DUCTLE8S GLANDS.
In a general way what may ho said
cf nny singlo ductless gland may in a
largo measuro bo said of them all.
Their functions aro mainly two. First,
by reason of cither individual or co
operative secretions thoy govern tho
metabolism in the body. Second,
theso same secretions build up and
maintain the body's resistance to dis
ease by cleansing tho blood of tho
different poisons which it accumu
lates in Its current from tlmo to time.
It is believed that tho internal gland
secretions whet tho appetito of tho
white blood corpuscles, or leucocytes,
tho body's germ destroyer, as a step
in this protective plan.
Tho bloehomlc sails involved In tho
breaking down (katabollc) and tho
building up (anabolic) processes of
tho body; tho 16, and perhaps more,
mineral clments existing in organic
or living form in tho universe and re
quired to maintain tho metabolism of
all the cells of tho human body, aro
governed, regulated and controlled by
tho ductlcsB glands. This, of couso,
is a reciprocal reaction, becauso
obviously thero must bo something to
govern if tho glands aro to function,
and it Is equally obvious that tho
glands cannot function in tho absence
of thesQ elements or minerals. Thero
being no ducts leading into these
glands, lit is very clear that nothing
can get either into or out of them
except by means of the blood stream.
Hence, tho profound physical and men
tal disturbance following any disar
rangement In tho natural or physiolog
ical food supply.
Tho largest of the ductless glands is
tho thyroid, situated in tho foro part
of tho neck, midway between the
"Adam's apple" (thyroid cartilage)
and tho top of tho breastbone (stern
um), a point just behind where tho
average man wears his collar button.
Tho gland comprises two sections, or
lobes, ono lying on either sido of
tho windpipe (larynx), connected by
a neck, or Isthmus, tho wholo forming
a flat, oval body about three Inches
long.
Became tho general shape suggests
a long, oval, shield, tho namo "thy
roid" was taken from tho Greek lan
guage it means, literally, Bhleldllke.
The thyroid gland is reddish-brown
in color and has a vesicular structure
that is to say, tho interior is honey
combed with minute sacs like the in
terior of an orango, each tiny bladder
of which under normal conditions is
filled' with a yellow gluollke compound
known as "colloid," a substance dif
fusing not at all, or very slowly,
through animal membranes. Acces
sory thyroids, varying in size and num
ber, may be found along tho lower
windpipe (trachea) from the larynx
as far down as tho heart These ac
cessories possess the same vesicular
structure and aro supposed to have
a function similar to that of tho thy
roid body.
There are sovoral highly significant
facts in connection with ,tho general
structure and composition of tho thy
roid body that It is advlsablo to keep
constantly in mind while considering
this subject Throughout the whole
range of animal and vegetable life the
catalytic enzymes, or ferments, are
constantly busy. They are vitally
and fundamentally concerned with life
in all its phases, so much so that phys
iology is rapidly resolving Itself into
a branch of catalysis. So many cata
lytic agents aro "colloids" and the
colloidal condition Is so tangled up
with catalytic action, ferments and en
zymes, it is practically impossible, in
our present state of knowledge, to
distinguish ono from tho other. It
should bo remembered, too, that all
kinds of metals and compounds of
metals have this powerful catalytic
"presence," tho potency of which may
bo so high that In many Instances tho
proportion of but one part to the
thirteenth decimal point will bring
about astonishing reactions, mean
time, the catalyzing substance itself
being quite unaffected by its remark
ablo exertions; it remains as potent
as over and may bo used over and
over again.
No other gland, largo or small, re
ceives proportionally so great and di
rect a supply of blood as tho thyroid.
All theso facts considered together
are sufficient to warrant us in accept
ing the thyroid as a most Important
organ and should also prepare us to
oxpoct very grave physical results
from any disturbance of Its functions.
Snugly tucked away behind the thy
roid, two of them on either sido of
tho larynx and often actually imbed
ded in the tissue of that gland, aro
four small bodies known as the "par
athyroids." Tho adrenal glands take thoir namo
from tho kidney; "ad" meaning addi
tion, or proximity to, and "renal" be
ing another namo for kidney. Theso
two additional kidney glands aro flat,
lima bean shaped bodies, each about
ono and one-half inches long, and they
lie in intimate relation with and at tho
top of each kidney. It is believed
both tho inner (medullary) and tho
outer (cortical) parts of tho adrenal
glands make contributions to tho
blood stream. Tho absenco of this
medullary secretion produces a fall
In blood presBuro which is fatal.
Suspended by a short stalk from tho
under surface of tho brain hangs an
other of theso poallko bodies, or baby
glands. Tho early students of physi
ology believed this gland prepared
phlegm 6r mucus for tho moistening
of tho membrano of tho nose, and thoy
therefore called it tho "pituitary,"
Kbich means tho phlegm former. Tho
t :
8 Healths
I-
pituitary body (hypophysis) consists
of two parts, a largo anterior lobo
of distinct glandular tissue and a
much smallor posterior lobo of nerv
oub origin compoBod chiefly of nervo
colls and fibers. Resting in a llttlo
bony doprosslon In tho baso of ono's
skull, this tiny body prepares and
sends out secretions and nervo im
pulses profoundly influencing us for
good or ovil.
