Leaving It To Eugenics By FREDERICK J. HASKIN

NEW YORK. March 19. Free advice in the matter of choosing wives and husbands is .soon to be available in Vienna for people who wish to observe the principles of eugenics, according to a news report recently received from that city. Vienna has lately had occasion to bealarmed at the large sums which the municipality has had to spend on treatment for children born idiots; and Dr. Tandler, the chief . sanitary officer, has decided to introduce this prematrimonial service as a sort of hopeful experiment. "You cannot prevent people from having children," says Dr. Tandler, "by merely imposing . conditions of marriage any more than you can make many people pay taxes if they are really determined to evade them. You must cultivate a sense of responsibility in the individual. .1 propose, therefore, merely to give people an opportunity of consulting a doctor gratis before they are married. In the future there will be a municipal consultant on wedlock who will be a doctor with a good knowledge ' of human nature over and above hia medical 'qualifica tions. He will simply tell the people the truth about themselves and the prospects for their children if they marry. The aim of the institution will be to educate the public to a point where it will be a matter of common sense to consult a doctor before marriage." . The rendering of scientific opinions to young couples contemplating marriage as to the probable characteristics of their offspring, as well as the establishment of parentage in' cases of disputed legitimacy, are among the new practical uses of eugenics. AVe already have a well known Eugenics Record Office at Cdld Spring Harbor in this country, under the direction ot Dr. Charles B. Davenport, leader of the eugenics movement over here, which supplies advice similar to that proposed for "the citizens of Vienna. Such advice is more in demand .than might be expected, and many romances have been blighted or aided ;by the coldly scientific analyses of eugenics experts conected with the Davenport laboratory. , More Serious Views Certain 'Eventually there will come a widespread realization of the importance of heredity in marriage," Says Dr. Davenport. "Young persons to whom marriage is so serious a matter will be led to stop and consider when they feel they are falling in love, and inquire concerning consequences to offspring. "Already there is being developed a well defined conscience in the matter of cousin marriages, for example, and of the matings into families of grossly defective members. This is shown by the extensive correspondence that the Eugenics Office has been obliged to enter into with per sons who are contemplating marriage. "They are quite willing to submit an extensive account of their family traits, and they write to learn what is known about the inheritance of some family weakness or defect. The people who make these inquiries are often unusually intelligent, and not at a'l County Beveridge-for-Senator Club

radical; some of them stand high In the social world. ' M is high idealism and a forwardlooking one which leads them to seek the desired knowledge, and one can only respond to these reauests by telling what is known, or highly probable, in respect to he recurrence of the. family defects in offspring. Whether the conclusions that one is able -to give are always very valuable or not, at least the custom of considering children and their inheritance of family traits is one to be encouraged. Normal persons marry to beget normal children, and it is natural for them to seek information concerning the inheriting of particulars traits." The trouble with this "high idealism" at present is that the science of eugenics is still in its infancy, and euEenists show an alarming tendency to contradict on various important points. There is the question of cousin marriages, for instance. Some authorities, including Dr. Davenport, believe that such marriages -are-always unwise, but there is the case of the Darwins, which .would indicate that other eugenists are in favor of them. Major Leonard Darwin, who is leader of the eugenics movement in England, married a cousin. And so did his father, the Great Charles Darwin. Are Late Marriages Best Another question which is still subject to much contradictory debate among the best eugenics authorities is that of delayed marriages. Some believe that if the parents are not young, the children are apt to be inferior. On the other hand, others cite evidence to show that when the father is over 50 at the birth of a child, the child has from 5 to 10 times the chance of being distinguished that another child would have whose father is 40 or under. "Casper L. Redfield, in studying the breeding of horses, cows, and hens," says one prominent eugenist, "has come to the conclusion that the racewinning colts are the progeny of ma Sisters of Charity : Endorse Father . John's Medicine At the Children's Home in Newburyport, Mass., there are an average of sixty children under the loving care of the Sisters of Charity. In a recent signed statement the Sister in charge said: "We cheerfully endorse Father John's Medicine because in our Home it has become indispensable. We use it, not only for coughs and colds but also as a builder. We tell our friends that we would not be without it. We have used it with great success and find it to have no equal a3 a builder.

ture horses that have by long practice attained high speed before the colts were born. Fischer's statistics of human beings seem to show that, other things being equal, teh children of older parents 'exemplify in a striking way the inheritance of acquired characters.' He claims that the probability of being eminent, when born from a father over 50, is 5 to 10 times that when born from a father of 40 or less." . Even the hitherto accepted theory that acquired characteristics cannot be inherited is now challenged by sev eral modern biologists who quote recent remarkable experiments which seem to prove unquestionably that acquired characteristics can be trans mitted to offspring. Wrong View of Eugenics All agree, however, upon the hopelessness of atempting to regulate hu man mating by legislation, and deplore the popular misconception of eugenics. which credits that science with a design to abolish romance and to introduce cattle-breeding principles into the domestic affairs of human families." On the contrary, love mariages are highly favored by the eugenists. Mar riages for money and other advan tages they denounce, as tending to ward the deterioration of the race, but love marriages are arranged by. Nature, and Nature Is a first-rate eugenist herself. "Nature has provided men with some inborn attraction or repulsions, sympathies and antipathies, which IF KIDNEYS AND BLADDER BOTHER Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and Neutralize Irritatv , ' , ing Acids. Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the-blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it ofter remains to irritate and inflame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an inflammation at the neck of the bladder, obliging . you to seek relief two or three times during the night. TLe sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very . prof use ; again there is difficulty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urination. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome Get about four ounces of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so it iu longer is a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary organs, which then act normally again. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon joice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks wno are subect to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes uo bad effects whatever. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia-water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble. Advertisement.

operate for biological welfare of the race," explains one eugenist. "It Is well known, for' instance, that red headed persons dislike one another and seldom marry persons of their own complexion. It is also noticeable that tall men frequently choose short mates, and etout men prefer slender ones." In spite of some disagreement among the authorities, the knowledge of the inheritance of physical traits io now sufficiently precise, according to Dr. Davenport, that it may be ap-j plied practically to cases of doubtful parentage. "Already.' he says, "the Eugenics Record Office has been asked to answer certain questions about the inheritance of traits in a case of a claimant who maintained that he was the son of a wealthy man who died without heirs. As lawyers get more used to utilizing the advantages of knowledge for evidence, it is probable that eugenical knowledge will be more and more called upon.. "The transmission of special characteristics which develop into talent and genius," Dr. Davenport further ex plained," is now being studied by 200 field workers connected with the la boratory at Cold Spring Harbor. Thia laboratory, by the way, is connected with the Camegie Institution at Washington. Much interesting light is being shed by this research on the manner in which musical, literary or artistic talent is handed down from generation to generation." r . You cannot make any eugenist believe, of course, that a genius of any great man could spring from poor ancestry not even Abraham Lincoln. Recent investigation of his lineage, indeed, they assert, tends to show that, in spite of the shilftlessness of his own father, he really came of a splendid line. REP.
