LAWS OF HEALTH
PEOPLE WRONGLY TAUGHT AND FED “NO RIGHT TO BE ILL"’ Bt Telegraph.—Press association, COPI’UIGHT. London, January 21. “Women, though so charming and useful, arc really the cause of all our misery, degradation, and disease, because they first teach us wrong habits and feed us wrongly,” said Sir Arbuthnot Lane at a luncheon of the Soroptimist Club. He added that dark-haired women were unable to resist disease as easily as blondes. On the other hand, redhaired persons had an extraordinary power to resist infection and disease. In England they were always trying to collect money for hospitals, which consisted of smelly out-patients’ departments and an operating theatre where poor people were operated on and dosed with drugs. The money thus collected should be spent in teaching everybody the simple laws of health. People had no more right to be ill than to be crim- ’ ittals.
