woMENs WELCOME WISDOM; WORLDS WOES woRsrED

From the Houston (Tex.J Daily Post "How do you doT' or ''How are you?" Is almost invariably the American greeting. Next to the weather. the discussion of the most common topic of an American conversation.
 Why Is this?
 Simply because we recognize health as an essential and important factor. and yet are most apt to neglect it, and consequtntly by our own fault. some of us are sick all of the time, and all of us are sick some of the time So we talk about it when we meet, and commiserate each other on re- turning illness, or congratulate each other on being alive after another attack. Christian scientists are partly right. They taboo all talk about bad health. To ''enjoy poor health" was our grand mothers greatest blessing.
 Our children, let us hope, if not ourselves, will live to forget that i'll health is possi- ble; and this can come about only by first getting well, and then keeping so.
 How?
 Some Houston ladies have found the way and the means to get and keep well-as ladies usually are first in finding out the best things-and are willing to assist others in the right way by publishing letters over their own signatures stating the facts as they have found them.
 Such an act is a public benefaction, and we gladly lend our columns to it's further ance
 Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic Is the means to the desired end. It cures. Makes you well. The ladies of Houston say this. They say further what is more to the purpose-that it keeps you well. That's very important. One dose doesn't cure, nor does after neg lect of the remedy entitle one to remain cured, any more than one hearty, satis- flying meal will cure hunger forever. The ladies say, "Take the remedy-you will ac- complish the cure of your malady; then continue its use with some degree of regu- larity, and there will be no recurrence of your trouble to torture and torment" At the instigation of certain we'll known ladies in Houston. reporter was sent out to interview the ladies whose names ap- pear herewith attached to their several communications, with the end in view of furthering the good health of our citizens, ages. None are too young or too old to obtain from Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic, the ladies say.
 The first call was upon Mrs. J. T. Coul- ter, of 1110 Bell avenue. After telling of the merits of the remedy that makes and keeps you well, she subscribed her name to the following:
