"pooToRINa OLD TIME"
A Striking Picture-A Revival OF Ola
Time Simplicties.

In one OF llarpor's issues is given very
fine illustration Of Roberts celebrated paint
ing, known as 'Doctoring Old Time" IL
represents typical old-timer, with his bel
lows, blowing the dust from an ancient
clock, with its cords and weights carefully
secured. One of these clocks in this genera.
ton is appreciated only as u rare relic.

Of the title used for another purpose, -"Old

ccrtaining why people in our grcat-grand-
fathers time enjoyed u health and physical
vigor so seldom found in the present genera
ton. They now think they have secured
the secret or secrets. They find that the
prevailing opinion that then existed, that
Mature has remedy for every existing
disorder" was true, and acting under this
belief, our grandparents used the common
herbs and plants. Continual trcsspass upon
the forest domain, has made these herbs
less abundant and has driven them further
! from civilization, until they have been dis
