Why "Comptroller" la Used Instead ot i
the Correct "Controller."
It is till old story, muuy times told,
thnt tlie scriveners centuries ago. igno-
rant of Latin, but having heard that in
French "compter" means to count and
assuming thnt as the controller has to
do with money he must of course,
count money, wedged the false and
perverting letter "p" with an "m" be-
fore it into a perfectly good and cor
rectly formed word.
In lnte Latin the word is "contraro-
tulator." The keeper of the king's foils,
the payroll and other accounts, was the
'rotulator." To guard against the pos-
sible dishonesty of that official the
king appointed an auditor to check up
his accounts and called him the "con
(rarotulator"—that is, the counter roll
keeper. From "contrarotulator" the
word has come Into modern languages,
always without the offending "p."
In French, Spanish, Italian, German
and Russian we have the word "con-
trol," meaning the keeping or auditing
of accounts, and the title of the officer
In those languages is spelled always
without the "in" and the "p." When

If everything was sold in as liberal and

cause for complaint or dissatisfaction
could possibly arise from anyone. These
druggists say—"Buy a botMe of this rem-

Cough, Severe Cough, Croup or any
Bronchial Affection, and we will return
your money, just the same as we do with
Schiffmann's famous Asthmador, if it
does not give satisfaction, or if not found
the best remedy ever used for any of
these complaints." Why not take ad-

exaggerated claims of its manufacturer
or on the strength of testimonials from
others and run the chance of getting
something worthless and also wasting

In buying this remedy, besides secur-
ing an absolute guarantee of its efficiency
from these druggists, you also get about
eight times as much medicine as you
would in buying most any of the old-
fashioned, ready-made kinds, which aver-
age from 20 to 32 teaspoonsful, because
50c worth makes a whole pint (128 tea-
spoonsful) when mixed at home with
simply one pint of sugar and one-half pint
of water. This remedy positively does
not contain chloroform, opium, morphine
or any other narcotic. It is pleasant to take
and children are fond of it. You will be
the sole judge, and under this positive
guarantee absolutely no risk is run in buy-
ing this remedy. Druggists everywhere
are authorized to sell it under the same
guarantee as Schiffmann's famous Asth-
mador of "Money Back" if not perfectly

It has been said that "Health ie
man's birthright, that it is as natural
to be well as to be born," and that j
from ignorance and transgressions of j
physiologic and hygiene laws arise j
most diseases and tendency to dis- j
ease.
Yet today so slow has been recog-1
nition of the importance of instruc-:
tion in the fundamental principles of |
applied physiology as a means of j
complete living, that a ' thoroughly
weli person after middle life is the j
exception in an'y community.
On every side we find chronic
complaint, physical weakness, wear-
iness and overwhejming gloom,
which might have been prevented by
proper timely instructions. It was
first believed that disease was a dis-
pleasure of God. Education, how-
ever, has taught us it is due to our
disregard and ignorance of the laws
of health, therefore, we have come
to the belief that the civilization of
a nation may be measured by its
standard of health.
Our ' government has conserved
about everything in our country ex-
cept human health. It conserves the
streams, its lands, its forests, and
its animals, hut man. for whom all
of these things should be conserved,
is neglected or left for the la®t con-
sideration.
It is an inconceivable fact that in
the United States 1.500,000 people are
constantly ill with preventable dis-
eases. which means a monetary loss
of millions of dollars annually. Fur-
thermore, that a large percentage of
all of those who die are destroyed by
preventable diseases.
The important problem which con-
fronts us, therefore, is how this
dradftil and needless loss o( life and
property may be prevented in our
country.
A great health movement is sweep-
ing over the entire world. Hygiene
has repudiated the out-worn doc-
trine that mortality is faljality, and
must exact year after year fixed and
inevitable sacrifice. It aims instead
to set free human life by applying
modern science. Science which has
revolutionized every other field of
human endeavor is at last revolu-
tionizing the field of health conser
ration.
The practice of medicine, which
for ages has been known as the
"healing art," is undergoing a grad-
ual but radical change. This is due
to the growing realization that
ounce of prevention is worth a pound
of cure, and physicians are finding
fields for practicing preventive medi-
clne.
furthermore, tiie preventive meth
oils of modern medicine are being
applied by the people themselves
witness the great vogue today of
sleeping out of doors; the popularity
of health foods and drinks; the dt
mand for uncontaminated water sup-
plies. certified milk, inspocted meat
and pure foods generally; the world
wide movement against alcohol, and
the legislation to correct wrong con
ditions of labor, and to safeguard the
laborer.
On« of the most satisfying tasks
for any man or woman today is to
take part in this movement toward
truer Ideals ot perfect manhood or
womanhood.
Our American ideals, though inv
proving ,are far inferior to those of
Sweden or of Ancient Greece, and
with our superior scientific knowl
edge our health ideias ought, as
matter of fact, to excel those of any
other age.
All cities have city departments of
health which look after the health
of their respective municipalities.
All state® have state boards of health
who exercise all of their activities
for the.prevention of the illness and i
death _of tehir citizens. Why should
not ou.r national government have a
department of public health having
for its object the physical welfare of
its people and their protection from
preventable diseases?
