"In spite of the pain nnd Incon venience accompanying it, the major ity of my gouty patients arc Inclined to be proud of their affliction. I look upon the poularity of the disease as the result of Its associations. An cient Greek physicians of the four teenth century were the first to uso tho term 'gout,' and they attributed the disease to overindulgence and luxury. In tho works of tho early Greek writers the word Is lrequontly used, particularly In Ovid and Pliny, and Seneca In his ninety-fifth epistle mentions the prevalence of gout among the Roman ladles of his day as one of the results of high living. Sir Thomas Watson says: 'Tho In stances arc not few of men of good sense nnd masters of thomselve3. who, being warned by one visitation of the gout, have thenceforward resolutely abstained from rich living and from wine and strong diinks of all kinds, and who have been rewarded for their prudence and self-denial by complete Immunity from any return ace for the Laurel I iiw ii mmi wmmmnmm numtm tmm in w imw mi iwiiiiiihwwiwii i The two laurel wreaths sat awlnglng Idly by the roadside that led to tho house of fame.

'You have tho gout, old fellow! Been treating yourself too well, oh?'

A doctor explains the matter thus: The hair Df tho red headed Is relatively thick, one rod hair being almost as thick as live fair or three brown hair3. With lill.OUU red hairs the scalp is well thatched, whereas with tho same number of fair hairs, ono is compar atively bald. It takes noarly lfiO.OOO fair and lOfi.000 brown hairs to cover adequately an ordinary head. Gtt the Right Kind. Gainesville, Texas, Keb. l2nd. Mrs. L. K.
