneumonia, tuberculosis are al
ways lurking in the respiratory tract
only waiting a lowering of our resist
ance In order to make a successful
attack. Other germs, such as thoso
causing typhoid fever, diphtheria and
the so-called social diseases gonorrhea
and syphilis only await us exposing
ourselves to them. Medical science
has blessed humanity in finding cures
lor the great majority of diseases. It
has also found means for the pre
Vention of a great many of them. It
Is up to you to choose whether you
prefer the ounce of prevention or the
pound of cure.
Your State Board of Health assists
In any way it can to bring about the
cure of disease, in helping your phy
sician to make a diagnosis of the di
sease in order to enable him to ad
minister such treatment that Is det
rimental to that particular germ or
group of germs causing the disease.
Its greatest service, however, to the
people lies in the prevention of di
sease. For instance, they will furnish
to you typhoid vaccine, which your
.family physician will administer,
.“causes no loss of time from your work
•and protects you against typhoid fever
for two or three years. This protec
tion is not in the experimental stage,
but is a fact long since proved.
Ask yourself this question: Is It
better to take the typhoid vaccine
,jvith the little, if any, inconvenience
Indigestion
Many persons, otherwise
vigorous and healthy, are
bothered occasionally with
Indigestion. The effects of a
disordered stomach on the
system are dangerous, and
prompt treatment of Indiges

been something to aid diges

The Pneumonia Month.
March is a typical pneumonia month
and usually gives a hign rate of mor
tality for the disease. After a long
and hard winter, the system loses
much of its resistance and people grow
careless. When every cold, no matter
how slight, is given prompt and intel
ligent attention, there is much less
danger of pneumonia. It should be
borne in mind that pneumonia is a
germ disease and breeds in the throat.
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is an
expectorant anil cleans out the germ
ladeued mucous and not only cures a
cold but prevents its resulting iu penu
monia. It is pleasant to take. Chil
dren take it willingly.
