CONSUMPTION.
TCoNrINUED.1

Extracts from DR.. Hunters Lectures on
| the Progress of Medical Science i'll Lung
Diseases)
To cure the lungs after the baciili germs
have attacked them and set up Consumption
is one of the greatest achievements of mod
ern medical science. 1t has only been done,
so far as know or believe, by my special
treatment. No reputable physician now pre-
tends that any combination OF stomach med
icaton will drive the Consumption germs
out of the lungs. Hypodermic injections of
koch's lymph, EdiSon's asepSln, goats blood,
asses serum and other nostrums of that ilk
! are equally worthless, and more harmful.
Such blood poisoning experiments, instead
of curing the lung disease, make it worse,
and serve only to hasten its progress to
fatal issue.
Lung diseases are durable only by local
treatment of the lungs, and inhalation is
the only means by which local treatment
can be applied to the lungs. Inhalation of
antiseptic germicides was first discovered by
me and successfully applied in consump-
ton and other lung diseases. l am the
Father of the doctrine that consumption is
local disease of the lungs, and the founder
OF its local treatment by medi ;ated air in
halations. This method of treatment brought
the first ray of rational hope to consump-
tlves. 1t is the only possible way in which
medicines can be introduced into the air
passages and lungs. All lung remedies must
be reduced to a state of gas or vapor and
breathed, because no solid or fluid medicine
can be introduced into an air cavity, with
out danger to life. The lungs are an air
cavity, and by the air and through the air
every curative action by medicine can be
produced ON the seat of every form of lung
disease My antiseptic and healing reme-
dies enter into and form component part
of the air the patient breathes.
Since my Introduction of this scientific
and successful method of treating lung dis
eases many imitation inhaling instruments
and nostrums for inhalation have been
brought out, in some instances by persons
without any medical knowledge or expert
ence of lung cases. The idea seems to be
that anything inhaled must be a remedy.
What will cure the lungs when inhaled de-
ponds on the physicians knowledge of lung
diseases, his experience of the action of
remedies when breathed, and his careful
adaptation of them to each case. 1t has
taken lifetime to learn what is best for
each form and varying conditions Of lung
diseases, and no man can adopt my practice
or apply it with success without having my
experience to guide him. 1t is the medicines
that cure, not the mere act of inhaling them.
| You might inhale what could do you no
| good or harm instead of good, and call that
| inhalation treatment.

Mary.

Read at the 25th anniversary of the al
perintendency of Miss Mary Chamberlain c
the Girls Rescue Home, Philadelphia
PENN
Long peaceful years have rolled away
In sunshine and in sorrow,
But still we hail each present day
Bright symbol of tomorrow,
And still together "hold the FORT"
However fortunes vary,
And join to-day in love and praise
For our own sweet-souled Mary.
A quarter century's years have fed,
And gilded life with beauty,
And patient toll has glory shed
Around each homely duty,
But still, as in the years agone,
She proves our household treasure,
And gives the fullness of her life
To heap the rounded measure.
Keep her, oh Father, in Thy care!
Our steadfast human fairy,
And on Thy books inscribe in gold
The gentle name of Mary.
And when the records all are closed,
The last words fifty spoken,
May heavenly angels lead her on
Where ties are never broken.

Bottled Up!

Whether in the form of pill powder
or liquid, the doctors prescription for
blood diseases is always the same
mercury or potash. These drugs bottle
up the poison and dry it up in the
system, but they also dry up the marrow
in the bones at the same time.
The suppleness and elasticity of the
Joints give way to a stiffness, the rack
ing pains of rheumatism The form
gradually bends, the bones ache, while
decrepitude and helplessness prema-
turely take possession of the body, and
it is but short step to a pair of
crutches. Then comes falling of
the hair and decay of the bones,-a con-
1ition truly horrible.

Consul Birkner at Nuremberg Bavaria, for
a special descriptive article and half-tone
cuts of the main buildings and the birds

Another special article on the exposition
has been sent to the firm of Johann Falls

There are only a few of the most recent

LOUISIANA Is MOVING RAPIDLY.
Stntc Bureau OF Agriculture Getting
Stnte EX hihit Together.

