I am a primary care physician. There are so many paid apps to manage health. But this app is simple, gives results, and help my patients with complete privacy. I always "prescribe" this free app to my patients trying to have a better handle on their blood glucose, blood pressure, weight, and sleep.
Arrived at Foligno, he found that his great enemy was at sanctuary inthe Convent of Olivet, biting his nails in a red fume there. Hiddenbehind spires of cypress, Olivet stood outside the walls, a sun-dyedwhite building deep under brown eaves. Cesare, it was reported, wasquite alone with his moods, now consumed by fidgety remorse for what hemight have lost in his brother's blood, now confident and inclined toblusterous hilarity, now shuddering under an obsession of nerves. In anyguise he was dangerous, but worst of all when the black fit of suspicionwas upon him. So he now seemed; for being told who waited upon him, herefused point-blank to see anybody. Amilcare, at the door, heard his[Pg 152]"Vattene, vattene! Non seccami!" ("Out, out! Don't pester me!") rockingdown the dim passages of the house; and Molly, whom this sudden newexpedition had bereft of what wit she had, turned pale to hear theroaring beast.

Will it be believed that the infatuate Master Cino spent the rest of thenight in a rapture of poetry? It was not voiced poetry, could never havebeen written down; rather, it was a torrent of feeling upon which hefloated out to heaven, in which he bathed. It thrilled through everyfibre of his body till he felt the wings of his soul fluttering madly tobe free. This was the very ecstasy of love, to suffer the extremetorment for the beloved! Ah, he was smitten deep enough at last; ifpoetry were to be won through bloody sweat, the pains of the rack, thecrawling anguish of the fire, was not poetry his own? Yes, indeed; whatDante had gained through exile and the death of Monna Beatrice was hisfor another price, the price of his own blood. He forgot the physicalagony of his scorched mouth, forgot the insult, forgot everything butthis ineffable achievement, this desperate essay, this triumph,[Pg 244] thisanointing. Cino, Cino, martyr for Love! Hail, Cino, crowned with thypain! He could have held up his bleeding heart and worshipped it. Surelythis was the greatest hour of his life.
I notice that many opponents of immigration deliberately create the material for their objection. They imagine the devastation caused by the inrush of multitudinous Chinese, for example, but with no whit of knowledge as to whether such hordes would really come. A Chinese scholar long in this country tells me there are absolutely no grounds for these terrors.It is almost too easy to show that these imagined evils of immigration have up to date been mistaken. But, before showing this, look one moment still at the problem from the possible good of the world (or at least of the nations) rather than from the supposed exclusive good of the United States.Next year, a possible 225,000 of these immigrants or children of immigrants may return to their native countries, most of them on visits, some to stay. A large part of these has been successful.They take back with them, on the whole, what the communities from which they came most need, the kind of courage, increased efficiency, the enlarged political and social outlook which are making themselves more and more felt.Our immigration not only lightens the struggle for existence steadily and permanently in those countries, but it tends as consistently to raise the standard of living there.As ocean transportation cheapens and develops, these reactions grow in such ratio that they are becoming the most powerful of world influences for good on this larger human side.There are in Europe few more stimulating experiences than to see, as in scores of places in Italy, communities transformed and keyed to a higher standard wholly by the influence of returning emigrants. At thousands of points throughout Europe this influence steadily deepens.if(typeof ez_ad_units!='undefined')ez_ad_units.push([[336,280],'ggarchives_com-large-mobile-banner-2','ezslot_8',141,'0','0']);__ez_fad_position('div-gpt-ad-ggarchives_com-large-mobile-banner-2-0');Eastern EuropeIn Eastern Europe, there are multitudes of debt-burdened peasants set free every year by our immigrants. Mortgages are paid off, old debts canceled, houses and lands restored.We will here waste no time on that shabby superstition that immigrants who send their money out of the country are no good. Strictly from our own point of view, we get the full equivalent of every dollar they earn. That world-fact is undoubted to be kept in mind.If it can be shown that this far-off good is won at the expense of our civilization, that our standards are lowered through and because of benefits to others, we must yield to the first law of self-preservation, hold fast to our own advantages, though outsiders are excluded.if(typeof ez_ad_units!='undefined')ez_ad_units.push([[250,250],'ggarchives_com-leader-2','ezslot_15',138,'0','0']);__ez_fad_position('div-gpt-ad-ggarchives_com-leader-2-0');The Unfit Should Not ComeBefore defining my doubts upon this policy of exclusion, it should be said with precision that we are all in agreement on one point; namely, that the unfit should not come.I deal a little later with this term "unfit. Meantime, if it is to be maintained that, barring the unfit, immigration has been and is still immeasurably a greater good than are the evils attaching to it, good for us as it is good for the world, to what proofs are we to point?The Case Against Excluding All ImmigrantsLet me give first not proofs, but extremely suggestive evidence. How much earlier I do not know, but since 1787, we have had an unvarying succession of forebodings as to the coming evils of our immigration.Almost never do they seem really to have come, as feared, but they are always lurking there in the future. I asked several genuine restrictionists among the delegates at the recent Immigration Conference in this city.