Among all this complicated mazo
of action and re-action wo aro perhaps
best familiar with tho action of tho
thyroid gland, and no adequato ex
planation has yet been furnished of
tho influenco exorcised by tho thyroid
on tho nutrition of tho body. Wo havo
Indisputable proof that dlsturbanco
in thyroid function induces character
istic symptoms covering practically
tho cntiro rnngo of human affliction,
and that theso disturbances in glandu
lar functions nro gravely influenced
by our cholco of food matter. It is
porfectly obvious that this must bo
so in vlow of tho facts above set forth,
and equally clear that Funk's state
ment that the vitamlncs, thoso vital
nitrogenous principles in combination
with tho organic minerals, aro tho
mother substanco of, tho ductless gland
internal secretions on which our de
velopment, life and health depend, and
of which wo nro largely doprived
through tho stupid commercial spirit
of tho age.
INTERNAL SECRETIONS.
Wo find running all through tho his
tory of tho development of tho theory
of combating disease n slowly evolv
ing chain of ideas revolving around
tho primitive belief of the savago that
eating tho heart of his victim impart
ed to him tho courage and vitality of
his enemy.
Tills idea has given riso from tlmo
to tlmo to various mothods of organ
otheraphy, all of which have failed to
bo effoctivo, but which havo been valu
able becauso they havo sorved as stops
toward a conception of tho idea that
certain glandular organs glvo riso to
chemical products which on entering
tho circulation influenco tho activity
of ono or more othor organs. Tho term
"internal secretions" Is used to deslg
nato theso products.
Claude Bernard appears to havo
been the first to employ this term to
distinguish botween tho ordinary or
external secretions and these intornal
secretions. Tho belief that tho secre
tory products wero given off In this
way had long been held in referenco to
the ductless glands, and this belief
was perfectly logical becauso tho ab
sence of any duct naturally suggested
such a possibility; but there was prac
tically no interest in tho mnttor of
tho internal secretions until reports of
tho work of Brown-Sequard upon tes
ticular extracts wero published prior
to 1800. This investigator assumed
that all tissues givo off something to
tho blood which is characteristic and
is of importanco in general nutrition.
Tho idea was taken up widely and it
led to a strong revival of tho old no
tions regarding tho treatment of dis
eases of tho different organs by ex
tracts of the corresponding tissues,
but no extract was found to be of any
advantage In treating tho troubles of
the organs from which they wero
made.
Obviously, vital elements can bo ex
pected to flow only from live that is
to say, from functioning organisms.
It is not reasonablo to expect more
than temporary results from tho non
living. However, while Brown-So-quard's
idea was not found to bo
justified by subsequent work, it led
to Investigation and the development
of tho methods necessary to demon
state that not only tho ductless glands
but some of the typical glands pro
vided with ducts for external secre
tions glvo rise also to internal secre
tions, the pancreas and tho liver being
examples in point.
Wo havo in our bodies ten or a
dozen ductless glands which, as In
vestigations have demonstrated, play
a part of enormous Importanco in our
general nutrition.
The principal ductless glands ara
tho thyroid, parathyroid, suprarenal,
thymus, pituitary, pineal, carotid and
cooygeai. In some of these the exist
ence or tho non-existenco of an in
tornal secretion is still an open ques
tion, but it is quite safe to assumo
that, inasmuch as nothing can coma
into being without a reason and that
nothing can continue to exist without
a reason, a broader and deepor knowl
edge of tho process of digestion and
of our metabolism in general will
demonstrato these supposedly uboIcbs
organs to be endowed with somo vory
Important function. Tho promiscuous
removal of "useless" organs is less
general than it was and must becomo
less and less as knowledge increases.
Outsido tho ductless glands the idea
of internal sections has recently found
fruitful application in tho study of the
digostlvo secretions, and it has been
clearly demonstrated that tho gastric
and the pancreatic "secretions," and
ports p3 other' secretions from lower
down in tho digestive tract, must ba
regarded as examples of internal secre
tions, and that they must bo reckoned
with In our efforts to securo an under
standing of tho rapidly increasing mor.
tality resulting from those diseases
duo to deranged metabolism.
Chemical products of this kind
which stimulate tho activity of spe
cial organs Sterling has designated as
hormones, from the Greek word which
means "I oxclto," and he suggesto
that theso chemical products may be
regurded ns the original or primitive
means for co-ordinating tho function
ing of the various parts of a complex
organism. In other words, we aro
controlled by what may bo called
liquid nerves acting through our blood
circulation as well as by tho bettor
known co-ordination secured through
tho medium of tho later doveloped
and wonderfully complex norvous
system which wo nre ablo to dissect
out and follow to its point of origin.
This double control, conclusively
demonstrated to bo opcratlvo in all
mammals, is destined to play a revo
lutionary part in oUr ideas ot disease
and of our relationship to tho balance
of organic creation. It opens tho
way to a solution of many of out
vaguo norvous diseases and is a most
omphatlc warning against tho use oj
sophisticated food materials.