The Louisiana State Bureau of Agriculture
is taking energetic steps to have that state
well represented at the exposition. Louisiana
was the first state to take official action
through its legislature recognizing the eX-
position and providing for a state exhibit.
The matter was brought to the attention Of
the legislature too late in the session for
an appropriation to be made, but resolution
was unanimously adopted directing the State
Bureau of Agriculture to make an exhibit
and pledging the necessary funds. The legis-
ature has mot had a meeting since that
time, but the bureau is carrying out its
instructions and hs making a collection OF
the states resources that will be brought to
Omaha at the proper time Major j. G. Lee,
commissioner Of agriculture and immigration,
and DR.. w. c. Stubbs director of experiment
stations have been directed to come to
Omaha in the uear future and make the
necessary arrangements for space, ETC., for
the exhibit. Major Lee writes to the De-
partment OF Exhibits that he and Dr. StuDts
will start for Omaha February or 3. He
says active preparations are now being made
for the state exhibit which be says will be
a most creditabie one.

DR.. Fridtjoi Nansen has surprised the peo-
pie Of America by announcing that he will
not fll his contracts to deliver lectures In
the west. He was to have given two lectures
in Omaha next TUESDAY, but on account of
his absolute refusal to make the rest of the
100 lectures that he had contracted for the
ReGQath LyCeum bureau OF Boston that had
managed his American tour has been OBJ
liged to cancel the engagements
No explanation has been given except that
lecturng is distastefu to DR.. Nansen and
that he has not a sufficient appreciation Of
tho rights of other people. The trip to the
leading eastern cities has been remarkably
successful aud profitable, and that makes II
cDpear all the more strang' mat the Nor

from a trip to Chicago and Milwaukee in
the interest of the exposition. In Mil
waukee Mr.. Rosewater attended a meeting Of
the Wisconsin Exposition commission, which
was presided over by eX-Mayor Koch of Mil
waukee, chairman of the commission. Mr..
Rosewater made short talk on exposition
matters and says he found the members of
the commission quite enthusiastic over the
progress which has been made in the en-
terprise and in their state. The commission
has received bids for the construction of the
Wisconsin building and is about to let the
contract for it. Excellent headway has been
made in the work OF raising funds for the
building and state exhibit. A striking feature
Of the Wisconsin building will be a large
aquarium which will occupy all Of the central
portion of the main floor and will be used
for making large fish exhibit
In Chicago Mr.. Rcsewater said he had an
interview with the officials of the Pullman
Palace Car company. They promised to send
to the exposition a fully equipped train of
Pullman cars, consisting Of five vestibuled
cars costing $2400 900. These cars will be
fitted with all modern improvements and will
be decorated in the NEST lavish manner. In
contrast with these palaces the company will
also send to the exposition the hrst Pullman
car, thereby showing the contrast between
the first efforts of the company and the
latest productions. These cars Will require

Make an Exceptional Display.

superintendent jackson Hopes Ia
Make an Exceptional Display.
State superintendent W. r. Jackson, in
charge of the state educational exhibit, is
sending out a second circular to the educa-
tors in the state He announces the fact
that the railroads have offered to trans
port all educational exhibits to and from the
exposition free OF charge, and says that with
free space and free transportation the edu-
cational exhibit of Nebraska schools should
be exceptionally fine. He advises the coun-
ties to make exhibits of work in which
they excel and urges the smaller schools to
not attempt to make an exhibit of work
in all the grades, All public schools making
application for space before February will
be granted space free of charge, and the
exhibits will be taken in charge by force
under the direction of the state supern-
tendent and put In position in the exposition
building. Prof. Jackson suggests that it
will be well for counties to send one or
more persons to Omaha to put the exhibit
in place, In order TO assure individuality of
the county exhibit. but he says that this Is
not absolutely necessary, as he will have
men for that purpose in case counties do not
adopt this suggestion.
Prof, Jackson is also sending out letters
of inquiry to the private schools OF the
state asking for certain information re-
quested by the Nebraska Exposition commits
sion at it's last meeting, relating to exhibits
by these schools, Lieutenant Governor Har-
rls appeared before the commission to ask
that the state furnish space for exhibits by
private schools and in accordance
with the instructions OF the com
mission, Prof Jackson is gathering informa-
tion TO learn how many of thess schools will
agree TO make creditable exhibits providing
the state furnishes the necessary space.
