said the doctor, turning from the patient
with a worried look, "there might be some
hope. If she could be made to speak we
might make her realize her condition and
get her to make an effort to save herself"
He turned to the husband, who knelt by
the bed, his haggard face buried in the white
spread.
"You understand her so WE'LL" said the
physician, almost irritably. Cant you say
something or do something that will arouse
her from this stupor? Isn't there anything
you could do that would awaken her.
A look of hope lighted the husbands pale
face. He rose without word and left the
house.
It was midnight. The watchers by the
bedside heard the rain pelting against the
window panes and the wind whistling
around the corners Of the old home. A step
sounded on the gravel walk outside. In an
other second there was the click of latch

the front door. The restless turning of the
sick woman's head upon the pillow stopped
suddenly. She seemed to listen.
The door opened and unsteady steps came
along the hail. The husband entered the

the chairs. His wife's eyes were open now.

THE NEW METHOD OF
BLOOD PURIFYING.
What the New Discovery in Medical
Science Has Accomplished.
The Symptoms Show That Your
Blood is OF
The EMINENT SPECIALISTS FREE OFFER TO ALL
READERS OF THIS PAPER.

For a great many years it has been
the custom for sick people to say: 'My
blood is out of order. It needs purify
ing. feel all used up. Ny skin needs
clearing. My brain feels tired.''
They are right, but do they act right?
They generally go and get a laxative
(bowel cleaner) to purify their blood.
Does their blood run through their
bowels?
Science has to-day furnished proofs
that all the purifying that your blood
needs, in fact, all that can be done,
must be done by your kidneys.
All the blood in your body passes
through your kidneys every three min
utes.
The kidneys strain or filter out the i'm
purities of the blood that's their work.
Purifying your blood is not a ques-
ton of taking laxative or physic.
Does your blood run through your
bowels?
What the bowel-cleaner does is to
throw out the poisons confined in your
bowels ready for absorption into your
blood, but the poisons which are already
in your blood, causing your present
sickness 1t saves there.
There is no other way of purifying
your blood except by means of your kid
neys.
That is why bowel-cleaners fail to do
their work-they fail to help the kid
neys.
When you are sick, then, no matter
what you think the name of your dis.
ease is, the first thing you should do is
to afford aid to your kidneys by using

A TALK ABOUT COLDS.
They Are Caught Most Frequently in
Places Where the Ventilation
aA' II Detective.

The old-fashioned cold has been GUST
ed to some extent from it's former posi-
ton in domestic medicine by the mod
ern influenza. An attack of influenza
is a much better excuse for non-atteI1d-
ance at the Office or shop than cold,
the latter being commonly regarded as
an accommodation bill drawn by lazi-
ness or idleness. There is unquestion-
ably such a thing as a cold that is to
say deviation from health obviously
consequent upon, and due to, exposure
to cold and damp. The initial sensa-
ton of cold is followed by more or less
pronounced physical discomfort, pos
sibly by more definite signs and symp-
toms of bronchitis or other disease
frigore. With that prediction for in
exorable logic which characterizes the
undiscerning, the average citizen re-
CARDS every illness beginning with a
chill as a cold, losing sight of the fact
that there are chills i. e., sensations
of cold-which are in nowise due to the
action of the low temperatures. This
vulgar error has been productive Of Sc
rious consequences in more than one di-
rection.
Nowadays, and rightly, we are all for
fresh air. We fear no foe save the
ubiquitous microbe, and we fight him
with fire and poison, with results that
amply suffice to justify this war out
rance. It may, on the other hand, be

etc,-to incautious exposure, whereas
the chill merely heralded a rise of tenn
perature incidental to an outburst of
tuberculous disease.

people to be told that a, chill is a sign

ARCH LECTURE.
DESIGNED AND WRITTEN ESPECIALLY FOR THIS PAPER.

In some districts there is great de-
mand for five or six room cottages
with rooms all on the ground floor.
Houses of this class have many adWan-
tages, especially in cases where there
are old people or invalids in the fam
lily. In such cases the passing up and
downstairs is the greatest trial about
keeping the house. They are not the
least expensive houses to build, the
same amount of floor space being con-
sidered, but often the additional con-
venience of snch an arrangement well

want a bathroom the room shown for
that purpose could be converted into
an outside closet and the adjoining
porch somewhat enlarged. Construc-
tionally the house ranks among the
more costly, the materials being of
good quality throughout, experience
having proven that good substantial

PRODUCTS FROM WOOD.
verted Into Alcohol, Acetate OF
Lime and Wood Tars.

It is not generally known that over
60 per cent. of wood may be converted
into liquid. The strongest hydraulic
pressure would not squeeze one-half of
one per cent. of moisture from dry
wood, but by putting the same material
into an iron retort and converting it
into charcoal by means of heat, the
gases and smoke, to the extent of fully
IS per cent. of the weight of the wood,
may be condensed into liquid called py-
roligneous acid, and from it are OBJ
tanned wood alcohol, acetate of lime
and wood tars. A cord of wood weigh
ing 1000 pounds produced about 1850
pounds of pyroligneous acid and 700
pounds of charcoal. The pyroligneous
acid from one cord of wood produces
nine gallons of 81 per cent. crude wood
alcohol 200 pounds. of acetate of lime
and about rs gallons of tar, besides IS
bushels of charcoal. After the pyro.
ligneous acid is neutralized with lime
the wood alcohol is distilled off, the
lime holding the active acid in solution.
After the separation of the wood spirit
the remaining liquid is boiled down in
open pans of sugar, which is dried and
becomes the acetate of lime of COM
merce. Acetate of lime is used for maxi
ing acetic acid. Fullyst hree-ffff ths Of
all the wood alcohol and acetate Of lime
produced in the world are made in the
United States. Fully $4,000 acres per
year are cleared for this purpose. Wood
alcohol affords a perfect substitute for
grain alcohol for manufacturing and
mechanical purposes, and at less than
one-third the cost. It's used principally
as solvent in the making of shellao
varnish, in making celluloid, photo
graphic paper, etc. Il makes many
beautiful dye tints. It is antiseptio