Many were huddled upon village carts and the wagons of the rescuing artillery. They clung convulsively to some poor household chattel, the one remaining bond with the ruined home.In their ignorant fright they refused to be lodged within the barracks and fortresses; for had they not seen roofs crashing beneath the weight of ashes and heard the cries of their buried neighbors, and had not the very market in Naples fallen in, killing or wounding the tradespeople at their stalls? But they were willing to go to the royal palace, wide open to receive them.That undoubtedly, like the churches, was under God's protection; and they knew the King loved them and wanted to help them, for with his beautiful Queen he had pressed forward into the hell of darkness and fire where all others feared to go, and together they had stood the rain of scorching stones, and had their blood drawn and their eyes burnt by the ashes and cinders.We embarked on the ship "Romanic" of the White Star Line, which, the captain told me, was short of hands because many of his best sailors were from the Vesuvian shores, and had visited their homes while the ship was in port.At the appointed hour these men had returned, and, weeping, implored him to leave them, for their villages were buried, their families had disappeared, and they would seek for their own, alive or dead.The full emigrant capacity of the "Romanic" is 1,700. We were 150 short, for that number of Greeks, owing to the ashes of Vesuvius reaching across the Mediterranean as far as Montenegro, had been landed at Leghorn and could not join the ship in time, as, the wind having veered, the railway had been buried.
In emigration as in commercial interchange, reciprocity is necessary. The United States laws now require that Europe shall furnish its physically and morally best for its immigration market, guaranteed by a passport and a medical certificate. The educational test can be added if desired.But education requires patience, and such a law should only become active after allowing the necessary time to prepare for it.Thus no interruption of the building, digging, and delving which North America's present significant period of development requires would occur, owing to a lack of the foreign laborers, men of iron muscle, willing to bear any discomfort and give all their strength for money, thrifty, sober young men, who may send the guerdon home to support their families, and, when enough besides has been accumulated, generally bring them hither, contributing a physically and morally sound, prolific though ignorant sub-soil upon which to found your national institutions.The illiteracy and ignorance your school system is more than calculated to eliminate in the next generation; and, as the immigrant mass is composed chiefly of young married people and their offspring, what can a decade of ignorance in a one-hundred and fiftieth part of your population count for as against the solid qualities furnished by this stratum?In these last twenty-five years, the exchange from American to Italian money has fallen from 30 percent, premium to par, and we recognize that an equal percentage of Italy's prosperity is due to the American money earned by Italian emigrants as to American pleasure-seekers and art seekers who temporarily inhabit our Italy, and enjoy the same privileges as her citizens. But it is well to remember we treat here of percentages.All nations travel in Italy, and the laborers in Italy emigrate to wherever scarcity of hands calls them. What is the money you have given to us through the pleasure-seekers compared with the renewed health, the mental breadth, the art beauties, endowed with which these have returned home?What, on the other hand. are the savings, almost the blood money, one might say, which have been wrested from the greed of boardinghouse keepers, padrone, and so-called bankers, and from the graft of contractors, by the fathers, brothers, or sons, and sent back to their families, as compared with the builder railroads which girdle your continent, the magnificent water-works which make your homes luxurious and salubrious, the public and educational institutions in which you take just pride?Let us accept Mr. Graham Brooks's statement that this is a free country, and that the money which goes to Italy is a simple exchange for the Italian brawn and muscle which you have used up here, a just remuneration for that selection you have instituted by law, and any limitation on its use would betray the spirit of your Constitution.If you imported steel to build your bridges, you would have to pay for that steel without requiring the manufacturer to leave its guerdon in the United States. As you have iron and need muscle instead to build your bridges, you must pay for the muscle, and let its earnings go where its possessor wishes. 2ff7e9595c
