BECAUSE OF CONVENTION mDNEY TROUBLE \VRITER TELLS OF ORGANIZED STU- PlDl'l‘Y IN ENGLAND. .â€" Thcre Are No Original Ideas in Any Departmentâ€"Medical Profes- sion Scored. "Conventionalism is the main cause of our national degeneration, and con- ventionalism is merely another name for organize] stupidity by the repres‘ sion of originality. It is a sort of red- lapeisln which prrvades every depart- ment of national life." Such was the pronouncement. made to the Daily Mirror by one of London‘s leading medical men. “Great Britain has been beaten.“ he said, “at football, tennis, golf, rowing and shooting by other countries, and in her manners, morality, religion. law, medicine, and dress she is fast drop- ping behind all other nations. “Take shooting, for instance. The military authorities have just discovered that a right-handed man is usually left- cyed. Conventionalism says ‘shoot from the right. shoulder;’ common sense says the opposite. “Look at the telephone companies. They put the receivers on the left-hand side, when most people are rightâ€"cared. Conventionality again. It is done to-day because it is always been done that way. “Take handwriting. Everybody who writes a free, quick and useful hand helds his pen or pencil quite differently from the conventional style taught in schools. ' "But there Is no department of nation- al life where conventionalism is so rampant as In the medical profession. “I say in all seriousness that. the enormous death-rate among children and the unhygienic condition of our people is duc'to this. Doctors meet to- gether and read learned papers to one another. and these are afterwards pub- lished in papers which no layman sees. ALL BECAUSE OF CONVENTION. “The traditions of the old mystery- mongcring doctor have been kept up too long. And yet. a man who displays a little originality is condemned and os- traeised because he despises convention. “Our teachers are incompetent. The man who lectures on physical degenera- tion is not strong enough to swing a cat. “The muscular development expert is a puny fourâ€"foot. man, with a flat chest and broomstick legs, and the diet spe- cialist looks as though a good square meal would be the salvation of him. “And all because of convention. America, Germany, and our colonies throw ever conventions and beat us all along the line. When are we going to get rid of antiquated ideas ?” .____.xa_.. _ BABY’S DANGER. More little lives are lost during the hot weather months than at any other time of the year. In the summer months little ones are the victims of diarrhoea, cholera infantum, dysentry and stomach troubles. These come sud- denly and without. warning, and when a medicine is not at hand to give promptly the short delay may mean death. During the hot. weather months Baby‘s Own Tablets should to kept in every home where there is a young child. An occasional use of the Tab- lrts will prevent stomach and bowel troubles. Or if the. troubles come un- awares a prompt use of this medicine will bring the child through safely. Mrs. J. llcliard. New Glasgow. Que. says: “I cannot. speak too highly of Baby‘s Own Tablets. One of my chil- dren had a severe attack of diarrhoea which the Tablets promptly cured.” Sold by medicine dealers or by mail at. 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams" Medicine to, Breckville, Ont. â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€">!- INSANI’I‘Y IN BRITAIN.
