and which contains Four Great Treasures
By BRUCE BARTON
TEN FAMOUS WOMEN
THE same letter which invited ten
thousand preachers to name the ton
greatest men in the Bible asked also
for a list of ten famous women. Sev-
enty-four names received votes, and
the following ten are selected from
among the highest, and are arranged
not in the order of their popularity
but in their chronological sequence.
1. Ese, “the mother of all living.”
2. Ruth (who had the highest vote
next to Mary, the mother of Jesus.)
3. Hannah the devoted mother.
4. The one woman whom the Bible
calls great.
5. Esther, the beautiful queen.

SUBSISTENCE . . . and future
A young newspaper man w|om ab-
ility and frugality I have admired for
some time dropped into my office the
other day to tell me that he had solved
the problem of his future and that of
his family. He was out of a job, a
year ago, for tjjree weeks, and that
experience set him thinking about
economic security_
He has bought a little farm in New
Jersey, two hours out from New York
by train or motor, three miles from a
good market town Five and a half
acres with a tight, four-room hou *,
good barn chicken house and pigpen, .»
running, brook, an acre and a half of
woodlot and 35 apple trees cost him
exactly $1,000. He was raised
farm and his wife a* not afraid of
work.
“We can live there the year around,
he said,” and save most of what I
earn. And if 1 lose my rob again, we
can subsist there until 1 get another
break. I'm taking no more chances on
tjje future of my children.”
That is only one of hundreds I have
heard of who are t eking the same
kind of security. It is the only real
security there is, to own a piece of
land out of which one can, at a pincty,
dig a living.

desired to make one wise she took of j
the fruit thereof and did eat and gave
also to her husband.
So much for the Eve whom every-
body knows the Eve of the Garden
anti the transgression. We shall not
linger with her. It is with Eve the
girl with an unhappy memory and the
swift disillusionment going forth with
the young man she loved and making
a home “east of Eden,” whom we
should like to know better.
There in the backwoods is heard the
lullaby of thi.s primitive Madonna,
ringing the song that all mothers have
sung:
“I have gotten a man
From the Lord.”
She knows '.very well that the child
is Adam’s eon, this child, this miracle
of little pink toes and tiny hands that
Jiave such a terrible clutch at
hair and heartstinge.
That is the theme of all cradle
songs. Eve set the mothers of the
world to singing. She did wrong, in
that apple affair. But ae a result of
it she and Adam were no longer pen-
sioners; they were working to pay off
the mortgage. And waren’t they hap-
pier isn’t the whole race happier, in
this bustling and chaotic world than if
they had stayed in Eden ?
I sometimes wonder how much Eve
really regretted!

FEVER.....undercontrol
It is only within a few years that
th* full realization has come to the
medical world that a fever is Nature s
attempt to overcome some infection
inside the body. If the fever gets too
high, however, the patient usually
dies, because of the effect of the high
temperature upon (vital organs that
are not infected.
How to induce a fever high enough
to kill off the germs of infection, and
still not endanger the patients’s life,
is a problem with which medical ex-
perimenters have been wrestling for
several years_ It was discovered that
malarial fever would cure certain
forms of insanity, but that was using
one disease to cure another. Then the
discovery was made that a fever could
be induced by short radio waves, ar>o
that method is now widely used in the
treatment of insanity pneumonia and
some other diseases.
The latest use of artificial fevers
is the “fever box” at the Ford hospital
in which patients are placed. Marked
improvement in most cases, some ac-
tual cures, are reported.
When I think back and recall how
little the wisest medical men knew 4n
years ago, when I was a medical stud-
ent, and how far the effort to conquer
disea. e has got since then I fe«d renew-
ed confidence that mankind will ul-
timately master all of the enemies

who are now buying seed, fertiliser*, and other supplies. The bill will
be a boost for American industry, since the Farm Credit Admlnia
