The New Curative Method.

The doctors, In dealing with the body,
are coming to the conclusion that the
great remedy for disease Is the nour.
ishment of life. They still sometimes
attack disease directly, as when they
prescribe an antidote for poison.
They sometimes save life by lessenlng
life, as when they amputate diseased
limb and the cripple lives, though al
ways cripple. But for the most part
hygiene is taking the place Of drugs.
Nature is nursed and cared for, and
drugs are used, If at all, only to
strengthen Nature and add to her recu-
perative power. Formerly, for exam
pie, the consumptiye was shut up in
warm room, kept away from draughts,
guarded against the cold, and often, II
not ordinarily, insufficlently nourished
either on gruels by the doctors coun-
sci, or on insufficient food for want of
sufficient appetite. Now the consump-
tive goes to the Adirondacks, wraps up
in furs, sits upon the porch In all
weathers with the thermometer at
zero, takes prescribed exercise, sleeps,
rests, and eats heartily. No attempt Is
made by drugs directly to attack the
baclli which are eating away the pa
TENTS life. The doctor simply attempts
to nourish Nature and make her strong,
and Nature herself, as the microscope
demonstrates, surrounds the bacilli
with tissues Of her own producing, I'M
prisons them in solitary cells, and SO
makes the man immune from the en-
envy which assails his life.-The Out

Few cla.. Distinction. In Siberia.

Few Class DISTINCTIONS In siberia.
There is not much caste or class dis
tinction in Siberia, and the few social
rules are lax. The Russian Siberians
mingle freely with the native tribes.
and their customs and habits have, in
consequence, been considerably modi-
fed. l have often seen groups Of boys
playing on the street where the Kirghiz
or Buriat boys were mixed indiscrim-
inately with the Russians. From their
dress or language it was impossible to
distinguish them, for both costume and
Language were strange mixture. Only
the peculiar features of the native or
the more slovenly appearance Of the
Russian would betray the slightest diff
ference. 1t is an old saying that you
"scratch Russian and find Tartar. I"
1t might be more appropriately said
at least, of the Russian peasant-that
you scrape the dirt off a Russian and
find clean Tartar, for the latter are
decidedly the more cleanly.-St. Mich

The largest known moth is the giant
atlas, native Of China, the wings of

The falling of leaf Is brought about
by the formation of a thin layer Of veg
etable tissue at the point where the leaf
stem Joins the branch of the tree. After
the leaf ceases to make starch and su-
gar for the tree the tissue begins to
grow, and actually cuts the leaf. The
falling Of ripe fruit is dependent upon
the same process.
Many insects can fly faster than

since his confinement had thought much on
the subject.
The doctor was very proud of Johns
cooking and one day invited a few friends
in for dinner. John was in his element
and prepared an elaborate meal. Among
the many delicacies for dessert ordered by
the doctors wife was an angel cake Johns
chief culinary success. Great was the con-

the amusement of the guests when John
bobbed into the room carrying huge,

Life Saved by $wamp-Root.
The Great Discovery That Cures Kid
ney and Bladder Troubles.

Statistics prove that more people are
brought to the grave by diseases of the
kidneys and bladder than by any other
disease.
For many years medical science has
been trying to discover some remedy
that would positively overcome these
dangerous troubles.
But not until recently was the discov-
cry made. Doctor Kilmer, the eminent
physician and scientist, after years of
study and research, and after test on
test that never varied in the grand re-
sultb announced the discovery of Swamp
Root, which has proven itself a most
wonderful cure for all diseases of the
kidneys and bladder.
While Swa1np-Root has proven such
remarkable success in curing kidney and
bladder diseases, it has also proved
equally invaluable in the cure of blood
diseases, rheumatism, liver and stomach
troubles and in the regulat ton and cure
of all uric acid troubles.
Swamp-Root has been tested in 50
many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to
purchase relief, and has proved so sue
cessful in every case, that a special ar
rangement has been made by which all
readers of this paper, who have not al
ready tried it, may have sample bottle
sent absolutely free by mail. Also a
book telling more about Swamp-Root
and containing some of the thousands

ceived from men and women who owe
their good health, in fact, their very
lives, to the wonderful curative prop

A CheaD Hotel.

A number of Minneapolis men are
said to be considering the advisability
of erecting a hotel of from three to five
hundred rooms. to be conducted on the
some plan as the Mills house of New
York, under the auspices of the Union
Mission. The hotel, if arranged for,
will be divorced from the mission, so
that the people taking lodging in it
will not feel that they are objects of
charity. AS such a building would be
very plain, both inside and outside,
and as the rooms would. be small, it is
thought that the cost would not be
very great. It is estimated that the
cost of the structure ought not to be in
excess of $4,000.
