HUMAN LIFE.

HOW LONG A MAN CAN INCREASE

HIS LONGEVITY?

Dr. S S. Gullwater, Director of Maint Sinai Hospital, and a well-known physician in America, was askel bow long a human being shall be able to live given the best. conditions

"We physicians," he told Charles W. Wood, who writes in the subject in th New York World, consider ourselves soien tists and scientists are not inclined to indulge in guessing about things careerning which we have no data."

No data."

"Almost "no data he repeate L Human society hasn't shown much in- terest as yet in the question of health and long life.

"We have been interested in the tooth- ache, and we've develops!" dentistry. We have bean interested in Groken bones, and e have developed surgery. And we have been occasionally interested in plagues and epidemies and have developed bacteriology and sanitation.

"All these things luve, incidentally, in- creased the span of life; but we cannot attempt to estimate bow long the human animal can be expected to live until a sufficiently large group is once organised" to make the experiment

PHYSICIAN OF THE FUTURE

"The physician of the future," Dr. Gold- water continued, "will become less and less a disease speciaist and more and more a health specialist. He will be a health organier. His business will consist, not so mach of treating the sick as of keeping people well,"

This physican of the future, he pointed out, is ally here. We may call him a medical adviser, but his chief duties, nevertheless, are not with disease, but with health and strengtly

He isn't summoned only when the patient has been stricken with some disease. It is his business to see that the patient is not stricken with disease. It is his business to see that the patient is in such physical trim that average disease germs would pass him by as almost hopelessly well.............

health

Industrial efficiency demands this and far-seeing employers are fast introducing supervision into their establishments. Good citizenship likewise demands it: cities have learned that they must clean up the slams or they in turn will poison the whole community.

"The Labour Uhions in many instances are pioneering in the work; they are es tablishing their medical and dental clinics, and insisting upon higher and higher stan dards in the matters of sun-light, air, and sanitation.

The logical next step--and it is a step which is already being taken-is the ex- tention of the work of the health advisor in private practice Eventually the health practitioner will play as great a part in our social life as does the family phy- sician to-day."

EMPLOYED BY EVERYBODY.

"" that "But do you suppose," I asked, the time will ever come when practically, everybody will employ the services of the health practitioners 1

"Why not?" asked Dr. Goldwater. "Can you think of anything, that is more important than health Everybody em- pluys the services of the farmer

the

the carpenter, and the plumber, although everybody may not be conscious of it. But health is the greatest invest- ment that can be made."

How many years." I asked again, is it reasonable to expect that man might live?

There is no telling," he repeated.

"Man may live just as long as he can keep renew-. ing the healthy tissues of his body, so long as she can successfully expel all the toxins. avoid disease sad injury, and replace promptly the wasted substance of each worn- out cell.

"Setting any particular limit, in "our present state of ignorance, seems to me quite unscientific. If the medical profession once applies itself to the task of extending huna life, there is no reason to doubt that its achievements will startle the world."

EVERY-DAY MIRACLES.

"Every day in our hospitals we perform miracles of surgery which a few years ago would have been thoughts impossible.. In the matter of disease also we are not only caring the supposedly incurable, but are from maneliminating some discases

con.

But the curricula of the schools must inevitably be changed, and in my opinion the change should come immediately. The central idea of the physician's training should be health not disease.

"After graduation words will go into the hospitals and specialise in medicine and surgery, but others will go into the health centre and the clinic and specialise in the physical, mental, and psychic perfection of buman life."

Mr. Galsworthy, in replying to "The Boller Makers, Founders and Constructional Engineers and Repairers Visitors," said that it was a great pity that nations did not known each other better. The peoples of Europe were like Englishmen travelling in a first-class rail way compartment. It took an accident to make them even look at each other, and before they had fallen into conversation the carriage must have been set on fire. (Laughter.).
