RIIEUMATISM

altos: POET 5A9; i1- is PAINFUL. our MAKES IGOOD wzarusa PROP‘ Here.

o+++oe~

Walt Mason, whomakes his liv- ing by "wrltingl a daily "prose poem" which is read by some mil- lions of people, a-vtimo ago was asked by the editor ofThe Ameri- can Magazine to write an article of an uplifting character for that publication. He replied that he was suffering from rheumatism and was not in the mood to do any uplift work. The editor suggested brilliantly that he might write on the subject of rheumatism, sin‘: the “prose poet" thereupon produced an account of his own personal ex- periences with that malady, which, while it is not exactly in the same class with the standard "uplift" literature of commerce. is at least as edifylng, and in the end will probably do just as much good. Walt states in the course of his re- marks that he has tried 9,584 cures for rheumatism, and, if he liyes long enough, expects to try that many more. “l have no doubt," he says, "than some o-fvthem would have made good hair-restorers, and others might have been used‘ as substitutes for tabasco sauce." He admits that a few of them relieved the pain for a time, but ln his opinion this is even worse than if no relief had been afforded; be- cause, as he observes sagely. "Any. thing that merely relieves the pain is had, for when the pain comes back. as it surely will, it will make up for lost time, and there will be a haze of blue smoke around the afflicted joints." Walt Mason be- Sillﬂ ilis story .by saying that be- fore he became afflicted with rheu- matism, which happened‘ five years ago, he had never been sick. This was discouraging, because all his v lends had suffered from some- hing or other and -were forever

‘talking about it, while he wag left