CITIES HAVE GREAT FUTURE
Ports on the Coast Dound to Grow
Enormously as the Country'
Wealth Is Developed.
Seattle on Pugot sound in 1913
cleared for foreign trndo ships with
3,068,504 tons tonnage, New York alono
leading it and Now Orlonns coming
third. At tho present time, says tho
Christian Scicnco Monitor, thoro nro
B0 deop-water ships in Scattlo'B har
bor loading for foreign or Atlantic
ports and due to make tho paBaago
through the Panama canal. A con
siderable numerical and high tonnage
proportion of theso vessels aro Amer
ican owned and fly tho stars and
stripes. Thoy Indicate a mounting
volumo of business for tho port and
for tho region of tho country of which
it is ono of tho several doorways to
tho outer world; so that when tho
Htatlstlcs of 11)14 nro compiled the
city's rolattvo rank will not havo
changed. What will he disclosed prob
ably will bo its supremacy on tho Pa
cific coast and its lend over most of
tho Atlantic and Gulf ports.
Tho natural resources of this city
ns a port of entry and of exit wero ex
ceptional prior to dollberato planning
by citizens for their use. Equally bo
wero tho potential stores of wealth
in tho vast hintcrlnnd which tho rail
ways focussing Seattlo tap. But when
tho nation sot about linking tho At
lantic and the Pacific at Panama, and
when tho citizens of Seattlo created
a port commission and began devel
oping the harbor and providing ter
minals then a new day dawned, and
tho results aro now apparent; and not
tho least of tho gain is from growth
of tho port ub a place for transship
ment of goods billed through to Aslat
Ic ports. West-bound cotton and oast
bound silk symbolize a doublo current
that flows in and out and out and in.
And aa for lumber, tho Pacific., slopes
aro under attack to provldo heavy
timber for tho world, now that exports
to tho Atlantic coast and to Europo
have the Panama canal freight rate.
What Is truo of Seattlo also is truo
of Tacoma, Portland and Vancouver.
Seattle's pre-eminence is in degreo and
not in kind. All outlets of this enor
mously rich region of tho North Amer
ican continent aro bound to grow rap
idly under altered conditions of busi
ness, conditioned by tho lnteroceanlo
short cut and by economic changos
following tho present war. Thoy also
will profit by coming development of
Alaskan resources under restrictions
that will insure growth of population
in territory and retention thoro ot a
larger proportion of its wealth, hlth
ortp so largely falling into tho hands
of transients and absentee owners of
properties.
Sunshine and Strawberries.
If ono needs a sea voyage to re
store tho health, go to England. For
real rest a five hours' journoy out of
London to Salcombo, South Devon,
will bring ono to a sunny environ
ment. A correspondent writing from
Salcombo to Tho Lancet, says: "Last
week (I am writing November 23) I
had on my tablo peas, French beans,
globo nrtlchokes, tomatoes and straw
berries fresh from my garden and
grown without any special attention
at all. Tho strawberries have been
our chief dessert for moro than six
weeks now, although tho sumo plants
gave us n splehdld crop in Juno. To
day roses nro flourishing gayly, and
one can scarcely rcallzo tho awful
weather experienced north. Those
fortunate enough to live in houses
sheltered from tho northoast enjoy
warmth and sunshine. Last winter
wo found an aloo In full flower and
bunches of sub-tropical flowers wore
gathered."
Portraiture In Italy.
The Paglno d'Arto, of Milan, of Oc
tober 30, commenting on tho closing
of tho biennial Fine Arts Exhibition in
Venice, says: "As in most modern
Italian picture exhibitions thoro was a
great scarcity of portraits, and tho
question naturally arises as to what
this scarcity may bo attributed to
want or demand? Until thirty years
ago there was an abundanco of good
portrait painters in Itnly, but since
then they seem to bo altogether want
ing. Tho fact that not n single por
trait of artistic value exists in Italy
of either King Humbert and Queen
Margherlta, of tho present King Vlt
torlo and Queen Elena, nor of the last
two popes, the only good present
ments of these royalties being by for
eign artists, seems to point to a scar
city of good portrait painters in Italy."
Gun Without Recoil.
An ofllcor of tho United States navy
has invented a gun that fires a six
pound projectile without rocoll. This
gun, because of its absence of recoil,
is well adapted to use on aeroplanes
or dirigibles.
The gun is most Interesting, having
both ends open to tho atmosphere. Tho
shell has tho projectile tted Into ono
end, and in tho othor end is a mass of
bird-shot. Tho shot is of sufficient
weight to furnish tho required reac
tion when tho projoctllo is discharged
from the other end of tho gun. When
tho gun is fired tho projoctllo is
thrown from tho muzzlo at a high ve
locity while tho shot is discharged
from the brooch at low velocity.
Liver Ills In Varnish.
A now liver disease caused by a
quick-drying varnish, nnd to which
varulshers and polishers may be sub
ject, was discovered at London, Eng
iand, by Dr. Bernard Spllsbury and Dr.
Wilcox, tho eminent pathologists, in

been employed at tho Hcndon aircraft
